One Piece: King of the World from White Town

Chapter 497: Nightmare Battleship!

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, another eight months have passed.

In June of the Haiyuan calendar year 1510.

Our world's number one shipbuilder, Mr. Tom, has finally completed his work!

It took more than a year, almost two years, to successfully build the super battleship that Abel had always dreamed of - Nightmare!

That's right, Abel had already thought of the name when he saw it for the first time.

It will be everyone's nightmare!

The ship is 155 meters long and 74 meters wide, with a black base and a silver light-absorbing coating, creating a unique hull that is unparalleled and full of technological sense.

The keel and the main body of the ship were made by Treasure Tree Adam, while the cabin and deck on the outside were expanded from the wood of the zombie tree. It has super memory and blood-sucking properties and has extremely strong defense.

After testing, it was found that ordinary shells falling on the deck would at most leave a black mark that could be wiped off.

After enormous calculations, an extra layer of Tecula alloy was added to many parts of the bottom and hull of the ship to maximize the anti-gravity effect, thus ensuring that the battleship's top speed is not inferior to most other ships.

The bow of the ship is inlaid with a huge octopus head statue.

[Figurehead - Davy Jones] (Orange)

Equipment Items

Description: After his death, Davy Jones was made into a figurehead by the goddess Calypso.

Effect: Equipped on the bow, it will gain two hull skills. (Once equipped, it is permanently bound and cannot be disassembled again)

1. Ghost: The entire ship enters a ghost state, immune to all physical attacks. Duration: 30 minutes. Cooldown: 7 days.

2. Summon Sea Monster: Davy Jones blows the whistle to summon a giant deep-sea octopus from another world to fight for you. Duration: 30 minutes. Cooldown: 30 days.

……

Below the figurehead is a relief of a six-armed Great Dark Sky Demon God, chained with chains.

When the chains are unlocked, the six-armed Dark Sky Demon will open his arms, revealing the main gun inside - the death ray crusher cannon.

[The Evil Emperor's Weapon: Death Light Crusher] (Orange)

Special equipment items

Description: Made from various legendary super-dangerous materials.

Effect: Need to be installed in advance. After installation, it can release super death ray to devastate the target, with a range of ten kilometers. Automatic charging time: 7 days. (When uninstalling, it will automatically discharge the charged energy to avoid causing improper explosion)

Overload effect: Forced into super overload state, burst out the strongest attack. After use, it will enter a 60-day cooldown period, during which it cannot be charged and cannot be used.

……

Because this weapon is so powerful, Tom also designed some other things.

For example, when firing, the anti-gravity effect in a certain area can be turned off, allowing the ship to draft deeper to resist the terrible recoil.

When acceleration is needed, the anti-gravity effects in all areas can be turned on to reduce the weight of the ship and increase speed.

Abel's nightmare battleship is even nearly ten meters longer than the Moby Dick of the Whitebeard Pirates.

It can also easily carry hundreds of artillery pieces, thousands of crew members, and a large amount of supplies.

Of course, there is only one main gun on the entire ship.

So strictly speaking, this nightmare battleship has not been completely completed.

Abel specifically assigned it to Jiazhi to complete the installation of the final firepower system and control system.

Although Tom's shipbuilding skills are the best in the world, the other party really can't handle high-tech things.

What Abel needs is simpler and more convenient operation, and powerful firepower that can rival or even surpass "Pluto"!

This is not within Tom's area of ​​expertise.

"How is it? This should be the most perfect work I can create in my life."

Tom said with a complicated and proud look.

Abel nodded. "That's what I want. It's a 'work of art'. But I won't put it on a shelf and let people admire it as a vase. It will be the nightmare of all enemies until they die!"

"To be honest, until now, I don't know whether handing it over to you is the right thing to do."

Tom suddenly looked at Abel very seriously and said.

"You give me the impression that you are usually very calm and somewhat free-spirited, but hidden beneath this calm face is danger, madness, and destruction. So when I was building this battleship, I was unconsciously affected by your emotions, and ultimately created this nightmare battleship."

"My instinct tells me that if I give it to you, you will become the nightmare of the whole world."

"And the last person who gave me a similar premonition was called Gol D. Roger."

In the end, Roger became the Pirate King, and the Age of Discovery began...

So what kind of storm will this man in front of us create on this ocean?

"I hope I won't be executed again by the World Government for the same reason."

Finally, Tom expressed his true feelings in a joking tone.

"Don't worry, those high-handed guys will never have such an opportunity again."

Abel looked at the super battleship in front of him, which had cost him almost half of his fortune and had finally been completed after such a long wait. He seemed so proud and excited!

"So how are you going to drive it away?"

"Drive it away? No, it's not time for it to bare its fangs to this sea yet."

