Everyone sincerely wished Neptune well. It was indeed a joyful thing to see someone they knew getting married. Qin Luo even joked that others should find a partner as well.

Qin Luo was not joking. All the singles present were summoned by him. He could feel that these summoned people were real people, not cold data or empty puppets.

They have their own emotions and feelings, and if possible, Qin Luo hopes that they can find their true love in this pirate world. In Naruto, these people are all steel straight men until they die.

Oh, except Uncle Snake, he has himself enough.

In addition, Qin Luo is also looking forward to it. Neptune and Otohime are about to get married, and the future Sea Emperor "Shirahoshi" is also on the way.

Otohime, born with the "mind-reading" observation Haki, and Neptune, with royal merman blood, gave birth to the Sea Emperor Shirahoshi. Genetics is never a simple "1+1=2" problem.

Qin Luo really wanted to complain that Neptune's ability in accounting and having children was much higher than his fighting ability.

Dinner was almost ready, Qin Luo slapped his head, he almost forgot something.

"This is for you, Yiji. This is a meeting gift. I'll have to trouble you to take care of Neptune in the future." As he spoke, a jade box the size of a tinderbox floated up under Qin Luo's control and flew to Yiji's side.

"There's a pill in here. No matter how badly you're injured, as long as you're not dead and your head isn't cut off, taking this pill will heal you. Even if your limbs are broken, they'll grow back."

Qin Luo's introduction shocked everyone. No one suspected that Qin Luo was talking nonsense, but they were wondering where Qin Luo got this magical medicine that could bring the dead back to life.

With this medicine on her, Yiji undoubtedly has an extra life.

At first, Yiji didn't dare to accept such a valuable gift. It wasn't until everyone told her to accept it that she trembled and hid the jade box in her arms. Yiji had never thought she could actually feel the feeling of holding a life in her hands.

Yiji was even more in awe of the mysterious and powerful God of Flowing Clouds.

Of all the people at the table, only Orochimaru gave Qin Luo a strange look when he took out the jade box.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that there's something wrong with the medicine, but that this medicine was made by Orochimaru. Strictly speaking, it was the materials provided by Qin Luo and developed by Orochimaru.

Do you remember the red life orb that Qin Luo obtained by devouring the enemy? This thing is the true appearance of the jade box of Chinese medicine that Qin Luo gave to Yi Ji, pure and rich life energy.

Chapter 606: Roger's Child

On the day he came back, Qin Luo waited until his stomach calmed down before he went to find Orochimaru again.

After the initial curiosity and excitement of obtaining new experimental materials, the three Orochimaru regained their usual calmness and their attitude towards Qin Luo returned to its original respect.

The huge difference between Orochimaru's expression before and after caught Qin Luo off guard, but this was a good thing. Taking this opportunity, Qin Luo told Orochimaru his thoughts and requirements.

The Cement Demon is definitely not an experimental material for Orochimaru to play with. It is for him to improve his proficiency in human anatomy, and it would be best if he is not killed.

Qin Luo's goal is to achieve the cloning and manufacture of devil fruits through research on cement devils.

Artificial Devil Fruit, Qin Luo is finally going to take action on this thing. The speed of collecting Devil Fruits by himself is too slow. Now Qin Luo has plundered the Devil Fruits of more than half of the forces in the Grand Line, and even reserved their Devil Fruits for the next ten years.

Even so, it still couldn't satisfy Qin Luo's ever-increasing point system. But if you could make your own devil fruit, it would be different. You could plant a batch when you have nothing to do, and wait for the harvest when the time comes. Qin Luo didn't have any requirements for the power of the devil fruit, as long as it could be exchanged for points.

Qin Luo used to think that artificial devil fruits might not be recognized by the system, but the energy ball that broke out from the cement demon gave Qin Luo hope. Does this mean that as long as the energy ball separated by the cement demon is large enough, the system can extract a devil fruit.

The devil fruit ability that ran wild on the cement demon was undoubtedly very special, and this was the first time Qin Luo had seen it.

In the past, there were three conditions that restricted Qin Luo's idea of ​​creating an artificial devil fruit: a lack of sufficiently "gentlemanly" scientists, a lack of corresponding experimental materials, and a lack of research direction.

Before he knew it, Qin Luo had already gathered the first two conditions, and the experiment could proceed. Of course, it would be best if he could find Vegapunk, the earliest researcher of artificial devil fruits.

