Back on Sky Island, inside Elsama, Ren was listening very carefully to Miss System's words.
[Devil Fruits are classified based on three criteria: destructive power, enhancement, and balance between offense and defense, as well as healing.] Miss System's voice entered his mind without stopping, and she quickly added:
[Devil Fruits that can cause damage on the level of a small town are classified as 4-star fruits, but there are always exceptions, where fruits that balance between offense and defense are also classified as 4-star.]
[As for Devil Fruits with healing effects, they are classified based on their ability to heal people. For example, a fruit that can quickly heal fatal wounds without side effects is classified as 5-star, while lesser ones are 4-star or below.]
[For 5-star offensive fruits, they must cause at least city-level damage, like most Logia fruits with natural elements.]
Miss System spoke continuously while Ren recorded all this information in his photographic memory, missing nothing.
[But of course, there are unique and special fruits classified as 5-star that do not have the destructive power mentioned earlier. These fruits usually have a unique usage, such as reviving the user...]
[That's everything regarding the classification of Devil Fruits, Master-!] Miss System said in a cheerful voice.
"I understand now..." Ren sighed in relief after Miss System finished her explanation. He now understood how the system's classification worked, which would help him know the capabilities of each Devil Fruit just by seeing its rating.
"Now I need to complete the statuses of the rest of the crew members... Miss System, display Zala's status." Upon hearing Ren's words, Miss System wasted no time, and soon the familiar screen appeared in front Ren's eyes.
[[Name: Zala]
[[[Age: 26.]
¶[Occupation: Not specified yet.]
¶[Affiliation: Sin Pirates.]
¶[Status: Stable.]
¶[Title: Miss Doublefinger.]
¶[Bounty: 35,000,000.]
¶[Physical Power Level: 35,500 (D)]
¶[Devil Fruit: Toge Toge no Mi.]
¶[Devil Fruit Rating: *****.]
¶[Skills: Shave (Low) - Moonwalk (Low).]
[[Haki: None.]
The next was Zala. Although Ren did not pay much attention to this crew member, he planned to make her as strong as the rest of the crew in the future, so he had given her Moonwalk and Shave earlier, along with a low-level energy drink that significantly boosted her physical abilities. She didn't have much left to break through to level C.
"Show me the final status, Miss System."
[Roger~!] As soon as her soft voice reached his mind, a new message appeared on the blue
screen.
¶[Name: Kalifa.]
¶[Age: 25.]
¶[Occupation: Not specified yet.]
¶[Affiliation: Sin Pirates.]
[Status: Hypnotized.]
¶[Title: None.]
[Bounty: None.]
¶[Physical Power Level: 42,500 (D)]
¶[Devil Fruit: None.]
¶[Devil Fruit Rating: None.]
¶[Skills: Shave (Low) - Moonwalk (Low) - Storm Kick (Low) - Iron Body (Low) - Finger Gun (Low) - Kami-e (Low).]
¶[Haki: None.]
Kalifa was worthy of being a CP-9 member, having learned the Marine six styles like the rest of the members. Although her physical strength was the weakest among them, the difference wasn't very significant, except for Rob Lucci, who had physical strength several times stronger than Kalifa.
"It seems she hasn't eaten a Devil Fruit yet... I remember she was going to eat it when she returned to Enies Lobby with Robin in the OG. Luckily, I intervened this time and took it from the World Government before she could eat that trash fruit," Ren said with a slight smile on
his face.
"But she needs some taming first..." he sighed when he saw her status indicating she was hypnotized.
...
After finishing checking the statuses of his crew members, Ren left the house in the dimension inside Elsama and used his Observation Haki to see everything happening on the
island.
He saw Nami manipulating lightning and swinging her sword. He guessed that this girl had been training non-stop since he gave her the Lightning Fruit, which made him happy.
Then he looked at Robin, who was training with the Armament Haki he had given her a while ago. He saw a grayish-black aura forming on her hand and staying for a short time before disappearing, so he guessed she would need a few more days of training to make the Haki stronger and usable in battle.
