Chapter 128 The Power of the Soul-Soul Fruit, the Power of Soul Manipulation

The return of the younger version of Charlotte Linlin certainly excited her children. The now more powerful Charlotte Linlin quickly won over her group of children.

Although she lost the Soul-Soul Fruit, the Homies that Charlotte Linlin created earlier are still alive.

Zeus, Prometheus, and Napoleon, the three strongest Homies, still followed her.

Upon returning to the Kingdom of Treasures, Charlotte Lingling indulged in a feast and then inquired about the condition of her women.

He then learned that his youngest daughter, Brin, had been taken away by Rod.

"Well, well, well! I never expected that little girl to go to that man's side in this way. Well, that's good. I'll have more say in the future," Charlotte Linlin said.

"Mom, are we really going to surrender to that man?" Charlotte asked.

"There's nothing I can do about it. Your mother, I died once, and I owe it all to Kaido. That kid owes me a huge favor."

"Otherwise, you wouldn't have seen me this time. I'm already on that kid's ship now, so it'll be the same as when I was with the Rocks Pirates!" Charlotte Linlin said.

Charlotte Linlin didn't tell her children about the demon contract she signed, since it meant her soul was enslaved and her life and death were completely in the other party's hands.

Her eldest and second sons did a good job this time, preserving the power of her family. After all, even their mother had been captured, so what could her sons do?

"Mom! You mean, as long as he's strong enough, we'll follow him forever, but what if he's not strong enough?" Katakuri asked.

To be honest, during the month or so that his mother was away, Rod and Kaido treated them quite well, and he wouldn't object to following this captain. Therefore, he didn't want his mother to rebel, and if she showed any intention of rebelling, he might even inform on her.

"No! Don't get any other ideas. Just follow this new captain. We'll gain more from him. He's different from Rocks. He's more ambitious and more powerful than Rocks," Charlotte Linlin said.

As long as the demon contract exists, one must submit unconditionally, let alone one's own children. They should stay obediently on the other side's ship!

Moreover, there are benefits to be had; at the very least, you'll become younger and gain even greater power.

"Alright, enough with the nonsense. Hurry up and get me some pastries and cakes. I have to leave in three days. This time, Katakuri and Cracker, you two will come with me. Perospero, you and Smoothie will look after your younger siblings," the old woman said.

Kaido's crew members have all gained new power, so they have to bring their sons along to get a share of the spoils.

Three days passed quickly. During these three days, Charlotte Linlin did nothing but eat and try to control her demonic transformation and familiarize herself with this new power of fel energy.

Three days later, after calming down the people of the Kingdom of Twice, Charlotte Linlin led her two sons through the Dark Gate to meet Rhodes.

After seeing Charlotte Linlin off that day, Rod immediately ate the Soul-Soul Fruit, gaining the power to manipulate souls, and then practiced the fruit's abilities for three days.

After consuming the Soul-Soul Fruit, Rhode quickly mastered its power. His soul, having been modified by Azeroth, had reached the level of a demigod, far surpassing mortals, making it relatively easy for him to control the Soul-Soul Fruit.

The Soul-Soul Fruit can create life, but it requires the consumption of souls. These souls can be consumed by the user or stolen from others.

The strength of a creature's transformation is closely related to the amount of soul used; it can imbue any object, even some elements of nature, with life.

To seize another's soul power and lifespan, but you must make the other person feel fear and dread.

However, if the other party is willing to voluntarily hand over their soul, then Rhodes can also extract the soul energy. But if the target dies, there is no way to seize the soul energy.

However, he possesses the warlock skill, which allows him to collect soul fragments after an enemy dies, making this drawback negligible for Rhodes.

When creating things using one's own soul, the soul power consumed can be recovered by one's own soul power.

It can also create soul avatars, consuming one's own lifespan and soul, to temporarily enhance one's strength in all aspects.

In addition, the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit also granted Rhodes the power to control souls, giving him a stronger binding force on things like demon contracts, or soul contracts.

I have gained a deeper understanding of the subtle workings of the soul.

Even now, the Burning Legion's high command, unless they are at Sargeras's level, has absolutely no way to break the demon enslavement contract established by Rhodes.

After gaining a basic understanding of the Soul-Soul Fruit's power, Rhodes conducted an experiment using the soul of a certain dreadlord.