Abel said as he pulled out something that looked like a stray bottle.

【Voodoo Bottle】(Orange)

Equipment Items

Description: A magical glass bottle with divine power.

Effect: A ship can be put into the bottle, and only the weight of the original bottle remains. (It cannot hold living things, but can hold inanimate magical items. Both collection and release take 1 minute.)

……

He opened the cork, pointed the bottle mouth at the nightmare battleship in front of him, and began to absorb.

One minute later.

The nightmare battleship appeared intact in the bottle, and every detail inside could be seen through the glass.

"This has really become a 'work of art'."

Tom's tone was complicated, as if he remembered what Abel had said before.

He thought it was just a metaphor, but he didn't expect it might be realistic.

Abel generously spent 10 trading points and put the [Voodoo Bottle] containing the Nightmare Battleship back into the system package.

Because there is a ship inside, you need to pay an additional handling fee.

If he accidentally loses this thing, he will explode on the spot!

"The deal between us is done. Where are you going next? Back to the Seven Waters? I can give you a ride."

Abel, in a good mood, looked at Tom, who was already a little bald, before leaving.

"Seven Water City... Forget it. If I go back now, it will only cause trouble for them. Next, I plan to go around alone."

"Okay, you can come to me if you have any trouble."

Abel asked Tom to keep the Den Den Mushi he had given him before, and prepared some money and a boat for Tom.

Chapter 498 Red Quality Treasure Map

During the process of returning from the North Sea to the first half of the Grand Line, Abel was full of pride and high spirits.

During these eight months, not only did his strength improve further.

The biggest gain is the nightmare battleship that I just acquired!

It’s a pity that it is not yet complete, and it will take some time before it can officially set sail.

But Abel knew that day was not far away.

First of all, the three skills of [Magic Card Transformation], [Clothes Explosion] and [Infinite Sword Slash] are all upgraded to LV7!

【Dragon Fist】was upgraded twice to LV6 because he bought two 【Intermediate Skill Upgrade Cards】!

Although [Ashura Aurora Slash] is still at LV8 level, Abel has a feeling that it will be upgraded to LV9 very soon, probably in the next two months.

The degree of skill improvement is quite good, and the other aspects are not left behind either.

Armament Haki has completely mastered the two techniques of 'hardening' and 'entanglement'.

While defending and increasing attack power, you can also attach domineering aura to the flying bullets.

The next stage is 'externalization'.

Gathering the Armament Haki in your hands or weapons and releasing it directly transforms it into substantial attack or defense power. It can send a powerful impact to send enemies flying, or it can form a protective wall, or even defend against invisible attacks.

This technique is also called 'Ryu-Sakura' in Wano Country!

Since no one taught him this advanced technique, Abel had a hard time exploring on his own and he hasn't gotten started yet.

As for the more advanced "internal destruction", it is not something Abel can master at this stage.

After all, you have to take one step at a time and eat one bite at a time.

The progress of Observation Haki is also very gratifying.

In particular, he has found a way to integrate the 'Transparent World' with Observation Haki, and is making good progress.

The current result is that when these two abilities are used at the same time, his perception ability will be accelerated to the maximum, not only slowing down the movement of surrounding objects by many times, but also destroying the perception ability of others to a certain extent.

The principle is to make a lot of deceptive moves within the "bullet time" so that the opponent cannot distinguish the reality and naturally cannot complete the prediction.

In other words, the time left for the other party is no longer enough for the body to complete the correct reaction.

This method is not very effective against enemies who fight on instinct.

But it can be said to be a fatal move against masters of Observation Haki!

You think I'm going to hit you in the head? I'm actually going to kick you in the stomach!

You think I'm going to kick you in the stomach? I'm actually going to slap you on the butt!

You think I'm going to slap you? I'm actually going to spit on you!

Do you think these are all the actions you predicted?

No, I have stabbed you in the heart!

Want to hide?

It's too late.

After talking about Armament Haki and Observation Haki, we naturally cannot leave out Conqueror Haki.

As for the process of integrating Long Wei into Conqueror's Haki, it was smooth but also bumpy.

Because Abel discovered that after turning into a dragon, as long as he released the dragon might and the domineering aura at the same time, he would naturally and perfectly merge the two auras together, directly scaring dozens of huge beasts to death and startling the birds on the entire island!

The difficult part is when it comes to human form, I always fail to get the point.

It can be integrated, but only a little bit.

It is totally unable to achieve the same deterrent power as in dragon form.

Another one is the practice of the domineering aura entangled, or simply called the domineering aura entangled.

This technique was much more difficult than Abel had imagined, and there was no good teacher to teach him.

After all, to be honest, none of the members of Don Quixote's family were qualified to teach him anything.

Especially the practice of domineering.
