Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me

Yi Xiao said, "It's about 50,000 meters away."

"Did the other side notice anything?" asked Lox.

"Probably not."

"It seems the other side hasn't mastered Observation Haki, so this trip should be foolproof."

Rocks smiled.

Those who possess Observation Haki can sense others' prying eyes.

Nami's previous electromagnetic wave scans could also be detected by Observation Haki.

Since the other party is not taking any action, it means that they are not aware of the danger.

They can't escape now!

Kuina was impressed by Issho's mastery of Observation Haki: "Can Observation Haki still spread more than 50,000 meters away even when blocked by seawater?"

"Mr. Issho's Observation Haki is indeed formidable."

"It's just the convenience that comes with ability."

With a humble smile, he added, "Your Observation Haki is progressing quite well, but you don't need to develop it in terms of range."

"Observation Haki also has different variations, allowing one to 'know the future' and move forward in that direction."

"I am also developing in the direction of 'predicting the future'."

Guina nodded.

Her development of Observation Haki is geared towards "predicting the future".

The perception of murderous intent and malice is largely based on the swordsman's "intuition".

Kuina glanced at Rocks and said, "If we're talking about the progress of Observation Haki, I estimate it's faster than Rocks's, who was born with Observation Haki."

Locus: "..."

Why would anyone criticize him?

Kuina, you've changed!

Rocks raised an eyebrow and said, "That's not necessarily true. Once I relearn the Isshin-ryu swordsmanship and temper my mind, I might suddenly grasp the advanced level."

Kuina said, "When are you going to resume practicing Isshin-ryu swordsmanship? And you haven't forgotten our duel, have you?"

Rocks pursed his lips: "I'll start practicing Isshin-ryu swordsmanship again tomorrow, and we'll spar again in a few days. It's been a long time since I practiced Isshin-ryu swordsmanship, and I'm trying to get back into the swing of things these past two days."

"What, are you afraid I'll run away?"

"I'm afraid you'll cheat me."

Guina tossed her hair: "It's rare to encounter something I'm confident I can beat you, and I don't want to waste it."

"Me? Playing the cheater?"

Lox pointed to himself and said unhappily, "When have I ever cheated?"

He felt insulted.

When did the mighty "Blackwing Demon" Rocks, one of the Five Emperors, start cheating?

Kuina stared at Lox and said truthfully, "When playing Go with Robin, I don't know who deliberately overturned the board, but after Robin overturned the game, he wouldn't admit it..."

Rocks's lips twitched: "..."

Yes, that's true.

It was around that time that Rocks learned that Robin also had a photographic memory.

You can't get rid of it even if you want to!

After a pause, Locke said meaningfully, "I remember you were cultivating back then, weren't you? You were actually keeping an eye on me while you were cultivating? Tsk tsk tsk, I never expected that..."

"Well……"

Guina blushed for once, which was rare for her.

She turned her face away, feigning composure: "Back then, Nami was making a big fuss, which is why I paid attention to what happened..."

Lox drew out his words: "Is that so?"

"Of course!"

Kuina nodded emphatically, then stood up and said, "Just don't try to cheat me!"

"My Observation Haki has also sensed the target. Let's deal with this matter first!"

During their casual conversation, they were getting closer to their destination...

Chapter 209 Invites Jinbe to Join! You can receive the protection of two "Sea Emperors" at the same time!

The outcome of the battle needs no further explanation.

Jinbe, the blue fat cat, rushed forward and, with a flurry of blows, captured Vander Deiken IX alive...

"How...how did you know I was here?"

On the deck of the patrol boat, Vander Decken IX was still somewhat incredulous at the fact that he had been captured alive.

They even began to doubt the meaning of life.

This is his stronghold, and its location is very well hidden.

It is quite a distance from Fishman Island.

It's highly unlikely they'll be discovered...

How did a "One Piece" Jinbe suddenly appear? When was he exposed?

"You can only blame yourself for being slow-witted and lacking in the senses of Thor, who possesses superhuman perception."

Lox chuckled and said, "If you walk on the roadside often, you're bound to get your shoes wet. Your fate was inevitable."

Without Nami, they would have had a real hard time finding this guy.

These cautious people are the hardest to deal with.

If you run into them, you can only blame your bad luck...

Looking at the bruised and battered Vander Deiken IX, Kuina shook her head and said, "Even weaker than Hody Jones's men. Aren't fishmen supposed to have ten times the strength of humans? I can't see that at all..."

