Chapter 31 - Chapter 31: Hundreds of Billions in Gold Secured, The Ringing of the Golden Bell!

"Thanks for your hard work, Roge."

"Roge, we owe it all to you."

Upon arriving at Sky Island, everyone thanked Roge profusely.

"It's nothing."

Exhausted, Roge waved his hand, forcing a very strained smile onto his face.

Fortunately, Linlin and Hajrudin were still young; otherwise, he truly wouldn't have had the strength to carry everyone up.

"Is this Sky Island? Big Brother didn't lie to me! It really is beautiful here."

Linlin stared with wide eyes, looking around in surprise.

It was like a dream or an illusion.

"So Sky Island really exists."

Looking at the scene before him, which was exactly like the rumors, Streusen muttered in a low voice, his lips dry.

"Captain, how did you know about this place?"

Rumors about Sky Island were no secret, but very few people believed them.

Among those who believed, almost no one knew the specific location of Sky Island.

Coming back to his senses, Streusen gave Reno a meaningful look.

Reno smiled but didn't say much.

He couldn't exactly say he was a transmigrator, could he?

"The outside world really is wonderful."

Even Jace, who was only interested in cultivation, was captivated by the dreamlike, heavenly scenery before him, unable to extricate himself.

"Alright, we're going to be spending a long time here. You'll have plenty of time to see enough of it."

"Follow me."

Everyone followed Reno, looking at everything like curious babies.

Half an hour later, Reno and his crew arrived at their destination.

"This is...!!!"

"My God!!"

Everyone's eyes were instantly captivated by the glittering gold before them. Their pupils reflected the golden shine.

"Gold! It's all gold!!!"

"We're rich! We're filthy rich!!!"

Unable to suppress their emotions any longer, everyone rushed towards the gold in front of them.

"Captain, it's real gold!!"

Hajrudin picked up a small piece of gold and bit it, nearly breaking his teeth.

"We hit the jackpot! With this much gold, it must be worth at least tens of billions of Berries, right??"

"More than that."

Roge shook his head, looking at the glittering ocean of gold before him. "At least hundreds of billions."

"Hundreds of billions? My God!"

Even having no concept of money, the figure of 'hundreds of billions' almost made them faint with happiness.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and pick up the gold!!!"

Quick-eyed and quick-handed, Jace rushed directly to the spot with the most gold, stuffing it into his pockets relentlessly.

"Me too!"

Seeing Jace get a head start, Linlin, Hajrudin, and Black Shadow followed suit.

Reno looked at them helplessly. At the rate they were stuffing their pockets, when would they ever finish?

Luckily, he had the System Storage, which could be used to store it all.

Otherwise, moving this much gold would have been a hassle.

Reno walked past the gold and headed straight for the massive Golden Bell.

Although the Golden Bell was also made of gold, it carried a different significance.

In the eyes of scholars, the value of the Golden Bell far exceeded that of an equivalent amount of gold.

Reno, knowing the original story, naturally understood what the Golden Bell before him signified.

Clang—

Clang—

Walking up to the Golden Bell, Reno didn't hesitate. He rang it directly.

The deep and melodious sound echoed endlessly in the sky, lingering for a long time.

Below, all the residents of Jaya Island looked up in shock upon hearing the sound, shaken to their cores.

"This is... the Golden Bell???"

"The Golden Bell has rung! This is the sound of the Golden Bell!!"

"Sky Island really exists! The legends were true all along!!"

"Up there! The sound is coming from above! Sky Island is in the sky!!!"

"Hahahahaha... Did you hear that? It's the sound of the Golden Bell!!"

"Our ancestor didn't lie to us!!"

The residents of Jaya Island streamed with tears, their emotions unable to calm down for a long time.

It turned out the Sky Island they had been searching for had been right above them all along.

The sound of the Golden Bell slowly faded, and finally, everything returned to silence.

In front of the Golden Bell, a mechanical voice rang in Reno's mind.

[Ding! Congratulations Host! Through travel and exploration, you have rung the historical relic, the Golden Bell. Reward: 100,000 Voyage Points.]

[Congratulations Host! You have unlocked a new item: Treasure Radar.]

Treasure Radar: Centered on the Host, the radar can scan everything within a thousand-meter radius. The Host can discover precious treasures based on system notifications. Depending on the value of the treasure, there is a probability of obtaining varying amounts of Fortune Value.

"Eh?? Is this the reward for travel and research?"

Reno rubbed his chin. Previously, the Voyage Points he obtained were all from recruiting crew members and obtaining Devil Fruits.

However, talented crew members and powerful Devil Fruits were things one could only hope for, not seek out.

"Looks like I need to put more effort into this aspect."

Study history when free, read more books.

Although the Voyage Points obtained at one time might not be as abundant, little drops of water make a mighty ocean.

A Treasure Radar that can explore a thousand-meter radius?

Reno called it brokenly overpowered!

With this thing, he could know of a treasure's existence before anyone else, allowing him to be one step ahead. It was like a divine tool.

Of course, besides these, what surprised Reno even more was the way to obtain Fortune Value.

Previously, to get Fortune Value, he had to rely on luck to trigger probabilities.

But now, as long as he obtained treasures, there was a probability of getting Fortune Value. The difference was significant.

Reno had truly tasted the sweetness of Fortune Value.

Whether it was sharing Linlin's "Iron Balloon" talent or respawning the Soul-Soul Fruit.

Both made Reno realize the importance of Fortune Value.

After finishing all this, he turned around.

He saw that Linlin and the others were already draped in gold, looking like little golden statues.

The current residents of Sky Island hadn't yet realized the value of this gold, so no one had taken it away.

"We're rich! This time we are really rich!!"

Overjoyed, Jace lay in the pile of gold, backstroking through it with an expression of pure enjoyment.

Streusen was even worse; the pile of gold he had gathered was taller than himself.

Roge looked at the countless gold pieces before him, shock filling his heart beyond measure.

The combined value of all this gold was definitely more than the Karst Kingdom's revenue for a hundred years.

This was truly ridiculous!!

Having watched Reno grow up since childhood, Roge found it harder and harder to see through this Young Master.

Things even he didn't know about, Reno handled with such familiarity.

However, he became even more certain in his heart that as long as he followed Reno, they would undoubtedly forge an unprecedented path.
