Chapter 276: Mary Geoise

"Since you want a Devil Fruit, how about this Tremor-Tremor Fruit?"

Uchiha Feiyu casually picked up a piece of fruit from the table and injected the soul of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit he had stored into it. A moment later, the fruit underwent a strange transformation, turning into a bizarre shape covered in peculiar patterns.

"Tremor-Tremor Fruit!! Really? Master... will you give this Devil Fruit to me?"

A look of surprise appeared on Hancock's face. For a long time, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit had been considered the most powerful Devil Fruit in the world—just as Kurozumi Orochi lowered the prestige of the Eight-Headed Serpent Fruit, Whitebeard, as the world's strongest man, had similarly elevated everyone's evaluation of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

Of course, even if the Tremor-Tremor Fruit weren't the strongest Devil Fruit, it would definitely be one of the strongest, especially against opponents with steel-like bones and powerful physical defenses; a single strike could directly cause internal injuries to the opponent.

Not to mention there are various large-scale attack moves like Tremor-Tremor and Sea Quake. If the Magma-Magma Fruit is the Devil Fruit with the highest attack power among the Logia, then the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is the Devil Fruit with the highest destructive power among all Devil Fruits!

And the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and the Love-Love Fruit are also a very compatible pair of Devil Fruits; one strike to petrify and then shake, no matter what it is, you can directly shake it into smithereens!

"Here! Take it and eat!"

Uchiha Feiyu handed the Devil Fruit directly to Hancock. Hancock took the Devil Fruit cautiously, then took a bite. A moment later, she wore an expression as if she had eaten excrement, but in the end, she swallowed the entire Devil Fruit.

Theoretically, one only needs to take one bite of a Devil Fruit to possess its ability, but there has always been a rumor on the sea that to fully develop the power of a Devil Fruit, one must eat the whole thing; otherwise, one cannot obtain the full power of the Devil Fruit.

Although Uchiha Feiyu felt that this was likely a rumor started by those who had finished eating their Devil Fruits so that those who came after would suffer the same treatment as them, he couldn't stop the fact that uneducated Pirates made up the majority of the sea, so many people believed this rumor, and clearly, Hancock believed it too.

Anyway, eating it all only meant being uncomfortable for a while, which was better than having real problems later; that was basically what most Pirates thought.

"Ugh... the taste of a Devil Fruit is still so disgusting!"

Having struggled to swallow the Devil Fruit, Hancock raised her hands, faint white light circling them. She snapped her fingers lightly, and the entire ship shook instantly.

"It really is the Tremor-Tremor Fruit! Haha, when we encounter a new island, I must make that Momousagi look good!"

Uchiha Feiyu was speechless. Fine, you see that Momousagi hasn't eaten the Artificial Azure Dragon Fruit yet, so you're planning to take the opportunity to bully her first? Who was just here crying about being bullied by others?

For a powerhouse of Hancock's caliber, relying on her incredibly abundant stamina, she could exert a strong effect as soon as she ate the Devil Fruit, unlike Luffy or Momonosuke, who had just eaten theirs and still needed an adaptation period.

Not to mention that what she ate was the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, which has the highest attack power. Even without any development, it was enough to increase her own attack power by a significant margin, definitely enough to suppress Momousagi, who was on par with her just a short while ago.

The current Hancock was definitely a solid Admiral-level combatant. She might not be able to defeat tough guys like Akainu or Aokiji, but she would not be inferior to an Admiral-floor level fighter like Ryokugyu.

"Alright, alright... I think the one who truly likes to bully others is you, Hancock!"

Uchiha Feiyu tapped Hancock on the forehead and said helplessly. Hancock made a playful expression and stuck out her tongue:

"I am a Pirate! Pirates should be free to do things according to their own ideas, right?"

"For example, right now, Master, guess what I want to do?"

After Hancock asked this with a flushed face, she didn't wait for Uchiha Feiyu to answer. She crawled in front of Uchiha Feiyu like a little puppy, unbuckled the belt on Uchiha Feiyu's pants, and lowered her head.

