New Skills
Garp: ".
Fleet Admiral Sengoku:".
Garp froze in his chewing motion with the rice cracker, staring at Ivan in disbelief.
He conveyed a message to Ivan with his eyes. "You little rascal, you tricked me!"
Ivan gave him a look. "Who told Vice Admiral Garp to trick me first!"
"You brat!"
"You old geezer!"
The two men locked eyes, and if it weren't for the sheer number of them, Garp would have had to unleash his Conqueror's Haki.
Of course, even so, Ivan wouldn't be afraid; who doesn't have Conqueror's Haki?
Sengoku noticed the standoff between the two and punched his old friend in exasperation.
You're almost at the end of your life, why are you arguing with a child?
Now everyone agreed on Ivan's plan, and the meeting was drawing to a close.
As Fleet Admiral, Sengoku concluded the meeting by saying, "In that case, Aokiji is appointed as the commander-in-chief of the decoy plan, and Vice Admiral Vice Admiral Ivan the deputy commander. You have the authority to mobilize the Devil Fruit treasured within the Navy and find suitable locations to place the decoys."
I have only one requirement: this operation must yield some results. Even if we can't capture a single member of the Shadow Garden, we must at least gather more information about them!
"Yes, sir!"
After the meeting ended and Ivan returned to his temporary lodgings, he was extremely satisfied with the outcome.
This time, he discussed with Admiral Aokiji that they would directly use three Devil Fruits to attract the attention of the Shadow Garden.
Afterwards, a preliminary decision was made regarding the location of the trap, which was decided to be at the G-2 Branch base near Alabasta.
There was no doubt that the trap would fail, but Ivan didn't intend for the navy to come away empty-handed; otherwise, he, the vice commander who had proposed the entire plan, would be severely punished.
--
Therefore, Ivan needs to seriously consider what benefits he should offer the Navy so that they will not only not punish him after a mission failure, but will instead reward him.
After a moment, Ivan had a preliminary conclusion in his mind.
Thinking about what might happen in the future, Ivan couldn't help but shake his head, feeling that he was too wicked!
After a moment's thought, Ivan put those questions aside for the time being, opened the system panel, and checked his current information.
The public execution of the Celestial Dragons brought him immense fame, and new abilities were unlocked in all his character panels.
[As a powerful being, you punish evil and slay demons; [Satoru Gojo]'s approval rating +8%]
[Template: Satoru Gojo (Approval Rate: 100%)]
[Congratulations! You have acquired the skill: Hollow Technique "This"!]
[Hollow Technique "This": Consumes a massive amount of stamina, combining the Cursed Technique Lapse "Azure" with the Cursed Technique Reversal "Radiant," generating an energy sphere powerful enough to tear through space.]
After Satoru Gojo Satoru's approval rating reached 100%, Ivan noticed a transformation in the panel.
First, the system rewarded him with a new skill: the "Hollow Technique. This skill is undoubtedly Satoru Gojo's strongest skill, possessing the ultimate spatial destruction ability.
Faced with this kind of skill, even a monster like Kaido would probably have his defenses easily breached.
In addition, with 100% approval, Ivan discovered that Satoru Gojo's Echo had completely merged with him.
These skills have become his own power, and even if the system disappears, he can still use them.
In addition to the Satoru Gojo Template, the Yamato Template also improved by 17%, Ivan gained the skill: Water Release.
Water Release didn't play a very strong role in the Hokage world; its offensive power was too weak compared to those world-destroying Ninjutsu.
However, in the world of One Piece, it's completely different; Water Release is definitely the nemesis of Devil Fruit User.
With the aid of Water Breathing, Ivan could be called the killer of the sea's ability users!
Minato Namikaze's approval rating increased by 29%, Ivan acquired the Rasengan Technique. This Ninjutsu didn't significantly improve his strength, but it was better than nothing.
Ichigo Kurosaki's approval rating increased by 18%, Ivan gained the skill: Black Flowing Fang Thrust.
This skill combines Getsuga Tenshō and Shunpo, and is somewhat similar to Yasuo's Sweeping Blade. Apart from looking cool and clearing minions, it's useless.
Ivan skipped over it.
The lesbian girl, Kuroko Shirai, gave Ivan a pleasant surprise.
[Because you punished evil and liberated people's minds, [Kuroko Shirai]'s approval rating increased by 61%]
[Template: Kuroko Shirai (Approval Rating: 62%)]
[Congratulations! You have acquired the skill: High-Speed Calculation!]
[High-Speed Calculation: Consumes a large amount of stamina; performs High-Speed Calculation for a short period!]
High-Speed Calculation is the core ability of the espers in Academy City, and the foundation upon which they unleash their superpowers.
This ability brought Ivan a greater boost than he had imagined.
First, he can use High-Speed Calculation to enhance his learning ability by dozens of times.
Secondly, he has Black Flash!
With the High-Speed Calculation, he could directly activate High-Speed Calculation. With such powerful computing power, triggering Black Flash would no longer be difficult for him.
If he has enough stamina, he could even use the Conqueror's Coating and Black Flash together under the influence of supersonic thinking.
Compared to that one strike, he was even capable of challenging Whitebeard, the World's Strongest Man!
With that said, Ivan's long-held idea could finally be put into practice.
He plans to soon represent Shadow Garden in greeting the Four Emperors.
After Kuroko Shirai, Ivan's favorite Homelander Template came to be.
He also gave Ivan a huge surprise!
[Because you punished evil, you gained the attention of most people in the world, [Homelander] approval rating +30%]
[Template: Homelander (Approval Rating: 66%)]
[Congratulations! You have acquired the skill: Agelessness!]
[Agelessness: Aging is extremely slow, almost like immortality!]
It doesn't significantly boost combat power, but it's Ivan's favorite skill.
The skill effect is simple: near-immortality!
This means that Ivan will hardly age and will be able to maintain his peak fighting ability for a long time.
More importantly, he has more time to explore the system and obtain more powerful templates.
Perhaps, in the future, he will be able to obtain a time travel template and return to the time when he left Earth.
Perhaps, he will be able to travel to other worlds in the future, such as Naruto and Jujutsu Kaisen.
In an instant, Ivan's future was filled with Limitless possibilities!
After getting used to his current physical condition and new skills, Ivan left behind a Wood Clone, instructing the Wood Clone and Aokiji to prepare the bait plan.
He then used the Flying Thunder God to travel to a remote island in the Sabaody Archipelago, intending to head to the New World to discuss some matters with Whitebeard.
Incidentally, he wanted to test just how powerful his strongest attack could be!
After the Celestial Dragons died, the Sabaody Archipelago was blockaded by the Navy for a period of time, and was finally unblocked a few days later.
Unlike before, however, there are no longer any figures wearing animal masks on the Sabaody Archipelago.
The Shadow Garden is already a thorn in the side of the World Government. Any civilian who dares to wear an animal mask will be captured by the Navy and enslaved.
However, at this moment, a man wearing a blue Azure Dragon mask walked out of the alley.
At that moment, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the street!
