Sailing: Infinitely strengthen and build the strongest four emperors

Di Xiu accidentally traveled to the world of pirates, and activated the god-level creation system at the beginning, gaining god-level enhanced abilities.

Able to infinitely strengthen anything, including Devil Fruits.

From then on, a terrifying group of four emperors appeared.

In this ocean, strength is everything!

Let this sea experience the true Four Emperors!

Celestial Dragons? World Government? Navy? The other Four Emperors?

Di Xiu declared domineeringly, anyone who stands in my way will die!

Garp: My iron fist can’t break his defense?

Blackbeard: I have the abilities of both the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and the Dark-Dark Fruit, then what am I?

Taotu: Damn Dixiu! He defiled me!

Kaido: The strongest creature? In front of Dishu! I am not worthy!

Aunt: Oh, oh, oh, please bow down to my beauty.

Sailing: Infinitely strengthen and build the strongest four emperors
001 This guy looks gentle and polite, but he may be full of bad intentions!
On the deck of the Moby Dick, a roar filled with endless anger suddenly sounded: “Teach! You are an unforgivable bastard!”
The roar seemed to break through the night sky, causing the surrounding air to tremble.
“Quickly capture that traitor for me! He actually killed his own brother. This behavior is simply insane and intolerable!” Someone shouted at the top of his lungs, his voice filled with grief and indignation.
“Thatch, wake up! Dad, Thatch… Thatch he… he is no longer breathing!” The cries of the crew members came one after another, intertwining together, making the originally quiet Moby Dick fall into chaos in the night.
Everyone held torches, their eyes revealing anxiety and anger, and carefully searched every corner of the ship for any trace of Teach.
In the room, Marco, Joz, Flower Sword Vista, Ace and other crew members surrounded the room tightly. Their faces were terribly gloomy, just like the dark cloud-covered night sky before a storm. The depressing atmosphere made people feel as if a big stone was pressing on their chests, making it hard to breathe.
The whole room was filled with a suffocating silence, so quiet that the only sound was the heavy breathing of everyone, as if time had stopped at this moment.
In the center of the room, Thatch lay quietly in a pool of blood. His body had become cold, and the dried blood at the corners of his mouth looked particularly shocking under the light of the torch. It was obvious that he had been dead for some time.
“Damn Teach! This beast!” Ace grabbed his hair tightly with both hands, his eyes were bloodshot and red, his eyes were full of pain and self-blame, and he stared straight at Thatch’s body.
Teach was originally a member of his team, but now he has committed such an unforgivable crime. As the captain, Ace feels that he has an unshirkable responsibility and is filled with guilt.
“Teach, I swear, I will cut you into pieces with my own hands!” Ace became more and more agitated, and he was like an active volcano that was about to erupt and could erupt at any time.
Having said that, he was about to rush out to settle the score with Teach regardless of everything.
“Ace!” Marco’s face darkened, and he quickly reached out to grab Ace, saying in a cold and serious tone: “Ace, don’t be impulsive. Wait until Dad comes, and then we can discuss countermeasures.”
Joz also walked forward, patted Ace’s shoulder gently, and comforted him: “Ace, this is not your fault. No one expected that Teach would do such a heinous thing. Sooner or later, he will pay a heavy price for his actions!”
Ace gritted his teeth and tried to raise his head to look at Thatch, his lips trembling slightly, but he couldn’t say a word.
His hands were clenched into fists, the joints turning white from excessive force, and he looked as if he could really smash a mountain into pieces with one punch.
At this moment, a cry filled with shock and confusion broke the suffocating atmosphere.
“Oh my God! Where is this? Is this still the world I am familiar with?”
“Ace? Joz? Flower Sword Vista? And… Marco? Why are you all here?”
“Could it be that I have traveled to the world of One Piece? This is too unbelievable!” Di Xiu recovered from his extreme shock. He looked around in panic, and his gazes met everyone’s.
For a moment, everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the whole room suddenly became extremely stiff.
“It seems that I woke up at a very unfortunate time.” Dishu noticed Sachi’s body on the ground, looked at the tense scene around him, and immediately understood the current situation.
Especially the undisguised hostility in everyone’s eyes made his heart skip a beat and he had a bad feeling.
“Who are you?” Marco frowned, his eyes full of doubt. He was sure that he had never seen this strange face before, and he couldn’t help but feel a little wary.
Others also turned their eyes to Di Xiu and shook their heads, indicating that they didn’t know him.
Then, they clenched their weapons tightly and slowly approached Di Xiu with vigilant looks on their faces. They looked like they would subdue him immediately if Di Xiu made any suspicious move.
“This guy looks gentle and polite, but he might be full of bad intentions!”
“Yes, maybe he is the accomplice of that traitor Teach!”
“Catch him first, don’t let him run away!”
Just when everyone was about to take action, Ace quickly raised his hand to stop them and said, “Wait! He is the person that Thatch and I rescued.”
Marco and the others looked at Ace in confusion. Ace, without any hesitation, immediately told them the origins of Dishu.
“Yesterday, Thatch and I encountered a group of pirates. After we dealt with them, we found this guy unconscious on the sea on the way back to the ship, so we rescued him.”
Aiston paused, looked up at Di Xiu, and thought of Thatch, and couldn’t help but sigh sadly, “I was planning to send him away when he woke up, but I didn’t expect Thatch to… just leave like this…”
“So this is the person that Thatch saved.”
“The captain is such a nice person, but why do good people always have such a miserable life!” Everyone sighed, and after confirming that Di Xiu was not a suspect, their attention turned back to Sachi’s matter, and the sad mood filled the room again.

After a few minutes, Di Xiu finally accepted the fact that he had traveled through time.
Recalling his previous life, he stayed up late playing games and ended up losing more than a dozen games in a row. In the end, he met a teammate who used Cai Wenji as a jungler. He was so angry that he couldn’t breathe. He didn’t expect to come to this world when he opened his eyes again.
Fortunately, he traveled through time; unfortunately, he was wearing clothes and his physical fitness was still at the fragile level of a college student on Earth. In this pirate world full of dangers, he was like a lamb to be slaughtered, unable to fight back.
If Thatch hadn’t rescued him from the sea, he probably wouldn’t have made it through the first chapter of this story!
“Since I’m already here, I can only stay here and be at ease. Where’s the system? System, come out soon!” Di Xiu kept calling out in his heart.
In his previous life, apart from playing games, he liked to read all kinds of exciting novels. According to the routine, time travelers usually have a system.
But after waiting for a long time, there was no sound. “Oh no! Don’t I have a system?” Di Xiu felt disappointed.
At this moment, the noisy pirates suddenly quieted down, and the whole room was silent.
Then, a figure as tall and broad as a mountain slowly walked in. It was Whitebeard! The moment Di Xiu saw him, his pupils shrank suddenly.
It is indeed a giant! In this pirate world full of strange creatures, a height of more than six meters is not particularly rare, but in the past life, this was definitely a height beyond imagination.
Whitebeard’s gaze was as cold as an ice blade in the cold night, and deep in his eyes was a rage like a volcano about to erupt.
With every step he took, the temperature around him seemed to drop sharply, and a solemn and murderous atmosphere instantly enveloped the entire room.
Di Xiu couldn’t help but shiver and swallowed hard.
Is this the legendary strong man? Even though his body was full of IV tubes and wrapped in thick bandages, and his life was nearing its end, the majesty of the strong man was still frightening.
Di Xiu sighed inwardly and closed his eyes.
Even without watching it, he knew what would happen next: Thatch’s death would completely infuriate Whitebeard, and he would issue a global wanted order and hunt down Teach with all his might.
Afterwards, Ace will take the initiative to request to capture Teach, but he is caught by Teach and handed over to the World Government in exchange for the status of Shichibukai.
What followed was the world-famous Battle of Marineford.
Di Xiu was very familiar with these plots, after all, he had seen them more than once.
As for whether or not to disclose this information, he still needs to think about it.
He now wants to stay in the Whitebeard Pirates. After all, he is just an ordinary college student who has neither powerful military power nor means to protect himself.
In this dangerous world of pirates, you can lose your life if you are not careful.
But the Whitebeard Pirates have never taken in useless people, and he doesn’t want to recognize someone else as his father for no reason.
As he was thinking, Whitebeard sighed deeply. He slowly stretched out his right hand and gently stroked Thatch’s forehead, as if to soothe Thatch’s soul, and finally closed Thatch’s eyes that had refused to close.
“Sachi, Dad will definitely avenge you!”
Whitebeard stood up, his voice deep and firm, resounding throughout the room like a bell: “Sons! Issue a wanted order and hunt down the traitor Teach worldwide. We must not let him get away!”
“Yes! We must make that bastard Teach pay a heavy price!”
“How dare this despicable fellow to harm his own brother!”
“Dad, this is all my fault. I beg you to let me hunt down Teach. I promise you that I will bring him back alive and make him confess in front of Thatch!”
Ace’s face was covered in tears, his expression distorted by anger and self-blame. He looked at Whitebeard earnestly, hoping to get his consent.
Whitebeard was silent for a moment…
“Tsk, tsk, tsk…” Di Xiu secretly shook his head in his heart. He knew that Ace’s departure might trigger the terrible war on the top…
At this moment, a crisp “ding” sound suddenly rang in Di Xiu’s mind, and this sound made him feel ecstatic!
“This sound…if I’m not mistaken, it must be the system that has finally arrived!” Di Xiu was so excited that he almost shouted out loud.
Sure enough, [Ding, the God-level Creation System has been activated! ]【The new member gift pack has been opened! 】
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Devil Fruit Enhancement Technology! ][Devil Fruit Enhancement Technology: In simple terms, it is to give the ability user additional abilities after enhancement! And there are no restrictions! Whether it is the natural, superhuman or animal-type devil fruit ability, it can be enhanced! ][First time success rate: 100%! ]“System, you are really my savior!” Di Xiu couldn’t help but praise in his heart. This ability is simply amazing! Devil Fruit Enhancement? This means that he can let others get the abilities they want!
In the world of pirates, obtaining a devil fruit is already extremely difficult, let alone obtaining the fruit ability that you desire.
Most people will never have the chance to come into contact with a devil fruit in their lifetime. Only a very few lucky people can possess devil fruit abilities, and these abilities are often acquired randomly.
It can be said that except for those with special identities and privileges, others have no choice at all.
There are even some people who originally had good strength, but after eating the devil fruit, their appearance and body shape changed, and as a result, their strength decreased and became mediocre.
But now, these problems are no problem for Di Xiu! With the devil fruit enhancement technology, anyone can get the ability they dream of through him!

003 Is this guy still asleep and talking nonsense here? (Old version)
Di Xiu took a deep breath and concentrated on examining the abilities he possessed. As he gained a deeper understanding of his abilities, his expression gradually became serious.
The Devil Fruit Enhancement Technology is indeed extremely powerful, but it is not free. Each enhancement costs 1 billion Baileys! Fortunately, the success rate of the first enhancement is almost certain, which also provides him with some room for maneuver.
So he began to carefully plan his next move in his mind.
“Dad, let me go!”
Ace was emotional again, his voice low but filled with uncontrollable anger, he shouted loudly, “Teach did such an unforgivable thing, as the captain, I have an unshirkable responsibility. Among those present, no one is more suitable than me to deal with him!”
Looking at Ace’s face full of pain and self-blame, Whitebeard knew very well that he couldn’t stop him at all.
Even if he refused now, with Ace’s temper, he would definitely sneak out and settle the score with Teach later.
In that case, he might as well agree to him, and he is quite confident in Ace’s strength.
“Well, since you are so determined…”
“No, we can’t let him go!” An abrupt voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Whitebeard’s words and instantly attracting the attention of everyone present. Ace didn’t react for a moment, and turned his head blankly to look at the source of the voice – Di Xiu.
“You…why are you stopping me? Are you secretly colluding with Teach?” Ace’s tone suddenly became hostile, and his eyes revealed a dangerous aura.
Seeing this, the other minions also showed fierce looks on their faces and held their weapons tighter. Whitebeard also cast his eyes on Di Xiu. His huge body, which was six meters tall, looked down at Di Xiu from above. The strong sense of oppression made Di Xiu feel as if a mountain was pressing heavily on him. Di Xiu was so nervous that he swallowed his saliva and hurriedly explained:
“Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing to do with Teach. Thatch once saved my life. Teach is my mortal enemy, and I wish I could get rid of him myself.”
Ace stared at Di Xiu’s eyes, trying to find a flaw in his expression. When he found that Di Xiu was not lying, his emotions eased a little and he asked, “Then why did you stop me?”
Di Xiu answered seriously: “I’m not trying to stop you, but I think it’s not a wise choice to hunt down Tiqi now.”
Ace frowned. At the moment, his mind was filled with thoughts of revenge and he couldn’t hear any other words.
At this moment, Whitebeard heard what Di Xiu said, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes, but his face remained serious. He said “Oh?” softly, and then asked: “Why do you say it’s not appropriate? Do you know something unknown?”
When the people around saw Whitebeard asking, they all became interested and listened carefully. Ace also suppressed his excitement and looked at Di Xiu, expecting him to give a reasonable explanation.
Di Xiu felt a little uncomfortable, after all, he was suddenly being closely watched by so many people, but he couldn’t care about it at the moment. He knew in his heart that if he wanted to stay in the Whitebeard Pirates, he had to show his value.
“Have you ever thought carefully about why Teach dared to kill so blatantly? You know, he must be aware of the serious consequences of betrayal, but he still took this path without hesitation. What is the reason behind this?”
Marco was the first to frown and speculated, “Could it be that he has some powerful backing outside? For example, one of the Four Emperors is backing him up?”
Di Xiu shook his head slightly and said, “You may not believe it, but Teach is quite powerful, especially in physical skills. He is even able to hurt Red-Haired Shanks.”
“Shanks? You’re kidding me?”
“Teach is just an ordinary member of the ship. How could he possibly hurt a Four Emperor like Red Hair Shanks?”
“Could this guy be still asleep and talking nonsense here?”
…
Facing the ridicule of others, Di Xiu ignored it. Whitebeard also frowned, as if he remembered something important, and asked, “Are you saying that the scar on Red Hair’s face was caused by Teach?”
Dishu was slightly startled, but he quickly reacted. Since Whitebeard and Red Hair are both Four Emperors, it is normal for them to have some unknown secrets.
“Yes, that’s him.”
Whitebeard fell silent, his expression becoming more solemn. Seeing Whitebeard’s reaction, the others couldn’t help but gasp, and were greatly shocked. Could it be that Teach’s physical skills were really so powerful?
Marco frowned helplessly and reached out to pat Ace’s shoulder.
“Teacher is a man of deep thoughts, and he has been hiding it very well. His physical skills can actually compete with the Four Emperors. Let’s not act rashly for now.”
Ace’s eyes were burning with anger, mixed with resentment, and his teeth were chattering with anger.
“So what if I’m good at physical skills? I’m the user of the Natural Flame-Flame Fruit. I can totally make up for my lack of physical skills with the power of the fruit.”
He still couldn’t swallow this breath. When he thought of the happy times he had with Sachi, he felt as if his heart was stabbed by a knife. He secretly swore in his heart that he must avenge Sachi!

