At this moment, all opposing voices across the entire island vanished instantly, and the violent explosion at the port fully demonstrated the power of that man.
The flashing thunder in the sky hung above their heads like a sword of judgment.
Everyone on the island knew that what the voice coming from the sky said was true; that man possessed terrifying strength sufficient to destroy the entire island.
The warring kingdoms immediately stopped fighting, and no one bothered to entangle themselves in the current battle anymore.
Everyone single-mindedly went to search for the strange fruit mentioned by the ‘King’ who issued the command.
Large numbers of troops spread out across the island for a carpet search; the bushes in the forest, the caves at the foot of the mountains, and even rat nests hidden in the soil layers were dug out one by one.
As for the soldiers around Charlotte Rector, sixty percent had already collapsed on the ground and fainted, while the remaining forty percent froze in place, completely scared out of their wits.
A faint burnt smell still drifted in the air, and the gravel at their feet carried the lingering warmth of the lightning sweep.
They watched with their own eyes as dazzling lightning erupted from the body of this person who looked quite young.
In the next second, a roaring thunder dragon in the direction of the port destroyed it, and the deafening commotion filled their hearts with despair.
The shockwave swept up smoke and dust, rushing over along the coastline.
Only then did they realize that the voice that had just resounded through the sky was emitted by the person right in front of them—this guy was the ‘King’ who had issued the command.
‘You guys go accompany them as well.’
Several slender bolts of lightning shot out from Charlotte Rector’s fingertips, rapidly shuttling through the crowd like sharp flying blades and continuously harvesting lives.
He hated it most when others interrupted him while he was speaking.
Until all life aura around them completely vanished, Charlotte Rector turned sideways to sit on a flat stone beside him, looking down at Douglas Bullet in his arms.
The wind whipped up the salty and humid air from the seaside as it blew over.
Douglas Bullet was wrapped in swaddling clothes, staring at him with big, round eyes.
If Mother Carmel was really hidden inside Charlotte Linlin, what could be done to strip Mother Carmel out of her body without harming Linlin?
Stripping?
Fusion?
That is right!
Can the Munch-Munch Fruit not allow people to fuse?
Since they can fuse, they can certainly be stripped apart!
As long as his Haki strength exceeded Charlotte Linlin’s, he could suppress her Haki and successfully strip Mother Carmel’s soul out of Charlotte Linlin’s body.
Now he had to first resolve the issue of the younger brothers and sisters who were about to be born afterwards; after all, childbirth was extremely harmful to the body to begin with.
Only Charlotte Linlin could endure it by relying on her iron-balloon physique.
If it were an ordinary woman, at her birth frequency, her body would have collapsed halfway through, let alone the fact that she went to war while pregnant.
The Munch-Munch Fruit and Chopper’s commoner fruit were also on Drum Island.
Being able to disperse the Devil Fruit dominated by darkness with a single slap, it was definitely a top-tier Devil Fruit.
Drum Island was covered in thick snow year-round, and the current king was Wapol’s father.
He had a generous temperament and had always vigorously supported the development of medical care, wanting to build Drum Island into a ‘Medical Kingdom’.
However, Drum Island was barren, and food could not be grown on the frozen soil.
All living supplies had to be purchased externally, and perhaps he could reach a cooperation with them.
Right now, Drum Island’s medical skills were not yet famous; it would not be until around the time of the death of Walle that Drum Island would truly become a world-renowned medical kingdom.
Compared to Drum Island’s medical resources, he preferred Vegapunk, a genius whose technological level led the world by five hundred years.
He even had ways to treat the so-called terminal disease Sapphire Scale; in front of him, there was no such thing as a terminal illness for pain and sickness.
Moreover, perfect medical technology could greatly slow down the rate of decline in strength.
The Marines had advanced medical skills and a complete medical system, and seventy-something-year-old Garp’s strength had hardly declined at all.
However, as a pirate, Whitebeard could only rely on the ship’s doctor for daily treatment, lacking systematic and complete medical conditions.
During the Marineford War, Whitebeard was gravely ill, his entire body poked full of infusion tubes, and wearing an oxygen tube, resulting in a severe drop in strength.
Vegapunk was a Brain-Brain Fruit user, and as the knowledge stored in his brain gradually increased, all sorts of strange ideas would pop out.
