One Piece Talk King: Starting with Commentary on Devil Fruits

Monkey D. Luffy didn't know how many punches he had thrown—ten? A hundred? A thousand? Ten thousand? A hundred thousand…

The Monkey God Spear relentlessly ravaged Doflamingo's body for a long time afterward, and Luffy persevered through sheer willpower, determined to kill his opponent, to kill Doflamingo.

"Rubber Ape God Gun"

Luffy unleashed his final punch in front of the celestial camera, shattering the entire domain. Doflamingo's remaining half-head was sent flying out of the Founding Titan, marking the complete defeat of the Heavenly Demon in front of the camera.

After eight hundred years, the D clan has finally defeated the God clan. Today's victor is Monkey D. Luffy.

Chapter 243 White Town

The Straw Hat Pirates, still adrift at sea, saw Luffy in the sky finally defeat the Shichibukai Doflamingo on his own, and the crew members excitedly embraced each other.

Sanji wanted to take advantage of Nami. He opened his arms to hug the little thief, but she refused and stuck her shoe print on his face, making the lecherous cook back down.

"Luffy's domain expansion is something only you could come up with. I doubt you could even conceive of anything complex with your brain. Defeating Doflamingo was truly satisfying."

Five years later, Luffy's domain expansion effect is too simple and crude. It was born for hand-to-hand combat and has no technique whatsoever. Its only characteristic of absorbing the core values ​​of the enemy is truly abnormal. Only the rubber man's physical strength can withstand it.

Straw Hat Luffy enjoyed the praise from his companions, his mouth stretching uncontrollably to his ears, and he maintained a wide smile.

The thought of defeating an unprecedentedly powerful opponent with his Devil Fruit ability filled the boy with immense satisfaction and pride. His years of training in the jungles of Windmill Town had not been in vain; he had indeed chosen the right path of honing his Devil Fruit powers. He felt a sense of gratitude towards Buggy the Clown for helping him overcome his confusion and pointing him towards a brighter future.

Despite the atmosphere being so lively, some people couldn't help but pour cold water on it, saying things that didn't fit the mood. Chopper transformed into human form and shouted, "What are you going to do about Eren? He's using the Rumbling in the future to hurt many innocent people. How will Luffy treat him in the future? Aren't you worried?"

"That's right!" Everyone then realized that the Founding Titan was still undefeated, and the joyful atmosphere instantly turned to freezing. Luffy's smile froze on his face. He hadn't figured out how to deal with his friend. Although his friend had done something wrong, he still felt sorry for Eren.

He believes that Alan is essentially a kind person, and it was the tragedy that happened in Flevance that completely twisted his personality. This is the world's fault, not his.

Luffy thought for a long time but couldn't find a reason to take Eren's life. He believed that everything could be salvaged and that perhaps a grand banquet could wash away the past sorrows.

Moreover, Allen absolutely cannot be handed over to the Navy. This view is consistent with his own in the Sky Curtain. There are only a few people in the Navy who can be close friends. The old Navy has serious corruption problems and its image is too outrageous. Ordinary people really can't afford to gamble on the character of the Navy in their own backyard.

Everyone was very worried about Allen's future, given that they had only recently become friends, and Tianmu thoughtfully addressed their concerns.

After the scene of Doflamingo's defeat ends, the style changes and a little boy appears in the frame, opening his arms to the blue sky and white clouds, feeling a freedom he has never experienced before.

A relaxed smile appeared on the boy's face in the sky, while on the ground was a cruel scene of earth-shattering destruction. Colossal giants walked side by side, crushing any intelligent life in their wake into mincemeat. Countless small islands in the sea were trapped in this hellish scene.

Ordinary people, powerless to resist, can only cry out in despair. Some want to jump into the sea to save themselves, some stand still and wait to die, some launch an attack on the colossal giant, some hug their families, and so on, forming an incredibly huge scene of world destruction that shocks the audience's psychological endurance.

As for the boy's identity, it was not hard to guess. His appearance was quite similar to Allen's, and everyone guessed that he might be Allen when he was young. Judging from his appearance, he should be no more than ten years old. But why did Tianmu give a shot of Allen when he was ten years old?

The King of Men is trapped in a kind of memory bubble, and his memories of Allen are slowly told to the audience. The fragmented narrative lets people know what exactly happened in Flevance that night, and how the white town was turned into ruins overnight due to abandonment by many parties.

First memory fragment: The image of a nun appears on screen, with a little girl beside her. She introduces her, saying, "This is Ada, your older sister. From now on, you two are family, Allen. No matter what happens, you must protect each other."

This was the first time Allen had met Ada. Both children were war orphans and were adopted by the nun not long after. Perhaps this was fate.

