Chapter 116
After this major operation, the Rocks Pirates prepared to digest the fruits of their victory.
Maintaining the operation of a large pirate crew is extremely difficult — especially one like the Rocks Pirates with tens of thousands of elite members. The annual expenses alone are astronomical, not to mention the countless underworld Dark Emperors constantly leeching off the Rocks Pirates like parasites. All of this prevented the Rocks Pirates from expanding further.
This was also the reason Rocks went to war with the Lion King Pirates — after all, the New World could not accommodate so many large pirate crews.
On a luxurious pirate ship carrying the Aitrias Pirates, at this moment, Vilin was joyfully organizing all the Devil Fruits in his collection.
Vilin took out every Devil Fruit stored in his body and placed them on the table, putting them one by one into a safe.
The first layer held Logia-type Devil Fruits. Currently there was only one: the Rumble-Rumble Fruit (Natural – Sound Thunder Fruit).
The second layer held Zoan-type Devil Fruits. At this moment, the Dog-Dog Fruit – Mythical Zoan – Anubis Model lay quietly on top.
The third layer held Paramecia-type Devil Fruits. Among them were placed: Heat-Heat Fruit, Cold-Cold Fruit, Bacteria-Bacteria Fruit, Pressure-Pressure Fruit, Corn-Corn Fruit, Thought-Thought Fruit, Ruby-Ruby Fruit, Mochi-Mochi Fruit, Sticky-Sticky Fruit, Biscuit-Biscuit Fruit, Memory-Memory Fruit, and the newly obtained Float-Float Fruit, Glint-Glint Fruit, and Book-Book Fruit.
These were all the Devil Fruits Vilin had collected so far.
After putting the safe back into his body, Vilin took out a Devil Fruit that shone with a ruby-like gem luster. He planned to give this Devil Fruit to Shana, the tall long-legged tribe girl. There was no helping it — with Shana's over-four-meter height combined with this Ruby-Ruby Fruit, she would be a perfect front-line tank.
"Shana, you're here."
Seeing Shana walk in, Vilin showed a gentle smile and handed the Ruby-Ruby Fruit on the table to her.
Seeing that Vilin was actually giving her a Devil Fruit, Shana's expression froze for a moment.
Then she asked nothing and directly peeled it and ate it in one bite.
After the Devil Fruit entered her stomach, Shana quickly felt a special power appear inside her body. As Shana activated this power, her entire body was soon covered in a layer of red gem armor.
Feeling the hard armor covering her body, a satisfied look appeared on Shana's face.
She couldn't help excitedly pulling Vilin into her arms, continuously pressing her softness against Vilin's face.
Vilin enjoyed the "welfare" Shana was giving him.
Looking at Shana, he felt his own forces were basically taking shape.
As long as he continued to train Annie, Fiona, Haidi, Elria, Fati, Hathaway, Xiao Wu, Shana, Annie, Ellie, and all his women, his forces would essentially be complete.
The remaining time was just waiting for his children to grow up.
"You have to train even harder."
Vilin rubbed her tight pretty face with a gentle expression.
"Mmm~" "I will become even stronger!"
Looking at her determined expression, Vilin rubbed her hair.
"I believe in you!"
After sending her off, Vilin excitedly ran toward the room where Rouge was staying.
Today was Rouge's turn.
Pushing open Rouge's door, Vilin slipped inside.
Seeing Rouge wearing black silk pajamas waiting for him, Vilin immediately pounced.
However, he was blocked by a snow-white jade foot.
Seeing Vilin acting so shamelessly, Rouge couldn't help twisting his waist.
"Giggle giggle giggle!" "You'd better serve this palace well!"
Seeing Rouge dare to tease him, Vilin directly overpowered her with a domineering move and pinned her down.
Vilin stroked Rouge's smooth skin, unable to get enough of it.
Rouge felt waves of tingling sensation on her body, her pretty face instantly turning rosy.
Looking at the seductive charm in Rouge's eyes and brows, Vilin's body also gradually became burning hot. He reached out and pulled Rouge into his arms, exploring the mysteries of life with her.
In the first half of the New World, on a vast blue sea area, the battle between the Navy and the Golden Pirates had already lasted seven days.
As time passed, the Navy, with more powerful fighters, gradually gained the upper hand.
They had also killed quite a number of Golden Pirates.
Of course, the Navy also lost some Commodores and Captains under the Golden Pirates' siege.
On a heavily damaged pirate ship, intense fighting was erupting at this moment.
A burly figure covered entirely in Armament Haki was continuously smashing his fists rapidly into the already heavily damaged golden giant.
With every punch he landed, a deep fist imprint was left on the golden giant's body.
Ubel, wrapped inside the golden giant's body, felt his stamina rapidly draining.
This made a worried look appear on his face.
Because he had already discovered that his Haki was far inferior to Steel Bone Kong's.
Even when he used Conqueror's Haki entanglement, it was still blocked by the opponent's plain and simple punch.
While both sides were locked in fierce combat, Tsuru suddenly flew toward Kong's battlefield using Moon Step.
As Tsuru appeared in the battlefield, Kong quickly noticed her figure.
He immediately used Soru and appeared beside Tsuru.
Tsuru saw Kong and immediately lowered her voice:
"Fleet Admiral Kong! Our scouts have spotted Blite's fleet entering the first half of the New World."
Hearing Tsuru's words, Kong couldn't help frowning. A conflicted expression appeared on his face.
Because he was confident that in two more days he could defeat Ubel.
But thinking of Blite's strength, he quickly gave up the idea of continuing to tangle with the opponent.
Kong decided to pull back his forces and wait for the next opportunity.
After making up his mind, Kong shouted loudly to the Navy:
"All Navy, listen up!" "Immediately withdraw from the battlefield and head to the newly established G-34 base for garrison duty!"
Hearing Kong's order, all the Navy officers immediately began covering the elite Navy soldiers' retreat.
Soon the Navy stepped on Moon Step and jumped onto their respective warships.
Kong watched the Navy soldiers begin an orderly retreat under the officers' command and showed a satisfied smile on his face.
On two other pirate ships, Sengoku and Zephyr, who were fiercely fighting Bario and Thornton, also heard Kong's order.
They looked at their opponents with lingering expressions.
