One Piece: All-girl Group, Awakening the Blue Dragon Fruit

After hearing this, Perona couldn't help but ask, "Since the captain is a navy, why did he break into Impel Prison in the first place?"

Weiwei took over the topic. She changed into El's appearance and said with a smile: "It was because of this devil fruit that the captain went to the Impel Undersea Prison. I think with the captain's personality, he might not be suitable to work under the vengeful Admiral Akainu."

After hearing what Weiwei said, everyone suddenly understood.

Indeed, judging by Al's actions of breaking into Impel Prison and sneaking into the Holy Land of Marijoa to rescue the Celestial Dragon slaves, the possibility of him being willing to serve as the Admiral of the Navy is indeed very low.

After all, the captain once said that the reason why the navy hero Garp has always served as vice admiral is because to become an admiral one must obey the orders of the Celestial Dragons.

In the next few days, Nami skillfully steered the Orange Windmill, crossed the calm doldrums, and finally led her companions into the vast waters of the North Sea.

However, Al still failed to wake up from his deep sleep, which became a huge stone in everyone's heart, making the atmosphere on the ship particularly heavy.

At Kaya's suggestion, Nojigo would carefully feed El with carefully prepared liquid food and juice every day to ensure that his body could get the necessary nutrition.

Seeing that he could still eat normally, everyone's worries were slightly alleviated.

However, as the days passed, a new problem emerged before them.

"If Al really has to sleep for three months, our current method alone will not be able to provide all the nutrients his body needs." Kaya said worriedly: "We may have to give the captain an infusion to supplement his nutrition."

Rebecca said with a guilty look on her face: "This is all because of me... If it weren't for protecting my country and my devil fruit, the captain wouldn't be in such a predicament."

Robin gently comforted her, "Rebecca, this is not your fault. Al said before the operation that his forbidden move would cause him to be unable to participate in the battle for three months. This means that he already knew what was going on. It's just that we lack the corresponding medical equipment to take better care of him."

Nami turned to Kaya and asked with a frown, "Do we have enough medicine inventory to support it?"

After a moment's contemplation, Ke Ya replied, "It's fine in the short term, but if it has to last for three months, I'm afraid it won't be enough."

She then added, "In order to better monitor the captain's physical condition, we also need some more advanced medical equipment."

Dashiqi made a suggestion: "The equipment in the naval base is usually very complete. Can we get some from them?"

Nami shook her head, her tone cautious: "If the navy knew that we needed medical equipment, it would probably arouse their suspicion. That wouldn't be a good thing for us."

Robin smiled slightly, with a cunning gleam in her eyes: "In that case, let's take a more direct approach. As pirates, wouldn't it be perfect for us to sneak into the nearby naval base under the cover of night and take away what we need?"

Her proposal was immediately agreed upon by everyone.

Nami then carefully studied the nautical chart in her hand, and finally chose a naval base that she would pass by on the way to the Kingdom of Lubnir as her target.

After adjusting the route, the Orange Windmill headed towards its new destination.

However, after sailing on the calm sea for several hours, a huge snail ship suddenly appeared in sight.

This snail was like a mobile sea fortress, and when it saw the trail of the Orange Windmill, it immediately accelerated and moved towards Nami and her group.

At this moment, the eldest daughter of the Vinsmoke family, Vinsmoke Reiju, gracefully appeared on the bow of a giant snail ship.

Chapter 108: Meeting Leijiu in the North Sea (Please recommend and collect)

She looked at the sailboat and the very ordinary pirate flag in front of her, and she was sure that it was the El Pirates, which had been the most popular recently.

I wonder why such a powerful pirate group would travel a long distance from the dangerous New World through the Calm Belt to the North Sea.

Sure enough, when the Snail Boat approached the Windmill Orange, she looked down and saw many familiar female faces standing on the opposite deck, but she did not see Captain Al who defeated Blackbeard.