004 If he hadn’t reminded us, we would have been in danger this time (old version)
“Humph! What a brave but foolish fellow.” Di Xiu mocked mercilessly. If Ace had not been so conceited, he would not have been easily caught by Teach.
During the Battle of Marineford, Ace lost his mind and turned against the admiral just because of a taunt from Akainu, and eventually lost his life.
At that time, Di Xiu was furious. He didn’t expect that after traveling to this pirate world, he would encounter a similar scene again.
So, he didn’t hesitate to taunt Ace.
“What! How dare you call me a reckless man?!” Ace roared angrily, “Thatch saved your life, and now not only do you not help me get revenge, you are also sneering at me!”
Di Xiu sneered.
“Do you know what fruit Blackbeard stole?”
“It’s the Dark-Dark Fruit, so what? My Flame-Flame Fruit is more than capable of defeating him!” Ace retorted unconvinced, full of confidence in his own strength.
“Do you really understand the Dark-Dark Fruit?” Di Xiu asked back, which stumped Ace.
“No… not sure.”
“Hmph! Then let me tell you. As long as you are touched by the Dark-Dark Fruit user, no matter which fruit user you are, you will lose your ability in a short period of time and become an ordinary person without any special abilities!”
Di Xiu narrowed his eyes and stared at Ace.
“Do you think you can still hurt Teach with your Taijutsu when you lose your powers?”
Hearing what Di Xiu said, Ace was stunned for a moment, his eyes full of disbelief.
“Impossible… The Dark-Dark Fruit actually has this ability to make other ability users temporarily lose their abilities and become ordinary people?!”
He originally thought that the Dark-Dark Fruit was just a type of natural fruit and never expected it to have such strange and unique abilities.
If Teach could really make his abilities ineffective through contact, then he really wouldn’t be able to fight against Teach, and there was even a high chance that he would be caught by Teach.
When Ace thought about the terrible consequences that might happen if he was caught, he couldn’t help but shudder, and fear surged in his heart.
“I…I know I was wrong. It was me…I was too impulsive…”
Marco frowned and said to himself, “The Dark-Dark Fruit is so mysterious?”
“That’s not all. Because of Teach’s special physique, he can also use the Dark-Dark Fruit to gain the abilities of two more fruits! Once he succeeds, he will become the only person in this ocean who possesses the abilities of three fruits!”
When the others heard the news, they were so shocked that they were speechless. How powerful would a person with three fruit abilities have to be? It was simply unimaginable.
Fortunately, Dishu told everyone about this in advance, otherwise if Ace acted rashly and was caught by Teach, the consequences would be disastrous.
Who would have thought that the Dark-Dark Fruit was so strange and could allow a person to possess the abilities of three devil fruits? This guy Teach is really deliberate and scary.
“Yes, thanks to Di Xiu. If he hadn’t reminded us, we would have been in danger this time.”
“So what should we do now? How about we all go hunt down Teach and get rid of him together!”
Everyone started discussing it, clamoring to hunt down Teach, thinking that he would not be able to fight against everyone alone.
Di Xiu couldn’t help but admire the ideas of these pirates.
“Dad, please make the decision. We will all follow your arrangements.”
Everyone’s eyes were on Whitebeard, waiting for his instructions.
Whitebeard frowned. The Dark-Dark Fruit was indeed as terrifying as the rumors said. Back then, he was defeated by Garp and Roger because of the wrong timing.
Now that the Dark-Dark Fruit has fallen into Teach’s hands, there will definitely be no peace in this sea anymore.
But Teach killed his companions on his ship, this kind of thing can never be let go!
At this time, Whitebeard’s eyes fell on Di Xiu, and he found that this young man knew much more than what he saw on the surface.
Moreover, Di Xiu stopped Ace from acting impulsively, which was equivalent to saving Ace’s life, which showed that he had a good heart. Thinking of this, Whitebeard asked Di Xiu: “Di Xiu, what suggestions do you have for this matter?”
Hearing Whitebeard ask this, Di Xiu was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that Whitebeard would actually ask for his opinion.
He is not yet an official member of the Whitebeard Pirates. It is only because Thatch once saved him that he has the opportunity to express his opinions here, but that’s all.
Now Whitebeard actually took the initiative to ask him what he thought. It seemed that he had a good impression in Whitebeard’s heart and his status had improved.
“My thoughts are actually not complicated.”
Di Xiu smiled, his eyes swept over everyone present, and he said slowly:
“There are many ways to take revenge, but killing the other person directly is the least technical and the most boring way.”
“Um?”
“hiss……”
The group of pirates were confused and had no idea what Di Xiu meant.
Isn’t killing your enemies the most direct and effective way to take revenge? They have always done this!
005 If you don’t believe me, I can’t help it. Time will prove everything (old version)
Before everyone had time to think about it carefully, Di Xiu spoke.
“The most powerful form of revenge is not complicated. It is to let the enemy live well but in endless pain, which is more painful than death.” Di Xiu’s voice was icy and chilling, as if it brought the chill from hell.
“He must be shrouded in fear every night, unable to sleep at all, always on edge, worried that he might lose his life at any time!
He was in a state of high tension the whole day long, his spirit was stretched to the limit, until he was on the verge of collapse. Even if he saw a bird flying by, he would feel that his life was hanging by a thread!
This is the perfect revenge!”
Everyone looked at Di Xiu in surprise, with a hint of fear in their eyes. Just imagining that scene in their minds, everyone’s legs began to tremble slightly uncontrollably.
Who would have thought that this person who looks clean on the outside is so cruel on the inside!
The previous methods of directly eliminating the enemy and quickly completing revenge seemed too simple and crude in the face of Dishu’s philosophy.
The truly brilliant revenge is to make the other party trapped in the quagmire of fear and despair at all times. This is the top means of revenge!
In comparison, everyone knew that compared to Di Xiu, they were far from truly understanding the way pirates do things, and Di Xiu was the one who truly understood this!
When Whitebeard heard what Di Xiu said, he couldn’t help but feel a little surprised. He didn’t expect that this young pirate would have such a cruel idea.
“Humph!” Ace couldn’t help but snorted coldly, and retorted with a bit of dissatisfaction:
“It’s easy to say, but Titch is not a psychologically fragile person.
Besides, how can we make him feel scared?
He doesn’t even take his father, one of the Four Emperors, seriously, and even dares to kill people on his father’s ship.
Do you think he’ll be easily frightened?
What’s more, it won’t be long before Teach will have three fruit abilities. By then, we will be even more helpless against him.
Plus with Dad’s current health condition…” Ace stopped talking midway, but everyone present understood what he didn’t say.
Today, Whitebeard’s health condition is getting worse and worse, and he can only rely on intravenous drips to barely maintain his life.
“My health is indeed not as good as before. That guy Teach is so arrogant. He definitely doesn’t take me seriously.” Whitebeard continued Ace’s words with a hint of loss in his tone.
Everyone fell silent. At present, Whitebeard’s remaining prestige is still shocking the sea, making those who have evil intentions dare not act recklessly.
But once Whitebeard passes away and falls from the throne of the Four Emperors, what will Teach have to fear?
Marco walked up to Di Xiu and patted him gently on the shoulder.
“We know you are thinking about everyone, and we appreciate your concern, but Dad’s current physical condition doesn’t allow us to delay any longer. Teach must pay for the crime he committed, he must be punished!”
After saying that, Marco turned to Whitebeard, ready to volunteer to deal with Teach.
Seeing this, Di Xiu knew that his chance to show himself had come. He quickly stretched out his arm and blocked Marco’s chest to stop him. Then, he raised his head and looked at Whitebeard, and then his eyes slowly swept across the faces of everyone present.
“The captain will be fine. Not only that, he can live another 20 years in good health!” Di Xiu’s voice was clearly heard by everyone. Everyone was shocked and wide-eyed at first, and then looked at Di Xiu with confusion, as if they were looking at a weird person talking nonsense.
“What?! Brother, are you confused because of the fever?”
“I have absolutely no disrespect for Dad, but we all know his physical condition. It’s impossible for him to be like you said!”
“This is simply a fantasy! If you can really make my father recover, I will never hesitate to do anything you ask me to do!” Qiao Zi said this from the bottom of his heart. He felt very uncomfortable every day when he saw his father with various tubes inserted into his body.
“Child, I know you mean well, but I know my body best. I will take it one day at a time. It will never be restored to its original state.”
Di Xiu shook his head, cleared his throat, looked at everyone with a serious expression and said:
“Ahem…Actually, I’m a scientist who specializes in studying devil fruits.”
“So far, my research has yielded some results that can transfer the abilities of one person to another.”
“It’s similar to the ability of the Dark-Dark Fruit, but it’s more advanced and doesn’t have the side effect of suffering double the pain.”
Everyone was stunned. Marco walked forward, stared into Dishu’s eyes, and touched his forehead.
“You don’t have a fever, why are you saying such unbelievable things?”
Di Xiu pushed away Marco’s hand with all his strength, and said with a serious expression, “I’m not kidding you, you know? I spent a lot of effort and resources on this research. Take the enhanced devil fruit I studied, for example, the cost of each one is as high as 1 billion Baileys!”
Marco looked at Di Xiu’s serious expression and knew that he was not joking this time. “If it’s really like what you said, maybe Dad can really be saved!” Marco’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
“It’s absolutely true. How could I lie about such a thing?” Di Xiu answered affirmatively.
Marco was very excited. He turned to look at Whitebeard, his eyes flashing with excitement, as if he saw the dawn of hope. “If Dad can use this enhanced devil fruit, combined with my ability, with the powerful recovery ability of the animal type and the self-healing ability of the phoenix form, those old injuries that have tortured him for many years will definitely be completely healed!
Maybe it can greatly restore Dad’s vitality and return him to his peak state! ” Marco became more and more excited as he spoke, and he was immersed in a beautiful fantasy, as if Whitebeard had recovered to his strongest period.
When the pirates around heard Marco say this, they also became excited.
They all knew that if Whitebeard could really return to his peak, it would be great news for the entire pirate group! At that time, those guys who had been harboring ill intentions towards them would definitely be shocked and at a loss!
However, some pirates began to have doubts in their hearts, thinking that what Di Xiu said was not very reliable and suspected that he was fooling everyone.
Faced with these doubts, Di Xiu shrugged helplessly, spread his hands and said: “If you don’t believe me, there is nothing I can do. Time will prove everything.”
006 When we are strong enough, we will conquer the entire ocean! (Old version)
For a moment, everyone’s eyes were on Whitebeard, waiting for his decision.
“I believe in Di Xiu.” White Beard’s tone was firm. Although it was only four short words, it made Di Xiu feel warm in his heart.
Dishu knew that Whitebeard trusted him so much, on the one hand because he had saved Thatch’s life before, and on the other hand, he really had no reason to deceive this respected captain.
At this time, Flower Sword Bista came out with a frown on his face and said worriedly, “Dad, the financial situation on our ship is not very good now. If we count all the money, it will only be enough for Di Xiu to do two experiments.”
After hearing this, Whitebeard frowned and asked, “Only 2 billion Baileys left?”
Di Xiu hurriedly reminded everyone: “I have to make it clear to you that the production of enhanced devil fruits is not 100% successful. There is a certain probability of failure.”
After hearing what Di Xiu said, everyone was not too surprised.
After all, it is extremely incredible for a person to have a second devil fruit ability. It would be strange if there is no possibility of failure.
“Don’t worry, Di Xiu. Just focus on the experiment, we will take care of the money problem.” Hua Jian Bista patted Di Xiu’s shoulder and comforted him.
“That’s right! As long as we can cure Dad, we will be willing to do it even if it means losing all our family fortune!” Marco said with a firm look and full of expectation.
Ace took out all his savings without hesitation, stuffed them into Di Xiu’s hands, and said anxiously: “Brother Di Xiu, it all depends on you, you must succeed!”
Feeling the sincere emotions between the pirate members, Di Xiu smiled and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
In this pirate group, everyone gets along simply and purely, without any intrigue. Everyone sincerely hopes for the best for their companions and treats each other honestly. This is exactly the pirate group he has always longed to join.
“Don’t worry, I will try my best. And I believe that the captain is blessed with good fortune.” Di Xiu said this, but he had a secret in his heart – the success rate of the first experiment was actually 100%, but he didn’t intend to say this, because saying it would only bring more trouble. This secret was only known to him.
In addition, there is another important reason why he stays on Whitebeard’s ship, which is that after completing ten strengthening experiments, he will be able to unlock the next technology.
A few days passed.
The waves are rising and falling on the sea, and groups of seagulls are circling at low altitude. They chase and play with each other, chirping happily, adding a lot of vitality to the sea.
On the deck of the Whitebeard Pirate Ship, Di Xiu was lying leisurely on a lounge chair, enjoying the warm sunshine.
The small table next to it was filled with a variety of fine wines, fresh fruits, and a variety of snacks.
Ever since they learned that Dishu had a way to cure Whitebeard’s body, the members of the pirate group have been so enthusiastic towards him, almost to the point of fawning on him.
They regarded Di Xiu as a top priority and took care of him carefully, fearing that something might happen to him.
No matter what request Di Xiu made, everyone would try their best to satisfy it. Even if he said he wanted the stars in the sky, these pirates would probably rack their brains to find a way.
Faced with such excessive enthusiasm, Di Xiu felt a little helpless and repeatedly told them that it was not necessary, but they did not listen. Since Di Xiu did not make any specific requests, they followed their own ideas and tried their best to give Di Xiu the best.
Later, Di Xiu stopped persuading them and let them go.
“Di Xiu! Di Xiu! Come and take a look!” Qiao Zi’s eyes were shining, his fingers were pointing forward eagerly, and he shouted at the top of his voice.
“Gaya Island is just ahead. We are finally here!”
We’re here so soon? Hearing the call, Di Xiu stood up from his comfortable lounge chair and walked slowly to the boat railing.
He took the telescope handed to him by Joz, raised it to his eyes, and looked in the direction Joz pointed.
Through the telescope, he clearly saw the outline of the circular island with a unique gap. If you look down from the sky, Gaya Island is like an oversized round cookie with a bite taken out of it.
“Yes, that is Gaya Island.” Di Xiu nodded slightly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.
“We’re finally here. We’ve been running around these past few days and have raised a lot of money.” Marco jumped down from the mast like a nimble monkey. He looked at the Gaya Island ahead with a look of relief on his face. “However, we’re still a little short of the money to buy three strengthening fruits. Once we get to the island, we should be able to get it all together.”
After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Di Xiu, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes, and asked: “Di Xiu, are we really going to build an experimental base on this island?”
“Yes, let’s choose this place.” Di Xiu nodded vigorously with a firm look in his eyes, explaining, “We need a stable environment to do experiments. On the sea, the ship is always shaking. If something unexpected happens, it will be a big trouble.”
Ace also came over and nodded in agreement: “Di Xiu is right, it’s better to be safe than sorry, so let’s do as he says.”
Ever since Di Xiu reminded Ace to be careful of Teach, Ace felt that Di Xiu indirectly saved his life, and his attitude towards Di Xiu became more friendly.
In addition, because of Sachi, he trusted Di Xiu from the bottom of his heart.
Di Xiu looked at Gaya Island, the corners of his mouth slightly raised again, revealing a smile that was imperceptible to others.
He knew in his heart that according to the plot of the original work, Blackbeard Teach would pass by here and meet Luffy.
Now that I have come to Gaya Island in advance, I don’t know if it will change the original direction of the plot.
It would be very interesting if everything could develop like the original. He couldn’t help but imagine what kind of shocked expression would appear on Teach’s face when he saw that Whitebeard was not only physically strong but also had dual abilities. That scene would definitely be very interesting!
“We will take root here for a long time. When we are strong enough, we will conquer the entire ocean!” Di Xiu clenched his fists and said confidently.
After hearing what Di Xiu said, the others were infected by his ambition and waved their arms, shouting loudly that they wanted to conquer the boundless sea!
Gaya Island has a very advantageous geographical location and is surrounded by clear blue waters.
The island has beautiful scenery and abundant natural resources. The climate here is pleasant and warm like spring all year round, making it an ideal place for passing pirate ships and merchant ships to replenish supplies.
Therefore, the port of Gaya Island is always bustling with all kinds of ships, ranging from small and flexible speedboats to huge pirate fleets.
007 I always feel something is wrong. Could it be that the experiment has failed? (Old version)
Due to the frequent visits of pirates, the island gradually developed a series of facilities to serve these sea adventurers.
In addition to the necessary food, fresh water supplies and ship repair services, many entertainment venues also emerged, such as taverns, casinos, and even makeshift small theaters.
These places became a great place for pirates to relax and enjoy life.
As time went by, more and more businessmen discovered the business opportunities in Gaya Island and rushed here to open shops or provide various services.
However, some shady transactions also occurred here, such as the slave trade involving various races.
A large number of people with different personalities and accustomed to solving problems with force gathered on Gaya Island, so conflicts were naturally inevitable.
In this world that worships power, whether it is to compete for resources or to settle personal grudges, people often choose to confront with force directly.
This has led to frequent fierce fights on Gaya Island, sometimes even threatening the lives of ordinary residents.
Even so, for those who yearn for freedom and love adventure, Gaya Island is still full of attraction, like a huge magnet, constantly attracting batches of pirates.
But today, those pirates who usually act arrogantly on Gaya Island are now as quiet as well-behaved little sheep. Because they saw the Whitebeard Pirates and the famous Whitebeard!
“What’s going on? Why are the Four Emperors coming here instead of staying in the New World?” A pirate muttered in a low voice.
“Keep your voice down! The Four Emperors Pirates are not to be trifled with. They kill without blinking an eye. Be careful or you might lose your life!” The pirate next to him hurriedly reminded him.
“Who is that young man? I’ve never seen him before, but he can actually chat and laugh with Whitebeard.” Another pirate asked curiously.
“He must be someone special. Look where he’s standing. He’s even in front of Marco!”
“This is incredible. With his position, he could almost be the vice captain!”
Just as Di Xiu expected, relying on the great reputation of the Four Emperors, they occupied Gaya Island without much effort. After all, no one dared to challenge the authority of the Four Emperors easily.
After landing on Gaya Island, Di Xiu selected a huge manor as the experimental base.
The manor is located in the back of the center of the island, surrounded by green mountains on three sides and close to the river on one side. The geographical location is very advantageous. Qiaozi led his men to reinforce the manor’s fortifications many times to ensure that it was foolproof.
Marco and Ace were also busy. They conducted a careful search around the manor and eliminated many potential threats.
Those huge beasts were all killed by them and became delicacies on everyone’s table.
Even the annoying mosquitoes were cleaned away just to ensure Di Xiu’s safety.
After all, Di Xiu is still an ordinary person and cannot afford any mistakes.
Later, Dishu began his experiments in this manor. For scientific researchers, a stable laboratory is the basis for carrying out their work.
A week passed.
In the hall of the manor, Whitebeard sat on a chair with several IV tubes inserted into his arms and chest. His breathing was weak, his eyes were dim, and he looked very bad, but even so, he still wanted to drink.
“Gulala la la la, any news about that guy Teach?” White Beard asked in a hoarse voice.
Vista shook his head in disappointment: “Dad, there is no news at all. Could it be that Di Xiu remembered it wrongly, and that bastard is not nearby at all?”
Marco also frowned and looked up in the direction of Di Xiu’s laboratory. “It’s been a week, and there’s been no movement from Di Xiu. I always feel like something is wrong. Could the experiment have failed?”
Ace had the same concerns: “Every time I wanted to check on the situation, Di Xiu stopped me outside. Could it be that the experiment really failed? That’s 3 billion Baileys. Is it just a waste?”
After hearing this, Qiao Zi suddenly stood up from his seat, his face turned very ugly, and he was obviously very angry.
“I told you that guy is unreliable…” Qiaozi hadn’t finished his words.
Suddenly, a deafening roar broke the silence, and the sound seemed to be able to crack the sky!
Immediately afterwards, three dazzling golden lights, like the first rays of light at dawn, penetrated the thick clouds and shot straight into the sky.
The light was dazzling, full of mysterious and powerful power, and one could tell at a glance that something unusual must have happened.
The air around them began to vibrate violently, and everyone felt an irrepressible excitement and anticipation in their hearts.
“Could it be…” Everyone’s eyes were drawn to the three golden lights. They held their breath nervously, fearing to miss any exciting moment.
Whitebeard was so excited that he stood up all of a sudden, his eyes fixed on the direction of the golden light, and he even stopped breathing for a few seconds.
“Over there… that’s the direction where Di Xiu is. Could it be that the experiment is really successful?!!!”
Marco also turned his head excitedly and looked at the golden light: “This feeling can’t be wrong! And I think only if the experiment is successful, will such a magical golden light appear!”
“Hahaha, I knew that Brother Di Xiu wouldn’t let us down!” Ace’s face was full of joy, and he couldn’t wait to rush towards the direction of the golden light.
“Let’s go and take a look!” Whitebeard tore off the infusion tube on his body. The metal tube drew an arc in the air, making a crisp sound.
His movements were swift and decisive, as if he had thrown all his pain and weakness away in an instant.
He rushed out with great strides, and with every step he took, the ground shook slightly, showing his still strong strength and firm determination.
“Hiss…” Seeing this scene, Marco’s eyelids twitched violently and he couldn’t help but take a breath.
008 This is the enhanced devil fruit, but there is still one last step to complete it (old version)
Marco followed closely without any hesitation.
He knew very well that at this critical moment, even though he was extremely emotional, as a member of the team, the top priority was to ensure his father’s safety and not let his father encounter any danger at this critical juncture.
Not long after, everyone in the room left one after another, leaving Qiao Zi alone standing there, his face full of confusion. He originally thought that Di Xiu would definitely fail, but who would have thought that Di Xiu would actually succeed.
“This guy is really something. He succeeded just when I was about to say he couldn’t do it. It was as if he was deliberately going against me.” Qiao Zi snorted disdainfully, and then hurriedly followed. He thought to himself that if Di Xiu could really cure his father, he would definitely keep his promise.
At the same time, Di Xiu looked at the three devil fruits placed in front of him with a satisfied look on his face, but he was secretly complaining in his heart.
This devil fruit is too expensive, just one piece costs 1 billion Baileys! And there is no guarantee of 100% success, which undoubtedly makes the cost even higher. The average pirate group simply cannot afford such expenses.
In addition, if you want to obtain the new technology provided by the system, you must complete the task set by the system, that is, successfully strengthen the devil fruit ten times. It seems simple at first glance, but it is extremely difficult to operate in practice, especially considering the huge cost, which is even more troublesome.
Fortunately, he successfully joined the Whitebeard Pirates, otherwise even if he had this system, it would probably not be of much use. Just as Di Xiu was immersed in his thoughts, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.
The footsteps were getting closer and the sound became clearer, seeming to carry an irrepressible urgency and excitement.
When Di Xiu heard the familiar footsteps, the corners of his mouth lifted up unconsciously, revealing a smile of understanding. He knew that the person he had been waiting for had finally arrived.
Sure enough, immediately afterwards, a loud “bang” broke the silence in the room.
The tightly closed door was suddenly pushed open by a powerful force, making a dull and loud bang.
Then, Ace and Marco carefully supported Whitebeard and slowly walked into the room.
Whitebeard looked a little tired, but his eyes were shining with unconcealable joy.
When his eyes fell on the three snow-white devil fruits on the table, he was stunned for a moment!
At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the air was filled with an indescribable wonderful atmosphere.
It took a long time for Whitebeard to come back to his senses, his eyes full of excitement and disbelief.
Di Xiu stepped forward and began to explain: “Captain, this is the enhanced devil fruit, but there is still one last step to complete it.” Then he looked at Marco, “Captain Marco, please drop a drop of blood on each of these three devil fruits. Only in this way can they complete the last step of strengthening.”
“no problem!”
Marco was very excited. He walked forward quickly, cut his finger with his finger, and then carefully and tremblingly dripped blood on the devil fruit.
It was seen that the pure white devil fruit seemed to have activated some mysterious power the moment it came into contact with the blood.
It began to rapidly absorb the blood around it, just like a sponge that had been dry for a long time and suddenly encountered water, and absorbed it greedily.
Then, the fruit emitted a dazzling blue light, which was so strong that people could not even look directly at it.
As time passed, the blue light became brighter and brighter, as if it was about to break through a certain limit and could burst into flames at any time.
In the process, the surface of the devil fruit also underwent surprising changes.
A series of complex and strange patterns suddenly appeared on the originally smooth and flawless skin. These patterns spread rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, eventually covering the entire fruit.
Each line emits a faint blue light, giving people a feeling that is both beautiful and dangerous.
Everyone held their breath nervously, watching in disbelief what was happening before their eyes.
In just a few seconds, the three devil fruits underwent amazing changes!
They each emit a soft yet extremely eye-catching blue light, lying quietly on the test bench, like the brightest stars in the night sky.
This magical scene astonished everyone present. Everyone’s hearts were filled with shock, and countless questions popped up in their minds: What Di Xiu said was actually true!
“Three…three mythical beasts-Phoenix Fruits!!!”
Everyone couldn’t believe their eyes, and kept rubbing their eyes, carefully checking again and again. They found that the three identical devil fruits in front of them were actually animal-type? Bird-Bird Fruit? Mythical Beast? Phoenix Form!
Marco’s eyes widened, his face full of shock. His body trembled slightly, and he took two steps forward, almost unable to believe that what he saw was real.
He slowly reached out his hand and carefully touched the surface of one of the devil fruits, wanting to confirm that this was not an illusion.
The smooth yet slightly cold touch made him even more certain that all this was happening in reality.
Marco’s voice was trembling a little, and he said to himself: “This… This is exactly the same as the one I ate! It’s unbelievable!”
Other people around also gathered around, each with an expression of surprise and confusion on their face.
“Di Xiu is so awesome!”
“He actually did it, slap me now, I feel like I’m dreaming!!”
“Fuck! Why did you kick me? It hurts so much…”
There was an incredible atmosphere in the air, and everyone was deeply shocked by this miraculous discovery.
Marco took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitement.
“Of course it’s true.” Di Xiu walked forward, picked up one of the devil fruits, and handed it to Whitebeard, “Captain, please try it.”
Whitebeard smiled and took the devil fruit from Di Xiu without any hesitation. He looked at Di Xiu deeply.
“This won’t explode, will it?”
009 If this really works, you can be my son (old version)
“Uh… no…” Di Xiu scratched his head awkwardly. He didn’t expect Whitebeard to still have such concerns at this time. He was about to explain when he was interrupted by Whitebeard.
“Gulala, thank you, little Dexiu. If this works, you will be my son.”
Di Xiu: “….”
When the others heard this, they all burst into laughter. They looked at Di Xiu with more affectionate eyes, which was a recognition of their companion.
Whitebeard did not hesitate and swallowed the devil fruit in one gulp under the gaze of everyone.
He slowly closed his eyes, as if he was carefully feeling every subtle change in his body.
Everyone around was holding their breath nervously, not daring to even breathe, as if any louder breathing would disturb Whitebeard.
As time passed, everyone became more and more nervous, and sweat involuntarily formed in their palms, which were wet and cool.
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Whitebeard, their gazes full of anticipation, yet also mixed with a hint of uneasiness.
There was a tension in the air that was hard to describe in words, but in this tension, there was a glimmer of hope.
Everyone was praying silently in their hearts: “You must succeed, Dad!”
Di Xiu was not worried about this at all, because the moment he picked up the devil fruit, he used the ability of “100% success first time” in his mind, so he knew that Whitebeard would definitely not fail.
really,
Not long after, snow-white flames began to burn on Whitebeard’s body.
This kind of flame does not give people the feeling of being scorching hot, but rather full of a vibrant atmosphere.
As time went by, it was obvious that the wounds on his body were healing rapidly: first the wounds stopped bleeding, then the skin began to scab, and then new tissues replaced the damaged parts bit by bit.
The entire healing process was like time going backwards, and all the wounds were completely healed!
Afterwards, his breathing gradually became steady, no longer as rapid and heavy as before.
The whole person looks as if he is 20 years younger. Not only has his appearance changed a lot, but his mental state is also completely new!
The eyes that originally looked a little tired due to the battle now glowed with brilliance again, revealing an indescribable sense of power.
At this moment, the surrounding air seemed to be infected by the new breath of life from Whitebeard, becoming exceptionally fresh and full of vitality.
“Dad…it worked! Dad really has dual abilities!”
“That’s great. Teach tried so hard to get dual abilities, but I didn’t expect Dad to get them so easily!”
“Thank you, Brother Dixiu!”
“Back off quickly, the flames on Daddy’s body are getting bigger!”
When everyone saw this, they hurriedly retreated and quickly made way for the area, because they saw that the flames on Whitebeard’s body were burning more and more fiercely, and the range was getting larger and larger.
The flame was like a raging fire, emitting a scorching breath that made people dare not get close.
Then, the flames suddenly shrank rapidly, forming something like a cocoon, wrapping Whitebeard inside.
This cocoon looks very strange. It is made of flames, but it can wrap Whitebeard tightly.
Everyone could feel that Whitebeard’s life breath was growing stronger and stronger, as if there was an extremely powerful beast imprisoned inside!
They couldn’t help but sigh, what a powerful force this was!
Dad can actually control such a fierce flame and transform it into his own power.
“Phoenix cocoon!” Marco looked at the cocoon in front of him in surprise, and his words were incoherent with excitement: “In this form, I can restore my physical condition to the greatest extent, and I can also heal those long-standing hidden injuries and old illnesses!”
After a while,
With a crisp “click” sound, it was as if the fragile glass finally broke under the huge pressure.
Then, the huge cocoon formed by the white flames suddenly collapsed and turned into countless tiny sparks, which slowly drifted away in the air and disappeared, as if it had never existed.
When the last ray of Mars gradually disappeared from people’s sight,
Everyone present saw that Whitebeard stood firmly in place, his broad and majestic cape swaying gently in the breeze. There were no scars or injuries on his healthy body.
This scene shocked everyone who witnessed it – this is the power of the Phoenix form!
Not only can it heal all injuries on the user’s body, the powerful recovery ability and vitality it contains can even restore Whitebeard to his peak condition!
Such a powerful and mysterious force is simply unbelievable!
“call—-“
Whitebeard let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes were bright and lively, as if they could see through the essence of all things in the world, and were full of energy and vitality.
He moved his body gently and found that his whole body felt extremely comfortable, without any feeling of tiredness at all.
Those places that had been aching for years had now disappeared without a trace, as if they had never been there.
He felt as if he had been reborn. Every cell in his body was beating happily and filled with endless strength.
His heart was beating vigorously, and every beat seemed to announce his rebirth to the world. His muscles were tight and strong, and each muscle seemed to contain endless energy.
“Life is so beautiful…”
At this moment, he truly felt the beauty and power of life. He knew clearly that he was no longer the old man who was tortured by illness and exhausted. He was reborn and had the courage and strength to pursue his dreams again.
He turned around, looked at Di Xiu with satisfaction, stretched out his right hand, and said softly:
“Dixie, be my son!”
In an office in Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
A marine rushed into Zhan Guo’s office in a hurry without even knocking on the door.
“Report!” he shouted.
Zhan Guo was playing with the goat beside him with a handful of grass in his hand. Hearing the call, he put down the grass, patted the goat’s head gently, and signaled it to go play somewhere else.
“Why are you so flustered?” Zhan Guo said with a frown.
010 Marshal of the Warring States Period, it seems like it’s my vacation time now (old version)
The marine swallowed hard, and with a “pa” he hastily placed the crucial document in his hand on Warring States desk.
“Report… Report to the Marshal, the White… Whitebeard Pirates are taking unusual actions!” the Marine said breathlessly.
“Whitebeard Pirates?” Sengoku frowned slightly, a trace of doubt on his face, “Whitebeard is already a man who is about to be buried, what big noise can he make?”
As he spoke, he slowly reached out his hand, picked up the seemingly ordinary but actually significant document on the table, and opened the first page.
Zhan Guo’s eyes swept across the densely packed words on the document line by line, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter. Those words seemed to have become a series of difficult-to-solve puzzles, making him fall into deep thought.
As I read more, this confusion not only did not ease, but instead became more and more intense like a snowball.
When he saw the last few pages of the document, Zhan Guo could no longer suppress the doubts and confusion in his heart.
Finally, he finished reading the entire document carefully from beginning to end, slowly raised his head, his face full of disbelief.
Then he turned his gaze to the Marine standing not far away, his eyes full of questions.
“What exactly do they want to do by going to Jaya Island? Why are they purchasing so many resources? Are these pirates planning to open a factory to whitewash themselves?” There was surprise and a bit of sarcasm in Zhan Guo’s tone, and he was obviously very surprised by this situation.
The Marine shook his head helplessly, indicating that he didn’t know either.
“Okay, continue to observe closely. If there is any movement from the Whitebeard Pirates, report to me immediately!” Sengoku ordered seriously.
“Yes!” The Marine received the order and left the room in a hurry. The whole process took less than a minute. At this time, Garp walked into the office while eating senbei and laughing.
Garp seemed to be completely unaware of Sengoku’s frown and unhappy expression. He sat down on the sofa carelessly, enjoying this rare afternoon time leisurely.
The office was filled with a faint scent of tea. The originally peaceful atmosphere was somewhat disrupted by Cap’s arrival.
Karp seemed to be in a particularly good mood, with a relaxed smile on his face and satisfied sounds coming out from time to time, as if he was immersed in his own world and all the troubles in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
“Garp!!!” Sengoku suddenly roared, and the roar directly shook Garp off the sofa.
Sengoku angrily threw a stack of newspapers at Garp and shouted, “Look at what your grandson has done. He’s almost turned Alabasta upside down!”
Garp took the newspaper and instead of getting angry, he burst into laughter as he looked at what Luffy did in the newspaper.
“Well done, Luffy!” Garp praised.
“Garp!!!” Zhan Guo was so angry that he wanted to stuff the grass for goats into the old man’s mouth. “Your grandson is already a worry enough for me. Now that Whitebeard is so old, he actually starts to cause trouble. I am really annoyed by you guys.”
Hmm? Whitebeard? Garp looked at Sengoku in confusion when he heard the name. He grabbed a handful of senbei and stuffed it into his mouth, and asked while eating, “What happened to Whitebeard? He is almost half of the Four Emperors, what else can he do?”
“Yes.” Zhan Guo stretched out his hand and pushed the documents on the table. “I don’t know what happened to Whitebeard, but he ran to Paradise and occupied an island.”
“What?” Garp was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise, “Whitebeard came to the Grand Line? When did it happen?”
As he said this, he picked up the document and started reading it. As he read it, he couldn’t help laughing out loud, “Hahaha, Whitebeard is choosing a grave for himself.”
However, Zhan Guo felt that the matter was not that simple and analyzed: “Whitebeard is not the kind of person who acts rashly on impulse. He must have thought carefully before doing anything. There must be some reason behind his actions.”
Karp agrees.
“Then let’s send someone over to take a look. If Whitebeard really has some hidden secret, we can know it in advance so we can prepare to deal with it.” Garp suggested.
“This is the only way…” Zhan Guo said helplessly.
Just as Zhan Guo was about to give the order, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door.
“Report!”
It was the same Marine from before. This time he didn’t even bother knocking on the door and rushed straight into the office.
“Report to the Marshal, there is urgent information to report!” the Marine said loudly.
“Tell me!” Zhan Guo said seriously.
“Reporting to the Marshal, just now, three golden lights shot up into the sky suddenly appeared on Gaya Island occupied by Whitebeard!” said the Marine.
“Some treasure must have appeared in the world!” someone speculated.
“And we received intelligence that the location where the golden light appeared is at the private manor of a captain of the Whitebeard Pirates.” The Marine continued to report.
Hearing this, Zhan Guo could no longer sit still. He and Garp looked at each other, and both saw shock and confusion in each other’s eyes.
“Golden light rising into the sky?”
“It must be something extraordinary. Maybe Whitebeard is conducting some secret experiment.” Zhan Guo speculated.
“That must be the case.” Garp also nodded in agreement. Otherwise, he really couldn’t think of anything else that would make Whitebeard run from the New World to Paradise and occupy an island.
“We must send someone to investigate this matter immediately.” Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Zhan Guo turned around and instructed the marine.
“Go and call General Aokiji.”
“Yes!” The Marine received the order and left quickly.
Not long after, Aokiji walked into the office slowly.
“Ah~ Marshal Sengoku, it seems like it’s my vacation time now.” Aokiji said lazily.
“Due to special circumstances, your vacation is temporarily canceled.” Zhan Guo said.
Afterwards, Sengoku told Aokiji the information he had just obtained.
After hearing this, Aokiji also frowned, “According to what you said, something unusual must have happened over there. We really need to investigate it thoroughly.”
“That’s why I asked you to come.” Zhan Guo said.
“Ala~” Aokiji waved his hand and turned to leave. His voice came from outside the door, “I know, I’ll go right away. Remember to double my vacation time after I’m done.”
“Hmph… This is the apprentice you taught, Garp, who has even learned to bargain with the marshal!” Sengoku said unhappily.
“Hahahaha, Sengoku, you have to give some benefits when you ask someone to do something for you.” Garp responded with a big laugh.
011 What happened? I don’t remember it (old version)
In a certain sea area of ​​the Grand Route.
A canoe was moving slowly on the sea, and the person rowing the canoe was Teach, who had a stubbled face, looked vicissitudes and sloppy, but his eyes were bright and full of ambition.
He stared straight ahead, rowing without stopping for a moment.
“Hahaha, old man Whitebeard, you can look for me all over the world. You can never imagine in your dreams that I have already run to the other side of the Red Earth Continent!” Teach laughed proudly.
He looked at everything around him with satisfaction. Although he had only gathered a few crew members at present, the breath of freedom made him feel comfortable all over.
“When I, Blackbeard, form my own pirate group, I will definitely come to find you, Dad!” Teach clenched his fists, his eyes revealing determination, “Because I also want to get back the Four Emperors Devil Fruit that belongs to me!”
“I’m really looking forward to my dad’s expression when the time comes. He will definitely be shocked, hahahaha!” The more Teach thought about it, the more excited he became, and he rowed even harder. His primary goal now was to form his own pirate group as soon as possible to resist the pursuit of the Whitebeard Pirates.
In an experimental base in a manor on Gaya Island.
Facing Whitebeard’s enthusiastic invitation, Di Xiu felt a little troubled. Whitebeard’s habit of wanting to adopt anyone as his son had not changed at all.
However, Di Xiu did not have such a habit. He felt it was more appropriate to call Whitebeard the captain.
“Captain, I… I can join the Whitebeard Pirates, but I’m still used to calling you Captain.” Di Xiu said.
“Gulala, what an interesting kid, it’s just a name, call me whatever you want.” Whitebeard laughed heartily, and kept moving his body. He enjoyed the feeling of having abundant energy again, which was a rare feeling.
Others also gathered around and kept congratulating Whitebeard.
At some point, Ace came to Di Xiu and said with an apologetic look on his face: “Brother Di Xiu, I apologize to you for my previous attitude.”
“Ah? What happened? I don’t remember anything.” Di Xiu said with a laugh.
“Brother Di Xiu, thank you so much. If you hadn’t stopped me in time, I would definitely have gotten into bigger trouble.” Ace said sincerely, the hatred in his eyes was clearly visible.
“Regarding the matter of Teach, let’s do as you say. Killing him directly would be too easy for him. He should live in fear every day.” Ace said gritting his teeth.
Seeing the change in Ace, Di Xiu was very relieved. He thought, without Ace as the trigger, the war on the top should not happen again, right? But Di Xiu was not sure.
Even if the war really happened, it wouldn’t be a big deal. After all, Whitebeard had already acquired the power of the mythical beast species, the Phoenix form, and it would not be so easy to kill him now.
Whitebeard’s vitality is extremely strong, even comparable to his peak period! You know, Whitebeard in his peak period did not have the bonus of the animal-type fruit, so the current Whitebeard’s strength is completely equal to or even exceeds his peak state.
If such powerful four emperors appeared in the war at the top, it would be enough to cause headaches for Sengoku and others.
Di Xiu saw Whitebeard pick up Kusugawa Kirei and began to wield the knife. Every time he swung the knife, a cold light flashed, like ice crystals in winter, leaving silver-white traces in the air.
Every swing of Whitebeard is full of strength and determination. His moves are open and closed, not only showing an unparalleled sense of power, but also making people feel an indescribable momentum. That momentum is like an awakened tiger, running and roaring in the jungle, announcing to the world that his territory is inviolable!
With each attack of Whitebeard, the surrounding air seemed to be torn apart by this powerful force, making a slight popping sound. One can’t help but imagine that if this power continues to accumulate, it might really be able to cut off the island with one sword and split the sea in two!
