Chapter 166

【Heart-Fire Arsonist】: Stamina: +25.051%, Stamina Recovery Speed: +50.102%

Holy Light Fruit: 27.8% (Awakening Progress)

Active Skills: Weak as a Reed (Available), Shadow Sight (Used)."

But this was not the end. After briefly studying the Special Skill Upgrade Card, Karl did not hesitate to use the first one on 【Child of the Sea】.

"Use successful, 【Child of the Sea】 has been changed to 【Father of the Sea】. Conflict between Holy Light Fruit and 【Father of the Sea】 effect detected, correcting, correction successful!"

【Father of the Sea】: In the sea, one can ignore water pressure, breathe freely, move quickly, and continuously recover stamina, immune to the negative effects of Devil Fruits."

Karl's mouth curled up slightly. He had bet correctly; the sea was no longer a debuff for him!

With one Special Skill Upgrade Card left, Karl thought about it and chose to use it on 【Moving as a Rabbit】.

"Use successful, 【Moving as a Rabbit】 has been changed to 【Moving as a Mad Rabbit】."

【Moving as a Mad Rabbit】: In combat state, stamina consumption is reduced by 75%.

With this, Karl had completely become a stamina monster. Added with the bonuses of 【Quiet as a Virgin】 and 【Heart-Fire Arsonist】, Karl was willing to call it "Sit-ups (Pseudo)".

Now Karl felt he was only missing Conqueror's Haki. Should he go find Teacher Kaido to bump into him?

Maybe he could get it in one step?

"Eh~ why do you feel like you've grown taller?"

Karl was stunned. He had just strengthened his physique; could it have the effect of making him grow taller?

Karl stood up quickly and found it seemed to be true. Originally, he was a head taller than Ain; now it was more than a head.

"You really grew taller! Hey~ wait a moment, I'll go find a ruler!"

"Look, I told you! Now your height is 198CM, 6CM taller than before!"

Karl said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "How did you know I grew 6CM?"

"I of course... Hmph, can't I just tell? I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to play with Shirahoshi!" Ain ran away with a blushing face.

Karl laughed dumbly and suddenly patted his head. He had almost forgotten to test the effect of Weakness Perception, so Karl activated Observation Haki.

In his Observation Haki perception, there were over a dozen weaknesses on Ain. These were the most basic human weak points. Even without activating Observation Haki, Karl would usually attack these weak points.

But Weakness Perception was more than that. As Ain moved, the weaknesses exposed on her body would also change accordingly.

This showed that Weakness Perception had the ability of dynamic change, changing with the opponent's movement and moves, factually showing Karl the current weak points to land a "critical hit."

"Phew, feels quite practical. If I could get future sight or telepathy in the future, that would be great."

Bang bang bang!

Just as the knocking sound started, Smoker couldn't wait to elementalize and drill through the door crack, entering the palace.

"The Flying Pirates have landed on Fish-Man Island. They are currently causing trouble in Water Wheel Town. Jinbe has already taken people there! Let's go too!"

"Water Wheel Town?"

Karl touched his chin, feeling something was not quite right. Water Wheel Town was the town furthest from Long Gong City; why go there?

"No rush, let Jinbe handle it. We will stay in Long Gong City and wait for the rabbit!"

Smoker was about to say something but suddenly froze: "You mean, this guy Fan De Dai Ken is making a feint in the east to attack in the west?"

"Very possible! After all, the Navy is not on Fish-Man Island now, and the most threatening person on Fish-Man Island is Jinbe."

"With Jinbe gone, then Long Gong City... Hehe, I don't need to say more, right?"

Outside Long Gong City.

"How is the situation?"

"Don't worry, Boss, Jinbe has already rushed to Water Wheel Town. Now Long Gong City only has some Neptune Army soldiers left. We can just rush in and find Princess Shirahoshi."

Fan De Dai Ken's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a lecherous smile: "He, hehe, Princess Shirahoshi, I'm coming!"

Bang~

The wall of Long Gong City collapsed with a roar, and over a dozen fierce fish-man pirates rushed in.

"Brothers, charge! Kill anyone who blocks the way!"

"Ooooooh!"

Nelson put down his binoculars and revealed a smile. It was indeed as expected.

"Pirates are here! Everyone, keep your spirits up!"

"Yes!"

Ain, who was playing with Shirahoshi, also heard the loud noise and quickly looked at Karl: "It must be that guy Fan De Dai Ken! I'll go take a look!"

Karl nodded: "Then I'll leave it to you! Life or death doesn't matter."

Although he had just strengthened himself, Karl had no interest in making a move. If he had to make a move himself for such small characters, then he wouldn't be able to slack off at all.

On the other side.

After Fan De Dai Ken marked a Neptune Army soldier, he quickly hid behind the palace and casually took out a small knife and threw it.

The knife seemed to have eyes, spinning in the air a few times before hitting the Neptune Army soldier directly between the eyebrows, killing him in one strike.

"Tch! The Neptune Army is indeed all trash."

Looking at the Hard-Shell Tower not far away, Fan De Dai Ken's heart gradually became hot. After a year, he could finally see Shirahoshi, whom he had been thinking about, again.

After taking his underlings to deal with a group of Neptune Army soldiers, Fan De Dai Ken finally arrived in front of the Hard-Shell Tower. Although the lack of guards made him feel a bit strange, the swords, hammers, and halberds on the Hard-Shell Tower made him very certain that Shirahoshi was here.

"Hehehe~ Shirahoshi! Look who's here to see you!"

Click click click~

Fan De Dai Ken pushed open the door and froze.

He saw over twenty Navy soldiers pointing their guns at him, with Nelson, Ain, and Smoker standing in the center, looking at him with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

"Navy! How could there be Navy? Didn't you leave?"

Ain gave a mocking laugh: "Yes, we did leave, but we came back!"

"Pedophilic pervert, prepare to die!" After saying this, Ain rushed toward Fan De Dai Ken first.

Fan De Dai Ken's soul fled in terror, shouting in shock: "Damn it, we've been tricked, retreat! Retreat!"

"Surrender! Pirate!" ===== CHAPTER 168 =====