Reiju said to the girls in front of her with graceful manners: "Dear friends of the El Pirates, I am Vinsmoke Reiju from the Vinsmoke family of the Germa Kingdom. I am very happy to meet you in the North Sea."

After hearing Reiju's self-introduction, Vivi was reminded of this strange country that had no fixed territory and drifted on the sea.

Robin, who is well-informed, talked to the other girls about this country that makes a living by mercenary warfare and has very advanced technology.

Kaya suggested that perhaps they could purchase medical equipment directly from them, so they wouldn't have to plunder the navy.

Weiwei had no objection and walked up to invite Reiju to board the Orange Windmill. She told her purpose: "Hello, Miss Reiju. I heard that the Vinsmoke Family has the most advanced technology in the North Sea. If it's convenient, we would like to buy some medical equipment from you."

Reiju was a little surprised to hear Vivi's words. The world of pirates has always been dominated by plundering. With their strength, even if they wanted to steal their own ship, it would not be a problem at all.

However, the Vinsmoke family's technology has always been developed with war as the core, and there have been no significant achievements in medical technology.

Despite this, Reiju did not show anything unusual. When she learned that Kaya wanted some medical testing equipment, she immediately contacted the country through Den Den Mushi and asked them to select the best equipment and send it to her location as soon as possible.

While waiting, Reiju chatted with the ladies on the ship about the scenery and culture of the North Sea.

She consciously did not ask about Captain Al's situation to avoid touching on sensitive topics.

Not long after, a lightning-like figure streaked across the sky. It was Niji who arrived quickly in combat uniform, holding two well-packaged devices in his hands.

His lightning blue ability gave him superhuman movement speed, so their father assigned him to this errand task.

When he saw the many beauties on the boat, his lustful nature was instantly exposed. His eyes almost popped out and he couldn't look away.

Reiju felt very embarrassed by her brother's rude behavior. She immediately stepped forward to snatch the device from his hand and drove him away.

Reiju returned to the deck and apologized to everyone, "I'm really sorry. Although he is my brother, they are no longer real humans."

Nami asked curiously, "Why did they become like this? I think your brother looks a lot like one of our friends, especially his eyebrows."

"Really?" After hearing what Nami said, Reiju thought of Nami who was also from the East China Sea. Perhaps she was talking about her younger brother. "You are talking about Sanji, right? He is also one of my younger brothers. However, he is different from the other brothers. Due to some special reasons, he left the family when he was young."

After handing the instrument in her hand to Kaya, Reiju considered it for a moment and decided not to invite everyone in front of her to visit the Vinsmoke family.

His younger brothers were all equally lustful. If they offended these powerful guests due to their inappropriate behavior, it would have an adverse impact on the family.

With the idea of establishing friendly relations with the El Pirates, Reiju politely declined their offer to pay money.

In her opinion, the Germa Kingdom has accumulated countless wealth through war mercenaries. In comparison, using these small medical devices to exchange for the favor of the strong is undoubtedly a more cost-effective deal.

Therefore, she just left a contact number and left so that both parties could communicate and cooperate conveniently in the future.

Keya quickly installed the equipment on Al and began to conduct a detailed physical examination on him.

Although she was invited by Al to serve as the ship's doctor, no one on the ship had ever had even a minor cold so far, which made her lack practical experience and she did not have a comprehensive understanding of what equipment was missing in the medical room.

At this moment, she secretly made up her mind that she must fully improve the configuration of the medical room after this incident.

Soon, as the monitoring equipment started up, Al's various physiological indicators appeared on the screen.

Seeing that all the data were fluctuating within the normal range, smiles finally appeared on everyone's faces.

Just one month after they left Beehive Island, Al finally woke up slowly from a deep sleep, as if returning from a long dream.

At this time, the Orange Windmill was docked on a quiet island near the Kingdom of Lubnir.

In this sea area, the pirate group of the Caribou brothers once ran rampant, but now they have been wiped out by El's companions.

However, without El's special ability, they had no way to obtain Caribou's fruit, so they decided to keep Caribou as a special sparring tool for Rebecca to practice Armament Haki.

