Hearing Lin Yuan say this, everyone felt a sense of solemnity, but even more so, they were filled with excitement.
For so many years, they've only had eyes for the position of Pirate King, and they've even become complacent with the status quo.
However, Lin Yuan's appearance completely changed their thinking, and they realized just how terrifying the war to come would be.
Although they were confident in themselves, after all, they were beings who Awakening Conqueror's Haki, they couldn't guarantee that they could survive.
Lin Yuan looked at Bullet, Redfield, Kaido, Shiki, and Lot Linlin, and with a thought, casually took out five bracelets and threw them at them.
Whitebeard Newgate, Zephyr, and Mihawk saw this thing, a glint of light flashed in their eyes.
Redfield fiddled with the bracelet on his wrist. Although he knew that everything Lin Yuan gave him was very valuable, he still asked in confusion.
"Is this a special metal from the Chamber of Commerce? But what use is it to us?"
"Hahaha, it's just a special metal, Redfield. Want me to trade you something? How about my Supreme Great Grade Sword Murakumogiri?"
Whitebeard Newgate said impatiently that he had many sons, but only he himself had any, and he wished he could have more.
But Redfield was incredibly shrewd, and not just him, but everyone present was a fool. If Whitebeard Newgate was willing to trade his own weapon for it, how could its value be low?
"Heh, Newgate, I'm not interested in your Supreme Great Grade Sword. This little thing is much more unique!"
Whitebeard Newgate realized something was wrong; his impulsive bidding had made these old guys wary.
Sure enough, his gaze shifted to the others; Kaido and the others were all staring at the bracelet in their hands.
"The bracelet is inlaid with a Pure Gold. You're all getting on in years, and this will help keep your bodies in peak condition!"
" Pure Gold!"
The group muttered something to themselves, then their pupils contracted instantly as they recalled a legend from two hundred years ago about a magical object that could grant immortality.
"Currently, it seems that Pure Gold can grant immortality for at least two hundred years. Doctor Acier and Olga, who created it, are currently on Sky Island; they are people from two hundred years ago!"
"As for this bracelet, it's the latest research achievement of the Chamber of Commerce, and its strength will allow you to fight with confidence."
The metal Lin Yuan spoke of was the material used to create Devil Fruit weapons. It was obtained from researching Poneglyph, and Lin Yuan currently has several Poneglyph in his ring.
Upon hearing Lin Yuan's explanation, Bullet and the others' hearts pounded. They hadn't expected Lin Yuan to have this item and return it to them!
"Hmph, you old cod got off too easily! I gave you Lin Yuan, the entire Whitebeard Pirates for just one!"
Zephyr smiled and spoke up.
"Hehe, I'll also give my Neo Marines to that brat Lin Yuan!"
Mihawk:...
Lin Yuan smiled and glanced at the group, then said to Lot Linlin, "Your heart can be returned to you. As for the Hunger Pangs, Kureha is already researching it; perhaps it can be cured!"
Lot Linlin's face stiffened at first, after all, her heart was still in Lin Yuan's hands, and now everyone knew.
However, it would be wonderful if her Hunger Pangs could be cured, as she suffers terribly every time they flare up!
"Mamamama, Lin Yuan, from now on my pirate crew is yours, and what I can give you is all my fighting power, and perhaps a few of my daughters too!"
Upon hearing Lot Linlin's words, everyone's lips twitched involuntarily. If Lin Yuan had any flaws, it was that he had too many wives.
However, those women were indeed all incredibly beautiful, and some were even introduced by them, including Kaido's daughter and Zephyr's student.
However, Lin Yuan treated his women very well, even to the point of spoiling them, so no one dared to say anything. After all, those people were not just pretty faces; they could even team up and beat anyone here except Lin Yuan.
He casually tossed Lot Linlin's heart to her, and even a strong person like her was quite frightened. She quickly and carefully took it and pressed it into her heart.
"Alright, now that you've brought this out, it means I trust you. However, only a few people know about this; it's all very close to the core leadership. You must keep it a secret!"
No one present was a fool. If others knew about this thing, the whole world would probably be in an uproar, and any pirate with a bit of strength would attack them like crazy.
The World Government might even start a war ahead of schedule, at any cost, because Imu doesn't want any immortal beings to exist in the world, except for herself!
Bullet carefully put on the bracelet, even swallowing hard as he gently stroked it.
"Heh, if I had known about this, I probably wouldn't have eaten that Mythical Zoan -type Bat-Bat Fruit."
Redfield said with a smile, but his words were met with eye rolls from everyone. Mythical Zoan Fruit were very precious to them.
"Hehe, speaking of which, Mr. Zephyr, Mihawk, I have a few Devil Fruit here, Mythical Zoan and Logia, would you like some?"
Lin Yuan gave most of the Devil Fruit he had to his subordinates, but he kept the most powerful Devil Fruit for himself.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Lin Yuan had so many good things in his possession that if they weren't outmatched, they would have wanted to rob him.
However, Mihawk still had no intention of eating Devil Fruit. He only allowed Black Blade Yoru because he wanted to see if he could communicate with his beloved sword.
Zephyr didn't object. He was slightly weaker than the others present, barely on par with Mihawk.
In the end, Lin Yuan gave Zephyr the Mythical Zoan, Yamata no Orochi Form of the Devil Fruit. This fruit not only grants him extra lives but also greatly enhances his physique and strength.
Kurozumi Orochi was completely wasting his time eating that Devil Fruit. Look at Zephyr; he was able to instantly transform into a hundred-meter-long beast form right after eating it.
Over the next few days, the group became even more harmonious. Watching Lin Yuan pull out countless delicacies from his treasure pouch, everyone immediately started a banquet. In this atmosphere, they were not far from the Giant Kingdom of Elbaf.
However, a small mishap occurred: Charlotte Linlin suddenly developed a food craving.
To others, this would have been a disaster, but they didn't even consider who was present. At Lin Yuan's suggestion, the group immediately attacked, preparing to knock her unconscious.
Surprisingly, Lin Yuan was amazed that he had struck Lot Linlin so hard that she developed Hunger Pangs.
" Bullet, I heard you were in Roger Pirates. You might run into some old friends on your way to Elbaf!"
"An old friend, a member of Roger's crew? How could that be? No Titans joined us back then!"
Bullet was somewhat surprised. Although he joined Roger Pirates because he took Roger as his role model, he had never seen Giant Race before.
"Heh, you'll see when the time comes. This guy is quite strong too."
Lin Yuan, who was familiar with some of the plot, knew that the Pirate King's right and left hands had gone into seclusion, and that Rayleigh was living with Shakky in the Sabaody Archipelago.
But Gaban is quite something; he actually made it to the Giant Kingdom of Elbaf and even married a Giant Race woman there. What a hero!
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan smiled and began to think about how to trick the other party into his hands!
