Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle
Chapter 172 Navy Pirate Fox Demon
That night!
Moonlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Love Apartment 3602, casting a shimmering, silvery glow on the floor.
Lin Yao was sleeping in bed.
As Zeng Xiaoxian murmured "I am a good man," his eyelids gradually grew heavy, and his breathing became long and even.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Yao suddenly opened his eyes, only to find not the familiar ceiling, but a vast and boundless void of stars.
Billions of stars slowly rotated in the deep black curtain, radiating an ancient and magnificent halo.
Stars are embedded in the sky, so dazzling that they are breathtaking.
In the very center of this void, a majestic star palace floats silently.
The palace is constructed from countless star stones.
Each brick and stone seemed to shimmer with a faint starlight.
The glazed tiles on the roof of the palace refracted a rainbow of colors, as if they could suppress all the heavens and the myriad realms.
The lintel of the palace is engraved with intricate ancient patterns, and a mysterious power flows between the patterns, causing the surrounding void to tremble.
In the world of Love Apartment, Lin Yao stood before the palace, feeling the overwhelming power emanating from it, and his heart couldn't help but beat faster.
As he joined more and more worlds within the Star Palace, his strength improved day by day.
My perception of this starry space is becoming clearer, and my awe for it is growing.
Lin Yao could clearly perceive that this void was a hub connecting countless worlds, with each ray of starlight linked to a completely different spacetime.
The chosen ones of the ordinary world, or those transmigrators with extraordinary encounters.
Even with incredible cheat codes, most players can only connect to one or a few worlds at a time, like prisoners trapped in a small space.
But he was different; he divided his soul into countless parts.
Each soul resides in an independent world, transforming into individual "Lin Yaos," experiencing vastly different lives in different times and spaces.
There are even countless parallel worlds and fan-made derivative worlds.
It's like the Douluo Continent fanfiction world.
Not only does it possess the fortress of its original world, but it also benefits from the protagonist who descended upon it. Logically speaking, such a world should be difficult to invade.
However, it was utterly helpless against the Star Palace.
An unfathomable palace of stars.
Countless threads of soul energy extended from those worlds, eventually converging at the core of this palace, and also at the depths of his soul.
This power is truly terrifying.
Lin Yao felt a sense of satisfaction.
The Star Palace uses his soul as an anchor point, connecting him to countless versions of himself in different worlds.
We don't need to do anything; we just need to take a nap in our own worlds, and our souls will converge here to share each other's memories and experiences.
"I hope that one day I can truly control such power."
Lin Yao murmured to himself about the world of Love Apartment, a hint of longing flashing in his eyes.
The Star Palace is more lively than usual today.
Many people had already gathered in the square in front of the palace.
Of course, the most outstanding ones are still those few.
Groudon, encased in lava; WarGreymon, looking dashing; Ultra Dreadmon, standing there in a daze; and Lin Yao Tiga, a member of the Tiga clan with a pointed head.
These are all "Lin Yao" from different worlds.
In the very center of the crowd, three unfamiliar figures stood looking somewhat bewildered. Clearly, three more newcomers had joined the Star Palace's ranks.
Strangely, unlike in the past when newcomers joined, everyone warmly gathered around them and asked after their well-being.
Now, all the Lin Yaos are standing with their arms crossed, a hint of amusement on their faces, their eyes scanning the three newcomers.
No one took the initiative to approach and speak to them.
Lin Yao from the Love Apartment world frowned slightly, a hint of doubt and even a little dissatisfaction welling up in his heart.
You should know that Lin Yao in each world is his own soul, and the relationship between them is even closer than that of blood brothers.
Why is everyone acting like they're watching a show when new people have arrived?
Is this discrimination against newcomers?
Lin Yao thought to himself: This kind of thing doesn't apply to our Star Palace!
As he was thinking, his gaze involuntarily fell on the three newcomers.
The next second, his expression changed rapidly, from initial doubt to shock, then to a mixture of amusement and exasperation, and finally to a long, helpless sigh.
This is too coincidental, right?
Even without exchanging memories, these three newcomers could be identified at a glance simply by their clothing and appearance.
Its recognizability is simply too high.
Moreover, it seems that two of them are from the same world.
The Lin Yaos around him also shook their heads.
All eyes turned to the first newcomer on the left, and people clicked their tongues in admiration, with whispers rising and falling.
It was an extremely tall man, at least three meters tall, standing there like an iron tower, exuding a strong sense of oppression.
His face was angular and strong, his eyes were resolute, and his brows were full of the decisiveness of a soldier.
But those tightly pursed thin lips revealed a hint of unnoticed heaviness.
He wore a large, snow-white cloak, on the back of which were printed two powerful black characters: Justice.
Beneath the cloak was a crisp naval uniform, the lines on the shoulder straps clearly visible, signifying his rank of major general.
