Seven days later, inside a top-level suite at the Golden King Hotel in Gran Tesoro.
Luo Chen sat on the sofa in the living room, watching TV in boredom.
Although Boa Hancock and Nami were in the bedroom, he had entered a "cooldown" period.
Of the seven days, half the time was spent shopping and strolling, and the other half was spent fooling around in the hotel.
Luo Chen was starting to lose interest.
During this period, Nico Robin called from Totto Land.
She reported on the current situation of the Jinghai Army.
Momousagi led over thirty thousand Headquarters Marines to surrender to the Jinghai Army.
Fifty thousand men under the Whitebeard Pirates had begun military training.
In addition, Shanks and Dracule Mihawk had arrived together.
Shanks' purpose was to meet Roger.
According to reliable information, Shanks actually cried after seeing Roger.
Unfortunately, no photos or videos were taken.
After seeing Roger, he didn't leave immediately.
Instead, after asking for permission, he temporarily stayed on the island where Roger was stationed.
Dracule Mihawk also stayed; he ran to the island where Shimotsuki Ryuma was stationed whenever he had nothing to do.
The two World's Greatest Swordsmen from different eras had been sparring in swordsmanship on the sea for many days in a row.
According to Nico Robin's speculation, Dracule Mihawk wouldn't be leaving anytime soon.
He already knew that Luo Chen's swordsmanship had surpassed the level of a Great Swordsman and reached the realm of a Sword Emperor.
Like Shanks, he was waiting for Luo Chen to return to Totto Land.
Except the former had matters to discuss, while Dracule Mihawk aimed to spar in swordsmanship.
Besides these two, there was another group of visitors.
Former Marine Admiral, "Black Arm" Zephyr.
He led the independently formed NEO Marines to pay a visit.
Smoker and his adjutant Tashigi, who had once fought Luo Chen, had also joined the NEO Marines.
Zephyr stated that if the Jinghai Army was determined to wipe out pirates, he was willing to lead the NEO Marines to join.
Nico Robin agreed to this matter directly on Luo Chen's behalf.
Luo Chen had publicly stated the goals of the Jinghai Army many times.
Destroying the World Government was the top priority.
Secondly, wiping out pirates.
There was no need to ask for instructions again; Nico Robin could agree to it.
Luo Chen had long anticipated Zephyr joining the Jinghai Army.
Before the Five Elders led the attack, he had seen the news of the World Government's conscription in the newspaper.
Similar to the original plot, they recruited Edward Weevil and Trafalgar Law to fill the Shichibukai vacancies.
It just happened two years earlier.
Zephyr had a blood feud with Edward Weevil, who had killed many of his students.
Leaving the World Government and forming the NEO Marines was a matter of time.
And he had also instructed Nico Robin in advance.
If Zephyr arrived, let this person take on the position of Chief Instructor of the Jinghai Army.
Zephyr's teaching ability was outstanding.
The three Marine Admirals—Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji—were all students he had cultivated.
Many Marine Vice Admirals were also cultivated by him.
Zephyr's own strength could only be considered at the level of an Admiral Candidate in the Jinghai Army.
But his teaching ability was streets ahead of a certain teacher surnamed Rayleigh.
These were the major events in Totto Land over these past few days.
Before hanging up, Nico Robin mentioned one last thing.
Animals on many islands in the East Blue had become berserk, and some even fell from the sky to attack enemies everywhere.
Since the Marines were suspended, she dispatched the Jinghai Army to deal with it.
This matter would help spread the fame of the Jinghai Army.
To ensure nothing went wrong, she ordered Whitebeard to personally lead the army there.
Currently, among the nine Admirals of the Jinghai Army, Roger and Whitebeard were the top two strongest.
Roger's identity was special and could easily cause a sensation.
Even Imu might take action, so it was inconvenient to send him.
Whitebeard was a more suitable candidate.
He was powerful and was in an Impure World Reincarnation body; even if he encountered Imu, he could resist for a while.
When Luo Chen heard about many fierce beasts falling from the sky, he thought of "Golden Lion" Shiki.
Golden Lion Shiki was once a member of the Rocks Pirates and a user of the Float-Float Fruit.
He could keep dozens of islands floating in the air all year round.
This person was powerful and had contended with Roger and Whitebeard in his youth.
In the theatrical version, Shiki used a special drug to make animals go berserk and possess great power.
His goal was to destroy the East Blue.
Later, he was stopped by the Straw Hat Crew.
There was no news of Monkey D. Luffy and the others, and Luo Chen didn't know what the Straw Hat Crew was doing.
Sending Whitebeard there was no problem.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Baccarat's voice came through.
"Mr. Luo Chen, the Boss has gathered the funds. Please come and receive them."
...
Twenty minutes later, underground warehouse of the Golden King Hotel.
Luo Chen looked at the Belly filling the huge warehouse and smiled.
A full three trillion Belly.
This was the largest sum he had ever received in history.
The most he had received before was only the one hundred billion Belly given by the World Government at the Sabaody Archipelago.
"Fleet Admiral, do you need me to send people to transport these to Totto Land?"
Gild Tesoro asked from the side.
Luo Chen shook his head, deciding to load the Belly into the Kamui dimension.
Gild Tesoro transporting it could easily lead to unexpected trouble.
Of course, three trillion Belly was more than enough for the construction of Totto Land.
He might only take away a part of it in the end.
Luo Chen waved his hand to let Gild Tesoro leave first.
He was going to recharge.
Three trillion Belly would trigger multiple cumulative recharge Ninjutsu rewards consecutively.
Luo Chen walked into the warehouse and communicated with the system in his consciousness.
[Three trillion Belly recharged, exchanged for three billion Cultivation Points.]
[Congratulations Host, cumulative recharge amount reached 300 billion Belly. Reward—Bansho Ten'in (Universal Pull)!]
[Congratulations Host, cumulative recharge amount reached 1 trillion Belly. Reward—Amenotejikara!]
[Congratulations Host, cumulative recharge amount reached 2 trillion Belly. Reward—Tenseigan!]
The system instantly triggered three cumulative recharge Ninjutsu rewards.
Bansho Ten'in, Amenotejikara, and... Tenseigan!
Bansho Ten'in was one of the core abilities of the Rinnegan.
Manipulating gravity to attract enemies or objects.
It worked on the same principle as Chibaku Tensei.
However, the activation speed of Bansho Ten'in was faster.
Chibaku Tensei was essentially a sealing Ninjutsu and required a relatively long time to complete.
Bansho Ten'in, however, could be effective in rapidly changing battles.
"The target of Bansho Ten'in's gravitational pull can also be much smaller. Perhaps I can use this technique to suck out the slave mark on Hancock's back."
The smallest target for Chibaku Tensei was about the size of a human body.
Bansho Ten'in, however, could precisely attract dust in the air or even more minute existences.
The Celestial Dragon's slave mark was different from scars caused by ordinary branding tools.
The mark contained a special substance.
It was precisely this special substance that made the slave mark impossible to erase easily.
Many people could only cover it with a larger scar.
Bansho Ten'in should be able to suck out this special substance, thereby destroying the slave mark.
"Both being gravitational forces, Bansho Ten'in can be used in fusion with Chibaku Tensei, and the effect will be even stronger."
"Among the numerous abilities of the Tenseigan, there is also the manipulation of repulsion and attraction."
"With the powerful gravity formed by the fusion of the three, even Imu shouldn't think about breaking free."
Luo Chen had a bright smile and was in a good mood.
The Tenseigan exceeded expectations.
This was a supreme Dojutsu not inferior to the Rinnegan, possessing multiple heaven-defying abilities.
