"Huh?! Three?!"
"Kuma, what do you mean?"
"Could it be not only Betty and Rifan?"
"Is there anyone else who has the possibility of using the fruit of encouragement?"
Dragon turned his head and asked the bear curiously.
"That's right! Rifan can use the ability of Nojiko's Clone-Clone Fruit."
"And Nojiko has already awakened her devil fruit."
"Rifan once used the power of this awakened Clone-Clone Fruit on me."
"The current Rifan has been able to use the power of my devil fruit by turning into me."
"So, if that Miss Nojiko copied your body data, Betty, she will also be able to use the power of Encouragement Fruit."
Kuma nodded and spoke.
"Clone-Clone Fruit!"
"This Devil Fruit actually has such power?!"
"Interesting."
"We, Marine, and the World Government all underestimated this nurse, Nojiko.
"If Marine knows that Nojiko can use other people's abilities through transformation, her bounty will go far beyond this point."
Dragon sighed.
The others, like Dragon, were also quite surprised by the awakened version of Clone-Clone Fruit mastered by Rifan and Nojiko.
"This is really interesting."
"Nojiko's Devil Fruit has awakened."
"Could it be that the Devil Fruits of the other crew members of the Black Pearl Pirates have also awakened accordingly?"
"And Rifan, does he have the power to awaken Devil Fruit?"
"Hehe, I'm getting more and more curious about this man Rifan."
Betty licked the corners of her mouth, and she couldn't wait to go to the Black Pearl Pirates to meet Rifan.
"Rifan will go to Sabaody Archipelago next."
"Betty, after you finish what you're doing."
"You can find him in the Sabaody Archipelago."
"Also, if you can really joined the Black Pearl Pirates."
"I have one thing I want to ask you."
Kuma looked at Betty and said solemnly.
"Hey, it's rare that there is something that you to want to ask."
"Although I don't know what it is, I can assure you that I will help you."
Betty nodded and said with great interest.
"Come with me, I don't want too many people to know about this."
Kuma said, then turned and walked towards the distance.
When everyone saw this, they didn't stop them, and let Kuma lead Betty to the distance.
After waiting for no one else to be seen around, Kuma finally stopped.
"Tell me, Kuma-san, what do you want me to do for you?"
Betty stood behind Kuma and asked curiously.
"Betty, actually, I have a daughter."
"Huh? You actually have a daughter, no, you're actually married? Wait, what you asked me to do is related to your daughter? Is she on Rifan side?"
"That's right. Now she's on Rifan's boat."
"This is really interesting! Rifan has a lot of female crew members, let me guess who your daughter will be."
"No need to guess, my daughter's name is Jewelry Bonney, a female pirate who was previously known as the big stomach girl in the sea."
"So it was her! So, Rifan saved your daughter."
"My daughter seems to be getting along well with Rifan now, but I'm still a little worried about her. If you go to her side, please help me take care of her. I will also write a corresponding letter of introduction for you to Rifan and Bonney."
"Hehe, you are not worried that your daughter will fall in love with Rifan, are you? Let me tell you, Rifan is a good man, and it would be a good thing if your daughter can get together with Rifan. "
"The problem is, that man Rifan have too much woman."
"Well, this is a difficult problem. However, if your daughter really likes Rifan, I can't break them up."
"I understand, I just want you to take care of Bonney when she is in danger."
"It turned out to be this matter. Don't worry, I will do it. However, if Rifan is here, she must not encounter any danger.
"I just want to be safer."
"Understood, after all you are a father.
Betty smiled, and continued:
"Since you want me to take care of your daughter."
"Why don't you talk to me about her."
"If I can get to know her better, the communication between me and her will be more harmonious."
"Besides, I'm also very interested in Rifan's affairs."
"In order to get along more friendly in the future."
"Can you tell me what you saw and said at Rifan's place?"
"I think I can learn some ways to get along with Rifan from your words."
When Kuma heard Betty's words, he naturally did not refuse.
After carefully recalling the experience of getting along with Rifan.
Then he began to tell Betty what he saws.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The first half of the Grand Line.
Nine Snake Pirates.
"Leigh, you really are getting stronger and stronger."
"How the hell did you do it?"
The gunner of the Nine Snake Pirates, Rindo walked up to Lei, who had just defeated the captain of the enemy pirate ship, and asked curiously.
"This is thanks to Rifan!"
Leigh took a deep breath, adjusted her breathing a little, and said excitedly.
"Rifan? He did give us that strange potion to help us strengthen."
"But we haven't progressed so fast like you."
Rindo tilted her head, feeling more and more confused.
What she didn't know was that Leigh had not only obtained the G virus strengthening potion.
She also gained the power of the Germa 66 exoskeleton.
And it's the power of the Germa 66 exoskeleton with the power of lightning.
Originally, Leigh's speed was greatly increased because of the spring fruit.
After being stimulated by the power of lightning, her speed took a step forward.
With this new extra strength, Leigh fought more and more bravely when fighting.
Naturally, the more battle points she get, the more stronger she will be.
So the speed of her growth is naturally much faster than before.
Not to mention, Leigh was the person who signed the contract with Rifan.
As long as Rifan kills a specific opponent, he can bring her bonus points.
With this triple combinations, her strength is naturally growing by leaps and bounds.
It is no exaggeration to say that the current strength of Leigh has almost surpassed Boa Sandersonia and Boa Marigold.
