Aboard the Radiant Eclipse.

“Captain, from now on, I’ve given myself entirely to you. Whatever happens, we’re in this together,” Stussy said, her face still flushed with excitement.

She never imagined she would ever have the chance to mock the Five Elders to their faces.

Listening to the impotent rage of the Five Elders.

Something she never dared to dream of before.

“Death… is it really that scary? Sooner or later, I’ll die for the Five Elders to see.”

Kuke glanced at the data.

– Captain: Kuke!

– Vice-Captain: Gion(Zoan-type Bird Bird Fruit, Mythical Phoenix Model: Power Level 228,624; Bounty: 780 million).

In about a month’s time.

Her power had increased by over ten thousand, and her bounty had risen.

– Officer: Hancock (Paramecia-type Love Love Fruit: Power Level 42,613; Bounty: 150 million).

Her power had also increased by over ten thousand, not much less than Gion’s.

Gion had just obtained her ability, so she was in a phase of rapid growth. Hancock, on the other hand, was realizing her natural talent. She had already reached the level of the Seven Warlords of the Sea at just seventeen years old.

Faster than in the original timeline.

– Auxiliary Intelligence Officer: Shakky (No Devil Fruit Ability; Power Level 60,882; Bounty: 540 million).

Due to her age, her power had decreased slightly.

– Sniper: Queen of Happy Street, Stussy (No Devil Fruit Ability; Power Level 56,752; Bounty: 600 million).

Happy Street could’ve been used for intelligence, but with so many World Government spies in it and the target being too large, Kuke decided to disband Happy Street.

Stussy mastered both the Six Powers of the Navy and Haki, with her Finger Pistol technique able to kill enemies from kilometers away.

In terms of range, accuracy, and power, she was stronger than many famous snipers on the seas.

– Helmsman: Boa Sandersonia (Zoan-type Snake Snake Fruit, Anaconda Model: Power Level 4,852; Bounty: 35 million).

– General Crew: Boa Marigold (Zoan-type Snake Snake Fruit, King Cobra Model: Power Level 4,523; Bounty: 30 million).

Their power growth wasn’t rapid.

However, the two sisters were poised to become reliable mid-tier combatants of an Emperor crew in the future.

– Assistant Cook: Lily Enstomark (Giant Tribe, Mini Mini Fruit: Power Level 13,564; Bounty: 60 million).

Previously, Lily lacked training, only having talent.

After a month of training, her power increased considerably. She was now preparing to learn Haki, and another surge in growth was on the horizon.

– Apprentice Pirate: Koala (No Devil Fruit Ability; Power Level 101; Bounty: 100 Berries).

Koala’s main focus was on recovering her frail body, so she only engaged in light training. Considering her age, her future was full of potential.

– Cook: Makino (No Devil Fruit Ability; Power Level 53; Bounty: 500,000 Berries).

She lacked any notable talent.

Kuke was considering whether he should find her a Devil Fruit.

The crew alone provided Kuke with a combat power of roughly 380,000.

Combined with Kuke’s newly awakened Conqueror’s Haki and his mastery of Advanced Conqueror’s Haki coating.

Kuke’s total power level was around 420,000.

– Constitution: 55.

– Charisma: 91.

[Achievement Points: 196,234]

Killing a Celestial Dragon had earned Kuke almost 200,000 achievement points.

Less than 4,000 to go.

Before entering the New World, he’d definitely reach 200,000.

Every member of the Radiant Eclipse would now have one revival opportunity each month.

The Sun and Moon Pirates were growing fast.

Their high-end combat strength was nearing that of the Emperor crews, though they still lacked mid-tier power.

…

…

“Captain, do you really want to disband Happy Street?” Stussy asked reluctantly.

The connections and influence she’d built on Happy Street over the years were not easy to come by.

“Disband it. The World Government’s infiltration of Happy Street runs too deep; it’s more trouble than it’s worth.”

“Understood, Captain.” Stussy picked up her handbag and prepared to leave.

“Wait a moment!” Kuke called her back, curiosity in his eyes. “Happy Street is rumored to be a man’s paradise, with all sorts of pleasures.”

He was curious to see how it compared to entertainment in his previous life.

Stussy immediately showed a mischievous expression. “Captain wants to give it a try? Before disbanding, why not have a taste yourself?”

Kuke looked at Stussy.

She was the Queen of Happy Street.

A hint of red crept up Stussy’s cheeks as she avoided Kuke’s gaze. “I… I don’t know how.”

“You could learn.”

Stussy made a hasty retreat.

An hour later.

Happy Street was officially disbanded.

Stussy told them to disperse and start new lives across the East Blue.

The members of Happy Street weren’t particularly powerful, so they didn’t interest Kuke much, but in East Blue, they were more than capable of protecting themselves. For the women regaining their freedom, a new life had begun.

Stussy watched the pleasure ships drift away.

She felt a sense of loss.

She stole a glance at Kuke, who was instructing Koala in her training.

And there was also a sense of anticipation—her new life was beginning as well.

Carefully, she hid a small illustrated book in her handbag.

The only thing she brought from the pleasure ship.

“I wonder if I can learn…” Stussy muttered, her face turning a deep shade of crimson.

…

…

The Radiant Eclipse sailed swiftly along the inland river, heading towards the ocean.

A few hours later.

They left the Goa Kingdom.

After sailing for a couple of hours, a large, mysterious ship approached them head-on.

On the deck, several cloaked figures, concealing their appearances, locked eyes with Kuke.

“Revolutionary Army?”

Kuke recognized them.

And he also saw a woman among the Revolutionary Army members.

Both Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, and Kuke had the same glint in their eyes—perhaps there was a new recruit on the horizon.
