Shakky looked at Redfield, who was crackling with electricity, with envy. She really wanted a Devil Fruit that was both cool and powerful too!

"Captain Brook, I don't care, in any case, my future Devil Fruit must be cool and powerful!"

Shakky shook Brook's arm, acting like a spoiled child, completely unlike her usual self!

"Alright, alright! How about the Mythical Zoan: Vampire Model? You can fly and stay forever young. Or the Mythical Zoan: Nine-Tailed Fox Model, which lets you turn into anyone. Or the Mythical Zoan: Phoenix Model, which possesses the Blue Flames of Resurrection and makes you impossible to kill."

"Or perhaps the Logia Snow-Snow Fruit. And there's one perfect for a money-lover like you: the Paramecia Gold-Gold Fruit, which can create gold!"

Listening to the Devil Fruits Brook described, Shakky was drooling. She wanted them all; it was so hard to choose! Even Silvers, Crocus, and Tom were filled with anticipation and fantasies about these fruits.

"Captain, do these Devil Fruits really exist?"

Shakky asked with golden light in her eyes, as if she were expecting something!

"Indeed, these Devil Fruits truly exist, and right now, they are waiting in some corner for us to find them!"

Brook's words were like a devil's whisper, deeply captivating Shakky's mind and filling her eyes with visions.

"Then Captain Brook, do you know where these Devil Fruits are?"

Shakky asked cautiously, her voice trembling slightly, as if Brook might deal her a heavy blow in the next second.

"They might appear within the next twenty or thirty years; I don't know where they are either, but..."

"But what? Tell me quickly, you jerk of a captain! Don't you know how agonizing this is for me right now!"

Shakky was already disappointed. Twenty or thirty years? Who could wait that long!

"I only know that the Mythical Zoan: Vampire Model is in a place called Sleepy Town. As for the rest, I really don't know right now!"

Brook remembered that the Vampire Devil Fruit required Robin to translate ancient texts, so he knew that this fruit must have been enshrined and kept in Sleepy Town for a long time.

"That's great, flying and eternal youth are good too! Captain Brook, you must take me to find it, otherwise I won't let you off, or I'll cry for you to see..."

Shakky spoke incoherently, as if this Vampire Devil Fruit had already been reserved by her!

"I will definitely help you find it, don't worry, my immortal female vampire! Yohohoho~"

Brook patted Shakky's head and teased her!

Afterward, Brook and his crew broke open the altar and saw the replicated circuits and lightning storage containers inside—they looked impressively advanced!

"There is only one lightning storage device, so we can only build one flying ship!"

Fish-Man Tom was deeply disappointed, wondering if he could replicate this technology. Had the technology of the Blue Sea finally caught up to that of the moon?

"From this moment on, mobilize all resources and complete the construction of the new ship as quickly as possible!!"

"Understood, Captain Brook!!"

Everyone immediately got to work. Redfield was responsible for completely subjugating Birka Island, while Brook and Shakky worked to dismantle the lightning storage container intact to transport it back to Shandora.

Silvers, the gunner, also offered some advice to Fish-Man Tom on redesigning the new ship, as Brook requested it be built larger to accommodate potential future crew members like the small giants.

They spared no effort, even using all the Thunder Dials and Breath Dials from Birka Island and Angel Island. With Brook's full support, Fish-Man Tom poured his absolute best into the project.

He strove to make the new golden flying ship perfect and powerful. Even Silvers discovered methods to modify firearms and cannons within the Pluton blueprints, feeling as excited as if he had discovered a new continent.

Sniper Silvers and Fish-Man Tom stayed holed up in the ship's design room working on their creations; they didn't even ask Tom, the powerhouse, to help move the lightning storage device.

In the end, it was Brook and Redfield who worked together to move it onto the Yomi.

Under Redfield's overwhelming martial might, Light Pen, who had been rescued by the islanders, had no choice but to submit. Brook also had Gan Fumo immediately arrange for administrative Priests to come and suppress any dissent.

All the Thunder Dials and Slash Dials on Birka Island were confiscated to become equipment for the Sky Kingdom's God's Soldiers, turning Birka Island into a production base for these offensive Dials.

Only when the subjects of Birka Island fully joined the Sky Kingdom and had representatives in the administration would they be granted the same rights and benefits as Angel Island!

As Brook and his crew returned to Shandora, Brook mobilized all the resources of the Sky Kingdom to facilitate the construction of the new ship. Even the Yomi was dismantled by Fish-Man Tom to serve as parts for the new vessel.

Brook constantly discussed the development and techniques of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit with Redfield, and even brought in Fish-Man Tom and sniper Silvers to discuss the concept of an electromagnetic cannon.

They wanted to see if they could add an electromagnetic cannon turret to the new ship. The main cannon from the Pluton blueprints was also simplified by Silvers and Tom, and its power was immense!

Only if they could find rarer, harder metals in the future could they upgrade the Pluton's main cannon once more!

The golden pillar from before finally came in handy; all conductive parts were replaced with gold to extend the ship's flight time.

A large number of Breath Dials from the Sky Kingdom were requisitioned by Brook for the new ship. Even if the Angel Race had slight complaints, there was nothing they could do but wait for the next batch of Breath Dials to grow.

Moore Thomas often brought Morgans over to watch the Fish-Man and the others build the ship; it was simply too extravagant, using so much gold.

Even Brook helped out with the new ship. With the entire crew assisting, along with a large number of Priests and God's Soldiers, the construction of the massive golden flying ship progressed rapidly.

Meanwhile, Redfield's strength was increasing rapidly day by day. Now, even Brook could barely keep up with his pace; their strength was almost neck and neck.

If it weren't for Brook's powerful techniques that directly damaged the soul, he likely wouldn't be able to defeat Redfield, who possessed the Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

After completing the main body of the pirate ship, the restless Redfield proactively requested to conquer all the Sky Islands near the Sky Kingdom. Brook supported him and had Gan Fumo dispatch a portion of the Priests and God's Soldiers to him.

Redfield actually stumbled upon a drifting Sky Island. The passing weather science island, Weatheria, had only come up to the White Sea to study the weather, following the winds and currents.

They never expected to encounter a massive shift in the Sky Island powers, the emergence of a nation, and a terrifying menace like Redfield. Their wind knots were useless against him, and even storms and lightning strikes couldn't defeat him.

This menace was also a Rumble-Rumble Fruit user, and his speed and lightning attacks were incredibly sharp. Consequently, all the old men were captured. Since the Sky Island of Weatheria had no propulsion, its direction and speed were entirely determined by the wind.

Redfield had no choice but to mobilize many Wavers and Wind Dials to tow the Weatheria Sky Island, and even brought in Express Shrimp and Super Express Shrimp to pull it back to Shandora!
