Section 8: Success or Failure?
Aladdin's magic lamp is not a product of the fairy family, nor is it a magical artifact with the function of dripping blood. Moreover, the so-called warehouse manager, the blue giant genie, is also a soft and timid character who stores his entire family property in this small magic lamp, making him feel very insecure.
He finally made up his mind and used the ability of his mother nest fruit to develop Aladdin's magic lamp into his own sub-body.
So far, he has subdued more than 10 fonts. Longma, Kristina, Kulokas, Tom, Shenping, Dongli, Buluoji, Fokusi, Walpo, and Borsalino are all racial warriors and outstanding talents.
The number of mother nest children had already reached its limit, but after gaining insight into the mystery of life return, Shino's strength increased again, and he was able to further tap into the potential of the Mother Nest Fruit. As a result, the original 10 child bodies were added with two more, making it absolutely feasible to absorb the lamp spirits.
Now, a new special member will be added to this sub-body family - an item with spiritual intelligence - Aladdin's magic lamp (in fact, it has its original identity, which is a foreshadowing and will be revealed later).
No surprise, Shénbǎo received the Blue Giant's Soul Crystal Orb. However, the Blue Giant itself was a spiritual entity and could be considered as a large, talking Soul Crystal Orb. Thus, Shénbǎo obtained an inwardly colorless, outwardly blue-glowing basketball-sized Soul Crystal Orb. Meanwhile, the Blue Giant also lost a volume equivalent to that of a basketball, which didn't matter much, and it was hard to notice even with careful observation.
After doing all these things, Shino finally put down his mind. With the loyal blue giant guarding the divine lamp, outsiders can't open it at all, and more importantly, the divine lamp has already had a close connection with Shino. In case of loss, relying on consciousness positioning, its position can be confirmed quickly.
Put the treasure in the magic lamp, and it will be safe and sound.
It's time to continue implementing the plan for eternal youth!
More than 800 naval officers, the daily food expenses alone are staggering. Even if one has assets equivalent to two national treasuries, seeing the cost of buying a meal is also extremely painful.
The only thing worth celebrating is that the newly obtained Griffin's bow figurehead, which he installed on his flagship, brought a speed boost to the entire fleet, five times faster than before! Therefore, Shino and his party were able to arrive at the grave and birthplace of the Millennium Dragon, Gunjima Island, three days later.
Warship Island is one of the base fortresses belonging to the Marine Branch (which was abandoned at the time Luffy came). The current island chief of Warship Island is an extremely thin old man named...
"What was it again?" In a flash, Shen Bao forgot the person's name. "Forget it, anyway, he's just an extra, no need to remember."
After exchanging a brief greeting with the local troops, he rushed to the tomb of the Millennium Dragon. The Dragon Palace Island, which emerges from the sea only once every thousand years due to the receding tide, is still submerged underwater since it's not yet been a thousand years.
Although there are no living Millennium Dragons, the sea is filled with their remains and dragon eggs. Perhaps ordinary people can't make good use of them, but for Valpo who can swallow steel, it's a piece of cake.
The salvage work lasted for a whole month. Except for a few ancient fossils that had completely petrified, Shen Bao harvested 1367 dragon corpses and 289 dragon eggs. Millennium dragons are extremely rare, with only over 300 alive in the world. With Shen Bao grasping all the dragon eggs, it can be said that he has almost taken control of the entire millennium dragon species' lifeline.
He ordered Valpo to swallow the entire dragon corpse, absorbing the remaining life essence, and also ate 89 dragon eggs. The remaining 200 dragon eggs were not eaten because they had a great use. Forming the Millennium Dragon Rider Corps will occupy the most important position in the second plan of the precious crossing - Conquering the Empty Island.
The first plan's goal of eternal youth seems to have been achieved, yet also seems not to have been achieved.
After Valpo digested, he indeed looked younger, as if 5 or 6 years younger, and his physical quality attributes had improved many times. However, such an effect, through the action of the mother nest fruit, to balance on Shen Bao's body, takes time. And then through Shen Bao this transit station, transfer to other sub-body, even more need time.
In short, one sentence: The completion status of the plan is unknown.
"Although the result was embarrassing, the gains during the process were quite rich. Well, I've been leading troops on my own for so long, it's time to go back to headquarters, and I still haven't mastered the Navy 6th style."
The dazed captain Shirahoshi finally set off back to the main base, and in his body, an unknown small life energy was tirelessly transforming his body.