It wasn't just Robin and Nami who were training; all the girls were doing so except for Lorena. "Speaking of Lorena, I now have the Memory Key, so I can unlock her memories..." Ren said with a hint of hidden excitement.
"But I need to delay this a little considering the state of this naughty girl..." Ren sighed as he focused his Observation Haki and saw Mikita training alone with a gloomy expression on her
face.
He could teleport to any place in this dimension since he was its owner, so with a single thought, he disappeared from his spot and appeared in front of Mikita the next moment.
"Eeeeh?!" A surprised sound escaped Mikita's mouth upon seeing Ren's sudden appearance, but she quickly returned to her gloomy state and greeted him.
"Hello, Captain Ren." She faked a cold tone as she greeted Ren.
Ren looked at her silently and did not respond to her greeting. Mikita frowned and began to feel a bit nervous under Ren's serious gaze.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Had she perhaps exaggerated her sadness too much? Would he hate her because of this? What would she do if he started to hate her?
These questions swirled in her mind, which was racing with different thoughts. Although she appeared calm on the outside, only she knew the chaos inside her mind at this moment.
She had never experienced love before, so she had no idea how to handle these situations. It was natural for her to become anxious and feel uncertain.
"You."
Ren said one word.
"Me...?" Mikita replied with a confused expression on her face.
"Yes, you." Ren responded calmly again.
"Huh... What's with me...?" Mikita was really confused by Ren's way of speaking to her now,
and fear grew in her heart. She prayed internally that her assumptions were wrong because
she didn't know how she would live from now on without him.
She had already fallen for him.
"You, Mikita, I want you."
"W-what--"
"!!!!"
Mikita's eyes widened and she couldn't finish her sentence because Ren's mouth covered hers.
Was he kissing her?
He was actually doing it!
That's what Mikita screamed in her mind. Her body froze and started trembling from
excitement and nervousness...
She could feel his tongue exploring every corner of her mouth and playing with her.
Unconsciously and instinctively, she wrapped her tongue around his and began to return the kiss while holding the back of his head.
After several seconds, Ren broke the kiss and looked at Mikita, whose face was completely
red.
"I- -I- -I..." Mikita was stuttering heavily and couldn't form a coherent sentence. Without warning, she used Moonwalk and fled from Ren.
She was extremely embarrassed...
Ren sighed as he watched the embarrassed Mikita run away, but he didn't try to stop or follow
her.
"She'll come back to me soon...hahaha" Ren laughed and muttered in a low voice. He could
see that Mikita's resentment towards him had disappeared with just a small kiss.
Love...
What a confusing and irrational thing.
....
"So, are we leaving now, Captain?" Nami looked at Ren, who had called her a short while ago.
It wasn't just her who was present; all the girls were in the house inside El-sama.
Mikita was still extremely embarrassed and didn't dare look at Ren directly. Meanwhile, Robin was observing the change in Mikita with a curious look. She wanted to
know what had happened to her.
Each girl had her own thoughts, but Ren's voice interrupted these thoughts:
"Before we return to Alabasta, there's something important I need to do first." "Something important? What is it?" The girls wondered, with Nami and Nojiko feeling confused as Ren kept looking at them with a small smile.
It wasn't that they didn't like their lover smiling at them, but this made them suspicious that
something was about to happen.
And they were right.
Something was going to happen that would shock the entire crew, especially the sisters, to
the point of shedding tears of joy.
Back to Ren, he took out the Revive Scroll from The Infinity Space and looked at Nojiko, who
was wearing the ring that stored Bell-mère's soul.
"Give me the ring, Nojiko" He said calmly under the gaze of all the girls. Nami, Nojiko, Robin,
and Kaya's hearts skipped a beat upon hearing what he said. They could somewhat guess what was about to happen.
With a trembling hand, Nojiko gave him the ring under Nami's burning gaze. The two sisters
were extremely excited at this moment; only they knew how much they missed seeing their "mom" alive in a human body.
Bell-mère's soul emerged from the ring and greeted Ren. He nodded at her with a smile and
threw the Revive Scroll towards her.
