Chương 125: Chapter 125: The Resurrection Finally Appeared!
"Why…why is this happening…"
Tashigi bent her legs and collapsed on the ground, one eye narrowed slightly in pain, her face filled with disbelief. She gripped the famous sword Shigure like a crutch, using it to support herself.
All around her were navy soldiers, their bodies emitting black smoke, and it was impossible to tell if they were dead or alive.
"Surrender, you have no hope!"
Nami twisted her slender waist as she strolled up to Tashigi. Seeing the young girl before her, who was about her own age, Nami decided not to be harsh and merely smiled at her.
"Revolutionary Army…"
Tashigi, paralyzed by the electric shock, looked up with difficulty. She didn't make excuses for her failure or plead for mercy. Instead, at this moment of helplessness, she seemed to regain her composure. She looked at Nami and asked,
"What is the Revolutionary Army fighting for?"
"Fighting for?" Nami replied, confused. She was about to step forward and snatch the famous sword from Tashigi, but then she stopped. Looking into the girl's sincere eyes, Nami realized that…
…this girl's eyes were somewhat similar to her own.
"I don't know why…" Nami slowly put away her smile and answered Tashigi's question. "But…"
"When I see people being shackled and sold like commodities… When I find out that some are treated like trash and abandoned just because of their background…"
"When I see villagers being ruled by evil pirates and no one responding to their cries for help…"
"I know that I can't just sit and wait for some false justice to come."
"…"
After hearing Nami's answer, Tashigi fell silent. After a while, she slowly placed the famous sword horizontally in her hands and pushed it towards Nami.
Suddenly, she smiled and said, "Thank you, I got the answer I was looking for."
Having been raised with the navy's idea of [justice] since she was young, Tashigi finally gave up her resistance to the Revolutionary Army. Or, perhaps…
…she had already given up the moment she saw Akainu burn civilians for the sake of the World Government's mission. Now, she just followed through with her decision.
Picking up the famous sword Shigure from the ground, Nami glanced silently at Tashigi before smiling suddenly.
This young lady is a kindred spirit.

With Nami's quick actions and the signal jamming device placed by Carina, they successfully completed the mission assigned by Sabo without exposing the Revolutionary Army's operations. All the sailors on the naval battleship, including Smoker and Tashigi, were imprisoned in the Kingdom of Goa's jail.
Though they knew this solution was temporary, it was enough to last until the end of their transaction.
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.
For many people in the Kingdom of Goa, these five days were the most unforgettable time of their lives.
Five days ago, they heard gunfire in the palace.
Two days ago, they witnessed their king being dragged to the execution platform, sobbing and wailing.
One day ago, they saw many of the once-arrogant nobles being executed in the streets.
But today, all the lower-class citizens who had been exiled to the garbage dump were welcomed back to the inner city by the Revolutionary Army and began to register as citizens one by one.
From that moment on, everyone in the country knew that the sky over the Kingdom of Goa was changing.
At this moment, Sabo, Koala, who had led the revolution, and Nami, who had joined midway, all gathered in the palace's largest living room.
"Luffy, I didn't expect you to be a trainer!"
Seeing Luffy hugging a dirty Froakie, Sabo looked at him with a perplexed expression. Who would have thought that in an era where everyone is pursuing Pokémon, someone would lose their own Pokémon! What's even more incredible is that…
…neither the trainer nor the Pokémon thought to look for each other right away.
Instead, one stayed in the palace, feasting for days, while the other sneaked into the storage room amidst the chaos, stealing energy cubes belonging to Kuro and Nami.
If it hadn't been for the observant Carina noticing something amiss and catching Froakie, the two might have been separated for good!
Like fate, in the end, the frog and Luffy magically reunited.
Luffy scratched the back of his head apologetically and laughed awkwardly, "Ahaha…haha…"
"No, I'm just thrilled to see you alive and well!"
"You rascal, don't try to shift the blame to me!"
Sabo smiled and rolled his eyes at him.
"Gua~"
Froakie also showed an apologetic expression, seemingly sorry for its stealing behavior.
Seeing the duo who looked like living treasures, everyone present couldn't help but smile at each other.
Just as Sabo was about to say something to tease his carefree brother, a door of light as tall as a person suddenly appeared before everyone.
"What is this!?"
Seeing the sudden light, Luffy exclaimed in amazement.
And from the light, a voice familiar to Nami and the others rang out:
"I heard someone asking, 'What is this!?'"
"Since you asked the question sincerely…"
"Then I will show mercy and tell you…"
As the familiar opening words echoed, two human figures, a cat. The three figures slowly walked out of the light door.
It was Team Rocket's trio, who had teleported here using superpowers!
"…"
"…"
"That's right, meow!"
With a set of dazzling moves, Team Rocket completed their entrance. Although the strange sense of déjà vu made Nami and the others feel slightly embarrassed, since the other party was a dimensional merchant, no one dared to say anything.
Meanwhile, Luffy and Froakie on his shoulder clapped enthusiastically after enjoying Team Rocket's performance.
"Wow! That was amazing!"
Luffy asked with shining eyes, "Can you do it again!?"
"…"
The room fell into silence.
James, who had been striking a pose, immediately dropped his stance and put on a serious expression. Ignoring the situation, he looked at Nami and cleared his throat:
"Good morning, Miss Nami. I didn't expect to meet again so soon!"
"Good morning, Sir James, Miss Jessie, and Sir James."
