A sharp cramp in her abdomen instantly extinguished the soaring pride that had just ignited in Mina’s heart.
The ups and downs—mostly downs—of life were truly too intense.
In the next second, Mina’s hundred-meter-tall body moved in an awkward posture, quickly traversing through the mess she had just created in her rampage.
Her current body was simply too massive; every move she made was extremely conspicuous.
Relieving herself here would be no different from a public performance.
Although she seemed to be the only living person on the island, such a thing was, after all, a bit shameful.
Especially for someone whose soul was still that of a manly man.
Passing through the devastated area, she found a region where the trees were relatively intact.
The trees here were hundreds of meters tall, their massive canopies blotting out the sky and casting a dense shadow that provided a slight sense of hidden security.
Mina looked around, confirming there were no living creatures nearby, then leaned her back against a giant tree and slowly squatted down.
She pulled down her purple pants, which had already become super shorts for her, got into position, and let out a long sigh of relief.
The next second.
“Boom, boom, boom—!” A massive roar, like a mountain waterfall, suddenly exploded in the silent forest.
Mina fell silent, staring blankly at the spectacular sight before her.
A line of poetry involuntarily surfaced in her mind.
The waters of the Yellow River come from the heavens, rushing to the sea, never to return.
This scale, this momentum, this volume of water…
Her heart tightened as she instantly felt the extreme embarrassment of what could be called’social death’ flood her soul.
This was too humiliating!
Finally, when the torrential flood showed signs of stopping, Mina pulled up her pants as fast as she could and stood up, fleeing the scene.
Looking down, a wide riverbed had already been washed out on the land, and where the water flowed, bursts of white steam billowed up.
Seeing this, Mina couldn’t help but shudder and quickly walked away without looking back.
Too shameful—!
She had just vented her internal reserves, and before long, another even stronger need surged up—hunger.
Thundering sounds came from her stomach, as if a monster was waking up inside.
The excitement of her sudden power surge had previously masked her physical fatigue and energy consumption.
Now that she had relaxed, she felt an intense hunger that made her feel like she could swallow a whole cow.
A thought popped into her mind: she had to find something to eat.
As Mina walked, she used her newly mastered Observation Haki to scan the entire island.
Quickly, among the creatures that had been knocked unconscious by her Haoshoku earlier, she found a suitable target.
It was a giant wild boar, thirty meters long, with protruding tusks and covered in black bristles.
It looked extremely fierce.
But at the moment, it was lying on its back, foaming at the mouth, completely unconscious.
To an ordinary person, this was a behemoth that would require a whole company to hunt, but in the eyes of the hundred-meter-tall Mina, this thing was no different from a suckling pig waiting to be slaughtered in a market from her past life.
“You’ll do!” Mina grinned and strode over.
Like picking up a chick, she grabbed one of the boar’s hind legs with one hand and lifted it up.
Dragging this ‘little suckling pig’ to an open riverbank, Mina began to skillfully process the ingredients.
Starting a fire?
That was simple.
She extended her index finger and flicked it.
A cluster of gold-red flames jumped out, landing on the pile of dried wood she had prepared.
With a ‘whoosh,’ a massive bonfire blazed up, sending out waves of heat.
Next was skewering it.
She casually snapped a tree dozens of meters tall, stripped the branches, and a giant ‘barbecue skewer’ was ready.
She skewered the entire wild boar on the tree trunk and began roasting it over the fire.
Before long, the rich aroma of meat, mixed with the’sizzling’ sound of dripping fat, permeated the air.
Mina tore off a golden, crispy roasted hind leg and, without even worrying about the heat, stuffed it directly into her mouth to feast.
“Mmm, tastes great!
Purely natural and pollution-free!” The meat was firm and springy, full of wild flavor, much more delicious than any pork she had eaten in her previous life.
But after finishing one hind leg, it barely even padded her stomach.
Mina simply stopped tearing it apart and picked up the entire roasted pig, devouring it like a chicken drumstick.
In no time, she had eaten it clean, even chewing up and swallowing the bones.
*Burp—* Letting out a long burp, Mina rubbed her still-flat abdomen.
“Only half full…
It seems the appetite of the Giant Race is indeed no joke.” Having eaten and drunk her fill, she felt her body becoming sticky and uncomfortable all over.
For someone who had loved bathing excessively in her previous life, this was unbearable.
Her gaze turned toward the vast, boundless azure sea, and a thought uncontrollably popped up.
Go take a bath!
No sooner said than done.
Mina stood up, took a step with her long legs, and walked toward the seaside.
Standing on the edge of a cliff, she looked down at the deep blue seawater, took a deep breath, and leaped.
“Splash—!!!” Like an asteroid hitting the Earth, her hundred-meter-tall body crashed into the sea, instantly kicking up a massive wave that slammed into the shore like a tsunami, flooding large swathes of the forest.
The cool seawater enveloped her entire body, taking away the heat and stickiness.
It felt so good that Mina almost groaned aloud.
She began to dive into the water hundreds of meters deep.
The light around her became dim and soft, with only sunlight filtering through the surface, casting swaying pillars of light.
Under the buoyancy of the water, her massive body also became light.
Mina stretched her body comfortably in the water like a true mermaid.
It was time to get down to business.
Somewhat clumsily, she took off the set of Purple-gold attire that had turned into tight-fitting clothes underwater.
When the last bit of restraint was removed and she felt the seawater gently caressing every inch of her skin, an unprecedented sense of freedom arose.
Mina reached out and curiously began to rub her own body.
Her skin was fair and delicate, smooth to the touch, and seemed supple enough to break at a touch.
But when her nails applied a bit of force to scratch it, it produced a sound like clanging metal, unable to leave even a white mark.
Fair and tender, yet incredibly hard.
These contradictory traits were perfectly integrated into this body.
Even more miraculous was that after staying underwater for so long, she didn’t feel the slightest bit of suffocation.
Her breathing remained smooth and natural, as if she were born to be here.
“It seems it’s true that the Lunarian Race can survive in any environment…” After taking a wonderful bath in the deep sea and cleaning every corner of her body, Mina felt completely refreshed, with a sense of ease permeating from her body to her soul.
After putting on her clothes, she swam out of the water full of joy.
The next moment, as she emerged from the sea, the water from the torrent fell like a massive waterfall, while simultaneously creating a ten-meter-high splash on the sea surface.
She didn’t care at all, turning her gaze toward the thousand-meter-tall tree in the center of the island that pierced the clouds.
“I’ll go up there and see the scenery.” A short while later, she reached the base of the giant tree and took a rough look.
The diameter of this tree was probably over a hundred meters.
The bark was rough and had many large patterns, which were undoubtedly excellent climbing points for Mina.
Without relying on any abilities, she used only her physical strength, using both hands and feet to climb up the massive trunk.
Her movements were swift and agile; her hundred-meter body seemed to have no weight on her at all.
In less than a minute, she had climbed hundreds of meters high and reached a wide, massive branch.
This branch was wider and flatter than a highway from her past life.
Mina lay down directly on it, resting her hands behind her head and crossing her legs.
Through the layers of the canopy, she could see the azure sky and floating white clouds.
The sea breeze blew by, carrying a salty scent.
The leaves rustled, and the sound of distant waves reached her ears.
The troubles of her past life, the shock of transmigrating, and the depression of being gender-swapped all seemed to drift away with the wind at this moment.
All that remained was the anticipation for the future and the pride of possessing power.
“This world seems quite interesting.” A confident smile curled at the corners of Mina’s mouth.
“However, having power alone isn’t enough.
I must master it properly.” “Starting tomorrow, I’ll begin Garp-style training.”
