One Piece: Who still has dreams?

Paramecia type, Gum-Gum Fruit. After eating it, the user's body will become like rubber, able to stretch and contract freely. Other than that, it has no other use.

Paramecia-type Devil Fruit, Love-Love Fruit, which petrifies other people and even objects. However, it is said that only users with exceptional charm can unleash its effects. Friends who are not confident in their looks, please think carefully...

"Oh?"

Reddio was a little surprised.

I thought the Empress gained that exaggerated charm aura after eating the Sweet-Sweet Fruit, but it turns out it's the other way around. It's because she has invincible charm that she brings out the Sweet-Sweet Fruit's unbeatable effect.

It seems there's a 90% chance, if not 100%, that the Empress is Rayleigh's daughter with the Supreme Succubus Shakky. She was born and left to fend for herself; what a terrible father and mother!

"Hey,"

Seeing him engrossed in reading, Nami waved her hand and whispered, turning to the page on the Paramecia type in the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia, "The ability Bonney had before that allowed her to transform into something resembling Kureha... was it this?"

Paramecia type, the Age-Age Fruit, which allows the user to freely control the age of themselves and other people and things, but it is said that its true uses are actually more than that.

"I think so," Redio nodded.

“And what about you?” Nami pressed the encyclopedia, blinking her big eyes as she stared at Redio. “In this whole book, there are many Devil Fruit abilities that can match yours: the Teleport Fruit, the Strength Fruit, the Op-Op Fruit… but no single Devil Fruit can encompass all of your ‘magic’.”

Redio pulled the thick book from under her hands and smiled slightly: "Is it okay for you to just randomly flip through other people's books like that? It's not good."

Nami retorted, "So what are you doing right now?"

The Devil Fruit Encyclopedia that Redio took vanished into thin air, only to reappear a moment later, now as two identical volumes.

"Ding ding ding, ding ding ding..."

Just then, Bonnie's pocket watch around her neck started counting down, and she rolled over and continued to snore. The two muscular fishermen and Queen Connie, who were taking their afternoon nap in the dimly lit church, gradually awoke.

Redio casually tossed the copied encyclopedia into his system inventory and also moved 9 essences into slot 1 of the three-in-one system.

Sniff, sniff...

Bonnie was sleeping when she smelled an indescribable aroma, and her mouth watered uncontrollably. She sat up abruptly and exclaimed in surprise, "Pizza?!"

Everywhere she looked, there were pizzas of all shapes and sizes, some topped with tomatoes and diced meat, drizzled with rich cheese—a classic treat; others served with pan-fried bacon, onion rings, and mushroom slices; still others were covered with a generous layer of shrimp and crab meat, wrapped in creamy cheese…

The dimly lit church was filled with complex and delicious aromas, which seemed to brighten the room a little.

"That's awesome!!!"

Bonnie's eyes lit up. She picked up a pizza bigger than herself and started eating. As she ate, tears of happiness streamed down her face. She mumbled, "Redio... thank you... sob sob... so delicious..."

The two fishermen sighed, "Her mother, Ginny, was also a big eater back then. She would feel happy whenever she ate something delicious."

"Here you go." Kureha cut two slices of pizza for the two ignorant fools.

The two muscular fishermen took their first bite and were so overwhelmed by the incredible deliciousness that they fainted from happiness and fell asleep immediately.

"...can also create food out of thin air."

Nami sat not far away watching Bonney burrow into a pile of pizzas, crying as she frantically ate. She whispered to Redio beside her, "Such a strange ability, you'd never find it in the encyclopedia."

Redio smiled, but he was thinking about something else.

The tools of the heavens and the tyrant... what if Bonnie used them? Could a super-enhanced body eradicate disease?

Among the examples of tyrants like Zenin Jinji and Maki, were there any characters who never got sick? I don't recall.

However, Bonney's illness is inherited from her mother Ginny, and Ginny's Jade Scales were created by Saturn, one of the Five Elders, during a drug experiment... This disease probably extends to the DNA, which is the level of "bloodline factors" in the One Piece worldview.

It's unlikely that relying on super-strengthening of the body will eradicate this stubborn disease.

Redio dismissed the idea.

At least for now, even if Kureha runs out of options, there's a backup plan—go find Vegapunke. Isn't old Vegapunke short of money? Coincidentally, money is the last thing I'm short of. How much treatment fee do I need? Just fill in the blanks!

If Bonney becomes the Tyrant of the Sky but fails to cure the Jadescale disease and her constitution is completely altered, then with an incredible body harboring an incredible terminal illness, can Vegapunk still cure her?