It has to be said that having such a luxurious sparring partner as a person with the ability of a nature-type fruit has indeed allowed Rebecca's training progress to reach an unprecedented level.

Upon hearing the news that Al was awake, everyone gathered in the medical room and looked at their captain with joy.

While Al was listening to recent events, he wolfed down the food that Nojigo prepared for him.

Despite being in deep sleep for more than a month, he maintained his life through liquid food, juice and infusion every day.

But at this moment he still felt extremely hungry, as if he wanted to make up for the lost time and energy.

When hearing Kaya mention the topic of improving the medical room's equipment, Al gently comforted Kaya, who was feeling lost because of his deep sleep.

"It's my fault this time. If it was an ordinary illness, it would never cause me to be in a coma for such a long time. Don't blame yourself."

After filling his stomach, Al began to carefully sense his physical condition.

He could clearly feel three different fruit abilities circulating in his body, intertwining with each other.

But he seemed to be isolated by an invisible barrier, making him temporarily unable to use these abilities.

This should be a limitation set by the system, which cannot be easily circumvented. All you can do is wait patiently until the three-month deadline is up.

At this time, his body was still very weak, and he was unable to even activate the Six Styles.

[Task name: Collect swamp fruits]

[Task type: Kill]

[Mission objective: Kill the owner of the swamp fruit]

[Quest Reward: Swamp Fruit]

This pirate who enjoyed slaughtering the navy and praying to the evil god finally met his end.

After doing all this, he handed the swamp fruit he obtained to Weiwei. This fruit could free her country from the troubles of the desert.

After completing all this, Al took the Den Den Mushi from Vivi to contact Kuzan and initiated communication.

Soon, Kuzan's familiar and slightly teasing voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi: "Is that Al? You're seriously injured this time. How are you now?"

"Hello, Mr. Kuzan, you know how powerful Teach is. I was in a coma for a whole month before I gradually regained consciousness." Al explained to Kuzan with a smile.

There was a brief silence on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, and then Kuzan's voice sounded again, with some concern: "Er, next time you encounter a battle like this, don't fight too hard. Protecting yourself is the most important thing. Your life is not meant to be spent fighting those people."

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Kuzan. I will pay attention next time." After a pause, Al continued seriously: "As for what you mentioned before about returning to the navy, after careful consideration, I think it is more appropriate for me to maintain the status quo. There are some just things that I can do even if I am not in the navy. What's more, I still have my companions. As their captain, I can't abandon them and go to the navy headquarters alone."

When Kuzan heard his decision, he did not embarrass him. He just said softly, "I'm glad you can think it through. Indeed, I can see some things more clearly after leaving the Navy. If you have any difficulties in the future, remember to come to me. Mr. Garp and I are the only ones who know that you are a member of the Blade Team, so don't worry."

After ending the call with Kuzan, the girls around him all breathed a sigh of relief.

El looked at them with a smile and said, "I'll leave it to you all in the coming days. My current strength is probably about the same as Rebecca's."

The girls smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, Captain. With our strength, we can definitely protect you and you will recover soon."

After a relaxed and pleasant conversation, El took out another Den Den Mushi and sent a communication request. This was the one that Reiju had left for them.

The other end of the Den Den Mushi was quickly connected, but the voice that answered was not Reiju's gentle voice, but the voice of a middle-aged man. His voice was low and powerful: "Hello, is this Mr. El? I am Vinsmoke Judge."

El was not surprised, after all, although Reiju had feelings, she could not disobey her father's orders.

He responded politely, "Hello, Mr. Judge. I'm Al, and I'm glad to speak to you. I want to make a deal with you."

When he heard Vivi and the others talking about meeting Reiju, he remembered that pink figure.

Judge was very interested in what Al said. He asked, "We, the Vinsmoke family, are happy to form an alliance with you. What kind of deal is it? As long as we can do it, we will do our best."

