Dimon Makes His Move, the First Fruit Secured / Black Box, Saint Saturn Defeated in an Instant
But now that we've encountered all of this, and with the navy's top combat power tied down by the officers, this is a rare and opportune moment...
Just as he was about to make his move, a voice came from above.
Summon me.
The Wave-Breaking Warrior, far away in the waters near Wano Country.
Inside the captain's cabin, Dimon kept a close eye on the situation at Marine Headquarters. When he saw that Five Elders had been mobilized, he had no choice but to consider taking action himself.
The Five Elders are actually not too bad, but if Imu were to descend using the bodies of the Five Elders, the situation would become much more troublesome.
He needs to steal the three Devil Fruit as quickly as possible.
Thinking of this, Dimon tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
"Zuizui, release Chaos."
Chapter 157 Dimon Makes His Move, First Fruit Received
A mouth appears on the desktop:
"Master, are you going to take action yourself? Let me go! Your loyal servant, Ship Zuizui, will surely bring back the Devil Fruit for you!"
Ship Zuizui volunteered for the battle; after fusing with Chaos, he already possessed considerable combat power.
Upon hearing this, Dimon smiled slightly:
"No need, just guard your hometown."
"Alright, Master, please be careful."
Ship Zuizui had no choice but to release the Paramecia Box-Box Fruit that it had fused with.
Wisps of black smoke emerged from his mouth, coalescing into an ordinary-looking treasure chest.
The next moment, the treasure chest suddenly opened, and a Joker jumped out.
"Surprise~"
The Joker shouted excitedly, "Long time no see, Master! Were you scared? Were you scared? Only an idiot would be scared!"
As she spoke, she glared angrily at the Ship Zuizui, "You wretched mouth of yours, you've been suppressing my consciousness all this time, I'm going to lock you in a box!"
"Stop fooling around, Chaos, you're taking refuge in me."
Seeing this, Dimon stopped the two little ones from arguing, ignoring the fact that they could keep fighting until tomorrow.
"Very well, master, your humble servant Chaos is the blade in your palm!"
Having said that, the frightening box transformed into a wisp of black smoke and entered Dimon's chest.
At this moment, Dimon once again becomes a Devil Fruit user, the Paramecia Box-Box Fruit, becoming Box Man.
He changed into the attire "Big Eye" often wore, a black robe and mask, and took out Shusui from the armory.
After he was ready, he had Ain relay his words to the real Big Eye.
Summon me.
It's the master!
The pupils of the Big Eye contracted slightly. Was the master about to intervene personally?
Was it because he was too slow that his owner became unhappy?
Big Eye, feeling uneasy, immediately obeyed the command and activated his summoning ability.
A beam of golden light shot out from his eyes, outlining a pentagram magic circle on the ground in front of him.
Upon seeing this, Vice Admiral Tsuru instantly realized what was happening, and his expression changed:
"Stop him! He's summoning more members!"
Almost as soon as she spoke, Momousagi made her move, wielding the Famous Sword Konpira, and slashed at the Big Eye head.
To be precise, that wasn't a head, but Big Eye the size of a head.
Big Eye offered no defense, allowing the attacks to rain down on him.
The sharp blade struck the junction between the eyeball and the body, but only produced sparks, failing to penetrate the defense.
"It's so hard!"
Momousagi gritted her teeth, channeling high-level Armament Haki through the sword.
Boom!
The heavy stone golem was sent flying by a single sword strike.
Momousagi felt no joy; her attack had neither harmed Big Eye nor stopped the magic circle from forming.
The golden magic circle emitted a dazzling golden light, and the instant it was completed, a faint figure appeared within the circle.
"Damn it... was I too late?"
Momousagi spun around and swung her sword, locking onto the neck of the person who had summoned her.
The moment Dimon appeared at Marine Headquarters, he was attacked.
The knife in his field of vision gradually magnified in his pupils, but he neither dodged nor avoided it, letting the attack come.
A bizarre scene unfolded.
Momousagi saw her knife slice across the other person's neck, but then mysteriously passed right through it.
Momousagi's eyes widened, and for a moment she didn't realize what had happened.
It all happened so fast that she even wondered if she was hallucinating.
Bethany, a member of the Seven Deadly Sins, possesses this ability to induce hallucinations. Unconvinced, Momousagi swung her sword back and attacked the mysterious figure who had suddenly appeared.
Dimon ignored her attack and turned to walk towards Vice Admiral Tsuru.
As he turned around, Momousagi's sword once again grazed his neck, just like before, the blade piercing through his body eerily.
"Be careful, he's a space-age ability user!"
