Chapter 231: Testing the Lottery
Drum Island.
"Chopper, goodbye! We're leaving!"
Ain waved goodbye to Chopper. Chopper was already teary-eyed, waving his small hooves reluctantly.
"Goodbye! Ain, goodbye Karl, I'll miss you!"
Karl grinned: "We'll miss you too. Maybe it won't be long before we meet again on the sea!"
Chopper: Huh?
"Chopper is really cute. If only he could join the Navy."
Karl shook his head: "What would happen if he joined the Navy? He'd just be a mascot. The sea is his true home."
Ain frowned: "You mean, he's going to be a pirate?"
"Maybe. I heard from Kureha that the man Chopper respected most, Hiriluk, was originally a notorious thief. He loved pirates and yearned for the free-spirited nature of pirates. So, Chopper..."
Ain sighed: "Sigh, why do we keep running into this lately! What's so good about being a pirate? Isn't the Navy free enough?"
"Hehehe, don't forget, Ain, you're a Vice Admiral now. When the Buster Call is summoned, you won't think so."
Ain said indifferently: "So what? One thing on the surface, another behind the scenes. I learned that from you."
Karl was stunned, then patted Ain on the shoulder: "You learned it well. I Move Move Like it."
Ain gave a sweet smile and looked at the distant sea: "Sigh, when we go back, we'll have to go everywhere catching pirates again. We won't be able to see each other for a long time. Ah, how annoying."
Karl laughed uncharitably. Because of Aokiji and Akainu, he had been very idle lately, especially idle.
Big pirates didn't fall to him, and small fries didn't fall to him either. He only needed to stand by at any time, which was very comfortable, because standing by could also accumulate "slacking off" time.
Seeing Karl's smile, Ain was a bit angry. Just as she wanted to complain, a flash of lightning crossed her mind.
"Karl!"
"What's wrong?"
"Come, come inside with me. I can't see you for the next few months, so..."
In any case, she couldn't let Hancock get the upper hand for nothing!
Karl was stunned, then was pulled into the house by Ain. Before entering, he specifically checked the time.
It's only nine in the morning!!! What on earth do you want to do?
Night, eight o'clock. Ain was exhausted and quickly entered a deep sleep, unable to be woken up no matter how much he called.
Well, Karl couldn't say anything else, but in terms of endurance, he was definitely at the ceiling level. It was impossible for a little chick Move Move Like Ain to drain him!
Taking advantage of Ain's sleep, Karl leaned against the head of the bed and muttered in his heart: "System, how many random rewards have been accumulated?"
"Currently, 101 random rewards have been accumulated. Would you Move Move Like to draw them all?"
Karl rubbed his chin: "No, just draw 100. Leave one as a memento."
"Drawing, please wait..."
"Draw successful. Rewards obtained are as follows:"
Rare rewards: 10 Fate Enhancement Stones *3, Top-tier Attribute Enhancement Card *8, Treasure Finder (one-time use).
Ordinary rewards: Berries, snacks**, lifespan.
Fate Enhancement Stone: Can enhance any item, with a 50% chance of success, up to +10.
Treasure Finder: Say what you want, and the Treasure Finder will automatically guide you to find it. Can only be used once.
Karl grinned. His luck today was not bad. In the past, getting an enhancement card was considered good luck. Today, he actually got two good things.
Karl glanced at Ain beside him, got up quietly, walked to the window, and picked up the Raven leaning against the wall.
Enhancement stones are definitely best used for weapons. The Raven was the weapon he used most comfortably; if he didn't enhance it, who would he enhance?
Then Karl took out a Fate Enhancement Stone from the system space—a round stone, half black and half white. That is to say, Karl had a 50% chance of becoming a "European" (lucky).
As for why it was becoming a European instead of an African (unlucky), it was because Karl was generally an African.
There are those who go from African to European, but who goes from European to African?
"50% chance, it shouldn't be that dark..."
Karl took a deep breath and slapped the Fate Enhancement Stone onto the Raven's blade. He only heard a light crisp sound, and there was no reaction.
"This... counts as a failure?"
Karl scratched his head. Mm, testing the waters for the first time, just treat it as a cushion. He still had 29 more!
Second try... no movement.
Third try... no reaction.
Fourth try... the red gem at the top of the Raven's hilt flickered. Mm, the Raven was awake, probably wondering what Karl was doing.
"System, the probability of this Fate Enhancement Stone isn't right! I've enhanced it four times, and it hasn't succeeded yet. Did you send the wrong thing?"
"Please rest assured, host, there is absolutely no mistake. The probability of the Fate Enhancement Stone is indeed 50%."
Damn, why don't you just say I'm unlucky?
Karl was a bit unconvinced and slapped it four more times in a row.
The result was somewhat unexpected; Karl didn't succeed even once.
"Sigh..."
There was no other way. Karl had to look at Ain, who was sleeping. It must be because he didn't wash his face.
Fine, Fate Enhancement Stone, you just wait! I'm going to wash my face with facial cleanser right now!
Ain was really tired. After Karl washed his face, she didn't wake up, still hugging Karl's neck in a daze, trying to suffocate him.
What a vicious woman!
*Bang*~ A white light flashed across the Raven's blade and disappeared in a flash. Karl's eyes lit up immediately. This... counts as a success?
Karl quickly condensed a ball of holy light to illuminate the room, while he watched the changes in the Raven.
Mm, there was a slight change, but it wasn't very obvious, after all, it was only +1.
Try again!
Fate Enhancement Stones were slapped onto the Raven's blade one after another. It had to be said that after washing his face, Karl's luck was much more normal.
It took a total of 20 tries to finally enhance the Raven to the top level. Now he only had 10 Fate Enhancement Stones left.
"Eh, wait... how..."
Karl frowned, feeling that the Raven seemed to be trembling, as if it were undergoing some kind of transformation. It was actually still absorbing his Haki!!!
"System, what's going on!"
"Ding, detected that 【Raven】 is evolving. Please continue to input Haki to help it evolve. You can also input other weapons to enhance the evolution effect."
Isn't this the same as when his Devil Fruit ability evolved? So, Karl looked at the two swords hanging on the wall.
Shusui, Raiu.
It's decided, it's you! Shusui, who told you that you weren't comfortable to use!
Mm, forget it, you come too, Raiu.
Join the glorious evolution!!!
