Chapter 128: The Power of the Soul-Soul Fruit, the Power of Soul Manipulation

The youthful version of Charlotte Linlin returned, indeed making his children feel a wave of excitement; the now stronger Charlotte Linlin quickly subdued a bunch of her children.

Although she had lost the Soul-Soul Fruit, the Homies that Charlotte Linlin had created herself were still in a state of survival.

Zeus, Prometheus, and Napoleon, the three strongest Homies, still followed her.

After returning to All Countries, Charlotte Linlin began a bout of binge eating and drinking, then inquired about the condition of these women of hers.

She immediately learned that her little daughter Bulin had been taken away by Luode.

"Mama mama mama! I didn't expect that little girl to go to that man's side in this way; this is also good, from now on I, the old lady, will have more say." Charlotte Linlin spoke.

"Mom, are we really going to surrender to that man?" Charlotte Daifuku asked.

"This is also unavoidable; you guys, Mom, I have died once before, and I also owe a big thanks to the former Kaido, that brat owes me a favor."

"Otherwise, this time you won't see me; I've already boarded that brat's ship, and from now on it'll be just like when I was with the Rocks Pirates." Charlotte Linlin spoke.

Charlotte Linlin did not tell her children about the signing of the demon contract, after all, this is a soul enslavement, with life and death completely under the other party's control.

Her eldest son and second son did well this time, preserving the family's strength, after all, even this old mother of theirs was captured; what could her sons do?

"Mom! Do you mean that as long as he's strong enough, we'll keep following him, and if he isn't strong enough?" Katakuri spoke.

To be frank, during the month or so that Mom was absent, Luode and Kaido have been decent to them; if they follow this captain, he bears no grudge. So he does not want his mother to resist; if she has any intention to resist, he might even go inform on her.

"No! Don't have any other ulterior motives; from now on, follow this new captain properly, we will gain more things; he is unlike the Rocks, he is more ambitious than the Rocks, and moreover stronger." Charlotte Linlin spoke.

As long as the demon contract exists, she must unconditionally submit, let alone her children; they should honestly stay on the other party's ship! Moreover, there are benefits to be had—at least she has become younger and will gain even greater power.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense; quickly bring me some pastries and cake, I have to leave in three days. This time, Katakuri and Cracker, you two follow me; Perospero, you and Smoothie watch over the younger siblings." Big Mom spoke.

The crew of that brat Kaido have all gained new power; we must also bring our sons along to get a share.

Three days passed; during these three days, Charlotte Linlin, aside from eating, merely controlled her demon transformation and familiarized herself with this new fel power.

After three days, having pacified the people of All Countries, Charlotte Linlin took her two sons through the Dark Gate to go meet Luode.

That day, after seeing Charlotte Linlin off, Luode directly ate the Soul-Soul Fruit, gaining Soul Manipulation Power, then conducted three days of practice with the fruit's abilities.

First, after eating the Soul-Soul Fruit, Luode quickly mastered the fruit's power; his soul had been transformed by Azeroth, now reaching a demigod realm, far beyond mortals; controlling the Soul-Soul Fruit is still easy, the Soul-Soul Fruit can create life, but it consumes souls, which can be his own or plundered from others.

The strength of the transformed creature is directly related to how many souls are used; it can imbue any item or even some elements of nature with vitality.

To seize another's soul power and lifespan, but the target must feel fear, be afraid.

However, if the other party willingly gives up their soul, Luode can also extract soul energy; but if the target dies, then it's impossible to seize soul energy.

But there is a warlock skill that can collect soul fragments after an enemy's death; this shortcoming for Luode amounts to nothing.

When using one's own soul to create things, the consumed soul power can also be restored to one's own soul power.

Moreover, one can create a soul avatar, consuming one's lifespan and soul, to temporarily enhance strength in all aspects.

Besides that, the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit also granted Luode Soul Manipulation Power, giving demon contracts—or soul contracts—much stronger binding force.

For delicate manipulation of souls, he gained a deeper understanding.

Now even high-ranking members of the Burning Legion cannot undo the demon enslavement contract established by Luode, unless they are of Sargeras's caliber.

After initially familiarizing himself with the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit, Luode then took the soul of a certain dreadlord to conduct an experiment.