Nami responded with great respect. As she spoke, she slowly stretched out her hand, directing the trio's attention to the town scene outside the window, and asked:
"We have attacked the Kingdom of Goa and are gradually guiding the kingdom's policies to readmit the people who were expelled to the garbage dump. May I ask, Sir James, have we completed our mission in this way?"
"Of course!"
A satisfied expression appeared on James' face, as if everything was under his control.
Snap!
Following his leader's example, James suddenly snapped his fingers.
In an instant, the Rotom phone of Nami, Kuro, and Carina suddenly flew out.
At the top of the screen, a message appeared: "Mission Completed."
Immediately following this, the personal information of three people appeared on the screen. What stood out from before was a new status bar below their information:
[Faction: Revolutionary Army]
"What is this?" Nami asked, looking up with a puzzled expression.
James smiled slightly and explained to everyone, "This is a faction system that becomes available only after completing a team mission. Once faction members who have activated the system become traders, the Transdimensional Chamber of Commerce will automatically recognize their faction affiliation, allowing them to enjoy all the benefits associated with it."
"I see," Nami said, nodding. Having never played an online game before, she found this setup quite intriguing. She clicked on the word [Revolutionary Army] on the screen, and a square window popped up immediately.
[Current Faction Buff: 50% (To purchase goods in the mall, only half the points of the item's worth is needed)]
[Duration: 90 days]
Seeing the tangible system prompt before her, Nami's excitement was indescribable. Suddenly, her eyes locked onto the screen as she clicked on the mall information interface in the Rotom phone and started searching.
[Feather of the Phoenix King]
[Effect: A magical item with the power of resurrection, capable of restoring the body of a deceased soul]
[Price: 5,000 points (struck through) - 2,500 points]
"2,500 points!?" Seeing the halved price, Nami clutched Rotom's phone tightly, tears welling up in her eyes from excitement. She quickly looked up.
At this moment, Nami didn't pay attention to Sabo, who was waiting to negotiate on behalf of the Revolutionary Army. She said in a choked voice, "I-I want to exchange my points!"
"No problem!" Meowth, having heard this, smiled happily and stepped forward. Mimicking a gesture, Meowth snapped his fingers.
In Nami's mind, the familiar exchange interface appeared instantly. Without hesitation, she checked all the supplies that could be redeemed and chose to exchange them for points.
The naval warship docked at the shore vanished into thin air, along with dozens of new cannons and a large amount of ammunition on board. Nami's points quickly increased by 1,200, reaching a total of 2,000 when combined with her remaining 800 points.
"Just 500 more points… 500 more points…"
"As long as I can earn another 250 million beli…"
Nami was trembling with excitement. What had once seemed impossible to her was now within reach. As long as…
"Nami!"
At that moment, Sabo, who had been standing behind her, took a step forward and smiled softly at her. "Dragon-san reached out to me earlier and asked specifically about your situation. When he learned of your dream to resurrect your mother…" Sabo paused slightly and continued calmly, "Nami is the spokesperson between the Revolutionary Army and the dimensional merchants and is a key figure the Revolutionary Army supports. If she has any needs, fulfil them as much as possible."
"On the path of revolution, we need more allies."
"So, Nami…" Sabo turned to her and whispered gently, "You can use the wealth and goods we collected from the nobles."
"I…" Nami extended her hand but then slowly lowered it. At that moment, she didn't need to say anything. She was so happy that she wiped the tears from her face and immediately turned to Meowth.
"Sir Meowth, may I use the palace's assets now?"
"Of course!" Meowth smiled brightly, sensing the aura of wealth surrounding Nami.
After a short while, Nami's account had gained another 1,000 points. She calmed herself and slowly said, "Dear Dimensional Merchants, I want to exchange for the Feather of the Phoenix King and bring my mother, Bell-mère, back to life!"
At this moment, Nami's voice was the most resolute it had ever been.
"As you wish!" James responded warmly, waving his hand.
Meanwhile, Leo, who was searching for traces of the Sky Island on the Grand Line, received James's request. He gently stroked Eevee's fur, a mysterious smile crossing his face.
"Finally, someone can afford the resurrection!" he mused, and then he communicated with the system.
Given that Bell-mère's death was relatively recent and her soul was not particularly strong, the points needed to extradite her soul were minimal. In an instant, the initial 200-point cost transformed into a majestic chain that pierced the void.
Within seconds, a flame-like object with a cold aura appeared in Leo's palm. These were the souls of those who had perished in the pirate world! Under the natural laws of this world, unless blocked by an external force like the power of the underworld fruit, all departed souls enter the underworld and slowly dissipate. However, now, influenced by the power of the source, Bell-mère's soul had returned to the material world.
"Go on, don't keep your child waiting," Leo gently urged, using another 20 points.
Bell-mère's soul swiftly traversed thousands of kilometers and suddenly appeared before Nami. At this moment, Meowth took advantage of the situation and exchanged for the Feather of the Phoenix King through the system.
Sensing the presence of the soul, the Phoenix King's Feather immediately ignited into a brilliant white flame, burning spontaneously.
Suddenly, a great breath of life emanated from the burning Feather, branching out and intertwining in the air.
Moments later, this force formed a radiant human figure in the sky. First came the body, then the limbs, and finally the head. Under the protection of the holy light, the shapely figure of a mature woman appeared before everyone in an instant.
Koala, standing nearby, suddenly realized something and quickly pulled Sabo and Kuro. She dragged them away, who were both intently watching the resurrection.
"Turn around, and no one is allowed to look until I give the okay!"
After saying this, Koala immediately turned to Nami and shouted, "Nami! Get some clothes on her!!!"
