The First Nine-Star Devil Fruit Ability!
"Hehehe--"
Before Kizaru could react, a wild, arrogant laugh drifted down from the sky.
The Golden Lion II resembled a proud and arrogant golden bird, plummeting rapidly from the sky to the side of a government warship.
This is not a "copy of King Golden Lion II," but the genuine Homies Golden Lion II.
Out of "respect" for Imu and the Gorosei.
For this operation, Storm brought the entire Dawn Pirates with him at once.
After all, if the targets were only Kizaru and Saint Gringu, Storm wouldn't have needed to go to such lengths.
He can simply impersonate "Whitebeard the Second." and take the stage himself.
But what he didn't expect was that Saint Gringu, this "candidate for the Gorosei," really had no special connection with Imu.
Many of Storm's previous contingency plans were wasted because of this flawed reasoning.
Um...
It's not really a waste.
As a "transportation tool," Golden Lion II was undoubtedly quite outstanding.
"This is really... terrifying~"
Kizaru glanced at Golden Lion II., then looked up at the clouds above.
He could clearly sense that behind the clouds, several incredibly powerful auras were hidden.
Is this the Dawn Pirates!?
I really don't know where that guy Storm found so many monsters.
Whitebeard the Second., Golden Lion II...
"For some reason, I feel like even the Rocks Pirates from decades ago couldn't compare to the Dawn Pirates ~"
Kizaru sighed, feigning nonchalance.
Leaving aside the power gap between the "Red Dragon Emperor" and "Rocks"...
They only refer to "Whitebeard" and "Whitebeard the Second."
Even at his peak, could Whitebeard have defeated Figarland Saint Gringu so easily?
I'm afraid not.
From this perspective, Whitebeard the Second.'s strength undoubtedly surpasses that of the real Whitebeard.
If we add "Red Dragon Emperor" to that...
The Dawn Pirates already possess two super-strong individuals who can be described as "breaking the mold".
What do the Rocks Pirates have to compare to the Dawn Pirates?
While sighing, Kizaru also felt a surge of relief.
One way or another.
The Dawn Pirates are the pirate crew of the Red Dragon Emperor.
The Red Dragon Emperor is also the White Dragon Emperor and New Marine Fleet Admiral Candidate.
If you calculate it this way...
The strength of the Dawn Pirates is equivalent to the strength of the New Marines.
'I'm outta here...'
The next second, Kizaru abandoned the government warship and the Saint Gringu that had fallen into the deep sea without hesitation, and chose to run away.
Of course he had to run!
Are we supposed to stay here and continue fighting Whitebeard the Second.?
Not to mention.
Kizaru came to the New World to give Figarland Saint Gringu and the World Government warship as a "gift" to Storm.
Now that his mission is complete, he naturally has to return to Mary Geoise to report back (crossed out) – admit his mistake.
A golden light vanished instantly on the horizon of the New World.
Kizaru's "escape" was incredibly swift and decisive.
Storm didn't pay any attention. His gaze fell on the warship, his eyes narrowed slightly, and an astonishing [Conqueror's Haki] swept out like a storm, "cleaning" the government warship inside and out.
When he arrived, he had already used the power of the [Rumble-Rumble Fruit] to sever the connection between the government warship and Mary Geoise.
The purpose of unleashing a burst of [Conqueror's Haki] now is simply to eliminate the World Government agents accompanying the warship.
Storm glanced at the Big Trophy that was rapidly popping up from the void.
He already knew this from Kizaru.
Apart from Headquarters Admiral Kizaru, no other naval personnel were involved in this secret operation by the World Government.
Apart from Saint Gringu and Kizaru, everyone else on this ship was CP Agent from the World Government.
Storm quickly skimmed through the [Big Trophy].
The highest quality of these [Big Trophy] is only four stars; most are three-star Silver Trophy and two-star Bronze Trophy.
Storm had long since lost interest in Big Trophy of this caliber.
He glanced at it briefly, didn't recognize any familiar names, and handed the warship over to Golden Lion II.
With a gentle touch, the Golden Lion II sent the warship soaring into the sky.
A small island floats silently in the sky.
This is not the Sky Garden.
Instead, it was a deserted island that Storm randomly found along the way.
On this deserted island, all members of the Dawn Pirates gathered.
From the "Red Dragon Emperor" to "Ichi," they all reside on this ordinary little island.
Golden Lion II gently placed the World Government's warships onto the island's land.
The members of the Dawn Pirates immediately swarmed forward, enthusiastically looting the treasures inside the warship.
Seeing this, Storm did not stop him, but instead "liberated" the real Whitebeard the Second.
He reverted to his original appearance and casually tossed the group of World Government agents he had just captured into the "Void Great Prison".