Those present, including Lin Yao, immediately recognized the origin of the outfit and couldn't help but shake their heads.
"If I'm not mistaken, this guy is probably a Marine from the One Piece world, right?"
Lin Yao, from the Douluo fanfiction world, stroked his chin, his tone slightly amused.
"Honestly, those two 'justice' characters on the navy cape are an insult to the word."
"you do not say!"
Lin Yao from another Divine Condor World immediately echoed this.
"At first, I thought the navy was at least a force that maintained the stability of the seas, but later it became increasingly strange, and it was practically the executioner of the higher-ups."
"Transmigrated to the world of One Piece and became a Marine? This job isn't going to be easy!"
Another Lin Yao clicked his tongue, his face full of sympathy.
"He might just be one of the Five Elders' dogs. He could be abandoned at any time and lose his head in a heartbeat."
By the way, is he one of us, or on the pirates' side? But... why is there another 'me' dressed exactly like a pirate next to me? Same world, and yet we can transmigrate together?
Following his gaze, everyone looked at the newlywed standing in the middle.
He was a man of equally imposing stature, slightly thinner than the navy officer Lin Yao beside him, but his muscles were like cast iron, brimming with explosive power. He wore a tattered black pirate coat, the hem stained with dust and blood, and his exposed arms were covered with crisscrossing scars, each one telling a story of a life-or-death struggle. His hair was disheveled and draped over his shoulders, his eyes were gloomy and cold, exuding an untamed ferocity, and he emanated a strong smell of blood and gunpowder—clearly, this was a notorious pirate who dominated the high seas and had an extremely high bounty.
"Damn pirates!" Navy officer Lin Yao spoke first, his voice low and his eyes filled with undisguised disgust and hostility.
"The Five Elders' lackeys!" Pirate Lin Yao immediately retorted, a mocking smile curving his lips, his tone icy and biting.
The two Lin Yaos from the world of One Piece met in mid-air, their gazes clashing fiercely. They scrutinized each other's attire, their eyes practically overflowing with hostility.
The next second, Navy Lin Yao slightly raised his hand, his fingertips swirling with wisps of blue lightning crackling, and an aura of scorching heat instantly filled the air—that was the power of thunder!
Meanwhile, pirate Lin Yao clenched his fist, and a thick layer of black Armament Haki quickly covered his entire arm like ink, causing his arm muscles to bulge instantly and exuding a heart-palpitating sense of oppression.
The two stared at each other, their eyes filled with malice, their auras rising steadily, as if they were about to start a fight at any moment.
"The power of thunder? Could it be the power of the Lightning Fruit, a Logia-type Devil Fruit?" Lin Yao and the others watching immediately became interested, craning their necks and their eyes shining.
"That black aura is definitely Armament Haki! Judging by its intensity, it must have reached a high level."
"Wow, one's a Devil Fruit user, the other's a domineering big shot, if they fight, it'll be a real show!"
"Let's fight! Let's fight!" Lin Yao from the Douluo fanfiction world waved excitedly, eager to stir up trouble.
"Hey, stop stirring up trouble!" Lin Yao, from a fantasy world, quickly pulled him back, saying with a wry smile, "And you two, calm down! We're all on the same side, fighting will only hurt our harmony!"
"Exactly!" Another Lin Yao quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, advising the Navy Lin Yao and the Pirate Lin Yao, "You two shouldn't be from the same timeline, right? There's absolutely no reason for you to fight!"
"Besides, you should have learned about the general plot of the One Piece world through the Star Palace, right?" Lin Yao from the Love Apartment world also squeezed in, looking at the two who were on the verge of conflict, and gently advised, "Logically speaking, you shouldn't be so hostile. Could it be... that something special happened in your respective worlds?"
"In my opinion, why don't we exchange memories through the illusion of the Star Palace? Then, wouldn't it be clear who is right and who is wrong?"
"..."
The group of Lin Yaos tried to dissuade them, and stepped forward to pull the two back, fearing that they might actually fight.
Fortunately, both the pirate Lin Yao and the navy Lin Yao were much more restrained than everyone had imagined. Although their eyes remained cold, they slowly suppressed their aura and allowed the crowd to separate them. However, the two still glared at each other, neither willing to back down an inch.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
This is the first time such a head-on conflict has arisen among so many new hires.
Having calmed these two powder kegs, everyone's eyes turned to the last newcomer.
Compared to the first two imposing "macho men" who were eight feet tall, this newcomer looked much more pleasing to the eye.
He was a little boy who looked no more than ten years old, petite in stature, with features as delicate as a porcelain doll. He had long, snow-white hair that flowed smoothly over his shoulders, and beneath the wispy bangs on his forehead were a pair of bright, amber eyes with slightly upturned corners, carrying a hint of the cunning characteristic of a fox. Most striking were the two fluffy white fox ears standing upright on his head, their tips slightly reddish, trembling gently with his breath, so adorable that one couldn't help but want to reach out and touch them.
