After all, the traits he picked up would not bring the side effects of Devil Fruits.
A Logia user would definitely drop some good things for him. Even if it was an ability he did not want, he would not lose out if he broke it down.
"I've decided. I'll leave the Calm Belt first!"
Lin Ye rolled over and sat up, a flicker of anticipation flashing through his eyes. He grabbed the unsheathed Enma beside him and swung it toward the island's forest.
Boom!
A black Flying Slash shot out, sweeping across the small island in an instant.
Boom!
After a moment of silence, the severed trees and boulders all cracked apart and flew into the air.
Lin Ye was not sleepy at all. His level-nine Strong Physique allowed his stamina and energy to recover extremely quickly.
Enma, one of the Twenty-One Great Grade Blades, became a shipbuilding tool.
Lin Ye swung Enma in his hand, trimming the severed trees.
He did not know how to build a ship, but he only needed to do it according to his own ideas.
Even Hawkeye could sail the seas alone in a small boat, roaming back and forth between the New World and the Four Blues. There was no reason Lin Ye could not do the same.
This kept him busy for seven days.
Lin Ye pushed an enormous and extremely ugly wooden raft into the sea.
The logs laid side by side had not even been stripped of their bark and had been crudely wedged together.
Barefoot, Lin Ye leaped onto the raft and grabbed two enormous oars.
The oars had been carved from two massive logs, each more than ten meters long.
The raft beneath his feet was also more than ten meters long and wide.
Most of this wood was meant as backup.
If the raft showed signs of falling apart, he could dismantle some of it, make repairs, and continue sailing.
Lin Ye grabbed the two enormous oars and began rowing.
His sensitivity to force allowed him to quickly grasp the technique of rowing.
Armament Haki wrapped around the two enormous oars.
The more-than-ten-meter oars were entirely sheathed in flowing Armament Haki. Then Armament Haki spread beneath Lin Ye's feet.
He rowed while training.
This would certainly increase both his skill with Armament Haki and the amount he possessed.
Lin Ye swung both arms, spinning the two enormous oars. With a boom, the raft beneath his feet shot forward.
Behind the raft, enormous waves dozens of meters high surged into the air.
Lin Ye's arms moved like windmills, pouring all that immense force into the raft.
At this speed, it was no slower than ships sailing with the wind in the New World.
The only thing that annoyed Lin Ye was that once he left the waters around the island, the number of Sea Kings in the sea increased.
The smaller ones were over ten meters long, while the larger ones reached hundreds of meters.
His Observation Haki even sensed enormous Sea Kings more than a thousand meters long in the deep sea.
What did these things eat to grow so big?
Lin Ye was rather speechless as Conqueror's Haki suddenly erupted.
The Sea Kings lurking in the sea, drawn by the raft's commotion, immediately scattered after Lin Ye unleashed his Conqueror's Haki.
As time passed, they gathered beneath him again.
Lin Ye could only drive them away once more.
On the sea of the Calm Belt, Lin Ye rowed his oars and sped straight ahead in one direction.
However, compared to his speed, the Calm Belt was still rather vast.
Grand Line.
Kaido appeared once again.
He appeared on the Grand Line and attacked quite a few pirates and Marines, seemingly venting his anger.
The Marines had no way to track down Kaido.
Meanwhile, Lin Ye the Madman, who had previously fought Kaido, had completely vanished.
He should not have died.
The News Coos sent afterward brought back photographs from the chests of the dead News Coos.
In the photographs, Lin Ye was carrying a blade as he left alone.
Yet despite having just gained such great fame, there had been no news of him afterward.
No one had seen Lin Ye either.
Not only were the pirates and Marines confused, even Kaido was quite puzzled.
After attacking pirates and Marines to vent his anger, Kaido returned to Onigashima in Wano Country.
Onigashima was rather far from Wano Country, and the current Onigashima was not yet what it would become in the future.
In any case, after Kaido returned and saw that Onigashima was still as it had been, he knew Lin Ye had not come here to kill those people he had left behind.
"Mr. Kaido!"
Kaido reverted from Beastification and descended from the sky. Several children rushed over to him.
Every one of them looked thin and malnourished.
"Only you few are left?"
Kaido glared at the handful of children before him, his eyes widening.
"Mr. Kaido, you took everyone else out with you!"
A little girl nearly three meters tall despite wearing Wano Country clothes hurriedly said.
"Maria, Mr. Kaido didn't take everyone. Some people saw that Mr. Kaido wasn't coming back, so they ran away!"
A little girl in a fluffy dress said with her hands on her hips.
"Bastards!"
Kaido flew into a rage upon hearing that. He remembered there had been people left here on Onigashima.
However, almost everyone he had taken out earlier had indeed died. Even King had died.
"Lin Ye the Madman!"
Kaido gritted his teeth, his eyes full of viciousness.
"Mr. Kaido, did you meet an opponent? Then did you win?"
A child suddenly asked.
"Bastard, of course I won... Cough, cough. It was a draw. That guy wasn't weak."
Kaido had wanted to bluff, but then remembered that the news had basically spread already.
If people found out he was lying, would Beast Kaido have any face left?
"You brats, train hard from now on. In the future, you'll be officers of the Beast Pirates."
Kaido directly changed the subject, instantly shifting the children's attention.
"Woohoo!"
The children immediately began cheering, raising their hands with incomparably excited expressions.
Kaido turned to look in the direction of Wano Country.
He did not want to give up this place. After all, Wano Country was exceptionally well situated, and it was the only source of Seastone. He would never abandon his ambitions.
As for Lin Ye...
Thinking of Lin Ye's figure during their battle, Kaido's face darkened.
That brat really was a monster, a monster among monsters.
He possessed that kind of strength at such a young age.
Kaido even felt that among everyone he knew, even Charlotte Linlin, who had possessed the greatest talent and trained diligently from a young age, might not have been able to reach such strength.
Kaido had a feeling that he would definitely face Lin Ye again in the future.
By then, Lin Ye might be even stronger. Even if Kaido transformed into a dragon, he might not be able to escape.
It seemed he needed to work hard as well.
Kaido led the children back to their base. When he saw that the base was in complete disarray, as though it had been looted, Kaido grew even angrier.
He could not deal with Lin Ye right now, but could he not deal with these bastards?
"Bring me sake!"
Kaido suddenly bellowed.
"Uh, Mr. Kaido, all the sake was stolen."
Maria answered.
Kaido's body stiffened for a moment as he turned to look at the children.
"You stay here. I'll go find food for you."
Kaido turned and left again, his face growing darker and darker. By the time he walked out of the base, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
These bastards really did not know how to spell death. They actually dared betray him!
With a furious roar, Kaido transformed into a dragon and shot into the sky.
"Mr. Kaido seems very angry."
Maria said fearfully.
"It must be because he didn't get any sake." Ulti answered with a serious expression.