These World Government agents will never have the chance to "get out of prison" in their lifetime.
Storm allowed the members of the Dawn Pirates to loot the treasure.
He also began to organize the "treasures" he had collected on this trip.
Figarland Saint Gringu, who had just been brought to the sky by the Golden Lion II, had his physical condition briefly examined by Storm.
"Tsk! What a fragile body!"
Storm looked at Saint Gringu was missing his right arm, had multiple fractures all over his body, and was bleeding profusely, and shook his head with a hint of disdain.
Why does the Figarland Family keep producing such 'fragile' individuals?
"Shanks is, this 'moon face' is also quite fragile defensively."
If it had been Big Mom or Beasts Kaido Storm, they certainly wouldn't have been crippled by Whitebeard the Second.'s hand chop.
All of this is because Figarland Saint Gringu is too weak!
Storm raised his right hand and unleashed the [Restoration Fruit] ability, giving Saint Gringu a life-saving treatment.
This top-tier Celestial Dragons cannot be left unattended.
Regardless of whether Saint Gringu is a "Celestial Dragons" or, more accurately, the Supreme Commander of the Knights of God.
Or perhaps it's due to the immense power of Saint Gringu himself.
Storm wouldn't stand idly by and watch this "moon face" die.
Saint Gringu is determined to become a "lifetime VIP customer" of the Void Great Prison!
Under the healing power of the [Restoration Fruit], Saint Gringu's physical condition quickly improved, and his breathing also stabilized rapidly.
However, under Storm's deliberate control, Saint Gringu's severed right arm did not regenerate, but rather maintained a roughly symmetrical appearance with Shanks.
Cough cough!
"Hmm... I overlooked one issue before."
Storm looked at Saint Gringu, who was almost completely restored except for his right arm, and frowned in thought for a moment.
"It is known that the [Restoration Fruit] is a top-tier restoration-type Devil Fruit."
"It is also known that Vegapunk's [artificial Azure Dragon Fruit] experiment requires a large amount of Beasts Kaido's Lineage Factor."
"If I have Vegapunk extract Beasts Kaido's Lineage Factor while simultaneously using the [Restoration Fruit] to restore Beasts Kaido's body... does that mean I could possess countless [Artificial Azure Dragon Fruit] in the future?"
"Beasts Kaido" is a very rare and valuable resource.
The kind that is almost non-renewable.
However, it seems the [Restoration Fruit] can break this situation...
"I'll have to find a chance to try it out later!"
After treating Saint Gringu's injuries, Storm casually put a layer of "Clay Shackles" on him and then threw him into the Void Great Prison to imprison him.
Immediately afterwards.
Storm summoned the two newly acquired Eight-Star [Moonlight Trophy].
His [Physique] and [Haki] attributes have both reached Nine-Star.
Even the [Moonlight Trophy] can no longer provide any improvement.
Therefore, the [Moonlight Trophy] that Storm has obtained at this point can only be used in one way—
Devil Fruit!
"Either add points to the [Devil Fruit], or add points to the [Demon Ring]..."
Two directions flashed through Storm's mind, and in the next instant, he chose one without hesitation.
"It's definitely to add points to the Devil Fruit!"
Storm already possesses a genuine, Nine-Star [Demon Ring].
However, he has not yet mastered the abilities of a Nine-Star Devil Fruit.
Compared to obtaining another Nine-Star [Demon Ring].
Storm would much rather obtain a Nine-Star Devil Fruit ability!
He silently summoned his Devil Fruit ability panel.
Through unremitting efforts.
Storm currently possesses four Devil Fruit abilities at the Eight-Star.
[Clay Fruit].
[More-More Fruit].
[Soul-Soul Fruit].
And that [Artificial Red Dragon Fruit].
Storm's gaze swept over the four Devil Fruit one by one, finally settling on one of them.
"I still want to improve the [Clay Fruit]'s abilities the most!"
Without a doubt.
Storm is most familiar with Devil Fruit [Clay Fruit].
Once he chooses to upgrade the [Clay Fruit] ability level to Nine-Star.
This doesn't just mean that Storm possesses a Nine-Star [Devil Fruit] ability.
This also means that his Dawn Pirates will experience a leap forward in their "version update"!
Nine-Star [Clay Fruit] can naturally create Nine-Star "Clay Doll"!
Even without mastering the power of [Haki], a Nine-Star Clay Doll can still overpower an Eight-Star target!
This.
It's the beauty of "numbers"!
Storm took a deep breath and, without further hesitation, threw the two [Moonlight Trophy] into the [Clay Fruit].
After eight stars, add one more star.
[Clay Fruit: ★★★★★★★★★] (Nine-Star)
This is the second update from yesterday.
Um...
Good morning, everyone.
Time to sleep.
