One Piece: The Celestial Dragons' Self-Cultivation

Page 45

You've already kidnapped a Celestial Dragon, can't you be a bigger target?

Blake was speechless, not knowing where to even begin his rant.

As Gerald lunged forward, Black's hand, imbued with Armament Haki, Conqueror's Haki, and demonic energy, landed squarely on Gerald's head.

"You're addicted to kings too?"

"I've helped you quit, you're welcome!"

The Temple ship shook violently.

Gerald had fallen to the ground and was fast asleep.

Chapter 60 Use it if there are conditions

The people in this world are strange.

Even lawless pirates or slaves about to be killed never considered killing the Celestial Dragons.

Many people are not even aware that they can resist.

It's unreasonable to say they're afraid of retaliation from the world government.

Because they are not even afraid of death.

It seems that only the descendants of D would have the intention to harm the Celestial Dragons.

Even Gerald has started comparing himself to a Marine Admiral.

Even so, all he wanted to do was take Blake hostage and escape.

When Gerald woke up, he found himself handcuffed again.

Under the influence of the sea stone chains, he had no strength left in his body.

He sighed deeply and sank into despair.

Black, of course, didn't care about Gerald's condition and left the cell after the experiment was completed.

The environment down there made him very uncomfortable.

Stella waited outside the door, looking down at his mud-stained boots.

"Your Highness, let me help you change your clothes first."

Blake nodded and took Stella back to the room.

It's inevitable that hands and feet will touch each other during the changing process, but Blake didn't do anything more outrageous today.

The experiment he had just witnessed had given him great inspiration, but he still needed to sort it out.

Back on deck, Blake tossed Perona, who was trying to cause trouble, aside and began to ponder what had just happened.

A Devil Fruit user, by adding the same ability card, can directly awaken their Devil Fruit ability.

So is this an isolated case or a stable phenomenon?

This needs to be confirmed by further experiments.

If it were just an isolated case, that would be fine.

If everyone could awaken their Devil Fruit abilities in this way, Black would have the potential to mass-produce awakened users.

Since an ability user can awaken their ability by adding an ability card, then two identical ability cards should also be able to awaken directly.

In addition, what would happen if you used another ability card while in the awakened state?

These all need to be verified.

This is also why Black did not deal with Gerald immediately; he wanted to keep him around to continue the experiment.

Of course, Gerald will never see anyone else again.

Blake took out a glittering gold card and twirled it in his hand.

This is the Glint-Glint Fruit ability card that was leaked from young Kizaru a long time ago.

Black certainly wouldn't go looking for Kizaru and use his ability card on a guy who was suspected of being a Revolutionary Army spy.

However, the card system allows for duplicate draws, so there's a possibility of drawing the young Kizaru again.

In addition, there are adult Kizaru and elderly Kizaru.

The probability of getting three ability cards is not small.

Thinking of this, Blake called out:

"Kerla!"

Kella jogged up to Blake.

Kella's face was flushed as she trained, and fine beads of sweat clung to her golden hair on her forehead.

Blake reached out and tidied her sideburns:

"Give you something good!"

As he spoke, Black activated the ability card in his hand.

The card transformed into golden light and flowed into Kera's body.

"Ugh...it's that feeling again."

A warm current surged through her body, and Kella couldn't help but sob again.

Having already used an ability card once before, she naturally knew that this was an enhancement that Black had given her.

She forced herself to suppress any more shameful sounds, afraid of being discovered by the others on deck.

A moment later, as the heat dissipated, Kella opened her eyes.

Then Blake took out a diamond-encrusted dagger and stabbed at her.

Kerla suppressed her body's instinctive urge to dodge and was stabbed in the shoulder without flinching.

Kerla felt no pain at all and looked down at her shoulder.

Golden light flowed around the wound, and the punctured area was healing rapidly.

"This is... the elementalization of the natural world?"

"I ate a Devil Fruit?"

