Chapter 133: The Metamorphosis of the Bei Group
Gale Tiger Roaring Fist: Act like a fierce tiger, striking quickly with both fists and palms. It emphasizes speed, accuracy, and ferocity, raging powerfully like a gale. Though the movements are large, the speed of the strikes is subtle, often catching enemies off guard and easily routing them until they are utterly defeated.
After hearing the system's words, Luna understood what items she still needed to deal with. She immediately took out the martial arts manual she had previously acquired, a manual perfectly suited for Sana.
White Tiger, Fist and Palm techniques, and Wind —it truly couldn't be more suitable for her.
She put the manual away temporarily, remembering the bloodline she also possessed. Luna immediately checked it, as she still didn't know exactly what kind of bloodline it was.
"demon clan bloodline: This is a drop of essence blood from a king of the demon clan native to the Pirate World, a clan that has been extinct for over a thousand years. It contains powerful dark energy and can grant the user a formidable physique and extraordinary physical recovery abilities."
Luna was extremely surprised after hearing this and nearly stopped moving. She truly hadn't expected that the demon clan had once existed on this great sea in the Pirate World, countless years ago.
There are many types of demon clans, but they are undoubtedly all very powerful, especially the demon clan of the Supreme Primordial Era in her memory.
She then considered who among the Pink Hat Pirates would be most suitable to consume this demon clan bloodline to become stronger, and without a doubt, it was Kuina.
Kuina belongs to the Shimotsuki Clan. Based on the fact that Zoro seems to be able to release a special type of Oni aura in the future Wano Country arc, Luna couldn't help but suspect that one of the Shimotsuki Clan's ancestors might have been an Oni.
Of course, there is another possibility: judging by the culture of Wano Country, it is clear that Old Dog Oda created Wano Country based on the template of the little devil country he lives in.
Those little devils certainly have a lot of Oni culture, even if it is quite disgusting.
But this also made her wonder if the so-called Oni aura in the Pirate World was an ability possessed by all the samurai living in Wano Country, with the Shimotsuki Clan being the ones who could best manifest this power.
Because if Luna remembered correctly, the original Daimyo or Shogun of Wano Country, before the Kozuki Clan, seemed to have been held by the Shimotsuki Clan.
Furthermore, it is highly likely that Wano Country was established by members of the Shimotsuki Clan.
But regardless of which theory is true, Luna felt that if they traced the history, Wano Country, or perhaps the Shimotsuki Clan, must have some connection to the demon clan.
Moreover, there was another reason for deciding to let Kuina consume it: Kuina currently possesses the demon blade thousand blades, which is inhabited by the power of a Thousand-Year Evil Spirit. Combined with the fact that she can now activate her Red Eyes and other related factors, Kuina is undoubtedly the most suitable girl in the Pink Hat Pirates to consume this demon clan bloodline.
Thinking of this, Luna quickened her pace and soon returned to the pirate ship. She walked into Sana's and Kuina's rooms respectively, placing the martial arts manual and the demon clan essence blood on their desks.
She immediately activated her communication device and sent two messages.
"Sana, I forgot to give you a martial arts technique last time. I put it on the desk in your room. You can take it and cultivate it later."
"Kuina, the glass container I placed on your desk holds the essence blood of an ancient demon clan. You are the most suitable person in the crew to consume it. Your current power is very similar to that of the ancient demon clan, and you also possess a certain amount of dark energy, making this drop of demon clan essence blood perfect for you."
After finishing this, Luna planned to talk to the prisoners. After leaving Kuina's room, she headed to the ship's brig where Aokiji and the others were being held.
The robot standing guard at the door opened it for her. Luna walked in and saw all six men, including Aokiji, looking towards her.
"Oh my, it seems Kaya was right. You've been conscious for a while now. You've received medicine and food, and you should all be fully recovered within three days," Luna said in a teasing tone, looking incredibly smug.
"You despicable girl, do you know what you are doing?" Doberman, who had a bad temper, roared immediately.
Capturing a Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral and an Admiral as prisoners, Luna was absolutely the first person, the first pirate, to do so in many years.
And this person was merely a girl under twenty years old. Shame! This was an absolute humiliation!
Doberman and the others were filled with sorrow and rage.
"Hmph, I just locked up a few Marine dogs, didn't I?"
Luna sneered with a look of disdain. She would absolutely not show the Marines any respect, not even a bit.

Chapter 134 Since you have become prisoners
"You..." Onigumo was the one who nearly roared this time, but their expressions quickly changed drastically because a massive ball of lightning had appeared in Luna's hand, looking incredibly violent and oppressive. They even suspected that if the lightning contained within struck them, it might kill them outright.