In the world of pirates, ability, physical skills and Haki are equally important. A truly strong person is proficient in almost all of these aspects.
As for Di Xiu, he currently has nothing. So he understands that he can only survive in this world by relying on the strong, or letting the strong rely on him.
His physical condition is weak now, he doesn’t know physical skills or swordsmanship. Although he can eat devil fruits, he doesn’t plan to eat them now.
On the one hand, he felt it was unnecessary. Under the protection of the Whitebeard Pirates, he was safe, and eating the devil fruit would only increase his weaknesses.
On the other hand, he is waiting for a stronger fruit to appear. The pirate world is full of unknowns, and no one can say for sure whether a more powerful fruit will appear.
Moreover, Di Xiu also knew that he couldn’t be so naive as to think that he could dominate the world with just one devil fruit. He had to take one step at a time, and if he wanted to rise, he had to do it slowly.
Just as Di Xiu was thinking about these things, the beautiful electronic voice of the system suddenly rang in his mind.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the first enhancement. 】
[Get reward: automatic training! ][Current mission progress: Strengthen ten times (1/10)]【After completing the mission, unlock new technology! 】
“Automatic cultivation? This is such a pleasant surprise.” Di Xiu looked at the reward given by the system with surprise and clicked on it involuntarily.
After reading the reward introduction, he understood. It turned out that as long as he was alive, even if he didn’t practice hard, his strength would improve little by little, and the degree of improvement was the same as those who practiced hard!
[PS: In the One Piece world, the training of martial arts or physical skills is collectively referred to as cultivation.]“This is tailor-made for me.” Di Xiu was ecstatic. This way of becoming stronger without hard training was really suitable for him. If he didn’t have this ability, he didn’t know when he would be able to become stronger.
“Dad, Dad, stop playing for now.” Marco suppressed his inner excitement and quickly stepped forward and said, “Dad, you just recovered and need a comprehensive check-up.”
Whitebeard understood Marco’s character and knew that he could not avoid the inspection today, so he had to stop what he was doing and let Marco check.
“Hurry up, I have endless energy now. I have to say, the ability of the fruit in the Phoenix form is really useful!” said Whitebeard.
“Got it, Dad. Stretch out your hand.” Marco smiled and took out a stethoscope, then quickly and carefully examined Whitebeard.
“Dad, are you okay? Marco, you have to check him carefully.” Joz couldn’t help but urge.
012 There is a certain probability of success or failure, it is not your fault (old version)
“Don’t worry, Marco is our ship’s doctor. Do I need you to remind me of this?” someone said.
“Yeah, I was too anxious.” Qiao Zi scratched his head honestly, then lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed to look at Di Xiu, feeling really guilty in his heart.
After a while, Marco put away the stethoscope and announced with a smile: “Dad has recovered very well. All the old illnesses and hidden injuries have healed. Dad is now…very healthy!!!”
Everyone was excited when they heard the announcement!
“That’s great! Dad is finally cured of his illness!”
“Hahahaha, Dad is blessed with a long life, and everything is fine!”
“Brother, what you said is not right. Dad is really lucky, thanks to Di Xiu. It was Di Xiu who cured Dad!”
“Yes, yes, look at my mouth. Brother Di Xiu, I apologize to you.” As he said that, the man respectfully apologized to Di Xiu. His funny appearance made everyone laugh.
Everyone looked at Di Xiu with eyes full of gratitude and admiration. They cheered and threw Di Xiu into the air again and again.
“Di Xiu!”
Whitebeard was also very happy. Seeing this scene, his eyes gradually became moist. All this was thanks to the young man Di Xiu…
After the joy, a question was put before everyone.
That is, there are two more enhanced devil fruits, who should they be given to?
Joz was the first to shake his head to express his attitude: “Forget it for me. I have thick skin and flesh, and I am also a user of the superhuman Shining Fruit. My body is as hard as diamond. I usually won’t get hurt, and even if I get hurt, I don’t need special treatment.”
“Hahaha!” Dishu was amused by Joz’s words. He didn’t expect that Joz had such a humorous side.
Vista also said that it was not necessary. “Dad, you know me well. My swordsmanship is all about moving forward courageously. If I eat this fruit because I am afraid of getting hurt, it will not only not help my swordsmanship, but may even cause my swordsmanship to regress.”
After hearing this, Whitebeard fell silent…
Then, Whitebeard turned his gaze to Ace and said, “Ace, eat these two fruits. Don’t refuse.”
Ace was stunned for a moment: “Me?”
“Yes, eat it.” Whitebeard looked at Ace seriously and said.
Whitebeard had personally experienced the power of the mythical beast Phoenix and knew how powerful it was. As long as he was not instantly crushed into powder, he could recover. Therefore, he hoped that Ace would eat this fruit so that his life would be more secure.
Seeing his father was so determined, Ace stopped refusing.
In front of everyone, he reached out and picked up the devil fruit on the test bench.
Then, without hesitation, he took a bite.
“……”
Still the same disgusting smell as always.
“Don’t spit it out! This is a devil fruit worth 10 billion berries each!” Someone couldn’t help but remind them.
Most of the people present were coveting this fruit, after all, it was a mythical beast species!
Mythical Beasts are even rarer than Natural Beasts, and the abilities they grant are extremely perverted.
Just look at dad, years of hidden injuries have been healed by the power of this fruit!
It can be said that as long as you have this ability, it will be difficult to die!
The captains of other squads looked at Ace with envy, but most of them said nothing.
Because they knew their own position clearly, and they were still far behind Ace.
This devil fruit should be tried first by the core members like them, but that doesn’t mean that others will have no chance in the future.
After all, Di Xiu has always been there!
As long as Di Xiu is still in the pirate group, they will be able to eat the devil fruit sooner or later!
It’s just a matter of time.
So, although everyone was envious, they did not feel jealous or resentful, and they all looked at Ace with expectation.
“How is it, Ace?” Marco asked hurriedly.
When he saw Ace was still after eating the devil fruit, he wondered, “Did it fail?”
“well.”
Ace’s sigh seemed to have explained the result.
He felt a little disappointed, looked at everyone and said, “Sorry, everyone, it didn’t work.”
Vista went up to him and comforted him: “What are you saying sorry for? Brother Dixiu said before that the enhanced devil fruit is different from the real devil fruit. There is a certain probability of success or failure. This is not your fault.”
Di Xiu also walked forward and patted Ace’s shoulder gently.
In fact, he was also curious about the success rate of this enhanced devil fruit, so he said, “Ace, failure is normal. Not everyone has the good luck like Dad. Try again.”
“Yeah, it’s just a waste of money and a drop of your blood.” Marco said nonchalantly, “Now that Dad has recovered to his peak condition, we can get back everything we lost before!”
Ace nodded, picked up the last enhanced devil fruit, and said, “Then I’ll try again.”
As he said this, he carefully put the devil fruit into his mouth.
The familiar disgusting taste instantly filled his entire mouth again, and the strong stimulation almost made Ace spit out the fruit.
Every time he ate a devil fruit, it was a torture for Ace, but this time he didn’t just take a small bite like usual.
He gritted his teeth and swallowed the whole devil fruit fiercely!
This scene shocked the people around. They couldn’t help but give a thumbs up and exclaimed: “Ace, that’s awesome!”
Fine beads of sweat appeared on Ace’s forehead, and his face was as white as paper, but his eyes were extremely firm.
He knew in his heart that only by doing this could he gain the power of the devil fruit.
Moreover, the enhanced devil fruit is different from the ordinary devil fruit. Maybe if you eat all of them, the probability of success will be higher…
Although obtaining this power requires great pain and risk, for Ace who is eager to become stronger, it is all worth it.
The people around looked at Ace’s resolute expression and couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration in their hearts.
They knew that not everyone had the courage to face the disgusting smell.
When Ace swallowed the devil fruit whole, everyone present held their breath nervously.
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Ace, feeling nervous and expectant.
They knew that this moment was crucial to Ace.
If Ace can successfully master the power of the fruit, he will be able to gain unprecedented powerful abilities!
But if it fails, it would be a pity. After all, that fruit is worth 2 billion Beli!
Therefore, everyone’s heart was in their throat, and they silently prayed in their hearts that a miracle would happen.
013 If you have no objection, just do as Di Xiu said (old version)
At the same time, Ace also clearly felt that huge changes were taking place in his body.
A strange and powerful force seemed to be awakening. At first, this force flowed gently through his whole body like a trickle.
Then, like a volcanic eruption, it became turbulent.
As time passed, Ace’s expression gradually changed from initial nervousness to surprise.
Because he found that not only did he not suffer any harm, but he also gained new abilities!
“Success!”
Suddenly, blazing blood-red flames ignited around Ace’s body. The flames looked extremely spectacular.
The strange thing is that they do not emit scorching heat, but instead make people feel a wonderful vitality and energy.
The blood-red flames burned wildly, as if to dye the entire sky red!
The flame contained endless power and mystery, and every beat seemed to be telling an ancient legend.
As time passed, the flames slowly condensed and deformed, and finally formed a lifelike blood-red immortal phoenix above Ace’s head!
This immortal phoenix is ​​covered in blazing, dazzling fire feathers, and every feather sparkles with the light of life.
Its eyes are like two bright rubies, revealing a deep and majestic look.
When it gently flapped its wings, invisible energy fluctuations seemed to be generated in the air, which made people shocked and awed.
Suddenly, a clear, pleasant, yet majestic cry sounded in the sky, and this sound penetrated deep into everyone’s heart.
Everyone at the scene was shocked, their eyes filled with shock and envy.
They once again witnessed the birth of a miracle – the second person with dual fruit abilities appeared in the pirate world!
What is even more surprising is that under the influence of this mysterious power, the weeds that had originally withered and died and had no vitality actually began to revive.
They slowly took root and sprouted, and grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“Hahaha, Dad, Brother Dixiu, I succeeded!” Ace laughed excitedly, feeling the power of the Phoenix Fruit and trying to control it.
“Gulala, our Whitebeard Pirates have a new dual-ability user!”
Whitebeard was very happy. Today was definitely a lucky day and a day worth remembering in history!
He was grateful to Di Xiu from the bottom of his heart. If it weren’t for Di Xiu, the Whitebeard Pirates would have gradually declined since the day Thatch died.
It was because of Di Xiu’s appearance that everything changed!
“Okay, Ace, put away your abilities first.” Whitebeard scolded with a smile, then looked at everyone with a serious expression, “Listen up, my sons, I have something to announce.”
When they heard that Whitebeard was going to announce something, the noisy crowd immediately quieted down and listened attentively.
They all knew Daddy very well, and knew that when he made that expression he must have something important to say, so no one dared to play around anymore and everyone listened attentively.
“From now on, Di Xiu is the vice-captain of our Whitebeard Pirates! If anyone has any objections, you can raise them now!”
This sentence was like a muffled thunder, exploding in everyone’s ears.
Dixie? Second Captain!
Everyone was a little bit unbelieving. Is this serious?
That would be so cool if true!
…
Any opinions? Only a fool would have opinions!
It couldn’t be better for them to have Di Xiu as the vice-captain!
In the future they have every reason to believe that they can also obtain enhanced devil fruits and become dual fruit ability users!
“Great, Vice Captain Deehew!”
“Vice Captain Di Xiu, when can you help us strengthen our Devil Fruits? I also want to become a Devil Fruit user!”
“Yes, yes!”
Di Xiu never expected that Whitebeard would make him the deputy captain. This was really a surprise.
He originally thought that he could stay in the Whitebeard Pirates, continue his experiments, and complete the system tasks.
I didn’t expect to become the vice captain…
Feeling everyone’s enthusiasm, Di Xiu felt warm inside.
But when faced with everyone’s questions, he couldn’t answer them directly because there were too many things involved.
He turned to look at Whitebeard, the meaning in his eyes was obvious.
Whitebeard smiled and took over the conversation: “Gulala, you little brats, just want to become dual fruit ability users.”
As soon as Whitebeard said this, the originally excited scene suddenly became quiet.
“I know that each of you wants to become a dual-fruit ability user, this is normal!”
“But with so many people, there has to be an order of priority. The captain of the squad takes priority, the outstanding crew members are ranked behind the captain, and the other crew members are ranked behind them.”
“Also, don’t be too anxious, everyone has the opportunity to become a dual-fruit ability user, or even a triple-fruit ability user!
But everyone, be careful not to tire out Vice Captain Di Xiu. If you tire him out, I won’t let you off easily! “
Whitebeard has set these rules for everyone temporarily. If there are no restrictions, these sons will definitely make trouble.
After saying that, he turned to look at Di Xiu, his tone softened a bit, and asked, “Di Xiu, do you have anything else to add? Just say it.”
Di Xiu thought about it, nodded, and said, “There are indeed a few points.”
“I fully understand everyone’s desire to become stronger, but there are a few things I need to make clear to everyone in advance.”
When everyone heard this, they all pricked up their ears and took it more seriously than ever before. After all, this was related to whether they could become stronger in the future!
Di Xiu paused for a moment, then continued, “First, strengthening devil fruits is not free, each one costs 1 billion Baileys!
Second, the success rate of each reinforcement is not 100%, so everyone should be mentally prepared for failure.
Third, every time you strengthen, it is best to prepare three strengthening devil fruits. According to my experience, if you take three in a row, the chance of success will be greatly increased. “
After saying these three points, Di Xiu nodded to White Beard, indicating that he had nothing else to say.
“Did you hear everything clearly? If you have no objection, do as Di Xiu said.” White Beard supported Di Xiu again.
Everyone nodded. Although strengthening the devil fruit requires a lot of money, it is not an unattainable goal for pirates like them who have been living on the edge of the sea for years.
There are so many pirate groups on the sea, just rob a few and the money will be enough!
If that’s not enough, then continue robbing!
014 I shouldn’t have let those pirates go when I first came to this island! (Old version)
Everyone became extremely excited at the thought of becoming a dual or even triple fruit user in the future, and clamored to have a party to celebrate!
Whitebeard was also very happy. Seeing everyone so interested, he simply agreed: “Sons, let’s have a good banquet today to celebrate Di Xiu becoming the vice-captain and to celebrate our Whitebeard Pirates!
This era belongs to our Whitebeard Pirates!
It is the era of Dishu! “
“Wuhu!!!”
“Di Xiu! Di Xiu! Di Xiu!”
Soon, a bonfire was lit on the island, and wisps of green smoke slowly rose up and drifted away gently with the wind.
The warm firelight illuminated the surroundings and also illuminated the smiles on everyone’s faces.
The celebratory banquet has officially begun!
Dishu became the protagonist of this banquet. He stood in the middle of the crowd, accepting the admiration and praise of his companions.
Everyone was very happy. They not only expressed their support and love for Di Xiu with words, but also tried various ways to please the most dazzling person of the night.
As time went on, the atmosphere on the scene became more and more heated.
The music sounded slowly, so melodious that people couldn’t help but sway to the rhythm.
Everyone was singing and dancing, and laughter was heard continuously. The whole island seemed to be enveloped in this joyful atmosphere.
What surprised Di Xiu even more was that several beautiful women in gorgeous clothes and exquisite makeup slowly walked into the center of the venue.
Some of them spun and jumped lightly, while others danced gracefully, adding a lot of excitement to the feast.
“No wonder the ancients loved to go to brothels to listen to music. Who wouldn’t be moved by this?”
While Di Xiu was enjoying the wine, one or two beautiful women who knew music came over and competed to pour wine for him.
The next morning.
Di Xiu slowly woke up from the warm bed, full of endless energy.
He secretly marveled in his heart: “Is this the benefit of automatic cultivation?”
Without any extra effort, you can reap the results every day that others would have to achieve after a whole day of practice.
He clenched his fists lightly, clearly feeling the power contained in the contraction and relaxation of muscles.
Then he threw a punch.
At this moment, he clearly realized that both the power and speed of his punches were far greater than before.
There is no doubt that he is becoming stronger at an alarming rate.
“This is too exaggerated.” Di Xiu felt that the speed at which he was getting stronger was beyond his imagination.
But after a little thought, he figured out the reason.
All this stems from his Earthling physique.
After all, the reference for his current strengthening is the people in the pirate world, and there is a huge gap between the two.
Therefore, it is normal to improve quickly in the early stage.
“It feels so good to be strong and healthy!”
Di Xiu stared at his hands excitedly, his eyes full of joy.
“Ah, Master Dishu, you woke up so early today~”
“Lord Dixiu, do you need us to help you wash up?”
At this time, Di Xiu came back to his senses. Seeing the sisters who had accompanied him to drink and spend a good night together last night, he smiled and said, “I don’t have anything to do today. I got up too hastily just now. I’ll sleep a little longer.”
at the same time.
In stark contrast to Di Xiu’s comfortable life, the Whitebeard Pirates are in a tense state of preparation for war. Many captains gathered together to discuss the next action plan.
“Gulala, boys, do you want to have the same powerful abilities as me? Then go get some money!”
Whitebeard picked up the big bowl of wine and drank it heartily. He gulped down several barrels of wine.
“It feels so good!!”
It had been a long time since he fell ill and hadn’t drunk so much. If it weren’t for Di Xiu, he would have almost forgotten the last time he drank so much.
“Dad’s ability?!!”
Everyone looked at each other, and saw the shock that was difficult to conceal in each other’s eyes.
What does this mean?
Is Dad planning to enhance his abilities for us as well? !
Instantly, there were gasps in the hall. Whitebeard was amused by the sound and scolded with a smile: “You little brats, if it weren’t for Di Xiu, I wouldn’t have known that Teach had been coveting my abilities.”
“Humph! He’s been planning this for so many years. I wonder what his expression would be if he saw that everyone in our Whitebeard Pirates has my ability? Gulala!”
“That boy Di Xiu is really cruel, Gulala!”
“I really regret that I shouldn’t have let those pirates go when I first came to this island!”
“That’s right. Those pirates can get hundreds of millions of berries from just one robbery!”
“It hurts! It hurts so much!”
“They shouldn’t have gone far, should we go after them now?”
“It would be better to attack the other four emperors. That way, you will definitely make money quickly!”
Marco immediately rejected the proposal: “Now is not a good time to confront the other four emperors.
First of all, although Dad has recovered from his serious injuries, he is not yet in his best condition. Our current strength is not enough to fight against enemies that are equally powerful or even stronger.
Secondly, if Di Xiu or Dad’s abilities are known too much to the outside world, it will bring great risks to our entire pirate group.
Once this information is leaked, it will not only attract the Navy’s high attention, but may also attract the covetousness and attacks of other forces.
Therefore, before you are absolutely sure, keeping a low profile and accumulating strength is the right choice.”
After listening to Marco’s analysis, the captains of the squads expressed their understanding and temporarily gave up the idea of ​​attacking the other four emperors.
But they were still very upset in their hearts, and didn’t understand why they were so soft-hearted and let those pirates go. That was hundreds of millions of Baileys, which could be exchanged for a lot of enhanced Devil Fruits!
Especially now that they heard that their father was going to share his abilities with them, they felt even more distressed.
The Tremor-Tremor Fruit is known to be the fruit with the strongest attack power.
Legend has it that when Dad was young and strong at the peak of his powers, he was able to shatter the entire ocean with the power of this fruit.
This is the most terrifying thing about the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
Now, they also have the opportunity to obtain this powerful ability, how can they not be excited?
“Make money!”
“We must get the money!”
“Set off!”
015 What’s the good news? Look at you all so happy (old version)
In this way, a massive money-making operation began in the Whitebeard Pirates. Everyone in the pirate group was full of energy, and they had only one common goal, which was to get money!
Five days later.
In some places on the Grand Route and in the New World, a major event occurred that caused a small sensation.
The Whitebeard Pirates launched a series of major actions during this period. They quickly and accurately eliminated several large-scale pirate groups and successfully robbed billions of Baileys.
Whitebeard, the pirate known as “the strongest man in the world”, his every move is closely watched by the pirate world.
The large-scale action he suddenly launched this time was like a blockbuster bomb, which caused a huge shock in the entire sea area, shocked countless people, and triggered all kinds of speculation.
However, no one knows the real purpose behind this big move. Is Whitebeard making a final struggle knowing that he has not much time left? Or does he want to intimidate the surrounding forces before he dies? Or is there a more complex and far-reaching plan behind it?
All of a sudden, all kinds of speculations and rumors arose. Some said that the Whitebeard Pirates were looking for the legendary treasure, some said they wanted to challenge the authority of the Navy Headquarters, and some even speculated that this was Whitebeard’s last effort to protect his family and friends.
No matter what the truth is, this big action triggered by Whitebeard has indeed shocked the whole world.
People are closely watching the Whitebeard Pirates’ every move, trying to find clues and solve the mystery.
However, just when everyone’s attention was focused on the Whitebeard Pirates, they suddenly disappeared in the vast ocean, as if they had never appeared. This made the already suspenseful situation even more mysterious.
On the Onigashima Island in Wano Country.
Kaido sat carelessly on his magnificent and majestic throne, his posture straight, like an indestructible mountain.
He held a simple wine gourd tightly in his hand and kept pouring wine into his mouth, as if the wine was free. As the wine continued to flow into his mouth, his eyes flashed with arrogance, and every sip of wine seemed to ignite his inner ambition.
At this time, a subordinate stood aside respectfully, carefully reporting the latest intelligence to him.
“What on earth does that old fellow Whitebeard want to do? He’s almost at the end of his life, why is he still messing around!”
Kaido’s words were full of disdain and contempt, as if he was mocking Whitebeard’s dying struggle.
“When you get old, you still want to drag a few people to be buried with you? Humph!”
He sneered, his words showing his disdain for Whitebeard and his absolute confidence in his own strength.
“Ignore him and keep drinking!”
On the Cake Island of Wan Guo.
BIGMOM sat comfortably in her seat, staring at the big cake in front of her with eyes full of desire. She loved this kind of sweet food to the extreme, even to the point of madness.
“Mom, there has been some new activity from the Whitebeard Pirates recently.”
The speaker was Perospero, the eldest son of BIGMOM, who had a lot of say among his many brothers and sisters.
“Hmm? The old man with white beard?”
BIGMOM reached out and grabbed the big cake in front of her, stuffing it into her mouth without hesitation. As soon as her big mouth opened, it was like a bottomless pit, and the cake quickly disappeared in her mouth. She swallowed the cake eagerly without chewing it, and then a satisfied look appeared on her face.
“Tell us about their recent situation.” BIGMOM said in a commanding tone with a hint of impatience in his voice.
Her eyes were sharp, as if she could see through everything. Her fingers tapped the table rhythmically, and the sound seemed to urge the other party to answer quickly.
The people around instantly felt an invisible pressure, and the air was filled with tension.
They exchanged glances, then lowered their heads, not daring to look directly into BIGMOM’s eyes.
Perospero also spoke carefully, slowly reporting the recent situation, fearing that he might say a wrong word.
“The Whitebeard Pirates have recaptured the territory they lost before, and also stole all the treasures of those pirates. From the looks of them, it seems that they are particularly short of money and in urgent need of it!”
“Moreover, no matter in the New World or the Grand Line, all the pirate groups that attacked their territories before were cleaned out by them, and all their money was taken away!”
“They didn’t even spare the pirates’ clothes, and even dug deep into the ground. All the valuables were taken away!”
Perospero was also very shocked while speaking. When did the Whitebeard Pirates become so greedy? !
“Mmmmmm~~” BIGMOM suddenly burst into laughter, and his laughter shook the entire palace. “What a funny old man. Ignore him. Just watch over Fishman Island and don’t let Whitebeard and his men take it back.”
“Okay, Mom.”
Perospero responded and kept these words firmly in mind. Fishman Island is a place that Mom values, and it must not be lost.
Although we don’t know why the Whitebeard Pirates suddenly acted like this, as long as they dare to invade, the BIGMOM Pirates will definitely let them know how powerful we are!
On Gaya Island, Ace was so excited that he shouted at Di Xiu to come over.
Dishu was very unhappy. He was having a great time playing poker, but this interruption ruined all his interest. It was so disappointing.
When Di Xiu walked into the hall, he was slightly stunned by the scene in front of him.
Wow, most of the squad captains have gathered here, each of them smiling so brightly, with the corners of their mouths almost stretching to their ears, and they can’t hide the joy on their faces at all.
This cheerful atmosphere spread throughout the entire space, as if it was filled with little factors of excitement everywhere. At a glance, you could tell that either something big and happy was about to happen, or it had already happened.
Di Xiu couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the good news? Look at you all so happy.”
Marco deliberately kept the secret and clapped his hands mysteriously.
As he clapped his hands, the air seemed to instantly be filled with an atmosphere of anticipation.
Immediately afterwards, several strong porters walked in from outside the door.
Each of them carried a huge box on their shoulders. The boxes looked very heavy. It went without saying that they must be filled with a lot of good things.
The movers followed the instructions and carefully placed the large boxes on the ground, one next to the other, in neat rows.
After they were all laid out and counted, there were actually more than a hundred!
016 You guys can go wherever you want, just don’t disturb me while I’m drinking (old version)
Di Xiu was startled, and suddenly guessed something. He stammered, “Marco, these can’t be… can’t all be…”
Marco laughed and took over the conversation: “Hahaha, you guessed it right, our beloved Vice Captain Di Xiu!”
After all the boxes were put away, Marco waved his hand again, signaling that they could begin.
Following an order, all the boxes were opened almost at the same time, the lids were slowly opened, and the contents were revealed.
Wow, this is amazing. The whole space instantly becomes full of jewels and gems.
It was filled with gold, diamonds, gems, and all kinds of precious jade. Under the light, it sparkled so brightly that it was hard to take in the sight.
There was a huge storm in Dishu’s heart. He stood there with his mouth open, staring at the scene in front of him, completely stunned.
It was the first time in his life that he had seen so many treasures piled together, and each piece exuded an irresistible charm.
Utensils made of gold, weapons inlaid with precious gems, and all kinds of exquisite works of art… If they were placed on Earth in the previous life, the value of these things could not be measured in numbers.
“Oh my God…” Di Xiu couldn’t help but sigh in a low voice, “All these things added together are probably worth at least tens of billions of Baileys!”
His voice was full of shock and disbelief.
Who wouldn’t be shocked by such a huge fortune? Moreover, it was the first time for Di Xiu to experience such a scene.
“Hahaha, Vice Captain Dixiu is right, these things are worth about 30 billion Baileys!” Vista was also very excited, his eyes full of longing, “We plan to get all the squad captains together to strengthen Dad’s abilities!”
“All the team captains?” Di Xiu was a little confused.
“That’s right!” everyone answered in unison.
Di Xiu frowned slightly and analyzed: “Even if these treasures are worth 30 billion berries, and one enhanced devil fruit costs 1 billion berries, then only 30 can be made.”
Everyone else pricked up their ears and listened carefully, afraid of missing a single word.
Di Xiu continued, “There is still a chance of failure in strengthening. If we take into account the situation where three are needed to successfully strengthen one, then we can only strengthen ten people…”
Di Xiu couldn’t help but sigh that in front of this money-burning system, 30 billion Baileys were nothing compared to this, not even a drizzle.
“Deputy Captain, don’t be so pessimistic.” Vista encouraged hurriedly, “Not everyone has such bad luck. Maybe we only need twenty enhanced devil fruits to succeed.” As he said this, he looked eager to try.
Qiao Zi also stood up and said with a firm look in his eyes: “Dad has successfully strengthened himself once, I believe our luck is not that bad!”
“Yes, deputy captain, thank you for your hard work! Just start making it!”
“We believe in our luck!”
“Deputy Captain, please!”
Everyone looked at Di Xiu with anticipation, and Di Xiu also hoped that they could succeed in strengthening their abilities.
After all, as long as eight more people succeed in strengthening, his mission will be accomplished!
By then, we will be able to unlock the next new technology!
“Okay! If it’s as short as half a month, or as long as a month, I will work overtime and I will get it done! Just wait for my good news!”
Di Xiu looked at the excited crowd and issued a military order.
“Also, if any of you want to strengthen other abilities, you can collect each other’s blood during this period! For one fruit, only one drop of blood is enough!”
After saying that, Di Xiu turned around and left without any hesitation.
He was very anxious and couldn’t wait to know what the next technology the system would give!
During this period, Gaya Island has been quiet.
Everyone has heard that the Four Emperors Pirate Group is stationed here, so who would dare to come here? That’s why this place has always been very quiet.
The squad captains usually don’t have much to do, so they often get together to chat and fantasize about becoming users of the third, fourth, or even fifth fruit abilities in the future. That would definitely be super cool!
At this moment, a pirate suddenly ran in in a panic.
“Oh no! General Qing Zhi is here!”
Marco was the first to stand up. He frowned and asked, “What? Qingzhi is here? How many people did he bring?”
“I didn’t bring many people with me, just… just one person.”
“Huh?” This time it was Marco’s turn to be surprised. Only one person came? Alone?
“Dad, Qingzhi came alone. He doesn’t look like he was sent by the navy. Maybe he was just passing by.”
Whitebeard put down the big wine bowl in his hand, and his eyes suddenly became cold.
“What is Qing Zhi doing here? Doesn’t he know that this is the territory of our Whitebeard Pirates?”
Ace also frowned, but soon his eyes lit up.
“Dad, Qingzhi came just in time!”
“What do you mean? Do you want to…” Whitebeard immediately understood Ace’s thoughts, and the others also reacted, their eyes lit up instantly, as if they had seen some treasure.
Ace said anxiously: “Dad, let me go meet this general. I haven’t fought with a general for a long time.”
“No, no, I want to go too.” Joz stood up immediately. He knew very well that Dixiu needed the blood of a power user to make the enhanced fruit. Qingzhi was a natural power user. Who wouldn’t be tempted by the general’s natural fruit? !
“Hahaha, my Flower Sword can’t wait for a big battle!” Flower Sword Bista put his hands on the two swords at his waist and swept his eyes over everyone. He had to go to this battle!
“Gulala, you little brats.” Whitebeard picked up the big wine bowl again. With these sons around, it was not his turn to fight. He just continued drinking. “Go wherever you want. Just don’t disturb me while I’m drinking.”
After hearing what Whitebeard said, a group of squad captains could no longer hold back. They rushed out the door as if they had rockets tied to their feet, aiming directly at Qingzhi!
Marco looked at this group of energetic friends, smiled and shook his head, and said to his father: “Dad, I’m here to drink with you.”
“You’re not going?” Whitebeard drank the wine in the big bowl and looked at Marco.
“Qing Zhi’s ability is great, but I don’t want it.”
“Although Qingzhi’s ability is powerful, I don’t want it.” Marco said again, then filled his father’s glass with wine, and then said: “If I have to choose a natural fruit, I want Akainu’s magma fruit.”
“Oh? Why?” White Beard suddenly became interested.
017 Fire Fist Ace, this battle is finally worth watching (old version)
“There are many types of nature-type attacks. When the magma fruit attacks, it is a physical attack, which can maximize the attack power!”
“Compared to Qingzhi’s ice fruit, it’s still stronger.”
“Then why didn’t you choose Kizaru’s Pika Pika no Mi?” Whitebeard asked Marco, “The Pika Pika no Mi is so fast that the attack can arrive in the blink of an eye.”
“Dad, Kizaru’s ability is of little use to us.” Marco raised his hand, and a ball of blue flame burned. “Dad, look, my Phoenix’s Regeneration Flame, Kizaru’s ability can’t do anything to us, so it’s useless to take it.”
“Gulala, you are teasing your dad, drink!”
“Okay, okay, I accept the punishment. I’ll drink it right away!”
At the port, Qing Zhi looked at the huge group of people in front of him and felt puzzled.
These people all had green eyes, and the way they looked at him was as if a group of lecherous guys saw a peerless beauty.
He just came to ask a question, is it necessary for the entire pirate group to come out to “welcome” him?
“Ah~ It’s really lively.” Qing Zhi stretched lazily, “Since we are here, let’s take a look. Captains of the Whitebeard Pirates, what appeared here yesterday? What’s with those three golden lights?”
Ace frowned. So this is why he came. He thought the other party was just passing by.
“Qingzhi, as a general, your brain is not working well, right? Do you think we will answer you?”
“Hahaha, this general doesn’t look very smart!”
“Who says that generals must be smart? Brother, your idea is a bit dangerous.”
Sarcastic remarks kept coming out, Qing Zhi felt bored and reached out to scratch his ears.
“You are a bunch of little minions hanging around on the sea. You are so noisy. Let me calm you down.”
Having said that, Qing Zhi launched the attack without hesitation.
His body began to change, and his original flesh and blood quickly turned into hard and cold ice.
The change process was fast and shocking, as if the entire space was controlled by a powerful force.
As Qingzhi’s movements became faster and faster, his speed reached an unprecedented level.
Wherever he went, no matter whether it was the vibrant flowers and trees, or the free-flying birds, beasts, insects and fish, as long as they came into contact with this extreme cold force, they would instantly lose signs of life and be frozen in place, turning into lifelike ice sculptures.
These sculptures formed by natural elements sparkle in the sunlight, but behind them lies a frightening beauty where beauty and cruelty coexist.
“Get out of the way!”
Ace and the others quickly retreated to avoid Qingzhi’s cold attack.
But many ordinary pirates were still hit by the cold air and turned into ice sculptures!
“IceBall!”
Qing Zhi slowly raised his palm, and the moisture in the air quickly condensed into five sharp and transparent icicles as if summoned by some mysterious force.
Under his control, these icicles shot like arrows towards the enemies who had not yet reacted.
Only a few “whoosh” sounds were heard, and several people were hit accurately in an instant. A thin layer of frost immediately covered the surface of their bodies, and the frost was still spreading.
Immediately afterwards, an even more powerful freezing energy burst out from Qing Zhi’s palm, wrapping these unlucky guys in a huge, crystal clear ice ball.
Not only does this ice ball look spectacular, the temperature inside is also extremely low. People trapped inside cannot move at all and can only watch themselves slowly lose consciousness from the soles of their feet until their whole body becomes stiff.
During the entire process, except for a few subtle sounds of struggle occasionally, the surroundings were eerily quiet. Only Qing Zhi’s calm and determined eyes revealed his absolute confidence in the outcome of this battle.
“Mirror Fire Flame!”
Ace shouted angrily, and a large flame erupted from his right arm like a volcanic eruption, with scorching temperature and dazzling light, drawing gorgeous arcs in the air.
These flames quickly gathered together and built a huge and solid wall of fire in front of the companions.
This wall of fire not only blocked Qing Zhi’s icy attack, but also emitted bursts of warmth, bringing a sense of comfort and courage to the teammates behind him.
“Damn it! He actually launched a sneak attack!”
Ace used his other hand to release warm flames to melt the frozen crew members. He felt extremely regretful, blaming himself for being too careless. He wished he could have taken action earlier.
On the other side of the battlefield.
Faced with this sudden change, Qing Zhi’s eyes remained calm and indifferent, as if he had already expected the other party to do such a thing.
His expression did not fluctuate at all, he just said calmly: “Captain of the Second Division, Fire Fist Ace, this battle is finally worth watching.”
Qing Zhi concentrated his energy slightly, exerting his control over the ice element to the extreme. With a slight wave of his hand, crystal clear ice balls emitting cold air flew from all directions towards the barrier made of pure fire.
Seeing this, Ace sneered: “Hmph! This is all you can do, and this is how a general attacks?” After that, he pushed his right hand forward fiercely, and a wall of fire rushed towards Qingzhi, as if to completely submerge him in the sea of ​​fire.
Qing Zhi just watched quietly without saying anything.
When the ice ball came into contact with the blazing fire wall, it encountered strong resistance. The surface of the ice ball first began to melt due to the high temperature, and then the entire structure became increasingly fragile.
After just a few seconds, the ice ball completely disintegrated, turning into pools of clear, transparent but powerless ice water, which dripped weakly onto the ground, making a slight sound.
At this moment, everyone truly felt the shock brought about by the violent collision of these two completely different forces.
Qing Zhi gathered the cold air in his right arm and cast a “Frozen Time Capsule”, and a lifelike ice bird flew out.
The impact force of this ice bird is extremely strong. Wherever it goes, the air is instantly frozen and a thick layer of frost quickly forms on the ground.
Under the cover of cold air, everything around seemed to be frozen in time, and the tiny particles in the air were clearly visible.
Just as everyone was stunned by this sudden change, Qingzhi’s body quietly disappeared.
At this moment, flames burst out from Ace’s whole body, trying to use the blazing flames to resist the approaching cold air.
However, although these flames were extremely hot, they seemed so small in the face of the endless cold.
018 A captain of the Whitebeard Pirates actually has such a strong power (old version)
Suddenly, a large amount of cold air condensed behind Ace, forming a huge ice sculpture. Before he knew it, Ace’s legs were frozen by the cold air and he couldn’t move.
A young and childish voice came: “If you fight with others, you must be prepared to die.”
Then, Qing Zhi slowly walked out of the ice sculpture, with a crystal clear, sparkling ice knife in his hand.
He said coldly: “Repent in the cold.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung the ice knife violently and stabbed the defenseless Ace fiercely.
The attack was so fast and sudden that Ace had no time to react.
As the ice knife pierced into him, Qing Zhi’s eyes gradually became cold, with a hint of disappointment on his face. He thought that the captain of the second squad was too weak and could not withstand such an attack.
Qing Zhi turned his back to Ace who was “hit” by the ice knife, looked at the others in front of him with sharp eyes, and exhaled cold air: “Now, does anyone want to tell me what those three golden lights are?”
There was silence at the scene and no one spoke.
Everyone looked at Qing Zhi with strange eyes, as if they were looking at a fool.
Someone whispered, “Are all the generals so confident nowadays?”
Someone else shouted, “Hey, Qingzhi, aren’t you happy too early?”
“Hahaha, it turns out the general isn’t that scary. He can’t even hurt the second captain’s hair!”
Hearing these sarcastic words, Qing Zhi had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that the knife just now did not hurt Ace?
Just as he was about to turn around to confirm, Ace’s voice came from behind him: “Ah, it’s really scary, Qingzhi, this ice blade is really cold.”
Qing Zhi turned his head and saw a blood-red flame burning at the place where Ace was stabbed by the ice knife.
Moreover, the body pierced by the ice knife is healing quickly.
This flame doesn’t look like the ability of the Flame-Flame Fruit, but more like…
Qing Zhi frowned, his heart full of doubts: “Your body…this flame is not the ability of your Flame-Flame Fruit?”
His mind was a little confused for a moment and he had no idea what was going on.
This flame has healing powers, a bit like the healing powers of Marco’s Phoenix form, how strange!
After a while, Ace touched the place where the ice knife had pierced. It had now recovered and the skin was as smooth as that of a newborn baby.
Ace laughed in surprise: “Hahaha, the Phoenix form is really magical. It can heal such a serious injury!”
Others gathered around, looking at Ace excitedly, touching him and marveling at him.
“Ace, he’s really fully recovered!”
“Hahaha, Vice Captain Di Xiu is so awesome!”
“There’s not even a single scar left. It’s indeed Brother Xiao Ma’s Phoenix form!”
Qing Zhi’s brows were furrowed. As he listened to the conversation between these people, his heart became heavier. The situation looked very bad.
He couldn’t help but ask, “Ace, what’s wrong with your phoenix form?”
Ace responded: “Why, as an admiral of the navy, you don’t even know about the user of the twin fruit ability?”
“What…what! Double Fruit?!” Qing Zhi was shocked. People with double fruit ability are extremely rare in the history of the Navy.
Ace’s eyes flashed with a determined fighting spirit. He clenched his fists and unleashed all the power of the Flame-Flame Fruit in his body.
The flames surged like boiling magma, condensing in his hands to form a large flame ring that contained great power and will.
“Great Flame Ring·Flame Emperor·Bloody Fire Phoenix!” Ace roared, and a huge spiral of flames was released.
These flames swirled and intertwined in the air, eventually converging into a huge fireball brighter than the sun.
This fireball, composed of countless small hot flames, is so dazzling that it seems to be able to illuminate the entire sky.
Just when everyone thought that this was all Ace’s attack was, an even more shocking scene appeared. Above the dazzling fireball, an immortal phoenix suddenly appeared, its entire body covered in blood-red light.
This legendary beast spread its huge wings, and every time it flapped it brought up bursts of blood-red flames, as if it was going to burn all the clouds in the sky, dyeing the entire world red.
The eyes of the immortal phoenix are full of indomitable will and the will to be reborn. It stands on the blazing fireball, as if standing in an endless sea of ​​fire, reborn from the ashes.
Ace shouted, “Qingzhi! This is my strongest move, show me your true strength!”
The fire phoenix let out a sharp cry and swooped down suddenly, so fast that it seemed to have traveled through space. Its claws tightly grasped the fireball that was brighter than the sun.
The fireball was blindingly bright and its temperature was high enough to melt steel. The flames jumped between the phoenix’s claws, making a deafening roar, as if even the air was being torn apart.
With a cry, the blood-red phoenix threw the fireball towards Qing Zhi. The fireball streaked across the sky, leaving behind a brilliant trail. Wherever it passed, the water molecules in the air evaporated quickly, forming a white mist.
The ground was baked red, the rocks began to melt, and everything seemed unreal like a dream.
Qing Zhi stood there, his eyes narrowed, he felt the huge threat brought by the fireball. He knew that if he was hit by this fireball, even he would find it difficult to bear it.
“A captain of the Whitebeard Pirates actually has such powerful strength…” An unprecedented sense of crisis surged in his heart. He pursed his lips, and cold air instantly spread throughout his body, and the water molecules around him quickly froze.
