The Otherworld War Madman Projection of Ten Thousand Worlds

Li Zhong originally thought that coming to the sea to clean up some small fish was just boring physical labor for him.

But I didn't expect that when I actually did it, it wouldn't be like this.

This sea is very vast, and any pirate who can make a name for himself will have one or two unique skills. As a result, Li Zhong's strength has actually increased a lot through fighting with these pirates!

Although they are not even worthy of standing in front of Li Zhong in terms of pure combat power, their various methods can enable Li Zhong to draw inferences from one instance to another, allowing him to have a deeper understanding of the extraordinary system of this world and acquire more application methods.

Just like now, after "seeing" the old swordsman's realm of listening to all things and cutting iron, and spending two seconds to learn it, Li Zhong's combat power instantly went up to a new level!

The reason why he learned so quickly was because Li Zhong's current basic conditions met everything required to reach the Iron-Cutting Realm. What he lacked was just 'knowing' the existence of this power.

It turns out that power can be used in this way.

When he realized this, he instantly entered this realm, using his hair as a sword and with a strength far greater than that of the old swordsman, he cut off his long sword Water Tiger and neck.

"George!!" Captain Leib's eyes were bloodshot when he saw that his deputy captain and best friend who had followed him for many years had passed away.

He shouted the names of his companions loudly, and looked up, but he didn't even know who to take revenge on. There were no enemies here, only undetectable black hairs.

Fortunately, he won't have to worry about this problem soon.

【String Sword·Ten Cuts】

Pfft!

The animal-type fruit ability user's large, beastly body slammed heavily onto the deck.

Captain Leib's head hit the deck and he could never get up again.

Because his limbs have left him.

The hair was loose, and Captain Leib was given a simple hemostasis by suturing.

"Devil Fruit users, this is a rare thing, we can't waste it."

Then Captain Leib felt a tug.

A strand of hair was tied tightly around his waist and he was thrown into the air.

Then he saw it.

Not only him but also nearly two hundred heads with hair tied to them were thrown into the air.

Cold and weak.

The fruit user who fell into the sea lost consciousness instantly, and he and the heads moved across the seabed.

Not long after, they arrived on the warship with the Hundred Heads flying.

The warship is going to have new decorations.

The pirate ship had its bottom pierced by a hair and was slowly sinking.

"It's still a little lacking." Li Zhong said softly while holding the unconscious Devil Fruit user Leib.

If the hair was too long, although he could still control it, it would be difficult for the Armament Haki to extend it. This resulted in his first move being blocked by the old swordsman, and his second move being cut off by a single sword.

This kind of long-range combat method is fine for clearing out small pieces, but if you encounter a strong man of the same level, the gap is too big. Even if he has comprehended the art of cutting iron, it is still not enough.

After thinking for a while, Li Zhong temporarily gave up the idea of ​​developing new fighting skills.

The most important thing now is not this. This time we finally got a devil fruit user.

He must study carefully what the power of the devil fruit is!

Chapter 271: Sober Hypnosis

What exactly is a Devil Fruit?

Different people have different answers to this question.

Some people would say that it is a secret treasure of the sea, and each one is worth at least 1 million Baileys.

Some people say that it is a ladder to become stronger, allowing the weak and those who lack talent to have the opportunity to change their destiny.

But in the eyes of scientists like Vegapunk or researchers like Li Zhong, this is a treasure trove.

Each devil fruit contains endless unknowns, which can make their understanding of the world go in a different direction.

Li Zhong used the limited conditions he had to conduct various experiments on the Devil Fruit user Leib as much as possible.

The result we obtained cannot be said to be without any gains, but it can only be said to be a meagre achievement.

Through testing, Li Zhong knew that at least the animal-type devil fruit strengthened the body of the fruit eater by rewriting human genes.

But this is just appearance.

Because if it is just about modifying the genes, Li Zhong can also do it in a roundabout way with the help of his hypnosis ability. Although he cannot achieve precise gene cutting and re-editing, if it is just about influencing it, he can still do it for now.

So he knew that no matter how he modified his genes, he still needed to abide by the law of conservation of mass and energy, a basic rule that applies to most universes.

But the devil fruit is different.

"Transform."

Li Zhong used his hypnotic ability to give orders.

The gazelle horns that had shrunk back grew out again, and Captain Leib, who had lost his limbs, turned into a beast once again.

At this moment, Captain Leib was placed on a large scale by Li Zhong. As Captain Leib transformed, the value on the scale began to change.

...Where does this extra mass come from?

Li Zhong didn't know.

But compared to the Devil Fruit, which has surpassed the law of conservation of mass and energy, he believes that the creator of the Devil Fruit has access to the depths of the world and can use rules and laws, or dimensional power, or other related technologies.

But he probably didn't have much exposure to it. It is very likely that he accidentally learned about a kind of black technology that he himself did not quite understand. Otherwise, the power of the devil fruit should be more than that. It should be able to reach the depths of the world and should not still be revolving around one planet.

Of course, perhaps they had a history of leaving the atmosphere and heading into the starry sky in the past, but Li Zhong and most people in this world didn't know it.

"It seems that the research can only go this far." Li Zhong kicked with his leg sideways, and a loud bang was heard in the air!

This is one of the results of his research this time.

By imitating the leg muscle structure of Captain Leib, which was strengthened by the Sharp-Horned Gazelle Fruit, the muscle cell structure of the whole body is optimized.