"Since you have become prisoners, you must act like prisoners. I provided you with treatment and food, which I think is quite generous. If you had fallen into the hands of the Four Emperors, you wouldn't receive such good treatment. Also, put away your Marines' stupid and dirty justice and dignity—they are useless here. All they will earn you is a beating."
Luna continued, speaking with a cold sneer.
"I suspect you didn't give us treatment and food for free, did you?" Aokiji murmured, intending to trick Luna into revealing her true purpose.
Even as a prisoner, Aokiji still possessed a mind capable of calm analysis.
"Smart. I only have one goal. Three days from now, your Marines will send people to redeem you. But given the Marines' nature, they will definitely start a war with us immediately after the exchange. My goal is to live-stream the event so that the entire sea knows that even with the six of you joining the fight, my Pink Hat Pirates can still easily defeat you Marines."
Luna spread her arms wide, speaking with a confident smile.
That's right, this was her goal. She wanted to defeat the Marines head-on with her strength. She wanted the entire sea to know how weak and powerless the Marines were in the face of the Pink Hat Pirates. Of course, she also had absolute confidence in her current Pirate Crew.
"Arrogant." The five Vice Admirals said simultaneously, their eyes filled with a rage that seemed ready to tear Luna apart.
They absolutely would not allow this pirate—who was ultimately just a little girl—to belittle and look down upon the Marines like this.
"Hey, hey, aren't you being too overconfident? I believe the Marines will send many powerful experts this time."
Aokiji also spoke now, wearing a displeased expression.
"Heh heh, you simply don't understand my Pink Hat Pirates. Furthermore, I hold an unbeatable card in my hand."
Luna maintained her confident expression, especially since she had just acquired that powerful and useful skill.
An unbeatable card? Aokiji and the others were immediately shocked internally, especially since Luna's expression remained consistently confident.
This instantly made them worried. Considering Luna's strength and abilities, and the combat power of every crew member of the Pink Hat Pirates, and still being unsure what forces the Marines would send, their anxiety grew.
"Hey, hey, you're still too confident. The Marines already know you are a Four Emperors-level powerhouse, so they will definitely dispatch Garp-san. Sengoku-san probably won't come; he needs to remain at Marineford since he is the Fleet Admiral. If Garp-san comes, then Borsalino will certainly come too. Borsalino's strength is not weak; he is also a Great Swordsman."
"Moreover, at least one other Admiral, or perhaps even two Admirals, will be sent. What kind of trump card do you have to face that?"
Aokiji immediately stated this, performing an analysis as if telling Luna that her trump card was useless because the Marines possessed absolute strength.
"Hmph! Stop using provocation." Luna sneered contemptuously. How could she not see that Aokiji was trying to provoke her?
Although she looked like nothing more than a seventeen-year-old beauty on the outside, having lived two lives, her intelligence surpassed that of ordinary people; both her thinking ability and cunning were top-notch.
"Uh..." Aokiji suddenly felt awkward. He hadn't expected Luna wouldn't be as easy to trick as she looked.
Even the five Vice Admirals beside him were disappointed. They had hoped Luna would reveal something herself.
"Hmph. However, regarding this trump card, I can tell you one thing."
Luna spoke with a look of absolute certainty.
But Luna's next sentence immediately drew the complete attention of the six Marines once again.
At the same time, they found it somewhat unbelievable that Luna would actually volunteer the information.
"Many people on the sea believe that the old era has ended and a new era is about to begin. But I want to say that this is completely wrong. The old era is not ending quickly; it will welcome a rebirth, with the new and the old appearing simultaneously."
Luna said this, and the meaning of her words was quite clear.
But this truly confused Aokiji and the other six men again.
However, Luna did not intend to continue speaking.
She returned to her room to cultivate, especially focusing on the newly acquired application methods for the Three Types of Haki.
But at this moment, on the other side—no, still in Water Seven.
Inside the factory, under the excited gaze of Shiro and the shocked gaze of Franky.
The Bei Group, having fully emerged from their cocoons, undergone a complete transformation, and been reborn, appeared completely before the two people.
That's right, the process here was finished, and the seven members of the Bei Group had completely transformed into Galatron Girls.
Luna was also very happy to receive this news, because the seven members of the Bei Group now possessed solid Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral peak combat power.
Even Carmen and the two others who were about to step into the Reserve Admiral realm would need to use all their strength just to defeat one of them.
They wore red windshield glasses in front of their eyes, connected to the Galactron helmets above. Some vital parts of their bodies were encased in Galactron armor, providing solid protection.
A Galactron tail shaft was connected to the back of their helmets.
