Unnamed Island.
Ever since Jellal defeated the Giant Lion Hyena Beast last time, he had been tempering his physical body every day.
His method was to let the fierce beasts on the island attack him while he only used his physical strength to resist; he didn’t counterattack the beasts, only performing simple parries.
These fierce beasts also knew that their former king had been defeated by Jellal, so they could only do as he said.
They once wondered if something was wrong with Jellal’s head, actually asking them to attack without resisting.
So during these days, the fierce beasts also got a taste of the thrill of besieging their new “Beast King.”
Jellal naturally knew what these beasts were thinking; although they were wild animals, the beasts of this world were different from those on Earth.
They all possessed a certain level of intelligence, and their expressions and movements were remarkably vivid.
Through the tempering of the fierce beasts over these days, Jellal’s physical body improved linearly and became exceptionally powerful.
Clang!!
As Jellal’s fist collided with a lion’s raised claw,
Jellal was incredibly excited—he had finally manifested Armament Haki!
The lion’s painful howl echoed through the forest; because Jellal had suddenly awakened Armament Haki, a large bump swelled up on its front paw from the impact!
Finally, it whimpered and crouched before Jellal, thinking he was no longer providing “benefits” and was starting to fight back.
The other fierce beasts naturally did the same as the lion, crouching on the ground and looking at Jellal in terror.
After all, during this period, they had beaten their “Beast King” quite mercilessly!
“Hahahaha!”
Jellal laughed wildly, inadvertently releasing a trace of Conqueror’s Haki.
Looking at his fist and savoring the power from just now, he had finally awakened after being beaten for so long!
The several fierce beasts nearby looked at Jellal in horror, eventually burying their heads even lower.
“Alright, you can go!
And you call yourselves fierce beasts—you’re so cowardly.”
Jellal naturally sensed the fear of these beasts and subsequently let them leave.
The fierce beasts looked puzzled; they didn’t dare move, fearing Jellal was tricking them.
“Go, go!
Otherwise, I’ll roast and eat you!” After speaking, Jellal’s stomach let out a loud rumble.
The fierce beasts were instantly startled by the sound! The source of this chapter is g.com.
They quickly whimpered a few times and scrambled away from Jellal.
After all, they had seen this thin human eat a small Sea King in one meal!
Jellal smiled as he watched the beasts flee, shook his head, turned to pick up the snow drinker sword, and walked toward the seaside, killing a giant deer along the way.
Dragging the giant deer back to the camp on the shore, Jellal immediately started a campfire, skillfully prepared the venison, and set it on the fire to roast.
Sitting by the campfire, Jellal raised his left hand and closed his eyes, recalling the feeling of using Armament Haki just now.
Cling!
The moment he opened his eyes, Armament Haki instantly covered his fist.
Jellal was very satisfied with this; the next step was to increase the quantity of his Haki.
Whether one’s Haki is sufficient determines the duration of a battle in the future.
For this sea, whether or not one masters Haki is the most obvious dividing line between the strong and the weak.
Armament Haki can greatly increase the user’s defensive and destructive power.
Furthermore, it provides the Haki user with the only means, besides Sea Stone, to combat Logia-type Devil Fruits and all special Devil Fruit abilities.
To become the strongest among the strong, one needs to improve the volume and hardness of their Haki, which also determines whether they can gain the upper hand in combat.
Jellal pondered; now, because of Golden Lion Shiki’s human experimentation, his body had coincidentally gained an Evolutionary Constitution.
Jellal could clearly feel his body strengthening rapidly, which gave him the confidence to use two Devil Fruits in battle.
The activation and application of all Devil Fruit abilities consume the user’s physical stamina.
This is also an iron law of this sea.
Now that Jellal possessed an Evolutionary Constitution, he wouldn’t have to worry about stamina issues when using two top-tier Devil Fruit abilities in the future.
The venison sizzled and dripped oil under the roasting fire, and the aroma roused the pensive Jellal.
“Forget it, I’ll fill my stomach first.”
Smelling the scent of the venison, Jellal’s stomach growled again.
He stood up, tore off a deer leg, and immediately began to feast.
At the edge of the forest, the several giant beasts that had just fought Jellal were quietly lying on the ground, watching Jellal curiously, as if waiting for something.
Jellal naturally noticed them; in the previous days, he had required these giant beasts to accompany him in cultivation until late at night every day.
At this moment, that giant lion walked out and nervously approached Jellal’s side.
This left Jellal somewhat puzzled; in the past few days, he hadn’t seen these beasts dare to come looking for him.
It whimpered a few times and raised its paw, gesturing toward the forest.
“Are you saying you want me to follow you?” Jellal guessed uncertainly. This chapter is updated first at g.com.
The giant lion quickly nodded its head.
Jellal didn’t know what this fellow was planning, or if it had discovered something.
“Wait until I’m full, then I’ll go with you.” After saying this, Jellal ignored the giant lion and resumed gnawing on his deer leg.
The giant lion did not leave either, waiting quietly beside Jellal.
However, as it watched Jellal feasting on the delicious venison, drool kept flowing from its mouth.
After Jellal finished the four deer legs, he threw the remaining parts directly to the giant lion.
The giant lion excitedly opened its large mouth, caught the venison Jellal threw in one bite, and swallowed it instantly.
This made the giant beasts at the forest’s edge so envious they wanted to rush over and snatch it.
Truthfully, during this time, the smell of Jellal’s daily roasted meat always drifted into the forest; they couldn’t eat it and could only smell the aroma while gnawing on their own prey.
“Let’s go, let’s see what you’ve found.” Jellal stood up, took the snow drinker sword, and walked toward the forest.
The giant lion also followed quickly and led the way for Jellal.
Seeing Jellal move, the other fierce beasts began to get excited again, thinking that training was about to start.
When they struck their poses, they saw Jellal walk past them with an expressionless face.
This left them dumbfounded—why wasn’t the training continuing?
The giant lion gave a low growl and then quickly followed Jellal.
Only then did the fierce beasts understand that Jellal wasn’t continuing the training, but was following their’Second Brother’ to find something.
As for their ‘Big Brother,’ it was naturally Jellal—well, that was what they had decided on their own.
After catching up with Jellal, the giant lion leaped past him to lead the way, and they soon arrived before a towering peak.
The giant lion whimpered at Jellal again, indicating the item was on the mountain, and then leaped up to run quickly up the slope.
Jellal followed quickly, and eventually, they stopped beneath a towering tree.
Roar!
The giant lion let out a low roar and raised its paw to point up at the tree.
Jellal followed the direction the giant lion was pointing and finally saw what it was.
It was actually a Devil Fruit!
