Lin Yuan stood up in shock, staring at Kureha in disbelief, trying to see through her, even he couldn't help but feel a surge of greedy desire.
Kureha also looked at Lin Yuan, her face showing no fear whatsoever, as if she had absolute confidence, and even laughed.
"Hehehe, how about it, you dignified Hidden Emperor, dare to gamble your luck!"
"No!" X2.
Lin Yuan didn't speak, but Erza and Emile stood up anxiously and quickly refused, afraid that Lin Yuan would act impulsively.
But what you fear most is exactly what happens. Lin Yuan completely ignored the two women and stared intently at Kureha, a crazed smile spreading across his face.
After so many years of training, Lin Yuan discovered that although his strength had not reached its peak and could even be improved further, it was at most enough to defeat Whitebeard Newgate.
He was even willing to risk injury to use two powerful supernatural abilities in succession, confident that he could defeat two Four Emperors.
But that's far from enough, because the World Government, which has existed for 800 years, cannot be shaken by mere pirates unless all the forces on the entire sea are mobilized.
Although One Piece hadn't ended when Pirate King traveled to this world, Luffy path almost entirely followed this one, or Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika possessed some special ability.
Otherwise, Lin Yuan would never have believed that Luffy's protagonist aura alone could overthrow the World Government, especially since it would only happen if the other side's Calabash Brothers were sent to their deaths one by one to save their grandfather.
" Lin Yuan, you must calm down. Don't believe it. No one can withstand the energy of two Devil Fruit. You will die."
Lin Yuan waved his hand, Erza and Emile quiet.
In fact, he also had his own plans, and even a trump card. According to Kureha, perhaps bearing the Devil Fruit has nothing to do with the heart, but with the soul.
Lin Yuan's greatest trump card wasn't his strength, but rather that he was a transmigrator, specifically a soul transmigrator, whose soul power was terrifyingly strong.
Over the years, Lin Yuan hasn't focused too much on training his Observation Haki, but now, of the Three Types of Haki, his Observation Haki is the strongest, to the point that it can even Awakening on its own.
His abilities to predict the future, his Mantra, and his ability to hear all things are utterly weak compared to his Observation Haki.
Lin Yuan even felt that if he wanted to, he could Awakening these abilities; it would simply be a matter of focusing his cultivation on those abilities.
Besides these, there was another thing that had been bothering Lin Yuan: when he held Devil Fruit, he felt a strong urge to eat it.
Moreover, when this thought arose, his Observation Haki gave no warning, and even when he put the Devil Fruit to his mouth, there was no reaction.
How confident are you that you won't let me suffer the backlash from the Devil Fruit's power?
Kureha's face also showed a solemn expression. She thought carefully for a while before speaking.
"Whether or not you suffer a backlash is not something I can decide, but something you must decide. I need to test Your Hidden Emperor's soul power."
"Soul power!"
Lin Yuan nodded and said nothing more, while Kureha glanced at Chopper in Lin Yuan's arms and then walked into the room inside.
Three hours later, Kureha emerged, looking exhausted, carrying two items in her hands.
One was a medicine bottle containing a green liquid that was constantly foaming.
The other object was a black container, containing some unknown concoction that also emitted bubbles.
Kureha picked up the black container and handed it to Lin Yuan, speaking solemnly.
"Drink this and let me see how it goes. But if your soul power isn't strong enough, it will be very painful."
Erza and Emile were about to stop him when Lin Yuan took it without hesitation.
"Hmm, it doesn't taste very good."
To Lin Yuan's surprise, the black container was actually made of Seastone, but after drinking the liquid, he felt unusually clear-headed.
What surprised Lin Yuan even more was that he felt his Observation Haki had actually increased somewhat.
"What are you made of? Do you have any more? Give me some more!"
Kureha froze, staring at Lin Yuan in disbelief.
"Don't you feel any discomfort?"
Lin Yuan sensed it again, and apart from feeling refreshed, he experienced no other reactions.
"Mmm, it feels very comfortable. Is there a problem?"
Kureha was stunned, her face full of disbelief, and she even looked Lin Yuan over carefully for a while.
"With your soul power, why do you even need to come to me? You could just eat another Devil Fruit."
Lin Yuan was stunned. Although he had the urge to eat another Devil Fruit, he wouldn't risk his life without being sure he could succeed.
"You mean to say that my soul power can withstand a second Devil Fruit?"
"What a monster! His soul power is even stronger Rocks', and he's not inferior to Teach's!"
"I don't know why you're like this, but you should be able to eat a second Devil Fruit! However, you'd better not eat one of the same type; the backlash will be less."
Lin Yuan nodded, then took out the Clear-Clear Fruit and the silver Devil Fruit, which were the only ones he had left.
With his strength, if Lin Yuan were to develop the Clear-Clear Fruit to its fullest potential, he was confident that he could evade anyone's detection. In that case, he could definitely kill them with a single blow, even a Admiral expert.
However, compared to the Clear-Clear Fruit, another fruit aroused an even greater urge in Lin Yuan to devour it.
"Are you sure you can guarantee I won't suffer any backlash?"
Kureha glanced at Chopper, who was being held by Emile, hardened her heart, and then nodded.
"Don't worry, I can absolutely guarantee you'll be alright. Even if this old woman dies, you'll be fine!"
Lin Yuan smiled. Since Kureha was confident, he could also take a gamble.
In fact, he already had some guesses. If Teach was able to eat three Devil Fruits because of his sister, then he, who had transmigrated, should be able to as well.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan no longer hesitated. He exuded Haki, and Chopper, who was already terrified, was directly knocked unconscious by this aura.
With a determined heart, Lin Yuan no longer hesitated and directly picked up the silver Devil Fruit and bit into it.
Erza and Emile watched all this nervously. If Kureha dared to deceive Lin Yuan, they would definitely make her know the consequences and then go to be with Lin Yuan.
"Crack, crack..."
Lin Yuan ate the entire fruit in just a few bites, and felt a surge of energy coursing through his body, making him feel as if he were exploding.
He finally realized what kind of fruit it was— the Time-Time Fruit, whose energy was the power of time.
Seemingly sensing a threat, the power of Zhu Jiuyin within him seemed to be awakened by the power of time, and he immediately began to counterattack.
Ripples appeared on Lin Yuan's body. Although they could still see them while he was still in the room, Erza and Emile felt that Lin Yuan did not belong there.
Not only that, Lin Yuan's body also changed. Black and red dragon scales appeared on his body surface, dragon horns grew on his head, and a dragon tail was revealed.
"Whoosh..."
Lin Yuan suddenly stood up and then disappeared from the room.
Lin Yuan...