“Ice Age!” Qing Zhi shouted softly, and the cold air in his body instantly burst out, sweeping around like a strong wind in a cold winter.
The cold was so strong that it seemed to freeze time, and the air around it solidified.
With Qingzhi as the center, an invisible force spread out, and wherever it went, everything was covered with thick frost.
Trees, rocks, and even tiny particles in the air were attacked by this sudden cold wave and instantly lost their original color and temperature.
As Qing Zhi’s mind moved, the extremely cooled air condensed into a spectacular long column of ice, rushing from the ground to the sky.
The surface of the long ice column is as smooth as a mirror, but its interior contains powerful destructive power.
When the long column of ice met the huge fireball flying towards it, the two reacted violently. Ice and fire, two of the most basic and opposing forces in nature, collided and released unprecedented energy.
“Bang!” With a loud noise, the whole space seemed to be shaking.
When two substances with completely different properties come into contact, they begin to cancel each other out.
On the one hand, the high temperature caused part of the ice to quickly melt into water; on the other hand, the intense cold caused the flame to gradually weaken until it went out.
019 It was not easy for us to successfully launch a sneak attack and seriously injure Qing Zhi this time (old version)
During this process, a large amount of white steam rose up, shrouding the battlefield in a haze.
The two sides seem to be evenly matched, but in fact they are consuming each other’s energy every second.
Someone exclaimed: “Ace is too strong, he actually pushed Admiral Qingzhi to this point!”
“Haha, the dual fruit ability user is really amazing. I’m really looking forward to dad’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit.”
“Actually, Qing Zhi’s ability is not bad. If he can possess both the Ice Fruit and the Flame-Flame Fruit, he might be able to develop the ability of the Steam Fruit.”
“Don’t think so much, Master Di Xiu can just strengthen you directly!”
“Hahaha, sorry, I’m so stupid.”
Joz and the other squad captains had playful smiles on their faces, but they did not stop walking. As they talked, they moved closer to the area where the two men were fighting.
They came closer.
Flower Sword Vista looked at his companions, a sly smile appeared on his face, and then he suddenly launched an attack!
“Rose Rondo!”
“Shining Crash!”
Joz’s arms sparkled in the sunlight, as if they were made of countless brilliant diamonds, with muscles bulging high and full of explosive power. Every time he swung his arms, he could bring up a whistling gale!
Vista had already leaped into the air, the sunlight shining on him, making him look exceptionally dazzling!
He held the sword in both hands and danced at the same time. The two swords were like two nimble silver snakes, flying quickly in the air.
As he moved, red rose petals fell from the tip of the sword. These petals were not ordinary flowers, each of them contained a powerful sword energy, not to mention ordinary steel, even harder things could be easily cut off.
The petals fluttered in the air, gradually forming a gorgeous sea of ​​red flowers.
They are intertwined and densely packed like a huge net, covering the entire battlefield!
“hateful!”
Qing Zhi’s brows were tightly furrowed, and his face was full of shock and anger.
He never expected that at such a critical moment, Joz and Vista would suddenly launch a sneak attack on him!
Pirates are pirates after all, and they will use any means to achieve their goals.
Although I am filled with anger at this act of betrayal, what is more important now is how to deal with the crisis at hand.
He tried to mobilize the strength in his body to fight back or defend himself, however, it was too late!
Qiao Zi’s diamond-hard right arm slammed into Qing Zhi’s chest with astonishing speed and strength. This blow made Qing Zhi feel a sharp pain, and his body stepped back several steps uncontrollably.
Just as he was trying hard to steady his body, Vista quickly followed, and the sharp sword in his hand cut a long wound on Qingzhi’s unprotected back.
Then, Ace also joined the attack. His fist was wrapped in a powerful flame force, like a cannonball, and hit Qingzhi’s chest directly. Qingzhi, who was already seriously injured, was injured even more seriously and lost his ability to fight instantly.
With this series of fierce and precise attacks, Qing Zhi finally couldn’t hold on and spat out a mouthful of blood!
Blood continued to flow out from the corners of his mouth and his body fell limply to the ground.
Qing Zhi originally thought that these pirates would take advantage of his injury to kill him, but what happened next surprised him.
The pirates did not rush towards him as he had imagined, but instead ran towards the blood he spat out, frantically collecting it.
They carefully put the blood into bottles, as if they were treating some priceless treasure.
“Hahaha, this is mine!”
“It’s mine. All of it is mine! The power of the Ice Fruit!”
“Leave one for Ace, Brother Joz and the others as well. No one else can grab it!”
Qing Zhi looked at the scene in front of him, his heart full of doubts. He really couldn’t understand why these pirates were so interested in his blood that they even risked their lives to snatch it.
Is there some unknown secret or great value hidden in his blood?
But there is no time to think about these things now.
Although we didn’t find out the news about the three golden lights, we got more important information!
A person with dual fruit abilities appears in the Whitebeard Pirates!
“Ara, this is truly an unforgettable experience, Captain of the Second Division Ace, I will remember you.”
Qing Zhi stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at everyone lazily.
“We have other things to do today, let’s fight next time!”
“Moon Step!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he took a sudden step forward, and his foot seemed to penetrate the air, leaving a faint shadow in the void.
Then, he kept stomping on the air, and with each stomp, his speed became faster.
His speed was so fast that it seemed to tear the air apart, and a whistling sound of wind filled my ears.
Everyone only saw Qing Zhi’s figure becoming more and more blurred, like a flash of lightning across the sky, and disappeared from their sight in the blink of an eye.
Only the sound of the wind gradually dissipated and the gazes of the crowd that were filled with gratitude and some reluctance were left.
“Ace, I think we can capture Qingzhi!” Joz rubbed his hands together, obviously he wanted to increase his bounty by capturing Qingzhi.
Bista looked particularly excited. He carefully took out an exquisite glass bottle from his arms.
He moved very carefully, afraid to waste a drop of liquid.
Then, he began to carefully collect blood from the weapon. Every drop of blood was extremely important to him and he could not afford to make any mistakes.
“Brother Qiao, it was not easy for us to successfully launch a sneak attack and seriously injure Qing Zhi this time.”
Bista shook his head as he spoke, and gently put the vial filled with blood into his underwear pocket, patting it with his hand to ensure that the bottle would not fall out.
“But if we want to keep a navy admiral forever…”
Having said that, Bista paused, his eyes became deep, and he seemed to be thinking about a very important issue.
“I’m afraid we’ll have to pay a huge price on our side.” He added slowly, his voice full of helplessness and heaviness.
For them, although they have achieved a temporary victory this time, facing such a powerful enemy, it is not an easy task to gain the final victory, and they may even have to sacrifice the lives of several companions.
“Is it that exaggerated?” Joz’s eyes widened.
“Of course, but don’t underestimate any general.”
020 Go back to the deputy captain and see if he can help me get one too! (Old version)
Ace also nodded and agreed, “The admiral is worthy of being the admiral, ahem…” His face suddenly turned pale and his body swayed a few times, but he still stabilized. He smiled and said with emotion, “The recovery ability of the Phoenix form is really amazing. I have almost recovered from those moves that consumed a lot of physical strength just now.”
“The user of the dual fruit ability is too amazing!”
“Let’s go, let’s go back to the deputy captain and see if he can help me get one too!”
“I want Daddy’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit!”
“I want it too!”
Naval headquarters.
When Aokiji came back, he did not attract the attention of others. After all, if a general came back injured after a mission and caused too much noise, it would bring a lot of trouble.
In the Marshal’s office.
Sengoku, Garp, Vice Admiral Tsuru, and the injured Aokiji were all in the conference room. At this moment, they all had gloomy faces and sat in their respective seats. No one spoke. The whole room was filled with a depressing atmosphere. It was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard, just like the calm before the storm.
After a long while, Zhan Guo stood up from his chair and broke the silence. His voice was low but powerful: “Aokiji, are you sure you didn’t see it wrong?”
Aokiji raised his head, looked lazily at Sengoku, and replied, “Ah~ I’m sure.”
Hearing Aokiji’s affirmative answer, Sengoku scratched his head with a headache.
He knew what this meant. If what Aokiji said was true, then the entire Navy Headquarters would face a huge threat. This threat was not only related to their own safety, but it might even cause the order of the entire maritime world to fall into chaos!
“This situation is a bit troublesome now, Karp, don’t you have anything to say?”
Garp stuffed all the senbei in his hand into his mouth and took several big bites before swallowing it.
“What? What can I say? Ace has always had his own ideas since he was young. I wasn’t there when he went out to sea, and then he got the Flame-Flame Fruit and joined the Whitebeard Pirates. You all know what happened after that. And the mythical beast Phoenix form, I have no idea what it’s all about, just like you guys.”
Garp had a happy smile on his face, an expression of being indifferent and just watching the fun, but he was very pleased in his heart. Ace could actually fight with the admiral now, which was really great.
Aokiji looked at his former master in this state and shook his head helplessly. Ace did bring him quite a surprise.
“Hmph! Garp, this situation is all your fault!” Looking at Garp’s asking-for-a-beating look, Sengoku wished he could punch him a few times.
“A dual-fruit ability user. I never thought that the Whitebeard Pirates would have a dual-fruit ability user!”
Vice Admiral Tsuru’s expression became very serious, “The situation is very serious.”
Then she began to analyze.
“First, the Whitebeard Pirates behaved strangely and chose a small island as their base, where they stayed for several months.
Then three strange golden lights appeared, very mysterious. Maybe they already knew what was there.
In the end, Ace became a dual-fruit ability user.
Only a fool would believe that there is no connection between these events.”
Zhan Guo nodded in agreement. He raised his head, looked out the window, and said calmly: “Ace’s change must be related to the golden light that appeared before. Do you think it is possible that some kind of scientific research has given Ace the ability of the dual fruit?”
Sengoku’s guess reminded Aokiji of something. He interrupted everyone’s conversation and added, “Wait, when I was fighting them, they were particularly interested in my blood. They wanted to get my blood even at the risk of getting hurt, and they kept shouting that they wanted to become a double or even triple fruit ability user.”
When Aokiji said this, everyone was shocked.
Sengoku stood up from his chair at once, slammed the table hard, and said with certainty: “It must be like this, I am now sure that the Whitebeard Pirates have a way to make people become dual-fruit or triple-fruit ability users!”
Vice Admiral He frowned, “If this is the case, the situation is too serious. We must find a solution immediately, otherwise the entire ocean will be plunged into great turmoil.”
“It should be that some talents like scientists have appeared on their side. This has never happened in the Whitebeard Pirates before.” Garp also put away his playful expression and became serious. This situation is indeed not to be underestimated.
“etc!”
He’s face suddenly turned ugly, and a terrible idea lingered in her mind.
“Do you think it’s possible that Whitebeard has also become a dual-fruit or even triple-fruit ability user?”
“What?!”
“…It is indeed possible.”
For a moment, the whole office fell silent. The atmosphere was extremely tense and so quiet that it was frightening.
Whitebeard already has the strength of a Four Emperor. What if he gains another Devil Fruit power?
“I think it’s unlikely. You know, using the power of a devil fruit is very physically demanding, and using the power of two devil fruits consumes even more energy.
With Whitebeard’s current physical condition, there is no way he can use the dual fruit abilities.”
“Don’t forget Ace’s Phoenix form. His fruit is not only of the animal type, but also of the mythical beast type!
Whether it’s recovery ability or healing ability, it’s top-notch!”
As He analyzed the situation, he realized that the actual situation might be much more serious than they expected.
Aokiji had a severe headache and rubbed his brow with his hand. “Oh, if that’s the case, this sea will be very lively.”
Sengoku adjusted his glasses and said, “Marco’s Phoenix form has very strong healing and recovery abilities.
Judging from Ace’s situation, Whitebeard has definitely acquired this ability.
Maybe his physical condition has improved greatly now, and it is even possible that he has returned to his peak state…”
“Old Sengoku, don’t be so pessimistic. These are just our guesses. Maybe Whitebeard doesn’t want to bother with it anymore and is still as sickly as before. No one can tell.”
Karp smiled and comforted him, but even he didn’t quite believe it.
“What’s going on? We need to send someone to check it out.”
As he said that, he turned around, picked up the Den Den Mushi on the table, and dialed the number.
Not long after, there were sounds of dragging footsteps outside the door, accompanied by someone’s whispered complaints.
021 Dad, although you have recovered, you still need to take a rest (old version)
Then, the door was pushed open with a creaky sound.
“Hey, hey, hey, Mr. Zhan Guo, I’m on legal leave now. You have to give me compensation for interrupting my vacation like this.”
Kizaru sat on the chair and complained with a dissatisfied look on his face, then he found that the room was full of people.
“Mr. Garp, Vice Admiral Tsuru, and Aokiji?”
Only then did he realize that something special might have happened.
“What’s going on? Why is everyone gathered here?”
At this moment, he noticed the blood at the corner of Aokiji’s mouth and his eyes narrowed slightly.
“Aokiji, are you hurt?”
“Well, Borsalino, something has happened.”
Sengoku interrupted Kizaru’s speculation and directly told him the situation just discussed, emphasizing the seriousness of the matter.
As for the subsidy, they only vaguely said that there would be one, but there was no definite information on when it would be given.
Kizaru is not in a hurry, as he still has a few years before retirement.
“It’s really scary. All these newcomers on the sea have become dual-fruit users.”
Then he looked at Zhan Guo thoughtfully.
“The marshal wants me to gather intelligence and investigate this matter thoroughly.”
Zhan Guo glanced at him. Isn’t this asking even though he already knows the answer? Unconsciously, he glanced at Aokiji again, and Kizaru also looked at Aokiji.
“Oh my, I’m already injured like this, why are you still looking at me? Cough cough… cough cough cough!”
Okay, I’ll go!
Yellow Monkey looked very bitter and in a very bad mood. He was on vacation, but was inexplicably called to work overtime. He didn’t even know when he would get the overtime pay. He was so unlucky!
It’s all because of those damn pirates. This time, I must get revenge on them!
Moreover, these pirates are so strange. They actually figured out something that even Vegapunk hadn’t thoroughly researched, and they also successfully implemented it.
The effect was so obvious that even Aokiji was injured.
On Gaya Island,
A group of squad leaders were so excited that their mouths were almost grinning from ear to ear. They linked their arms and returned to their base, cheering.
Whitebeard was wielding a sword in the yard. He used the Kusunome cutter to perfection. His movements were smooth and powerful, and every swing seemed to carry the force of wind and thunder.
Under the sunlight, his tall figure looked particularly majestic. The broadsword in his hand was like a nimble dragon, sometimes circling and dancing, sometimes slashing down fiercely, each move was full of power and beauty.
“call!”
As the last blade fell, Whitebeard stood still. After completing his swordplay, his face was calm and his breathing was steady, not at all hasty due to the intense exercise just now.
On the contrary, his eyes were shining with excitement, and he was obviously very satisfied with his performance.
He looked at the big knife in his hand, and a strong sense of satisfaction surged in his heart. This knife was not just his weapon, but more like his friend and partner.
It was very quiet all around, with only the occasional bird song breaking the silence.
Whitebeard stood there, quietly feeling the power surging in his body, as if the whole world had stopped at this moment.
After a while, he clenched the sword tightly in his hand again, and it seemed that he wanted to have another round.
This scene happened to be seen by Ace and others who had just returned. They hurried forward and said with a worried look on their faces:
“Dad, even though you have recovered, you still need to rest.”
Joz also came over with a smile, “Dad, we all know you’re still very skilled, but you really should listen to Ace and get some rest.”
“Gulala, little devils, when will it be your turn to take care of me?”
Whitebeard suddenly inserted the Kusunokiri into the ground, and a big hole appeared on the ground instantly, and cracks spread out in all directions like a spider web.
The knife seemed to contain infinite power, tearing the earth into countless small pieces. The surrounding air also rippled due to the huge vibration, as if time had stopped at this moment.
“I know my own body well, so don’t worry.”
Then, he asked why everyone was so happy, “Why, judging from your expressions, Aokiji didn’t get the upper hand in the fight with you, did he?”
When this was mentioned, everyone became even more excited and started talking about their glorious achievements just now.
Everyone was talking at once, and after a long while, White Beard finally understood what was going on.
“Gulala, well done, little devils!”
“But when Aokiji returns to the naval base, those old guys like Sengoku and Garp will definitely not let us go easily.”
“This sea is bound to stir up waves.”
Although Whitebeard said this, his expression showed that he didn’t care at all. The same went for the others, who didn’t look worried at all.
With Di Xiu here, who would be afraid of the navy? It should be the navy that is afraid of them!
“Dad, let’s give this blood to Di Xiu first.”
“Yes, yes, fresh blood is better. By the way, let’s take a look at the research results of Vice Captain Di Xiu.”
“The Ice Fruit is the ability of the admiral of the Navy Headquarters. I never thought we would have the chance to possess it!”
“Hey, I can’t wait any longer, I’ll go first!”
Seeing that everyone was in such high spirits, White Beard also became interested and decided to go see Di Xiu with his sons.
“Gulala, I’m so happy today. Dad, I’m going to go see Dixiu too.”
The group soon arrived at Dixiu’s experimental base. Seeing the busy people in the base, they felt that the deputy captain’s job was not easy.
They went out to eat, drink and have fun every day, while Di Xiu had to be busy in the laboratory from morning to night.
Thinking of this, everyone felt a little guilty.
“Mr. Captain is so selfless!”
“In order to make us stronger, he works day and night. It’s so touching. Woohoo…”
“Di Xiu is so good to us, how can we repay him in the future!”
A group of people stood at the door, so moved that they beat their chests and stamped their feet, hugged each other to comfort each other, and kept repeating Di Xiu’s name, as if something had happened to Di Xiu.
“Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing here? You’re crying at my door. It’s like you’re at my funeral.”
Dishu, wearing a clean white coat and with an expression of confusion and surprise on his face, slowly walked out of the laboratory, his eyes showing a look of confusion as if he had just experienced something incredible.
“Hahaha, Di Xiu!” Ace’s eyes lit up when he saw Di Xiu, as if he had met a good friend he hadn’t seen for a long time. He rushed over excitedly and gave Di Xiu a big bear hug.
But Ace was too excited, and the strength of his hug exceeded Di Xiu’s expectations.
022 But now the situation has changed, we have to readjust the allocation plan (old version)
“Ahem…” Di Xiu was confused by the sudden enthusiasm and almost couldn’t breathe. He struggled to push Ace away, but Ace didn’t seem to realize that he was using too much force.
“Okay, okay, I haven’t informed you yet, why are you here so early?” Di Xiu finally found an opportunity to speak, with a bit of helplessness and ridicule in his tone. “Did you eat the fruit of foresight? Did you know that my experiment will be successful soon?”
Everyone was surprised to hear Dishu say that the experiment was about to be completed.
“Hiss… Deputy Captain, what did you say? Is the experiment about to be completed?”
“Does that mean that I can soon become a dual fruit user?” Someone was so excited that he almost lost control.
“Master Di Xiu, you are so amazing!”
Di Xiu rolled his eyes. It was another bunch of professional flattery, but he quite liked listening to it.
“Okay, you must have something to do today, so just tell me.”
Hearing Di Xiu’s urging, everyone did not dare to delay and took out small bottles filled with varying amounts of blood.
“Blood?”
Di Xiu didn’t expect that everyone would come with such fanfare just to give up a little blood. It’s just a little blood, can’t he just let the soldiers deliver it?
He looked up at Whitebeard, only to see that Whitebeard was looking at him with a smile.
“Dishou brat, let me tell you straight, the blood they have is from Admiral Aokiji, and it’s still very fresh.”
Hearing Whitebeard’s words, Dishu took a deep breath and pretended to be very surprised.
“What?! You said this blood belongs to Aokiji!”
Then, he showed a particularly happy expression, “Great, with this blood, we can also cultivate a user with the ability of the Ice Fruit!”
Although Di Xiu’s surprise was mostly pretended, he was still very confused in his heart. How did they get Aokiji’s blood?
Has their plan been exposed?
Very likely!
Afterwards, Ace was so excited that he pulled Di Xiu and started talking incessantly about the origin of the blood.
He was very excited when he talked about it, especially when he was talking about the moves he created. That move was so powerful that it could fight Aokiji to a draw and even injured him. When Ace thought of this, he was filled with pride and his voice became a little higher in excitement.
Every time he recalled that battle, it was as if stars were twinkling in Ace’s eyes. In his mind, the victory of that battle seemed to have just happened, and he remembered every detail clearly.
Whitebeard was listening to his sons chatting with a pleased smile on his face.
For him, seeing these children chatting and playing happily is one of his biggest wishes.
Since forming this big pirate family, Whitebeard has been hoping to give warmth and care to every member so that everyone can feel the warmth of home.
At this moment, watching Ace excitedly sharing his experiences, Whitebeard knew that his dream was becoming a reality little by little.
For him, nothing is more important than having a united and harmonious family.
At this moment, a loud “bang” was heard, and the sound was so loud that it seemed as if the whole earth was shaking.
Immediately afterwards, countless dazzling golden lights rushed into the sky like lightning, instantly illuminating the sky as bright as day.
These golden lights were densely packed, like a grand fireworks display. A rough count revealed that there were dozens of them. Each one emitted a stunning light, which was quite spectacular.
This sudden scene shocked everyone. Everyone looked up and stared at the sky, watching this incredible spectacle.
The air was filled with a mysterious and solemn atmosphere, as if the whole world was shocked by this powerful force.
When the members of the Whitebeard Pirates saw this scene, they naturally understood what was going on.
They were so excited that they couldn’t close their mouths. They pointed at the golden light in the air and their bodies couldn’t stop shaking.
“It’s golden light! It’s really golden light! Could it be that Vice Captain Di Xiu’s experiment was successful?”
“It must have worked! Oh my god, we are so lucky!”
“I can’t wait to become a dual-fruit user!”
“Long live Vice Captain Di Xiu!”
Everyone was talking at once, their excitement evident in words.
Di Xiu looked at the dazzling golden light and understood in his heart that the experiment was successful!
But he never expected that success would come so suddenly.
“It seems that everyone has come at the right time. Let’s go and see the results of our experiment together.” Di Xiu turned around and said to everyone, his face unable to hide the excitement.
“Gulala, little devils, we all have to thank Di Xiu!” Whitebeard’s rough voice rang out. He took big steps and followed behind Di Xiu, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
As the leader of the pirate group, he was extremely pleased with the success of this experiment, and was also full of infinite expectations for the future.
After hearing what Whitebeard said, the others became even more excited.
They all walked up to Dishou and thanked him sincerely and warmly.
Everyone followed Di Xiu closely, afraid of missing something important, and even more worried that the devil fruit would not be distributed to them.
The air was filled with tension and hope. Everyone held their breath, looking forward to the upcoming surprise.
When everyone walked into the laboratory, they saw thirty pure white devil fruits placed on the laboratory table. These fruits emitted a faint light, as if they contained endless power.
“It really worked!” Marco couldn’t help but wipe his eyes, and was so excited that he almost cried. His voice was full of excitement and disbelief. After all, this meant that their previous efforts were not in vain, and they finally ushered in the dawn of victory.
“Captain, here are thirty devil fruits.” Di Xiu continued, “Based on previous enhancement experience, these fruits can be used as a share for ten people.”
After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, and then pricked up their ears to listen carefully to what Di Xiu was going to say next. They knew in their hearts that this moment was crucial for the entire pirate group, and any decision could affect future developments.
Di Xiu took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then slowly said: “Originally, we planned to prepare seven portions of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and three portions of the Mythical Beast Phoenix Form. But now the situation has changed, and we have to readjust the distribution plan.”
As soon as Di Xiu said this, the air was filled with tension and anticipation. Everyone understood that this was not just a matter of choosing strength, but also a major decision on the future development direction of the pirate group.
Whitebeard nodded slowly in approval.
023 Stop chatting here and start strengthening! (Old version)
“You are right. Aokiji’s ability is indeed very strong. His fruit ability is very important to us.”
Whitebeard pondered for a while, and finally made a decision: “Then let’s divide it like this, three portions of the Ice Fruit, two portions of the Mythical Beast Phoenix Form, and the rest will be exchanged for the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.”
As soon as Whitebeard finished speaking, everyone present nodded in agreement.
No one raised any objections. After all, Whitebeard’s status and prestige in the pirate group were unmatched.
Everyone knows that this distribution plan is the most reasonable and can make the best use of these fruit resources.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Marco showed a satisfied smile on his face. He stepped forward and said, “Now the ones who have the ability of Phoenix Form are me, Ace, and Dad. With the addition of the two people who are about to gain this ability, there are now five people who can master this powerful ability.
With so many people who can use the Phoenix form, no matter what situation we encounter on the battlefield, we can respond quickly and support each other.
No matter who is injured, they can get timely treatment and protection, and the combat effectiveness of our pirate group will definitely be greatly improved.”
The companions around him also became excited after hearing what Marco said. They knew that with these powerful fruit abilities, it would be easier to fight in the future.
“That’s right. Before, it was sometimes quite tiring for Brother Marco to use the Phoenix Form alone. Now that so many people can do it, it must be enough!”
“Yes, our combat power will definitely be greatly increased!”
“Dad’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit has a very strong attack power! Kaido is so powerful, Dad can make him dizzy with one punch, and knock him out with two punches!”
“Hahahaha, stop chatting here and start strengthening!”
Di Xiu urged everyone with a smile, and other squad captains who were ready to strengthen also gathered around.
“Let’s start with the frozen fruits.” Di Xiu said, with excitement and anticipation in his voice.
Someone took out three portions of white enhanced devil fruits, a total of nine, and placed them in front of everyone.
These fruits emit a faint light, as if they contain mysterious power, making people want to find out.
Everyone looked at these fruits and their breathing became rapid. When they thought that they might soon become users of the Ice Fruit, everyone was excited, their eyes were fixed on the fruits, their hearts full of anticipation and desire.
“Who will be the first?” Dishu looked around at the crowd who were both nervous and excited, and his voice echoed in the laboratory.
Everyone looked at each other, hesitant. Everyone knew that it would be too embarrassing if the first person to try failed.
Everyone was thinking in their mind that they hoped others would come forward first so that they could observe from the side.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and the air was filled with a depressing and tense atmosphere.
At this moment, a clear voice broke the silence: “I’ll do it!”
Everyone’s eyes suddenly turned to the direction where the sound came from.
The person who was speaking was a woman. She was the only female captain of the Whitebeard Pirates – the Ice Witch Whitebeard.
Of course Di Xiu knew who she was and was very familiar with this female captain.
Wai Dibe has long, shiny black hair that falls behind her like a waterfall, sparkling under the light, as charming as the stars in the night sky.
Her lips are full and sexy, and the corners of her mouth are slightly upturned, revealing a sense of confidence and determination. She is wearing a unique striped shirt with delicate flower buttons, which is fashionable and unique. She also has a lace scarf around her neck, which makes her look playful and cute.
“Deputy Captain Di Xiu, can we start?”
Waidibei looked at Dixiu charmingly, her eyes almost overflowing with admiration. In her eyes, Dixiu was handsome and powerful, exactly the type she liked.
Di Xiu was shocked by Whitebee’s boldness and frankness. He sighed in his heart that most women in the pirate world are very outgoing, especially when expressing love, they are not shy at all and are very direct.
“Uh…yeah, sure.”
As he spoke, Di Xiu carefully took out a small glass bottle of Aokiji’s blood from his pocket. He was very cautious, fearing that there would be any mistakes.
Everyone held their breath and stared closely at Di Xiu’s every move. Di Xiu slowly dripped Aokiji’s blood from the small glass bottle onto the three white enhanced devil fruits.
The moment the blood touched the surface of the white devil fruit, something magical happened.
The originally pure white surface of the devil fruit changed rapidly. The white stripes seemed to be awakened by some mysterious power and instantly turned into a deep and charming blue.
Moreover, these blue stripes became more complex and exquisite, like ancient runes, full of mysterious power and charm.
Although the entire transformation process was short, it was amazing. Everyone was deeply shocked by this incredible scene.
Even though they had seen many strange sights in the pirate world, they were still shocked by such a miraculous change.
There was an indescribable atmosphere in the air that made people both excited and awe-inspiring.
“It’s amazing. Every time I see Vice Captain Di Xiu doing this, I want to bow down at his feet!”
“Hahaha, I feel the same way!”
“I’m so envious. When will it be our turn?”
Three ice-blue frozen fruits lay quietly on the laboratory table.
“I hope my luck isn’t too bad.”
As Whiteybee spoke, he walked forward, carefully picked up a frozen fruit, and took a light bite.
Her little face wrinkled instantly. The taste of the devil fruit was just as bad as the rumors said.
Waidibei swallowed the fruit despite her nausea, and under everyone’s expectant gaze, she carefully felt the changes in her body. After a while, she found that her body had no reaction.
“That’s normal. Take another one.” Di Xiu knew that this was a failure, so he picked up another one and handed it to her.
“snort!”
Waidibei didn’t expect to fail the first time, and he felt confused and unwilling.
But she did not give up. She picked up the second devil fruit without hesitation and ate it again.
As soon as she swallowed the fruit, her body underwent amazing changes!
024 Impossible! Why is my luck so bad! (Old version)
Ice-blue mists slowly emerged from her body, as if a mysterious power surged out of her body. The mists quickly spread around, and wherever they reached, flowers, plants, tables, chairs, and benches were all frozen into ice sculptures. The air was filled with a bone-chilling cold, and people couldn’t help shivering.
“Oh no, step back quickly!” someone in the crowd shouted in panic.
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly took a big step back.
Just as I stood firm, the mist disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if it had never appeared.
Whiteybee stood there, looking somewhat embarrassed, forcing an apologetic smile on his face.
“I’m so sorry, everyone. I was so excited when I succeeded just now that I lost control of my strength.” She hurriedly explained, with a hint of guilt in her voice.
Everyone looked at the scene in front of them, feeling shocked and curious. The power of this devil fruit was too powerful!
After the frost mist dissipated, Whiteybee appeared excitedly, and without saying a word, he rushed up and gave Dishu a big hug.
The plumpness of her breasts almost made Di Xiu faint.
“Ahem… Congratulations, you are so lucky that you succeeded the second time.”
Di Xiu took a lot of effort to break free from her arms. After all, there were so many people at the scene, and he couldn’t bear to stay in her arms all the time.
“Hehehe~~~” Whitey covered her mouth and laughed, thinking that their Deputy Captain Dixiu would actually be shy. Such a man was really what she wanted.
Then, she leaned close to Di Xiu’s ear and whispered softly, “Deputy Captain Xiao Di Bei, I will go to your place tonight to thank you very much~”
Di Xiu was speechless: “…” I have always treated you as a brother, but you actually had such an idea.
“Ahem, who’s next?”
“I’ll do it!”
Time flies by quickly.
As the devil fruits were used one by one, the share of the ice fruit allocated to the three people was soon used up.
The result surprised Di Xiu a little.
“Nine enhanced devil fruits, and six of them worked!”
Now, there are a total of six users with the ability of Ice Devil Fruit in the Whitebeard Pirates!
I really can’t imagine what kind of waves this news would cause on this ocean if it got out.
Next, he began to try the mythical beast-Phoenix form to strengthen the devil fruit.
The process went smoothly and the results were acceptable, but not as amazing as frozen fruits.
In the end, three Phoenix-form ability users were successfully born!
“Now it’s Dad’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit’s turn. I’ll be the first to go!”
Qiaozi couldn’t wait to rush out of the crowd.
In fact, from the very beginning, he planned to strengthen his father’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
I have been waiting until now and finally got what I wanted.
“Captain, thank you for your help.”
“Gulala, this is nothing, just a little bit of blood.”
Whitebeard walked forward slowly, stretched out his right index finger, and lightly scratched it, and a wound appeared on the finger.
Blood oozed from the wound, dripping onto each devil fruit.
Under the surprised gaze of everyone, those white devil fruits began to change rapidly.
The strange patterns seemed to have life, entwining and climbing each other, and soon formed wavy patterns on the surface of the devil fruit.
These patterns seem to contain mysterious power, which makes people feel awe.
……
What’s even more surprising is that the color of the devil fruit also changed.
The originally white fruits gradually turned into a color similar to yellowish rock, as if they were undergoing a magical transformation, becoming more powerful and mysterious.
It was also the first time that Di Xiu saw the true appearance of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
He never imagined that this fruit with the power to destroy the world would be so ordinary in appearance.
However, it is the power to destroy the world hidden under this ordinary appearance that makes the devil fruit the treasure that pirates dream of!
“Hahaha, then I, Joz, won’t be polite.”
As he spoke, Joz picked up the first Tremor Fruit on the table, put it directly into his mouth without even looking at it, and swallowed it whole without even chewing it.
“…Brother Joz is too fierce!”
“They actually ate it raw. Can this way of eating avoid the disgusting taste of the devil fruit?”
“I’m not sure, but looking at Brother Qiaozi’s excited expression, it seems to be the case.”
“Then I will eat like this from now on!”
“Me too.”
The other squad captains and the pirates watching were all stunned, staring at Joz intently, waiting to see what change he would make next.
“…Uh, nothing seems to be different.”
Qiao Zi smiled foolishly and scratched his head embarrassedly, “I’m so sorry for making a fool of myself in front of everyone.”
“This is normal. Except for Dad, no one can succeed the first time they eat it. Try another one.” Ace walked forward and comforted him.
“Okay, I’m sure I’ll succeed this time!”
After saying that, Joz picked up the second Tremor-Tremor Fruit and chewed it carefully bite by bite in front of everyone. Finally, he swallowed it all with an expressionless face.
When Di Xiu saw this scene, his scalp went numb and he couldn’t help but wonder if this devil fruit was fake.
How could there be someone in this world who could eat a devil fruit and not have any change in expression?
And he chewed it so carefully and swallowed it bit by bit!
This is too fierce.
Not only Di Xiu, but the other pirates were also stunned when they saw Jozu eating like this, and their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
“I would like to call Brother Joz the strongest…”
“By the way, does Brother Joz have no sense of taste? Otherwise, how could he not have any reaction at all!”
Everyone was discussing the matter, but Qiao Zi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan and was about to cry.
He carefully felt every change in his body, but there was still no movement!
“Impossible! Why is my luck so bad!”
“No reaction at all. Could this be a fake Tremor-Tremor Fruit?”
“I just don’t believe this!”
Before anyone could stop him, Joz grabbed the last Tremor-Tremor Fruit, stuffed it into his mouth, took two big bites, and swallowed it without caring whether it was chewed or not!
Just after a while, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on Joz’s face, and then he became ecstatic.
“I succeeded, I felt it, I succeeded!”
Joz slowly stretched out his right hand, palm facing up. As he moved, a transparent circular force field slowly condensed in his hand. This force field emitted a soft and mysterious light, as if it contained endless energy.
025 Ace, do you want to try out your new abilities? (Old version)
Then, Joz clenched his right hand suddenly, and in an instant, a chilling “cracking” sound was heard in the air. The sound was sharp and piercing, like glass being scratched by a hard object, which made people shudder.
As Joz’s grip tightened faster, the “cracking” sounds became more frequent and louder, almost becoming a continuous sound.
At the same time, countless tiny but clearly visible cracks spread outward from the center of the transparent force field. These cracks spread in all directions at an alarming speed. Wherever they went, the air seemed to be torn apart and the entire space was distorted, giving people a feeling that it would shatter at any time.
“hey-hey!”
The corners of Qiaozi’s mouth turned up, revealing a smug smile, with confidence and provocation flashing in his eyes.
Before he finished speaking, he swung his right arm violently, releasing the powerful force gathered in his hand through a punch. This punch not only carried a huge impact force, but also had the power to shake the heavens and the earth.
In an instant, the surrounding space seemed to vibrate, and an even more violent “cracking” sound was heard in the air. It was the sound of the air beginning to collapse as it could not withstand the strong pressure.
At this moment, the originally peaceful mountain not far away suddenly suffered an unprecedented attack. The mountain began to shake violently as if it had encountered a natural disaster, and then a deafening roar was heard.
“boom!”
Accompanied by a loud bang, the entire hill was actually blown to pieces, with countless rocks flying everywhere. The scene was extremely spectacular and shocking.
At this moment, everyone was stunned by the scene before them. No one expected that Joz had such a devastating ability.
When Qiao Zi saw this scene, a hint of surprise and excitement flashed in his eyes.
He also didn’t expect that a casual punch could cause such great damage.
The power of the previous attack seemed to still linger in the air, making everything around seem particularly depressing.
“Come again!”
Joz yelled, his voice full of challenge.
He grabbed the air with both hands, as if he had grabbed something invisible, and the air began to twist.
Then he pulled it down suddenly, as if he wanted to tear the entire sky down.
As he moved, cracks appeared in the air. These cracks quickly spread in all directions and finally converged on a hill not far away.
The hill seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand and then pressed hard into the ground.
There was a loud bang and the entire mountain collapsed in an instant, with dust flying and rubble scattering everywhere. The originally lush hill turned into a ruin in the blink of an eye.
The scene suddenly became eerily quiet. Everyone was stunned by the sight before them. Only the sound of people gasping for air broke the silence.
“This… this is too terrifying. A mountaintop was flattened with just one punch!!!”
“The Tremor-Tremor Fruit is indeed the devil fruit with the strongest attack power!”
“Of course. Don’t forget that when Dad was young, he was known as a man with the power to destroy the world!”
“Dad’s ability is definitely the strongest!”
“Gulala, Joz, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit puts quite a strain on the body.” Whitebeard said in his deep and powerful voice.
He patted Joz’s shoulder and continued to explain, “Every time you use the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, it can cause huge damage, but at the same time your body will also suffer a corresponding reaction force.
This force is mutual, not only releasing energy to the outside, but also impacting the user himself.
My body has become so weak because of the hidden injuries accumulated over the years.
Those seemingly insignificant little wounds can accumulate over time and become big problems.”
…..
Having said this, Whitebeard paused, as if recalling his past years of fighting.
Then, he turned his gaze to Joz, and his tone became more firm: “But you will be fine! The Shining Fruit makes your body incomparably hard, as hard as diamond.
In this case, the reaction force caused by the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is almost negligible.
You are strong enough to handle these challenges.”
Hearing his father’s praise, Joz’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“Hahahaha, thank you, Dad.”
Flower Sword Vista, who was standing by, turned red with eyes when she saw the powerful destructive power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
“It’s my turn, it’s my turn!”
The atmosphere at the scene was so enthusiastic that it was almost crazy, but surprisingly, there was no chaotic scene of looting.
The reason is actually very simple. There are enough items to be distributed this time and everyone can get one.
The next step is to strengthen a single devil fruit.
After a long wait, all the processes of strengthening the devil fruit were completed.
In the end, eight people successfully awakened the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit!
To say that this result is not particularly good, but it is not bad either. Originally, it was expected that only seven people would be able to obtain the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, and now there is one more person, so overall it is not too bad.
Although these people were extremely excited, they still tried to restrain themselves.
They knew in their hearts that they could not continue to play around here. After all, with the powerful abilities they had just acquired, if they accidentally lost control, Di Xiu’s experimental base would be destroyed in an instant.
“Gulala, little devils, find a quiet place and adapt to your new abilities so that Dishu can have a good rest.” White Beard said.
After hearing this, everyone expressed their sincere gratitude to Di Xiu again, and some of them even knelt down to express their gratitude!
If it weren’t for Di Xiu, they might have been unknown soldiers all their lives and would never have the chance to possess a devil fruit, let alone a top-level devil fruit like the one Whitebeard possesses!
Therefore, in their hearts, Di Xiu’s kindness to them was like a rebirth. This kneeling was a complete expression of their gratitude from the bottom of their hearts, and it was not an exaggeration at all!
Marco walked forward with a smile on his face, put his arm around Ace’s shoulders, raised his right hand, and gently clenched it into a fist. In an instant, a circular force field wrapped around his right hand. He smiled and said to Ace, “Ace, do you want to try out your new ability?”
“Hmph! Marco, Dad’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit’s attack power is indeed very strong, but don’t forget, my Flame-Flame Fruit is not bad either! Are you really sure you want to compete with me?” Ace looked at Marco unconvinced.
