Temporarily setting aside the jumbled thoughts, Reno continued reading further.
: The ship uses Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology, so the host need not worry about energy.
: The ship comes with 200 Maid Intelligent Robots, dedicated to daily cleaning and maintenance, so the host won't be troubled by such trivial matters.
: The ship includes an intelligent auxiliary function, capable of automatic flight.
: The radar can scan everything within a five-thousand-mile radius. In case of an emergency, it will proactively warn the host; if it's a natural disaster, it can evade in advance.
: When in danger, the host can activate an energy shield, defense level one, capable of withstanding attacks from the largest magnitude nuclear bomb.
: The ship is equipped with 180 Laser Cannons, capable of long-range strikes against targets 300 kilometers away, easily destroying the highest-spec Marine warships.
"Very Good." Reno nodded repeatedly in approval.
Every annotation pleased him deeply.
In short, aside from its offensive capabilities being somewhat lacking, everything else was virtually invincible.
No wonder it was called a Luxury Living Ship.
When would he draw a combat-type luxury ship? He'd blast Mary Geoise to pieces with one shot.
The luxury ship was automatically stored in the system warehouse, and Reno moved on to the second reward.
Slave Mark x20.
Annotation:
: The host can condense an Enslavement Seal and imprint it on the target's mental will. Anyone marked with a Slave Mark will unconditionally obey the host's commands. The host holds power over their life and death, regardless of distance.
: The target must willingly submit to the host, or the host's strength must far surpass the target's, for the Slave Mark to be successfully applied.
: If the target is female, once marked with a Slave Mark, she is considered automatically recruited.
This seemed pretty good too.
Reno rubbed his chin, his thoughts churning.
The first people that came to mind were the beauties in the Marines: Hibari, Kujaku, Doll, Momousagi, Hina.
With their opposing stances, they naturally wouldn't give in so easily. The stubborn ones would probably rather die than submit.
With the Slave Mark, it would save him a lot of trouble.
He could just mark them directly and recruit them automatically—how satisfying.
Speaking of which, Junzi of the Divine Knights seemed pretty attractive too.
But she was too strong and not easy to Deal With; he'd have to study that carefully later.
Besides those Plot Beauties, Reno also thought of some talented individuals.
Like Enel from Sky Island. Aside from being arrogant and conceited, his strength and talent were undeniable.
But that guy's fate was pretty miserable too—either getting recruited as a Younger Brother or getting Killed for his fruit.
Reno's next stop was Sky Island, but for the Reno Pirates, who only recruited female Crewmates, barring any surprises, Enel would probably die again.
Next Day.
After breakfast at the Royal Palace, the Group bid farewell to Cobra and prepared to leave Alabasta.
He had already left Location Coordinates here, so he could come back anytime he wanted.
Even so, Nami and Cobra still put on a heartfelt father-daughter farewell.
It made the more emotional Girls cry.
"Nami, you must come back and see your Father King." Cobra was Tears Streaming Down his face.
"Don't worry, Father King." Nami was also in tears, nodding repeatedly.
"Huh?! Where's the Merry?!!"
Nami Looked around left and right, suddenly realizing their Merry was gone.
"Where did the Merry go?!!"
"Dammit, who dares to steal our ship?!!"
Furious, Nami immediately rolled up her Sleeves, ready to pick a fight.
"I put the Merry away. Can you Calm Down?" Reno said helplessly, looking at the noisy Nami.
Before the Other Girls could react, Nami had already blown up over nothing.
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Nami shot Reno a glance, deflating like a punctured balloon.
"Captain, why did you put the Merry away? Are you afraid someone might steal it?!!" Makino covered her mouth with a laugh. She didn't believe anyone would be that clueless.
The other Girls joined in laughing, their voices blending into a pleasant melody.
Reno raised an eyebrow and said smugly, "Starting today, we're switching gear."
He raised his arm, and with a Flash of light, a massive luxury ship suddenly appeared in the Sky Above All the Women.
The girls instinctively looked up, and when they saw the luxury spaceship before them, they covered their mouths, stunned into silence.
"Reno, where did you get this?! It's way too big." Excited Nami rode an island cloud, circling the ship.
"Captain, is this also a ship?!"