Lox said, "Fishmen are physically stronger than ordinary humans, that's for sure. You only seem weak to me because you're too strong right now."

Kuina looked at Lox: "You can handle them without me coming, right?"

"We didn't even make a move..."

"The main purpose is to have you, an incapable person, come and cover for us. Nobody knows if an accident might happen."

Lox shrugged: "Neither I nor Yixiao can go into the water. Having more people gives us more confidence. We're not here for you to fight."

Kuina replied somewhat helplessly, "Oh."

Rocks looked at Vander Decken IX, pulled a fruit that resembled a sea urchin from his pocket, and muttered to himself, "I wonder if the fruit from Fish-Man Island can become a Devil Fruit..."

"If this doesn't work, we'll lose a Devil Fruit on this trip."

Stealing the Devil Fruit from Vander Decken IX was also one of the reasons Rocks came here.

Because of the tight schedule, Rocks only took the fruits that were a specialty of Fishman Island.

It's unknown whether this fruit could become the vessel for the Devil Fruit.

“Um, Your Excellency, this is…”

Seeing Rocks' actions, Jinbe, who hadn't heard Rocks' words, was somewhat puzzled: "Are you thirsty?"

Why bring out the "Gallbladder Fruit" at this time?

Locus: "..."

Instead of answering, Rocks asked, "Speaking of which, has any Devil Fruit ever been reborn on your Fish-Man Island?"

Although Jinbe was curious about why Rocks asked that question, he still replied, "Although the chances are small, it has happened before."

"They are some Devil Fruit users who arrived on Fish-Man Island and died, then were reborn on Fish-Man Island..."

"Really?"

Rocks nodded.

The ocean is the nemesis of the devil's fruit.

Fish-Man Island is located deep in the ocean, so it is unlikely that a Devil Fruit could be "reborn" on Fish-Man Island.

However, it is possible that the Devil Fruit users who died on Fishman Island could be reborn from their Devil Fruit powers.

The fruit on Fishman Island is still fruit, and fruit can serve as a "carrier".

Pointing at Vander Deiken IX, Lockes asked again, "This guy shouldn't need to be taken back for trial, right?"

Jinbe seemed to realize something, and said, "According to the laws of Fish-Man Island, a trial is required."

"However, if you wish to deal with the other party... please do so!"

"?"

When Vander Deiken IX heard that he was to be punished, his face turned pale instantly: "Hey, you... what are you going to do?"

"It's nothing, I'll take your Devil Fruit..."

Rocks smirked, flicked his finger, and a phantom bullet pierced the opponent's forehead.

Then, with a grab of his right hand, he grasped an "invisible object" in his hand.

'Om! '

Press this "invisible thing" onto the gallnut.

With a soft hum, the shape of the gall bladder fruit changed, transforming into a devil fruit shaped like a target.

Paramecia-type Target-Target Fruit!

Looking at the Devil Fruit in his hand, Rocks laughed: "Hey, not bad, another Devil Fruit."

Sandy fruit, swallowing fruit, porcupine fruit, target fruit.

Rocks now has four Devil Fruits!

Upon seeing this, Jinbe's pupils contracted: "This is..."

The Black-Winged Demon Lord is actually able to steal the Devil Fruit from the body of a Devil Fruit user!?

What kind of ability is this?

Rocks waved his hand: "Don't be surprised. It's possible for humans to create Devil Fruits. Stealing Devil Fruits is nothing special."

Vegapunk was already able to artificially create Devil Fruits, and later even something called "green blood" appeared.

The Vinsmoke family can also modify the human body through bloodline factors...

To be honest, stealing the Devil Fruit isn't as horrifying as it seems in comparison.

Jinbe: "..."

He'd never even heard of it!

Taking a deep breath, Jinbe solemnly said, "This kind of thing cannot be revealed, otherwise you will become a laughingstock."

Blackwing Demon can steal the abilities of Devil Fruit users.

If this gets leaked, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble.

Lox, however, didn't care at all: "It doesn't matter. Most of those who threaten me are my enemies. As for those who don't threaten me, it's no use no matter how many come. They should first gain a foothold in front of me."

He has already offended the world's largest power, and two of the sea emperors are his enemies...

Rocks already had many enemies.

Even if this matter gets out, his situation won't be too bad.

Jinbe: "..."

Remembering that Blackwing Daemon had killed two Celestial Dragons, a noble race from the world, he now had an irreconcilable feud with the World Government.