Just before the strengthening ceremony, Whitebeard had suggested that Ace try to strengthen the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, but Ace rejected the suggestion without hesitation.
026 Now that the Whitebeard Pirates’ strength has greatly increased, it shouldn’t be difficult to get some funds! (Old version)
There is a simple but firm reason behind Ace’s decision: the Flame-Flame Fruit is not an ordinary devil fruit to him.
It is more like a close companion who has accompanied him through countless days and nights and through countless life and death tests.
Since embarking on the road of sailing adventure, no matter how powerful the enemy is, or how dangerous the situation is, Ace has relied on the “fire” power granted by the Flame-Flame Fruit to escape danger time and time again.
Whenever a crisis came, the hot and fierce flames would help him break through the encirclement and defeat one opponent after another.
It is no exaggeration to say that without the special abilities brought by the Flame-Flame Fruit, there would be no Ace standing here today.
In Ace’s heart, the relationship between him and the Flame-Flame Fruit has long surpassed a simple relationship of ability dependence and is more like an inseparable and close bond between souls.
Moreover, as a fighter known for his powerful offensive power, Ace is well aware that his unique fighting style is almost entirely based on his superb skills in controlling fire.
If he rashly switched to another type of devil fruit ability, it would not only mean that he would have to start from scratch and adapt to a completely new way of fighting, but it might also cause him to lose the combat advantages that he originally had at his disposal.
Taking all these factors into consideration, Ace became more determined not to give up the Flame-Flame Fruit.
It is precisely because of these reasons that when everyone else was actively participating in the Tremor-Tremor Fruit strengthening activity, Ace chose to stand aside and watch quietly, without any hesitation in his heart.
“That’s for sure. Don’t worry, I have the Phoenix form. Even if I fight with you, I won’t do anything to you.” Marco joked.
Ace angrily slapped away Marco’s hand on his shoulder and shouted, “Let’s go, let’s compete! My Flame-Flame Fruit will definitely let you taste the power of it!”
“Hahaha, then I’ll wait and see!” Marco responded with a smile.
Seeing the two people going to compete, the others suddenly became interested and followed to watch the fun. Maybe in the process, they could learn one or two powerful moves from their fight.
After everyone left, Di Xiu returned to the house and sat quietly on the recliner alone.
He closed his eyes, and the system panel instantly appeared in his mind.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the mission! ][The rewards are as follows:][1. New technology is launched: Devil Fruit replica technology! ][2. Martial arts: Heaven-slashing sword technique! ]【3. Automatic training of Armament Haki! 】
“Brother Tongzi has really invested a lot this time.” Di Xiu’s eyes were shining with irrepressible excitement.
Looking at these rewards, he felt warm air surging through his body. These air currents flowed slowly through his limbs and bones, filling his whole body with strength, as if his newly acquired martial arts and domineering aura could be easily displayed at any time.
However, he still suppressed his inner excitement and decided to study these rewards carefully first.
After a while, Di Xiu opened his eyes, his eyes full of shock. He took a deep breath and said with emotion: “This new technology is too powerful! The Devil Fruit Replication Technology can actually perfectly replicate the abilities of the original ability user! And its so-called shortcomings are not shortcomings at all! Replacing the original ability, what kind of shortcomings is this! If the original Devil Fruit ability is not very good, using this technology to replicate it is simply a step to heaven!”
Di Xiu’s gaze fell on the newly acquired martial art “Heaven-cutting Sword Technique”.
“This introduction is too simple, just six words: can cut through the sky, shatter the galaxy! But according to past experience, the more powerful the martial arts, the simpler the introduction.”
Di Xiu slowly raised his right hand, put his five fingers together, and then gently stroked them in the air, as if leaving an invisible trace in the air.
At this moment, an indescribable force surged in his body. As his mind focused, this force gradually condensed and took shape, and finally turned into an illusory but extremely sharp sword energy.
Although this sword energy looked transparent, the aura it exuded was extremely sharp, making people shudder. It not only contained a powerful attack force, but also carried a chilling killing intent, as if with just a slight swing, it could cut off all obstacles in front of it.
As time went by, this “sword” made of pure energy became clearer and clearer. From its initial blurry state, it slowly became well-defined, as if a real sword was suspended in mid-air.
At the same time, its power is constantly increasing, and with every breath, one can feel the growth of the power contained within it.
However, this powerful force does not come without a price. Maintaining this highly concentrated energy sword requires a lot of physical and mental strength.
As the sword energy existed for longer and longer, Di Xiu clearly felt the energy in his body being rapidly lost, and beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.
He knew in his heart that if he could not deal with the enemy before him as soon as possible, he would be in an unprecedented state of weakness.
Therefore, when using this move, one must be extremely careful and cautious. One must ensure that one can exert the maximum power to defeat the opponent, while also ensuring that one’s own safety is not threatened.
“Now I have one more trump card to save my life!” Di Xiu thought to himself, with a smile on his face. After all, in this world of pirates where the strong prey on the weak, the more means of saving lives the better.
Then, Di Xiu saw a new task: “Complete the devil fruit replication 100 times, will it unlock the next technology?”
Di Xiu thought about it carefully and felt that this task was not difficult. After all, replicating a devil fruit was not as difficult as strengthening it. The success rate of replicating was 100%, and it would only replace the original ability.
Judging from the situation, as long as he has enough funds and the blood of the devil fruit owner, he can complete the task quickly and unlock the next technology!
“Now that the Whitebeard Pirates’ strength has greatly increased, it shouldn’t be difficult to obtain some funds!” Di Xiu is full of confidence in the future.
Teach stood on the shore of a remote island near Gaya Island, his brows tightly furrowed, his eyes fixed on the direction of Gaya Island in the distance, without saying a word.
His heart was filled with doubts and uneasiness, as if an invisible pressure was slowly approaching him.
027 That Oden is so stupid that it makes me anxious! (Old version)
“What the hell are those guys doing?” he muttered softly, with a hint of anger and confusion in his voice.
A few days ago, he discovered that strange golden lights appeared one after another on Gaya Island. These golden lights were sometimes strong and sometimes weak, as if hiding some unspeakable secrets.
At first, he was just out of curiosity and wanted to find an opportunity to sneak into Gaya Island to find out what was happening there.
However, today’s situation shocked him even more. He saw dozens of golden lights rushing towards the sky from the direction of Gaya Island, as dazzling as a meteor shower in the night sky.
These golden lights were not only numerous but also incredibly intense, almost dyeing the entire sky golden.
Such a spectacular sight made Tiqi couldn’t help but gasp.
What made him even more uneasy was that there were constant shaking and tearing sounds coming from the direction of Gaya Island.
He was very familiar with this sound, it was the sound made when Whitebeard used his ability. Every time Whitebeard used his full strength, it would be accompanied by this deafening sound.
And now, this sound came from Jaya Island one after another, as if Whitebeard was fighting a fierce battle with some powerful opponent.
“What is going on?” Tiqi’s doubts grew deeper and deeper.
He couldn’t understand why there were so many strange golden lights on Gaya Island and why there were such strong vibrations.
Could it be that Whitebeard encountered an extremely powerful enemy?
Or did some unknown and terrible incident happen on Gaya Island?
Whatever the case, this was far beyond Teach’s expectations.
He knew that he had to find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible and must not put himself in greater danger.
This forced him to temporarily put his original plan of sneaking into Gaya Island on hold. He decided to take a long-term view. After all, to him, nothing was more important than his own life.
The sky gradually darkened, the moon was high in the sky, the stars were twinkling, and the only sounds on the sea were the occasional crash of waves and the faint lights of ships in the distance.
After a tiring day, Di Xiu planned to take a rest after washing up. He had gained a lot today and it was indeed time for him to have a good sleep.
He took off his heavy coat, put on comfortable pajamas, and was about to lie down on the bed when he suddenly heard the sound of the door being gently pushed open.
Whiteybee, wearing pajamas, appeared at the door silently, which scared Dixiu.
“Thinking… thinking of Dibei?” Di Xiu looked at her in surprise, an indescribable feeling surging in his heart.
He suddenly remembered what Whitebee had said during the day – was she serious about what she said during the day? Was she coming to him in the middle of the night to repay him?
“Mr. Captain, I have no way to repay you for giving me the devil fruit, so I can only repay you with my body~” Whitebee’s voice was gentle and firm, and his eyes were full of gratitude and tenderness.
She walked towards Di Xiu with slow steps, and every step seemed to carry an irresistible charm.
Di Xiu felt his heartbeat suddenly speed up, but he still tried to keep himself calm: “Uh… no need to be like this, I just appreciate your kindness…”
Before he could finish his words, his vision suddenly went dark, a faint fragrance wafted in his face, and Whiteybee fell into his arms.
Waidibe hugged him tightly, as if he wanted to pass all his warmth to Dixiu.
“If the deputy captain refuses me, I will be very angry~” Whitey raised his head, tears flashing in his eyes, his tone was a little aggrieved, and there was a hint of coquettishness.
She pressed her cheek against Di Xiu’s chest, quietly feeling his heartbeat. At this moment, it seemed as if the whole world had stopped.
Di Xiu took a deep breath, feeling the softness and warmth of the woman in his arms, and the defenses in his heart gradually began to loosen.
He knew that tonight was destined to be an unusual night.
Di Xiu: “……” I am not as strong as others, it’s really helpless… With his current strength, he can’t beat a captain-level character at all. So since he can’t resist, he can only accept it silently…
The night passed quietly and nothing special happened.
Early the next morning, the bright sunshine shone through the windows of the station and gently fell on the spacious station.
All members of the Whitebeard Pirates gathered together.
Everyone’s face was shining with confidence and filled with joyful smiles.
After a whole night of hard training yesterday, they had a deeper understanding of their devil fruit abilities.
Not only that, but I also mastered a lot of new skills.
In particular, the ability of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, several captains have studied it very thoroughly.
The Tremor-Tremor Fruit already possessed a terrifyingly powerful force, and in the hands of these experienced warriors, it was brought to its full potential. It became even more flexible and diverse, making it more unpredictable.
Every time someone used the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, the entire venue would shake violently. The vibration seemed to have such great power that even the air seemed to be ruthlessly torn apart.
The reason why they can master these skills so quickly is actually not complicated: they live with the white-bearded old man every day.
In such an environment, even those who are slow to react and don’t seem very smart at first can gradually master these skills.
What’s more, these captains are very smart.
At this time, a pirate said, “Dad, there are still many brothers who haven’t had time to strengthen their strength. Now that our strength has greatly increased, why don’t we take this opportunity to make some money?”
Another pirate responded immediately: “Let’s start with Kaido! I’ve disliked him for a long time. He calls himself the strongest creature in the world, but it’s just bullshit!”
“That’s right! If Dad hadn’t been in poor health before, he would have dealt with that guy who was determined to die and let him really die!” someone else echoed.
Some people also complained: “That Oden is so stupid that it makes people anxious!”
“Okay, okay, stop talking.” Someone spoke up to stop them.
“The dead are the greatest, so please respect them.”
Although everyone felt sorry and angry about Oden’s death, it was not appropriate to say anything more in this situation.
After all, Oden was once a member of the Whitebeard Pirates and was their brother. No matter what, he should be protected.
Previously, due to my father’s health, many things were put on hold. But now it’s different, my father has recovered and is back to his peak form.
028 As expected of the vice-captain, he dared to attack the Celestial Dragons right from the start! (Old version)
It’s time to settle those past grudges.
Di Xiu listened to everyone’s discussion quietly and did not express his own opinion, because he felt that what everyone said was indeed reasonable.
Even they themselves felt that Oden’s death was pathetic and that he did not have the demeanor of a tough guy like the Whitebeard Pirates.
Just as everyone was talking about it, the white-bearded man sitting at the top slowly spoke.
His voice was deep and powerful, like thunder from the horizon, echoing in the room. This sound made everyone stop talking and hold their breath.
“Little brats,” Whitebeard’s tone was filled with unquestionable majesty, “I, your father, have always kept these things in mind. Especially the matter of Oden and Kaido, there must be a conclusion!”
Every word he said was firm and powerful, like a heavy stone hitting the ground, making people feel a powerful and irresistible force.
Whitebeard’s eyes were cold and firm, as if he could see through everything and knew the future victory or defeat, life or death.
“But now is not the time.” Whitebeard continued, his tone slightly softer, but still full of strength and determination.
“Kaido has been operating in Wano Country for many years. His Beasts Pirates are very powerful and are now at the peak of their powers.
Although our strength has greatly improved, overall we are still at a disadvantage.”
Having said this, Whitebeard paused and slowly scanned everyone present, as if observing everyone’s determination and courage.
Then, he smiled slightly, a smile that showed both helplessness about the current situation and confidence in the future.
“Don’t worry, everyone.” Whitebeard emphasized again, his voice full of comfort and encouragement, “As long as we have funds and Di Xiu is here, our strength will improve quickly.
When we take action against Kaido, we must completely defeat the Beasts Pirates! Only in this way can we prevent Kaido’s remnants from making a comeback! “
Whitebeard’s words were like a warm spring breeze, instantly warming everyone’s hearts.
Everyone felt Dad’s trust and support for them, and it also strengthened their belief – no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead, as long as they follow Dad, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome!
Now, they also have Di Xiu!
Everyone firmly believes that as long as Di Xiu is there, the Whitebeard Pirates will be invincible!
Whitebeard expressed his inner thoughts, and his deep gaze fell on Di Xiu intentionally or unintentionally.
It was obvious that he had something to say to Di Xiu.
“Boy Dixiu, the pirate group’s strength has been greatly improved thanks to you. Can you say something too?” Although Whitebeard’s voice was low, it was full of expectation and trust.
Ace immediately agreed, “Yes, yes, Brother Di Xiu, come and tell us!” His tone was full of support and his eyes revealed his admiration for Di Xiu.
In his heart, apart from his father, only Di Xiu could make him admire him so much.
Marco also clapped his hands and said with a smile: “Captain Dishu, come and tell us about it!” His smile was warm and sincere.
Joz patted his chest and assured, “Deputy Captain, no matter what you tell me to do, I, Joz, will definitely not be vague!” He had a stubbled face and looked rough and heroic, which made people feel trust in him involuntarily.
Waidibei looked at Dixiu tenderly, her eyes full of admiration, as if silently saying: This is the most powerful man in my heart, the best in the world! Her eyes were full of love and pride, as if announcing to everyone how powerful Dixiu was.
“Since everyone says so, I’ll say a few words.” Di Xiu couldn’t refuse anymore, so he stood up.
He glanced slowly around to make sure everyone was listening to him.
Then, he took a deep breath and began to speak: “Right now, what we lack most is funds. Do you know who is the richest person in the world?”
Without waiting for anyone to answer, Di Xiu gave the answer directly: “It’s the Celestial Dragons!”
Speaking of the Celestial Dragons, Di Xiu’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a barely perceptible cold light flashed in his eyes.
He went on to say, “The Celestial Dragons, a group of self-proclaimed gods, control almost all of the wealth in this world! They live an extremely luxurious life, but have no sympathy for ordinary people.”
“Robbing their money is much faster and easier than robbing Kaido.” Di Xiu’s tone was firm and decisive, “Especially the Heavenly Gold. Those member states have to hand over a large amount of Heavenly Gold to the Celestial Dragons every year.
This money is ill-gotten gains looted from the people of various countries, but now it is used by the Tianlong people to enjoy a luxurious life. If we can seize this stolen money, it will not only relieve the people’s anger, but also solve our problem of capital shortage. “
After Di Xiu finished speaking, he paused and looked around at everyone present again.
After he finished speaking, the whole room suddenly became quiet. There was a tense atmosphere in the air, but there was also a hint of hope, as if a storm was about to come.
All the squad captains looked at Di Xiu in surprise, thinking: Is this really our deputy captain?
He looks innocent, but I didn’t expect that he would deal with the most powerful people in the world as soon as he opened his mouth!
this……
“Hiss… As expected of the deputy captain, he dares to target the Celestial Dragons right from the start!” A captain couldn’t help but whispered, with admiration and a bit of disbelief in his eyes.
“Hahaha, those Celestial Dragons are nothing but a bunch of pampered guys. What are you afraid of? Just kill them!” Another captain laughed and echoed, his tone full of disdain and provocation.
“Can I get money by killing them? We must do it!”
“Not only do we have to do it, we have to do it big!”
“That’s right, I’ll send someone to collect information about Tian Shang Jin and report as soon as I get any!”
Di Xiu nodded slightly, thinking to himself: This guy is quite smart. If there is a chance in the future, I can consider giving him a devil fruit.
Marco also looked at Dishu, chuckled and said, “We should have news soon. The arrogant Celestial Dragons never hide their whereabouts, and they always make a big fuss wherever they go.” There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone, and it was obvious that he was no longer surprised by the Celestial Dragons’ arrogant behavior.
029 Whatever technology it is, this is amazing! (Old version)
“Hmph! I met that group of guys once before at sea.” Ace seemed to be lost in memories, with a hint of disdain in his eyes. “They are still wearing glass covers in broad daylight, as if they are afraid of contact with others. How ridiculous.” His words were full of dissatisfaction and contempt for the Celestial Dragons’ condescending attitude.
Joz was so angry that he clenched his fists and cursed: “They are a bunch of bastards! My hometown was destroyed by them. One day, I will wipe out all these guys!” His voice was low and angry, and every word was filled with deep hatred, as if it was squeezed out from between his teeth.
“Gulala, little devils, there will definitely be opportunities in the future. I believe… this day will not be too far away!” White Beard said in a deep voice.
Di Xiu continued: “Yes, there is another good news to tell you.”
Hearing the good news, everyone suddenly perked up, their eyes widened, their faces full of surprise. Everyone knew that the surprise brought by the deputy captain must be extraordinary, maybe it was great news!
Captains Ace, Marco, Joz and others all stood up excitedly, their eyes wide as bells, and asked in unison: “Di Xiu, what’s the surprise this time!”
“Gulala, Dixiu, have you researched a devil fruit with a 100% success rate?” Whitebeard said half-jokingly. In fact, he himself didn’t quite believe it. If there really was such a devil fruit, he would immediately lead everyone to deal with Kaido!
The power of the Blue Dragon Fruit is not weak, and his sons deserve more powerful power.
When the others heard Whitebeard’s words, their eyes lit up and they stared at Di Xiu like a group of hungry wolves, as if to say: Di Xiu, tell me it’s true! Tell me it’s true!
“Hahahahahaha.” Di Xiu was amused by everyone’s expressions. He didn’t keep anyone in suspense and said directly, “That’s about right. I developed a new technology called Devil Fruit Replication. The success rate is indeed 100%.”
His voice was not loud, but when these words reached everyone’s ears, it was like thunder exploding in their minds!
Every word and every syllable hit their hearts like a heavy hammer. Everyone was so shocked that they couldn’t speak for a moment, their eyes were filled with disbelief and fear, and they forgot to breathe for a moment, almost suffocating!
There was a suffocating feeling of oppression in the air, as if time had stopped at this moment.
Whitebeard was also shocked by the news. His eyes, which were originally as sharp as an eagle, were now wide open and almost popped out of their sockets.
He choked on the wine he had just drunk, and most of it sprayed out. He also started coughing violently, and he almost felt as uncomfortable as before he strengthened his strength.
His face turned red due to coughing, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he looked very miserable.
“Little Dee Xiu, what you said… is all true???”
Di Xiu nodded again in affirmation. Seeing Di Xiu’s confirmation, Whitebeard finally felt relieved.
“Gulala, you are truly the lucky star of our Whitebeard Pirates! This era is destined to belong to us!
No, to be more precise, it is your era, Di Xiu!”
When the others heard this, they were also completely impressed by Di Xiu’s ability. The shock this news brought to them was so great that everyone was stunned for a long time before cheering excitedly.
“Oh my god! If the success rate is really 100%, doesn’t that mean it only takes 100,000 Baileys to strengthen a devil fruit?”
“Hey, brother, this is not enhancement, it’s Devil Fruit replication technology. You can tell the difference from the name.”
“Hiss… No matter what technology it is, it’s too amazing!”
“Deputy Captain Dishu, I volunteer to be your first experimental subject. Please use me as your experiment!”
“Go away, I can see what you’re thinking from a distance!”
“Hahaha, now we can all have abilities as powerful as Daddy!”
“That’s amazing!”
The crowd was boiling with excitement, and the emotions were like a surging tide, wave after wave, almost drowning their rationality. Everyone was so excited that they could not control themselves, their bodies were shaking slightly, as if they were about to cheer in the next second.
At the critical moment when the frenzy was about to get out of control, Di Xiu raised his hand slowly. The seemingly random action had a magical power, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly quieting the noisy space.
His movements were simple and crisp, yet they had an irresistible power that immediately silenced everyone present, who looked at him intently, ready to listen attentively to every word he was going to say next.
“There is an essential difference between Devil Fruit replication technology and enhancement.” Di Xiu said slowly, “Everyone knows their success rates, and the difference between the two is also very obvious.”
“Enhancement can add extra abilities to the ability user.” He paused and continued to explain, “And the devil fruit replication technology is to copy the ability of the ability user so that others can also have it.”
When Di Xiu said this, he frowned slightly, feeling that this was a bit awkward and difficult to express. So, he changed to a more understandable way of saying it: “To put it simply, if you eat a replica devil fruit, the original ability of the ability user will be replaced by the ability of this fruit.”
After a brief pause, Di Xiu added: “Of course, if you don’t have any abilities, after eating the replica devil fruit, you can gain the abilities replicated by this fruit.”
Ace couldn’t help but frown as he listened to Di Xiu’s explanation. Unable to suppress his doubts, he asked, “Brother Di Xiu, what about the abilities gained through strengthening? Will they also be replaced?”
“No.” Di Xiu shook his head and answered patiently, “The replica devil fruit will only replace the original ability of the ability holder. Take you for example, you have the Flame-Flame Fruit, and you can also transform into the Mythical Beast Phoenix Form. If you eat the captain’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit, then your Flame-Flame Fruit ability will be replaced by the Tremor-Tremor Fruit ability, and finally become the Tremor-Tremor Fruit plus the Mythical Beast Phoenix Form.”
After hearing this, Ace nodded to show that he understood, and the doubts in his heart dissipated.
030 Dad, no matter what, you have to let me rush to the front this time! (Old version)
At this time, Marco walked over with a brisk pace, patted Ace on the shoulder in a friendly manner, and persuaded him in a light-hearted and humorous tone: “Ace, don’t worry about it anymore, just replace the Flame-Flame Fruit. Think about it carefully, if you change to a fruit ability that is more suitable for you, maybe you can win the next battle!”
After hearing this, Ace showed a stubborn look on his face, and he snorted coldly and said, “Hmph! I lost the battle yesterday because I was careless. I will never lose again next time!” His tone was full of unwillingness to admit defeat, and it was obvious that he was still brooding over yesterday’s failure.
“Okay, okay, let’s find another time to compete.” Seeing this, Marco didn’t say anything more, just smiled and nodded. He knew Ace’s temper well, and once he made up his mind, it would be difficult to change it easily, so he stopped persuading him.
Seeing the determination in Ace’s eyes, Marco sighed secretly in his heart. After all, the Flame-Flame Fruit had been with Ace for a long time, and it was hard for him to give it up all of a sudden. This kind of emotional dependence and habit cannot be let go just by saying so.
However, Marco couldn’t help but feel excited when he recalled the battle scene yesterday. The power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was so strong that it directly shook Ace’s fire fist into pieces. Before Ace could get close to the opponent, the fire fist dissipated into the air. This difference in strength was really shocking.
Di Xiu looked at Marco and Ace, and knew what happened between them. There was no need to look at the result of yesterday’s battle, Ace must have lost. What Di Xiu was concerned about now was whether Ace would really change the Flame-Flame Fruit to the Tremor-Tremor Fruit or other fruits.
But the most important thing right now is to make money. Ace has the mythical beast Phoenix form, so he won’t lose his life easily. There’s still time to talk about other things later. Thinking of this, Di Xiu said, “Okay, that’s all I want to say. I hope everyone’s strength will become stronger and stronger.”
“Hahaha, thank you, Vice Captain Di Xiu!”
“Long live Di Xiu!”
“Long live the deputy captain!”
Everyone cheered.
Just like that, two and a half days later, a piece of news exploded on Gaya Island like a bolt from the blue – there was news about Tian Shangjin! This sudden news made everyone on the island excited and nervous.
“Dad, no matter what you have to let me be the first one this time!” Joz requested loudly, his voice full of determination and desire.
“In every previous operation, I could only serve as a shield and had no chance to participate in the battle. This time, I must bring down the arrogance of the Celestial Dragons!” There was obvious anger and unwillingness in Joz’s tone, and it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with his past experiences.
Sitting above, the big and mighty Whitebeard couldn’t help laughing when he heard what Joz said: “Gulala, whatever you want, but remember to make a quick decision.” Whitebeard’s voice was low and majestic, and no one dared to disobey. “If the Celestial Dragons are in danger, the Navy Headquarters will soon send admirals to support us. Although we are not afraid of those admirals, our base cannot withstand their bombing.” Whitebeard continued, revealing a hint of worry in his tone.
He was particularly worried about Dishu’s experimental base, which was an extremely important resource on the island. If it was destroyed in the battle, it would be a huge loss for the entire team.
“If you dare to cause any damage to Dishu’s base, I will not let you off easily.” White Beard glanced sternly at everyone present and warned solemnly to make sure everyone understood the importance of the matter.
After hearing this, Qiao Zi’s mouth twitched slightly, then he patted his chest vigorously and said confidently: “Dad, don’t worry! Even if I am hit by enemy fire, I will never let Brother Di Xiu’s base be in any danger!”
Di Xiu stood aside, watching the scene in front of him, feeling a little helpless. He did not doubt Qiao Zi’s ability, but he felt a little awkward when he heard him call him “big brother”. After all, from the outside, Qiao Zi was older than him.
So, Di Xiu tried to correct him: “Brother Qiao Zi, you can just call me Di Xiu.”
Qiao Zi shook his head and said seriously, “No, no, I lost the bet before, and you have helped me a lot during this period. You deserve to be called ‘big brother’.”
Seeing that Di Xiu seemed to want to speak more, Qiao Zi interrupted him directly and said in a more determined tone: “Brother Di Xiu, don’t say anything more about this. I have already made up my mind.”
Di Xiu was silent for a while, and finally nodded and said, “Okay, since you said so, it’s up to you.”
At this time, Marco stood up and said with a relaxed expression: “If there is nothing else, let’s go.” There was a subtle expectation in his tone, and it can be seen that he was full of confidence in the upcoming action.
“Wait!” Di Xiu quickly picked up his small bag from the side, put it on his back, and said with a firm expression, “I want to go with you too.” Although his voice was not loud, it revealed an unquestionable determination, and it was obvious that he was fully prepared.
“Ah?” Marco looked at Dishu in surprise. He never expected that he would make such a request.
Others also turned their eyes to Di Xiu, their eyes full of concern. Someone couldn’t help but say, “Brother Di Xiu is going too? This is too dangerous.” Everyone knew that this operation was full of risks, so they were naturally worried about Di Xiu’s safety.
“Brother Di Xiu, you are not good at physical skills, what can you do if you go? What if something unexpected happens…” another person also echoed, his tone full of worry.
In their opinion, Di Xiu did not seem to be someone who was good at fighting. Faced with unknown dangers, everyone could not help but worry about him.
However, Di Xiu waved his hand and smiled confidently: “Don’t worry, everyone. With so many of you here, how can I be in danger? And I am not powerless to fight back.”
As he spoke, there was a firm light in Di Xiu’s eyes, as if announcing to everyone that he was no longer the fragile person he used to be.
In fact, during this period of time, Di Xiu’s physical fitness has been greatly improved through automatic training, and he is even stronger than ordinary pirates. More importantly, the martial arts he mastered – the Heaven-Slashing Sword Technique, has also become more powerful as his physical fitness has improved. Now if he encounters ordinary pirates, he can fully protect himself; even if he encounters an admiral-level opponent, he still has so many companions around him to rely on.
031 Such wonderful emotions, wouldn’t it be a pity to kill them now? (Old version)
“Actually,” Di Xiu continued, “I went there this time just to see the outside world. I’ve been staying here for the past few months, and I’m almost suffocated.” His words were full of desire for freedom, allowing everyone present to feel his yearning for the outside world.
After hearing what Di Xiu said, everyone finally understood his idea. Although they were still a little worried, they were also moved by his determination.
In the end, everyone nodded and agreed to let Di Xiu go together.
At this moment, a fragrant breeze blew by, and Waidibei had quietly stood beside Dixiu without anyone noticing. Her appearance surprised everyone, and what surprised everyone even more was that Waidibei’s strength seemed to have improved again!
Faced with this situation, although others had some concerns in their hearts, they could not say anything more. After all, at this critical moment, any unnecessary arguments might affect the morale and efficiency of the team.
So everyone turned their eyes to Whitebeard, waiting for the old man to make the final decision.
“Marco, Ace, Joz,” Whitebeard’s voice was deep and powerful, “You three must protect Di Xiu. If anything happens to him, don’t come back.”
“Yes, Dad!” The three answered in unison, their tone firm and full of determination.
“Don’t worry, Dad. We will do our best to protect Brother Di Xiu’s safety.” Ace added.
“Even if I’m in danger, I will never let anything happen to Brother Di Xiu!” Qiao Zi also quickly expressed his opinion, which was enough to show how much he values ​​Di Xiu.
Hearing these words, Di Xiu smiled slightly, trying to ease the tense atmosphere with a relaxed tone: “Let’s go, it’s not that easy to get into trouble. Let’s just make a quick decision.”
“Okay, let’s go!”
On a small island,
Once upon a time, this was a small and rich country with an incomparably superior natural environment. The fertile soil seemed to contain endless treasures, laying a solid foundation for the prosperity of this land.
At that time, the domestic planting and animal husbandry industries were thriving. In the vast fields, herds of cattle and sheep were leisurely eating green grass. In addition to cattle and sheep, various edible livestock can be seen everywhere in the countryside, forming a vibrant pastoral picture.
However, now all these beautiful scenes have been destroyed by the ravages of war.
The smell of gunpowder filled the air, and the once peaceful and harmonious countryside had now become a desolate ruin.
Everywhere there were people with faces covered with scars and bruises. Their cries of grief continued, filling the broken land. The once solid city walls were blasted to pieces by cannon fire, and the charred ruins seemed to silently tell of the endless suffering and pain brought by the war.
“We really have no money left!” An old man in ragged clothes knelt on the ground helplessly. His hands were shaking as he held the empty purse, his voice full of despair and helplessness.
His eyes were empty and confused, as if he had completely lost hope for his future life and was immersed in endless pain.
“All the money and food that this country has accumulated have been taken away by you!” another villager shouted angrily. His words were filled with deep resentment and unwillingness, an angry accusation of a life that had been plundered.
The wealth they had accumulated through years of hard work was ruthlessly plundered, leaving them with poverty and hunger, forcing them to struggle for survival in despair.
“Please, let my daughter go, I kowtow to you!” A mother also knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face, blurring her vision.
She hugged her daughter tightly, as if she had exhausted all her strength, fearing that her daughter would be taken away from her in the next second. Her voice was trembling, and every word was filled with great and helpless maternal love.
“Bang bang, please, please…” Before the mother could finish her plea, suddenly, a deafening gunshot broke the desperate silence.
The gunshot was like a bolt from the blue, exploding in everyone’s ears and making people terrified.
Then, a sharp, piercing voice full of anger and contempt rang out: “What a bunch of ignorant people, how dare you defy the Celestial Dragons, you all deserve to die!”
A fat and bloated Celestial Dragon, wearing a glass helmet and with a ferocious smile on his face, took out a golden pistol from his waist. The surface of the pistol was inlaid with various gems, which sparkled brightly in the sun, showing his wealth and high status.
His eyes revealed endless arrogance and coldness. In his eyes, those people kneeling on the ground and leaning on each other were like insignificant ants and were not worth his attention at all.
The people’s faces were filled with fear and their eyes were filled with despair and helplessness.
Some hugged their children tightly, trying to use their bodies to build a protective barrier for their children to resist the impending danger; others clasped their hands together, lowered their heads, and kept whispering prayers, hoping that a miracle would happen.
However, all this became a kind of enjoyment in the eyes of the Tianlong man. He seemed to find some twisted pleasure from the fear and despair of these people, and an evil smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The Tianlong man sneered, slowly raised the golden pistol in his hand, and aimed at the crowd in front.
Instantly, the air was filled with a suffocating atmosphere of tension. Everyone held their breath, as if time had stopped and they could only wait for the judgment of fate.
At this moment, the whole world seemed to be left with only the cold muzzle of the gun and the lives that were about to be taken away.
“Lord Degu, would you like me to take care of them all?” The attendant in a white suit asked the Celestial Dragon respectfully. His voice was flat without any emotion, and it was obvious that he had long been accustomed to this cruel scene and was numb to it.
“Not yet,” Degusheng spoke slowly, his tone revealing a chilling calmness and cruelty. “I want to feel the fear and despair of these people. Such wonderful emotions, wouldn’t it be a pity to kill them now?”
As he spoke, his eyes slowly scanned the crowd and finally landed on a mother who was crying while holding her child.
032 If you want to kill our vice-captain, first ask my fists if they agree! (Old version)
The helpless look in his mother’s eyes was like a sharp needle that pierced his heart. But strangely, this pain made him feel an unprecedented excitement.
Saint Degu played with the golden pistol in his hand, and the black muzzle was pointed at the terrified woman for a while, and then turned to the innocent child.
Every time the gun pointed in a certain direction, there would be a burst of shrill screams from the crowd. To him, these screams were like a beautiful piece of music, which made him immersed in the pleasure of controlling the fate of others.
He thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being in control of everything, and the smile on his lips became more evil.
“Hahaha…” After a burst of laughter, Degu Sheng finally got tired of playing. “It’s really boring, just kill all these unruly people.” He said coldly, his tone full of disdain, as if those lives were nothing more than insignificant ants in his eyes.
“Yes, Your Excellency Degu Saint.” The follower responded immediately, then turned around and conveyed the order to his subordinates.
Suddenly, a strong smell of blood filled the air and the whole scene became extremely tragic.
However, to Degu Sheng, all this was just a normal scene in his daily life.
The man in the white suit walked forward step by step with a steady and cold pace. Every step he took seemed to step heavily on the hearts of the frightened people, making them feel even more terrified and desperate.
His followers followed closely behind him, with cruel smiles on their faces and their eyes revealing their desire for the coming killing.
The air was filled with a suffocating tension, and everyone knew clearly that what awaited them would be a ruthless death.
“You ignorant ants,” the man in the white suit said contemptuously, “it is the greatest honor of your life to die at the hands of the great Celestial Dragons.” His words were full of arrogance and disdain. In his heart, the lives of these civilians were worthless.
After saying this, he was ready to pull the trigger and end it all.
At this critical moment,
Suddenly, there was a shout: “Musketeers! Fire!”
Next,
I saw countless dazzling flames falling from the sky like a meteor shower, hitting the weapons in the hands of those who were about to shoot with incredible precision.
Accompanied by a crisp sound of metal collision, the guns in everyone’s hands fell to the ground with a dull sound.
This sudden change shocked everyone present, but also indirectly saved many innocent lives.
“Who?!!!” The man in the white suit turned around quickly and his eyes fell on the huge pirate ship behind him.
The familiar pirate flag on the ship came into his sight. The cross skull on the flag and the eye-catching white beard logo in the middle made him recognize it instantly –
“Whitebeard Pirates???”
His eyes were full of disbelief as he looked at the familiar faces in front of him:
Marco, the second in command of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Fire Fist Ace,
Diamond Joz,
Ice Witch Whitebe and more!
These are the backbone of the Whitebeard Pirates.
What puzzled him was that Whitebeard did not appear.
At this time, there was a young man standing between them, whom he did not recognize. But judging from his position, this young man was definitely an important figure in the Whitebeard Pirates.
“CP0, what are you hesitating about? Hurry up and kill all these untouchables. I feel annoyed just looking at them!” Degu Sheng frowned and urged impatiently.
He felt that these CP members were becoming more and more disobedient, and thought to himself that he would give them a good lesson when he returned this time.
“… Lord De… Lord Degu, they… they are from the Whitebeard Pirates. You should go first. Saving your life is the most important thing.” The man in the white suit did not want to have a conflict with these pirates.
After all, they came to the first half of the Grand Line this time, and considering the military situation here, they did not send generals to accompany them for protection.
If a fight breaks out now, the unarmed Celestial Dragons will definitely be in danger of their lives, either death or injury, and they cannot afford either of these two outcomes.
When Degusheng heard that CP asked him to escape, he became furious.
“Assholes, I am the great God of Creation. These ants don’t even kneel down to me. They all deserve to die!”
“I now order you to kill them all immediately!”
Hearing this, the man in the white suit looked extremely unhappy, but he forced himself not to get angry. He just turned his back and signaled to his other companion with his eyes.
The other companions immediately understood what the captain meant, and took out their emergency Den Den Mushi and pressed the distress button.
This Den Den Mushi will send out a distress signal to all the surrounding navies and transmit their location information.
As long as the navy receives the order, they must stop all tasks at hand and rush to support as soon as possible!
In this tense moment,
Suddenly, a shrill scream broke the deadlock.
I don’t know when, Di Xiu has come in front of the Tianlong man, and is now stepping on him and trampling on his face with his feet.
“Damn it, Tianlong Pig, I have always disliked you guys when I was watching anime. You have ruined a girl as good as Stella. It’s so infuriating! I have to teach you a lesson today!”
Di Xiu kicked the opponent in the face one after another without mercy.
The man in the white suit and everyone around him were stunned by this sudden scene.
They stood there stupidly for a moment, their minds blank, completely at a loss as to what to do.
With a click!
The glass cover used by the Celestial Dragons to isolate the air was kicked into pieces by Di Xiu.
“Ah!!! Ah!!!”
“Help…Help!!!”
“save……”
Seeing that the other party still had the strength to call for help, Di Xiu kicked even harder.
“Kick you to death, you bastard!”
After kicking more than ten times in a row, the stunned man in the white suit and other followers finally came to their senses.
“Stop!!!” With a roar, they turned around and were about to kill Di Xiu.
“Oh? If you want to kill our deputy captain, first ask my fists if they agree!” Joz rushed forward and stood in front of the man in the white suit. His eyes revealed a firm determination that left no room for doubt.
He clenched the five fingers of his right hand slightly, and the transparent shock field instantly wrapped around his right hand, as if forming an invisible protective barrier around him.
Then, he punched out suddenly!
“Shock!” With a low and powerful roar, a powerful vibration force burst out from his fist, like an invisible shock wave, rushing straight towards the man in the white suit.
This force not only shook the air, but also made people around feel an irresistible sense of oppression.
033 Let’s wait a little longer, maybe there will be some unexpected gains (old version)
“What?!!” The man in the white suit had never expected to be attacked like this. He was caught off guard and hit in the chest. His body was like a kite with a broken string, and was violently blown away.
After rolling several times in the air, he managed to stabilize his body, but an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
Isn’t the other party Diamond Joz?
Isn’t he famous for his invincible defense? But what kind of power was that just now?
How could I be knocked away by just one punch?
Why does the feeling of the air being cracked seem a bit like the power of Whitebeard’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit?
These questions kept circling in his mind, making it difficult for him to accept what was happening before his eyes.
Qiaozi stood there, staring coldly at the man in the white suit, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
The scene was in chaos!
The man in the white suit struggled to stand up and saw Joz flexing his wrists and looking at him with a grin.
“What? Do you think my punch has decades of power?”
“……” The man in the white suit did not answer, his heart was full of shock and confusion.
Afterwards, the man in the white suit discovered to his horror that his companions were stopped one by one by the members of the Whitebeard Pirates and were unable to come to support him.
