Chapter 112

To put it bluntly.

Steel Fist is to perfectly solidify one's own muscles, bones, and joints, and then gather them together to burst out with near-invincible power and destructive force.

How to put it~~~

Steel Fist is one of two fist techniques in the Long-Arm Tribe, along with Soft Fist.

And Steel Fist is a fist technique that is very easy to enter but very difficult to master.

Soft Fist is exactly the opposite; it is very difficult to enter, but once you enter, it is very easy to cultivate.

In short!

Locke happened to learn Steel Fist a year ago. No way, mainly because the Long-Arm Tribe, like Wano Country, is basically in a state of isolation and closed-door policy. Although Steel Fist is not worth much in the Long-Arm Tribe, it is very precious outside.

Facts proved!

Locke is truly a terrifying monster. He only spent one year getting Steel Fist, and he could already control both his joints and muscles to burst out with stronger power. The next step is to add bones to it.

"That's why I said!" Leone said confidently: "This is His Highness, this was originally a matter of course."

"..."

Snake didn't continue to say anything.

Following the shattering of Kaido's iron club, the battle also ended. Locke stretched his muscles slightly and said casually: "I have to admit, after learning the fist technique, the control over power seems to be more perfect!"

"Pfft!"

Kaido curled his lips unhappily and said: "That kind of thing! It's purely a meaningless thing. In my view, only absolute power can crush everything!"

Snap!

Clenching his fist, Kaido even crushed the air directly.

However!

How to put some words, some people's aptitude is very terrifying, their strength improvement is very astonishing, but in terms of technique? Uh~~~

That can only be said to be purely trash, and Kaido is clearly in such a situation; this is absolutely undeniable.

"You guy, you're just sour grapes." Locke also complained about Kaido casually. After finishing, he asked: "Kaido, you guy, do you agree to the deal we agreed on?"

"Hmph!"

Kaido snorted unhappily: "You guy, you're making a huge profit!"

Locke shrugged and said: "Who told me not to have an obsession with a certain Devil Fruit?!"

"Pfft!"

Kaido was even more unhappy, but still nodded and said: "No problem, 1 common type for 2 Devil Fruits, 1 ancient type for 3 Devil Fruits, 1 mythical type can be exchanged for 5 Devil Fruits."

"Deal!" Locke nodded and said: "Leone, take out that Devil Fruit."

"Okay, Your Highness."

Leone didn't know where she took out a Devil Fruit, raised her hand, and said: "Kaido, this is the Dog-Dog Fruit: Common Type: Dog Form Devil Fruit. It's 1 for 2 as agreed!"

Two years!

Even in the Rocks Pirates, Devil Fruits are not infinite and can be supplied in unlimited quantities; this is all limited.

Naturally!

With the gap in this, it must be the current situation. Locke only got one Zoan Devil Fruit this year, but as for money? He got a full 700 million Beli, and Leone was making money every day, and the speed of strength improvement was also extremely fast.

Two-color Haki, especially Observation Haki, improved very astonishingly.

And!

As time passed, Leone's development of the Teigu Lionelle reached a more astonishing degree.

One could only say!

The power of the Teigu has not been perfectly unleashed by the Teigu user. It cannot be said that every Teigu can evolve, but! The power of every Teigu is absolutely not that ordinary.

Mm~~~

Leone's current strength has basically reached the strength of a Commodore, and can be considered a powerhouse of the middle-level backbone. If she continues to cultivate diligently, becoming a Vice Admiral level is definitely not a problem.

"Holy crap?!" Kaido looked at the Devil Fruit Leone took out and cursed directly: "So, you guy had been prepared for a long time?"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"Are you trading or not?"

"Trade!"

Compared to Locke, Kaido got two Devil Fruits in these two years, but! Neither of them were Zoan Devil Fruits. For Kaido, he wasn't particularly interested.

Seriously!

Locke didn't know very clearly why Kaido had such an obsession with Zoan Devil Fruits, and had an attitude of not caring at all about other types of Devil Fruits, regardless of what they were, but was more interested in Zoan Devil Fruits.

One could only say.

This thing is hard to say.

Soon!

The two finished the exchange, and Locke took the two Devil Fruits in his hand and put them away directly. From setting sail until now, he had already collected 10 Devil Fruits, and this was only a total of two years!

Sure enough!

You still have to be on the Great Sea for the gains to be huge enough. At home? In those 15 years, he didn't know how much money he had spent to barely collect 5 Devil Fruits.

"Right!" Locke suddenly thought of something and said to Leone: "Leone, how is the training of the people there?"

Leone understood in a second and said seriously: "Your Highness, they have been trained almost enough. Although it's very unpleasant! But, that woman's ability to train people is truly quite astonishing. It's absolutely enough."

"Let's go!"

"Let's see how it is. If it's suitable, perfect! There aren't enough people making money here."

"Mm!"

Locke and Leone left.

Actually!

The meaning of the two's conversation was very simple, which proved that Locke's fruit ability was a space-type fruit ability, and at the same time! It also proved that if the two summoned others, they were purely people trained by Noxas.

8-6-5-0-2-9

Throughout the whole process, the two didn't avoid others, and didn't say any names.

However!

The more this was the case, the more it made everyone have to admit it. Such words were actually easier for people to admit.

"..."

Kaido and Snake looked at each other, and Snake spoke first: "Noxas! It has already gotten rid of the initial trouble. I heard! The Great General of Noxas, a woman named Esdeath, trained a total of 10,000 elite soldiers, and! The elite level of these 10,000 people has already begun to gradually approach those elite Navy soldiers at the G3 Branch."

"Locke, this guy!" Kaido narrowed his eyes and said: "Completely treats the Rocks Pirates as a tool for making money, completing missions here to obtain Devil Fruits, obtaining money, and then improving the strength of Noxas."

"Indeed!"

The two discussed with each other, and this matter was settled.

Plus Locke's space-type Devil Fruit ability, he could teleport objects and humans at will, and even! Even the intermediate steps were omitted. Good heavens, this is simply a perfect money-making machine.

And for this scene, Rocks was also very satisfied. All he had to do was complete the mission. As for whose hands the money fell into? I'm not interested!

Besides!

In the past year or so, the efficiency, frequency, and completion of Leone's missions were all very excellent and astonishing. Are you kidding me! Who doesn't like such an employee?

210 Back in his room!

Locke absorbed 5 Devil Fruits directly and chose to summon.

"Summoning a Teigu with 5 Devil Fruits, this is only the third time, and I already feel the pressure!" Locke felt the consumed energy and thought secretly in his heart: "It can almost be determined that all the energy is almost exhausted."

"At most it's..."

"Twice!"

"At most, after two more times, when summoning a Teigu, 5 Devil Fruits will not be enough."

It sounds very troublesome, but Locke could clearly feel that at most after summoning 5 times, 5 Devil Fruits would not be enough at all. By then, he would need to increase the number of Devil Fruits.

"Forget it!"

"Don't think so much for now. Before the Rocks Pirates go through the God Valley War, I must plunder enough wealth."

"And..."

Locke narrowed his eyes. You know, the God Valley War, that's where the Celestial Dragons gather. There! There is absolutely enough wealth. Precisely because of this! That is also the last and best opportunity, and he can absolutely make a huge profit.

"At the same time!" Locke looked at Esdeath sitting on the sofa as a phantom, and Leone standing by his side with her arms crossed. Some words were not said much. Devil Fruits! Not enough at all! As time passed, he keenly noticed that Devil Fruits seemed to be able to cause some different situations for the Teigu.

For this situation, Locke couldn't be sure if it would be determined later.
