The most courageous pirate hunter

Developing a Devil Fruit is a very interesting thing, especially when you feel yourself getting stronger, even if it's just a little bit, that feeling is enough to ward off all loneliness.

this day.

Mansherry called everyone back, because Hermes had finished his seclusion.

It's time to eliminate the World Government and completely bathe the ocean in God's glory.

"Hahaha~"

"Tesoro, your strength is still a bit inferior to mine."

Island of Gods.

A mirror rippled, and Burgess walked out laughing, followed by Tesoro with a blackened face. Because he ate the Ton-Ton Fruit, Tesoro had already ranked high in strength.

"Your Strength Fruit and Tremor-Tremor Fruit both focus on strength, so of course I can't compare."

Tesoro looked gloomy.

It's worth mentioning that both of them have undergone some changes in appearance.

Burgess, leading the charge, was muscular and his surroundings were constantly filled with gaps, indicating that he had made considerable progress with both the Strength-Strength Fruit and the Tremor-Tremor Fruit in recent years.

Tesoro is a living golden man. His muscles, skin, and blood are all made of gold and liquid gold. This guy has a high talent. Not to mention that his whole body is made of gold and his defense is very hard, he can even recover if he is hit into seven or eight pieces.

Just like the elementalization of nature.

"You two, move aside."

A silent voice came from the mirror world. Guyram stepped out, not much different. He was still wearing a red scarf and carrying a large iron hammer made of sea stone, but a gray force field hung around him.

That's a gravitational field.

If left unchecked, he would be like a towering mountain, possessing unparalleled weight.

"Hahaha~"

"I've been hesitating for five years, so should I eat a Devil Fruit or not?!"

Follow closely behind.

Hody Jones carried a seastone trident, with Zeus and Prometheus floating on his shoulders, and Napoleon on his head. The three Homies all had evil faces, unlike when he was with Big Mom, when he was usually in a peaceful state.

"You can consider it, after all, the future journey is to the stars and the universe."

Lucci followed out with a cold expression, looking much like Tesoro's golden statue, except that he was in human-beast form, a state he had maintained for five years.

In other words, he hasn't been a human being for five years.

“Lu Qi is right. Although you are already very strong, you are still a little weaker than us.”

Bruno nodded seriously, agreeing that Hody Jones should give it serious consideration.

At the same time, I felt somewhat unreal and strange.

"There's a big difference between having a Devil Fruit and not having one. Be careful not to fall behind us."

Enel has also changed drastically. No matter how you look at him, he is a humanoid lightning bolt, as if he has completely lost his human characteristics. He has maintained this humanoid elemental state for half a year.

He can be described as the embodiment of thunder.

"You guys are all terrifying, but Hody Jones really should eat a Devil Fruit."

A humanoid golden light emerged, its appearance completely obscured, but its voice revealed it to be Borsalino. Its state was similar to Enel's, both remaining in humanoid elemental form.

The embodiment of light.

"Whoosh~"

"You are all here."

Not a moment later.

At the highest peak of God's Island, under that giant maple tree, when the group arrived, there were already people waiting: Caesar, Vegapunk, Queen, and Judge, along with Mansherry eating ice cream.

The five people haven't changed much.

"Has the BOSS not appeared yet?"

Enel found a stone bench to sit on and looked at the huge dragon-shaped book floating under the maple tree. At this moment, when the book was closed, the first page could not be seen, but there was a huge dragon-shaped face on the cover.

"not yet!"

Quinn, puffing on a cigar, looked a little older than before.

"Alright then, let's wait and see!"

The others yawned, found places to sit, drank, or ate, and an hour passed while they waited.

"The Father God is about to emerge."

The Book of Creation spoke, and then the great book opened. The first page showed a world with sky islands, other islands, and various rare or legendary creatures.

It can be described as a combination of paradise and hell.

The figure flickers.

Hermes appeared out of thin air, three feet off the ground, just as he had five years ago, no longer so flashy, but simply ordinary.

Flame-shaped white hair standing on end, red eyes with white pupils, handsome large face...

Compared to Enel and others, he has returned to simplicity to the point of being completely unrefined.

Looking at it this way, it seems that Hermes has already passed that flashy stage, while Enel and the others are just beginning, and will eventually return to normal like Hermes.

"What's going on with you guys? It's really glaring."

Hermes was slightly taken aback.

Look at all these monstrosities.

A golden statue? A human-shaped lightning bolt? A human-shaped golden beam? A human-shaped leopard? An atmospheric rift? Is it really necessary to be so colorful? It looks like something out of a "punk" fashion magazine.

Is this the midlife rebellion phase?

"Cough cough cough~"

"Boss, putting us aside, how come you haven't changed at all? I'm talking about your appearance!"

Tezzolo coughed.

Everyone else looked at Hermes, feeling this was unlike him; he was being unusually low-key.

"Oh~"

"Perhaps I've passed those youthful and impetuous years; after all, I'm already in my forties!"

"Van Gufried, draw a hot pot."

Hermes moved to his position, and as soon as he finished speaking, Van Goghfried automatically left his waist, transformed into the Creation Brush, and began to draw. Soon, a complete hot pot appeared.

The group then took their seats in turn.

"Boss, in these five years, no, it should be these ten years in the book world, have you made any progress?"

Burgess was very curious.

They had also entered the book world to cultivate during those five years, but they didn't stay in the book world as long as Hermes did, so in terms of time, Hermes used more time than them.

"Just a little bit!"

"Let's all get started, eat and chat!"

Hermes waved his hand casually, then started simmering tripe in the hot pot. He then looked at Vegapunk and the other three and said, "I think you should conduct your research in the book world from now on! Make use of the time difference, otherwise, who knows how long it will take to develop technologies like light-speed spaceships and space jumps."

"Okay, boss."

Caesar and the other three nodded.

Unsurprisingly, they made little progress in the past five years, even with Borsalino and Bruno's cooperation in their research, they still didn't achieve any major breakthroughs.

"Any progress has the young man made? He should get moving after this hot pot meal."

Hermes gestured for everyone to raise their glasses, then drank the red wine in his glass in one gulp and said...

The others were somewhat expectant, but not very enthusiastic.

Because I've become stronger, my horizons have broadened.

"It's been updated to Old Boys!"

"And they've been mass-produced, with a current stockpile of 1,000. Calculations show that around 100,000 Old Boys would be enough to completely destroy this planet."

"If you put them into the Earth's core, you won't need so many."

Although there haven't been any major breakthroughs in other projects, there are still plenty of big boys.

Therefore, Caesar answered with great confidence.

"That's stable."

Hermes smiled. How could he possibly lose? What could the World Government possibly use to fight him?