And that seemingly ordinary young man was still mercilessly abusing Lord Degu.
Judging from his actions, if he is not stopped immediately, Lord Degu Saint will probably lose his life soon due to his serious injuries.
Once Lord Degu Saint dies, this group of people will undoubtedly face a catastrophe.
“Damn it! What kind of power was that just now!” the man in the white suit shouted in horror.
“Oh? You mean this?” Joz clenched his fists again, and the shock field appeared again.
“Yes, that’s it! How do you have Whitebeard’s ability!” The man in the white suit confirmed again that this was the power of Whitebeard’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit!
“Hahaha, we have to thank our deputy captain Di Xiuge!” Qiaozi looked at the shock field in his hand and said happily, “Forget it, this is a scientific matter. You won’t understand even if I tell you.”
Man in white suit: “…………”
“Don’t waste time. I just threw that punch casually. I’m going to take this punch seriously.”
Qiao Zi stared at the other person with a firm gaze, and his tone was full of unquestionable momentum.
He slowly stretched out his right hand, as if groping for something in the air. Suddenly, his arm grabbed forward, and the air in front of him seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force, making a crackling sound.
Qiao Zi’s mouth curled up into a sneer: “Hehe!”
Then, he pulled his hand back suddenly, as if he was pulling a taut bowstring. With this movement, the sound of the air tearing became more intense, and huge cracks spread from the palm of his hand, as if all the air in front of him was compressed into his punch.
“Die!”
Following this roar, Joz suddenly loosened his grip. For a moment, the sound of air vibrations continued to be heard, like an energy wave that was compressed to the extreme and then suddenly released, generating a huge impact force.
With a loud bang, the man in the white suit didn’t have time to react at all before he was knocked out by an invisible powerful force!
His body drew a long parabola in the air, blood gushed out of his mouth, and his clothes were torn into pieces by this force.
Finally, he stopped only after heavily crashing into dozens of large trees that required three people to hug. His head tilted and he fainted, and his life or death was unknown.
“Brother Joz, you’re becoming more and more proficient in using dad’s abilities.” After dealing with the opponent in front of him, Ace came to Joz and congratulated him with a smile.
“Hahaha, it’s just average. I only inherited one third of my father’s abilities.” Joz said modestly.
At this time, an even more shrill scream was heard, and Degu Sheng, who had been beaten and kicked by Di Xiu, finally fainted.
“That’s not enough?” Di Xiu said a little disappointedly. He felt that he had not fought enough.
“This guy Di Xiu is too weak to handle. Let’s just get rid of him.”
“Don’t worry. Based on past experience, as long as a dragon pig appears, there is a high probability that a general will appear nearby.
Let’s wait a little longer, maybe we can get something unexpected.”
If it were in the past, they would have run away if they heard someone say such things.
The combat power of an admiral is not something that can be easily dealt with. If you provoke them, not only will you be defeated, but you will also get into trouble. In short, the Whitebeard Pirates generally do not want to confront the admirals head-on.
But the situation is different now.
They even looked forward to fighting the general every day and collecting some of the general’s blood to improve their own strength.
“Brother Dixiu, is what you said false?” Qiaozi looked suspicious. “Last time you said that Teach would come to Gaya Island, but we have been waiting for almost two months and haven’t even seen his shadow.”
Di Xiu also found this matter very strange, but when he thought about Teach’s character, he figured it out.
“Teach has always been suspicious by nature and would definitely not put himself in a dangerous situation.
Maybe he has already arrived at Gaya Island, and is hiding in some hidden place, secretly observing the situation here.”
Ace nodded, his expression a little solemn, as if he was lost in memories.
“Brother Dixiu is right. I have been paying attention to Teach before Thatch became famous.
That guy is really cautious in what he does. No matter what he does, he will think of a way out in advance and will never put himself in danger. “
Qiao Zi said helplessly: “Okay, I still choose to believe Di Xiuge.”
Just as Joz finished speaking.
The entire space seemed to suddenly stop for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, an extremely dazzling golden light streaked across the sky like a meteor, instantly attracting everyone’s attention.
Then, countless golden balls of light emitting soft light quickly gathered from all directions. These balls of light quickly rotated in the air and merged with each other, gradually outlining the outline of a human figure.
As the light grew brighter, the figure made of light became clearer and clearer, and finally it was fully revealed – it was Admiral Kizaru!
He quietly floated in the air, exuding a powerful sense of oppression that only a general could have. Under this sense of oppression, the whole world seemed to have quieted down.
“Whitebeard Pirates?”
“Kizaru?”
“Hiss… Brother Di Xiu is so amazing that he actually attracted a great general!”
Joz couldn’t help but gasp.
034 Are all the young people nowadays so arrogant… Have you ever experienced the feeling of being kicked by light? (Old version)
At this time, Kizaru’s eyes fell on the pig lying on the ground. He frowned slightly and rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.
“The pirates are really rude. They beat Lord Degu into this state. It’s really terrible.”
Kizaru soon noticed Dishu standing next to Degu Sheng. His pupils contracted instantly because he saw the blood stains on Dishu’s fist and immediately understood what was going on.
“Did you injure Lord Degusheng?”
“Yes, it’s just a pig.”
Kizaru was silent for a moment and said nothing.
Seeing this, the others secretly admired him. As expected of the vice-captain, although his strength might not be top-notch, his aura was not weak at all when facing the admiral.
Kizaru’s face turned very ugly, he felt that his dignity was greatly challenged.
To blatantly humiliate the Celestial Dragons in front of so many people was undoubtedly a severe blow to the authority of the Navy.
He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself, but there was still a gleam of anger in his eyes.
“You are really bold young man. I don’t even know your name.” There was a hint of temptation and warning in Kizaru’s tone. He wanted to regain the initiative on the field in this way.
Di Xiu slowly raised his head, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, staring straight into Kizaru’s eyes, as if he wanted to see through his heart through these eyes.
At this moment, the air seemed to freeze, all the sounds around them disappeared, leaving only the silent confrontation between the two people.
“I am the vice-captain of the Whitebeard Pirates – Di Xiu!”
Dishu spoke out his identity word by word, each word full of power and determination, as if announcing his existence to the world. His voice echoed throughout the space, allowing everyone present to feel his powerful and unquestionable aura.
Hearing this, Kizaru couldn’t help but be slightly stunned, obviously shocked by the news.
As one of the admirals of the navy, he was well aware of the situation of various forces at sea, but he had never heard that the Whitebeard Pirates had a vice-captain.
This sudden information forced him to re-examine the young man in front of him, and he also began to think about the secrets that might be hidden behind this.
For a moment, the whole scene fell into a brief silence, with only the rustling sound of the breeze blowing through the leaves breaking the tranquility.
However, Marco’s subsequent confirmation forced Kizaru to believe it.
Marco took a step forward and cleverly stood between Di Xiu and Kizaru, forming an invisible protective barrier.
Standing in this position, if Kizaru suddenly attacked Dishu, he was sure that he could react quickly and successfully stop the opponent.
This action not only reflects his protection for Di Xiu, but also demonstrates his strong strength and sense of responsibility as a member of the Whitebeard Pirates.
“That’s right,” Marco said in a firm and powerful voice, “Di Xiu is the new vice-captain of our Whitebeard Pirates.”
Hearing this, Kizaru secretly remembered the name “Dixiu”.
Just as he was about to say something, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
Combined with a series of recent events, especially the unusually dazzling golden light on Gaya Island and Aokiji’s injury, a bold guess gradually formed in his mind.
So, he asked tentatively: “Vice Captain Di Xiu, I want to ask, are the recent changes in the Whitebeard Pirates related to you?
For example, Ace gained the power of the dual fruit, and the golden light that appeared on Gaya Island, etc….”
Kizaru stared closely at Di Xiu’s eyes and facial expressions, trying to capture some useful information from his reaction.
But what he didn’t expect was that in the face of such a direct and sharp question, Di Xiu was not panicked at all and did not try to cover up.
Di Xiu did the exact opposite, without hiding anything at all.
“Okay, I won’t hide it from you anymore. I did it. What do you want to do?”
Kizaru was silent again.
Now that things have come to this, there is no need to test it further.
“Are all the young people nowadays so arrogant…Have you ever experienced the feeling of being kicked by light?”
After saying that, Kizaru raised his right foot, and dazzling golden light quickly gathered, the light became brighter and brighter, like a rising sun.
The light was so bright that it was impossible to look directly at it, as if it was going to penetrate the entire space.
Immediately afterwards, his body disappeared from the spot in an instant and rushed towards Di Xiu!
“Humph! Want to make a move on our vice-captain? You have to get past me, Joz, first!”
Qiaozi’s voice rang out in the air. He appeared in front of Di Xiu without knowing when, and his right arm instantly turned into countless diamonds, flashing with a cold luster.
He was like an indestructible barrier, standing firmly between Kizaru and Di Xiu.
“Bang!”
Kizaru’s kick landed solidly on Joz’s diamond-like right arm, but was completely blocked by him.
The powerful impact instantly raised countless dust, which spread out in a circle with the two people as the center, forming a huge dust fog circle.
Everyone around held their breath nervously and stared at the scene.
When the dust slowly settled, everyone discovered that Joz’s feet hadn’t moved even a step!
He still stood there steadily, the diamond on his right arm still shining, as if the kick just now was nothing to him.
Kizaru has returned to his original position with a look of surprise on his face.
Obviously, he didn’t expect that Joz could block his attack so easily.
This scene shocked everyone present.
When did Joz become so strong? Not only was his defense amazing, but his reaction was also so fast.
“Huh?” Kizaru let out a puzzled sound, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant. When did he become so weak?
Even if this kick didn’t hurt the opponent, at least it made him take a few steps back!
“Hahaha, Old Man Huang, try my punch!”
Joz took a step sideways and twisted his waist 270 degrees. His movements were as fast as lightning and extremely precise.
The power that was just offset seemed to be under his control again at this moment. Then, a powerful energy wave emanated from him, and the shock field was instantly activated!
035 The general is too powerful, I can’t beat him! (Old version)
“Shock!” With a low roar, a layer of white transparent shock field enveloped Joz’s entire body. The power was so strong that it was shocking.
This force is not only extremely powerful, but also carries an awe-inspiring majesty. The air around it seems to tremble under the influence of this power.
Seeing this scene, Kizaru widened his eyes, his face full of surprise and disbelief.
“What!”
He couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, because he clearly saw that a white transparent light was emanating from Joz’s hand – that was the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit!
This ability was originally only possessed by the legendary Whitebeard, but now it actually appears in Joz?
In an instant, a terrible thought flashed through Kizaru’s mind: “You have also become a dual-fruit ability user?”
However, there was no time to wait for Joz’s answer.
The unique impact force of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was like a raging torrent, unstoppable and instantly shattered Kizaru’s body!
With a loud bang, Kizaru’s body turned into countless flashing golden lights, splashing in the air.
These golden lights reassembled not far away and turned back to their original appearance.
He stared at Joz in shock, his eyes full of disbelief.
At the beginning, when Aokiji mentioned the user of dual fruit ability, he was dismissive, thinking that it was just an excuse Aokiji made for his failure.
But everything that happened before his eyes completely overturned his cognition.
It’s not just Joz who possesses the ability of the dual fruit, perhaps everyone present has such power!
This possibility made him feel unprecedented fear and anxiety.
If this is true, then the enemy they are facing is much stronger and more dangerous than they imagined.
“Hahaha, Old Man Huang, how did my punch taste? Using the opponent’s force to counter attack is the essence of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.”
Kizaru’s face was terribly gloomy. He knew in his heart that it would not be easy to rescue Degu Sheng today.
Even if he couldn’t save this guy, he wouldn’t be held too responsible. After all, Degu Sheng was just a marginalized noble among the Celestial Dragons.
Otherwise, how could he have fallen to the point of personally collecting the gold from heaven?
Moreover, Kizaru felt that his mission was basically completed. He found out that the biggest change in the Whitebeard Pirates was due to a young man named Di Xiu.
This young man seemed to have mastered the method that could allow people to become dual fruit users.
etc!
A thought suddenly flashed through Kizaru’s mind: Could he capture this young man?
If I could successfully capture him and get from him the secret of how to become a dual-fruit user, I could retire tomorrow and enjoy a peaceful life!
In the days to come, you can enjoy the happiness of retirement life.
“Kizaru, don’t think I’m unaware of the little things in your mind.” Di Xiu ruthlessly punctured Kizaru’s fantasy.
“Want to save this fat pig? No way!”
As he spoke, Di Xiu put his fingers together, like a sharp sword. A seemingly slender, yet extremely sharp sword energy quietly formed between his two fingers.
Although this sword energy is small in size, it exudes a terrifying aura, as if everything in the world will be easily cut in half if it dares to block it.
Just one glance at the invisible force can make one’s eyes hurt, as if their vision is about to be torn apart by the sword energy.
“Go to hell!” Di Xiu’s voice was as cold as ice, revealing an unquestionable firmness. He slashed at De Gusheng’s neck.
The action was as fast as lightning, and it was over before anyone could see it clearly.
However, when the sword energy passed through Degu Sheng’s neck, strangely, no blood flowed out.
Then, in the shocked gazes of everyone, Degusheng’s body suddenly stiffened, and then slowly fell down – he died, and his life came to an end.
Everything happened so suddenly that the people around didn’t even have time to react before it was over.
Degu Sheng is dead!
Huang Yuan fell silent, his face becoming more and more ugly. He frowned, and couldn’t figure out what kind of weird method Di Xiu had just used.
“Are you also a devil fruit user?” Kizaru couldn’t help but ask.
Before Di Xiu could answer, Joz laughed and taunted.
“Our vice-captain is not a person with special abilities. On the contrary, he is just an ordinary person.”
“How about it, Kizaru, are you shocked and surprised?”
“Now that all the Tianlongs are dead, why don’t you just get out of here?”
Kizaru looked at the group of people in front of him, his eyes flickering constantly, and he was thinking quickly about how to deal with it.
He was weighing whether to take Di Xiu away by force, or simply get rid of him here.
At this moment, Joz secretly winked at Di Xiu, suggesting that he was ready for action.
Di Xiu understood and nodded, then suddenly shouted and turned and ran.
“No more fighting, no more fighting, the general is too powerful, I can’t beat him!”
Di Xiu’s sudden escape instantly disrupted Kizaru’s thoughts, and he had to react immediately.
Kizaru gritted his teeth and fought!
“Want to run? Can you outrun the light?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Kizaru’s body turned into a dazzling light and was about to disappear.
At this critical moment, five people from the Whitebeard Pirates rushed out. Together with Marco and Joz, there were seven people in total, blocking Kizaru’s way from all directions.
“Use your ultimate move!”
“Shock!”
The seven people simultaneously activated their respective Tremor-Tremor Fruit abilities and launched fierce attacks towards the center point from different directions.
In an instant, a strong tremor was felt in the air, and the entire space seemed to be shaking under this powerful force.
The void around him seemed to be torn apart by a pair of invisible giant hands, making continuous “cracking” sounds.
The central area surrounded by the crowd was covered with dense cracks. It was the explosion sound caused by the air being forcibly squeezed, which made people shudder.
“Cough cough…!!!” Kizaru’s figure was pushed out by the huge impact force and directly changed back to his original form from the natural state.
His eyes were filled with shock and confusion. He looked at everything around him in disbelief, his heart full of doubt and fear.
“There are so many users of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit!” Kizaru muttered to himself, with a slight tremor in his voice.
036 He will break out of the ice sooner or later anyway, why don’t we give him a hand? (Old version)
Then, Kizaru spurted out two more mouthfuls of blood. The attack just now almost left him seriously injured.
His body kept switching between the natural state and the physical state, trying to relieve the pain. However, this frequent switching caused him to be attacked many times.
Every transition was accompanied by excruciating pain. The enormous pressure made him feel more uncomfortable than ever before, and he finally couldn’t help but spit out several mouthfuls of blood.
“Yata Mirror!” Kizaru slowly stretched out his right hand, and countless golden spots of light began to gather in his palm.
These light spots were like summoned elves, quickly gathering together to form a dazzling light. This light was as smooth and bright as a mirror, reflecting the surrounding scene.
As time passed, this light gradually accumulated into a powerful energy, like a sun about to explode.
Suddenly, a strong beam of light shot out from his palm and shot straight towards the targets around him.
This beam of light not only has extremely strong penetrating power, but can also produce refraction and rebound effects after coming into contact with an object.
Kizaru cleverly used this characteristic to guide the light beam in different directions, forming an intricate light track.
This track of light twists and turns, running through the entire battlefield.
It not only connects various key points on the battlefield, but also provides Kizaru with an excellent movement route.
With the help of this track, Kizaru’s body instantly disappeared from the spot, leaving only a faint afterimage.
With the ability to move at the speed of light, Kizaru can cover great distances in a very short time and appear anywhere he wants to go.
The speed was so fast that it was simply astonishing, as if he had transcended the limitations of time and space.
With the help of this move, Kizaru quickly flexed his body and tried to escape from the blockade of the crowd.
Suddenly, a biting cold air hit without warning, and Kizaru couldn’t help but shiver. The chill seemed to penetrate deep into his soul.
Immediately afterwards, three figures moved as quickly as the wind, forming a perfect triangle formation in an instant, blocking all of Kizaru’s retreat routes once again.
“Ice Age!”
Following three deafening shouts, three powerful men with the ability of the ice fruit released their ultimate skills almost at the same time.
A strong and pure cold air suddenly burst out from their bodies, and the cold air spread rapidly as if it had life. In the blink of an eye, everything within a radius of dozens of meters around them was frozen into an indestructible ice sculpture.
There was a cold feeling in the air, as if time had stopped at this moment.
“This is… Aokiji’s ability?!” Kizaru was completely stunned by the scene before him, his heart filled with disbelief and shock.
While he was still immersed in surprise, the surrounding environment had undergone earth-shaking changes. The entire space was covered with a thick layer of ice and snow, forming a huge, crystal clear square ice block.
In this cage of absolute zero, escaping is harder than climbing to heaven.
Kizaru was frozen solid in the ice, like a transparent sculpture. Only his eyes could move, revealing his inner resentment and anger.
For a moment, it seemed that he was unable to break free from this thick layer of ice.
When the others saw this scene, they couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. However, this relief was only temporary, and their attention was still fixed on Kizaru, not daring to relax at all.
“Hahaha, I didn’t expect that we actually captured a great general alive!” Joz smiled foolishly. This record was enough to make people proud in the entire ocean. His laughter echoed in the air, full of pride and excitement.
However, Marco remained highly alert at all times, knowing clearly that it was far from the time to relax.
“Joz, just be happy, Kizaru may break out of the ice at any time.” Marco reminded seriously.
He knew that even though Kizaru was frozen, his strength was still not to be underestimated. Once he found an opportunity, he would probably launch a counterattack in an instant.
“I know. I’m just satisfying my desire to talk.” Although Qiao Zi said this, his eyes became more determined.
Joz also understood that Kizaru was not so easy to catch, and the battle was still long. They had to stay alert at all times.
To prevent Kizaru from making any unusual movements, he simply walked directly to the huge block of ice and grinned at Kizaru inside.
“He’ll be able to break through the ice sooner or later anyway, so why don’t we give him a hand.”
“hey-hey.”
A transparent white force field condensed between Joz’s hands, as if the molecules in the air were controlled by this force.
He grabbed forward suddenly, and the space around him seemed to be distorted. Then, a crack appeared in the void, as if the real world was torn open.
“Kill him while he’s sick! Brothers, attack together!” Joz shouted loudly, his voice full of fighting passion.
When the other users of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit heard this, they immediately understood Joz’s intention – they wanted to take advantage of Kizaru’s temporary inability to move and give him a fatal blow.
“Captain Joz, here I come!” a team member responded excitedly, with a gleam in his eyes.
“Count me in!” Another team member followed closely behind, already eager to join the battle.
“It’s so cool to defeat the general, I’ve wanted to do this for a long time!” someone shouted excitedly, his tone full of anticipation for the battle.
“I used all my strength in this punch!” Someone said half-jokingly, but his seriousness was evident.
All the users of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit gathered around, excitement written all over their faces.
They clenched their fists, and the strength in their bodies was rapidly gathering.
With Joz’s order: “Attack!” the seven people used their strongest moves almost at the same time.
“Shoot the bull across the mountain!”
“I’ll hit you!”
“Super Shock Punch!”
Everyone gave their own moves different names, and at this moment, they all shouted them out at the top of their lungs.
The whole scene was so spectacular that even the air seemed to become tense.
At that moment when the cold wind was as sharp as a knife, Kizaru’s heart seemed to be grasped tightly by an invisible big hand, and it suddenly rose to his throat, and his whole body tensed up.
His body was sealed tightly in a huge block of ice, unable to move at all. His normally extremely powerful abilities were now completely ineffective, as if they were under a spell.
Just one attack from the Tremor-Tremor Fruit had already made him feel like he was about to be overwhelmed. And now, a group of enemies were simultaneously launching a violent storm-like attack on him. The huge pressure was like a mountain pressing down on him, almost making it difficult for him to breathe.
“It’s all over now!”
037 Can we finally make a move? We are so impatient waiting! (Old version)
At this critical moment, a loud noise broke the suffocating silence on the battlefield.
“Crack…bang!”
With the explosion of this powerful force, the originally indestructible ice layer instantly collapsed and turned into countless fragments that flew in all directions.
There was a chilling atmosphere in the air, a powerful energy that seemed to be able to tear apart everything in the world and shock the soul.
Just when this terrifying force was about to touch Kizaru, his heart suddenly tightened, as if he had a strong premonition that disaster was about to strike.
Then, there was a dull thud, and Kizaru fell heavily from midair like a kite with a broken string. At the same time, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, drawing a dazzling arc in the air, dyeing the surrounding air red.
When he finally struggled to stand up again, he looked exhausted and in a very miserable state.
There was still blood at the corner of his mouth that had not yet dried, and his chest was heaving violently. Every breath seemed to be using up all his strength, as if he was making a final struggle with death.
It was obvious that Kizaru was in a very difficult situation at the moment. However, even so, his eyes were still shining with a thoughtful look, and his brain was working rapidly.
“These guys are so scary.”
Suddenly, Kizaru’s body underwent an amazing change. His body began to emit a dazzling light, which was like a star about to explode, continuously emitting endless energy.
Along with the flash of light, Kizaru’s body instantly disappeared from the spot, leaving only a lightning-like afterimage across the air.
His speed was so fast that it was beyond imagination, and people’s naked eyes could not catch the trajectory of his movements at all.
Just when everyone thought he had disappeared into thin air, Kizaru suddenly appeared in mid-air with his palms facing down.
I saw countless light balls condensed in his palms, and each light ball emitted a strong energy fluctuation, as if it would explode in the next second, releasing a devastating force.
The number of these light balls was incredibly large. They were densely arranged in the air, forming a huge and shocking array of light balls.
Each ball of light contains enormous power. Once it hits the target, it will instantly burst out with powerful energy, enough to blow the target to ashes.
However, Kizaru did not stop there. He continued to condense more light balls, preparing to launch a more violent attack!
“Yashakani no Magatama!”
This time, Kizaru was really irritated. Di Xiu could clearly feel that the light ball formed by the Yasakani no Magatama released by Kizaru this time was much more powerful than the one he saw in the anime Marineford War.
I saw countless balls of light falling from the sky like a torrential rain, attacking all directions indiscriminately.
Not only were there a huge number of these light balls, but each one contained extremely powerful energy. They streaked bright rays of light across the sky, as if they were about to tear the entire space apart.
Under the impact of this powerful force, the ground and surrounding buildings seemed extremely fragile. Huge holes appeared on the ground one after another, and dust flew all over the sky, blocking out the sun.
The sound of each light ball explosion was deafening, and the earth seemed to be shaking with the roar.
Di Xiu felt an unprecedented sense of oppression, and couldn’t help but sigh in his heart: This is the strength of the general…
“Tsk tsk tsk… Can we finally take action? We are getting so impatient waiting!”
“That old man Kizaru’s attack is just like drizzle, not even enough to tickle us.”
“The so-called general is nothing more than this.”
At this time, three people walked out slowly from the back of the crowd. They walked at a relaxed pace, as if the fierce battle and tense atmosphere around them had nothing to do with them, and looked at the rain of light balls that were about to fall from the sky with a leisurely look.
“Mythical Beast Species: Phoenix Form!”
Three huge phoenixes soared into the sky from the ground, their huge bodies were shocking. The phoenixes were burning with flames of various colors, which seemed to contain healing power, making them look more majestic in the air.
The wings of the three phoenixes are connected in pairs, forming a unique triangular structure, with flames swirling in between, and the whole scene is magnificent.
What is even more amazing is that when the wings of these three phoenixes are connected to each other, they form a huge protective barrier that firmly blocks everyone’s heads.
This protective shield made of phoenixes is not only spectacular in appearance, but also has extremely strong defensive capabilities and can withstand various attacks from the outside world.
At this moment, balls of light fell from the sky and ruthlessly hit the wings of the phoenixes.
Every impact was accompanied by a loud explosion and dazzling light, which seemed to illuminate the entire world.
However, despite the immense power of the light ball, the wings of the phoenixes showed amazing recovery capabilities.
Whenever holes were smashed into the wings, the damaged parts would quickly recover and continue to resist Kizaru’s light ball attacks.
This fierce battle lasted for a long time, and the phoenixes became more and more courageous, showing no signs of defeat.
Kizaru’s face turned very ugly. He never expected that these guys were so difficult to deal with. His attacks had no effect on them at all.
“You are simply cheating!” Kizaru shouted angrily.
“Hahaha, Kizaru, don’t think about leaving easily today.” Joz mocked from below, his tone full of pride and provocation.
However, Kizaru was not angered by Joz’s words, but instead behaved unusually calmly.
He didn’t care about Jozi’s provocation at all, and just responded calmly: “Jozi, your provocation has no effect on me.”
Although Kizaru appeared calm on the surface, most of his attention was actually focused on Di Xiu.
He quietly controlled a large part of the light ball and launched a fierce attack towards Dishu’s location.
Even though a part of the light ball was offset by the wings of the phoenix, the light ball behind took advantage of the time when the wings recovered, passed through the hole and continued to approach Dishu.
Kizaru knew very well that his target had always been Di Xiu!
“Danger!”
Joz’s angry roar echoed in the air, and he rushed towards Di Xiu, while his body turned into an extremely hard diamond form.
But it was too late.
038 This time we have gained a lot, let’s go home! (Old version)
Di Xiu was frightened by this sudden change. The hairs on his body stood up instantly and a strong sense of life and death crisis surged in his heart.
At this critical moment, he had no time to think. Almost out of instinct, he instantly activated the martial arts he had practiced for a long time!
“Heaven-Slashing Sword Technique!!”
He put his fingers together to form a sword, and almost at the same time, seven or eight sharp sword energies instantly appeared around his body, slashing towards the incoming light balls like lightning.
The light ball was instantly split into two by the sword energy and flew to both sides. When they touched the ground, they caused a violent explosion, and the deafening sound resounded all around.
However, there were too many light balls. Even though Di Xiu tried his best to swing his sword, there were still sporadic light points that touched his body, causing a series of explosions.
boom!
There was a loud bang, and the place where Di Xiu was was covered by a large amount of dust. His vision became blurred, and his life or death became unknown. The entire battlefield fell into a dead silence in an instant.
“Di Xiu brother!”
“First Captain!”
At this time, Joz also arrived, and he punched the ball of light shooting from the air again and again.
Those who possessed the power of the Phoenix Fruit and covered the sky were furious when they saw their vice-captain was injured. They did not expect that the great admiral Kizaru would be so insidious. They did not have time to curse, and turned around and overlapped their wings to firmly protect Di Xiu.
“Alas…” Kizaru sighed slightly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He looked at the invisible but extremely sharp sword energy beside Di Xiu and couldn’t help but feel surprised. “Such a young swordsman? But this situation seems a little bit wrong…”
The Di Xiu in front of him looked thin and weak, and he completely lacked the aura and physique of a powerful swordsman.
This appearance formed a sharp contrast with the powerful sword energy emanating from him, making it hard to believe that there was any connection between the two.
However,
Kizaru knew in his heart that even a true swordsman would be seriously injured if hit head-on by his Yasakani no Magatama!
“Ahem, I’m fine.”
The dust gradually cleared, and Dishu walked out of the ruins after the explosion, coughing violently. His clothes were covered with dust and debris, but he did not seem to have suffered any serious injuries.
He immediately winked at Joz, his eyes revealing a hint of urgency.
“Huh?” Joz was a little puzzled at first, then he looked at Di Xiu carefully twice, and muttered to himself: Was the deputy captain really injured in the explosion, or was his acting too realistic?
However, it seems that he is not seriously injured. Should we continue with our plan?
Just when Joz was confused, Kizaru suddenly spoke, interrupting their thoughts.
“Di Xiu, the vice-captain of the Whitebeard Pirates…” Kizaru stretched out his voice and looked at Di Xiu seriously, as if he wanted to imprint his appearance deeply in his mind, “I will remember you.”
After saying this, his body instantly turned into countless points of light, like twinkling stars, and then disappeared into the air.
When the others saw this scene, they all breathed a sigh of relief with some regret.
“Why is it so difficult to capture a general? We acted according to the plan, but we tried so hard and still couldn’t catch him.”
“That’s not the case. The main reason is that Kizaru’s fruit ability is too powerful. He is the fastest among the three admirals.”
“The Pikachu-Pikachu Fruit. Hehe, maybe we can become users of the Pikachu-Pikachu Fruit in the future!”
“Hahahahahaha, that’s right.”
“This is all thanks to the deputy captain’s plan. Deputy Captain Di Xiu is amazing!”
“Okay, stop praising me and go collect Kizaru’s blood.”
Di Xiu laughed and scolded these flatterers. Before this, he had analyzed with everyone the possible situation of encountering Kizaru.
Because after Aokiji was injured and returned to the Marine Headquarters, given Sengoku’s character, he would definitely send another general to investigate the situation. Akainu couldn’t come out, so it could only be Kizaru.
Di Xiu has been coveting Kizaru’s Pika Pika Nomi for a long time.
Not only does this fruit allow a person to be extremely fast, but the laser cannon also has a large damage radius and long range!
More importantly, it can hit targets accurately, which is very practical!
Afterwards, he and everyone else worked out a plan to encircle and suppress Kizaru, but unfortunately Kizaru escaped in the end.
But it doesn’t matter, at least they got Kizaru’s blood!
“Cough cough…” Di Xiu coughed violently, feeling a dull pain in his chest.
The aftermath of the explosion just now still caused him considerable damage, shaking his internal organs as if they were churning.
Fortunately, his physique has become much stronger than before. If he had just come through, he would have been killed by the aftermath of the explosion!
When Huai Dibei saw Di Xiu’s appearance, she immediately walked forward and asked with concern: “Di Xiu, are you okay?” As she spoke, she gently took Di Xiu’s arm and placed it on her fair neck.
This action was gentle and caring, making Di Xiu feel warm in his heart.
Di Xiu forced a smile and replied, “It’s okay. I was just hit by the aftermath of the explosion. I got a little out of breath. I’ll be fine after a while.”
But Whitey didn’t believe it. She pouted and snorted, “Hmph! I knew you were lying. How can you be okay when you look like this? Let Little Whitey help you on the rest of the way~”
After saying that, she didn’t care whether Di Xiu agreed or not, and directly hugged him in her arms. Her plump breasts pressed tightly against Di Xiu, making him almost unable to breathe.
Despite this, Di Xiu still felt Huaidibei’s care and concern for him, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He thought that he must reward her well tonight!
“We’ve gained a lot this time, let’s go home!”
“Let’s go, let’s go.”
Jaya Island has a special meaning in the hearts of the Whitebeard Pirates, it is like their second home.
When everyone learned that the team not only successfully took back Tenjoujin, but also accidentally obtained Kizaru’s blood, the entire station was instantly filled with joy and excitement.
In order to properly celebrate this hard-earned victory and to welcome a promising future, the pirate group carefully organized a grand banquet that night.
At the banquet, the blazing fire lit up the bright smiles on everyone’s faces. In the air, laughter and the tempting aroma of delicious food were intertwined.
In such a joyful atmosphere, Di Xiu, as an important member of the team, naturally became the object of everyone’s toasts.
039 It’s only been two days since I last saw you, you’ve become a lot smarter (old version)
Di Xiu is not usually good at drinking, but on this special day, facing the enthusiastic invitation from his teammates, he was too embarrassed to refuse.
So, one cup after another, before he knew it, Di Xiu had drunk a lot of wine.
By the time he realized that he might have drunk too much, it was too late and everything around him began to become blurry.
At noon the next day, the sunlight shone into the room through the gaps in the curtains, and Di Xiu slowly woke up from his deep sleep.
The moment he opened his eyes, he thought he was dreaming because he found himself lying on the big bed in the bedroom.
Di Xiu looked around and saw a sumptuous breakfast on the table with a small note full of warm words next to it.
“It seems like a lot of things happened last night…” Di Xiu sighed secretly in his heart.
He picked up the note left by Whitey and read it carefully. The note was full of caring words for him: “Remember to eat well~”
Just these few simple words were full of warmth, making Di Xiu feel warm in his heart.
“So this is what it feels like to be cared for by others. It’s really good.” Di Xiu’s mouth corners unconsciously raised and he smiled.
He remembered that before he traveled to this world, he had never felt such a warm moment, but now in this different world, he found the feeling of home. This unexpected gain made him both surprised and moved.
Di Xiu put down the note and decided to enjoy the carefully prepared breakfast in front of him first.
He knew that no matter what difficulties and challenges he would encounter in the future, as long as he had a group of friends who could support each other, there would be nothing that he couldn’t overcome. Today, he would start by enjoying this rare tranquility.
After finishing his meal, Di Xiu started to experiment with replicating the devil fruit.
According to his plan, only after completing one hundred perfect replacements can the next technology be unlocked.
The sky gold robbed this time was worth as much as 10 billion. Although it was far from enough for his plan, it was enough to support him for a few days.
Moreover, their actions have attracted the attention of the World Government. Di Xiu knows that this matter will definitely not end easily.
Two days later.
A wanted warrant caused a sensation throughout the ocean!
The vice-captain of the Whitebeard Pirates – Di Xiu, has a bounty of 2 billion!
Immediately afterwards, Dishu’s crimes were listed one by one.
Hurt the Navy Admiral Qingzhi!
Kill the Celestial Dragon Degusheng!
Grab 10 billion gold from the sky!
Encircle and suppress Admiral Kizaru of the Marine Headquarters!
Illegal occupation of the island!
force……
There were so many crimes that it was hard to count them all, and it took Di Xiu a full page of the newspaper to finish reading them.
“Hahaha, our deputy captain’s bounty is actually 2 billion!” Joz looked at the number in the newspaper, his eyes flashing with irrepressible excitement, as if the 2 billion bounty was his own.
He waved the newspaper in his hand excitedly, his voice full of surprise and pride: “This is 2 billion! Who would have thought that our deputy captain is so worth so much!”
“Ace, the vice captain’s bounty is four or five times more than yours.” Marco walked up to Ace and teased with a smile.
His eyes were full of teasing, as if he wanted to ease the tense atmosphere in this way.
“It’s more than mine. I only have 1.373 billion Baileys…” Marco deliberately prolonged his voice with a bit of exaggeration and self-mockery in his tone, which made Ace, who was originally happy because the deputy captain received a high bounty, instantly become a little irritated.
In response to Marco’s joke, Ace did not respond immediately, but frowned. It was obvious that he was not happy about being compared with others.
“Hmph! Marco, don’t be so complacent. My bounty is definitely more than this.” Ace expressed his thoughts seriously. To prove his worth, one cannot just use bounty to measure it.
“When Qingzhi was injured, I played a big role. It must be that Qingzhi didn’t tell the truth to the navy. Plus, their attention is now on Brother Dixiu, so my bounty is like this now.”
Marco showed a surprised expression when he heard Ace say this. He didn’t expect Ace to be able to analyze the reason behind it so quickly.
“That’s great, Ace.” Marco praised, “It’s only been two days since we last met, and you’ve gotten a lot smarter.”
Ace’s face flushed red and he slapped away Marco’s hand that was reaching out to touch his forehead.
“roll!”
“Hahahahahaha!”
Everyone present was amused by the relaxed yet somewhat competitive conversation between the brothers, and then everyone turned to Di Xiu to congratulate him.
In a dilapidated castle in the Baboon Kingdom.
Hawkeye Mihawk sat alone in the dim room, holding a red wine glass in his hand. His eyes stayed on the wanted poster on the table, as if he was deeply attracted by the content of the wanted poster.
The room was very quiet, with only the occasional sound of wind breaking the silence.
“The vice-captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, the great swordsman, Di Xiu!” Hawkeye whispered these words, with a hint of confusion and surprise in his tone.
“Is this guy really a great swordsman?” He said to himself after confirming the information again.
For him, the world’s greatest swordsman, he had never heard of such a person on Whitebeard’s ship before, which was very surprising.
As time passed, Hawkeye’s eyes became deeper.
He slowly raised his right hand and pointed to the upper left position of the wanted poster, where a male image was drawn: Di Xiu was standing there, with his fingers together in the shape of a sword, and eight clearly visible yet invisible and intangible sword auras surrounding his body.
The most bizarre thing is that these so-called “swords” do not have hilts in the traditional sense, but are simply shaped like the blades of pure energy.
“This is… sword energy!”
Hawkeye finally recognized the nature of this peculiar phenomenon.
As a senior swordsman, he knew that anyone who could reach this level was definitely not an ordinary person.
Thinking of this, Hawkeye couldn’t help but feel a little curious and a desire to challenge: If there is a chance, he really wants to see for himself how powerful this mysterious and powerful opponent is!
Hawkeye’s green gemstone-like pupils suddenly contracted, and it was obvious that he recognized the sword energy. And according to the newspaper, Kizaru personally praised it, saying that it was a sword technique that could even split the sky!
“Tsk tsk tsk…”
He analyzed that there were only two reasons that could make Kizaru so angry.
First, Di Xiu really has such superb swordsmanship;
Second, Dishu was very important to the Navy, so the Navy used these false facts to increase his bounty.
Whatever the case, such a young swordsman is worthy of his attention.
“Swordsmanship that can even split the sky…”
040 I always thought that the Whitebeard Pirates were doomed, but I didn’t expect that they actually had such a ruthless person hidden in their group! (Old version)
Hawkeye thought to himself that this level of swordsmanship was extremely rare in the entire world.
If Di Xiu really has such strength, then he is undoubtedly an ideal opponent.
But on the other hand, Hawkeye also realized that there might be a deeper secret behind this.
After all, the Navy would not exaggerate a person’s abilities for no reason unless that person was of special value to them.
“interesting….”
The very next day, a piece of news exploded across the entire ocean like a thunderclap. The impact it brought was no less than the sensation caused when the Pirate King Roger was executed.
This news was obtained by Morgans, known as the “King of News”, from an unknown secret channel at the risk of his life. Once the news was released, it immediately caused a huge wave around the world.
According to this incredible report, there are multiple members of the Whitebeard Pirates who possess dual fruit abilities!
This discovery completely broke the traditional understanding of the rules of devil fruits – people have always believed that a person can only eat one devil fruit, and if they try to eat a second one, they will die directly. At the same time, this also gave the world a new understanding of the strength of the Whitebeard Pirates.
The report reads: Whitebeard Pirates’ Jozu is a dual-fruit ability user!
Marco of the Whitebeard Pirates is a dual-fruit ability user!
Ace of the Whitebeard Pirates is a dual-fruit ability user!
Whitebeard Pirates, Wildbee…
The newspaper was densely packed with names of people, a small number of which were particularly eye-catching, all of which were the names of people with dual fruit abilities.
These names stand out in the newspapers, as if each name carries a mysterious and powerful power.
Among these names, there are also some names of people with single-fruit abilities.
Although their abilities are not as exaggerated and shocking as those of dual fruit ability users, if you look closely, you can find that these people’s abilities are equally powerful and incredible!
However, what really made the whole ocean boil was the speculation at the bottom of the newspaper.
Morgans wrote solemnly: The crew members are all dual-fruit ability users, so their captain, the man who has the power to destroy the world – the Four Emperors Whitebeard!
