One Piece: Nobody knows Devil Fruits better than me.

Chapter 308 Fantasy World
After learning the full picture of this world and the existence of the Star Lord from Lox.

Teach had already made up his mind.

The Dark Fruit is certainly a good fruit—according to Davy Jones and Joy Boy's plan, it is one of the keys to becoming the 'King of the World'.

But more than the Dark-Dark Fruit, he desired the Parasite Fruit.

The reason is just as he is showing now: he wants to use this fruit to usurp the power of the 'Star Lord'.

Loki was the first step in his plan—obtaining the 'Nidhogg Fruit' would grant him enough power to contend with or even defeat the twelve planets.

After defeating Wu Ma, he could naturally extract Wu Ma's soul, obtain his memories, learn the location of the twelve constellations and their lords, and ultimately complete his plan.

And now.
"The second step of the plan is complete, and the souls of the twelve constellations are now in my hands, hahaha!"

Teach laughed, waiting for Wu Ma's soul to be captured by the power of the Land of the Dead and taken into his hands.

But
"Ok?"

Just a moment later, he frowned.

Because at this moment, even though he had already activated his abilities to the fullest extent.

But he didn't realize that he had captured Wu Ma's soul.

"Impossible, it's clearly already..."

Doubt appeared in Teach's dragon eyes.

But just moments later, his enormous dragon head rose up incredulously.

Then, as expected, he saw it.

At the center of those countless giants' heroic spirits, in the place where Wu Ma, clearly torn to pieces, once stood.

A book is suspended in mid-air and its pages are constantly being turned.

That is the 'Book of Stars'.

And at this moment, from within that book.

An unprecedentedly brilliant starlight was clearly overflowing.

and also
"!!!"

Teach's menacing vertical pupils suddenly contracted.

Because he had already observed that as starlight spread, this world under his control, the 'Land of the Dead' opened by his abilities, was beginning to show clear changes.

The crimson soil began to be stained by starlight, and the surrounding desolate, apocalyptic landscape began to come alive.

In just a short while, the entire Kingdom of the Dead had changed its appearance.

It was as if the world had been split in two out of thin air—starting from the middle, the starlight and the blood-red light clearly divided the world.

In that world of twinkling stars, Teach could see magnificent things in the distance.

There are phantom images of islands suspended in the sky, like a dream.

There were buildings as black as ink, resembling an assassin's palace.

The Flower and Fruit Mountain is adorned with beautiful flowers, making it a truly magnificent place.

There are ancient and rustic pyramid-shaped buildings decorated with sun patterns.

There are a total of twelve similar locations.

But at this moment, they all stand only in the distance of that starlight world, like an illusory landscape.

"."

This caused Teach to show surprise and thoughtfulness in his expression.

But he didn't say much—because what was more important to him at the moment was clearly not the scene in this starry world.

Rather, they were the undead giants who had previously attacked Wu Ma.

Most of them were naturally in the 'Starlight' part of the world because of their attack on Wu Ma earlier.

Surrounded by starlight.

The figures of those giant spirits were now enveloped in flowing blood-red light. In their place, streaks of starlight continuously fell upon them.

The next moment.
"Ok?"

Jabba blinked, his eyes behind his sunglasses showing some surprise.

"It's out of control?"

He subconsciously raised his hands and clenched them together, seemingly in disbelief.

"It's just a temporary separation."

The next moment, he heard a voice in his ear.

Jabba turned his head and saw it right next to the 'Book of Stars'.

Wu Ma's figure, which should have been torn to pieces, has now reappeared.

He looked at Jabba and said calmly, “You are an ‘army’ that has been reshaped by his power within his kingdom.”

“But now you are not in the ‘Land of the Dead,’ but in the ‘Land of the Stars.’”

“Here, you can temporarily regain your true selves.”

As they spoke, the Book of Stars shimmered with light.

Yes.

As Wu Ma said.

The heroic armies of giants that exist here are essentially created from the awakened domain of the 'Nidhogg Fruit' and the bloodline factor source energy within the precious tree Adam that they devoured.

But interestingly...
【Human Fruit - Writer Form LV5 - Fantasy World】

[The fruit awakens, unleashing its ultimate imagination to construct a world within the book. However, this world can only exist within the book, allowing both living and non-living things to be stored within it, and the book's appearance to be altered at will.]

[Fusion Fruit Characteristics - Recorder]

The user can manipulate everything in the 'world of the book' and change the nature of things within it at will.

[Bloodline Factor Energy Enhancement - Paying a large amount of Bloodline Factor Energy can continuously manifest the world in the book in the real world. The more Bloodline Factor Energy paid, the longer the duration, and the more completely the world in the book is manifested.]

[After the world in the book manifests in reality, the effect of the 'script' written within it is greatly enhanced.]

This is the ability that Wu Ma is demonstrating at this moment—the awakening effect of the writer's fruit.

Its name is...
【Fantasy World: Astral Realm】

Using this ability, he manifested the world within the Book of Stars in this 'Land of the Dead'.

Within the area covered by starlight, everything was naturally under his control—including Jabba and many of the giants' heroic spirits, who could also break free from Teach's control.

The only problem is...
'I don't have many bloodline factor source energy resources at hand; at least I probably can't compare to Teach's.'

This was something Wu Ma knew—Teach had devoured most of the bloodline factor source energy within the 'Treasure Tree Adam'. Although his use of bloodline factor source energy was very primitive, in terms of sheer quantity, Roy really couldn't compare.

'Continued fighting is pointless.'

As he pondered this, Wu Ma looked at the enormous black dragon in the distance, and the remaining 'army' beneath it.

After a moment's thought, he suddenly turned to look at Jabba and the giants, who were still somewhat dazed: "Gentlemen—could you do me a small favor later? I will reward you handsomely."

He said that.

"what?"

Upon hearing Wu Ma's words, Jaba was taken aback.

Then he grinned.

"Compensation? I don't need that."

As he spoke, he had already raised his double axes.

"If it's about dealing with that guy, I can help for free!"
