Pirates: The Fourth Scourge

Chapter 23 Devil Fruit Fragments
In fact, since the game officially announced the countdown to the public beta and the opening of the game forum, it felt a little bit wrong when it was dark.

He began to doubt his memory.

Did you really watch this anime in the real world before you entered the game?
The answer is. no.

The real world he lives in is a technologically advanced world. Cultures such as animation have been eliminated hundreds of years ago. How could he have seen it?

As the posts on the forum became more and more outrageous, what [inside beta players finally broke the news!One Piece is actually so dead! 】,【Internal test navy players broke the news: the title of admiral is actually】.
Hei Shi finally confirmed that he, like real people, had never seen anything [One Piece].

However, how did he get his extra memory of [One Piece]?
When it was dark, I felt a little terrified of thinking carefully, and didn't dare to think any more.

But one thing that is certain is that real players have never read the original work of One Piece.

This is undoubtedly good news for him.

After randomly browsing some unnutritive posts, I closed the forum in the dark.

The time has come to eight o'clock, and the number of [Arena] has been refreshed.

Following Hei Shi's thoughts, he has "arrived" in a vast land.

Of course, Hei Shi's body on the bed was still on the bed, looking like he was resting with his eyes closed.

[Because you achieved No.1 result in the arena settlement last week, the reward settlement is now in progress.】

[Obtain Devil Fruit Fragment X1, Competitive Points 500 (Your Competitive Points have reached the upper limit, automatically converted to 50000 Baileys)]

"Huh? Is this week actually a new week? But, why not a skill advancement book? This reward might as well be exchanged for one hundred thousand Baileys." Hei Shi forgot about this.

The arena will be settled once a week, and rewards will be distributed on Mondays. At the same time, the rewards for the top three are relatively generous, such as [-] Baileys, skill advancement books, etc., and of course, the most pitiful [Demon Fruit Fragments].

[Devil Fruit Fragments]: Collect all 999 devil fruit fragments to synthesize a complete devil fruit.

Yes, nine hundred and ninety-nine pieces!
Even if all the weekly rewards are devil fruit shards, it would take 19 years to collect one!
But the chance of this reward appearing is very low. After 19 years, Heishi only collected more than 200 fragments, which is far from 999 fragments, not even one-third.

That's why Hei Shi felt that this reward was not even as good as [-] Baileys.

Of course, this is also because there is only one activity in the game now. Hei Shi feels that after the official public beta, there will definitely be many more ways to obtain [Devil Fruit Shards]. At the same time, players can also trade them. Those who want to collect all 999 pieces Although the difficulty is still very high, it will never be like now that you have played in the arena for 19 years to get more than 200 coins.

As for the [Skill Advancement Book] that Hei Shi wanted the most, it was almost what he wanted the most right now.

Because many of his skills have already reached the upper limit of experience, he must need the [Skill Advancement Book] to advance.

In addition to the "skills" he has learned in this game, such as [Six Styles], [Boom Fist], [Domineering], etc., can be improved through self-training, but like other [Appraisal], [Creation], [ Sailing], [Basic Swordsmanship], [Basic Boxing] and other skills that appear on the skill panel all require the [Skill Advancement Book] to advance.

But the output of [Skill Advancement Book] is not high, and the probability is estimated to be a little higher than that of [Devil Fruit Fragments]. So even if Hei Shi has played in the arena for 19 years, there are still a lot of skills that are LV1 and LV2. of.

Although the practicality of these skills is almost extremely low, they all have one thing that cannot be ignored-the ability to increase three-dimensional attributes.

For example, [Appraisal] can add spirit, [Crafting] can add strength, [Cooking], [Basic Swordsmanship] and other skills can add agility and strength at the same time. Basically, you can add a little for each level, even if it is not much. , but after the skill level is increased, the attributes of the seven, seven, eighty-eight skills added up are quite considerable.

This is so important for Hei Shi, who can only increase attributes through exercise now!
As for the competitive points, Hei Shi doesn't know the specific use of them at present, because all the game stores are closed now, but according to his previous experience in playing games, the competitive points should be exchangeable for some items.

In the past 19 years, his competitive points have already overflowed like experience, reaching as much as 100 million, and now he is waiting for the game mall to open and exchange for items.

After receiving the reward, Hei Shi also closed the package space and started [Automatic Matching].

[Matching opponents, please wait]

[Matching is successful. The opponent is: Human-Machine No. 18]

Suddenly a bolt of lightning descended in the vast expanse of land, followed by a tall and straight figure.

Although he is not tall, his whole body exudes a fierce aura. This is a great swordsman!

Hei Shi frowned slightly, what he hated the most was meeting human-machine No. 18 and human-machine No. 3.

Because these two are not ability users, but swordsmen, it is very troublesome to deal with them.

After all, he is unarmed, even if he is protected by armed domineering, if he is not careful, he will be pierced and defeated.

With the end of the ten-second countdown, the man-machine No. 18 on the opposite side pulled out the silver-white long knife from the scabbard without saying a word, and swiped a few times in the direction of the black time.

Afterwards, several slashes of huge sword energy visible to the naked eye cut through the air and rushed towards Heishi.

Hei Shi didn't dodge, concentrated strength in his right hand, swung his fist towards one of the sword slashes, and a shock wave directly collided with the sword slash, causing a violent vibration, and then a muffled sound, under the impact of the two forces, it seemed The space is almost distorted.

Hei Shi, who punched this punch, didn't stop, but immediately dodged to the right.

"boom!"

I saw the earth split in two, and it was human machine No. 18 who fell from the sky and cut it down with a sword.

"Very good." Hei Shi dodged the knife and breathed a sigh of relief.

The man-machines in the arena have such a constant opening routine, such as man-machine No. 18 - he will immediately swing five super-wide-range sword slashes in your direction at the end of the countdown, allowing you to avoid Unavoidable, you can only choose to eliminate the sword energy first, and then take advantage of the moment you eliminate the sword energy, rush to the sky, and then lock the enemy's head and draw the knife to chop it off.

Hei Shi died no less than [-] or [-] times under this set of combos.

No way, he was basically taken away by this set when he was weak, even if he became stronger later, this set of combos is not so easy to dodge, but really requires some luck.

If Hei Shi did not choose to dodge after eliminating the sword qi, but resisted the knife that fell from the sky, then there would be only one end - the whole person would be cut in two by the knife.

Even if he has armed color.

But it's useless, the setting mechanism of Human-Machine No. 18 is like this.

So you can only hide, and you have to be fast, even if you are half a second slow.

After performing this set of combos, Human-Machine No. 18 will be more settled—his strength will be reduced to that of a normal-strength swordsman, and he will not be able to launch extremely powerful moves like before, and because his body is relatively fragile The reason is that as long as you hit a vital point head-on when you are hacked, you will fall to the ground.