He was dressed in a light pink Hanfu with an exquisite nine-tailed fox pattern embroidered on the skirt, and white soft-soled cloth shoes. He looked like a delicate porcelain doll, perfectly conforming to human aesthetics, and making people feel good at first glance.
"From the world of Fox Spirit Matchmaker, Tushan, a little fox spirit." Seeing everyone looking at him, the little guy blinked his amber eyes and introduced himself in a soft, sweet voice. He seemed to sense everyone's gaze, puffed out his little chest slightly, and added, with a hint of helplessness in his voice, "I'm not trying to act cute, it's just that I'm really young right now, only just over a hundred years old, and I can't yet transform into my adult form."
"A little fox demon over a hundred years old... Goodness, this is a genuine longevity species!" Lin Yao and the others watching immediately exclaimed with envy, looking at the little fox demon as if she were a "rare species".
"Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of the Tushan fox demon clan, their looks are simply top-tier!"
"So cute! Those ears, those eyes, I want to take them home and keep them as pets!"
"She is indeed quite cute." Navy officer Lin Yao glanced at the little fox demon, his tense lips softening slightly for once.
"I bet if I punched him, he'd be crying for a long time, right?" Pirate Lin Yao stroked his chin, a wicked smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
"You two are hopeless!" Upon hearing this, the little fox demon Lin Yao glared at them angrily, a hint of rage flashing in his amber eyes, his little face turning bright red. "Don't underestimate me just because I'm small now! I'm not weak in combat! I haven't been idle in Tushan all these years!"
He stood with his hands on his hips, his voice soft yet carrying an undeniable arrogance: "Even if you are the strongest in the One Piece world, my world of fox spirits is no weakling! If we really fight, who will win is still uncertain!"
"..."
The Lin Yaos from other worlds exchanged glances, watching the three newcomers quickly become tense again after just a few words, and couldn't help but facepalm, speechless.
Why are these three new members all so hot-tempered? Even this seemingly soft and cute little fox demon, Lin Yao, is not someone to be trifled with.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing." Lin Yao from the Love Apartment world stepped forward, clapped his hands, and attracted everyone's attention. "Anyway, since we've all gathered in the Star Palace, it's fate. We're all different incarnations of the same soul. Now, let's exchange memories and blend our experiences together so we can have a more comprehensive understanding of each other's worlds."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand first, his palm pointing towards the star palace.
On the palace lintel, the ancient patterns instantly lit up, emitting a soft white light. An invisible force enveloped the three newlyweds.
The Lin Yaos from other worlds also stretched out their hands, and strands of soul energy extended from their palms, connecting with the Star Palace.
A torrent of memories surged forth like a tide, intertwining and merging in everyone's minds.
Lin Yao, a naval officer, has memories filled with struggles of blood and tears. He was born into a peaceful fishing village. His parents were ordinary fishermen, and the family of three lived a simple but happy life. But a sudden pirate attack shattered this tranquility. The ruthless pirates ravaged the village, murdered his parents, and burned his home to the ground. He survived by sheer luck, and filled with hatred, he joined the Navy. He trained diligently, rising through the ranks with his exceptional talent, awakening the power of the Lightning Fruit, and mastering Armament Haki and Observation Haki to perfection. But as his position rose, he gradually saw the true face of the Navy's high command—the dictatorship of the Five Elders, the darkness of the World Government, and the so-called "justice" merely a fig leaf to conceal their ambitions. He watched countless innocent people perish because of the World Government's selfish desires, and saw so-called "pirates" who were actually heroes resisting tyranny. His heart was filled with pain and confusion.
Lin Yao, the pirate, has even more horrific memories. He was originally a descendant of a family of archaeologists, whose generations had guarded the secret of the "Void Century." However, this secret aroused the suspicion of the World Government. Overnight, the Navy surrounded his family and, on the trumped-up charge of "attempting to overthrow the World Government," slaughtered the entire clan. He was the sole survivor, witnessing his parents die at the Navy's hands and watching his family's records burned to ashes. From that day on, he harbored a deep hatred for the Navy and the World Government. He set sail to become a pirate, fighting against the World Government's rule. He cultivated powerful Armament Haki, forging an indestructible body, and earned a formidable reputation in the New World, with a bounty of 600 million Berries. He never indiscriminately killed innocent people; he only plundered nobles and marines who oppressed the common people. He had a good relationship with the Whitebeard Pirates and once drank and talked with Whitebeard about the true meaning of "freedom" and "justice."
After their memories merged and they learned about each other's experiences, Navy Marine Lin Yao's body trembled violently, a flicker of guilt and pain flashing in his eyes. Pirate Lin Yao's gaze, however, grew even colder. He almost instantly charged forward, throwing a punch at Navy Marine Lin Yao: "Bastards! You Navy people are all executioners!"
