The time had come to Marineford Calendar 1500.
After over a year of grueling training, Allen had already mastered Observation Haki.
His Body Technique and physique had also received a significant improvement, as if he had cheats enabled.
Through constant physical training, Allen had grown to 1.3 meters tall. Not only that, he had developed an almost perfect mermaid line.
If any girls saw it, they would be unable to resist reaching out to touch it and saying—
"Younger brother, you're so hard!"
Just as Allen was focused on training.
Suddenly, the System Electronic Sound rang out in his mind.
(Ding, mission issued: Repel the Buster Call, save Ohara. Reward: Basic Control of "Time Law.")
The voice pulled Allen out of his training.
Allen was not surprised by the system's appearance. Instead, he was secretly pleased. Another benefit had arrived.
"System, what abilities does Time Law have?"
(Ding, after mastering Time Law, the host can accelerate and decelerate their own attacks within range, and can also use it on enemies. With comprehension, various abilities can be developed. Time Law is the Host's own ability, does not belong to a Devil Fruit, and is not restricted by Seastone or seawater.)
Upon hearing that, Allen was overjoyed.
"This Time Law isn't any worse than Space-Time Law. If developed to Time Stop, enemies within range would be frozen in place and unable to move. Wouldn't that mean I could do whatever I wanted?"
However, powerful Haki could break through its own negative effects.
Allen couldn't help but recall what Father had said.
"Haki is the only truth."
"It seems that from now on, I not only need to develop my abilities, but also train my Haki to the extreme."
"System, open my Personal Panel."
The panel displayed:
Attribute Panel Current Host Attribute Points: 38465 Host: Gol D. Allen Physique: 445/8000 Fourth Order (Tenth Order is Top Tier) Body Technique: 666/5000 Third Order (Tenth Order is Top Tier) Swordsmanship: 111/15000 Fifth Order (Tenth Order is Top Tier) Conqueror's Haki: Second Order (Fifth Level is Top Tier) Armament Haki: None Observation Haki: Second Order (Fifth Level is Top Tier) Devil Fruit Ability: None Skills: "Divine Avoidance" Perfect Version, "Fleeting Glance" Proficient, "Cloud Breaker" Proficient. God-Tier Skill: "Space-Time Law" has developed abilities such as Teleport and Space Transfer. Self-created Skill: "Formless Sword Intent" incomplete. Weapon: Heavenly Demise Divine Sword (Special Skill To be unlocked) Remarks: Attribute Points can be obtained by defeating or killing others. Repeatedly defeating the same opponent halves the Attribute Points gained.
Allen looked at his Attribute Panel, calculated in his mind, and couldn't help but complain.
"With my current strength, trying to resist a Buster Call alone is basically no different from courting death. That's a force capable of destroying a country."
"Shit is hard to eat, and rewards are hard to earn. I need to find a few suckers to come with me."
Allen stroked his chin as he pondered.
"Uncle should be willing to go with me, but one expert won't be enough. Who else should I find?"
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him.
"I'm so foolish. There's also Left hand Gaban!"
Just as he was talking to himself, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"What happened to Gaban?"
Allen turned back and said annoyedly.
"Our Pluton Da finally decided to come back and see me."
"What Da? I am your uncle!"
But what was exchanged was Allen's look of disdain.
"Heh heh, then you say, where did you go this month?"
That was right. Shakky urged Rayleigh to return to her every few days. After Rayleigh taught Allen his training insights, he rushed back to the Sabaody Archipelago. As for what he went back for, everyone who understood, understood.
But Rayleigh still stubbornly refused to tell the truth.
"I only went to protect Shakuyaku because I was afraid she'd be in danger!"
Hearing those shameless words, Allen couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Rayleigh knew he could not hide it from Allen, so he could only guiltily change the subject.
"By the way, what did you mean when you mentioned Gaban just now?"
"It's nothing major. Seeing that you two are idle, I wanted you to accompany me to Ohara and stop the Buster Call."
Rayleigh was shocked when he heard that.
"How did you know the Marines were going to launch a Buster Call on Ohara?"
"I guessed. So, will you accompany me?"
Rayleigh could only compromise helplessly.
"Fine!"
"I'll go with you. Calling Gaban is the right move. Otherwise, the two of us alone wouldn't be able to stop the Buster Call."
"Then call him. I don't have his number."
Rayleigh did not waste any words. He took out a Den Den Mushi, pressed several numbers, and made the call.
The Den Den Mushi made a "pururururu" sound. The other side quickly answered, and Gaban's relaxed voice came through the receiver.
"Hello, Rayleigh. What do you need?"
"It's—"
Just as Rayleigh was about to speak, Allen snatched the Den Den Mushi away.
"Uncle Gaban, it's me. I'm Allen."
Upon hearing that it was Allen, Gaban answered with a smile.
"Oh, it's Allen. What do you need?"
"It's nothing major. I just miss you a little. Can you come to Ohara?"
"You're in Ohara?"
Gaban's puzzled voice came through the phone.
"No, but we're preparing to go there."
"Uncle Gaban, are you coming?"
Gaban thought about it. Since he had not seen Allen and Rayleigh for quite some time, he agreed.
After that, the two chatted for a few more sentences.
Once they were done, Gaban hung up. Rayleigh did not even have time to get a word in.
"Done!"
Allen was a little happy now. He had gained another helper.
Rayleigh frowned in confusion. "Why didn't you tell him that we're going to deal with the Marines?"
"Why say it? Haven't you fought the Marines before?"
Rayleigh thought about it and felt that made sense.
"Then let's explain it clearly once we get there. Are we leaving now?"
"Not yet. We're still one person short. I'll contact him first."
Rayleigh was somewhat curious. "Who else are we missing?"
Allen said mysteriously:
"A future terrorist!"
Rayleigh was full of doubts, not knowing who Allen intended to find.
At that moment, Allen had already started dialing the other party's Den Den Mushi number.
The Den Den Mushi rang with another "purururu." Soon, a deep voice came from the receiver.
"Hello, who is this?"
"It's me, your good friend Allen."
When the other party heard that it was Allen, his tone became gentler.
"So it's you."
"Have you thought of something you want me to help you with?"
"No, no, no."
"I'm not asking you to help me. There's something I want to see whether you're interested in making a move on."
Dragon was curious about what this kid wanted to say.
"Then tell me what it is first."
"You know Dr. Clover from Ohara, right?"
"He's my friend. Is this related to him?"
"It's nothing major. The World Government plans to use a Buster Call against your friend. Do you want to make a move and save him?"
Upon hearing this news, Dragon's tone became guarded as well.
"How did you know the government would use a Buster Call to destroy Ohara?"
"My good friend, don't worry about how I know. Saving them will benefit you too."
Dragon became interested and wanted to hear what benefit this kid was talking about. Still, he had already planned to save Dr. Clover, since Dr. Clover was his friend.
"Then you say, how will it help me?"
"Ohara can decipher ancient writing. They are exploring the Void Century. The World Government does not want the world to know about that history, which is why it will dispatch a Buster Call. If you want to resist the World Government's rule, then the Void Century will be of help to you."
After hearing this, Dragon's steady voice came from the receiver.
"I understand. I'll hurry to Ohara as soon as possible. See you then."
With that, he hung up.