Momousagi finally realized something was wrong; this wasn't a hallucination, and she shouted a warning.
Vice Admiral Tsuru was once a battle-hardened and outstanding naval officer. Although he has now retired to the second line, his insight remains sharp.
The abilities displayed by this mysterious person made her instantly realize that he was another spatial ability user.
Moreover, they have developed their abilities to an extremely high level.
Furthermore, this person's attire matches the description of "Big Eye" in the intelligence report...
What exactly happened?
Vice Admiral Tsuru didn't have time to think it through; she knew perfectly well that the other party's target was the Devil Fruit in her hand.
"Wash Shock!"
Crane hid the fruit behind her back with her left hand, while simultaneously pressing her right hand down towards the approaching Dimon.
The Wash-Wash Fruit's power requires physical contact to activate. When her palm touched the mask, the power failed to activate, and her hand passed right through the mask's head.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye; their bodies intertwined and vanished in an instant.
By the time Vice Admiral Tsuru came to her senses, the Devil Fruit in her hand had already been taken away.
She turned around with a serious expression, and then saw the mysterious masked man holding a fruit, standing quietly not far away, examining the object in his hand.
"Damn it, it's been stolen!" Momousagi gritted her teeth.
"Who exactly are you?" He took a deep breath. "Should I call you Big Eye, or...?"
She strongly suspected that this guy was also an official, but she didn't know which of the Seven Deadly Sins he was.
Based on the information we already have, and eliminating the impossible possibilities, the answer is actually quite obvious.
"Devil Fruit User?"
"No! You did have the Paramecia Storyboard Fruit before, but the abilities you're showing now are different, and the Storyboard Fruit's power is in that stone golem over there..."
At this point, He's tone was filled with disbelief:
"You can switch between Devil Fruit powers at will?"
There has never been a case in history where someone could change their Devil Fruit ability.
The experiment of a Devil Fruit user eating a second Devil Fruit was something the Marine Science Unit had already done long ago.
There are only two possible outcomes.
First, the user dies from an explosion, as the powers of the two fruits clash within their body, leading to their death and the regeneration of both fruits.
The second type...
The fruit eaten first is far more powerful than the second, suppressing it. The weaker second fruit will then regrow, effectively making it as if it was never eaten.
If the user can withstand this terrifying backlash, they will not actually die.
Kaido of the Four Emperors known as "Kaido of the Beasts," is a prime example.
In his early years, Kaido was not yet one of the Four Emperors, and his strength was not as great as it is now. He was captured by the Navy many times.
The Navy had initially considered killing the opponent, but ultimately chose to try feeding them a second fruit, and the result of this experiment was the second scenario.
"So, how did you do it?"
Vice Admiral Tsuru looked intently at Dimon.
Dimon examined the Devil Fruit in his hand. He didn't recognize what kind of fruit it was; there was no information about it in the encyclopedia he had seen before.
Faced with Vice Admiral Tsuru's question, Dimon slowly raised his head, his eyes beneath the mask calmly meeting the other's gaze as he said:
You can call me... Chaos.
He paused for a moment, then continued:
Tell me the locations of the other two fruits, and I might let you go.
Chapter 158 [Black Box], Instantly Killing Saint Saturn
Chaos...
Vice Admiral Tsuru, half-believing and half-doubting, said calmly:
"Why don't you take off your mask and let me see your face? If I'm in a good mood, I'll tell you the location of the other two fruits."
[Master, I haven't found the other two Devil Fruits either; they weren't in Aokiji's and Kizaru's dwellings.]
Ain's voice echoed in my mind.
Dimon was speechless... These two Marine Admiral were anything but honest. Akainu was much kinder and obediently carried the treasure chest with him.
"Storage Box."
With a thought, a small box appeared out of thin air in Dimon's palm. The box contained the Devil Fruit and then disappeared, being sent to the Box Garden Space.
He looked up at Vice Admiral Tsuru and Momousagi, guessing that Tsuru also didn't know where the other two fruits were.
Having no interest in getting entangled with these two, Dimon activated his Observation Haki to survey the surrounding area.
Just then, a figure attacked from behind.
"Full of openings!"
It was a tall man with long reddish-brown hair, wearing a perforated bull horn mask. He raised a long-handled saw with both hands and leaped to ambush Dimon from behind.
The broadsword cleaved down, seemingly intent on severing the person in two.
Momousagi's expression changed slightly.
"Get out of the way, Lieutenant Vice Admiral Bastille!"
The large cleaver was already touching Dimon's head, but he didn't take the supposed sneak attack seriously at all, letting the cleaver fall without dodging or avoiding it.