"Radio".

Kureha then walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Take me back."

“Okay.” Redio stood up.

Nami noticed that Redio took out another 100-Berry coin and tossed it to Kureha. They then went to the church living area, and not long after, Redio returned alone.

snowflake?

Nami keenly noticed that there were a few white snowflakes on Redio's hair, shoulders, and clothes when he returned in the blink of an eye. He seemed to be wrapped in a gust of cold wind, which quickly dissipated as he walked over.

Does Dr. Kureha live in a cold region?

That can't be right, she's dressed like that, showing her belly button...

Redio returned to the pizza party, laughing and competing with Bonnie. The short, elderly Connie ate a couple of bites and then watched everything calmly and gently.

After a while, while Bonnie was resting by licking her fingers, the Queen Mother came over and said slowly, "Redio, I have something I want to tell you."

……

"what's up?"

Redio followed Connie to the corner of the church. The old lady was too short, so he found a stone stool, sat down casually, and said, "Is the church's food and water supplies insufficient? How much is left? I'll replenish it."

"..."

Connie looked him straight in the eye, gently patted the back of his hand, and sighed softly, "You're a good kid... but tell me the truth, whether it's a Devil Fruit or some other ability, is the price you pay for producing all sorts of food out of thin air like this?"

Redio laughed: "Grandma, you've praised the wrong person. For me, I can easily produce a hundred tons or a thousand tons of food and drink. If I weren't worried about it spoiling, I could cover your whole island with grain right now."

"As for the cost, it's not negligible, but for me, it's insignificant!"

Connie nodded repeatedly: "That's good, that's good."

Redio said, "So, you don't need to thank me."

The Queen Mother smiled bitterly, "There are many other countries in the world that can easily produce so much grain, and you're not the only one. But they won't take the poor and elderly in our poor countries seriously. Even if they bring grain ships to this island and see the starving elderly in this country, they won't give away a single grain of rice. Instead, they'll demand payment from the heavens..."

She realized she had said something inappropriate and shut her mouth in a sullen voice.

Redio then turned around to look.

Nami came out from around the corner, raised her hand and said, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I just happened to be passing by."

Connie said softly, "If Big Bear, Ginny, and their big-headed friend were still here, they would love to welcome you, Reddio."

"Big head?"

"Was it Ivankov or Ivakov?" Redio asked.

Connie sighed, "You know him? What a pity, we've completely lost contact with that kid lately. I hope nothing's happened to him..."

He's continuing to be the Queen of the Transgender in Impel Down.

The streamer didn't quit the internet; the streamer was caught.

Redio, recalling a classic scene, said to Connie, "It'll be alright, leave it to fate."

Nami was suspicious; why did this guy's tone sound strange?

-----------------

Bonnie, see you next time.

Behind the church doors, Redio bids farewell to Bonnie.

Bonnie, though a little disappointed, obediently nodded upon hearing this.

Reddio ruffled her hair, pushed open the door a crack, pulled Nami along, and after the Queen Mother had also left, quickly left and closed the door.

Bonnie leaned against the shadows of the wall by the door, pouting and looking sullen. She longed to see Redio again, but didn't have the courage to ask him when the next time would be. She was used to being a sick child, so she never dared to trouble others.

"I'll definitely come back!" Bonnie took a deep breath and continued to rave about the pizza.

Chapter 18 The Inherently Evil Hypnotic Technique!

[East China Sea, new pink ship, wheelhouse]

One second it was afternoon, the next it was pitch black night.

Nami gazed at the black sea outside, feeling the salty, cold wind blowing. For a moment, she felt as if she had been transported to another world. She murmured to herself, "Everything just now felt like a dream..."

Redio stretched and glanced at the system.

[Name: Redio]

Overall Strength: ★★

[Mastered: Running (Proficient), Swimming (Skilled), Basic Physical Skills (Beginner), Frost Moon Sword Technique (Shallow Understanding), Basic Staff Techniques (Shallow Understanding)]

[Nami has been hired (approximately 29 days remaining)]

【系统背包（3/3）：海楼石x131000；武器x2；《恶魔果实图鉴》x1】

The Heavenly Curse and Binding Items are still in that quest log; the devil's temptation keeps me from making any rash moves.

Redio took the copied "Devil Fruit Encyclopedia" out of his backpack and casually tossed it onto the table beside him. Just as he was about to find a place to rest, a shrill scream suddenly rang out from the side:

"My gold!!!"

Nami abruptly pushed open the window of the wheelhouse. On the deck outside, in the pale moonlight, figures moved about, and two of them were carrying bags that reflected a golden light.
