Ordinary Group Owner: “How rare. Both the man and the dog think it’s no good.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “Or did Tony take on the taste buds of the Shiba Inu, Thor?”
Lighthouse Richest Man: “The stench is too strong. Eating it tastes like an untreated, rotting corpse.”
Lighthouse Richest Man: “But the effect is pretty strong. I can feel my physique has improved a lot. Plus, there’s this warm current flowing and working continuously inside my body.”
Lighthouse Richest Man: “This works way better than spiritual energy beads.”
Glory of the Northern Gods: “Confused Shiba.jpg”
Glory of the Northern Gods: “I only felt a tiny bit of warmth. Is it really that amazing?”
Lighthouse Richest Man: “What the heck are you barking about?!”
Lighthouse Richest Man: “Are you trying to show me up or something?”
Lighthouse Richest Man: “Do you even know what it means to say, ‘As a human, standing shoulder to shoulder with the gods’?”
Lighthouse Richest Man: “My anti-Shiba-Inu-Thor mech is almost done. Once the chat group opens up the travel function, just watch—I’ll come beat the heck out of you! I’ll catch you and use you as a circuit board!”
Child of Nature: “So, it’s true—neither the human nor the dog can stand the taste.”
Child of Nature: “Guess I’ll just disable this ability. The effect is just average anyway. It’s better to turn it into a proper dish.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “Disable it? The way you say that makes it sound like you have a ton of abilities.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “Aren’t you just using elements and stuff? Like controlling trees, talking to animals and plants, that kind of thing?”
Child of Nature: “Are you sure you’re describing me? That sounds more like a druid…”
Child of Nature: “My ability is basically controlling everything that falls under the domain of nature.”
Child of Nature: “For example, oxygen, elements, chemical elements, technology, things like that.”
Child of Nature: “As for alchemy… since it’s an ability awakened by a human, I can use it too.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “???”
Lighthouse Richest Man: “???”
Lighthouse Richest Man: “Control over chemical elements?”
The Worst Evil Spirit: “And you can control technology too?”
Boil Daigo into Soup: “What about nuclear bombs? Can you handcraft those as well?”
Child of Nature: “Yes.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “Is that the main point here? No, the main point is the second part.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “What do you mean, ‘since it’s an ability awakened by a human, I can use it too’?!”
Ordinary Group Owner: “Because humans are also part of nature, and you can control nature, so they fall under that scope too? And the abilities they awaken—you can use those as well?!”
Are you seriously sure this guy is human? How could a human possibly…?!
So not only nature itself, but every single ability anyone awakens—you can use them all?!
Child of Nature: “Yeah, that’s right.”
Bai Xuan wasn’t hiding his abilities. Honestly, he thought he’d already mentioned them in the chat group before.
Ordinary Group Owner: “If your world really is a novel like we guessed, then you’re basically the author’s own father!”
Ordinary Group Owner: “How can anyone have such ridiculous cheats?!”
Ordinary Group Owner: “This was supposed to be a golden age of spiritual energy recovery and global awakening. But no—you’re standing above everyone else, and all of them are just background props for you.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “You should change your name. Don’t call yourself Bai Xuan anymore. Just call yourself Bai Aotian.”
Even that guy from Re:Zero—the one called the author’s own father—isn’t as ridiculously overpowered as you!
I mean, sure, he has dozens of blessings and the ability to get any blessing he wants… okay, yeah, that’s pretty crazy too.
Fine. Both of you are the author’s daddies. I’m just the unloved daughter.
And on top of having such insane abilities, you even got into a chat group!
Ordinary Group Owner: “If we’re categorizing by novel styles, you’d be from a power-fantasy site, and I’d be from a fluff-and-cute site.”
Child of Nature: “…”
Child of Nature: “Shrug.jpg”
Child of Nature: “It’s not like I can do anything about it.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “Dang it!”
Ordinary Group Owner: “I really thought a Mythical Zoan Angel Fruit would let me catch up to you, my fellow time traveler. But looks like I was way too naive.”
Child of Nature: “Speaking of which, since you ate the Mythical Zoan Angel Fruit, how did it taste?”
Ordinary Group Owner: “Huh? The topic changed that fast? Let me complain a little more, at least.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “The taste? Imagine coating the surface of a bitter melon in honey, then boiling it in a Luosifen broth base, then adding stinky tofu and durian. It’s disgustingly awful.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “Ugh, dang it. I finally forgot about it, and now you just made me remember again.”
Ordinary Group Owner: “Bleh…”
As she spoke, Su Yunqing felt like she was tasting the Devil Fruit all over again. It made her sick just thinking about it.
Just one bite of that stuff is enough to sear it into your memory forever. But she’d heard some rumor that if you only take one bite, it might affect the fruit’s awakening. So she forced herself to finish every last bit of it.
After she was done, she actually admired herself for it.
The Worst Evil Spirit: “That sounds absolutely disgusting.”
Invincible East: “Yeah, the taste is really hard to describe.”
Dongfang Bai remembered eating the Glint-Glint Fruit. She’d tasted so many things in her life, but none of them could even come close to describing that flavor.
She wasn’t a picky eater by any means. She could eat the most bland, ordinary food without complaint.
But that Devil Fruit? She took one bite, hesitated for a long time, and barely managed to take a second.
She knew that one bite was enough to get the effect. But she’d seen Luffy in One Piece eat so much of his, so she didn’t stop after just one bite.
Luckily, the Glint-Glint Fruit’s power was worth the taste.
Now, in the martial arts world, even her master, Dugu Qiubai, she could defeat! Let alone anyone else.
While the group was discussing the taste of Devil Fruits, Whitebeard suddenly spoke up.
Be My Son: “The Dark-Dark Fruit… Satch found it.”
Uchiha Dance King: “Oh. So the story is about to begin.”
Uchiha Dance King: “Hiding for years, all for the sake of a possibility. Cold-blooded and ruthless, stopping at nothing to achieve his goals. I suppose you could call him a warlord.”
What Teach did, Whitebeard saw as a betrayal. But some others saw the makings of a great warlord in him.
Killing a crewmate to take the Dark-Dark Fruit. Defeating Ace and handing him over to the Navy, which triggered the Battle of Marineford. Then, at the very end, taking Whitebeard’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit ability.
And finally, replacing Whitebeard as one of the Four Emperors.
If Luffy didn’t exist, Teach really might have had a chance at becoming the Pirate King.
But even so, Uchiha Madara did not approve of Teach’s methods. If it were him, so what if he didn’t have the Dark-Dark Fruit? Couldn’t he reach the top of the pirate world with his own strength alone?
