In the room of the Windrider, Luo Wen sat cross-legged on the bed, his mind immersed in the system panel.
[Host: Luo Wen]

[Playing progress: 100%]

"Open a new template."
Luo Wen's mind raced.
[Congratulations, host! SSR template: Lancer Karna!]
As the system finished speaking, a radiant figure appeared in Luo Wen's mind.
He wore golden armor, held Divine Spear, and looked at the taciturn, aloof warrior.
"Little Sun, Karna!?"
Gazing at the figure in his mind that shone as brightly as the sun, Luo Wen was overjoyed.
Regardless of which Fate series they appear in, they are undoubtedly top-tier combatants.
Berserker's template is certainly good, but it's still a level below this. After all, he's a Berserker-class Berserker, having lost too many Noble Phantasms and skills. If he were an Archer-class Berserker, he would definitely be an SSR-level character like Karna.
Karna was a great hero of ancient India, the son of the sun god Surya.
After transforming into Heroic Spirit, he became a top-tier Heroic Spirit of the same caliber as Gilgamesh.
All of its stats are outstanding, and its Noble Phantasm is even at the EX level.
His armor, 'Sun Wheel Armor', was a gift from his father, the sun god Surya. It was fused with his body and could withstand any attack below level A.
Furthermore, the Divine Spear in his hand, 'Sun Wheel Obeys Death,' is incredibly powerful, unleashing a force that annihilates everything at the cost of life itself.
"The system has consumed all its Beli to advance the role-playing progress!"
Luo Wen's eyes gleamed with excitement, unable to contain his joy.
With all 3.6 billion Beli consumed, Karna's template value suddenly reached 36%.
In an instant, a powerful force surged into his body, along with a vast amount of memories.
Half a day later, Luo Wen slowly regained consciousness after completing the inheritance, and the system panel had undergone tremendous changes.
[Host: Luo Wen]
[Template: Berserker Heracles 100%, Lancer Karna 36%]
[Beli: 60 million]
[Strength: A+↑]
[Durability: A↑]
[Agility: A↑]
[Magic Power: A↑]
[Lucky: A]
[Noble Phantasm: EX]
[Inherent Skills]: Magic Resistance (C), Riding (A), The Discerning Eye of the Poor (A), Uncrowned Martial Arts (--), Battle Continuation (B), Magic Release: Flame (A)...
[Other Skills]: Swordsmanship A, Armament Haki A, Observation Haki A, Conqueror's Haki A
[Noble Phantasm]: Twelve Labors (B), Nine Lives (C-A+), O Sun, Transform into Armor (A), O Brahma, Cover the Earth (A), O Brahma, Curse My Body (A+), O Sun, Submit to Death (EX)
The 3.6 billion Beli I painstakingly accumulated have all been spent.
One hundred million Beli can be exchanged for 1% of the character's progress, while Berserker's template only requires 10 million Beli to exchange for 1% of the progress, a difference of 10 times.
Looking at the dramatic changes on the panel, Luo Wen felt it was all worthwhile.
The increase in attributes isn't significant, considering his attributes are already at the pinnacle among Heroic Spirit. It won't undergo a qualitative change until he receives an EX-level attribute boost.
What surprised him was the addition of many Noble Phantasms and unique skills.
Needless to say, his Noble Phantasms are powerful offensive weapons; the sun wheel transforming into armor grants him an A-rank of extra defense, while the others are all high-powered offensive Noble Phantasms.
Aside from Magic Resistance (only Luo Wen has magic), everything else is excellent.
The Discerning Eye of the Poor (A) allows him to see through people's hearts and thus avoid being deceived.
The Uncrowned Martial Arts" (--) technique allows one to appear weak in martial arts, a kind of "playing dumb to fool the enemy" skill. Although in this world, Luo Wen doesn't really need it.
Magic Release: Flame (A) allows Luo Wen to unleash fire-attribute magic.
Aside from not being able to transform into an element, he can do everything the Flame-Flame Fruit allows. He can even achieve supersonic flight by shooting flames.
As for elementalization, Luo Wen didn't care for it either.
He possesses the Sun Wheel, which transforms into an A-rank Noble Phantasm called armor. Beneath this Noble Phantasm lies a body comparable to Kaido's, and he also has 12 lives that can be restored.
All I can say is that they won't die, they really won't die.
With multiple layers of protection, isn't it stronger than elementalization, which is countered by Armament Haki?
"That's why even dogs don't eat the Flame-Flame Fruit."
Golden flames erupted from Luo Wen's hand as he mercilessly mocked him.
Ace's fire-lighting trick is something anyone can do a couple of times later on. And things like the Great Flame Commandment and the Flame Emperor are just intimidating in terms of size and name; they're basically just for clearing out grunts.
Skipping over a few new skills, Luo Wen focused his attention on riding.
This was originally a Lancer class skill (B), but Karna already has a higher-level Riding skill (A), so it was overridden.
Riding (A): Except for mythical beasts and divine beasts, you can freely control all beasts and mounts.
Needless to say, vehicles include bicycles, carriages, airplanes, ships, and of course, the Pluton Battleship.
Beasts are his main focus. Apart from mythical beasts and divine beasts, he can control all kinds of beasts, which greatly increases his operability.
"Shouldn't there be any uncontrollable mythical beasts or divine beasts in this world?"
Luo Wen pondered the worldview of One Piece, muttering to himself.
Although the world of One Piece is rich in species, with all kinds of giant beasts and mutated animals appearing one after another, they are still just at the level of wild beasts.
Even giant Sea Kings over 5,000 meters deep in the ocean, and Zunesha carrying an entire island, cannot be considered divine beasts or mythical creatures.
In other words, he can use his riding skill to control almost any animal. Although he can only control one at a time, it is still a very powerful skill.
"Speaking of animals, can I ride those Zoan Devil Fruit users?"
Luo Wen's thoughts began to wander, and he thought of other things.
I wonder if Princess Shirahoshi from The Little Mermaid can be ridden?
Can Zoan users ride animals after fully transforming into animals?
Kaido, who transforms into Azure Dragon, considered a mythical beast, and can he be ridden?
For a moment, Luo Wen felt an unbearable itch, as if Cat Claws's claws were scratching at him.
"Didn't Tashigi and Vivi consume Mythical Zoan? We can give it a try."
Luo Wen's eyes lit up, filled with anticipation.
Tashigi ate the Cat-Cat Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Nekomata form, Vivi ate the Bird-Bird Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Garuda form.
Both of these are very powerful Mythical Zoan Fruit. If he can control Tashigi and Vivi's Mythical Zoan forms, then Kaido should also be able to control them.
The more Luo Wen thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't wait to put it to the test.
