chapter-39

"By the way, you look tired too. Go grab something to eat," Jack suggested, pointing towards the kitchen.

"Well, I am quite hungry," the three sisters agreed as they rubbed their stomachs.

Jack watched as the Hancock sisters disappeared into the kitchen, then turned his attention to the two C-level Devil Fruits he was holding.

"Absorb!"

With Jack's strength, the two Devil Fruits quickly vanished into him.

Three days sped by in the blink of an eye.

Under a clear blue sky and with the sea stretching endlessly before him, Jack stood on the deck, enjoying the sea breeze and feeling nature's embrace.

Since absorbing the Devil Fruits, Jack's Marine Rokushiki had reached the Great Accomplishment stage, and his physical abilities had been further enhanced by his Samsara Power. He could feel that his strength was now several times greater than before.

At that moment, a white newspaper bird fluttered down, delivering a newspaper to Jack's hands.

"What's this about?" Jack wondered, flipping through the newspaper. His eyes widened when he saw the bold headline: "Marine Traitor Jack: 300 Million Bounty!"

"Who managed to break 300 million on their first bounty? And only a decade old? This is insane!" Jack murmured as he scrutinized the article.

Suddenly, he realized something, his eyes widening in shock. "Wait, that's me!" Jack exclaimed, frozen in disbelief. His own face was on the wanted poster, and his bounty was an astronomical 300 million.

"What's going on, Big Brother?" Hancock asked, noticing Jack's stunned expression.

"Big Brother, you're famous now!" Mengmei exclaimed after seeing the newspaper.

"Keep it down," Jack urged, quickly covering Hancock's mouth. He was caught off guard by how swiftly news of his bounty had spread. Now, with a 300 million bounty, he would attract attention wherever he went. Though he wasn't particularly worried, he knew it would bring more trouble in the future.
