One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

Abel's eyes gradually became brighter, making his already handsome face even more charming.

Even Baby-5, who had been secretly watching him from the side, couldn't help but blush slightly, imagining all sorts of bizarre scenarios.

Chapter 172 A Prayer Order from Orochimaru

Abel didn't react much after seeing his wanted poster.

The reward amount above should only be used as a reference.

In most cases, the higher the bounty of a pirate, the stronger he/she is.

But there are always a few exceptions.

Just like Doflamingo, who has been squatting in the North Sea, what does his current bounty of 130 million Berries amount to?

Clearly, Doflamingo's true strength is far more than what he has shown.

Furthermore, a person with a lower bounty is not necessarily unable to defeat an opponent with a higher bounty; ultimately, many factors influence the outcome of a battle.

It's possible that someone suffered a major misfortune simply because of the mutual restraint between Devil Fruit abilities, leaving them with no choice but to exclaim: "It's not a fault of the battle!"

That's right, I'm talking about you, Skypiea kid!

However, Abel himself didn't feel anything, which made Luo and the others extremely envious.

After all, in the pirate camp, the amount of the bounty on their wanted poster is generally regarded as a source of pride that they can show off.

You can always hear someone on the high seas boasting about how much bounty they have as a great pirate, and then you can calmly enjoy the envious glances and exclamations from those around you.

In addition, Abel discovered that after he gained some fame, he could always enjoy some special treatment when he went out on "business trips".

For example, after recognizing him, they immediately knelt down and surrendered, trembling with fear.

Or they might jump from one extreme to the other, eager to kill him and make a name for themselves.

For pirates, the fastest way to increase their bounty, besides punching a Celestial Dragon, is to climb up by stepping on those with higher bounties.

Of course, even if you defeat a Celestial Dragon, you still have to be able to escape.

Otherwise, he would probably die a very gruesome death.

This change undoubtedly provided Abel with considerable convenience in his work.

Regardless of which situation occurs, it will help him complete the tasks assigned by his family more quickly.

Moreover, if the latter situation occurs, he can collect more [Fallen Human Souls] for Baby-5, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

……

"Abel, can we not go back yet?"

After completing the task, Baby-5 suddenly said something somewhat awkwardly, while sticking her two index fingers together and tapping them back and forth.

Abel paused, somewhat confused. "What do you mean by not going back yet? Do you have other things to do?"

"It's nothing, it's just... it was on the way here..."

Under Abel's gaze, Baby-5's voice grew softer and softer for some reason, and her face became increasingly red.

If Abel hadn't had good hearing and hadn't learned Observation Haki, he really wouldn't have heard that sound, which was barely louder than a mosquito's buzz.

A few minutes later, Abel followed Baby-5 to the front of a theater.

"Stage plays? This is the first time I've known you like this kind of thing."

Abel was genuinely moved. He had never known that Baby-5 liked watching stage plays. And, come to think of it, this was probably the first time Baby-5 had ever made a request of him since they met.

How could I refuse!

"It's not that I like it, I just think it would be quite interesting..."

Baby-5 lowered her head shyly, glancing occasionally at a poster on the wall. The most prominent line on it was the name of the show: "My Childhood Friend is a Maid".

"Then let's stay another day. Which show do you want to see?"

Abel didn't think much of it. As a leader, as long as he didn't betray his family, the constraints were actually quite small.

It's like that guy Pique, who kept making excuses to stay outside because of a woman.

If it weren't for his cadre status, he would have been finished long ago!

Not to mention that after telling Doflamingo, he even approved the leave.

If you're not a cadre, do you think that's even possible?

"Let's... let's see which one."

Baby-5, with its head down, pointed precisely at the poster on the wall.

"My childhood friend is... a maid? What a strange name."

Abel said something with a strange expression, then naturally bought a ticket, waited, and went inside to watch.

Throughout the entire process, Baby-5 remained quiet.

Abel seemed to be under a spell of silence; he remained in a daze until he walked out of the theater.

Because although this drama is called "My Childhood Friend is a Maid," and it mainly revolves around the story of this little maid from childhood to adulthood...

But the damn problem is that this 'I' is a girl!

Moreover, the women who compete with "me" for the "beloved maid" in the drama are all "rich heiresses", "noble ladies", "kingdom princesses" and "female generals from enemy countries".

Even more outrageous is that, in order to quell the long-standing war between the two countries, this 'maid' resolutely abandoned all the aforementioned 'supporting roles' and decisively chose to marry the king of the enemy country!

And the enemy country's king is a woman too!!!

Thus, the long-standing feud between the two countries was resolved through the presence of a lovable little maid, and they returned to a life of peace.

Then, at the maid's wedding to the king, all these 'former lovers' traveled from afar to offer their sincerest blessings.

It's probably meant to say that even though you abandoned us, we're content as long as you're happy.

This is absolutely outrageous!

The Abels were already tired of watching it, although some of the intimate scenes were quite exciting and pleasing to the eye.

However, the maximum rating for 'Doubanjiang' is 3 points, no more.

"What's wrong? You look so upset?"

Baby-5 immediately looked up with teary eyes and said, "I will never watch a stage play again. They are all lies."

I guess none of the storylines that Baby-5 wanted to see were included, so they're sad.

Upon hearing this, Abel burst into laughter.

Then, with a sudden, angry rub, he messed up the little girl's hair, causing her to chase after him.

Although the changes were not significant, Abel always felt that he was subtly influencing the other person.

It's a great start that Baby-5 took the initiative to make the request today.

After finding a nice hotel to stay in, Abel calmed down.

First, I opened the system store that had just been refreshed today and took a look, but I didn't rush to make any purchases.

Instead, I opened the intermediate prayer order and started searching!

[Searching for prayer orders... Search complete!]

[Obtain an intermediate-level prayer order]

[Order Description: Orochimaru has hit a research bottleneck and needs a completely new approach to help him take that step towards breaking through the forbidden barrier.]

Chapter 173 A Secret Conversation That Shaped the Course of History

After Abel read the prayer order, his first reaction was that the types of intermediate prayer orders were not limited to one.

It features both entirely new models and retains the original framework.

This order doesn't require going to other worlds or doing any energy projection.

The second immediate reaction was...

Just how obsessed was that old snake with the Sharingan?

They've all become optional items in the prayer order, and people are even willing to exchange three forbidden techniques for them.

Although Abel felt that these three forbidden techniques were of limited value and each had its own flaws...

The problem is, where is he going to get the Sharingan?

And it's the Mangekyou Sharingan?

So far, the only item from that world that he's managed to get is [Salamander Venom]!

As for the wish orders, not counting this one, the only one was when I helped Naruto answer the Chunin Exams, and I got Naruto's "Talk-no-Jutsu" (talk-no-jutsu), but it was a one-time use and I'd already used it.

I've never even seen a glimpse of the Sharingan.

Fortunately, this is just an optional item in the order, so it doesn't matter if I don't complete it; at most, I'll just give up the extra reward.

In any case, he wasn't very interested in those three forbidden techniques.

Even if I get it, I won't be able to release chakra. It will probably be converted into a skill by the system.

That would be even more useless.

He's already worked incredibly hard to master just these few skills.