Second memory fragment: Because of her high talent, and because Alan was always fighting with a group of children outside, Ada had the idea of ​​becoming a doctor. When the nun learned of this, she readily agreed and recommended her to the Trafalgar family.

The other party was a well-known doctor in town, and it shouldn't be difficult for the male head of the household to find a little assistant. Just as the nun thought, the doctor did not refuse. Alan took advantage of his sister's fame and often went to the doctor's house for meals. During this time, he met the brother and sister, Law and Rami.

As a child, Luo Lizhi aspired to be a doctor and was a smart kid who absolutely outsmarted Allen. However, the latter usually preferred to settle things with his fists, and when the two boys had a conflict, they would resolve it with their physical skills.

The two of them didn't hold grudges after a fight, and occasionally they would sit by the river and discuss life together, which was one of the few times they had common topics.

Wearing his spotted hat, Luo held the book and pointed excitedly at the illustrations, saying, "The outside world is so wonderful! There are volcanoes, snowfields, and a magnificent ocean. When I grow up, I must go on an adventure outside."

Regarding the naive fantasies of a child from a middle-class family, Allen also had to consider his own practical problems. "If you want to go on an adventure at sea, you'll have to get past your father first. Perhaps when I'm out there making my way, you'll still be stuck in Fryvanes, following in your father's footsteps as a doctor. Perhaps I'll be more free in this respect."

The idea of ​​freedom took root in Alan's young mind early on. This kind of life, where he was sometimes hungry and sometimes full, was too cruel for a child. He wanted to grow up quickly so that he could share the burden with the nun and his sister, but unfortunately, it was too late for the White Town.

The third memory fragment: Rami, Luo's sister, contracted a strange disease like the other adults. White spots appeared on her skin, and those who contracted the disease suffered terribly. Luo's father, a highly skilled doctor, was powerless to help and could only watch his daughter fall ill. Soon, people began to die in the white town, and a terrifying rumor spread from Flevans to the surrounding countries.

The royal family of Flevans was taken away by the World Government immediately. The escape of those in power plunged the people into despair. Residents who had not yet fallen ill wanted to leave the place, but before they could even step across the border, they were met with gunfire from their friendly neighbors.

Foreign soldiers in protective suits began erecting barbed wire around Frevans. If any residents of the white town dared to cross the line, the soldiers would immediately open fire and kill them, regardless of whether they were elderly, women, children, or pregnant women—all were subject to annihilation.

The town, once as beautiful as a fairy tale, became overnight a source of terrifying disease and a living hell that people from other countries avoided at all costs.

Young Alan stood on the streets of Frevans, looking at the panicked adults around him. He didn't understand why all this was happening. Was lead poisoning really contagious?

Chapter 244 The Source of Tragedy

Since activating the Rumbling power, Allen's mind has entered a kind of memory bubble, immersing him in different memories and allowing him to experience the joys and sorrows he has previously gone through.

Fourth memory fragment: The foster mother, Sister, excitedly hugged Allen and Ada, "We're saved! They promised to give me a boat and a way for the children to survive."

With fires raging everywhere in Flevance, and multiple sources of fire burning simultaneously, it was clear that someone had deliberately set the fires. Considering the heavily armed soldiers on the streets, clearing out survivors one by one and shooting residents regardless of whether they were ill, could the promises of these cold-blooded executioners really be trusted?

At that moment, Ada immediately thought of her good friends, "What about Law and Rami? Let's take them on board!"

When his sister asked for a favor, the younger brother naturally complied. Alan volunteered to go to the doctor's house. Seeing the two women's worried looks, the boy patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, no one knows Frevans better than me. Those bad adults can't catch me."

The young man set off under the watchful eyes of his family. On the way to the doctor's house, Allen tried to keep his footsteps as quiet as possible to avoid the guns of the "foreign" soldiers.

On his journey, he witnessed a tragedy: a young couple protected their child, pleading with the people in front of them to spare the infant in their arms. The husband kowtowed and smiled obsequiously, but the soldiers never lowered their muskets.

Bang bang bang... After several gunshots, the young couple fell into a pool of blood. But that wasn't enough. Soldiers in protective suits continued to stab vital organs, sparing neither adults nor children. Only after confirming that the family was completely dead did the soldiers stand up again, ready to continue searching for their next target.

Allen, who witnessed the entire process, covered his mouth, afraid of making a sound and being discovered by the soldier. Tears welled up in his eyes. Witnessing a fellow human being brutally murdered was too cruel for a child under ten years old.