On the Mechanical Island, in the future kingdom of Balkimoa, Qin Luo put the plan of finding Vegapunk on the agenda.

In addition to this matter, Qin Luo also gave the life orb he recently obtained through the devouring ability to Orochimaru for research.

The rich breath of life from this thing can be felt from a long distance, and its effect on injuries is also very obvious.

Life energy is a precious thing. Haven’t you seen that the Five Elders have ruled the pirate world for hundreds of years with the help of the mutated Life Fruit and remain immortal?

But the thing in Qin Luo's hand also has some problems. One is that it can only be carried around through the devouring ability, and it will automatically disintegrate if it is a little far away.

Another problem is its low efficiency. You claim you're only using it to heal a wound, but the surging life force actually increases the activity of cells surrounding the wound. That's nothing.

As a result, every time I use the Life Orb, no matter how big the wound is, it will be much smaller.

Perhaps he had done some research on life force before. The first problem was easy to solve. As soon as Qin Luo finished speaking, Orochimaru said that he had a way to preserve life force. Even if the method in the One Piece world didn't work, it could be achieved using the technology in the Naruto world.

The solution is to wrap this life energy with some substance and make it into pills.

Dividing life energy into small portions in the form of pills is an effective way to solve the problem of low utilization efficiency. When life energy is insufficient, it will always be used to heal wounds first, so the problem Qin Luo encountered was only because he released too much life energy when saving people.

But the question is, how to separate such a large life orb? You can't just let him make a few more "small balls" as usual, right?

After Orochimaru failed to separate the Life Orb several times, the Life Orb's energy ran out. Without experimental materials, the experiment naturally ran into difficulties. Thus, the pill given to Otohime became the first one.

After the dinner, everyone's attention shifted back to Roger and Lu Jiu's unborn child.

Especially the ladies, they stopped reading books, ignored the wedding, and even threw sword practice and gambling aside, chattering endlessly with Lu Jiu.

"Roger, have you thought of a name for the baby?"

Qin Luo suddenly asked Roger. Because Roger was not dead, and his child was born early, it was still unclear whether this child would be Ace.

"Of course. Lu Jiu and I have discussed that if it's a boy, we'll name him Ace, and if it's a girl, we'll name her Ivy." Roger said with a look of longing, and on his face full of happiness, one could see him trembling slightly.

"Ace, Ivy? They're both good names."

Qin Luo was a little surprised. He had a hunch that Lu Jiu would give birth to a boy this time, and Ace would soon appear.

"Do you like boys more or girls more?"

Faced with Qin Luo's question, Roger chose the girl without hesitation. When asked why, Roger said he was worried that the boy would have the same personality as him and would not make him worry. In a sense, Roger's worry was very correct.

"How about we make a bet? We don't use our abilities to detect the baby in Lu Jiu's belly, but guess the baby's gender."

Because he was bored, Roger immediately agreed to Qin Luo's bet. Qin Luo chose a boy, and Roger guessed a girl. The bet was to grant the other party a small wish, but the beneficiary became their child. In other words, if Qin Luo guessed wrong, he would have to grant a small wish of Roger's child in the future. And vice versa.

But Qin Luo doesn't have any children yet.

The outcome of this bet came with the loud cry of a baby in Lu Jiu's room the next day. With Tsunade and some of the best midwives on Sky Island Ohara, the birth of the child went very smoothly.

Everyone congratulated Roger.

"Is it a boy or a girl?" Everyone was curious about this, but only Roger could ask.

"So handsome." Taotu, who received the news first, paused mysteriously.

Qin Luo's heart skipped a beat, and he felt something was wrong. Why did this sentence structure seem so familiar?

"Of course it's a girl. Roger, please pick a name for your daughter." Taotu announced the result, and at this time Tsunade came out with the cleaned child and handed it to Roger.

Qin Luo was surprised. His premonition was wrong. Considering that today was a festive day, Qin Luo's surprise flashed away and he celebrated with everyone that Roger had a daughter.

As for the bet, Qin Luo didn't care much. Even if he won, he would help Roger's child realize a small wish in the form of a gift.

Chapter 607 Wedding Preparations

Ivy, as Roger's daughter, is also the first child born among Qin Luo's group after they gathered together.

As the first child, both boys and girls are given preferential treatment.

Not to mention the birth gifts everyone prepared for Ivy, there were a lot of godmothers, godfathers and aunts. Because Taotu also recognized Ivy as her goddaughter, Qin Luo enjoyed the treatment of being a father.