Is it possible that he is already a user of the Three Fruits ability? !
This news was like a bombshell, triggering countless people’s imagination and speculation.
Some people began to doubt whether Whitebeard really possessed the abilities of three fruits. If so, how terrifying would his power be?
What makes some people even more uneasy is that if Whitebeard really becomes the user of the Three Fruits ability, he will become the absolute overlord of the entire pirate world, and no one will be able to compete with him.
“Oh my god, I can’t believe it, Whitebeard could be the user of the Three Fruits ability!”
“Won’t this poke a hole in the sky?!”
“Oh my god, I can feel the navy trembling right now.”
“What’s going on? Isn’t the Ice Fruit the ability of Admiral Aokiji? How come the Whitebeard Pirates also have it?!”
“That’s nothing. Did you see a few people in phoenix form?”
“Marco’s Phoenix form?”
“Of course, the Phoenix is ​​a mythical beast-type devil fruit, even rarer than the natural type! Judging from the list, the Whitebeard Pirates now have at least five or six Phoenix fruit users!”
The man took a deep breath, stunned by the news, and said in a trembling voice:
“The sea is about to change. I always thought the Whitebeard Pirates were doomed, but I didn’t expect they had such a ruthless person hidden in their hands!”
“Yeah, everything has to be reshuffled.”
On a very secluded island near Gaya Island,
Blackbeard stood alone on the deserted coast, holding a newspaper tightly in his hand, his eyes wide open, full of shock and anger, as if burning with rage.
Some of the news published in the newspapers are simply incredible:
“Marco has become a dual-fruit ability user!”
“Ace is also a dual fruit user!”
“Even that guy Joz is also a dual fruit ability user!”
These titles were like heavy artillery fire, hitting his heart hard, causing him to feel a strong sense of frustration and deep powerlessness.
Ever since he left the Whitebeard Pirates, it seemed as if the whole world had changed dramatically.
Once upon a time, Blackbeard was fully confident that by seizing the Dark Fruit, he would become extremely powerful and invincible. But now, he found himself in an unprecedented predicament.
Not only was he regarded as an enemy by his former companions and hunted by them, but even worse, the side effects of the Dark Fruit began to appear. Even if he was only slightly injured, he would suffer double the pain, and the pain was as if the whole world was against him.
What makes Blackbeard feel extremely desperate is that he has always coveted the Tremor-Tremor Fruit possessed by Whitebeard. In his mind, as long as he can obtain this powerful power, he can dominate the sea and become the real overlord of the sea.
However, now, members of the Whitebeard Pirates have awakened the power of the dual fruits one after another, and this dream of dominating the sea seems to be becoming more and more out of reach.
Although Blackbeard believes that he has a certain advantage in physical skills, this advantage is simply not worth mentioning and has no effect at all when facing a strong enemy with dual devil fruit abilities.
At this moment, standing on this terrifyingly silent island and looking at the rough sea before him, Blackbeard was filled with confusion and unwillingness.
He knew in his heart that if he wanted to continue living and achieve his ambitious goals, he had to find a new way out.
But he also knew clearly that this road would be full of difficulties and obstacles, the future was unknown, and dangers were hidden everywhere.
“Damn it! How could it turn out like this!” The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. The anger in his heart burned like a tinderbox. “Have these guys been playing tricks on me?!” He clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles turned white.
After a long silence, his expression gradually became gloomy, as if all hope was shattered at this moment.
He slowly lowered his head, a deep despair revealed in the depths of his eyes.
“No wonder there were earthquakes every day on Gaya Island in the past few days, and various phenomena such as fire and ice appeared. If nothing unexpected happens, their second fruit ability must be the Tremor Fruit!” He muttered to himself in a low voice, his words full of unwillingness and helplessness.
041 This must be fake. I don’t believe there are people with dual fruit abilities in this world! (Old version)
“Damn it! That’s the ability I’ve always dreamed of!!!” Teach screamed hysterically, his voice echoing in the empty room. He used both hands to tear up the newspapers one by one, to vent the pent-up dissatisfaction and anger in his heart.
Every piece of torn newspaper seemed to carry his disappointment and pain.
After venting for a while, his emotions gradually calmed down and he fell into deep thought again.
“No, I can’t just sit there and wait for death, absolutely not!” He said firmly, a hint of fighting spirit in his eyes again. “There must be some reason that I didn’t find before.”
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind – golden light! “………………That’s right! It’s the golden light! It must be that strange golden light causing trouble!” Tiqi’s eyes lit up, as if he had grasped the last straw.
“As long as I figure out what the golden light is and where it comes from, I will definitely be able to master the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit!” The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a long-lost smile.
Then, he quickly adjusted his emotions and state, and his figure gradually disappeared into the island.
Wano Country, Onigashima.
In this mysterious and terrifying land, Kaido was drinking wine to his heart’s content. The alcohol made his face more ruddy and his eyes sparkled with excitement.
Yanzai Jin, Quinn and others sat around him, clinking glasses with him constantly, celebrating their victory and increased strength.
The Flying Six also came here to attend the banquet, with proud smiles on their faces, as if they had already seen their bright future.
There were also many minions singing and dancing on the side, and the entire Ghost Island was immersed in a festive atmosphere.
“Hahaha, Jin, the success rate of the artificial devil fruit is quite high this time. The strength of our Beasts Pirates has been greatly enhanced!”
Kaido’s voice echoed throughout Onigashima like thunder. He picked up the huge wine bowl again and drank it all in one gulp. For him, nothing could make him happier than increasing his strength.
Jin’s face turned very ugly in an instant, and he subconsciously touched the newspaper hidden around his waist.
In such an occasion, it is obviously not appropriate to publicly announce the news just received.
In desperation, he could only reluctantly respond: “Uh… yes, yes.”
However, Kaido was very observant of other people’s emotional changes and immediately saw through Jin’s thoughts.
“Jin, if you have anything to say, just say it directly.” Kaido’s tone was calm, but it carried a force that could not be refused. “Don’t I know your temper? There is no benefit in hiding things from me.”
When Quinn heard this, he immediately put down the microphone in his hand, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.
He is particularly interested in anything that can make Jhin look bad!
So, he deliberately approached Jin and shouted loudly: “Oh my, Jin, you are hiding something from Lord Kaido!”
Quinn’s voice attracted the attention of others around him, and everyone cast curious glances at him.
Quinn became even more complacent and continued to provoke: “Come and see, Jin is hiding something from us!”
The crowd began to whisper, and the originally joyful atmosphere suddenly became tense.
As if this wasn’t exciting enough, Quinn provoked him further, “Tell me what it is! Do you want to betray Lord Kaido?”
…….
Faced with everyone’s doubts and Quinn’s provocation, Jhin felt the pressure coming like a mountain, heavier than ever before.
He knew in his heart that if he failed to handle the matter properly, not only would he be put in an awkward situation, but it might even affect the trust relationship within the entire pirate group.
When the Flying Six saw this scene, they couldn’t help but frown, thinking that Quinn’s joke was a bit too much this time.
They exchanged glances, but no one spoke to intervene.
The reason is simple – if Jhin leaves, one of them will have the opportunity to become the new big boss!
How could they miss such a wonderful show?
“Jin, just tell me what you want to say.” Foz F urged impatiently.
“Yes, looking at your expression, is there any bad news?” Sasaki also echoed.
“Don’t be afraid. Who are we? We are the Beasts Pirates!”
“Haha, we ourselves are the bad news that scares others!”
Jin looked at these arrogant guys and felt helpless.
These people are usually used to being arrogant and domineering, but the current situation is not one that can be joked about.
He took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to look at Kaido who was sitting at the top.
“Lord Kaido,” Jin said with a hint of caution, “Do we really have to tell you the bad news now?”
In an instant, the whole room fell silent, everyone stopped talking, and all looked at Kaido.
There was a tense and depressing atmosphere in the air, and it was so quiet that even everyone’s breathing could be heard clearly.
Kaido nodded slightly, and Jin slowly spoke:
“Lord Kaido, a dual-fruit ability user has appeared in the Whitebeard Pirates.”
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately caused an uproar.
“What! Jhin, what did you say!” Quinn’s shrill voice rang out, screaming like a duck with its tail stepped on.
“What is a dual-fruit ability user?! Can one person have two fruit abilities? Are you kidding me!”
“It’s fake! I don’t believe there are people with dual fruit abilities in this world!”
“Jin, you are the boss, you can’t just say anything. You have to know that your words may affect the stability of the entire Beasts Pirates.”
Fuzzy F said in a preaching tone, raising his head slightly, his eyes full of disdain. In his opinion, such lies were ridiculed.
What about the dual fruit ability user? That’s complete nonsense!
The ridicule from the crowd made Kaido frown, and his drunkenness also sobered up a little.
“Jin, you are not drunk, are you? I know the situation of the Whitebeard Pirates very well. There are only a few people on their ship, and there is no dual-fruit ability user. Are you mistaken?”
Jhin frowned. He had already expected that no one would believe it if he told it to them.
At first he himself didn’t dare to believe it, but it was clearly written in the newspaper and he couldn’t help but believe it.
Moreover, this was reported personally by Morganus, the big news king who only reports true events. That bird would never joke about his own reputation.
042 After being bored for so many years, finally there comes an opponent who can fight me (old version)
Add to that Kizaru’s teasing and the ridiculously high bounty on the young man named Di Xiu, all of these… indicate that this matter is most likely true!
Jhin took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He knew that sometimes the truth was harder to believe than a lie, but that was the truth.
It is an undeniable fact that there is indeed someone in the Whitebeard Pirates who possesses two devil fruit abilities.
Although this news sounds absurd, all the evidence points in this direction.
He once again explained to the people present: “I know it is difficult for you to accept this fact, but please believe me, this is not a story I made up.
Morgan’s reporting is always rigorous and he would not fabricate news out of thin air.
Moreover, the attitude of Navy Admiral Kizaru can also explain some problems.
More importantly, the bounty on that young man, Di Xiu, has reached an unprecedented level, which also proves that his strength should not be underestimated. “
Then, Jin took out a newspaper and spread it out in front of Kaido.
“Lord Kaido, I promise that what I said is true. If you don’t believe me, take a look at this.”
Others also came over, obviously they were also shocked, with suspicion in their eyes, they kept looking at the newspaper.
“You know the reputation of News King Morgans, he never reports fake news.
He is not afraid of the navy or the Celestial Dragons, and he will not make false reports just because of certain pirate forces.
Therefore, what the newspaper said about the Whitebeard Pirates having a dual fruit ability user is most likely true!”
Jin finished his speculation in one breath and let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to let go of the heavy burden in his heart.
To be honest, even he felt a little powerless when he saw the message above. It felt like being pressed down by an invisible huge rock, making it hard to breathe.
When Kaido saw the news in the newspaper, his originally playful expression gradually turned serious. His brows were furrowed, and his eyes revealed deep worry.
Finally, his expression became very solemn, as if he was thinking about something of great importance.
The others also realized the seriousness of the matter. They stopped what they were doing and looked at Kaido, waiting for his next instructions.
If this is true, it would be terrible.
Who can resist Whitebeard who possesses the power of the three fruits?
The original balance between the Four Emperors will definitely be broken!
This news was like a powerful bomb, exploding in everyone’s hearts.
“Hahaha, great! Whitebeard, the user of the Third Fruit? That’s awesome!” Kaido laughed loudly, picked up the big wine bowl in front of him, and drank it in big gulps without hesitation. The wine flowed down his throat, as if even the ambitions in his heart were ignited.
“I haven’t drunk so much in a long time!”
Kaido sighed, his tone full of nostalgia and enjoyment for this exhilarating feeling.
With a loud “bang”, the wine bowl in his hand fell heavily to the ground and shattered into pieces in an instant, with fragments flying everywhere.
As the debris scattered, the air seemed to be filled with a strong smell of battle.
Kaido slowly stood up, his tall and burly body looked even more majestic under the light.
A strong fighting spirit gradually erupted from him, a force that seemed to tear the air apart, making it difficult for people to breathe. His eyes became extremely sharp, like two extremely sharp blades, stabbing straight forward.
“I’ve been bored for so many years, and finally there’s an opponent who can fight me.” Kaido said coldly, with a confident smile on his face. “What three fruits or double fruits? The one who can defeat me is the real strong one!”
Hearing this, everyone else present also laughed wildly. They, the Beasts Pirates, have never been afraid of anyone.
That’s how it used to be!
Now it is like this!
It will always be like this in the future!
….
On the cake island of nations,
Perospero rushed into the hall in a hurry, his tongue wagging with his rapid steps, his face full of anxiety. His shouts echoed in the empty hall, sounding particularly harsh.
“Mmmmm! Something big happened!”
Perospero shouted this sentence with almost all his might, as if only by shouting so loudly could the people present feel his urgency and panic at the moment.
The originally bustling hall suddenly seemed to be frozen. Everyone’s eyes were fixed on him.
“Something unexpected has happened to the Whitebeard Pirates. Their vice-captain is a new guy who appeared out of nowhere and has a bounty of 2 billion berries on him!”
This news was like a powerful bomb, exploding in the hall.
Everyone looked at Perospero in shock, not daring to believe what they heard.
Two billion Baileys, this is an unprecedentedly high bounty, which is enough to prove that the strength of this newcomer should not be underestimated!
“Moreover, many of the crew members on their ship have inexplicably become dual-fruit ability users! Whitebeard is suspected of possessing three fruit abilities!”
Perospero ran and shouted loudly, obviously frightened by the news.
His voice was trembling, and his eyes were filled with fear and anxiety. The fact that Whitebeard had two fruit abilities was shocking enough, but if he really had three fruit abilities, it would completely subvert everyone’s cognition.
The hall was eerily quiet, and everyone was shocked by the news and speechless.
The air was filled with a depressing atmosphere, making it difficult to breathe. Perospero ran to the old lady, panting, and fell to his knees with a plop, his forehead covered with sweat.
“Gah???”
The aunt was sitting in a luxurious chair, ready to enjoy the delicious cake in front of her. When she heard Perospero’s shout, she frowned and lost her appetite instantly.
She hated being disturbed when enjoying delicious sweets, even by her own children!
“Perospero, what are you shouting for? Can’t you see I’m eating cake?” The aunt’s eyes gradually became angry, and her tone was full of impatience.
She was planning to enjoy this delicious cake dessert, but was disrupted by the sudden noise!
It was obvious that she had not heard what Perospero had just said.
043 How could this guy Whitebeard do that! Where does he get the courage from! (Old version)
Seeing this, Perospero hurriedly explained: “Ah? Well, well, please listen to my explanation!” He shook his head in panic, indicating that he had something important to say.
“Hmph! Tell me what’s the matter!” the aunt responded coldly, but did not punish him immediately.
Her eyes were still on the tempting cake, as if she was ready to eat it at any time.
Seeing that the aunt did not get angry immediately, Perospero quickly took out the newspaper in his hand and tried to get her attention by showing the information on it.
“Mom, something big has happened! The newspaper said that many members of the Whitebeard Pirates are dual-fruit users! The old man with half of his body buried in the ground, Whitebeard, is suspected to be a triple-fruit user!”
“What!” The aunt cried out in surprise, and was also frightened by the news Perospero said.
She quickly put down her fork, snatched the newspaper from Perospero’s hand, and started reading it.
The more she looked, the more shocked she became. Her eyes widened and her face was filled with shock and disbelief.
“Well, well, well! How could this guy Whitebeard do that! Where does he get the courage from!?
What the hell is going on! Isn’t that guy ready to end the old era? Why is he still doing all this? “
The aunt’s voice was full of doubt and confusion. She totally couldn’t understand the situation before her.
Whitebeard has always been one of her strongest opponents in her mind, but the news she heard now made her feel unprecedented pressure.
Seeing his mother’s emotions gradually getting out of control, Perospero was anxious like an ant on a hot pan, but he also knew that some things had to be put aside for the time being.
“Well, now that the Whitebeard Pirates have become much stronger, and the direction of their actions is unclear, should we consider suspending our plans for Fishman Island?” he asked cautiously.
Big Mom frowned. In fact, she didn’t care too much about the things happening on Fishman Island.
For her, it doesn’t matter whether she gets Fishman Island or not. She just wants to use Fishman Island to test the attitude of the Whitebeard Pirates.
In this way, she can indirectly judge whether Whitebeard still has the strength to fight against the Four Emperors.
However, judging from the current situation, if the report is true, Whitebeard has at least two fruit abilities, or possibly even three!
“Don’t make a decision in a hurry,” the aunt said after thinking for a while, “Although Morgans usually doesn’t spread false information, it’s better for us to confirm it with our own eyes.”
Hearing this, Perospero nodded: “…Yes.”
There is an inconspicuous tavern whose appearance is so ordinary that it is easy to overlook its existence.
However, this tavern had already been taken over by the Whitebeard Pirates and became one of their affiliated bases.
Since then, the entire Jaya Island seems to have been marked by the Whitebeard Pirates. The lush trees on the island, the winding paths, and even the air are filled with the unique scent of the Four Emperors Whitebeard!
But for some people, this change is not what they want.
Bellamy is one of them, and he is deeply dissatisfied with the situation he is forced to accept.
“My idol is Doflamingo!”
Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, this sentence would keep echoing in his mind, reminding him of his past dreams and pursuits.
Originally, before the Whitebeard Pirates arrived, he had already prepared to leave here and planned to pack his bags and embark on a journey to join the Don Quixote family.
But plans can never keep up with changes. Just when he was about to set off, the Whitebeard Pirates suddenly appeared as if from the sky, quickly took control of the entire island, and imposed a full martial law!
Faced with this sudden change, Bellamy was angry and helpless.
Although on the surface he could only obey the status quo, his admiration for Ming Ge never disappeared.
Every night, when everyone else on the island fell asleep, Bellamy would sneak out of the room and run to the beach alone to observe the Whitebeard Pirates’ guard duty.
After several days of observation, he finally figured out everyone’s shift patterns!
Tonight, he decided to escape!
“At this point in time, it’s the shift change time, so no one will notice!” Bellamy gritted his teeth, went to the place where he had hidden the canoe before, and paddled forward desperately.
At this time, in the well-protected manor behind the garrison,
Di Xiu stood quietly in front of a large window, staring through the dark night at the figure that was gradually moving away.
Until the figure completely disappeared from sight, the corners of Di Xiu’s mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
After confirming that the other party had completely left, he turned and walked to the small table next to him, on which was placed an exquisite Den Den Mushi.
“Go on duty, that guy is gone.”
After putting down the Den Den Mushi, Di Xiu returned to the window, but this time his eyes became deeper.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about something important.
“That’s a big money sponsor…” He said to himself, with a tone of expectation and caution. “I hope you can play a role, Bellamy.”
In the meeting hall of the Admiralty Headquarters in Marinford, the atmosphere was particularly heavy.
The sky outside the window was gloomy, as if it would rain at any time, which somehow echoed the depressing atmosphere inside the room.
Most of the naval generals gathered here, everyone’s face was filled with worry and uneasiness, and their eyes revealed concern about the unknown future.
They knew in their hearts that an unprecedented storm was quietly brewing, and the whole world seemed to be about to fall into chaos and turmoil.
The three admirals Akainu, Aokiji and Kizaru sat in the front row. As representatives of the navy’s highest combat power, their expressions were equally serious and nervous.
Akainu Sakaski clenched his fists tightly and stared ahead with a sharp gaze;
Aokiji Kuzan remained calm as always, but his eyes could hardly hide his anxiety;
Although Kizaru Borsalino still had that signature smile on his face, what was hidden behind the smile was his deep worry.
Staff Officer Tsuru had a frown on his face at the moment, thinking about how to deal with the situation; even in this dire situation, Garp still looked optimistic, eating senbei one bite after another.
The other lieutenant generals sat on both sides.
“Everyone,” Marshal Zhan Guo’s voice rang out in the conference room, breaking the oppressive silence.
044 Destroy Gaya Island, at least let the higher-ups see our attitude! (Old version)
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then slowly said: “I’m sure everyone has guessed what we’re going to discuss at today’s meeting.”
After a pause, he continued, “I don’t know where Morgans got the secret that the Whitebeard Pirates have multiple fruit ability users, and he spread the news to the whole world!”
“Moreover, a Tianlong was killed. The higher-ups’ attitude towards this matter is very clear.”
Hearing this, everyone present couldn’t help but gasp.
Once this news spreads, it will not only seriously shake the Navy’s control over the New World, but will also make those who covet this power ready to move.
Some forces have begun to plan secretly, thinking about how to use this intelligence to gain benefits for themselves, and may even trigger an unprecedented large-scale conflict.
For the navy, which is responsible for maintaining world order, this is undoubtedly a huge challenge and crisis.
For a moment, there was a brief silence in the conference room.
This silence seemed to freeze the air. Everyone’s breathing seemed to be amplified, becoming the only sound in this quiet space.
The sun was still shining brightly outside the window, but the atmosphere inside was unusually heavy, as if there was an invisible pressure pressing on everyone’s heart.
“Everyone, tell us what you think?” Marshal Zhan Guo asked again. Although his voice was calm, it carried unquestionable majesty.
His eyes swept from left to right over every officer present, hoping to find someone who could break the deadlock and give clear direction.
However, faced with this sudden change, most people were at a loss, and their thoughts seemed to have stopped at this moment.
The officers exchanged glances with each other, with complex emotions flashing in their eyes: confusion, anxiety, and expectation.
They all seem to be waiting for someone to step forward and give a clear direction or suggestion to ease the current tense situation.
But the reality is that without adequate intelligence support, any decision may bring unforeseen risks.
This uncertainty makes everyone cautious and afraid to speak easily.
So, except for a few senior officers, most people either bowed their heads in thought, trying to find the answer in their own minds;
Or just choose to remain silent and wait for Marshal Warring States to give the next instructions.
At times like this, obeying orders is much more important than acting blindly.
After all, if you make the wrong decision, the consequences will be disastrous.
Time seems to have stopped at this moment.
Everyone fell silent, waiting quietly, hoping that someone would come forward to break the silence and find a way out of the current difficult situation.
Zhan Guo sat there quietly, his eyes deep, staring ahead, as if he was immersed in thinking about some important issue.
The scene was eerily quiet, as if the air was frozen.
Finally, Akainu spoke up to break the oppressive atmosphere. His words were filled with an unquestionable determination, but strangely, he did not mention anything about the Celestial Dragons, as if the death of a Celestial Dragon was no big deal to them.
“Marshal Sengoku, the fact that Whitebeard possesses the three fruits has not yet been determined. But what cannot be ignored is that they also obtained Kizaru’s blood.”
“In this way, even if the previous rumors were false, they now have some credibility.”
After saying this, Akainu took a deep breath, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
“The true measure of a strong man is not how many abilities he possesses.” He continued, “Take Whitebeard for example. He was once one of the strongest men on the sea, but now he is old and his physical strength and energy are not as good as before.”
“If he dares to challenge our naval headquarters, Marinford, this will become his burial place!”
Hearing this, Kizaru couldn’t help but shook his head.
If he had heard such words before leaving, he might have agreed a little.
But after experiencing this incident, he actually had no idea about the final outcome.
On the other side, Qing Zhi remained silent, with his hands folded behind his head, lazily leaning back in his chair. No one could guess what he was thinking at the moment.
The whole room fell silent again, with only the occasional sound of waves coming from outside the window, seeming to remind everyone that a battle was about to begin.
“Okay, Sengoku, let’s proceed according to the previous plan. All the changes that occurred in Whitebeard are because of the young man named Dixiu.”
Vice Admiral Tsuru spoke directly, breaking the silence in the conference room and ending everyone’s long wait.
She stood up slowly, her eyes first swept over Marshal Zhan Guo, then looked at everyone present, and said in a firm tone:
“We must capture Di Xiu as soon as possible, and uncover the secret of how Whitebeard and his gang became dual-fruit users.”
“Only in this way can the strength of the navy be greatly improved, and the so-called Great Pirate Era can be truly ended!”
“Hahaha, that’s right, Chief of Staff Crane has exactly the same idea as me.”
Garp said with a laugh, seemingly not noticing that Crane’s expression had turned a little gloomy due to his displeasure.
“Zhan Guo, I also firmly support this point of view!”
Vice Admiral Tsuru’s words echoed in the conference room, sparking a murmur of discussion.
Everyone is clearly aware of the seriousness and urgency of the problem.
Whitebeard’s changes are not just an increase in his personal strength, but also a challenge to the entire naval system.
If we don’t act in time, the consequences will be disastrous.
Marshal Zhan Guo pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
He knew in his heart that Vice Admiral Tsuru’s suggestion made sense.
Although it is not easy to capture Di Xiu and uncover the secrets of Whitebeard and his gang, this is the only way to reverse the situation at the moment.
He took a deep breath, stood up, and announced to everyone present:
“First, issue a demon-killing order! Destroy Gaya Island. At least let the higher-ups see our attitude!”
“Second, from now on, we must do our utmost to hunt down Di Xiu and investigate the truth behind Whitebeard’s gang. All departments must work closely together to ensure the successful completion of the mission. This is not only about the honor of the Navy, but also for the peace and stability of the entire world.”
“Third, notify all naval branches that as long as they find Di Xiu or have any news about him, they must report to the naval headquarters immediately!”
“yes!”
“receive!”
“…”
045 I say, you must know about the Whitebeard Pirates, right? (Old version)
After the meeting, Zhan Guo sat alone in his office, lost in deep thought.
He was well aware that this incident would have a huge impact on the World Government. Not only would it make the World Government lose face in the public eye, it could also trigger a series of chain reactions.
After some thought, he felt it necessary to report the situation directly to his superiors and seek further instructions.
So he picked up the phone and dialed Satan Saint’s special line.
The call was connected quickly, but the voice on the other end was full of anger and dissatisfaction.
“Sengoku, do you know what the death of a Celestial Dragon means? This makes us lose face in front of the whole world! As the Admiral of the Navy, you are responsible for this!”
Although the other party tried hard to remain calm, one could still clearly feel the anger burning in him.
Faced with such severe accusations, Zhan Guo did not panic, but responded with a more calm attitude:
“Saint Satan, please allow me to explain.”
“In response to this incident, we have taken emergency measures – we have issued a demon-killing order against Di Xiu and his accomplices, and dispatched our strongest forces to carry out the mission.”
“I believe that through our efforts, we will be able to recover some of the losses.”
“Humph,” a cold snort came from the other end of the phone, “Do you think this will solve the problem? Don’t forget about the Whitebeard Pirates! They are one of the Four Emperors! If they are not handled properly, the consequences will be disastrous.”
“Besides… now is not the time to declare war, you should understand.”
“…It is indeed as you said,” Zhan Guo admitted, “So we are also actively looking for a balance to ensure that justice is served while avoiding triggering larger-scale conflicts. After all, maintaining peace on the sea is our top priority.”
However, these words did not seem to calm the other party.
“Think about it for nothing!” Saint Satan suddenly cursed, obviously dissatisfied with Zhan Guo’s answer.
Then he added: “Let’s put the others aside for now, but we must go all out to capture Di Xiu and unlock the secret of his multi-fruit ability.”
“Also, we need to collect blood samples from the Whitebeard Pirates members as soon as possible and give them to Vegapunk for research and analysis.”
Hearing this, Zhan Guo realized that the situation had become extremely serious and there was no room for negotiation.
So he immediately stated: “I understand, I will follow your instructions.”
In Dressrosa,
On this day, the original tranquility of the island was broken.
A ragged, dark-skinned, cracked tramp appeared here, looking as if he had been drifting on the sea for a long time, and his face was haggard.
“I’m looking for Doflamingo! I have something important to report!” he shouted weakly, with a hint of despair in his voice.
Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly lost consciousness. With a “bang”, he fell unconscious to the ground, as if he had exhausted all the strength to stand.
When the homeless man woke up again, he found himself lying in a simple but relatively clean house.
It was very quiet all around, with only the occasional bird calls outside the window.
He was about to sit up when a man in a white cloak and holding a golden scepter walked into the room.
The man had a smile on his face, but there was a hint of cunning and curiosity in his eyes.
“I say, who are you? What do you want from Dover?” Torrepol asked in his unique nasal voice, his tone full of teasing.
Bellamy was startled by the sudden sound and his body trembled involuntarily.
But he quickly calmed down and looked carefully at the man in front of him – it turned out to be one of the important members of the Don Quixote family and Doflamingo’s most capable assistant, Trebol!
Bellamy was surprised and nervous when he realized who was standing in front of him.
After all, for those who travel on the sea, it is a very rare thing to meet such a high-level figure.
“You…you are Torrebol!!!” Bellamy’s voice was trembling and he could hardly speak clearly.
His heart beat rapidly, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his eyes were filled with fear and disbelief.
“Hehehehe, do you know me? If I hadn’t just come back, you might have been beaten to death by those toys~” Torrebol said half-jokingly, with a weird smile on his lips.
His tone was relaxed, but there was a cold gleam in his smiling eyes, a cold and ruthless look.
For a man of unknown origin like Bellamy, Torrebol already had a plan in mind: it would be best to kill him directly.
After all, in this dangerous world, any potential threat cannot be easily let go.
Bellamy shrank back, feeling a chill running down his back.
He could clearly feel the murderous intent emanating from Torrebol, and his heart skipped a beat, as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest.
Why do these people want to kill people at every turn?
Can’t you just talk properly?
He prayed silently in his heart, hoping that he could get through this safely.
“Wait! My name is Bellamy, and I escaped from Gaya Island!” Bellamy quickly told his origins. Seeing that Trebol’s expression did not change, he continued, “I am also a loyal fan of Doflamingo! I dream of joining the Don Quixote family and becoming one of them!”
Bellamy became more and more excited as he spoke, his expression became fanatical, and even his body was shaking with excitement.
“I know that there are nineteen people in the Don Quixote family, including me! The boss is Doflamingo, and there are you, Trebol, Circa, Diamante…”
After talking about all the members in one breath, Bellamy paused and took a breath. Although he was exhausted physically and mentally after running on the sea for seven days and nights, he was excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood when he mentioned his idol!
“Stop, stop, stop!!!”
Torrebol finally responded, looking a little surprised, and asked, “You said you came from Gaya Island?”
“Yes, what’s wrong… Lord Torrebol, please listen to me. I have heard about Ming Ge’s heroic deeds since I was a child…”
Bellamy’s words were interrupted again. Torrebol was staring at him excitedly with a scary expression. After all, there was a large piece of snot hanging from his nose. Anyone who saw it would be a little worried.
“I say, you must know about the Whitebeard Pirates, right?”
“…I know, I know a little.” Bellamy shrank his neck, “You want to know about Qingzhi?”
“Qingzhi???”
“Doesn’t Lord Torebol know?”
“…Hehehehe, I’ll take you to find Dover!”
046 I guess few people can withstand this kind of attack (old version)
In the back garden of the Dressrosa palace, the sunlight penetrated through the layers of leaves, casting patches of light and shadows of various shapes on the ground.
The breeze blew gently, and the air was filled with the rich fragrance of flowers. The fragrance was faint and lingered all around.
Doflamingo sat leisurely on a finely crafted rattan chair, his eyes slightly narrowed, looking at Bellamy standing in front of him with a somewhat amusement expression.
There was disdain and a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
Next to the table was the latest newspaper of the day, and in a very conspicuous position on the newspaper was printed the latest news about the Whitebeard Pirates.
“Is what you said true?” Doflamingo asked. His voice was low and had a unique magnetism, but there was a chilling aura in his words.
Bellamy nodded hurriedly, his expression looking extremely enthusiastic: “Really! It’s absolutely true!” His eyes were flashing with excitement. For him, nothing could make him more excited than meeting the person he admired the most.
His hands were clenched tightly together, his knuckles turning white from the force, as if he was trying desperately to suppress his inner excitement, fearing that he would do something inappropriate due to being too excited.
Hearing Bellamy’s answer, Doflamingo’s face suddenly darkened, and his originally red glasses seemed to be covered with a layer of gray shadow.
Torrepol stood aside, his face also became extremely ugly. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with the news brought by Bellamy.
“Dover, tell me,” Trebol said, with obvious sarcasm in his tone, “When did the Whitebeard Pirates hide scientific researchers? This is really unexpected.”
“Humph!” Doflamingo snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with anger and unwillingness. “It doesn’t matter who they are hiding. The key is that they have developed a devil fruit with no side effects!” His words were full of shock at this fact, and jealousy that was difficult to conceal.
This news was a heavy blow to him. It meant that the strength of the Whitebeard Pirates would be greatly improved, and this was absolutely terrible news for their family.
For a moment, the whole garden fell into silence, with only the occasional bird calls breaking the depressing atmosphere.
When Bellamy saw this scene, he dared not say another word and could only stand there quietly.
After a while, Doflamingo slowly stood up from his chair, holding the newspaper tightly in his hand, and carefully scanned every word and every headline in the newspaper, trying to find even a trace of useful clues.
“Ice Fruit, Tremor Fruit, Mythical Beast Phoenix Form…” He muttered to himself in a low voice, with an indescribable heaviness in his voice.
Any of these devil fruits’ abilities is enough to cause a storm in the world, and now they can be mass-produced, which is undoubtedly a huge challenge to his existing power. Moreover, once the other party succeeds in mass production, the smile fruit in his hand will become worthless!
“The most important thing is that they can actually make people become dual fruit users…” Doflamingo’s tone was full of shock and disbelief. If this technology is widely used, the entire world will be completely overturned.
Trebol silently observed the changes in Doflamingo’s expression. He could clearly feel that the tense atmosphere in the air was becoming more and more intense.
“If the opponent’s devil fruit really achieves mass production, how can we do business with Kaido!” Doflamingo suddenly raised his voice, with anger and helplessness in his tone. He knew very well that if he couldn’t find a way to deal with it, everything they had worked so hard to build over the years would be in vain.
He frowned tightly, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows were like a deep “川” character, revealing his inner anxiety and uneasiness.
We must find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise everything will be irreversible.
At this moment, his eyes inadvertently fell on Bellamy, who had a fanatical look on his face.
Bellamy’s eyes flashed with a strong desire for power and infinite admiration for Doflamingo.
At this moment, a brilliant idea suddenly flashed through Doflamingo’s mind.
“Bellamy, will you work for me…” His voice was low and magnetic, as if it carried an irresistible magic.
He knew in his heart that Bellamy was the kind of person who was willing to give everything for his ideals and ambitions, and this was exactly what he needed most at the moment.
Gaya Island used to be a quiet and peaceful island, but now, because Di Xiu is wanted, the whole island is in a tense atmosphere.
Ever since Dixiu was hunted by the navy, the Whitebeard Pirates have been guarding this land and have never left.
Their only task every day is to patrol around the island and do their best to ensure that Di Xiu’s safety is not threatened in any way.
Inside the pirate group’s base, the atmosphere was extremely solemn.
Whitebeard sat above, his eyes flashing with determination and a bit of wisdom.
The other crew members sat down separately, arguing about how to deal with the current situation. Everyone had different opinions, and the scene was in chaos.
“Gulala, little devils!” Whitebeard suddenly shouted, his voice like thunder, resounding throughout the room, “Kizaru’s Pikachu Fruit is really powerful, especially the speed it grants, which is extremely fast and no one can match it.
If I can use this to escape, I think no one in the world will be able to catch up with me.”
Having said that, Whitebeard paused, as if thinking about something crucial.
Then, he continued: “In fact, I have always had an idea – if I can strengthen Kizaru’s ability to me, and then combine it with my Tremor-Tremor Fruit attack, maybe I can create a more powerful combination of power.
Can you imagine what amazing effects would occur when light-speed movement and an earthquake-like impact force are combined?
I don’t think many people can withstand this kind of attack.”
After hearing this, everyone present fell silent. They were all shocked by Dad’s bold idea.
047 Of course I know, and you have been to that place before (old version)
Although this idea sounds a bit crazy, Dad is one of the powerful Four Emperors, and he has a unique and profound understanding of combat, so no one dares to easily reject this proposal.
“Dad, although Kizaru’s Pikachu Fruit is powerful, it seems to be only useful when escaping.” Marco frowned and analyzed. His eyes revealed a trace of worry and dissatisfaction, and he obviously did not recognize the value of this ability.
“It would be such a waste if a fruit could only be used to escape.” Ace nodded in agreement, his tone firm.
He was now in phoenix form, full of confidence. He felt that even when facing a powerful enemy, he could withstand most attacks with his own defense. Therefore, he was somewhat disdainful of the ability to escape simply by relying on speed.
White Beard was silent for a while, with a complicated expression on his face.
In this world, nothing is absolutely perfect.
The Sparkle-Spark Fruit is indeed very tempting. Not only does it allow people to move instantly to wherever they want to go, it also greatly increases the user’s chance of survival.
However, as Marco and Ace said, this ability seems more suitable for escaping danger rather than being used in direct combat.
Just then, Joz and Dixiu appeared at the door.
Joz shouted loudly: “Deputy Captain Di Xiu is here!” As his voice fell, the people who were arguing fiercely gradually quieted down and turned to look at Di Xiu.
Di Xiu had heard about what happened here on the way here, so he didn’t waste time asking for details, but walked directly to Whitebeard and said: “Captain, although Kizaru’s Shining Fruit is very tempting, it is not very useful for you. It can only increase your speed a little bit.”
After hearing this, Whitebeard nodded in agreement and was about to say something when he was interrupted by Di Xiu.
“I know there is a fruit that is more powerful than the Sparkle Fruit,” Di Xiu continued, “This fruit not only allows you to gain super speed, but also enhances the attack power of the ability user.”
“What?” Whitebeard was obviously shocked by the news. He was stunned for a moment before asking, “There is such a fruit?”
The others also looked confused. They were all very curious about what kind of fruit could increase both speed and attack power at the same time.
Seeing everyone’s puzzled looks, Di Xiu smiled slightly, then raised his hand, pointed to the sky and said, “Thunder Fruit.”
Hearing the name of this fruit, someone exclaimed in surprise: “Thunder Fruit? Is it the ability to control thunder and lightning?”
“Yes, it’s the Thunder Fruit.” Someone explained, “This is an extremely rare and powerful natural devil fruit. The eater can have the power to control lightning. I heard that this ability can not only release powerful electric shock attacks, but also make the user’s body as agile as lightning, making it difficult to predict.”
“Nature-type Devil Fruits! Nature-type Devil Fruits are so rare that it all depends on luck whether you can come across one.” Another crew member sighed, “In this world, the number of Nature-type Devil Fruits is very limited, and each one is extremely precious. Anyone who can get such a fruit is extremely lucky.”
“You idiot, since Vice Captain Di Xiu said so, he must know where it is!” said an experienced old sailor. “Vice Captain Di Xiu is the smartest person on our ship. He won’t just say something he’s not sure about. He mentioned the Thunder Fruit, so he may have got some clues or information about it.”
“Right! Oh, why didn’t I think of that!” Another crew member patted his head, looking annoyed, “Yes, we should trust Vice Captain Di Xiu’s judgment. Since he mentioned the Thunder Fruit, he must have his reasons. Maybe we can find this fruit soon.”
Everyone nodded in agreement, their hearts filled with anticipation and excitement.
After all, a natural devil fruit like the Thunder Fruit is a treasure that every pirate dreams of.
If they could really obtain it, then the strength and combat effectiveness of their pirate group would definitely be greatly enhanced.
When Marco heard the words “Thunder Fruit”, his eyes suddenly lit up.
If they can really find such a powerful fruit, it will undoubtedly be a huge help to their pirate group, especially for father Whitebeard, this is definitely the most ideal choice at the moment!
“Brother Di Xiu, I knew you would always find a way.” Ace looked at Di Xiu with admiration on his face. Since they met, as time went by, Di Xiu’s image in his heart became taller and taller, as if there was no problem that Di Xiu could not solve.
At the same time, Whitebeard was also attracted by this topic.
Although he was also interested in the Thunder Fruit, he had never heard any news about it before.
“Boy Di Xiu, do you know where the Thunder Fruit is?” White Beard asked curiously.
Di Xiu smiled slightly, with a mysterious arc at the corner of his mouth: “Of course I know, and you have been to that place before.”
“Have I been there?” White Beard was very surprised at first, and then tried hard to recall, but he couldn’t remember when he had been to such a place.