Suppressing his fear and wild thoughts, Allen quickened his pace toward the doctor's house. Trafalgar Law's family was a wealthy middle-class family in town, with a large house that the poor envied. Law's father was a respected doctor, and perhaps he could cure lead poisoning, which would save the people of Flevans!

When Allen arrived at the familiar spot for free meals, thick black smoke was already billowing from Law's house, and flames were engulfing the place. The boy realized something was wrong; something had definitely happened to this family. Allen didn't care about anything else; he found a first-floor window and climbed into the house.

The room was filled with choking black smoke and flames. Allen covered his mouth and nose and felt his way to the master bedroom. On the floor lay the bodies of the doctor and his wife. Seeing this, he could not hide his grief. Why did good people have to be killed? Law's parents were among the few kind people he had ever met.

A sense of sorrow inevitably arose in the young heart, and a seed of revenge sprouted at this moment. The fire inside the house grew larger and larger, and Allen was unable to move the adult's body. He had to escape first and tell the nun this information. Those soldiers were definitely not to be trusted.

Before the boy could climb out the window, he heard a cough coming from a room. It was a little girl's voice. Without thinking twice, Allen immediately went to find the source of the sound.

Rami was sitting in the wardrobe. The thick smoke in the room forced her to open the wardrobe door a crack. She kept her promise and was still waiting for her brother here. Not long ago, Luo heard gunshots and hid him in the wardrobe. After that, there was no sound in the room and a fire started to break out. The little girl was too scared to move and stayed in the wardrobe.

"Rami, is that you? It's Allen, I've come to save you!" The girl heard a familiar voice and pushed open the closet door, only to see a boy with a face covered in soot burst into the room.

Allen didn't give the girl much time to explain. He rushed over and put her on his back. Rami was very touched by his actions, but the girl was still somewhat resistant: "Brother Allen, don't touch me. My disease might be contagious. I don't want to infect you."

The girl, whose face was already covered in white spots, was suffering terribly from lead poisoning. She didn't want anyone around her to get infected with the disease, but at this point, Allen couldn't care less. He couldn't let Luo's sister die in the fire. This time, he showed his manly strength and decided to forcibly take her away from here. He would explain when he met Luo later.

The fire inside the house grew larger and larger, and the place where they had originally entered was already engulfed in flames. Allen carried Rami on his back and ran to the kitchen on the first floor, leaving through a small window. Shortly after the two children escaped, the building behind them began to collapse. Fortunately, they got out in time.

After rescuing Rami, Allen made a decision: he couldn't take her to the nun. As for the ship of hope his foster mother had mentioned, he had more and more reason to suspect that it was a trap from the beginning. The boy had seen too much evil in human nature since he was young, and he couldn't let Rami go from one danger to another.

They placed the girl in a secluded spot and told her, "Rami, you wait here for us. I'm going to find your brother and my sister. Don't trust anyone in the meantime."

Rami nodded obediently after hearing this, her two small eyes looking in the direction Allen had left. She was very grateful to her savior, but for some reason, the girl suddenly had a premonition that this might be the last time they would see each other.

The boy returned to the nuns with a hateful look in his eyes. He learned from his foster mother that the soaking wet Luo had come by earlier. He had heard the nuns mention the Ship of Hope, and then he ran home to find his sister. It was such a coincidence that they had missed each other. But when Allen tried to leave, he found it was too late. Heavily armed soldiers had already surrounded them by the river.

Allen pulled Ida's little hand and retreated to the back of the crowd. In front of them was a group of teenagers. The nun was talking to the soldier leader: "Our children have not been infected with lead poisoning. They are not grown up yet. Please, let them go."

The soldier leader, wearing a gas mask that obscured his expression, spoke in a cold voice: "For the sake of the neighboring countries and all of humanity, you must be sacrificed. Show no mercy and prepare to fire."

The nun clutched at the soldier's clothes, her cries affecting the children, and a group of boys and girls began to wail, "Please don't shoot! Don't shoot! Please don't shoot!"

Ignoring the pity for the women and children, the soldiers opened fire without hesitation. As the gunfire erupted, the children fell in rows like wheat. The nun, witnessing this desperate scene, felt her faith and kindness completely crumble.

The woman was pushed to the ground by the soldier leader. At the end of her life, she looked in the direction of the children, muttering incoherently, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." It was her kindness and easy trust that led her to do something bad and completely harm the children. If they hadn't been brought together, perhaps one of them would have had a chance to survive.

Several merciless bullets pierced the nun's body. Just as she was about to lose her breath, she saw two familiar figures leap into the river. Heaven hadn't let her kindness be completely destroyed; it had preserved two seeds of revenge for Flevans.

Chapter 245 First Giant Transformation

Of the children's massacre, only Eren and his sister Ada survived by jumping into the river. Soldiers chased them down the river, forcing them to separate. But no one expected that they would meet again twenty years later in Dressrosa.