With such a group of elders around, this little princess will probably be able to walk around Fishman Island with her own free will in the future.

"You seem to be worried about something. What's wrong?" Although Qin Luo's surprise was only fleeting, the women who knew him saw it.

"Is it because you lost the bet?" Tsunade interjected, showing empathy. She understood the pain of losing a bet very well.

"Go away, what are you thinking about? Why would I be sad about a bet?" Qin Luo felt a little amused. Tsunade's empathy made Qin Luo feel helpless. Did Tsunade think that everyone would lose every time they gambled like her?

"Then you don't dislike girls, do you? You froze when you heard that the newborn was a girl." Because there was no one around, 533 Peach Rabbit speculated unscrupulously, not worrying about being heard by others.

This was a life-threatening question. Qin Luo felt that if he didn't answer it well or had any hesitation, the place where they were talking would instantly become a domestic violence scene.

"Of course it's not because of girls. When have I ever favored boys over girls?" Qin Luo first removed himself from the hat of disrespecting women.

"I just had a strong premonition that it would be a boy. This premonition was always accurate in the past, but it failed this time, so I was a little distracted." Regardless of whether Taotu and the others believed it or not, Qin Luo believed it anyway.

Qin Luo couldn't say that I had read the comics before and Roger's child was a boy named Ace.

"Tsk." The three boos in unison said it all. The three women felt that Qin Luo was lying to them.

"I'm telling you, if I find out that you look down on Wei, I'll make you pay." After becoming her godmother, Taotu took great care of the newly born Ivy and did not hesitate to threaten Qin Luo with force.

The matter was not over until Qin Luo repeatedly assured him that he loved Ai Wei very much and would take extra care of her. Qin Luo also secretly warned himself to stay calm when encountering unexpected things in the future. The wheel of history had long been changed by the flapping of his butterfly wings.

The joy of Roger and Lu Jiu's child's birth ultimately belonged only to Qin Luo and his group. Roger's identity couldn't be revealed to the public, so Lu Jiu had to keep a low profile as well. The people of Fishman Island only vaguely knew that there was a little princess in the Dragon Palace, but they didn't know whose child it was.

Because Ryugugu kept a low profile, Ivy's birth didn't cause much of a stir. On Fishman Island, more people were busy preparing for the wedding of their King Neptune and Princess Otohime.

Amidst the busyness of life, the wedding day arrived.

Thanks to everyone's tireless efforts, the newly constructed megacity of Atlantis, encompassing Fishman Island, has begun to take shape. In particular, the roads along which the wedding carriages of the two main characters, King Neptune and Princess Otohime, will pass have been completely constructed.

Paved with a staggered pattern of marble and bluestone slabs, vibrant fountains and sculptures, and rows of magnificent shops, the redesigned Atlantis New City imbued the commercial streets with a new sense of order compared to the bustling yet chaotic Fishman Island of the past.

Besides sidewalks and roads, the number and size of waterways were no less than those of land roads. The entire city of Atlantis was crisscrossed with waterways, through which the sea flowed slowly.

Each waterway is at least five meters deep, deeper than a typical river. These waterways are used by merfolk and merpeople for swimming and boats for navigation. For each road, the ratio of waterways to landways is 1:2:1, meaning there's a waterway on each side of the land.

So in the new city of Atlantis, it was perfectly normal to see pedestrians, carriages, boats, and merfolk traveling along the same roads. Isn't this how a sea city open to the world should be?

All the shops are also divided into above-water and underwater parts. If a human dives into the waterway with diving equipment, he can see more different scenery.

On both sides of the street, massive circular stone pillars are placed every ten meters, right at the edge of the road. Decorated with coral, shells, pearls, and reliefs depicting various underwater stories, the pillars create the illusion of entering the city of Poseidon, the god of the sea.

As for why there is such a huge difference between Fishman Island before and after? It's simply because they have enough money.

Countless stones and various materials were brought to Fishman Island by the fleet. Finally, the fishmen no longer had to build houses by piling up rocks covered in coral reefs due to a shortage of stones.

Perhaps people outside Fishman Island would find it interesting and novel to have corals and aquatic plants on the houses, full of unique flavor, but this kind of beauty will only be preserved in the sea water.

Just like the Fishman Street back then, in order to facilitate the pirates' trading and supply on the island, all the seawater in that area was pumped out, exposing many houses that had been submerged in seawater all year round.