"There are ships like this?!"
"Brother Reno, what's this ship called?!"
After the brief shock, the girls fired off all kinds of questions.
Reno sighed helplessly, lifting the women with an island cloud. "I'll tell you once we're inside."
Amid the girls' gasps, the spaceship vanished into the sky with a whoosh.
Leaving Cobra and the many ministers standing dumbfounded in the wind.
Entering the ship, Reno activated the radar detection and auto-pilot functions.
Then he led the curiosity-filled girls on a tour.
Why "tour"? Because the ship was simply enormous.
"So many rooms, and all different styles?!"
"I want this pink one!"
"I want this orange-yellow one—don't anyone fight me for it!"
"This blue room is mine!"
The girls darted through the hundreds of rooms, quickly finding ones that suited their tastes.
They bounced on the soft, spacious beds.
It was a real upgrade from their old gear!!
"Ah!!!"
Suddenly, Tashigi's startled cry came from nearby.
Nami, Vivi, and the other girls rushed over. "Tashigi, what happened?!"
Tashigi's face was flushed red as she pointed a finger into the room beyond.
Puzzled, the girls filed in. When they saw the scene inside, their reactions mirrored Tashigi's.
Inside were all kinds of toys, in various sizes—things they'd seen, things they hadn't, everything imaginable.
"Captain, why is there a room like this?!"
"Reno, you've got quite the repertoire!"
"Brother Reno, did you set this up too?!"
The women launched a chorus of accusations.
Reno cried out in protest—it had nothing to do with him, it was all the system's doing!!
But inside, he was smirking: Nice work!!
With all this variety, there'd be plenty of fun ahead.
For the next while, Reno took the girls to tour the ship's leisure and entertainment facilities.
Along the way, Kaya and Robin stayed in the library—Kaya flipping through medical texts, Robin reading history books.
Nami and Nojiko lingered in the orange grove, starting to water the trees. The grove's size rivaled the one in Cocoyasi Village.
Before, limited by the Merry's capacity, they'd only brought a few orange trees.
Valentine, Goldie, and Sara were keen on grinding coffee, so they stayed in the coffee shop.
In the original story, after the Alabasta Incident, the three had opened a coffee shop called Spider.
Makino praised the massive winery, saying she could store more alcohol there now.
Vivi, Tashigi, and Carmen followed Reno to tour the botanical garden, and they even squeezed in a game of mahjong.
Another pleasant day had begun!

Chapter 60: Reno's Fame Across the Sea, the Shocked Yonko! (Please Subscribe for Support)
Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
Inside the Fleet Admiral's Office.
Fleet Admiral Sengoku, with his seagull hat perched on his head, stared incredulously at the report before him: "Crocodile was killed by Reno?!!"
Crocodile daring to scheme against Alabasta was already shocking enough.
He hadn't expected the man to end up dead at the hands of a newcomer pirate.
Every year, a few formidable imps made names for themselves in various sea areas.
But most were fleeting—only a handful survived, let alone made waves across the Great Sea.
And Reno, barely into the Grand Line, had already taken down a Shichibukai?!
"It really is baffling," Vice Admiral Tsuru remarked from the side, equally surprised.
This wasn't just rare—it had never happened before.
"It seems we've all underestimated Reno." Sengoku's gaze shifted to the bounty poster beside him.
[Reno: Captain of the Reno Pirates, suspected Cloud-Cloud Fruit user, bounty 30 Million Beli.]
Sengoku recalled a phone call from Garp in Loguetown a few days ago.
Garp's tone had been unusually low.
[Reno's swordsmanship bears the mark of Golden Lion's legacy!]
"Could he really be Golden Lion's disciple?"
Sengoku pondered, the more he thought, the more likely it seemed.
Garp and Golden Lion were rivals from the same era—they'd clashed dozens, if not hundreds of times. Garp would never mistake Golden Lion's signature techniques.
Since Golden Lion escaped from Impel Down, there had been no word of him on the Great Sea for years.
As if he'd vanished from the face of the earth.
Sengoku had assumed the old lion had died somewhere.
But now, it seemed he might have stepped into the shadows, training a disciple to continue his reign of terror.
"What a headache." Sengoku rubbed his brow, irritated.