After spending more than two months, the Marine warship finally arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago, taking about three times as long as a normal voyage. By the time they reached the Sabaody Archipelago, the legs of the departing female Marines were all weak.

It was mainly because Momousagi and the others felt that once they returned to the Marine, they probably wouldn't be able to stay by Uchiha Feiyu's side for a long time, which was why they were so frantic.

Upon arriving here, Momousagi and her party were summoned back to Marine Headquarters, while Uchiha Feiyu and the others were received by the CP Agent organization.

Just after arriving at the Sabaody Archipelago, Uchiha Feiyu saw a group of acquaintances and greeted them with a smile:

"Long time no see, Lucci, Kalifa! It seems you have become members of CP0! And who is this beauty?"

The ones who came to greet Uchiha Feiyu were the former CP9 Agents. It was precisely because of the introduction of these Agents that Uchiha Feiyu was able to participate in the Summit War so easily.

As a result, although Uchiha Feiyu completed the mission of the Summit War quite perfectly, he simultaneously backhanded the Marine into a severely crippled state, which could be said to have shown no face to the World Government at all.

Theoretically, this group of CP0 Agents should also have been implicated and suffered; given the temperament of the World Government and those Celestial Dragons, it would be perfectly normal to kill all these Agents or turn them into slaves.

However, because Uchiha Feiyu's own strength was truly too great, out of excessive fear, the World Government did not dare to take action against these Agents who had a relationship with Uchiha Feiyu. At the same time, they did not dare to let these Agents go on missions again, so in the end, they could only send them to Uchiha Feiyu.

Lucci was still Uchiha Feiyu's blood servant. Although Uchiha Feiyu didn't value this ability much anymore and had many substitutes, the most basic telepathic connection between him and his blood servant had not been severed at all.

"Feiyu Saint, the World Government has assigned us to be your guards. As for this one, she is our fellow Agent; you can call her Stussy."

Stussy was a beautiful woman with short, curly blonde hair, blue eyes, and lipstick, with an elegant appearance and a pretty face. Her fingers and toes were painted with bright nail polish, and she was dressed in white with a red tie, wearing fishnet stockings and high heels, looking elegant and glamorous.

"Hello, Feiyu Saint! I am under the orders of the Five Elders and am one of your personal bodyguards."

With a beaming smile on her face, Stussy bowed to Uchiha Feiyu very respectfully. However, Uchiha Feiyu's Observation Haki could sense that this CP0 Agent was full of vigilance and nervousness.

There was no help for it; Stussy was not an ordinary CP0, but the chief intelligence officer of the entire World Government Agent organization. In terms of status, she was much better than ordinary Celestial Dragon bodyguards!

It stands to reason that an Agent of her status, unless during some special periods—such as when holding a meeting of member nations—would never be a Celestial Dragon bodyguard. Not only because it was a pure waste, but also because the World Government always needed some people to do real work and couldn't let it all be ruined by those idiot Celestial Dragons.

But this time, the mission issued by the World Government was to make her obey the orders of this Uchiha Feiyu before her, truly treating herself as a bodyguard.

Although Stussy felt that this guy in front of her, who could dismiss 100 of her with a wave of his hand, probably didn't need any bodyguards at all...

Stussy could not understand the World Government's choice at all. If they wanted to use a honey trap, the World Government had plenty of specialized female Agents; Stussy herself was even in charge of this area, and there were definitely many Agents more proficient in this business than her. Why send her, the intelligence chief, over?

However, Uchiha Feiyu knew very well why the World Government sent Stussy over, because what Uchiha Feiyu wanted was an intelligence chief to begin with; beautiful female Agents and the like were secondary.

"Miss Stussy, you should be the Joy Street Queen, right! Is the World Government's intelligence network in your hands?"

Uchiha Feiyu asked directly, which immediately startled Stussy. Her expression was hesitant, but her mouth was very honest:

"That's right, I am indeed the Joy Street Queen... but the World Government's intelligence network is not entirely in my hands; I can only say that I control a part of it."

The World Government had been entrenched in the entire One Piece World for 800 years. The intelligence organizations in their hands were not just numerous, but also intertwined and overlapping.

