Xia Qi wrote her name on a man's chest with flowing strokes, and then drew a heart.
The man trembled with excitement: "I will never take a bath in my entire life!"
He left satisfied, and then the queue moved forward a short distance, where the ramen shop manager took the stage.
"Miss Xiaqi, please accept my gift. My family's ramen is a century-old establishment. With this coupon, you can come and eat for free forever!"
"If possible, could you exchange it for money?"
Xia Qi was unmoved and directly asked for money.
The shop manager hurriedly reached into his pocket and pulled out several large gold coins.
Please accept these four gold pieces!
Shaki smiled and accepted the money, handing it to Toritoma who was standing nearby.
Toritoma put the large gold into the treasure chest, which was already the fourth chest that was almost full.
Gloria Osa, standing to the side, looked on with envy: "When will I ever be this popular? Ugh!"
Just then, a commotion broke out in the long queue.
"General...the general is here!"
"Even a general can't cut in line! You bastard!"
"Miss Xia Qi, come quick! Someone is breaking the rules!"
The Shinsengumi cleared the way, pushing through the crowd, and Dimon walked all the way to the front.
He was speechless at these Wano Country bums; they didn't have the guts to rebel against him, the shogun, but they dared to call him a bastard just to be fans of their idol.
Then again, how long has Xia Qi been here? She's practically a walking succubus, bewitching this herd of cattle and horses.
"Good morning, Dimon~" Shaki greeted him with a smile.
Dimon looked at the treasure chest filled with gold and felt somewhat helpless.
The cattle and horses in the Flower Capital are still too rich. Taxes must be increased, taxes must be increased severely, this is all my money!
"I need to talk to you, so I'll stop signing autographs for now."
He called Xia Qi and went into the hotel. Outside, the cattle and horses were clamoring that it was unfair, asking why the general could enjoy private reception services.
Gloriosa seized the opportunity to take her place and shouted to the crowd:
"I'll sign next, and my signing fee will be cheaper than Xia Qi's."
"Who are you?"
In an instant, Gloriosa turned to stone, her heart breaking.
Dimon handed the newspaper to Shakky, "You can read it yourself."
Xia Qi looked completely bewildered after reading it.
I've been arrested? How come I didn't know?
"Something's not right. Is this some kind of conspiracy? If I get arrested, the global economy will grind to a halt for a month."
Is it that exaggerated?
“I suspect they’re after the Roger Pirates,” Dumbo said, offering his guess.
"If you get captured, Roger will definitely bring people to rescue you. The Navy may want to get rid of Roger, the Pirate King."
"This stupid strategy will work?" Shakky chuckled, then pursed her lips. "Well, it will."
He paused, then said, "So, you want me to publish a clarification in the newspaper?"
"I'm just letting you know; it's your freedom to do what you want."
Dimon shook his head. Just then, the communication snail in his pocket beeped.
This thing functions the same as a Den Den Mushi, and it is cylindrical in shape. It can also transmit psychic waves, but its communication range is very narrow, and it only works within the Wano Country area.
This is a version of the Den Den Mushi unique to Wano Country.
After the connection was established, Quan Lan's voice came from Tianluo's mouth.
"Moshi Moshi, Lord Dimon?"
"It's me. We found a fruit in the northern cemetery around Ringo, but it's not in the encyclopedia, so we're not sure if it's a Devil Fruit."
You've already made some progress? No wonder you have such a keen sense of smell!
Dimon's eyes lit up. "Wait there, I'll be right there."
After finishing speaking, he hung up the call and said to Xia Qi:
"You can do whatever you want with the news, but stop scamming people out of money. If you do it again, I'll kick you out."
"I know, I know, honestly, they insisted on giving me money."
Leaving the hotel, Dimon transformed into a demon and swiftly headed towards the Ringo region.
Dimon arrives at the northern cemetery in Ringo. While the Flower Capital is in the bloom of spring and cherry blossoms fill the city, it is snowing heavily here.
Dimon found Inuarashi and his two companions in front of a tombstone.
"Lord Dimon, this is it."
Upon receiving the fruit, Dimon took it and examined it, finding that it did indeed have spiral patterns on its surface.
"Isn't it in the encyclopedia?"
Dimon took the illustration and flipped through it. Among the three hundred Devil Fruit illustrations, there really wasn't the one he was holding.
"It should be a Devil Fruit. You three did a great job!"
After praising the three of them a few times, before they could even feel happy, he said, "Strike while the iron is hot, hurry up and find the next one!"
