"A special effect type of Devil Fruit," Benn Beckman had already sensed something was wrong with his Observation Haki, so he immediately dodged. All the Red Hair Pirates members, except for him and Shanks, were affected.
But seeing them all in such a state, Benn Beckman was also very surprised. He never expected this Young Lady to be a Devil Fruit User with special effects. Among Devil Fruit Users, besides those whose Devil Fruit abilities grant the user immense power,
this type with special effects is the most troublesome and difficult to deal with. If one's Haki training and mastery haven't reached the Admiral Level like theirs, the consequences would definitely be dire.
Benn Beckman hadn't expected that Luna's new crew member, also a cute Young Lady, would be such a Devil Fruit User.
Shanks, standing nearby, was also very surprised. Although he didn't like Devil Fruits, whether it was to follow the example of Captain Roger and his crew, or to prepare for the future, he had no intention of eating one. However, some powerful or special Devil Fruit Users would still catch his attention.
"Luna, I wonder how you and your Pink Hat Pirates will face the future disasters. However, I believe they won't be able to stump you."
Shanks glanced at Luna and immediately thought to himself, because he suddenly realized, or rather, suddenly remembered, that almost all of the Pink Hat Pirates were Devil Fruit Users.
But at the same time, he also believed that if they truly faced the future disasters, man-made or otherwise, Luna would definitely have the ability to confront them.
Because whether it was her previous achievements and strength, or their current drinking and conversation, he had to believe that Luna truly possessed such ability and could face the future disasters.
After all, a person who can revive the dead, and the Pink Hat Pirates, who had only been at sea for a few months, had already become a world-renowned, Yonko-level Pirate Crew under her leadership, formed by a group of fledgling Young Ladys.
Shanks looked at Whitebeard in front of him; his body was gradually becoming younger, and the potion's effects were manifesting. Then, he turned to Benn Beckman, a determined glint in his eyes, and without hesitation, he opened the potion bottle and drank it all in one gulp.
"Ugh... what is this taste!" Shanks frowned, a pained expression on his face, and his tongue stuck out. He couldn't stand the bitter taste, as if he had swallowed an entire mountain of bitter melon.
Benn Beckman, seeing this, couldn't help but burst into laughter, but his laughter abruptly stopped. His eyes widened, his face filled with astonishment, as if he had witnessed the end of the world. Marco and the others were equally dumbfounded, unable to believe what was happening before their eyes.
Whitebeard's body rapidly regained its youth; his wrinkled face gradually smoothed, his muscles became firm and strong again, and his white hair turned back to brilliant gold. His aura grew stronger, as if he had returned to his peak.
No, he had fully recovered, even the scars on his body, especially those on his chest, were completely healed, leaving behind completely rejuvenated skin.
Then it was Shanks's turn. He felt the potion flowing through his body, a strange energy spreading. A tingling sensation came from his severed arm, as if countless tiny insects were wriggling. He watched intently, filled with anticipation.
Gradually, granulation tissue began to grow from the severed arm. They rapidly intertwined, forming new muscles and bones. Skin gradually covered it, smooth and elastic. He looked at his re-grown arm in disbelief, tears of excitement welling up.
He tried moving his new arm and found it as flexible as his original one. He excitedly waved his arm, savoring the joy of regaining what he had lost, and immediately couldn't help but exclaim,
"Hahahaha... this is truly wonderful! I never thought you'd come back one day."
"Congratulations, Shanks." Benn Beckman walked over, his face full of congratulations.
Because he knew very well that with a restored arm, Shanks's strength would definitely increase significantly, which could be described as adding wings to a tiger.
"Congratulations, Captain."
"Oh my, this is actually real."
"Yes, it's incredible."
"But it's great that the Captain's arm can be restored."
"Yes, it's a great thing for our entire Pirate Crew."
The recovered Red Hair Pirates executives immediately came forward, speaking one after another. Although their eyes were still filled with disbelief,
now that it had happened right before their eyes, they had no choice but to believe that all of this was real, that such a miraculous potion truly existed in this world.
"Gurarara." But suddenly, from the other side, came a hearty laugh. This familiar laugh was undoubtedly Whitebeard's.
Feeling the familiar power within his body, no longer experiencing years of discomfort and pain, it was clear that the potion's effect had healed all his internal injuries, and even the scars on his body were gone. To him, the scars left by that guy were a disgrace. Although that guy was indeed strong, his identity made Whitebeard unable to accept it.
Of course, this still couldn't hide the overwhelming joy and excitement in Whitebeard's heart right now.
His power had completely returned. He could act without restraint, he could fully use the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, and he could also use Haki to his heart's content.
Having regained his youth, he would have more time to spend with his sons and no longer had to worry about the issue of a successor. Moreover, only his former self, now at his peak, would give him more confidence to protect his sons.
"Gurarara, thanks, Young Lady."
Looking at Luna, who was looking back at him, Whitebeard showed a heartfelt smile of gratitude.
But it was a pity, alas, if this Young Lady were an orphan, then he could have called her his Granddaughter.
Many people on the Grand Line said that Whitebeard randomly adopted sons, but in fact, he was very particular about it. He only took in those who were homeless, or who no longer had family. If they did have family, they had to be willing. But it was a pity that Teach, such a rebellious son, still appeared, alas.
"I also want to thank you. If you ever need anything, just say the word." Shanks also gave a friendly expression, but there were some things he would clarify.
"It's nothing, just a small gift," Luna said with a smile, after all, their recovery was also something she wanted to see.