You know, the pirates of the old days had another nickname for Fishman Street: the "Salted Fish Market." After the seawater was drained, the lingering stench was likened to that of salted fish that had been dried for years, hence the nickname.

After completion, the new city of Atlantis will definitely be an important commercial hub connecting the first and second halves of the Grand Route, open to people of all races, so things like "Salted Fish Street" must never happen again.

Influenced by Qin Luo, in order to highlight the festive atmosphere of the wedding, many red and gold-rimmed ribbons were used to decorate the entire city. Even the parts far from the city center that had not been fully repaired were covered with red cloth.

From the wedding arrangements to the choice of ceremony, Qin Luo and the three girls, Taotu, participated in it very attentively, almost treating it as a rehearsal for their wedding.

According to custom, no one from other countries was invited to Neptune and Otohime's wedding, so Qin Luo and his group became the most special spectators.

And even if people from other countries came, it would be useless, as most of the wedding would be held in the sea. For humans, this is not a wedding, but a disguised way of saying that life is too long.

Chapter 608 Parade Ceremony

The ceremonial wedding carriage carrying King Neptune and Princess Otohime departed from Ryugu Castle, passed through the entire Fishman Island, and entered the ocean. This was when the actual parade began.

Neptune brought his princess Otohime to the front of the wedding parade. There would be two teams of merman soldiers carrying special tools in front to drive away schools of fish or other marine creatures, mainly to drive away the sea kings wandering nearby.

Sea kings are no pushovers, and they might attack a parade over food. So if you don't want your wedding to turn into a funeral, it's best to drive them away.

The prop used is made of some kind of conch. By blowing it in the sea water, the invisible sound waves will guide the surrounding fish and patrol teams to move forward together, just like a guarding team.

The divine right of kings is a well-worn trope, and the Murloc King is no exception. Whether Neptune becomes king or marries a princess, he needs the blessing of the sea god.

So Neptune and Otohime's carriage finally toured all the sea areas near Fish-Man Island that belonged to the territory of Fish-Man Island, surrounded by a group of sea creatures, until they came to an ancient altar to receive blessings from the sea.

The ancient altar is said to have been built by the ancestors of early fishmen and mermaids. At that time, there were no settlements like Fishman Island.

From leaving Fishman Island for the underwater pilgrimage to completing the blessing ceremony at the altar and returning to Fishman Island, this process will take up more than half of the entire wedding time.

So thank Qin Luo. At the bottom of the sea ten thousand meters deep, few people can withstand the water pressure alone, especially since there are people with devil fruit abilities and ordinary people without much strength in the viewing group.

Qin Luo clasped his hands together and stretched them out, creating a spherical area with a radius of six meters without any water. Qin Luo used repulsion to drag everyone to the center of the spherical area and followed closely behind Neptune's patrol team.

"It's so beautiful." Qin Luo and the others couldn't help but sigh when they saw the parade surrounded by various fish and marine life. The schools of fish and marine life gathered more and more, like a colorful torrent entwined with the wedding parade.

During the period, they also encountered several hungry sea kings who came to seek death. Without exception, they were controlled by Qin Luo and followed the patrol team, moving forward step by step.

For the merpeople and mermen, this wedding parade was a unique event. As the "king" of the sea creatures, the Sea Kings paid no heed to Neptune, the King of Fish-Man Island. The special items that could command the schools of fish only reduced the Sea Kings' hatred towards them, so they had to avoid them.

The fact that the Fishman King's wedding was attended and blessed by the Sea Kings can be traced back to hundreds of years ago when the Fishman Island still had a Sea King.

However, this history of several hundred years was too far away for the residents of the Fishman Island, so when it was happening, all the mermaids and mermen cried for joy, as if the blessing and glory of the sea god had descended upon his people, the fishmen and merpeople, again.

If Qin Luo knew what these fishmen and mermen were thinking, he would probably be quite helpless. This was clearly his achievement, so why would an outdated god come and take away his popularity?

The so-called ancient altar is nothing more than a dilapidated underwater temple. The top of the temple is no longer visible due to the passage of time. A few broken stone pillars covered with coral reefs and seaweed still remain on the altar's site. The altar is a raised platform in the center of the temple, exposed in the sea.

This temple, which had been undisturbed for a long time, with only fish as its companions, now welcomed a grand wedding procession. The last time such a scene occurred was when Neptune took over the throne of the merman king.
