"You're really something. How could you even say that?"
Peter was defeated by her wild imagination, but he didn't reject it outright. Instead, he tried once again to summon the dragon in his mind.
But just like the time in the bathroom, the dragon did not respond to his call at all.
Instead, the system unexpectedly appeared.
[Ding! Host's request received. Scanning in progress…]
[Scan complete. Gender: Female.]
"Hah, it actually worked! Try it with Robin too."
Peter grew excited. He hadn't expected the system to have such a function. He cursed inwardly: "Damn it! Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?!"
Moments later, another ding echoed in his mind.
[Ding! Scan complete. Gender: Female.]
"Two daughters together?! Could there be a greater blessing than this?!"
Peter hadn't expected such results and burst out laughing with joy.
"But I didn't think they'd both be girls. I thought it would be one girl and one boy."
It was just muttering to himself, but the system suddenly responded:
[Ding! To avoid the possibility of the host's sons overthrowing him, which would lead to the system disappearing with him… the system has set all offspring of the host's women to be female. If the host is dissatisfied, he may request adjustments at any time.]
"What the hell! Am I so weak that my own sons would overpower me? And why assume daughters wouldn't rebel against their father?"
[Ding! If the system says they won't, then they won't.]
"Damn you! That's gender discrimination! Do you want me to destroy you?!"
Then he grumbled: "And if they're all girls, won't that affect the family line?"
[It's just an excuse to deliver rewards. Don't worry too much, Host.]
Peter laughed: "Amazing. I love you more and more, my dear system."
In his heart, he gave the system a big thumbs-up.
Since the system had spoken, he no longer cared.
As for changing the children's gender, he tossed that thought aside.
Maybe in the future, when life got boring, or when he decided to leave this world, he might consider leaving behind a son.
But for now… "Let's shelve it."
He didn't tell Robin anything about the two children and hastily wrapped up the discussion:
"Anyway, that's how it is. Whether you can accept it or not, that's reality. Even powerful Saiyans could be annihilated easily before stronger enemies.
If you don't want you and your children to meet the same fate someday, then take your training seriously.
But don't worry too much… at least I'll be with you."
Since Peter told the girls about the history of the Saiyans, making them realize that far more dangerous enemies existed outside this world, they had all become much more diligent and enthusiastic about training.
Especially as they gradually mastered flying, scenes of them dueling in pairs often filled the sky.
Even Robin and Mikita—whose talents weren't naturally suited for battle—sought help from Hina and began training in the use of ki, from flying to firing energy blasts.
Each of them started strengthening themselves in their own way.
The heated atmosphere continued until the next island appeared on the horizon, calming things down.
"That's Jaya Island?! Pirates openly docking their ships at the harbor?"
Nami exclaimed in surprise, peering through her telescope at the pirate-flagged ships.
Hina, who had quit smoking and replaced it with lollipops, muttered:
"This is an area outside the control of the government, Navy, or local authorities.
Because of its special location, it's become a hub where pirates gather to resupply, sell loot, and indulge their desires."
Stussy snapped her compact mirror shut with a smile and said:
"That's right. I have quite a few businesses in Mock Town on Jaya Island. They bring me huge profits every year. If you want to go and have fun, I can cover the expenses."
In an instant, Nami and Carina darted in front of her, each grabbing one of her hands, their eyes sparkling with joy:
"From now on, you're our big sister, Stussy!"
Nojiko: (her expression twitched awkwardly)
Vivi was surprised: "Huh? Sister Stussy, how hasn't the government seized your businesses yet?"
Stussy smiled: "At least publicly, I have no ties to the government.
So even they can't just seize my assets."
Then she winked mischievously.
Vivi sighed awkwardly, pitying the government.
"After all their effort making her the 'Queen of the Underworld,' now she's turning against them.
Won't the Five Elders go mad?"
Stussy chuckled: "Maybe not mad, but at least irritated."
As they chatted, Peter approached, wrapping his big hand around Stussy's waist:
"Since you know the people here, that's perfect. Have your men try selling our ship. We'll be replacing it soon anyway."
Stussy replied: "That's doable, but where will we get the new ship?"
This time, Peter pointed upward—not toward space like before.
"The sky… there's a floating island with a magnificent ship capable of flying."
The girls raised their eyes, but those from East Blue looked doubtful.
"An island in the sky? How can it stay afloat?"
Peter flicked Nami's forehead lightly: "Come on. We already have aliens—what's so strange about a floating island?"
Nami thought for a moment, then nodded: "True…"
But she didn't let the forehead flick slide. She lunged at him, only for Peter to grab her by the tail and hoist her high.