"Huh? Can't we take a break?"
"You're at the age where you should be striving, how can you waste your lives? Go now!"
The three of them had no choice but to continue their aimless search.
Dimon nodded in satisfaction and looked back at the Devil Fruit in his hand.
He guessed that this might be the Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Great Entrance form.
This fruit may have been reborn and reincarnated in Wano Country, which is why it was not included in the Pokédex.
Actually, you'll know whether it's worth it or not just by consuming it. Mythical Beast Fruits are worth at least several hundred, or even thousands of points.
[Consuming a Devil Fruit grants 800 Devil Points!]
[Demon Points]: 2400 → 3200
800 points for free.
Dimon couldn't help but smile. Inuarashi and the others did a good job; they should be rewarded properly later.
"Plans can't keep up with changes. Now that I have enough points, I'll upgrade my skills first."
It cost 3000 points to unlock skill four.
Demon Points: 200
Demon Skill 1: Create the Elixir of Immortality
Demon Skill 2: Demon Form
Demon Skill 3: Parasitic Fruit
Demon Skill 4: Domain Expansion
Demon Skill 5: Not Unlocked
There are still several unlocked skills to come, seemingly endless.
Dimon is not concerned about the unlocked skills for the time being, and instead clicks on the details of skill four.
He silently absorbed the knowledge, as if it were innate, and mastered a new ability.
"This skill... is so powerful!"
Chapter 69 [Demon Possession]
[Domain Expansion]:
Unleash the demonic realm, and all the undead that have been devoured will materialize. The undead have no mind, only the instinct to fight.
Demons can possess undead that they devour, and only while possessed can the devoured undead leave the area of their domain.
After reading the skill description, Dimon immediately knew that this was an extremely powerful skill.
Its capabilities can be broadly categorized into two types.
The first method involves unleashing a demonic realm, manifesting the beings that have been devoured to fight.
The second type is possessing an manifested undead. In this state, the combat range can extend beyond the area, which is equivalent to controlling an undead.
"This skill is very powerful. Let's find a place to test it out!"
With a flap of its wings, Dimon took off and quickly flew towards a remote coastline.
The black shadow beneath his feet was a pitch-black curtain opening, from which one after another the undead he had once devoured emerged.
They seemed to be tearing through space, descending into the mortal world from the shadows of demons.
There are more than thirty immortals, each of whom is a pirate with a bounty of over 100 million.
The four sixth-level prisoners who were previously devoured are also on the list.
Besides these, the target that Dimon cared about most was none other than Kozuki Oden.
However, compared to his life, Kozuki Oden, who stepped out from behind the curtain, was expressionless and mindless.
The next moment, all the immortals knelt down on one knee in unison, bowing to their master in perfect unison.
"Looks good. How much of its former fighting strength has it retained?"
Dimon sized them up for a moment, then gave the order: "Oden, you take them all on by yourself."
Upon receiving the order, Kozuki Oden immediately stood up, his hands clenching in the air, conjuring two fake samurai swords with demonic power.
Enma and Ame no Habakiri!
Soon, a chaotic battle broke out.
All the undead are truly immortal; no matter how they are killed, they will be resurrected in a very short time.
However, if they leave the area, these immortals will turn into black smoke and disappear.
Fortunately, his domain was very large, and it was not expanded to its limit. It was just maintained in a normal state, which was enough to encompass an area of several kilometers.
"His combat power is not as good as it was in life, and he has no mind. However, he can still use his domineering aura."
"but……"
Dimon felt his physical strength and energy rapidly draining away.
Judging from the intensity of the battle at this moment, if they simply deploy their domains without fighting, it could probably last for several hours.
If fighting breaks out, the duration will be shorter, and the more intense the battle, the greater the consumption.
"Hmm, let's try the next ability..."
Dimon's gaze fell on one of the undead.
"Amputation" Monroe was the first person he devoured, and his bounty was 5500 million Berries.
It is also the weakest of all the immortals.
With a thought, Dimon's will descended upon him, instantly taking control of the other's body.
You can see two perspectives at the same time, just like opening two windows and watching two movies at the same time, which is quite novel.
The next second, Dimon controlled Monroe to charge towards Kozuki Oden, and his powerful kick lashed out like a whip across the opponent's chest.
Kozuki Oden parried with his twin swords crossed, but was still kicked away with a powerful kick. He flew off the shore, tearing through the sea like an arrow, and disappeared outside the area.
"...Not bad, I can probably unleash about 70% of my combat power!"