Seeing this scene, Di Xiu sighed softly and said slowly: “That place is – Sky Island.”
“Sky Island?” Whitebeard repeated these two words and frowned slightly.
After thinking for a moment, he raised his head and looked towards the sky, as if the words “Sky Island” evoked memories deep in his heart.
“Yes, I did go there once a long time ago.” Then he turned to look at Di Xiu, shook his head and gave a negative answer, “But when I was there, I neither found any ‘Thunder Fruit’ nor met anyone with this ability.”
Faced with Whitebeard’s doubts, Di Xiu did not respond immediately, but still had that mysterious smile on his face, which made everyone present even more curious.
Di Xiu thought to himself: If you had seen Enel back then, that would be strange. He went to Sky Island later, and has been there ever since, never leaving. So, of course you couldn’t have seen him.
“The user of the Thunder Fruit arrived at Sky Island later, so you didn’t have the chance to meet him at that time.” Di Xiu explained.
048 You are the captain of the squad, but you can’t even show your Armament Haki. It’s a bit unreasonable (old version)
Then, Di Xiu began to tell the story about the Golden City that had long been circulated on Gaya Island.
He said: “The thing is… The user of the Thunder Fruit is called Enel. He calls himself a god and now rules the entire Sky Island.”
Then, Di Xiu mentioned the recent incident of snatching Tenjo Gold and the series of consequences caused by the exposure of the news of the dual fruit ability user.
“After the news spread, we became the target of public criticism. Although this is not a big deal for us, if all the forces unite to deal with us, it will indeed increase our pressure.”
So, Di Xiu came up with a bold idea:
“I have a suggestion – we can move the entire base to Sky Island!
Sky Island has an extremely advantageous geographical location, which is simply unique.
Even for the navy, it would take a lot of time and energy to get there, which gave us plenty of time to grow and develop and accumulate wealth.
Once we have enough financial support, every member of our Whitebeard Pirates will have the opportunity to become the owner of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit!
We can even train more powerful people with dual or even triple abilities!”
Dishu’s words echoed passionately in the air like surging waves. His tone was up and down, and his words were full of unwavering determination.
He firmly believed that this seemingly whimsical plan was actually feasible and had a high chance of success!
After listening to Di Xiu’s enthusiasm, the others were moved and raised their hands in agreement, fully supporting Di Xiu’s idea.
The atmosphere of unity at the scene makes people excited.
Qiao Zi was the first to stand up and express his support. He patted his chest, laughed and said, “A novice who doesn’t even know how to use Haki actually dares to call himself a god. Wait for me, Qiao Zi, to meet him and teach him a lesson!”
As he spoke, Joz started to demonstrate his boxing skills in front of everyone.
Every time he threw a punch, there was a sonic boom. The vibration force was cleverly controlled around his fist, multiplying the attack power!
This is enough to show that Joz has put a lot of effort in this regard.
Whitebeard looked at Joz’s wonderful performance, nodded with satisfaction, and said, “Gulala, Joz, you have made great progress! The Tremor-Tremor Fruit has infinite potential. Only when you can develop a move that suits you can you be truly powerful!”
Then, Whitebeard smiled, looked at Di Xiu, nodded and said, “Di Xiu, let’s do as you say, let’s go to Sky Island!”
Hearing that Whitebeard agreed to the plan, everyone cheered.
They were a little bored of staying here, and now they had the opportunity to go to the legendary Sky Island. This was undoubtedly good news and exciting to them.
“Great! I heard that Sky Island is full of gold! I finally have a chance to become a person with special abilities!”
“Yes, Lord Di Xiu said that there is a city of gold, which will definitely allow us to gain abilities!”
“I heard there are many beautiful women there. I want to capture them all and send them to Vice Captain Dishu!”
“That’s right, Lord Di Xiu has been very kind to us. We have no way to repay him, so we can only send him a beautiful woman to show our appreciation.”
After hearing these words, Di Xiu was speechless. How could he like beautiful women so much?
However, none of this matters. What matters is the intentions of these crew members.
He looked at these lovely crew members with encouragement in his eyes and nodded vigorously in approval.
Seeing Di Xiu’s response, the crew members became even more excited!
This is the recognition of them from Vice Captain Di Xiu!
Compared to the excitement of other places, the captains seemed to be relatively quiet. Ace was sitting on a chair, swinging his legs leisurely, while Marco stood aside, looking at him gently.
“Ace, how are you doing with your Haki?” Marco asked, with a hint of concern and expectation in his tone.
Ace raised his chin proudly, his eyes gleaming with confidence, and said, “I’ve learned almost everything. I can’t release my Armament Haki yet, but it’s enough for now.”
Hearing this, Marco frowned slightly and urged: “That won’t do, Ace. You are the captain of the squad, and it’s a bit unreasonable that you can’t even display your Armament Haki.”
Ace was a little unconvinced, so he took a step forward, put his arm around Di Xiu’s shoulders, and said half-jokingly, “Brother Di Xiu is still the deputy captain. He is just an ordinary person, and he doesn’t even know how to be domineering.”
Marco shook his head and was about to refute, but was shocked by the scene in front of him and was speechless.
Dishu slowly raised his right hand, and a flowing red-gold energy gradually covered half of his right forearm.
This scene made Marco’s eyes widen, his jaw almost dropped to the ground, he asked in shock:
“Vice Captain Luo…Deputy Captain Dishu, when did you learn the Armament Haki?”
“Oh? Do you think this is just Armament Haki?”
Di Xiu chuckled, as if he was not surprised by Marco’s surprise.
Then, the armament color domineering covering his right forearm began to flow, as if it had life.
Then, Di Xiu punched a landscape stone next to him!
There was a dull thud and the landscape stone shook slightly. On the surface, nothing seemed to have changed, but everyone present could feel an invisible force spreading in the air.
“No way…” Ace walked forward in disbelief, and following Dishu’s instruction, he gently touched the landscape stone with his right hand.
In an instant, the entire landscape stone collapsed, and the situation inside was revealed to everyone.
I saw that all the stones inside the landscape stone had been broken, and some had even turned into powder!
The crowd watching gasped. Seeing this scene, they finally understood that what Di Xiu had just used was the release of the armed color domineering!
This kind of ability usually requires a long period of practice to master, and there are very few people who can display their domineering aura.
By the way, isn’t Vice Captain Di Xiu an ordinary person?
How come I suddenly have armed color domineering?
What’s even more surprising is that the punch just now was so domineering!
Most people present had not yet learned this move, but Di Xiu was able to do it with just a single punch. It was really hard to believe.
Di Xiu did not expect that the power of this punch would be so great. He originally just wanted to show off his ability to break a rock with his bare hands, but he did not expect that it would trigger the release of his domineering aura.
The force burst out from his fist, as if tearing the air apart, and instantly smashed the huge rock into pieces.
Uh…this is troublesome. I don’t know how to explain it.
049 Your idea is totally feasible, and there is still a lot of room for improvement! (Old version)
Di Xiu secretly groaned in his heart. He originally just wanted to show off his strength a little, but he didn’t expect to cause such a big sensation.
Before he could open his mouth, the crew suddenly burst into deafening cheers. They were so enthusiastic that it seemed as if they had broken the stone with their own hands.
“It turns out that Vice Captain Di Xiu has always been taking care of our self-esteem. We have been pretending to be ordinary people before!” a crew member said excitedly, his eyes full of admiration.
“Lord Di Xiu is so thoughtful. He cares about our feelings. I have to give up my ridiculous self-esteem today! Lord Di Xiu, please accept my greeting!” Another crew member knelt down on the ground and saluted Di Xiu.
“Alas, I used to think that Vice Captain Di Xiu was just a scientist, and I wanted to teach him some self-defense tricks, but I didn’t expect that the clown was actually myself…” A crew member who once thought he was very good at physical skills sighed, with a look of shame on his face.
The crowd was deeply moved, and the scene was noisy. It was as if they had been teased. Everyone was shocked by Di Xiu’s strength, and at the same time, they regretted their previous ignorance.
Four days later,
On the rippling sea, the Moby Dick was like a huge sea beast, moving slowly forward. The navigators were very busy, they focused on observing and measuring various changes such as wind direction and air humidity, just to ensure the safe sailing of the ship.
Whitebeard stood on the deck, his eyes looking across the boundless ocean at the slightly undulating sea in the distance, his brows furrowed.
“Boy Di Xiu, is there really a sky-high whirlpool here that can help us land on the sky island?” White Beard turned around and asked sharply.
Di Xiu nodded firmly and said confidently: “Captain, don’t worry, this is the place, there is no mistake.” His familiarity and confidence in this sea area made everyone present feel much more at ease.
Ace said lightly, trying to ease the tense atmosphere: “Dad, don’t worry. Even if we don’t encounter the sky-high vortex, we can still go to the top of the west.”
He looked up at the sky; it was clear and there was no sign of any island.
But as long as it was Di Xiu who said it, he would believe it unconditionally!
Afterwards, Ace looked at Whitebeard again, his eyes full of admiration: “Dad, when you successfully strengthen the power of the Thunder Fruit, you will be the first user of the Three Fruits in the ocean!
With the Tremor-Tremor Fruit plus the Phoenix Form, plus the Thunder Fruit, your attack power, recovery power, and speed will become extremely terrifying, and you will definitely be able to easily defeat the other four emperors!”
Marco also said excitedly: “Yes, Dad, with the three fruits, you can definitely crush the other four emperors, and your domineering power is also very strong, you must be a super strong man!”
As Whitebeard listened to his sons talking to each other, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, as if he had returned to his youth.
Joz was grinning foolishly. When he thought about his father becoming so powerful, he seemed to see his own future. His eyes were shining with excitement, as if he had seen the day when he would become a strong man.
“Brother Dixu, I want to strengthen Kizaru’s Sparkle Fruit more than the Thunder Fruit.” Joz’s words were full of longing.
Di Xiu was slightly startled, and turned his eyes to Joz. Joz continued, “I have the ability of the Shining Fruit, which can turn me into a diamond. Diamonds are made up of multiple mirrors. If I add the ability of the Shining Fruit, my strength will definitely be greatly improved!”
Di Xiu nodded, and understood what Joz was thinking. He knew that Joz had always wanted to become stronger, and now that he had such an opportunity, Joz would naturally not miss it.
Joz became more and more excited as he spoke, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
Dishu was obviously moved by his words, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.
“Brother Di Xiu, think about it, when I launch an attack, I can use the mirror of my own diamond to refract and reflect, making the light attack unpredictable.” Joz continued, his tone full of confidence.
He paused, as if waiting for Di Xiu’s response. Sure enough, Di Xiu nodded, indicating that he understood what he meant.
“Moreover, I can also scatter, focus, and diffuse the light. This way, my attack power will be even stronger!” Joz added excitedly, as if he had already seen himself being invincible in battle.
“This is too powerful! I feel like this Pika Pika Nomi was made for me!” Joz couldn’t help but sigh, his desire for the Pika Pika Nomi was fully revealed.
However, he changed the subject and mentioned another possibility: “But if it is replaced with the Thunder Fruit, it will not achieve such an effect. This is why I want to strengthen the Flash Fruit.”
After listening to Joz’s explanation, Di Xiu was so surprised that he was almost speechless.
His eyes roamed back and forth over Joz, as if he was just getting to know this person.
The people around were also deeply shocked by this scene, their eyes filled with disbelief and awe.
“Refraction and reflection of light…” Di Xiu muttered in a low voice, “If we combine the principles of convex lenses and concave lenses… the final effect is definitely not a simple superposition!”
Although his voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by everyone.
My goodness, is Joz also a “physics expert”? !
This idea is too absolute!
Di Xiu couldn’t help but want to praise him.
What’s even more amazing is that Jozu’s own ability of the Shining Fruit is like a natural magnifying glass, which can instantly transform ordinary attacks into powerful moves!
Not only that, by skillfully using this ability, Joz can even concentrate the originally scattered attack energy into one point, increasing the destructive power exponentially.
Imagine that countless tiny but dense energy beams are constantly superimposed and finally converge into one beam.
How terrifying is that power?
If a few more light beams were added, their power would probably be comparable to that of the ancient weapon – the Heavenly King!
“Brother Qiao, your idea is totally feasible, and there is still a lot of room for development!”
Di Xiu said affirmatively, his tone full of appreciation and support for Brother Qiao’s proposal.
He turned his gaze to the white-bearded man standing beside him and continued, “Captain, leave a spot for Brother Qiao out of the 5 billion.”
After hearing this, Whitebeard laughed heartily and said, “Gulala, Dishu boy, Jozi, just make your own decisions.” His eyes showed his trust and expectation for Dishu, as if to say, “You are the deputy captain now, you have to take responsibility, don’t blame an old man like me for everything.”
050 Newcomer Enelu, come out and get hurt and bleed! (Old version)
When Dishu heard Whitebeard’s words, he was slightly stunned, but quickly nodded, indicating that he understood and accepted the responsibility.
“Yes, Captain, I’ll do my best,” he responded.
At this time, Brother Qiao stood up excitedly and thanked Di Xiu and White Beard: “Hahaha, thank you, Dad, thank you, Brother Di Xiu! I will definitely cherish this opportunity and will not let you down!”
Qiao Zi looked so excited that the others felt itchy.
Captains such as Marco and Ace sent their warm congratulations. Compared to the Pika Pika Nomi, Ace prefers Akainu’s Magma Fruit. He thinks the Magma Fruit is very strong in both destructive power and explosive power!
Just as a few people were talking and laughing, the originally calm sea surface in front of them suddenly changed!
A huge whirlpool appeared quietly, and its powerful attraction instantly changed the course of the Moby Dick!
This sudden change surprised everyone.
The whirlpool was huge in scale and incredible in power, with a diameter of several nautical miles. It was like a terrifying monster in the sea with its mouth wide open, ready to swallow everything that approached it.
As the ship was gradually drawn into the whirlpool, the surrounding sea water began to churn violently, creating huge waves several meters high that constantly hit the hull and made a deafening sound.
Faced with such a spectacular and dangerous scene, everyone on the boat held their breath nervously, their hearts filled with awe and uneasiness.
“Oh my god, the whirlpool is so big, no wonder it can sweep people up to the sky in an instant.”
“This vortex is too deep! It’s like when you look into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you.”
“Look at the sea level! It has dropped by five centimeters and is still dropping!”
“Hiss… I can’t imagine how spectacular it will be when it erupts.”
“Everyone hold on to the handrails, or you will be thrown off.” Di Xiu made a joke.
Others hurriedly grabbed the handrails, railings, and anything else they could hold on to, holding on tightly to avoid being thrown out by the sudden powerful force.
Someone wanted to say something, maybe to comfort everyone, or maybe to express their own horror.
But the words haven’t come out yet.
Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering roar.
It seemed as if the whole world was shaking!
Bang!
A thick water column with a diameter of several miles suddenly spurted out from the center of the vortex and rushed straight into the sky. This scene was magnificent and shocking.
The sharks that didn’t have time to escape, as well as the huge sea kings, were all sucked into the whirlpool and rushed into the sky along with the water column, as if a terrible natural disaster was taking place.
Many fish were thrown out of the whirlpool due to the strong centrifugal force, and fell heavily onto the sea surface from mid-air. They were instantly broken into pieces and died on the spot!
The hull shook violently under the impact of this force, and it felt like it might capsize at any time.
The people on the boat were terrified. Some of the timid ones were even frightened to faint. Fortunately, their companions nearby supported them in time, otherwise they might have fallen into the rough sea and their lives would have been in danger.
soon,
Under the control of experienced navigators, the Moby Dick was firmly under control!
They directed the crew to adjust the course in an orderly manner, and every action was professional and precise.
As the ship’s speed increased to the limit, coupled with the additional thrust brought by the towering water column, the speed of the entire ship increased a lot!
At this moment, the surrounding waves were stirred up into high waves, and the ship was like a sharp sword, rushing towards the vast sky at an astonishing speed, presenting an unprecedented spectacular scene!
“Wuhu~” Ace waved his arms against the fierce wind, his face filled with uncontrollable joy, “Brother Di Xiu, we succeeded!” His voice sounded particularly excited in the whistling wind.
Marco also felt this joy. He looked at the approaching clouds, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
“It’s been a long time since I felt this exciting. Sky Island is really exciting.” He muttered to himself, as if he had already seen that mysterious place.
Di Xiu stood quietly on the deck, looking deeply at the increasingly distant Gaya Island, “From now on, Sky Island will be my base, and I will turn it into an ideal country!”
“Such thick clouds are rare.”
“Idiot, this is the White Sea that the deputy captain mentioned yesterday!”
“I can see you didn’t listen carefully. The White Sea is 7,000 meters above the ground! And the Sky Island is above the White Sea, which is 10,000 meters in the air!”
A group of people were discussing excitedly. After crossing the White Sea, after a long time, they finally arrived at the Baibai Sea!
This place seems to be shrouded in a layer of mysterious white. Looking around, everything around is pure and dazzling white.
The sunlight shines on this white ocean, reflecting a dazzling light that makes it almost impossible to open your eyes.
The air is filled with a fresh and slightly cool scent, making even breathing feel particularly comfortable.
The Moby Dick sailed slowly in the white ocean, its hull swaying gently with the waves.
The crew stood on the deck, looking around excitedly, trying to capture every new sight.
Someone pointed into the distance and shouted, “Look over there! There seems to be something different.”
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and indeed saw the outline of an island in front of them. It was a small island suspended in the air, like a miracle that fell from the sky, floating quietly in this white world.
The island is lush and green, which contrasts sharply with the white surroundings, making it appear more vibrant and mysterious.
Everyone was excited to see this scene.
“Sky Island!”
“Look, we’ve finally reached Sky Island!”
“Thunder Fruit, here I come!”
“Newbie Enelu, come out and get hurt and bleed!”
“First put in a fish weighing 10 or 8 kilograms, then keep it in a pen, and take its blood whenever you need it!”
“Hahaha, you’re such a bad guy!”
As they chatted and laughed, the Moby Dick slowly approached the shore, and a group of people began to land on the island!
Gaya Island,
Teach roared angrily, looking at the Moby Dick flying into the sky, his face was confused, but more of it was anger!
Those damn guys took away the Zhen Zhen Fruit that he had been longing for!
“Damn it, I’m one step late again!”
Teach angrily punched the rock on the shore. With a loud bang, the reef shattered instantly and debris flew everywhere.
His eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness.
“Sky Island, humph!”
Tikki said through gritted teeth, his voice carrying a hint of coldness and murderous intent.
“Even if you run to the ends of the earth, I, Teach, will not let you go!”
051 Brothers, fight back hard! (Old version)
His gaze was firm and fierce, as if it could penetrate all obstacles and find those who had taken away his precious fruit.
The power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is not only a symbol of great power for him, but also the key to realizing his ambitions.
Losing it would mean a serious setback to his plans.
After uttering a few more vicious words, Teach turned and walked into the jungle, his figure quickly disappearing among the dense trees.
He wanted to go to the base left by the Whitebeard Pirates to see if he could find some clues.
He knew that time was running out and every minute and every second was crucial.
After Teach left, Bellamy carefully crawled out from the crack in the stone. His heart was still pounding, and he felt like he had just walked through the gates of hell.
He looked in the direction where Teach disappeared, his heart filled with fear, yet at the same time he was secretly glad that he had escaped.
He reached out and gently patted his chest, trying to calm his pounding heart. Then, he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, as if he wanted to expel all the tension and fear he had just felt.
“It was too dangerous! That guy’s name is Teach? Why have I never heard of this name?” Bellamy frowned and muttered softly.
He recalled Teach’s evil eyes and that chilling cold smile, and suddenly felt a chill on his back.
“Looking at his appearance, he is not a good person.”
Bellamy narrowed his eyes, lost in thought.
He began to carefully recall everything that had just happened, hoping to find some useful clues.
“This guy seems to have a deep hatred for the Whitebeard Pirates. He has been secretly observing here. He must be planning something.” Bellamy thought to himself.
Suddenly, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a sly smile.
“Hehe, finally there’s some valuable information. As long as it’s related to the Whitebeard Pirates, this information will be useful!”
Bellamy knew that this information was extremely important to him and might be the key to completing his mission.
At this moment, Bellamy looked up at the sky and found that the spectacular water column that had risen into the sky had disappeared completely.
He couldn’t help but sigh, his heart full of helplessness and disappointment.
“Alas, I am still a step too late. I had planned to endure the humiliation and complete the task assigned by my idol, but now, everything is gone.”
Bellamy shook his head, looking frustrated.
Doflamingo is coming tomorrow, and he has to think of a reasonable reason to deal with the situation that follows.
“It seems that I need to think carefully about how to make up a reasonable excuse…”
As Bellamy thought about this, he began to figure out what to do next.
That evening, many pirate ships suddenly appeared near Gaya Island. These ships were all flying eye-catching skull and crossbones flags, which were particularly conspicuous.
The pirates on the ship were all very arrogant and did not hide their strength and ambitions.
“Hahaha, the first one to trade with Whitebeard will definitely be me, the Deadly Axe King Hajime!” A tall and strong pirate shouted loudly, holding a huge axe in his hand, his eyes full of confidence.
“Stop talking nonsense! With your skills, you can’t even withstand a single blow from me. I should be the first one to make the deal!” another pirate responded with disdain. He was agile and the sword in his hand was shining coldly.
“Chicken chick chick, our Kun Kun Pirates are here. If you don’t want to get beaten, get out of our way. Come and have a taste of my Iron Mountain Backpack!” A group of strangely dressed people walked down from the pirate ship, waving their weapons and rushing towards the shore aggressively.
More and more pirate ships were scrambling to approach the shore, and each ship was filled with gifts they had carefully prepared to exchange for devil fruits.
These gifts are extremely valuable, and they were obtained at great cost in order to gain powerful strength.
As soon as the ship approached the island, the pirates jumped off the deck and rushed towards the island, fearing that they would miss the opportunity to exchange devil fruits with the Four Emperors Whitebeard.
However, in this fierce competition, not all pirates can get what they want.
Those pirate groups that ran slower, seeing that they were falling behind, were suddenly filled with resentment and anger.
So, they directly chose the simplest and most brutal way – to start fighting!
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The sound of artillery fire rang out one after another, flames splashed everywhere, and the whole island seemed to be on fire!
The explosions were accompanied by screams, and groups of people were blown away. The scene was extremely tragic.
The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, making it almost hard to breathe.
“Damn it! You actually attacked me by surprise. That’s so unsportsmanlike!”
A wounded captain roared angrily, his voice filled with hatred for the enemy and desire for victory.
“Brothers, fight back hard!”
He brandished the weapon in his hand and led his men to fight back.
On the other side,
“Hit them hard, beat them to death! Let them know that we, the Kun Kun Pirates, are not easy to bully!”
Another captain was also loudly commanding his team. His eyes were firm and cold, and he was obviously ready to fight to the death.
“Beat them! Beat them all to death!”
More commands came from all directions, every word full of power and determination.
In an instant, the entire island turned into a huge battlefield. There were blazing flames and flashing swords everywhere, and there was hardly a single intact spot.
This scene is enough to prove how attractive the devil fruit is to these pirates.
The next day, the first rays of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone on the port of Gaya Island. A group of pirates arrived here with anger and disappointment.
They originally thought that they could find the legendary Whitebeard Pirates here, and obtain huge wealth or important information from them.
But the reality dealt them a heavy blow – the entire island was unusually quiet, and there was absolutely no sign of any large-scale pirate activity recently.
Even so, this group of pirates who were unwilling to give up decided to stay and continue their search. They hoped to discover some hidden secrets or find left behind treasures on this seemingly ordinary island.
As the pirates dispersed and carefully explored every corner of the island,
A gorgeously decorated and uniquely designed ship slowly approached the dock. Instead of the common pirate flag, the ship had a few golden characters on its hull: “Don Quixote”.
It was Doflamingo who came!
After the ship docked, Doflamingo walked down from the deck.
052 Let’s retreat quickly. It’s not wise to fight the navy now. (Old version)
He was holding a Den Den Mushi in his hand, listening to the other party’s words with a serious expression, and then quickly hung up the phone. He pointed southeast and said, “Go over there.”
There was a hint of urgency and dissatisfaction in his tone, as if the news he had just received made him very unhappy.
This sudden order made the other cadres feel a little nervous, and at the same time aroused their curiosity about what would happen next.
Ten minutes later,
Bellamy stood in front of his idol, Doflamingo, his body couldn’t help but tremble slightly, his face full of panic.
He thought about it for a long time and finally decided to tell the truth.
After all, lying in front of a powerful person like Doflamingo is simply seeking death.
After he reported everything truthfully, Doflamingo did not react immediately after listening. He just frowned and said nothing.
The oppressive feeling brought by this silence made Bellamy feel unprecedented fear. He felt like he was about to pee his pants!
“Bellamy, you don’t have to be so nervous.”
What Bellamy didn’t expect was that Doflamingo suddenly spoke, with a barely perceptible gentleness in his tone, “It’s not your fault.”
Doflamingo was clear about his grudges, and his attitude towards Bellamy seemed to have softened a bit at this point.
Then he looked up at the sky, with a hint of curiosity and thought in his eyes.
“I didn’t expect that the Whitebeard Pirates would actually go looking for the legendary Sky Island.”
Doflamingo then looked around and saw more and more people were heading towards Jaya Island.
The purpose of these people is very clear, they all want to find the Whitebeard Pirates and then obtain the legendary double fruit ability.
“Hmph! A bunch of useless people trying to make a living on the sea, yet you still want to gain the power of dual fruits? Don’t you even consider whether you are worthy of them?” Doflamingo said coldly, his tone full of disdain and contempt.
The other family members also snorted with disdain, their eyes full of contempt for the weak.
In this cruel ocean, only the strong can survive, while the weak can only be trampled underfoot and become stepping stones for others to advance.
Diamante saw this and quickly stepped forward to suggest: “Brother Ming, there is nothing to linger here. I think the Whitebeard Pirates will definitely show up again. When they show up again, if we are the first to arrive, we will definitely be able to obtain the dual fruit ability!”
Doflamingo listened, pondered for a while, then slowly stood up, looked up and looked ahead, his eyes deep and firm, as if he could see through the fog and see the future.
However, just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly frowned and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
“What was that…” He muttered quietly, a hint of uncertainty in his voice.
The others followed his gaze and saw many warships appearing on the sea, densely packed and surrounding each other, approaching Gaya Island where they were!
The flags on these warships flashed coldly under the sunlight, giving people an ominous feeling.
“It’s the Navy?!”
“How come they are here?!”
Doflamingo and his team were suddenly surrounded by the navy, which surprised and angered them.
The action they originally planned did not take into account a direct conflict with the navy, but the situation now clearly exceeded their expectations.
“Oops, we’re being made scapegoats!”
The other family members immediately reacted and realized that the appearance of the navy this time was most likely due to the previous actions of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Although they were not involved, they were on Gaya Island and the Navy also targeted them.
This feeling of being innocently implicated made Doflamingo very angry.
“Bang bang bang bang, damn Whitebeard Pirates, they’re still harming us after they left!”
“The navy is getting closer, we must make a decision immediately, there is no time to hesitate!”
“Brother Ming, let’s retreat quickly. It’s not wise to confront the navy now.”
Doflamingo was silent for a while, looking very unhappy.
He knew in his heart that this time he was surrounded by the navy and had to take the blame for Whitebeard for no reason. It was the first time he suffered such a big loss in all his time!
“Look at the navy’s posture. There are so many warships, almost reaching the scale of the Demon Slayer Order!”
After observing the situation around him, Doflamingo became more certain of his judgment.
The navy has sent a large number of troops this time, apparently to completely eliminate the pirate forces in this area.
“We can’t take the blame for Whitebeard!”
“Retreat! Break out from the rear!”
Finally, Doflamingo made a decision that a fight with the navy would only result in heavy losses. The only way now was to find a breakthrough and evacuate quickly!
Not long after Doflamingo left, the sound of navy artillery fire “crackled”!
One after another, pitch-black shells fell straight down from the sky, trailing long black tongues of fire behind them, like mad dragons, viciously diving into the dense jungle of Gaya Island.
“BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!”
The ear-piercing explosions echoed across the entire island, instantly breaking the originally peaceful and harmonious atmosphere here.
The pirates who were searching for clues in the forest never expected to encounter such a sudden attack. Many pirates were directly hit by the shells and died on the spot. The blood “gurgled” out and mixed with the soil, forming a scene that was frightening to look at.
The pirates who managed to survive were all terrified. They had never seen such a fierce and accurate attack. For a moment, they were all in extreme panic.
Some pirates were so panicked that they forgot where to run and just kept running around like headless flies;
Some pirates were thinking of finding a place to hide quickly to avoid being caught in the next round of attacks.
When they finally came to their senses and started running desperately, what appeared before their eyes were the densely packed warships parked on the coastline and the naval soldiers in neat uniforms, holding weapons in their hands, ready for battle.
Faced with so many naval warships, even those pirates who were usually ferocious and fearless felt unprecedented pressure and were filled with despair.
053 Once we confront them head-on, it will be very difficult to escape unscathed (old version)
For these guys who are used to being domineering on the sea, it seems that the only thing they can do now is to quickly escape from this terrible place that is like hell.
“Damn it! Where did these navy men come from? There are so many of them!”
“One, two, three, four, five, six, seven… ten, I can’t count them all!”
“Oh my God! This is the Demon Slayer Order!”
“The Navy has actually issued a demon-killing order against Gaya Island. Everyone, run!”
“A demon-killing order that can destroy everything!”
The pirates were in complete chaos, and they ran desperately towards the coast, all wanting to quickly board the pirate ship parked there, hoping to break through the siege and escape from this dangerous place.
But just as they were running forward in panic, suddenly, a series of deafening explosions were heard in the sky – it turned out that these shells were specifically aimed at their ship!
With one loud roar after another, one pirate ship after another was blown to pieces under the huge impact force, and debris flew everywhere. The scene was simply too tragic!
Seeing this, some pirates who were unwilling to die like this immediately changed direction and ran towards the depths of the forest, hoping to find a glimmer of hope there;
Some pirates were completely desperate. They watched their ships being blown up and rushed like crazy towards the ships that had not been blown up or were only slightly damaged, hoping to get a chance to escape by robbing other people’s ships.
In just a few moments, the whole place became like hell on earth:
Some people fought with their companions in order to grab limited resources;
Some people desperately want to leave here as soon as possible… Various tragic things happen one after another, and the air is full of fear and despair.
On the naval ship, Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel stood in front of the command desk, his eyes shining sharply, staring straight ahead.
The fire on Gaya Island was burning raging. Even from a long distance away, the scorching heat seemed to be transmitted through the air, making people feel uncomfortable.
“Prepare to fire the second wave of shells!” Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel’s voice was firm and powerful, echoing throughout the entire bridge. “The target is still the pirate ship on the shore. Hit it hard! We must let these pirates know that if they dare to challenge the majesty of our navy, they will pay the price!”
At the command, the soldiers acted quickly, adjusting the angle of the muzzle, loading shells… everything went on in an orderly manner.
Not long after, a loud “boom” broke the calm of the sea, followed by a series of dense explosions – the shells fired by the warships hit the target area accurately.
The huge impact force not only blew up several ships parked on the shore, but also stirred up tall water columns, which reflected dazzling light under the sunlight.
But Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel had no intention of stopping just like that.
“Prepare for the third wave of artillery shells!” He then gave the order, “Full coverage, suppress all areas, and launch a devastating attack! Don’t give the enemy any chance to breathe!”
This time, more artillery fire joined the battle!
The entire island seemed to be shrouded in fire and smoke!
Wherever a shell landed, a huge hole would appear or the original building would be blown into a pile of ruins or razed to the ground.
There was a burnt smell in the air, and even the sky was dyed dark red!
At this time, a major general beside Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel felt a little reluctant and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel, should we consider evacuating the civilians on the island first? After all…”
Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel snorted coldly and interrupted him directly.
His eyes were cold and resolute as he said, “This island was occupied by the Whitebeard Pirates several months ago. They cleared out everyone on the island, and there are no civilians left.
So don’t worry about anything else and just hit me hard!
Especially these pirates, if you let one go, you will all be in trouble!”
“Yes!” the officer responded immediately, thinking to himself that not even a mosquito could fly out of here.
“Yes!” The other soldiers responded in unison, their morale high.
They all gathered their strength and fired recklessly, as if they wanted to vent all their anger and hatred on the enemy.
At this moment, the navy officially declared war on the Four Emperors!
This news made everyone extremely excited.
They all knew that there was a naval admiral resting on the warship, which meant that their action had the support of the highest level.
Pirates and all must die!
Doflamingo stood in a secluded corner, his eyes fixed on his own pirate ship shaking under the attack of naval gunfire.
The deck and stern of the ship were blown apart by the gunfire.
Although the two shells did not cause fatal damage to the ship and the ship was still able to sail, the navy’s provocative behavior completely angered him.
“Boiling, boiling, boiling, boiling! You are such a navy!” He roared angrily, anger almost bursting from his eyes. “So what if you are a navy? Since you are here, just sink two warships before leaving!”
When Torrebol heard this, he was so scared that his legs went weak and he almost fell down. He hurriedly said, “I say, Dover, now is not the time to be impulsive!” His voice was full of anxiety and worry.
Diamante also frowned, trying to persuade Doflamingo with more rational words: “The Navy actually used the Demon Slayer Order, and they also know that the possibility of the Whitebeard Pirates being here is extremely small.
This means that there must be a general on a lieutenant general-level warship.
Once we confront them head-on, it will be very difficult to escape unscathed.”
After listening to the advice of the two executives, Doflamingo took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.
He knew in his heart that staying calm was the most important thing now.
After a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word: “Go!”
After receiving the order, everyone immediately ran towards the pirate ship.
Bellamy followed closely behind, not saying a word the whole time.
He knew in his heart that in this tense situation, not saying anything was the wisest option;
Otherwise, if you accidentally annoy someone, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The air was filled with a tense and oppressive atmosphere. Everyone moved cautiously for fear of causing any noise.
054 These indigenous people are also a problem (old version)
Deep inside the original station, Teach stood alone in the empty laboratory.
The surroundings were eerily quiet, with only the occasional sound of gunfire breaking the silence.
He looked around and saw the ground was littered with waste paper. Apart from that, there was nothing useful left.
The battle outside was becoming more and more intense, and the sound of gunfire was becoming louder and louder. It was obvious that the navy was going to sink Gaya Island!
After learning the news, Teach felt even more depressed.
Especially when he heard that the navy had actually issued an order to exterminate demons on the entire island, his anger suddenly rose up.
“Damn Whitebeard! And those damn navy!” He gritted his teeth and said viciously, his eyes full of hatred and unwillingness.
The anger erupted like a volcano, making his breathing rapid and his face flushed red from excitement.
Finally, he could not bear the strong emotional impact. A mouthful of blood spurted out from the corner of his mouth and dripped onto the cold ground!
“As long as I, Teach, am alive, I will never let you go!” he shouted loudly, his voice filled with incomparable determination and anger.
He knew that if he stayed here any longer, he would just become a sitting duck for the enemy.
So, at the last moment, he also chose to escape from this place full of memories.
After all, in this situation, staying would only lead to being caught.
“You bastards, you ran away and still hurt me!”
Before leaving, he cursed at the empty room and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
On the shore, most of the pirates gave up resistance completely.
They discovered in despair that no matter where they fled, they would be attacked by merciless artillery fire.
Those cannons seemed to have eyes, chasing and bombing them closely.
At this moment, their ship had been beaten to pieces and the entire island was covered by artillery fire from all directions, leaving them with no way to escape.
“Damn it, let’s fight these navy guys!” a pirate shouted angrily, his eyes full of unwillingness.
“No one can judge me, I am the Pirate King!”
“You are a bunch of trash shouting about justice all day long and acting as running dogs for the Celestial Dragons. Open your eyes and see who is the scourge on the sea!” The Kun Kun Pirates also started cursing with sharp words, directly accusing the corruption and hypocrisy behind the navy.
However, even if the pirates are very motivated at the moment, their resistance is useless in the face of the overwhelming firepower of the navy.
The artillery fire kept falling like raindrops, and the pirates’ figures were gradually submerged in smoke and flames.
At the same time, Gaya Island was completely destroyed in this fierce battle and disappeared completely from the map.
The once bustling island is now reduced to ruins and debris, a victim of the war.
In the outer area of ​​Sky Island, there is an Angel Island.
On this day, the sun was shining brightly and the sea breeze was blowing gently. On the beach near the shore, a large group of people appeared and were heading towards Angel Island.
The number of people in this group is quite large, and it is almost impossible not to attract other people’s attention.
It was obvious that they had no idea that a fierce battle was going on below the island.
Ace was especially immersed in the joy of his newly discovered “toy”. This “toy” was a shock shell he had picked up.
“Brother Dixiu! Look at this shell, it’s amazing!” Ace said loudly excitedly.
In his hand he held the small shell that looked ordinary but had incredible power.
“It can actually absorb the attacks I send out and bounce them back!”
As he said this, Ace pressed the impact shell tightly against his chest, intending to try it again to see how effective it was.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.
There was a loud “bang” and Ace’s chest was suddenly hit by a powerful force, and his body was directly pierced!
But surprisingly, no blood flowed from the wound, but instead a flame as bright as blood ignited. This flame was one of the Phoenix’s unique and iconic abilities.
As the flames slowly burned, Ace’s body began to recover quickly. His originally serious injuries were greatly alleviated in a short period of time, and even completely healed.
“Haha, that’s great!” Ace was so happy, as if he had found some rare treasure. He carefully put the magical impact shell into his arms.
Ace was extremely satisfied and excited about this unexpected gain. Then he looked at Di Xiu.
“Brother Dixiu, where is the repelling shell that you mentioned before, which is ten times more powerful than the impact shell? I’ve been looking for it for a long time and can’t find it.” Ace asked anxiously, his eyes full of anticipation and a hint of anxiety.
Di Xiu raised his head and smiled. The Angel Island in front of him gradually revealed its outline. The sea breeze gently brushed his cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness. He looked at Ace and said:
“These special shells are not easy to find.” Di Xiu spoke slowly, with a hint of amusement in his voice.
“Those shellfish with special functions have long been collected by the indigenous people here. It’s already very lucky to find an impact shell.”
After hearing this, Ace showed a hint of disappointment on his face.
He originally thought that he could find the Paijibei this time, but he didn’t expect to encounter such difficulties.
Di Xiu pointed ahead and said to Ace, “Angel Island is in front. If you want something, just go to the island and buy it. It’s much easier than looking for it yourself.”
Ace looked in the direction of Dishu’s finger, and saw Angel Island in the distance, looking particularly beautiful under the sunlight.
The buildings on the island are arranged in an orderly manner, and the streets are bustling with people coming and going.
“We’re here so soon?” Ace also looked ahead. The avenue of Angel Island had appeared in front of everyone.
I saw that the people here were dressed no differently from the people down below the island, the only difference was that they all had a pair of small white wings on their backs.
“Are these people really angels?” Joz scratched his head, his heart full of doubts and he couldn’t figure it out.
Marco also stepped forward and said, “These natives are also a problem.”
Di Xiu responded: “Don’t worry about these for now, there will always be a place where they can be used in the future.”