As she angrily pounded his back with her small fists, Peter ignored her and gathered everyone on deck to assign tasks.
"Stussy, you'll handle coordination and selling the ship…"
Peter continued handing out assignments:
"Nojiko, Kaya, you'll handle purchasing supplies, with Vivi, Carina, Kalifa, and Alpha helping you.
Mikita, you're not going anywhere. And finally—Robin, Hina, Nami—you'll come with me to Sky Island."
As soon as he finished, cheers of excitement mixed with sighs of disappointment spread among the girls.
Mikita and Stussy didn't complain, but Nojiko, Kaya, and Carina had really hoped to see Sky Island. Still, they couldn't disobey Peter's orders. After all, they were the ship's cook and doctor.
No one else could handle buying food and medicine.
As for Carina, she and Nami were in charge of finances, so Peter chose to take Nami this time to keep things fair.
Thus, the responsibility of selling the Saiyan Ship fell to Carina.
By the time Peter finished assigning duties, the ship had already docked at the shore.
He gave his crew a quick word, then soared into the sky with Robin, Nami, and Hina.
Meanwhile, Stussy led the other girls onto land to begin their tasks.
With a gentle smile, she said:
"Remember, finish your jobs first before thinking about fun."
But before they could even begin, a challenger appeared.
"Hah? What a day! I've never seen so many beauties gathered in one place before!"
It was the pirate Bellamy, boasting a bounty of 55 million berries. He staggered forward arrogantly, tongue practically hanging out.
Fresh from the sea, he suddenly stumbled upon this group of stunning women.
Not missing his chance, he and his men approached, looking for "fun."
Stussy eyed the lowlife and his ragtag pirates and chuckled, covering her mouth:
"Ara… Seems some fools don't know who they're messing with. Well then, before we get to work, let's clean up the trash on this island."
Carina and the others looked disgusted and prepared for battle.
Bellamy laughed scornfully, turning to his men:
"Hahaha! Did you hear that? These beauties still don't know their place, and even have time to mock us!"
His crew burst out laughing. He turned back for a retort—only to see Stussy raise her finger at him.
"Dark Arrow."
In an instant, a beam of darkness shot from her fingertip, engulfing Bellamy's face. Shock filled him before his body collapsed to the ground, unmoving, a cloud of dust rising.
At the same time, the other girls raised their hands, aiming at his men, who hadn't even processed what was happening.
High above, Peter glanced back at Jaya Island and chuckled with Robin, Hina, and Nami:
"Looks like they've already started fighting. Funny how the pirates here don't even recognize my flag."
The girls laughed, and one of them teased:
"Peter, why don't you paint the flag on your face next time? That way they'll recognize you instantly."
Peter answered flatly, eyes on the distant white sky:
"Cut the jokes. Don't you feel your breathing getting heavier? We're only four or five thousand meters up. The White Sea is at seven thousand, and Sky Island sits at ten thousand meters. If you can't make it up, it'll be pretty embarrassing."
The three of them fell silent, their expressions growing serious.
As they climbed higher, Nami was the first to falter.
"Wait… wait! I can't keep up anymore…"
Robin and Hina were doing slightly better, but neither could ascend to ten thousand meters on their own.
Peter laughed mockingly:
"Nami, you still need more training. Your energy reserves are lower than Hina's, and your control is weaker than Robin's. You burn through energy too fast."
Nami shouted angrily:
"Quit lecturing and help me already!"
Peter stretched out his hand, sharing part of his energy with them. For him, it was only a small portion, but for them, it was an enormous boost, doubling their strength and speed.
Nami cheered, spinning through the air:
"Wow! This is incredible!"
Peter waited for her excitement to calm, then said seriously:
"That's enough. Gather close to me. I'll take you all up at once."
They drew near, and he enveloped them in a barrier of energy. Then his body erupted in violet flames as he shot upward, piercing through the White Sea and Upper White Sea until they reached the Island of God.
Inside the sky palace, Enel was sitting and eating an apple when he suddenly sensed four strong auras within his Mantra field.
He was so shocked that the apple slipped from his hand.
The surrounding concubines dropped to their knees, trembling, thinking they had angered their "god."
Enel truly was enraged. Since eating the Thunder Fruit, he had never lost his composure like this.
He roared furiously:
"Who are those four daring to fly in my kingdom?! I'll show them the price of disturbing God!"
In a fit of rage, he crushed the fallen apple under his foot and raised his hand high, summoning lightning:
"Divine Punishment!"
