Chapter 34 - Chapter 34: A New Function, Ready to Set Sail!

"Yeyin, I'll directly assign you a graduate's status and give you the rank of colonel," Zephyr said straightforwardly. "We'll prepare a warship for you and assign you a basic crew, including a helmsman and navigator."

"Do you have any other requests?"

"Not really. I just want to know, what mission am I supposed to execute?" Yeyin asked, slightly puzzled.

"It's up to you. There are plenty of missions out at sea now," Zephyr replied. "As long as you capture someone with a bounty exceeding ten million, I'll count it as a completed mission."

Right now, there weren't any specific tasks assigned, even the matter of Ohara was being handled by Tsuru. So, there wasn't much need for Yeyin to be involved.

Thus, this task was arranged.

"Ten million, huh?" Yeyin responded. "Give me a bounty poster."

Yeyin was decisive. Since he had already made up his mind, he would fully commit to the task.

"You'll get the bounty poster on your warship," Zephyr said. "Oh, by the way, I have a gift for you!"

"This is the famous sword, Qiuyan. It's a fine-grade sword!" Zephyr said, breaking the sword in his hand and tossing it to the ground.

This wasn't meant as disrespect to Yeyin; Zephyr knew this was part of Yeyin's unique training method.

"Thank you," Yeyin said, picking up the broken pieces from the ground.

["Ding! You have picked up the discarded broken sword from Zephyr. You have obtained the Supreme Grade Sword, Muramasa! You have gained Swordsmanship +8."]

["Congratulations, host. You have triggered a critical hit while picking up the item, earning 50,000 pickup points."]

Yeyin was momentarily stunned. Normally, even picking up items from high-ranking officials would yield around a thousand points at most. But now, suddenly he had earned 50,000!

["Ding! You now have enough pickup points to unlock a new function. Would the host like to proceed?"]

Before Yeyin could fully absorb the shock, another system notification chimed in.

"A new function?"

"Unlock it!" Yeyin responded without hesitation.

["Ding! Consumed 200,000 pickup points. Unlocking the shop."]

As the system sound echoed, a panel appeared before him, displaying a new interface. When he clicked on it, an array of dazzling items filled Yeyin's vision.

[Universal Store

Random Devil Fruit: 200,000 pickup points

Haki Enhancement Card: 100,000 pickup points]

...

[Sharingan: 200,000 pickup points

Eight Gates: 300,000 pickup points]

...

[Imperial Arms Murasame: 300,000 pickup points]

...

Everything in the store was extraordinary, but the price in pickup points was just as grand. Most items cost six figures, and even after a year of constant collecting, he'd be lucky to reach that amount.

"Yeyin, do you have any more questions?" Zephyr asked, noticing Yeyin's sudden stillness.

"No more questions. I'm ready to set sail," Yeyin replied firmly. Although there were plenty of discarded items to pick up here, most of them had already been collected once. The second round of collecting didn't have the same impact.

With that in mind, Yeyin was eager to set sail, hoping to find more "fresh trash" to collect.