Having followed Blake for so long, Kella has gained a lot of experience and knowledge.

Although they didn't know that the Glint-Glint Fruit had been eaten, they were very familiar with the characteristics of Devil Fruits.

Blake smiled and hugged her, whispering:

"It's a secret."

"You can't tell anyone except your older sisters, and you can't show it in front of outsiders."

"Do you understand?"

Kella nodded vigorously, her little face serious, and said solemnly:

"Your Highness, rest assured, I will absolutely not let anyone find out."

It was already incredible that Blake could improve her physical abilities.

Now they can even directly bestow Devil Fruit abilities.

Kerla had a vague idea of ​​what this meant and was well aware of the seriousness of the matter, so he naturally said he would keep quiet.

Blake patted her little head:

"Go and continue your cultivation."

"No matter what kind of Devil Fruit it is, one's own physical strength is the most important thing."

Blake intends to train Kella to be his first combatant.

Mandy is going to be sent abroad, and Blake can't always take CP with him.

We can't just take matters into our own hands every time we encounter a problem, can we?

That would be too degrading.

Black even planned to have Koala deal with Sabo when facing the Revolutionary Army in the future, which would satisfy his perverse sense of humor.

After Kella left, Blake called Stella over and instructed her to call CP over.

Blake didn't like his life being disturbed, so his accompanying CP was always housed in the back cabin.

As a couple, they certainly wouldn't dare use Observation Haki to spy on the Celestial Dragons' privacy at any time.

This is why Black dared to use the ability card on Kera directly on the ship.

The two CPs used "Shave" to rush to Blake and kneel down on one knee:

"Lord Black Saint".

Blake made a nasal sound that was difficult to understand:

"Send a message back and ask the government to find me a Peregrine Falcon Fruit user and a Giant Tortoise Fruit user."

"I want them to be my slaves! They'll perform for me, like peregrine falcons catching turtles!"

"Yes, Lord Black!"

The two CPs immediately agreed and went back to relay the message.

If the conditions are right, then we should use it.

Having two strange slaves fight each other is exactly in line with the Celestial Dragons' character.

These kinds of things don't need to go through the Five Elders; the CP members can handle them themselves.

Blake was looking for these two ability users because he still had two ability cards in his possession.

He wanted to use them to determine the success rate of awakening.

After this experiment, Blake became even more interested in the ability users within the card space.

He turned his gaze to the old man with the white beard.

Whitebeard's attack power was indeed strong during the Marineford War, and his combat skills were also very proficient.

But Whitebeard's bursts of power at that time could not be sustained for many more times.

With Blake's current strength, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to defeat his opponent.

Blake rubbed his hands together and then channeled his consciousness into the system space.

Click on the card of the old man with the white beard.

"System! Enter battle!"

Chapter 61 Whitebeard! You've given yourself away!

Black appeared in the card space, a hundred meters away, where the tall figure of the white-bearded man was facing him from afar.

"What? Do all you Four Emperors like to choose towns as your battlefields?"

Blake carried a long sword, the dark patterns on the scabbard gleaming with a cold metallic sheen in the dim light.

The clash of their Conqueror's Haki caused nearby houses to creak and cracks to appear on the load-bearing pillars.

Whitebeard's appearance was similar to that during the Marineford War, but his wrinkled hands gripped the "Murakumogiri" so tightly that it made a whirring sound like tearing silk.

"Your knife is much better maintained than your hands."

Blake muttered a complaint and jumped up.

Because in the future vision he foresaw with his Observation Haki, the entire ground was cracking like glass.

The next moment, Whitebeard's naginata swept across, tearing the air apart instantly!

Nearby houses were reduced to dust by the tremors, and the shockwave, carrying debris, exploded in a fan shape.

Blake leaped into the air, drawing his long sword.

The black-purple blade formed from Armament Haki cleaved through the oncoming shockwave, and the slash flew straight toward Whitebeard.