Navy Marine Lin Yao didn't dodge, letting the fist pound into his chest. He groaned, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, but he simply looked at Pirate Lin Yao and said in a deep voice, "I know you hate me, hate the Navy... but I have never participated in those dirty dealings!"
Before he finished speaking, he threw a punch, and the two instantly began to wrestle.
Seeing this, everyone shook their heads and sighed.
Both of them have painful memories of being persecuted by the other's forces; it would be strange if they didn't fight.
Meanwhile, the little fox demon Lin Yao stood aside with his arms crossed, watching the two fight with great interest, his amber eyes sparkling with the light of someone enjoying the spectacle.
Through the merging of memories, everyone learned about the experiences of the little fox demon Lin Yao. He was a nine-tailed fox cub from Tushan, the fourth in his family, with three powerful older sisters—Tushan Honghong, Tushan Yaya, and Tushan Rongrong. Because he was born later, his strength seemed insignificant compared to his sisters. Furthermore, in the fox demon world, the conflict between demons and humans never ceased, and with powerful enemies like the Black Fox Queen constantly lurking, he always felt his strength was too weak to protect those around him, filling him with anxiety. Over the years, he had relentlessly cultivated, day and night, and had finally barely reached the level of a half-step demon king. However, in Tushan, where powerful beings abounded, it was still insufficient. It was precisely because of this that when he learned he had joined the Star Palace, could communicate with "himself" from other worlds, and could learn the power of other worlds, his anxiety finally dissipated considerably.
"In terms of pure strength, these three newcomers can only be considered barely average among us." Lin Yao, from the world of Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect, spoke slowly as he sensed the auras of the three.
"Lin Yao, a Marine, possesses the power of the Lightning Fruit and has cultivated his Observation Haki to a top level. He is definitely one of the top experts in the Marines. Unfortunately, the conditions for awakening Conqueror's Haki are too demanding, and he has not yet developed it."
"Lin Yao, the pirate, has mastered the pinnacle of Armament Haki. His physique is as strong as a mini-Garp. He is also a powerful figure in the New World. His bounty of 600 million Berries is not just for show."
"As for the little fox demon Lin Yao, although his strength as a half-step demon king is not top-tier in the fox demon world, his bloodline is extremely powerful. As long as he is given enough time to grow, his future achievements are limitless."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Although these three newcomers did not bring a qualitative improvement to everyone's strength, their individual abilities have strong characteristics of their respective worlds, and can provide Lin Yao from other worlds with different cultivation ideas, which can be regarded as an enhancement in various aspects.
"Speaking of which, my brother from the Love Apartment world, I always thought you were just living in an ordinary urban world, spending your days joking around. I never imagined that your world was intertwined with the Love Apartment storyline!" A Lin Yao from the modern urban world patted the shoulder of the Love Apartment Lin Yao, his tone full of curiosity.
"Exactly!" another Lin Yao immediately chimed in, "The world of Love Apartment may seem ordinary, but it's actually full of hidden talents! Not only are there all sorts of bizarre powers that randomly appear, but there's also that so-called 'omnipotent' Little Black! I wonder if Little Black is really as omnipotent as the legends say?"
"Haha, you guys don't know this," Lin Yao from Love Apartment said with a smile, touching his nose. "That guy Xiao Hei is really a genius. From building rockets to fixing water pipes, there's nothing he can't do. But I think we'd better not compare our combat power and technology with comedy shows. There's no comparison at all."
"That makes sense!" Everyone burst into laughter.
Lin Yao, from a fantasy world, said thoughtfully, "Actually, the safety of a world can't be judged solely by appearances. Take the world of Love Apartment, for example. It seems like a peaceful city, but who knows if a powerful enemy might suddenly appear one day? There are precedents for this, but people weren't strong enough to notice it before."
"That makes sense." Navy Lin Yao and Pirate Lin Yao had stopped fighting at some point; both were injured, but unusually, they didn't argue anymore. Navy Lin Yao looked at everyone and said in a deep voice, "No matter what world you're in, improving your strength is always the top priority."
"That's right!" Pirate Lin Yao nodded, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. "Now that we have the Star Palace as a link, we can share our power and experience. In the future, we'll definitely become stronger!"
The little fox demon Lin Yao nodded vigorously, his amber eyes gleaming with determination: "I want to become stronger, strong enough to protect Tushan and my sisters!"
The group exchanged smiles, their eyes brimming with fighting spirit.
In the vast void of stars, the light of the Star Palace shone ever brighter. Countless souls from different worlds were now tightly bound together. They shared the same name, the same soul, and a common goal—to become stronger and protect everything they wanted to protect.
And this is just the beginning.
Behind the Star Palace, countless worlds await their exploration and conquest.
