ALL NOVEL Chapter 154: 154 John Treasure, Big Harvest
Lynch and Kaido flew out with their abilities, and the next moment the cave collapsed, burying everything inside.
"Well, well, Napoleon!"
Big Mom and Whitebeard, who came out first, did not leave, but were waiting in mid-air, planning to intercept Lynch who was behind them.
"Wait!" Lynch stopped the Big Mom who was about to take action.
"The thing is not in my hand. It sank into the cave. Kaido saw it with his own eyes."
After hearing what Lynch said, Big Mom stopped and looked at Kaido. f the pendant wasn't in Lynch hand, there was no point in fighting him.
"snort."
Kaido snorted and turned into a blue dragon and flew away. I have to go back and call someone to rescue Jack.
"Good son-in-law, remember to come to Cake Island as a guest when you have time." The Big Mom's eyes flickered and she left riding the Thunder clouds, Zeus.
Whitebeard nodded to Lynch and left with Marco.
Seawater flooded over the island, and within two minutes, it had completely sunk beneath the waves.
Lynch watched as it disappeared into the sea, then turned and left.
Two hours later, Lynch used a transfer scroll, reappearing in the ruins of the collapsed cave deep underwater.
He surrounded himself with an aura-based film to keep the seawater out.
As he reached the seafloor, Lynch felt the pressure weigh on him, realizing he was now at a depth close to 10,000 meters.
Any ordinary creature here would be crushed instantly by the pressure.
"How many explosives did that guy John plant? How did it collapse this much?"
Lynch muttered, grabbing the scroll he'd tossed when he left the cave.
He had less than two meters of space to move, surrounded by rubble and scattered gold coins.
The island had completely collapsed, its unique structure destroyed. Even with a full moon, it wouldn't be able to shine in this depths of the sea.
Captain John intended to make this place his tomb, guarding these treasures even after death.
With current pirate technology, it's unlikely they could recover anything from such depths.
"Luckily, I saved some things—now it's all mine!" Lynch grinned.
He transformed into his nearly 100-meter-tall Sun Candle form, tearing through the cave, smashing rocks, and occasionally spewing icicles to secure them in place.
After a night of hard work, he finally cleared the cave.
His large size had given him an advantage—no one else could have done it, no matter how hard they tried.
Gold coins came into view, and with a sweep of his hand, Lynch loaded a mountain of gold into his system space.
After storing just one and a half gold mountains, the space was already full.
And there were more than twenty caves full of gold like this one!
"System, expand the system space for me."
[Ding! 100,000 points deducted. Space expansion in progress...]
[Ding! Expansion successful! ]
A white light flashed as the system space expanded, reaching 200 meters in length, width, and height.
Lynch filled the newly expanded space with all the gold, then used the teleportation scroll to return to his kingdom in the West Blue.
Fortunately, Lynch had built many large granaries in the kingdom to store grain. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known where to put all the treasures and gold coins.
The treasure trove in the kingdom wouldn't have been able to hold it all.
Standing in the granary, Lynch waved his hand again, instantly filling the empty space with gold.
Hina and Robin were amazed; they had never seen so much money before.
With wide eyes, Hina exclaimed, "Wow, that's a lot of gold!"
Lynch kept using the scroll to travel between the deep-sea cave and the kingdom, collecting Captain John's treasure.
After a day and night of hard work, he filled all fifty granaries!
Who would have thought that what was meant for grain storage was now filled with gold coins?
After checking the cave twice more to ensure nothing was left behind, Lynch returned to the kingdom.
Before he left, he made sure to destroy the island to erase any evidence.
Lynch is now estimated to be the third richest person, right after the World Government and the Golden Emperor.
Even if the Marines and the Revolutionaries combined their wealth, they wouldn't come close to his riches.
Without the backing of the Golden Emperor, this fortune would allow him to live extravagantly for over ten years.
Most importantly, the treasure includes not just money but also Devil Fruits and other valuable items.
If Nami were here, she would likely think she was in heaven!
"Husband, are you robbing the World Government?" Robin's beautiful eyes stared blankly at Lynch.
Ino and Shikamaru were also speechless for a long time.
This, this, this...this is too much money!
"Hahaha, it's just Captain John's treasure," Lynch replied.
Since everyone present was trustworthy, he reminded them to keep this treasure a secret.
"Captain John? Is it really him?" Robin asked, impressed.
"My husband is so powerful; he actually found Captain John's treasure!"
Who doesn't know about Captain John's treasure at sea? Robin had grown up hearing legends about it.
For decades, no one could find John's treasure, but now her husband had succeeded.
What does this mean? It shows that he is destined for greatness!
He's meant to challenge the World Government and become the new ruler of the world.
"Smart," Lynch said, playfully scratching Robin's nose.
"Make sure to arrange people as soon as possible and count up the things in all these granaries. It's fine to take your time, but we need to keep this a secret."
There were so many treasures left behind by Captain John that even with Robin and Shikamaru organizing their team and working day and night, it took a full month to sort through everything.
As for the gold, there were fifty warehouses full of it.
Lynch glanced at the special items listed in the inventory.
[Devil Fruit: 137 total.This includes 45 Paramecia, 81 Zoan, 7 ancient species, 3 special Paramecia, and 1 Logia].
Having 137 Devil Fruits is incredible! With these, Lynch can quickly strengthen his kingdom and compete with the World Government.
Each Devil Fruit can produce an elite warrior.
Once these fruits are digested, the kingdom will not only gain top-tier combat power but also mid-level strength comparable to other top forces.
Originally, West Blue had a weak foundation and lacked many Devil Fruits. However, with Captain John's treasure, those shortcomings can be solved.
The rumors about rebuilding the Rocks Pirates with this treasure are true!
Among the treasures are seven ancient species of Devil Fruit:
Zoan • Ancient Species • Dragon Fruit • Ankylosaurus Form
Zoan • Ancient Species • Dragon Fruit • Velociraptor Form
Zoan • Ancient Species • Dragon Fruit • Komodo Form
Zoan • Ancient Species • Dragon Fruit • Drake Form
Zoan • Ancient Species • Pig Fruit • Tusk Mountain Pig Form
Zoan • Ancient Species • Frog Frog Fruit • Devil Frog
Zoan • Ancient Species • Rattus Fruit • Eurasian Rugosaurus Form
With fourteen ancient species and 81 regular Zoans, Lynch has enough to form a powerful army!
That's far more than the number Kaido has.
