“Wood Release Fruit?
Hahaha, there’s actually something like this?
Then don’t mind if I do!” Sylvan was overjoyed and grabbed the Devil Fruit impatiently.
Gulp.
He dug out a piece of fruit flesh and swallowed it without hesitation.
As expected, it tasted just as awful as the rumors said Devil Fruits did.
The instant it went down, he wanted to puke it back out.
“The system has awakened.
From now on, your body will return to normal,” the Plunder System said in his mind.
“I forgot to tell you what this system does.
As long as you obtain treasures for exchange, such as Devil Fruits, Ancient Weapons, famous blades, and the like, you can sell them for points.
Points can then be used to purchase the things you need, such as the Senzu Bean from earlier, or even certain abilities.
Everything is available.” “Seriously?
Aren’t you called the Plunder System?
Why does your ability basically make me rob other people?
You might as well change your name to the Robbery System.” Sylvan vomited while mocking the Plunder System.
“Heh heh, of course there’s a reason I’m called the Plunder System.” The system’s voice suddenly turned sinister as it explained, “This system has a unique Plunder Mode.
It costs 10,000 points to purchase and lasts for roughly one day.
During that period, any enemy you kill will allow you to obtain all of their abilities.” “Really?!” Hearing that, Sylvan grew wildly excited.
He had never expected there to be such a heaven-defying ability.
He said excitedly, “Plunder Mode?
So if I kill five or six Devil Fruit users, I can take all of their abilities?” “Of course,” the system answered frankly, its voice full of smugness.
“Looks like I really picked up a treasure this time.” After hearing how monstrous the Plunder System was, all the dissatisfaction in Sylvan’s heart finally eased.
“I absolutely can’t stay here.” His body had returned to normal, and he had also obtained the ability of the Wood Release Fruit.
Sylvan’s eyes began to shine.
After casually chatting with the Plunder System for a little longer, Sylvan returned to the real world.
“Hey, old man.” Sylvan walked to the bars and said to the Golden Lion, “I’ve thought it through.
Teach me all the techniques you know.” Ever since Sylvan had been locked up here, the Golden Lion had been constantly selling him on how powerful he was, wanting to pass all his lifetime’s ultimate techniques to Sylvan.
In truth, Sylvan understood perfectly well that this old bastard simply wanted to use him to escape prison.
Most of the pirates in Impel Down were shackled with Seastone chains.
The Golden Lion was a living example.
If he wanted to break out, he would have to cut off both his legs.
The price was too steep.
Unless he was truly forced into a corner, even the Golden Lion was somewhat reluctant to do it.
But after Sylvan was imprisoned here, the Golden Lion saw hope.
This kid had a weak body, no Devil Fruit ability, and zero combat power.
The Marines had naturally lowered their guard against him.
Seastone handcuffs and such were completely unnecessary.
He was only locked inside a cell and could move around quite freely.
“What do you want to learn?
Haki or swordsmanship?” The Golden Lion’s old face flushed red.
He was incomparably excited.
This kid had finally come around.
“Haki,” Sylvan said after pondering for a while.
There was no chance of learning swordsmanship here.
There wasn’t even a wooden stick, let alone a sword.
As for his Devil Fruit ability, that secret could not be exposed yet.
In fact, as long as Sylvan wanted to, he could instantly escape this cell.
After all, he had obtained the Wood Release Fruit.
The key problem was the guards outside.
They were still not something the current Sylvan could handle.
“Fine.
First, I’ll teach you Armament Haki and Observation Haki.
As for Conqueror’s Haki… that’s still far too distant for you.” It wasn’t that the Golden Lion looked down on Sylvan.
It was simply too early to talk about Conqueror’s Haki.
He also did not think Sylvan had the bearing of a “king.” “First, let me explain Observation Haki.
To put it simply, it is the power of listening.
Everything has a voice.
As long as a person is alive, their body can emit a special sound.
Through this, you can predict your opponent’s movements.
I’ve already thought of a training method for you.
As long as…” For the next half hour, the Golden Lion clearly explained to Sylvan the methods for training Observation Haki and Armament Haki.
However, the more Sylvan listened, the tighter his brows furrowed.
Right now, he was inside a prison.
How could training possibly be easy?
“Right!” A flash of inspiration crossed his mind.
Sylvan communicated inwardly, “System, you said earlier that anything valuable can be exchanged for points, right?” “Correct,” the system quickly replied.
“Then help me exchange the Senzu Bean.
As for that Hoi-Poi Capsule, forget it.
That’s an important trump card for leaving Impel Down.” Sylvan’s eyes shone brightly.
At this point, he could only take a gamble.
“Are you sure?” The system’s voice hesitated, as if extremely surprised.
“Absolutely, definitely, and completely sure.” Sylvan nodded solemnly.
What was contained inside the Hoi-Poi Capsule was a rocket.
It sounded shocking, but it really was a rocket.
At first, Sylvan had not thought it would be useful.
After all, this was a world where the strong reigned supreme.
Could an ordinary rocket blast an Admiral to death?
Obviously not.
But after thinking about it carefully, wasn’t this rocket the perfect tool to escape Impel Down?
“Exchange complete.
Host has obtained 1,000 points,” the Plunder System said after a while.
“As long as it can be exchanged, that’s good.” A faint smile lifted Sylvan’s face, and his eyes gleamed brightly.
“1,000 points, right?
I want to exchange for the Hyperbolic Time Chamber from Dragon Ball!” This was also the only shortcut Sylvan could currently think of to train his strength, and it was the fastest one.
One year passed inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, while only one day passed in the outside world.
“Unable to exchange.
1,000 points is only enough to use the Time Chamber for two years.
In the world of One Piece, that would be equivalent to two days passing,” the Plunder System said.
“One day in the world of One Piece equals one year in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.” “Damn, that’s such a rip-off.
What’s the difference between this and robbery?
The Robbery System really does suit you better… But exchange it anyway.
Two years should be more or less enough.” Sylvan nearly cursed out loud.
After complaining for a bit, he thought about it and let it go.
Buying an entire Hyperbolic Time Chamber for just 1,000 points would indeed be far too cheap.
