Chapter 291

Qiozu took a deep breath and swallowed the enormous Dragon-level monster cell in one gulp.

The next second.

Qiozu suddenly let out wave after wave of pained, low growls.

Every hair on his body instantly stood on end, like steel needles!

His skin turned as crimson as blood.

The veins on his neck bulged starkly.

His blood vessels became extremely prominent.

Buzz~

Such tremendous agony made Qiozu instinctively activate the power of the Diamond Fruit.

In an instant, his entire body was covered in a layer of incomparably hard diamond.

But even the hardness of diamond,

could not withstand the terrifying side effects of the Dragon-level monster cell.

Qiozu was soon drenched in blood, screaming without cease.

His appearance looked incomparably ferocious and terrifying.

Seeing this scene.

all the Whitebeard commanders were utterly horrified.

In terms of physical defense, Qiozu was the toughest among them.

After all, the hardness of diamond—even Hawkeye, the world's greatest swordsman, could not break through it so easily with his strikes.

However.

Even Qiozu, whose defense was so formidable and whose physique was so robust,

now appeared so utterly wretched in pain.

The side effects of this Dragon-level monster cell were simply too terrifying!

"There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world; if you want to obtain great power, you must pay an equivalent price."

Luo Xing's voice spoke lightly at this moment.

Marco, Vista, and the other commanders were startled once again.

Unconsciously,

their sense of awe toward Luo Xing deepened by several degrees.

After all,

no matter how terrifying this Dragon-level monster cell was, the one who created it was the very man standing before them!

Qiozu's agony lasted for a full quarter of an hour.

before finally coming to an end.

Qiozu already possessed the strength to challenge an Admiral of the Four Emperors' caliber, approaching the pinnacle combat power of this sea.

Just now.

He had also eaten a Senzu Bean given by Luo Xing, and the arm severed by Aokiji and the injuries inflicted by Blackbeard had all been instantly restored.

This allowed him to ultimately withstand the side effects of the Dragon-level monster cell.

Qiozu's stature had become a full double what it was before.

His aura was even more Equally Heavy than a mountain.

The Whitebeard commanders sensed it slightly, and one after another revealed looks of horror.

Qiozu's current aura was far too terrifying!

It was simply not comparable to before!

Even Marco and Vista showed shock in their eyes.

They were certain.

If they were to fight Qiozu now,

even if the two of them attacked together, they would absolutely not be Qiozu's match!

The amplification degree of the Dragon-level monster cell could be called heaven-defying!

Marco could not help but sigh deeply in his heart,

no wonder the Beasts Pirates' current strength had become so terrifying.

With such heaven-defying monster cells, it would be impossible not to be terrifying.

And with the continuous empowerment of monster cells, the Beasts Pirates would only grow stronger and stronger..........

Until they changed the entire world!

The future undoubtedly belonged to the era of the Beasts!

Even if Pops were resurrected, he probably could not contend with the Beasts Pirates.

Marco had to admit this point.

Qiozu, whose strength had been greatly enhanced, closed his eyes.

He was comprehending the power that had suddenly surged within his body.

Luo Xing said:

"Qiozu still needs some time to familiarize himself with his current power."

"You all saw the intensity of the Dragon-level monster cell just now; aside from Marco and Vista, the rest of you should take Ghost-level monster cells."

Luo Xing's tone was very casual.

But it carried a tone close to that of a command.

And the Whitebeard division commanders naturally accepted this order without question.

Even Ma Erke and Vista obeyed Luo Xing's arrangement.

This undoubtedly completely established the master-subordinate relationship between Luo Xing and the Whitebeard division commanders.

The division commanders after the Whitebeard 5th Division all consumed monster cells of Ghost-level.

Ma Erke and Vista consumed Dragon-level ones.

Half an hour later,

everyone had completed their enhancement.

Feeling the surging power within their bodies,

the Whitebeard division commanders could not contain their wild joy.

They all shouted loudly;

"Strong, far too strong! This power keeps welling up endlessly!"

"Hahaha, with this we can definitely kill that bastard Teach and avenge Pops!"

"Right, kill Teach — I can't wait even a single moment longer!"

The explosive surge in strength gave them an unprecedented, immense confidence.

These remnants of the Whitebeard crew, who had recently been beaten black and blue by Blackbeard,

now actually wanted to go settle the score with Blackbeard immediately.

"Calm down, don't let power blind your eyes!"

A thunderous shout suddenly rang out.

It was none other than Ma Erke, the foremost among the division commanders.

Ma Erke's aura was now as deep and vast as the ocean.

His Phoenix characteristic meant that even the side effects of Dragon-level monster cells did not cause him much suffering.

But,

the increase in his strength was the greatest among them all.

Even surpassing Jozu and Vista!

Ma Erke had clearly already stepped into the tier of top-tier powerhouses, capable of contending with an Emperor's top commander!

Yet Ma Erke still kept his composure,

not letting the sudden surge of power cloud his mind.

He spoke:

"Our strength has grown too fast — we need some time to stabilize it. Besides, we still don't know where Teach's lair is."
