"So, that boy Ace, is he truly the blood successor of the Old Captain?" Shanks gripped his beloved sword tightly, his hand trembling slightly. He stared at Whitebeard and the three others with a sharp expression, like an eagle spotting a rabbit, and spoke slowly.
The four fell silent for a moment, before Whitebeard finally nodded slightly.
"Heh heh, if the Old Captain knew about this in the afterlife—that you adopted his son—he probably wouldn't let you off easily, Whitebeard." Shanks spoke with a teasing look, as if he had already pronounced Whitebeard's death sentence.
"Gurarara, then the Old Man will worry about that when he reaches the underworld. Perhaps that time is not far off." Whitebeard laughed heartily. He had no fear of death, but his only concern was still his sons. After he left, would this group of sons really be able to take care of themselves?
At the same time, he also worried secretly that Ace did not seem like an ideal successor.
"Pops." Marco and the others instantly cast worried gazes toward Whitebeard, their eyes filled with anxiety and even a hint of despair.
Because even they had to admit that the days their Old Man could stay by their side were coming to an end.
However, just then, everyone's eyes simultaneously focused on Luna, deeply captivated by her words.
"Actually, I specially prepared two generous gifts for the two seniors on this trip. Let's put aside the current topic for a moment, and I will take them out first. I believe these two treasures will be of great benefit to you and provide immense assistance."
Luna knew the time was right, so she quickly took out two potions.
Next, she tossed them casually, and the two potions flew toward Shanks and Whitebeard respectively. Both men were quick and caught them instantly.
Potion?
After seeing clearly what was in their hands, the two immediately cast confused and curious looks.
The meaning was obvious: Young Lady, what exactly did you give us? Of course, at this moment, it wasn't just the two of them; the others in both Pirate Crews also cast the same gaze.
What are these two bottles of potion? But they knew that what Luna brought out was definitely not ordinary water.
And in the next moment, Luna's words completely shocked them, as if a giant meteorite had struck their hearts.
"The one in Whitebeard Senior's hand is the Youth Potion. As long as you drink it, it can restore you to at least the state you were in during your golden-haired period. It will also allow you to possess the strength and physique you had back then, and even the old internal injuries accumulated over the years in your body will instantly disappear."
"The one in Shanks Senior's hand is the Severed Limb Restoration Potion. As long as you drink it, the arm he lost many years ago should grow back, just like new, as if he had never lost it. I'm not even sure where you lost your arm back then."
Luna said this with a smiling expression, looking exactly like a Young Lady who was genuinely showing a sweet, charming, and confident smile.
But after she finished speaking, Shanks was shocked, Whitebeard was shocked, and everyone else, including Perona, was shocked. But especially Shanks and Whitebeard themselves—they immediately looked at the potions in their hands, trembling slightly all over.
Restoring youth and peak condition, with all internal injuries gone.
Restoring a severed arm.
These were all fantasies they had long held, and even now, they felt the same way, but now...
Could all of this be restored because of one bottle of potion?
"Hey, hey, hey, Young Lady, you're not lying, are you?"
"Yeah, is there really such a miraculous thing in this world?"
Marco and Benn Beckman's group spoke one after another, but it was clear from their expressions and eyes that they were still somewhat skeptical.
Because these two bottles of potion were simply too unbelievable.
"Seniors, you still underestimate me. I, Luna, can resurrect the dead, and I can establish such a powerful Young Lady team in less than three months. Are these two potions really that strange?"
Luna put on a cute, somewhat innocent expression as she spoke.
This immediately made these big men feel a little embarrassed. That's right, those two things seemed much more miraculous in their eyes.
Especially the former: resurrecting the dead.
"Gurarara, the Old Man naturally trusts you, Young Lady. Besides, you are truly different from the Old Captain. Even though you are his Granddaughter, you are much more trustworthy than the Old Captain."
Whitebeard suddenly burst into laughter. He spoke the truth, because compared to the Old Captain, Luna was indeed much easier to get along with. Their previous conversation and drinking had already proven it. He generally liked this Young Lady, and even felt envy and jealousy in his heart—why were his sons all like that, while the Old Captain's Granddaughter was... Sigh, comparing people just makes you angry.
However, compared to these two bottles of potion, Luna had already accomplished two even more shocking and miraculous feats. And truthfully, with Luna's current strength, even Rocks probably couldn't defeat his cute and excellent Granddaughter.
So, after finishing his words, the domineering and straightforward Whitebeard immediately uncorked the potion bottle. Then, under the astonished gazes of everyone except Luna and Shanks, he directly drank the potion inside the bottle in one gulp.
"Pops." Marco and the others immediately rushed to Whitebeard's side, casting worried and slightly reproachful expressions.
"Will it really work!"
"I still don't quite believe it."
Even the executives of the Red Hair Pirates were still skeptical.
"Hmph, you can definitely trust my Captain," Perona said, slightly displeased.
How dare they question her new Boss, Luna-sama? Even if these were members of the Red Hair Pirates, she had to say something.
Anyway, wasn't Luna still a powerful backer she could cling to anytime?
(Luna:..., You really are a genius.)
"Yo, Young Lady, you're quite bold, aren't you?"
"Exactly, is that how you talk to your uncles?"
The Red Hair Pirates spoke up against Perona one after another, expressing their dissatisfaction. They were, after all, executives of the Red Hair Pirates, powerful individuals. Now, they were being lectured by this Young Lady. Even if they wouldn't attack, they had to object.
"You guys, damn it! Negatives Ghosts!"
Perona immediately pouted in anger at what they said, then raised her hand and unleashed her signature move. The Negatives Ghosts passed through the bodies of the confused Red Hair Pirates executives.
Perona's special move, "Negatives Ghosts," truly lived up to its reputation. After the ghosts passed through the bodies of the Red Hair Pirates executives, their originally confident expressions instantly became negative and depressed. They all hung their heads, as if they had lost the will to fight.