This point, the two younger sisters of Boa Hancock who were watching Leigh not far away, were quite clear in their hearts.
"The man Rifan is indeed quite special."
"If my sister really becomes his subordinate captain."
"I don't know if sister will also become stronger quickly."
Marigold sighed and said.
"It should be, Rifan's strength already has the ability to make people stronger quickly."
Sandersonia nodded and said.
While the two were discussing, a daily news bird fell from the sky.
Seeing this, Leigh immediately used the ability of the spring fruit to jump high, took out a Berry coin and exchanged it for a newspaper from the news bird.
Earlier, Leigh had seen some people discussing in the reincarnator exchange group that Rifan replace Moria as Shichibukai.
As the person who made a contract with Rifan, now she see Newsbird.
Naturally, Leigh couldn't wait to see the latest news in order to confirm whether Rifan became Shichibukai.
And soon, Leigh saw the news that Rifan defeated Moria and became Shichibukai on the front page of the news.
"Rifan has really become a Shichibukai!"
Leigh opened her beautiful eyes wide and muttered to herself.
"Shichibukai? What are you talking about, Leigh?"
Marigold stepped forward and walked over curiously.
Her older sister, Sandersonia, followed closely behind.
"Marigold-sama, Sandersonia-sama, Rifan have become Shichibukai!"
Leigh turned around and immediately showed the newspaper in front of Marigold and Sandersonia.
Marigold: "What?! Rifan really became Shichibukai!?"
Sandersonia: "When did this happen?!"
Both Marigold and Sandersonia knew that Rifan would become Shichibukai sooner or later.
As early as before, Rifan had revealed the relevant situation when he encountered the Nine Snake Pirates.
Originally, Rifan's replacement of Hancock was also a plan to become Shichibukai.
Thanks to Rifan having no such interest, the Snake Pirates were able to save themselves.
Just when the two sisters were going to read the newspaper in Leigh's hands carefully.
A beautiful figure quickly passed by the two of them, and came in front of Leigh.
"Give the newspaper to me, I want to read it."
The person who came was Hancock, the world's number one beauty empress.
Seeing that it was Hancock who asked for it, Leigh naturally raised her hand and gave the newspaper to Hancock without any objection.
Hancock looked serious, read the newspaper word by word, and sighed in her heart.
"That man didn't lie."
"The Marine and World Government are really willing to let him replace one of the Shichibukai as the new Shichibukai."
Hancock exhaled and muttered.
Thinking of the fact that Rifan could defeat the Nine Snake Pirates before breaking up with him.
But not only he didn't take away her title, he even provided the G virus strengthening potion to allow all members of the Nine Snake Pirates to evolve.
He also used the power of Munch-Munch Fruit to help the three sisters eliminate the slave seal 'Celestial Dragons' hoof' on them.
'Rifan wasn't lying about Shichibukai. '
'Then the Celestial Dragons...'
'Could it be that he's really going to deal with the Celestial Dragons in order to make me allied with the Black Pearl Pirates?'
Thinking of this, Hancock felt her heart throbbing even more.
Because of this throbbing, she quickly looked at Leigh again.
You know, the reason why Rifan let go of the Nine Snake Pirates on the surface at the beginning was that Leigh was a fellow of Rifan.
And Rifan also helped Leigh gain great power.
For no reason, Hancock felt a little jealous of Leigh.
"That, that, the battle."
"I'll go and help them organize the battlefield."
Leigh was terrified by Hancock's stare, she smiled embarrassingly, and quickly found an excuse to leave.
However, just as Leigh made a move, Hancock caught her arm.
"Master Snake Princess?"
Leigh looked at Hancock with some puzzlement.
"Leigh, from your point of view."
"Does Rifan really want to set up a pirate fleet?"
Hancock narrowed her eyes and stared closely at Leigh, a compatriot of Rifan.
"That... I think so."
Leigh was a little puzzled as to why Hancock would suddenly ask this.
But she thought of the reminder that Rifan set up a large fleet of pirates from the copy space not long ago.
So Leigh nodded.
"Rifan definitely wants to set up a large fleet of pirates that is comparable to or even surpasses the Four Emperors."
"So, he wants to recruit a powerful pirate group."
"On the news he beat Shichibukai's Moria."
"Maybe, by now he has recruited Moria as a partner."
Leigh said firmly.
Other reincarnators may not be able to guess which one Rifan invited to be the No. 1 sub-captain of the Black Pearl Pirates.
But from Leigh's point of view, since Rifan can send an invitation to Hancock,
There is also a high possibility of sending an invitation to Moria, who is also a Shichibukai.
"What... what?!"
"Rifan has recruited Moria?!"
Hancock was shocked when she heard Leigh's words.
"Should...should be, Master Snake Princess, what's wrong?"
Leigh blinked, somewhat puzzled by Hancock's reaction.
"Damn it, how could Rifan invite that fat man to be his sub-captain."
"Didn't he invite this Empress!?"
Hancock didn't hear Leigh's words, but bit her thumb and muttered in a low voice.
This feeling is as if she found a toy that originally belonged to her, but it turned out to be someone else's in the blink of an eye.
All of a sudden, an inexplicable anxiety surged into her heart.
Then, she glanced at Leigh in front of her again, and asked involuntarily:
"Leigh, do you think Rifan likes you more than this empress, or does Rifan like this Empress?"
