Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 328 The Final Island

Barrett looked at Lu Chen and said, "You are indeed stronger now, but one day I will stand at a higher position than you. So for that day, please let me join your pirate group."

As a challenger, he knew who was stronger, and Barrett respected the strong. Although he had spoken very confidently about his application to join the group.

Lu Chen admired this person who pursued strength just like himself. It was like looking at another version of himself.

So Lu Chen agreed: "Yes, you can join me."

Barrett got up from the ground and said seriously, "When I become stronger, I will challenge you again."

"Of course no problem, come challenge me again when you've made some progress."

The devil's offspring Barrett naturally joined Lu Chen's pirate group.

Beehive Island is a very good place for pirates who are pursuing power, and the leader here also desires to be powerful.

Time passed quickly, and Vegapunk's experiment slowly made some progress.

There has been enough research done on Blackbeard's alien-like body.

Vegapunk somewhat understood how Blackbeard acquired the abilities of multiple fruits.

So he found Lu Chen and said:
"I already know what's so special about the person you're looking for?"

Lu Chen made his first guess: "Does Tiqi have multiple hearts?"

Vegapunk casually responded, "Well, there's a legend that says the devil lives in the heart."

Then he changed the subject: "In fact, this is not the case. Simply increasing the heart cannot give a person the ability to eat multiple devil fruits."

Lu Chen was curious about this: "So what's so special about Tiqi?"

At this point, Vegapunk's interest suddenly ignited. "Perhaps you didn't know this, but this experiment doesn't even need sleep. His soul is made up of several different pieces, like stitches. What an exciting experiment."

Then Vegapunk continued to chatter and add: "Devil Fruit comes from human fantasy. It is a power that acts directly on the soul."

Lu Chen could only feel a little disappointed after hearing this explanation: "Are you saying that I can't get a second devil fruit?"

This is the issue that Lu Chen cares about most. As for what is special about Blackbeard Teach, Lu Chen doesn't care at all.

Vegapunk gave Lu Chen a hope. He looked at Lu Chen meaningfully and said:
"No, you are also special. You didn't eat two devil fruits at the same time with your own body. The mental power you call a stand is only a part of your soul. Although the connection between you is close, there are actually some barriers."

Seeing Lu Chen lost in thought, Vegapunk paused for a moment before stating the most important part of his hypothesis:

"And the most important thing is that you ate the Soul-Soul Fruit before. You need to use the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit to control your own soul. Then you will have the possibility to eat a second devil fruit."

Lu Chen also understood what Vegapunk meant: "So what I need to do now is to train my devil fruit ability?"

Vegapunk said affirmatively: "Yes, Devil Fruits have different levels of awakening. When you reach that level, you will definitely be able to use the Soul-Soul Fruit to control the part of your soul that has spiritual power."

Lu Chen expressed his gratitude to Vegapunk: "I know what to do. Thank you very much, Doctor."

Vegapunk said expectantly, "I'm looking forward to seeing you gain a second ability. This will create countless possibilities for the future."

No matter how harsh the first condition is, as long as there is only one successful example, there will be unlimited possibilities in the future.

In the next few years, Lu Chen continued to hone his fruit abilities, and he continued to improve the level of his fruit development on pirates who wanted to stand out.

The World Government seemed to have completely surrendered the New World to the pirates, not sending a single warship there. Then, a piece of news that shocked everyone spread across the world.

The Roger Pirates successfully found the final island, Raftel.

There Roger learned all the truth about the world.

It is rumored that everything in the world is there, and in order to highlight this honor, the pirates named Roger the Pirate King.

After completing his journey around the world, Roger arrived at Honeycomb Island with his ship.

Roger and Lu Chen haven't seen each other for many years. The last time they met was many years ago after the Battle of God Valley when Lu Chen and Whitebeard took his ship to Rogue Town.

Roger couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Lu Chen's face which had hardly changed at all.

"You look exactly the same as when we met in the Valley of the Gods."

Lu Chen teased, "You seem to have changed a lot. You've become the Pirate King. You can tell from your aura that you've changed a lot."

After hearing this, Roger burst into laughter: "Hahaha, it's been a few years, it's normal for me to change."

"Has the little ghost I picked up back then grown up this big?"

Lu Chen looked at the red-haired boy arguing with a red-nosed guy, while Rayleigh was holding their heads and saying something helplessly.

Lu Chen was there when Shanks was picked up, and Rayleigh hesitated for a long time before deciding to raise him.

Roger replied nonchalantly, "This little brat will grow up in no time."

"He should be the child of the Celestial Dragon leader, the one with hair the same color as the moon."

They had all seen the leader of the Knights of God.

Roger couldn't help but burst out laughing. He had no discrimination against people based on their background.

"Hahaha, I know. How could an ordinary person's child be placed in the treasure of the Celestial Dragons? But the sea welcomes everyone. A child raised by pirates is a pirate."

"Where's the other one?"

Bucky with a red nose is also very eye-catching.

"He's also a little devil who got lost at sea. Since I already have a little devil on my ship, adding another one won't be a problem."

Then Roger continued with a gloating tone, "Anyway, it's Rayleigh who's worried."

After chatting for a while, Lu Chen asked Roger why he came:

"What's the matter that brought you to Raftelu specifically to find me?"

Roger glanced around and said, "I have something I want to talk to you about in private."

"Of course, please come with me."

Lu Chen invited Roger into a quieter room where there would be no agents monitoring the room.