Although Stussy was both a CP Agent and controlled Joy Street, standing out in intelligence, she definitely could not monopolize all the World Government's intelligence organizations.

Of course, because of the relationships between the intelligence organizations, unless it was some extremely confidential information, the vast majority of ordinary intelligence was transparent to Stussy.

"You control a part of the entire World Government intelligence network? That's enough! Anyway, I don't need any major confidential intelligence."

Uchiha Feiyu nodded and looked at Stussy, a faint light flashing in his eyes.

Stussy was slightly stunned. A moment later, she shook her head slightly. When she looked at Uchiha Feiyu again, it was no longer that polite respect, but full of reverence, fanaticism, and infatuation.

It wasn't just Stussy; the original group of CP Agents were almost all guided by Uchiha Feiyu's Heavenly Demon Secret in an instant. Having already had seeds planted in their hearts by Uchiha Feiyu, they had become his die-hard loyalists at this very moment.

Holy Land Mary Geoise. Uchiha Feiyu stepped onto the moving walkway and looked at the scenery here.

As the Holy Land where the Celestial Dragons lived, the scenery of Mary Geoise was impeccable. Although it was located at an altitude of several thousand meters, for some reason, the technology used meant there was no feeling of oxygen deprivation at all. At the same time, various garden designs and rare flowers and trees adorned the entire city like a paradise on earth.

However, for Uchiha Feiyu, a practitioner of Demonic Arts, he could see the terrifying resentment, hatred, anger, fear, malice, and curses permeating every inch of land in Mary Geoise...

All kinds of negative emotions permeated every brick and tile of Mary Geoise. If observed through certain special perspectives, the entire Mary Geoise seemed to be emitting thick black smoke of resentment, looking no different from a Demon King's lair.

Yet in such a place, Uchiha Feiyu felt as if he were a fish in water. Every breath allowed him to feel his spirit growing subtly. The endless resentment seemed to be the best nourishment, allowing Uchiha Feiyu's Heavenly Demon Secret to delve into a deeper level.

"Mary Geoise really is a fine place! It is worthy of being the holy land of the Celestial Dragons."

With a soft sigh of emotion, Uchiha Feiyu cast his gaze downward, his Observation Haki piercing through the earth to see the slaves laboring desperately below.

The so-called moving walkways did not actually use any black technology from the One Piece World, but rather this most primitive form of human labor; beneath the entirety of Mary Geoise, there were at least no fewer than 100,000 slaves sweating profusely, working without a moment's rest.

The moving walkways encircling the entire city, the elevators that were several thousand meters high... everything in Mary Geoise was built upon the blood and tears of slaves, so it was no wonder this city was soaked in resentment.

100,000 slaves was just the number of people working below; in reality, every day, and even every single moment, slaves would collapse and be unable to get back up, only to be replaced by new slaves.

Moreover, the Celestial Dragons living in Mary Geoise each had hundreds to thousands of slaves under their command, and the attrition rate of these slaves was extremely fast, basically requiring a complete replacement every year.

Over the past 800 years, the number of slaves buried beneath the entirety of Mary Geoise must be calculated in the hundreds of millions at the very least!

Furthermore, almost every slave was filled with resentment before they died; the hatred condensed from these countless slaves was simply like a mountain or a sea, enough to submerge all of Mary Geoise.

It was fortunate that the One Piece World was an anime world and not some fantasy or xianxia world; otherwise, this condensed resentment would definitely have transformed into some extremely troublesome great demon kings, or directly turned Mary Geoise into a terrifying otherworld like Silent Hill.

Of course, if Uchiha Feiyu had the inclination, he could truly turn this place into a world like some horror film, and by then, the Celestial Dragons of Mary Geoise would likely have quite a show to watch.

However, that was not for now; the current Uchiha Feiyu still wanted to go see those Five Elders more, and wanted even more to take the World Government—into his own hands!

Stepping into the so-called Pangea Castle, Uchiha Feiyu soon saw the Five Elders in a spacious office, a smile on his lips; the very first moment the two sides met, Uchiha Feiyu completely unleashed the control Secret Technique of the Heavenly Demon Secret upon the Five Elders, who already harbored inner demons in their hearts.