The android project, the Seraphim project, and the technology of implanting Devil Fruit abilities into weapons were all hypotheses proposed by Vegapunk.
Even the lineage factor was discovered under Vegapunk’s leadership.
Both his technological level and medical level were ahead of the entire world.
And these were all resources he needed right now; what he needed most at present was an infant cultivation device.
With this technology, Charlotte Linlin would not have to give birth to them one by one personally, which could preserve her strength to the maximum extent.
Right now, Vegapunk was still staying on Karakuri Island, Barcimoa.
Karakuri Island was frozen year-round, and the residents on the island had always been troubled by the severe cold.
To solve the problem of the severe cold, Vegapunk began researching a heating system covering the entire island, and the project was just at its starting stage.
Later on, due to insufficient funds, the research ultimately failed, which led to his intention to go out to sea.
And the time he went to sea was the year before the God Valley incident took place.
Such a top-tier talent in the world, he did not plan to cede to the World Government.
Vegapunk simply lacked money; he had plenty of money, and if it was not enough, he would go rob a batch of Heavenly Tribute.
‘L-Lord!
The…
things you wanted…
I have already found them!’
The shouts drifted over with the wind, and Charlotte Rector’s Observation Haki clearly captured this sentence.
He looked down at Douglas Bullet sleeping soundly in his arms.
The cheeks of the little guy were brushed by the sea breeze and turned slightly red.
It seemed he had to return to Skypiea first; he could not possibly fly around everywhere with a newborn child.
Right now, there was not even a usable person by his side, so he had to do everything himself personally.
‘Lord!
This is…
what you wanted!’
The moment Charlotte Rector landed, dust rose along with the ascending air.
A man dressed in magnificent attire held up the Fusion Fruit high, kneeling before him.
His head was buried extremely low, wishing he could shove his head into the mud.
The fruit was deep blue all over, with strange circular, triangular, and quadrilateral protrusions distributed on its surface, and its stem was wavy.
That was right, it was the Fusion Fruit.
(Fusion Fruit picture!)
Charlotte Rector took the Fusion Fruit, his figure flickered, and his entire person turned into a bolt of lightning soaring straight into the sky, leaving behind a series of crackling explosions in the air.
Until that bolt of lightning completely disappeared at the edge of the sky, the crowd on the ground dared to slowly raise their heads, the fear on their faces fading away bit by bit.
They were nobles from various kingdoms, always accustomed to comfort and luxury, and with endless wars, their national foundation was already under the jurisdiction of the World Government.
Now someone had robbed right onto their heads; this was slapping the World Government in the face, and they could not swallow this anger either.
As kings, they were ordered around by some guy who came from who knows where, and even threatened with their lives to help him search for things.
This matter had to be reported to the World Government, letting him know that offending them would be the most regretful decision of his life.
High up in the sky, Charlotte Rector stepped on lightning, speeding towards Skypiea, the lightning in front of him cutting through the airflow.
The lightning constructed a windless area near his chest, beneath his feet were surging clouds, and by his ears was only the soft sound of flowing lightning.
It did not affect Douglas Bullet’s sleep at all.
Douglas Bullet wore a reassuring smile on his face, as if completely trusting the person holding him.
Charlotte Rector looked down at the Fusion Fruit in his hand.
For powerhouses who had mastered Conqueror’s Haki Infusion, this fruit was a burden.
The huge physique constructed by the Fusion Fruit could indeed enhance attack power, but the Haki consumed would also increase exponentially.
For top-tier Haki powerhouses like Garp, a single strike could shatter such a huge body.
But for people who had only mastered two-color Haki, this Devil Fruit was a massive weapon of mass destruction on the battlefield.
With the user having sufficient stamina paired with various weapons, the Fusion Fruit would become a walking war fortress.
The characteristic of the Fusion Fruit was that weapons did not need to be installed; casually stacking them in any single place was enough.
When the user activated the Fusion Fruit’s ability, they could move weapons to any position, allowing them to carry more weapons.
The humanoid mechas with the strongest firepower in the anime of his past life required neural connections for control in their highest-end models, which could not compare to the operational smoothness of the Fusion Fruit.
With this fruit present, one could easily transform a ship into mechas of three different forms: sea, land, and air.
