At the center of the Sky Island Birka.
At the top of the towering white palace, Ross's figure stepped up from the revolving corridor to the highest point, overlooking the entire Sky island and the clouds.
Reiju's figure followed Ross and slowly climbed to the top of the palace.
"So, Sanji is still alive …"
Hearing the little information that Ross revealed to her, there was a flash of tenderness in her eyes.
Although she couldn't find any news about Sanji for a long time, she always had a hunch that Sanji might still be alive, and now it has been verified.
As for whether Ross was lying to her, she didn't think about it at all. First, Ross's identity was there, and second, Ross knew the name 'Sanji', which shows that Ross does know a lot of things.
Although she didn't know how Ross knew about this.
"Well, he's still alive. If nothing happens, you can meet again in the future."
Ross stood with his hands on his back, looking at the scenery in the clouds from afar.
If nothing happens, Sanji will join the Straw Hat Pirates, and then the Straw Hat Pirates will travel the Grand Line, participate in the War of the Best, and reach New World.
But it's a pity.
Luffy's dream can't be realized because Ross will not allow a 'Pirate King' to appear in this world.
He is a Yonkō (Four Emperors), and to become a Pirate King, he would have to surpass him, which is obviously impossible, and after he overthrows the World Government and pacifies the world, he will not allow a Pirate King to appear.
Unless.
Luffy was able to run to Raftel and find the so-called ONEPIECE before he overthrew the World Government and took advantage of the time when he didn't care.
"Can we meet again?"
Reiju's eyes twinkled and she murmured. Ross's words had given her enough reverie.
Ross looked at the clouds in the distance, at the golden light of the sun, across the edge of the white clouds, and then retracted his gaze and looked at Reiju.
He looked at Reiju and thought a little. Suddenly, he felt a little curious about Reiju's body and released his Observation Haki to perceive it carefully.
Lineage factor …
This is another scientific product like black technology.
Reiju noticed Ross's gaze and Ross's perception. She turned her head to look at Ross, but instead of avoiding him, she tilted her head and smiled, saying:
"What is Lord Ross looking for?"
"I'm a little curious about what the so-called Lineage factor is."
Ross didn't hide it and said with one hand on his chin.
Reiju shook her head and said, "I don't know much about this. Father has never told us in detail."
For the core technology of Bloodline Factor, Judge naturally has it firmly in his own hands. Even Reiju and others did not disclose it in detail, or it would be meaningless to disclose it.
He did not need to train Reiju and the others into scientists. They only needed to obey orders and become powerful warriors.
"Really?"
Ross touched his chin and did not doubt Reiju's words.
After staring at Reiju for a while, he waved at Reiju, signaling her to come over.
Reiju did not resist and came over with a gentle smile on her face, letting Ross look at her.
Ross pressed his hand on Reiju's shoulder and his fingers touched her skin. With a little force, he could feel the hardness of her bones, which was completely different from that of ordinary people.
Bloodline transformation.
This was not the so-called mechanical modification, but something similar to genetic modification. It was a strengthening from the root.
Oh …
Reiju frowned slightly and felt a little pain, but she did not avoid it.
Ross didn't exert any more force. He let go of his hand thoughtfully, his fingers crossed Reiju's skin again, and finally put them in front of his eyes for careful observation.
There was a little mucus on his fingers.
"Poison?"
Ross raised his eyebrows slightly and asked Reiju.
Reiju's ability is poison, which he is still very clear about.
Reiju shrugged and said innocently, "Instinctive reaction, accidentally … Do you need me to detoxify you?"
"No need."
Ross shook his head and a wisp of power of distortion was stimulated, emptying the mucus on his fingers in an instant.
Reiju's poison really doesn't have any effect on his current physique, it can't even numb his fingers for a while.
His current physique is not much worse than Hundred Beast Kaido. Even Magellan's poison can only numb him for a while.
"I should say … Is he really a Yonkō (Four Emperors)?"
Reiju looked at Ross's fingers and her eyes flickered slightly. She could naturally see that her poison had no effect on Ross at all.
Although the poison was not stimulated by her full strength, it was just an instinctive reaction, but Ross can ignore the toxin, so even if she stimulates her ability with all her strength, she may not be able to affect Ross.
"Your physique is very interesting."
Ross smiled faintly at Reiju.
He has a general understanding of Reiju's physique, but more details can't be known by this external method and he has to study it in depth.
"Yours too."
Reiju smiled.
Ross touched his chin and thought a little and said, "Although the bloodline factor can give you extraordinary power from birth, it also curbs your potential. It's a pity."
"Huh?"
Reiju looked at Ross in confusion.
Ross calmly explained: "Everyone's potential can be said to be the same. Those who are born with a strong physique are just born with a large part of their potential."
"Marine's Garp and Pirate's Whitebeard are the real strong people who have developed their potential almost to the limit."
"And the way you use the bloodline factor, although you are born with power, the potential belonging to 'human' has also been curbed, and it will become more difficult to develop it. It is even impossible to reach the limit of human beings like Garp and Whitebeard."
Reiju said thoughtfully: "So that's how it is."
This kind of bloodline factor is to sacrifice the future to shape the present.
Although it is almost impossible for ordinary people to fully develop the body's potential, it is even more difficult for them to be transformed by the bloodline factor!
The path forward has been fixed, and the limit of strength has been fixed. She can feel that since she was sixteen years old, she has not improved her strength for a long time.
"Don't you feel discouraged?"
Ross looked at Reiju and asked with a smile.
Reiju smiled and said, "There are only a few people like Garp and Whitebeard in the world. If I hadn't been transformed by the bloodline factor, maybe I would be a little stronger than ordinary people now."
Not everyone has the idea of being the strongest in the world.
Many people have never had this idea, and it is even more impossible to become the strongest. After all, even they have denied themselves.
"It's hard to say."
Ross shook his head.
If Reiju hadn't been transformed by the bloodline factor, maybe her strength would be similar to Sanji's current strength. Sanji is still working as a chef in the sea restaurant.
But this is also an uncertain thing. Maybe she can continue to break the limits of her body and advance by leaps and bounds, possessing stronger strength than she is now.
