Chapter 221 - Chapter 220: Intelligence Disclosure, family token Fragments

"240,000 reward points, truly expensive."

Whitebeard nodded with satisfaction, feeling the Scarlet Crystal Core condensed in his heart.

But then he thought about how a bloodline cost as much as four small islands, which pained him.

"It's alright."

Fang Yi comforted him, "Even if the small islands are sold, the Whitebeard Pirates can still be stationed there as long as they pay reward points monthly."

The islands, transformed by the Reincarnation Game, were like an expansion of the Pirate Newbie Village.

Players were not forbidden from appearing.

However, they were deemed the Game Merchant's private territory, and being stationed there required paying reward points.

"If I have enough reward points in the future, can I buy the islands back?"

After all, for the Whitebeard Pirates to pay rent for islands they had been stationed on for many years made him a bit awkward.

It would be hard to explain to his sons.

"Of course, you can."

Fang Yi nodded, "To buy an island, you need a [Territory Purchase Scroll]. This type of rule-based item is not sold in the Game House; players need to hunt Pollution Monsters to obtain it."

"Moreover, there are conditions for purchasing territory: it must be a force that possesses a family."

Purchased territory will automatically be integrated into the family's territory range.

Upgrading family levels, expanding family buildings, including family crests, all occupy the family territory's capacity.

For a family to develop, purchasing territory is an unavoidable step.

Therefore,

These islands and continents that Fang Yi had devoured and purchased would all be high-quality commodities fiercely competed for by players in the future.

"Mr. Fang Yi."

Whitebeard couldn't help but ask, "Until now, only one family token has appeared, and you personally sold it to that little girl in Alabasta. Can the Whitebeard Pirates also purchase a family token?"

Although he had purchased an unexpected item like the Scarlet Troll Bloodline,

He hadn't forgotten the Whitebeard Pirates' original goal in coming to the East Blue.

Healing illnesses and a family token.

Fang Yi smiled and said, "It seems Mr. Whitebeard has a deep obsession with family."

"After all, even the Red Hair Pirates, who uphold the concept of freedom, need an island as their base."

Whitebeard did not shy away, stating directly, "Even if I am a Scarlet Troll, a strong army can only wander. Being stationed on an island and patiently managing it is what a Pirate Emperor should do."

Don't look at how Straw Hat Luffy sails along, with a single pirate ship meeting all his needs.

But that's in the early stages.

After Straw Hat Luffy defeats the Tenryūbito, even if he has no intention of establishing a force, countless people will spontaneously help him form the Straw Hat Grand Fleet.

Straw Hat Luffy won't need to say much; they will already start occupying islands.

In the Pirate World,

Islands are the foundation of major powers, just as the World Government is the logistical support for Navy Headquarters. Every major power cannot avoid this.

"family tokens are not sold in the Game House."

Fang Yi shook his head, "The first token in Alabasta was part of the game's promotion."

"Is that so?"

Whitebeard was a little disappointed.

Anyone with a slightly functional brain could see the importance of family tokens.

If the Reincarnation Game continues to expand, eventually everything in the Pirate World will be incorporated into the game's map. Whoever can own a family will occupy the resources and advantages for cultivating players.

"After the game promotion ends, they will naturally appear in large quantities."

Fang Yi reached out,

And issued a new announcement on the public channel visible to all players.

[Game Merchant]:

Death Island will open in 5 hours. Intelligence is now public.

The resurrected Contaminated Lord [Soul Reaper] has broken free from its right hand chain, its four-dimensional attributes have increased by 20 points, and it has unlocked a new skill [Grip of Fear].

Drop items revealed: Soul Reaper's Shoulder Pad, Soul Reaper Scythe, reward points, family token fragments…

After the announcement was made.

All the forces lurking and recuperating on the islands of the East Blue were in an uproar.

"Finally, family token fragments have appeared?"

Doflamingo swirled his wine glass, drank it all, and the crimson wine stained his clothes from the corner of his mouth.

Behind him,

Were the new recruits who had successfully been recognized by the Donquixote Family after countless battles.

