Finally Reaches Admiral Level

Mary Geoise, the Room of Authority.

Sengoku sat in his chair, reporting the details of the mission to the Five Elders seated across from him.

"Excellent!"

"You've done an outstanding job this time!"

"The bloodline of Roger must be destroyed!" The portly elder clapped his hands, offering a lukewarm praise.

Sengoku nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

"Since we've captured him, let's interrogate him a bit and see if we can extract any useful information!"

"If there's nothing of value, then just execute him directly!" The sword-wielding elder calmly remarked as he wiped his eyes with a cloth.

"I propose that we publicly execute Fire Fist Ace!" Sengoku stated earnestly to the Five Elders.

"Public execution?" The Five Elders were taken aback by Sengoku bold suggestion.

"A public execution would mean declaring war on the Whitebeard Pirates!" The portly elder frowned as he spoke.

"Executing Fire Fist Ace will inevitably lead to war with the Whitebeard Pirates, regardless of the method!" Sengoku replied firmly.

Hearing this, the Five Elders exchanged glances. Sengoku reasoning was indeed sound! They were well aware of Whitebeard temperament—war was inevitable!

"Do you have the confidence to pull this off?" The sword-wielding elder narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Sengoku as he asked.

"At least in terms of combat power, as long as the World Government provides support, our Navy strength will undoubtedly surpass theirs!"

"Technologically, while the Whitebeard Pirates have teleportation talismans and Senzu Beans, we possess them as well, so that should roughly balance out!" Sengoku analyzed seriously.

The Five Elders nodded in agreement.

"Very well, we approve of your plan. Proceed, Sengoku!"

"But this mission must succeed—failure is not an option!" The long-haired, long-bearded elder rapped his knuckles on the table, speaking with utmost seriousness.

"This public execution of Fire Fist Ace must be grand and flawless!"

"And we'll broadcast it live to the entire world!"

"We must ensure that the people of the world witness the might of the Navy!" The portly elder declared firmly.

Sengoku was momentarily stunned but nodded in agreement.

Indeed, a worldwide broadcast would significantly boost the world anti-pirate morale if the Navy emerged victorious!

"Then, as you've suggested, we'll broadcast the public execution of Fire Fist Ace live to the world!" With a nod, Sengoku strode out of the Room of Authority.

....

The New World, Moby Dick.

Pryce sat in his room, having already heard about Ace situation from Marco.

It seemed the Summit War was unavoidable after all!

Pryce frowned as he sat on his bed, deep in thought. The only silver lining was that Marco had just handed over the earnings from the Senzu Beans and his wages for this period.

A staggering sum of over 40 billion Berries!

Pryce looked at the money—it was time to put it to good use.

The Summit War could break out at any moment, so rapidly increasing his strength was the top priority! When the time came, the entire Whitebeard Pirates would be drawn into the battle, and it would truly be a situation where everyone was in danger! Pryce immediately summoned the system interface.

Let's go for a gold ten-draw right away! First, I need to boost my strength.

Without hesitation, Pryce directly chose the gold ten-draw! Although the diamond ten-draw at the top looked incredibly tempting, he was still short on funds! Moreover, who knows when the Navy will execute Ace? There's no time to waste!

In no time, Pryce spent his 30 billion Berries on three gold ten-draws. Looking at the densely packed thirty rewards, none of the three ten-draws yielded any orange-tier rewards. However, with so many draws accumulated, his strength must have improved significantly!

Without hesitation, Pryce opened his attribute panel.

[System Owner: Pryce]

[Martial Arts: 10000/10000 (Top Tier)]

[Speed: 10000/10000 (Top Tier)]

[Stamina: 10000/10000 (Top Tier)]

[Swordsmanship: 10000/10000 (Top Tier)]

[Observation Haki: 8000/10000 (Top Tier)]

[Armament Haki: 8000/10000 (Top Tier)]

[Conqueror's Haki: 0/10000 (Top Tier)]

[Invisibility Fruit Development: 0/10000 (Top Tier)]

[Magma Fruit Development: 0/1000 (Intermediate)]

Pryce focused his gaze and saw that most of his stats were already at the top tier!

Feeling the immense power within his body, Pryce clenched his fist and nodded in satisfaction. Roughly calculated, taking on an Admiral alone shouldn't be a problem.

However, the thirty consecutive ten-draws didn't yield anything particularly good. It seems that to make further progress, he'll need to go for a trillion-Berry diamond draw!

Without hesitation, Pryce opened his task list again and checked the progress of his teleportation talismans.

After such a long time crafting, he was only five or six talismans away from unlocking the next item!

Action speaks louder than words. Without delay, Pryce started crafting a few more teleportation talismans. Sure enough, as soon as the last one was completed, the system's electronic voice rang out.

"Congratulations to system owner Pryce for completing the teleportation talisman crafting progress. You are now rewarded with the crafting method for the next item!"

"Your next item is the Hyperbolic Time Chamber!" The electronic voice declared solemnly.

The Hyperbolic Time Chamber!

Pryce was stunned. It was actually the Hyperbolic Time Chamber from Dragon Ball! That famous training ground located in the Heaven, a special space where time flows differently from the outside world—a place where one could rapidly increase their strength!

Moreover, this Hyperbolic Time Chamber had been modified by the crafting system! In addition to the difference in time flow, it even had a gravity adjustment device! It could also be used as a gravity chamber for training!

However, these time and gravity features would require improving the quality of the time chamber to achieve greater changes! If the time chamber had gravity, many of them could undergo short-term training and achieve rapid strength improvements! The specifics would need to be seen after it's made!

Right now, what the Whitebeard Pirates and Pryce himself lacked the most was time!

Pryce didn't hesitate and immediately decided to create one first to see how it would turn out.

To be honest, the cost of building this time chamber was astronomical! If Pryce hadn't kept over ten billion Berries, he probably wouldn't have been able to afford it now!

Action speaks louder than words!