In the pirate world, it's impossible to capture a complete soul, but in the Azeroth world there is a certain dreadlord's soul, which was captured by myself and Rethensen.

For ordinary living beings, they must feel fear or volunteer for Luode to be able to extract their soul; but if it is a pure soul entity, then there is no problem in that regard.

However, Luode still first used fel magic to torment the opponent's soul thoroughly, then began soul extraction, and the effect was remarkably good.

The dreadlord's soul is very powerful, and these fellows have no lifespan limit; as long as we don't drain them to death in one go, after they recover we can recycle them. "Ah! Ah! Stop, please stop!" The soul of Varimathras let out a miserable cry.

His soul power is gradually being seized by Luode; why does this guy have abilities concerning souls? In this world, nobody should wield this power originally from the Shadowlands! Even the Lich King they produce using the Warden's ability can only manipulate souls, not seize soul power! "Hahaha! Looks like I need to capture more dreadlords; the soul energy of your race is the most perfect." Luode said with a grin.

The Dark Gate has already opened; soon large numbers of dreadlords, or other demons of sorts, will appear—these are all top-quality souls!

Although possessing the Soul-Soul Fruit allows replenishing soul energy anytime, anywhere, Luode still does not intend to randomly sign soul contracts; only the strong are qualified to be enslaved by him.

"What, what exactly are you?" Varimathras looked at Luode in utter terror and asked.

In the Azeroth world, someone actually mastered this power; I don't know whether it will affect the master's plans.

Luode chuckled, did not answer the dreadlord's question, and after extracting one-third of the dreadlord's soul,

Luode then stopped, placed the lethargic dreadlord back into confinement, and then walked out of the cell satisfied.

We must take the path of sustainable development; in the future we need to capture more dreadlords from time to time and occasionally extract their souls.

"Lord Luode! Mom has come over! She says she's here according to the agreement to heed your command." Bulin came hopping to Luode's face, laughing.

That night Lord Luode indulged himself with her; the next day, taking advantage of her deep sleep, Mom was released.

Furthermore, she joined the ranks under the lord's command; it is surely her own merit that allowed Mom to survive.

"Mm! Have you met her?" Luode asked.

"Mm! Mom has also become younger; although she lost the fruit's ability, she also gained demon transformation via fel power; my two older brothers have also come." Bulin spoke.

"Let her first go follow Kaido, or learn fury from the Beast Pirates' people; your two older brothers likewise! If you don't learn these, you can't be of help to me." Luode said.

To be frank, Charlotte Linlin's cultivation potential even surpasses Kaido's; Luode also looks forward to seeing how far Big Mom will grow in the future.

"Mm! Lord Luode, I actually have several sisters who are also quite pretty; would you like me to introduce them to you?" Bulin spoke.

After spending this time together, she also figured out some of Luode's fetishes; this man is very lustful, and in his room he even keeps a succubus maid who occasionally serves him.

She wants to pull in a few more sisters, to unite together in a clique.

"Forget about those sisters of yours; I'm not particularly interested in them." Luode said.

"Smoothie sis, you're the kind of long-legged beauty I like best! Galette sis also has a great figure, and her ability is butter, oh!"

"I also have a sister who is a mermaid!" Bulin said, revealing a hint of an evil smile.

Having the sisters go down to the sea is quite an amusing thing.

"We'll talk about that later." Luode said.

The legs are long, but a height of five meters is still a no-go; Galette turns out decent, and the butter ability is a bonus.

Among Big Mom's brood, there are too many disabled individuals; your mermaid sister is over eight meters tall.

Wanting a mermaid or something, why not go to Mermaid Island to look for one?

I have important matters to attend to right now! Luode directly refused Bulin's suggestion,

After gaining control of the Soul-Soul Fruit's power, Luode obtained the ability to control souls, so he wanted to try capturing a werewolf druid from the Emerald Dream and see if he could restore that person's sanity.

Starting from the soul level to restore the other's sanity, this has never been experimented with in the Azeroth world; if successful, then the Beast Pirates would all be werewolves.

Moreover, if they were to inject the Desperation Virus in the future, they would become even stronger, all of them Mythic Beasts, Flame Felwerewolves!

Returning to his room, Luode sat cross-legged on the bed, activated the mark of the Emerald Dream, and then entered the Emerald Dream.