The purple-haired man in golden armor, the former pirate admiral of a grand fleet, Krieg.

After betraying the Navy, the former East Blue Navy Captain, Axe-Hand Morgan.

To avenge himself, Morgan gave himself a new nickname, Axe Emperor Morgan. He swore to chop off Straw Hat Luffy's head with his giant axe!

The other players who failed in the struggles,

Were all incorporated into the [Flamingo Group]. Whoever performed exceptionally well during the hunting of Pollution Monsters could become a new member of the Donquixote Family.

"Aokiji, Sakazuki, Borsalino."

Vice Admiral Tsuru said with a serious expression, "You have just become players and don't have enough time to grow stronger, so your mission is to try to stall Whitebeard."

Even if they could purchase destiny items from the Game House,

But with Death Island sealed, the Navy Admirals who hadn't hunted Pollution Monsters were too low-level and couldn't equip gear and weapons.

This meant that even if they possessed powerful skills, their four-dimensional attributes would be at a disadvantage when competing with top players.

Therefore,

Fighting against new players who also couldn't equip gear, and annihilating the Whitebeard Pirates in one fell swoop, was the best combat option.

"Garp and Smoker."

Vice Admiral Tsuru looked at Garp, who was almost asleep, frowned, and said, "Fleet Admiral Sengoku's latest allocation has arrived in your accounts. Continue to strengthen yourselves and confront the Revolutionary Army Leader."

Military expenses were already overdrawn.

Sengoku, stationed at Navy Headquarters, had prepared to go all out. These were assets obtained by selling Navy bases.

Once the Contaminated Lord was completely killed,

This battle in the East Blue would end.

If the World Government freed its hands and Navy Headquarters still lacked sufficient independent capability, it would completely disappear from this ocean.

Sengoku was also aware of the severe consequences,

But it was also the only opportunity to break free from the World Government and grasp true justice.

"Understood."

Smoker nodded with a serious expression.

From a Loguetown Captain to the Navy's Fourth Admiral [Poison Dragon], he showed no panic.

He only needed to eliminate all pirates and uphold justice. Whether as a Navy Captain or a Navy Admiral, his beliefs would not change.

Inside the Game House,

"It's a shame; I didn't awaken the Scarlet Chains."

The Scarlet Troll Bloodline's innate abilities appeared randomly.

After trying, Whitebeard found that the awakened talent was neither Scarlet Resonance, a mental link, nor Scarlet Bloodspring, which could heal injuries, nor Scarlet Chains, which allowed life-sharing.

Instead, it was a new talent that hadn't appeared before.

Buzz.

A scarlet aura emanated.

Quickly condensing into several blood-colored shields, as well as scarlet curved knives and katanas.

[Scarlet Blood Soldiers Lv.1]: Consumes the energy of the Scarlet Crystal Core to provide friendly units with weapons imbued with scarlet aura.

Chop!

Whitebeard gripped Cong Yun Cut and struck the blood-colored shield. It actually blocked his swing, only showing slight cracks.

With his own strength, even without releasing the Quake-Quake Fruit and Haki, pure physical strength would break ordinary weapons.

Yet, Lv.1 Scarlet Blood Soldiers could block it?

Moreover,

Whitebeard controlled the blood soldiers, quickly fusing and gathering them into a blood-colored shield the size of a city wall.

"They can actually fuse. The more Scarlet Blood Soldiers gathered, the stronger their power and defense."

Whitebeard exclaimed, "A very strong group skill. The Whitebeard Pirates' coordinated combat ability can double."

He had been somewhat disappointed initially, but he hadn't expected the new skill to be so powerful.

"While it cannot produce family tokens, all the Troll's innate abilities can be refreshed in the Game House, as long as you have enough reward points."

Fang Yi smiled politely.

Once he grasped a player's weakness, he wasn't worried about them not spending money.

Putting everything else aside, just the Scarlet Troll's innate abilities were enough to drain all the Whitebeard Pirates' savings over the years.

"reward points, I still have some…"

Whitebeard nodded confidently, turning to look at the Game House's shelves.

The first [Random Key] appeared.

The Krypton Gold has begun!