El slowly told his plan: "I heard that your Germa Kingdom wants to dominate the North Sea, but now Doflamingo has been driven back to the North Sea by me from the New World Dressrosa. If you are willing, I can help you solve the threat posed by the Donquixote family to you."

Upon hearing this, Judge's face changed, and his voice instantly became serious: "Then may I ask Mr. Al, what price will our Vinsmoke family have to pay?"

El replied calmly: "My conditions are actually very simple: I hope Miss Reiju can leave the Vinsmoke Family and join our El Pirates. At the same time, you must release your control over her. Otherwise, I may consider forming an alliance with the Donquixote Family."

Upon hearing this, Judge was furious, but he suppressed his anger and said calmly, "Mr. El, your request is a bit unreasonable. Reiju is my favorite daughter."

El retorted, "Really? Since she is your favorite daughter, you should support her to join us. Isn't a pirate group that may become one of the Four Emperors more promising than her being in the Vinsmoke Family? What's more, you have three other sons. Even if Reiju leaves, it won't have much impact on your plan. Unless... you are already strong enough to not care about Doflamingo."

These words caused Jiazhi to fall into a long silence.

Finally, he replied in a slightly heavy voice: "Please give me some time to think about this issue." Then he hung up the phone.

Looking at the Den Den Mushi in his hand, since Judge did not refuse it immediately, Al understood that his plan had basically succeeded.

At this time, Weiwei looked at El curiously and asked, "Captain, weren't you still unconscious when Miss Reiju came to our ship?"

Nami smiled mischievously and said, "I guess there is no beauty in this world that our captain doesn't know."

El smiled slightly and continued to explain: "Reiju, she is actually a very pitiful person. Her father, Judge, in order to realize his dream of dominating the North Sea, personally transformed his own child into a cyborg without emotions. Because Sanji failed to show signs of successful transformation when he was a child, he was bullied by his brothers and eventually chose to escape from the Vinsmoke family."

Perona recalled the scene of her encounter with Reiju that day, feeling somewhat confused, she hesitantly said: "But, I think Miss Reiju doesn't look like a person without emotions, right?"

"Perhaps because Judge's initial surgery was not perfect, Reiju retained some of her emotions. Only her brothers who were successfully transformed are truly successful cyborgs." El answered, "However, even so, she is still affected by the transformation and cannot disobey her father's orders."

Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances and felt sympathy for Reiju's life experience and having such a father.

Robin pondered for a moment and raised a key question: "Then, is there a possibility that Judge took advantage of this and ordered Miss Reiju to lurk in our pirate group and do something that is detrimental to us?"

Al shook his head and said, "I'm not sure about that. Judge is a top scientist like Caesar. If he really does this, I'm afraid only Vegapunk can help us remove this control derived from the bloodline factor."

"Bloodline factor?" Hearing this unfamiliar word, everyone showed a curious look and focused their eyes on Al, waiting for his further explanation.

Al explained slowly: "You have all seen the news and know that my devil fruit ability is the same as the Four Emperors Kaido. This is actually because my devil fruit is an artificial devil fruit created by Vegapunk by extracting Kaido's bloodline factor. It was just because of the different color that it was identified as a failure by Vegapunk. However, by chance, this fruit was obtained by me."

"There is such a miraculous technology!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this. "Doesn't that mean the Navy can mass produce a large number of Devil Fruit users, instead of only being able to produce incomplete SMILE Fruits like Caesar?"

Chapter 110: Jiazhi's Plan (Please recommend and collect)

Al nodded, his expression solemn: "Indeed. Before, Vegapunk might not have known that this fruit, which he considered a failure, turned out to be so successful, but he should have known it now. So before the navy strengthens the security measures on Eggman Island, we'd better go meet Vegapunk as soon as possible."

Nami asked, "But how can we find Vegapunk? Do you know his exact location?"

Al remembered that the new world map used exclusively by the navy that he had obtained from Kuzan had detailed markings on the coordinates of Egghead Island.
