No one objected. They were indeed no longer at the best age to wear Pure Gold, and now that they had Pure Gold, they felt at ease.
They completely trusted Kazu in this regard, and it was indeed safer to leave him in the captain's hands.
Snap
Kazu crushed the glass dome, and the Pure Gold inside immediately emitted a dazzling light, making the entire laboratory shine with magnificent splendor.
"Wow, it's so sparkly! No wonder it's radiant gold."
Even the three women, who weren't particularly interested in jewelry, were now absolutely enamored with Pure Gold.
" Behrens, use your Rumble-Rumble Fruit powers to make a ring, one that's about six meters tall and can fit you."
Behrens understood immediately. No wonder Captain Kazu suddenly started looking for Pure Gold; it was definitely because of Captain Whitebeard. What a dutiful son he was!
"Haha, it's for Captain Newgate, right? No problem, I'll take care of it."
" Thunder Metallurgy."
Behrens manipulated the lightning, taking a small piece of Pure Gold and transforming it into the shape of a circle.
Behrens thoughtfully had Edward Newgate's name engraved on the inside of the ring.
"Wow, you did a great job, Behrens, that was excellent."
Drew seemed to see the spirit of craftsmanship in Behrens; the ring was simple yet elegant, and the wearer's name was engraved inside, showing great thoughtfulness.
"Haha, not at all, I just have a tiny bit of talent in that area."
Drew usually flattered the captain, but today it was Behrens' turn, which made him very happy.
"Alright, Behrens, make rings for all our current members, and engrave their unique names on them. When you reach your peak strength in the future, just come to me for your rings."
"Yay! Long live Captain Kazu!!"
Everyone was delighted and stared intently at Behrens.
Behrens lived up to expectations, his Thunder Metallurgy making him the most dazzling player in those few minutes.
Everyone took their rings, examined and played with them carefully for a while, and then collectively handed them over to Kazu for safekeeping.
If they wanted to keep it themselves, Kazu would probably agree. However, it's not appropriate for them to wear Pure Gold right now. If they lose it later due to improper storage, they'll really regret it.
Captain Kazu's Independent Space is still the safest.
"Alright, we have the Pure Gold. It's time for us to head back to the Divine Dragon."
I was nervous and excited when I arrived, but when I left, I felt only relief, and the whole world seemed brighter.
Everyone returned to the Divine Dragon, chatting and laughing. Kazu told them to prepare a banquet to celebrate acquiring the Pure Gold, as he needed to go out for a while to give the ring to the old man.
Kazu disappeared from the Divine Dragon and, in the next second, appeared on the deck of the Moby Dick.
"Come on, let's drink again!"
Whitebeard and the division commanders drank and ate meat on the deck, enjoying another day of revelry.
Whitebeard felt like he was in absolutely amazing shape, and Marco no longer had to constantly remind him to drink less and take care of his health.
Kazu suddenly appeared in the middle of the group without warning, startling Whitebeard and the others.
"My dear son, what brings you here all of a sudden?"
Goodness, Whitebeard has been completely unreserved ever since Kazu accepted him; he no longer needs to imitate Garp and forcibly retract his previous statement.
"Haha, Kazu, you've come at the perfect time! Come on over and have a couple of drinks!"
"That's right, we failed to outdrink you last time, but with so many of us here this time, we're sure to get you drunk."
Feeling the enthusiasm of Marco and the others, Kazu didn't stand on ceremony and downed his drink in one gulp, just to quench his thirst.
"None of that's urgent. I mainly came to deliver something to the old man."
Then, Kazu took out the ring engraved with Edward Newgate's name.
"Huh?"
" Kazu, are you going to give me a bracelet?"
"Haha, Pops wouldn't like this kind of jewelry, would he!"
That's right, they thought it was a valuable artifact that Kazu had seized from somewhere, so they never imagined that it was actually a ring.
"You idiots! With wrists this thick, would this even fit into his wrist?"
"It's a ring. I had it custom-made, and it's even engraved with the old man's name."
Kazu's words sounded very filial, and Whitebeard was overjoyed, even though he didn't care much about wealth and had never had the habit of wearing gold and silver.
But this was the first time his beloved son had given him something, so he had to take it seriously and act very happy.
"Gulalalalala~"
" Kazu, you're so thoughtful. I'm very happy with your gift. You're truly my son."
Whitebeard reached out and took the ring from Kazu, then put it on his left hand.
You know what, the size is actually quite right.