"This...?" Before Bell-mère could react to the scroll that Ren had thrown at her, a golden light
shone from the depths of her transparent soul.
This golden light overshadowed all the light in the house, forcing the girls to close their eyes
quickly.
"What's happening here?!"
"What is this light?" "Could my guess really be right..."
Although the girls had their eyes closed, their mouths were not.
Regarding Ren, he did not need to cover his eyes because he did not have ordinary eyes in the
first place, thanks to the "Hell Eyes" skill that allowed him to shoot burning fire beams from his eyes.
His eyes were no longer a significant weakness like those of other humans.
Ren was evolving into something beyond human, step by step, becoming something new...
He looked at what was happening in the beam with a focused expression. He saw that Bell-
mère's soul, wrapped in that light, was undergoing some changes.
Her soul's appearance changed, and she seemed to become younger in her face while maintaining her mature body. No, she didn't just maintain it; her MILF body was enhanced. Her breasts became larger and fuller, while her hips and buttocks also became more
voluptuous.
Her tomboyish hairstyle was gone, replaced by long hair that changed to a bright, blood-like
red color. Bell-mère's new eyes were sharp and had a crimson hue that matched her hair color, adding extraordinary beauty and unique charm to her mature appearance.
As if by magic, clothes appeared and covered her new body.
The resurrection process continued for a few more seconds, while the golden light grew
weaker and weaker. It was as if Bell-mère had absorbed all that light for her Revive. But this was not just an ordinary Revive!
It was a rebirth! Ren had known for quite some time all the details about the resurrection
scroll he used on Bell-mère.
Firstly, one condition for using this resurrection scroll was that the person's soul had to be
summoned from the underworld.
Secondly, the appearance of the soul being resurrected could be changed based on Ren's
wishes.
Thirdly, only Ren could use this scroll.
These conditions for using the resurrection scroll were excellent and worked in Ren's favor,
which is why he came up with the idea of transforming Bell-mère into something more beautiful, better, and hotter.
And it could be said that he succeeded.
The golden light dimmed significantly, allowing the girls to open their eyes again. What
greeted them was a sight that shocked them to the core. "Bell-mère..." Nami said in a trembling voice while looking at the familiar woman bathed in
the golden light.
"It really is her... although her appearance has changed a bit..." Nojiko couldn't control her emotions. It seemed her guess was correct; her love had truly resurrected Bell-mère. "Wow...Unbelievable" Robin watched everything with teary eyes. It would be hypocritical to say she didn't feel a bit of jealousy, but that jealousy quickly vanished, leaving only emotion, sadness, and a lot of excitement... She was looking forward to the day Ren would do the same thing with her mother...but first she should tell him about her mother first. "The power of resurrection! What a divine thing!" Mikita said in shock and disbelief. At this
moment, she had forgotten her previous embarrassment, and all that remained was this unique event unfolding before them.
Zala and Vivi were also shocked and happy for Nojiko and Nami. Although Zala was still a new
member of the crew, this did not stop her from showing joy and empathy towards her
crewmates, with whom she was already forming a strong bond. "Nami... Nojiko..." Bell-mère's voice, filled with longing, brought all the girls out of their thoughts, and they quickly looked at the source of the voice.
Bell-mère was standing there with a living, physical body. She looked at Nami and Nojiko
with eyes full of maternal love, tenderness, and longing.
Without any more words, Nami immediately stood in front of Bell-mère and hugged her, burying her tear-streaked face between her breasts.
Nojiko also tried to hold back her tears but couldn't. She had always dreamed of this moment... even before meeting Ren, she had dreamed of Bell-mère returning to them and being by their side.
She reached Bell-mère and Nami, who were hugging, and joined them silently. The three embraced for several minutes in a familial scene filled with many mixed emotions. "I'm back."
Bell-mère's words confirmed the occurrence of a Rebirth miracle in this world.
*Snap!!*
Another thin red thread of fate was broken, and the butterfly effect began to invade this world
more rapidly...
