Chapter 77

The Beasts Pirates still have a major project to undertake; their combat forces number over thirty thousand, and they will also mobilize some strength from Wano Country.

They can barely finish constructing the Dark Gate within a month, and they must start work immediately to do so.

"I understand, boss. Should I call over that guy, the Wano Country general Black Charcoal Giant Snake?" Flame Disaster Remnant asked.

"We don't need to notify that guy for whatever we do; we just need to mobilize the forces under his command. Such trash isn't worth paying attention to." Kaido snorted and said.

Previously, they kept Black Charcoal Giant Snake around to help rule Wano Country, but now Kaido thinks it's unnecessary.

Kaido's original plan was to make his daughter Yamato the general of Wano Country, but this brat always disobeyed; now she's finally been corrected, and Luode can also serve as the general of Wano Country.

If the guy Luode mentioned can truly take the opponent's Devil Fruit ability, then putting a Mythical Zoan Yamata no Orochi ability on such a worthless person would be a terrible waste.

Kaido plans to kill Black Charcoal Giant Snake directly and then seize his Devil Fruit; the Mythical Zoan ability is extraordinarily precious.

"Yo! Hehe! This beauty is very pretty, with purplish-black skin—she's a race I've never seen before!" Kuinyin said, looking at Sylvanas in front of him.

Sylvanas's appearance, no matter which world she's in, belongs to the top tier of beauties, and her pointed long ears and blood-red eyes give her a unique charm.

In the pirate world, nobody would consider her an undead, since the traditional notion of undead is just skeletons and zombies!

Kuinyin immediately came over, grinning, wanting to start getting close.

Looking at the enormous, extremely obese giant in front of her—clearly not a normal person—Sylvanas furrowed her brows, sensing some metal in his body structure; as the Queen of the Banshees, she could feel some life energy.

She can indeed accept men, but only those as handsome and strong as Luode; it doesn't mean she'd accept a giant as fat as this.

"If you don't want to die, get the hell away from me." Sylvanas said bluntly.

"What a fiery personality!" Kuinyin said, clasping his hands together and fidgeting in place.

This scene again made Sylvanas feel nauseated; that dead fatso is really disgusting.

"Don't embarrass me like that, Kuinyin! Having trash like you really makes the Beasts Pirates lose face—how can you be my equal? These two are obviously the boss's guests." Ash said helplessly on the side.

Flame Disaster Remnant sized up Sylvanas and the Old Beastman; these are two completely unknown special races—one has green skin with flames burning on his head, maybe a special race like their Lunaria? If the Old Beastman knew what Flame Disaster Remnant was thinking, he'd surely lash out in criticism; the flames on my head are due to the aftermath of my injuries, and I damn well don't want to become a flaming head!

As for Sylvanas on the side, Ash thought she was merely a special race, her skin just a bit different; such races are plentiful in the pirate world.

But strangely, Jin's Observation Haki seemed unable to sense this woman's existence at all! It was as if, as if, the woman before them wasn't a living being.

How could this be? She's clearly standing right in front of me, and my eyes aren't blind—it's really strange. Could it be some special racial ability that can shield one's life aura? 'Several big shots! While I and Kaido were away, has any major good news happened here?' Luode asked.

If I calculate the time, the Summit War should have started by now! I should also be able to receive some news.

'If you say that, then indeed there have been some special news lately! We were just about to report to Kaido. Kaido, the Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, Fire Fist Ace, has been captured by the Marines.'

'And they've decided to execute him publicly—Whitebeard old man can't sit still, leading his fleet and a large bunch of his pirate crews, they've already entered the first half of the Grand Line's Paradise.' Flame Disaster Jin said.

The only major recent event is this; as for some Supernovas causing a ruckus in the Sabaody Archipelago, to these New World Four Emperor pirate crews, it's not exactly earth-shattering news.

After hearing that, Kaido and Luode exchanged a glance; the timing was just right.

'How much longer until Fire Fist Ace's execution?' Kaido asked.

'Three days—three days from now is Fire Fist Ace's execution day. Kaido, do you plan to get involved?' Jin asked.

