The interstellar space station serves as a hub for exchange between various planets within this universe.
Within the station, one can encounter a variety of aliens and purchase all sorts of unique goods from them.
Ships from planet Ganon are mostly acquired through the interstellar space station.
Of course, planet Ganon has also researched this technology, but due to a shortage of researchers and materials needed for shipbuilding, there aren't many ships successfully manufactured on Ganon.
Chen Yu was naturally eager to attend such an intergalactic convention.
Gagura and Kai, having arrived in this universe through a stargate, were naturally curious about this kind of exchange convention.
Thus, the trio, along with Captain Senro, took a spaceship to the interstellar space station before the convention began.
According to Captain Senro, goods at the intergalactic exchange could be bartered or purchased with special tokens unique to the convention.
Acquiring tokens was straightforward: sell valuable items to the space station's bank at a lower price to get these tokens.
The bank then consolidates these purchased goods to sell at a higher price.
The most valuable commodity from planet Ganon, Chen Yu guessed, would undoubtedly be the Fruit of Life.
Indeed, Captain Senro brought many Fruits of Life to the convention, but besides those, he also brought some branches and leaves from the Tree of Life.
As Captain Senro explained, branches and leaves cut from the Tree of Life could survive as potted plants for a year.
They also purify the air, emit a refreshing fragrance, and have invigorating effects.
Therefore, branches and leaves from the Tree of Life are also highly sought after at every annual intergalactic exchange.
Of course, the most coveted were the Fruits of Life.
After all, these fruits are miraculous, not only detoxifying various poisons but also restoring vitality and prolonging life when consumed.
"Captain Senro, how much longer can one live by eating a Fruit of Life?"
Curious, Chen Yu asked Captain Senro.
"Eating one would extend your life by about a hundred years,"
Captain Senro answered.
"A hundred years!"
To aliens or Ultramen, a hundred years of life is hardly significant.
But for humans on Earth, extending life by a hundred years is virtually unthinkable!
If the Fruit of Life were on Earth, one could undoubtedly sell for billions, if not more!
On Earth, the Fruit of Life could only be described as priceless.
Chen Yu couldn't help but be tempted.
He had already solved the issue of aging with the Zegela serum, which could maintain his youthful appearance for a hundred years.
However, the problem of life span remained unsolved for Chen Yu.
Although Chen Yu could transform into Ultraman Tiga and had access to various Ultraman transformation experience cards, fundamentally, he was still human.
It's evident from many Ultraman series that, often, Ultramen cannot prevent their human hosts from aging and dying.
Of course, those who become one with an Ultraman or even get taken to the Land of Light are exceptions.
"Actually, the Fruit of Life has given the people of Ganon a prolonged lifespan but has also led to degeneration in another aspect,"
At that moment, Captain Senro, piloting the spaceship, added.
"Which aspect has degenerated?"
Chen Yu was puzzled.
"In terms of reproducing, the birth rate on planet Ganon is not high," Captain Senro continued, "This is a measure taken by the Tree of Life to prevent overpopulation on Ganon."
"What?"
Chen Yu couldn't help but exclaim.
So, eating the Fruit of Life might shorten your...?
Better not to eat it then... A hundred years of life seems to be a blessing too heavy to bear.
"Of course, this is a unique reproductive rate to our planet Ganon; other planets' inhabitants consuming the Fruit of Life won't have such concerns," Captain Senro added, "Because our planet Ganon's history is very long, this degeneration in birth rate has occurred over time."
"That's a relief then..."
Chen Yu sighed in relief.
Since he wasn't a resident of planet Ganon, consuming a few Fruits of Life wouldn't affect him.
For this intergalactic exchange convention, Queen Amaterasu, upon learning that Chen Yu, Gagura, and Kai were also attending, voluntarily provided three hundred Fruits of Life.
Chen Yu, Gagura, and Kai each received a hundred.
Initially, Chen Yu thought it was too much, but then Captain Senro told him that the Tree of Life bears fruit every year, and the fruits from previous years have been stored in an underground ice cellar for preservation.
Thus, planet Ganon has a significant stockpile of Fruits of Life, just that they are inconvenient to transport from the ice cellar.
Generally, it's easier to directly pick the Fruits of Life from the Tree of Life for use.
After traveling through space for a while, Chen Yu and the others arrived at the interstellar space station.
This space station actually exists within an independent dimensional space.
It's bustling with crowds, incredibly spacious, and has hundreds of floors.
"Should we go to the interstellar bank to exchange tokens first?"
Following Captain Senro, Chen Yu looked around and asked.
"No need," Captain Senro shook his head, "The Tree of Life is unique to Ganon, and the Fruits of Life are always in high demand every year. We can just barter with the Fruits of Life."
"Of course... if you want to buy some cheaper items, you can still consider exchanging some tokens," Captain Senro continued, "For that, you just need one Fruit of Life."
"I see, let's look around first then," Chen Yu nodded, "When we find something we need that's also reasonably priced, we can consider exchanging tokens."
"A wise decision."
Captain Senro also nodded.
Then, the group followed Captain Senro to the transport elevator.
Captain Senro expertly selected the floor, and with a flash of light, Chen Yu and the others arrived at the top floor.
"This is where spaceships and warships are sold," Captain Senro explained, "General Raigou seems to have realized something from this battle and asked me to buy some more spaceships and warships this time, to strengthen Ganon's defenses."
"It seems General Raigou has come to his senses."
Chen Yu smiled.
"Then should I change my Snake Heart Sword to a Snake Heart Gun?"
Gagura joked after hearing this.
"If possible, it indeed needs to be changed," Captain Senro, holding his sword at his waist, said, "After all, the times have changed. We cannot view current issues with old mindsets."