In the world of One Piece, there is no way to capture a complete soul, but in the world of Azeroth, there was the soul of a certain dreadlord, which was captured by himself and Retson.

For an ordinary life form to be extracted by Rhodes, the other party must either be afraid or willing. However, if it is a pure soul, then there is no such problem at all.

However, Rhodes first used fel magic to torment the other party's soul before starting the soul extraction, and the effect was surprisingly good.

The souls of the Dreadlords are extremely powerful, and these guys don't have any lifespan limit. As long as they aren't killed outright, they can be recycled after they recover.

"Ah! Ah! Stop, stop now!" Varimathras's soul cried out in anguish.

His soul power is being slowly taken away by Rhodes. Why does this guy have abilities that target the soul?

There shouldn't be anyone in this world who controls this power that originally came from the Shadow Realm!

Even the Lich King they created using the Warden's abilities could only manipulate souls, not seize their power!

"Hahaha! Looks like I need to capture more Dreadlords! The soul energy of your race is the most perfect." Rhodes said with a smile.

The Dark Portal has been opened, and soon a large number of dreadlords, or other demons, will appear. These are all high-grade souls!

Although he has the Soul-Soul Fruit, which allows him to replenish his soul energy anytime, anywhere, Rhode still doesn't plan to sign soul contracts indiscriminately. Only the strong are qualified to be enslaved by him.

"What, what exactly are you?" Varimathras asked Rhodes in utter terror.

In the world of Azeroth, someone has actually mastered this power; it's unknown whether it will affect the master's plans.

Rhodes smiled, did not answer the Dreadlord's question, and extracted one-third of the Dreadlord's soul.

Rhodes stopped, locked the listless Dreadlord up again, and then walked out of the cell with satisfaction.

We need to follow a path of sustainable development, and in the future, we should capture more Fear Demons and extract their souls from time to time.

"Lord Rhodes! My mother is here! She says she's here to be at your beck and call as agreed." Pudding skipped over to Rhodes and said with a grin.

Lord Rhodes had taken advantage of her that night, and the next day, while she was fast asleep, her mother was released.

And since she joined the adults' ranks, it must have been her own doing that saved her mother's life.

"Hmm! You've met her?" Rod asked.

"Yes! Mom has become younger. Although she lost her Devil Fruit powers, she gained demonic power and can transform into a demon. My two older brothers have also come," Pudding said.

"Tell her to go and learn rage from Kaido or the Beast Pirates, and your two brothers too! She won't be able to help me if she doesn't learn these things," Rhodes said.

To be honest, Charlotte Linlin's training potential is even greater than Kaido's. Rhode is also quite looking forward to seeing how far Big Mom will grow in the future.

"Hmm! Lord Rhodes, actually I have a few older sisters who are quite pretty too. Would you like me to introduce them to you?" Pudding said.

After spending some time together, she figured out some of Rhodes's quirks. This man was very lecherous, and he even kept a succubus maid in his room, who would occasionally serve him.

She wanted to bring more of her older sisters over so they could unite and stick together.

"Forget about your sisters! I'm not that interested in them," Rod said.

"Smoothie, she has the kind of long legs you like best! Garette has a great figure too, and her power is butter!"

"I also have a sister who's a mermaid!" Pudding said with a wicked smile.

Asking my sisters to go to sea is a really fun thing.

"We'll talk about that later," Rod said.

Her legs are long, but her height of five meters is a stretch! Galette is alright looking, and her butter-making ability is a plus.

Among the older woman's children, too many have grown up to be unattractive; your mermaid sister is over eight meters tall.

If I want mermaids or something, why don't I just go to Mermaid Island to find them?

"I have important things to do right now!" Rhodes immediately declined Pudding's suggestion.

After mastering the Soul-Soul Fruit, Rhode gained the power to manipulate souls. So Rhode wanted to try capturing a werewolf druid from the Emerald Dream and see if he could restore the other's sanity.

Restoring someone's sanity by working on their soul level is something no one in the world of Azeroth has ever experimented with before. If successful, the entire Beast Pirates would be werewolves.

Furthermore, if they are injected with the Extremis Virus in the future, they will become even more powerful, with everyone being a Mythical Zoan type, a fire-evil werewolf!

Back in his room, Rhodes sat cross-legged on the bed, activated the Emerald Dream Mark, and entered the Emerald Dream.