'Hmph! This time, I'll settle things with Whitebeard once and for all, and take care of some other business on the side.' Kaido said.

This time, Whitebeard must not die at someone else's hands; he has to die by my own hand—after all, he was once a member of the Rocks Pirates.

I ought to give Whitebeard a proper send-off.

This time I'm back, one major goal is to go to the Summit War, retrieve Whitebeard's corpse, and also find a certain pirate called Blackbeard.

In the pirate world now, Kaido doesn't even regard anyone; his current strength is completely overwhelming. Moreover, soon his crew members will experience a surge in power—fel energy and rage can both increase their strength.

In the world of Azeroth, Kaido isn't idle; there's a power that lets these pirates easily master it. In his view, the most useful and practical is rage.

As for other wild powers—natural, holy light, death—we'll set them aside for now; first everyone must master rage.

Even recruiting new members for the Beasts Pirates is extremely strict—at the very least, they must pass the physical qualification. All members of the Beasts Pirates.

Even a lowly soldier, after undergoing fel baptism, will see their physical quality increase considerably.

Once the Dark Portal opens and we go to another world, having learned rage will be like adding wings to a tiger.

After chatting a bit more with his several big shots, Kaido had them leave first, then went to gather all personnel, collect materials, and prepare to build the Dark Portal.

'My apprentice! You said that Devil Fruit can heal my wounds—can you give it to me now?' Treesen asked.

This time, his ultimate purpose in coming to this new world is to heal his wounds and merge with fel energy.

Don't worry! For you, instructor, this is the Devil Fruit we agreed on earlier—after eating it, you'll gain the ability to transform into an animal.

It also allows maintaining a half-beast form, greatly enhancing physical prowess.

'If developed to the extreme, it can even awaken.' Luode smiled and took out that Ox-Ox Fruit, antelope form.

After arriving in the pirate world, this Devil Fruit immediately regained its pattern, and its color turned back to its original hue.

The old beastman took a deep breath, took the fruit and bit into it, his face changed, though he didn't say much more, and ate the entire Devil Fruit.

The taste is indeed hard to swallow, but for beastmen, as long as it's edible, there's nothing they can't eat.

After eating the Devil Fruit, the old beastman clearly felt a power flowing within his body.

The fel energy within his body, along with the power from previously being infected by Ragnaros, began to manifest under some special rule.

Relying on years of experience with fel magic, the old beastman forcibly suppressed the turmoil of the three powers.

'Instructor! Find a way to bring the energy within your body to a balance point, then let them merge together.' Luode said.

Earlier, when I first took the Devil Fruit, the fel energy also surged out and caused a disturbance, but back then Kaido's blood helped a lot.

But even without Kaido's blood, if handled properly.

It should also be possible to suppress fel energy, except that back then my mental strength was lacking, and my control over fel was truly poor.

The old beastman nodded, sat cross-legged on the ground, and with his immense mental strength began to guide the fel energy within his body, the Devil Fruit energy that had just entered, and the power of the Flame King Ragnaros on his head, to fuse them together.

About an hour later, Treesen, sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes; a crimson light flashed in them, and at that moment the flames on his head had vanished.

'Hoo! Moo! Moo!' the old beastman bellowed, beginning to transform into antelope form, and after the transformation his size became enormous.

His height reached four meters, his body length exceeded seven meters, and on his four hooves burned green fel flames, while his head, back, and tail burned with Ragnaros's crimson flames.

'I feel a brand-new power.' the old beastman said.

Standing beside them, Luode, Kaido, Dahe and others were extremely shocked, Holy shit! An ordinary animal Devil Fruit, you actually turned it into a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit!

First, its size is far greater than an ordinary wildebeest's; moreover, flames burn on its head and back, and green sinister fire burns on its hooves.

This clearly shows that this form can control sinister energy and flames; this fucking thing has directly upgraded to a Mythical Zoan! "Congratulations, Instructor, you have successfully merged your power, and the ordinary Devil Fruit has now become a Mythical Zoan." Luode spoke.