With pursuers behind him, he could only flee desperately. The once beautiful white town of Flevance was engulfed in flames and turned black. From the moment the amber and lead mines were started a hundred years ago, this tragic ending was already destined, just as the saying goes, "What you rise to power by means of this, you will also perish by means of this."

The man hid in the woods near Frevans for about two days, during which he encountered two groups of soldiers who used lies to lure the survivors. Some fools actually fell for it and came out to be shot. At this point, Allen no longer trusted anyone.

Little Allen didn't have much body fat to begin with, and hunger drove him to look for food at night. The boy didn't dare to come out during the day, as the executioners chose to search the mountain when the sun was out; nighttime was the safest camouflage.

By the moonlight, the boy groped his way through the woods, hoping to find some berries. His stomach had reached its limit after two days without food or water, and if he still hadn't eaten by the third day, he might not have the strength to leave the woods.

No, no, still nothing! The forest was full of leaves, nothing at all, not even a single fruit. There was no chance to collect any bird eggs. Allen tried to gnaw on the bark, but the taste was really unpleasant, and the wood chips stung his mouth.

"Am I going to die here? I'm not reconciled, I'm so unwilling..." Allen swayed his thin body in the night, wandering aimlessly through the forest, his hatred for this world had reached its peak.

If one day he gets the chance, the boy will definitely take revenge on this filthy world, avenge the innocent people who died in Flevans, and make the world feel the pain he suffered today.

Oops! Alan tripped over something while not paying attention, and just as he was about to vent his anger on the thing that tripped him, the boy suddenly opened his eyes wide and saw a fruit the size of a child's head.

But its bright red color might mean it's poisonous, right? But then he thought that dying from poisoning was better than starving to death. The former was a more painful death, while the latter was too torturous. Allen didn't mind the dirtiness of the fruit and started gnawing on it. He was just too hungry.

"This fruit tastes awful, this weird flavor!" This was the worst food Allen had ever eaten in his life. He wanted to live, he wanted to see the outside world, but the boy forced himself to finish the fruit in his arms.

After eating for a full ten minutes, Allen leaned against a tree and let out a burp. His stomach was now completely full. Although the fruit was really unpalatable, it was rich in pulp and water, and the boy felt that after eating this one, he wouldn't need to look for food for the next two days.

When God opens a window for you, He always thoughtfully closes the door. Tonight, soldiers were actually searching the mountains at night. Allen, who had just eaten a hearty meal, took a nap. By the time he realized that someone was coming, it was too late. The ruthless killing machines were already close.

The boy could only cover his mouth and huddle in the shade of the tree, hoping to escape the search this time, just like the previous two days. He had finally managed to get a full stomach and wanted to survive.

Two soldiers without protective suits passed by Allen's hiding place, but they didn't expect that the one behind them was not simple. No sound could escape his Observation Haki. As long as a heart was beating, he would always be able to detect the sound. He had already personally killed two survivors in tonight's Clear Mountain operation.

"Sure enough, there are people here too. Judging from the voice, it's just a little brat." Allen recognized the voice; it was the voice of the soldier leader, the one who had given the order to slaughter the children.

Without hesitation, the soldier leader fired into the shade of the tree. The bullet pierced Allen's body, causing blood to gush from his throat. Faced with such inhuman treatment, the boy dared not move, his heart filled with unprecedented hatred, and the flames of revenge were about to consume everything.

The two soldiers turned back and pulled Allen's body out of the shadows. Blood stained his clothes, and the look in his eyes began to fade. The soldier leader was still not satisfied with the boy's miserable state, so he ordered, "Give him a shot in the head."

The cold muzzle of the gun was pointed at Eren's little head, but a miraculous scene unfolded before the soldier carrying out the order: golden arcs of electricity began to appear at the boy's wound, and scorching white steam began to emanate from his body. Before the soldier who was about to finish him off could react, the boy's body swelled and deformed, eventually becoming a Pure Titan over five meters tall.

"Ah... what kind of monster is this?" The Pure Titan, resembling Eren, grabbed the nearest soldier and swallowed his head whole without hesitation. After throwing the headless corpse away, it pounced on another stunned soldier.

The soldier raised his gun and fired, the bullet hitting the little giant, but the giant showed no pain. As expected, this human became the Pure Titan's meal, and the human meat was chewed incessantly in Eren's mouth.

"Is it a Devil Fruit ability? What a waste to waste it on you, otherwise you could have sold it for a lot of Berries." The soldier leader put down his musket and drew his sword from his waist, which was wrapped in a layer of black Armament Haki.