Li Zhong's physical strength is now 20% higher than before the transformation... It's better than nothing.

For a normal person, this is a big improvement, but for Li Zhong, it did not achieve his expected goal.

With Li Zhong's current research conditions, he can only study some superficial things related to devil fruits.

Since he had gained little from even the easiest animal-type Devil Fruit, Li Zhong didn't plan to waste his energy looking for a superhuman or natural-type Devil Fruit user.

If he wants to conduct more in-depth research and achieve breakthrough progress, either Li Zhong’s observation Haki must break through to a new level, or he must obtain a large laboratory fully funded by the world government.

...a large laboratory?

Li Zhong paused.

Well, it seems I can give it a try if I have the chance.

"Strange, monster..."

After finishing the experiment, Li Zhong lifted the hypnosis.

This was the first sentence Captain Leib said after regaining his "freedom".

Although Li Zhong possesses the ability of hypnosis, he actually doesn't like to interfere with other people's thoughts, so in most cases, Li Zhong's hypnosis will be the "awake" type of hypnosis.

That is, you know that I am hypnotizing you, and you also know what instructions I have given you and what I want you to do, but you cannot resist any of my instructions.

Instead of becoming a toy that has lost its self throughout the process.

In a certain world in the past, someone who had seen Li Zhong's hypnosis said to him: "Actually...it might be better if you make them lose their own will."

"They were asked to stay awake and betray their families and kill their companions. I feel like they are going crazy."

At this moment, Captain Leib was like many people who had been hypnotized by Li Zhong in the past.

It's on the verge of madness.

When Captain Leib first came to his senses, he was still in grief over the death of all his crew members, including his close friend who had followed him for many years, and was filled with hatred for Li Zhong.

But soon, as Li Zhong's experiment began, Captain Leib's hatred for Li Zhong began to turn into fear!

Although Captain Leib was a pirate, he was not illiterate. On the contrary, he had received a long period of formal education.

He was born on a wealthy island, and although the island was attacked by pirates when he was a child, due to his talent of "not being able to sleep at night", his family did not suffer from the disaster. On the contrary, they escaped because of advance preparations, and after the disaster, they bought land at a low price and made a fortune from the disaster.

Captain Leib had a good living environment since he was a child. When he grew up, he felt that this small island could not support his heart, so he went out to sea.

After many twists and turns, he became a pirate.

He is a man of insight, so he can see what Lee Jong is really doing.

This marine is actually studying the basic principles of devil fruits!

This is nothing. Many people in this world are studying it. After all, no one is a fool. Everyone hopes to crack the secret of the devil fruit and make themselves stronger.

Even Captain Leib studied his body after eating the devil fruit.

What’s really scary is that this man actually achieved some results in his research!

In Li Zhong's opinion, it was just a 20% increase in physical ability, nothing more than that. He could do the same thing by practicing for a while.

But that was not the case in Captain Leib's eyes.

Captain Leib did not know what hypnotic transformation was.

He came to the conclusion through his common sense.

This unnamed marine studied himself for several hours and did some strange experiments, then he 'copied' his own devil fruit ability!

Captain Leib is nearly fifty or forty years old, and he has never heard of such a thing!

Since he can copy his own Sharp-Horned Gazelle Fruit, can he also copy other devil fruits?!

Captain Leib didn't know.

But if he could really do it...

Just thinking about that scene made him tremble all over.

If this isn't a monster, then what is?!

Chapter 272: The Gradually Subverted Navy

Captain Leib, who was almost insane due to the severe mental shock, the experiment, and the stimulation of Li Zhong's power, was thrown into the corner. Li Zhong opened the door and walked towards the deck.

Li Zhong did not kill Captain Leib, allowing his head to be reunited with his deputy captain.

Within the navy, if a pirate who has eaten a devil fruit can be captured alive, the military merit is higher than if he is captured dead.

These Devil Fruit users will be imprisoned in the world's most secure prison, Impel Down, not far from the Navy Headquarters.

Devil fruits are unique to a certain extent. For the same ability, until the previous user dies, another fruit that can grant the eater the same ability will not appear in the sea.

Imprisoning Devil Fruit users can effectively reduce the number of Devil Fruits in the ocean.

The navy has a clear system of power training and excellent teaching staff. Even without devil fruits, they can produce many strong people.

But pirates are different, most of them are self-taught, and most of their strength is gained through fighting. Without the assistance of the Devil Fruit, the 'accelerator' that can help ordinary people break through the upper limit, the strength growth of most pirates will be much slower, or even fail to grow at all.

...Unless they happen to meet some famous teachers who are willing to teach them how to practice.

This is a way for the navy to weaken the overall strength of pirates on the sea through macro-interference.

As for whether there will be any problems such as intelligence leakage if Li Zhong does not kill Leib.

This kind of thing will not happen. Li Zhong only needs to give him another hypnosis instruction of "not leaking my information in any way".

In fact, it doesn’t matter if you don’t use hypnosis.

Because Li Zhong doesn't care whether anyone knows that he is researching devil fruits.

The Magnetic Field God of War acts openly and honestly. It's just a small matter and there is no need to hide it!

If anyone has any bad thoughts about himself because of this incident.

Isn't it enough to just kill it?

If they kill enough, they should understand why the Magnetic Field God can live a comfortable life even though he acts uprightly! !

Open the door leading to the deck.

The soft sunlight shone on Li Zhong's face, warm and relaxing.
