Cultivation Room and Position Bonuses

"MISS Valentine, don't get too smug."

Hearing Mikita's laughter, Vivi gritted her teeth in anger after losing the duel.

Vivi found everyone else on the ship easy to get along with, but Mikita alone rubbed her the wrong way.

Well, mainly because the two of them had already disliked each other back when they were in Baroque Works.

Now that she had lost to her opponent, Vivi was even more furious.

"Yahahahaha! You couldn't beat me before, so naturally you can't beat me now either."

Having defeated Vivi, Mikita laughed wildly.

She had regained some of her confidence through Vivi.

Just wait until Lin Yu gives me a Devil Fruit. Then I'll show you how I deal with you.

Hearing Mikita's mockery, Vivi gritted her teeth and resolved to have Lin Yu get her a powerful Devil Fruit.

For that, she was willing to meet some of Lin Yu's excessive demands.

The two of them had already crossed the final line anyway. In order to grow stronger, Vivi could no longer afford to care about so much.

"Alright, switch."

"Next pair, Anna and Charloss."

Chief Instructor Reiju glanced at the two and began rotating in another pair for sparring, using it to increase everyone's experience.

Inside the captain's cabin.

Lin Yu was carefully studying his Pirate Crew System, which had just reached Level Two.

Level Two Pirate Crew: Can recruit six combatants, two cooks, two lookouts, one navigator, one helmsman, one ship's doctor, one shipwright, two general hands, and two special positions, for a total of eighteen crew members.

After recruiting all eighteen crew members and reaching a total crew bounty of 1 billion, the Pirate Crew can be upgraded to a Third-Level Pirate Crew, unlocking more crew positions and obtaining special rewards.

After upgrading to a Level Two Pirate Crew, not only had Lin Yu's control over the ship greatly improved, but the crew limit had also increased from nine to eighteen.

There was one additional shipwright position, one helmsman position, and two special positions.

Special positions could be selected from roles such as instructor, scholar, musician, sniper, demolition expert, and so on.

At the same time, the positions of Lin Yu's crew members were no longer merely for show. They now provided position bonuses.

Combatants trained faster, ship's doctors learned medical knowledge more efficiently, and general hands cleaned more quickly...

As for special positions, they provided special effects.

For example, the instructor position could improve the crew's training efficiency. The stronger the crew member serving as instructor was, and the more suited they were to the position, the greater the bonus they received.

For example, Reiju, who was currently serving as an instructor, was more suitable than Sarah and received a greater bonus.

It made Lin Yu feel as though he were playing a character-development game.

In addition, after forming a bond with a crew member, Lin Yu could now choose to obtain one of that person's abilities at any time.

For example, MISS Double Finger Sarah possessed the talent of Sound Localization and the ability of the Thorn Devil Fruit. After Lin Yu taught her Swordsmanship for the first time, he could choose, at any time, to obtain one of the abilities Sarah possessed at that time.

Lin Yu could choose to obtain Sarah's ability now.

He could also wait until Sarah gained another new ability, then choose to obtain that new ability.

Because of this, Kaya had already been added to Lin Yu's Pirate Crew System as the ship's doctor, while Vivi had been reassigned to the combatant position.

Finally, upgrading his Pirate Crew had also granted Lin Yu a special ability: the Cultivation Room.

Cultivation Room: Designates a special area aboard the ship. Crew members who train within that area will have their training efficiency doubled.

This Cultivation Room was Lin Yu's special reward. It could rapidly increase his crew's strength. Although its effect could not compare to the Time Chamber, it was not far behind.

With the Cultivation Room, plus the special position bonus from the instructor role, Nojiko, Makino, and the others were now improving rapidly. It would not be long before their combat power rose again.

And the higher his crew members' combat power became, the more feedback Lin Yu naturally received.

It would not be long before he successfully reached Five-Star physical attributes and strengthened himself further.

And now, because he had acquired multiple Devil Fruit abilities, Lin Yu's base combat power had directly reached Six-Star, making him the equivalent of a Navy Headquarters Rear Admiral.

With the Science Combat Suit added on top, he should have no problem going up against a Navy Headquarters Vice Admiral.

Then, Lin Yu looked over his current information.

Host: Lin Yu

Physique: Four-Star.

Spirit: Four-Star.

Qi and Blood: Four-Star.

Swordsmanship: Two-Star.

Body Technique: Four-Star.

Armament Haki: Three-Star.

Observation Haki: Two-Star.

Conqueror's Haki: Two-Star.

Special Talents: Endurance, Telepathic Connection, Popular Support.

Special Skills: Authority Training, Appraisal, Ship Control.

Devil Fruits: System Type? Bunch-Bunch Fruit? Pirate Crew Fruit, Light and Heavy, Bomb Human, Box-Box...

Base Combat Power: Six-Star/Navy Headquarters Rear Admiral.

Additional Combat Power: Top Swordsman Experience Card/2 uses remaining, Science Combat Suit.

Note: Combat power does not equal destructive power.

Seeing that his Swordsmanship was only Two-Star, Lin Yu, a Great Swordsman who taught the women Swordsmanship every day, felt somewhat embarrassed.

Since none of the people around him used swords or blades much, they could not provide him with feedback experience, causing his Swordsmanship to improve extremely slowly.

On the contrary, the women's daily physical training had greatly increased his Body Technique, directly bringing it to Four-Star.

Meanwhile, through Reiju's feedback, his Armament Haki had reached Three-Star as well.

"To become a top-tier powerhouse, I still have a long way to go."

"Still, in just two months, I've directly reached the strength of a Navy Headquarters Rear Admiral."

"This System Fruit is a little too terrifying."

"Of course, compared to the protagonist Wang Luffy, who awakened Conqueror's Haki Infusion, Passive Evasion, and HP Lock after three hits, then went from Emperor Commander strength to Emperor Father strength in a single day, it's nothing."

Lost in such random thoughts, Lin Yu left the room and lay down on a deck chair at the bow, watching the women train.

No scenery could compare to the beautiful sight before him, made up of pair after pair of long legs.

If there was, it would definitely be a view with Smoothie's pair of long legs added in.

Not long afterward.

The God Slave carried Lin Yu and the others to Jaya Island.

Before Lin Yu could even disembark, everyone discovered that the sky around Jaya Island was rapidly darkening, as though night had fallen.

"What's happening?"

Looking at the swiftly darkening sky, Kaya spoke in shock and hurriedly grabbed Lin Yu's arm.

Only by Lin Yu's side could she feel safe.

"Kaya, don't worry."

Lin Yu comforted Kaya, already having a certain guess in his heart.

He flew above the God Slave and saw the Going Merry not far away from them.

Without another word, Lin Yu immediately controlled the God Slave toward it.

Then, an enormous torrent erupted from the sea not far ahead of the God Slave, forming a massive pillar of water that shot straight into the sky.

"So that's the massive water column leading to Sky Island..."

Seeing the water column that had appeared in the original story, Lin Yu narrowed his eyes.

"Nami, Robin, just wait for me."
