Pirate: Reincarnated as a Black Charcoal Orochi

Taking advantage of the golden opportunity at night, Orochi devoted all his energy to the ability to control the fluttering fruit.

Under the incredible power of this Devil Fruit, which can be said to be undoubtedly one of the pinnacles of the Superman system.

Whether in human form or Yamata no Orochi form, the Orochi, which has no ability to fly at all, can still roam freely under the moonlit night sky like a master.

It has to be said that this feeling of conquering the sky at will is one of the few pastimes that can make Orochi feel happy.

As for the snake whose gourmet cells are currently in its body and have undergone its first transformation, it is a terrifying physical exertion.

The speed of movement that could originally be described as floating is getting faster and faster visibly to the naked eye.

As the altitude increased, the big snake broke through the interception of several huge clouds without any hindrance.

Cumulus clouds at an altitude of 2000 meters, altocumulus clouds at an altitude of 3500 meters, and even cirrocumulus clouds at an altitude of 5000 meters did not cause any trouble.

It's like these clouds, which are at least 500 meters thick, have no resistance at all.

They were left behind by the straight-rising snake and broke through easily.

Although the current Orochi has not released the Food Demon to wrap around his body, these clouds full of tiny water droplets and ice crystals actually make the current Orochi, a Devil Fruit user, quite uncomfortable.

However, protected by the airflow brought by high-speed movement, these clouds did not actually have too much contact with the snake's body surface.

This will not let the big snake feel powerless, and naturally there is no risk of sudden power failure at high altitude.

After all, for the ability users in this world, even if everyone says that the weakness of the ability users comes from the "curse of the sea".

But the liquid that can make a person with abilities lose their power is not just ordinary sea water.

Regarding this point, it is as if nature has made the best footnote to the theory of water cycle in the planet.

According to this theory, which is true, all the water on this planet once continued to repeat the movement process over and over again under the influence of solar radiation and planetary gravity.

In other words, all water once existed as a part of the sea at some time, as "past sea water".

It has nothing to do with the salt used to distinguish salty water in ordinary people's minds. The seas in this world generally contain an unknown substance called "pyrobrpin" by Sky Island residents, or an unknown substance called "horny particles".

This kind of thing is also currently known to mankind and constitutes the most basic element of Hailou Stone.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is this unknown substance, whose mystery has not been unveiled by humans so far, that has created many magnificent things on this sea that cannot be imagined with the limits of human imagination. scene.

And it is precisely because the "horny particles" that make up the sea floor stone have penetrated all the water bodies on this planet over a long period of time that most of the water bodies in this world have considerable effects on Devil Fruit ability users. level of restraint.

Judging from Orochi's own experience, except for the sea floor stone, which is known as the "crystal of the sea".

As long as there is enough liquid for two-thirds of the esper's body surface to be immersed in it, then even ordinary plain water, which does not have that obvious effect, can make the esper temporarily lose his power.

Therefore, for those with abilities, even when taking a bath, most of the time they can only use a shower with a small water consumption.

Occasionally wanting to soak in a hot spring is like betting on whether an enemy will take advantage of this opportunity to sneak up on you.

There used to be many people with abilities who only obtained a Devil Fruit by chance and dared to venture into the sea relying on hearsay knowledge.

It is because they are too superstitious about the so-called "curse of the sea" that they have ignored that Danshui also has a restraining effect on people with abilities.

Then they were defeated one by one by the navy, which was familiar with the properties of Devil Fruit and could rely on a sound system to pass this knowledge down from generation to generation.

It's just that simple knowledge like this will not be regarded as the exclusive secret book of any force in the future.

As the times become more and more violent, powerful forces will inevitably become the objects of people's pursuit.

Compared with the extremely demanding talent requirements for students, there are also physical skills and swordsmanship that need to be practiced in units of 10 years.

In society and even with the development and progress of science and technology, the art of musketry has gradually spread from the navy in recent years.

Devil fruit abilities are undoubtedly very convenient and fast for improving strength.

Even though this fruit would make it difficult for people to live in a world where the ocean occupies more than [-]% of the planet's surface, the violent sea is a dangerous place that only a few strong people can treat as a smooth road.

Except for minority groups such as the fishmen and mermaids, for most intelligent creatures, falling into the sea is a matter of narrow escape. Even if the probability is increased to [-]%, it is nothing more than a trivial matter. .

Although the development of devil fruit abilities is also a test for the talent and talent of the ability user.

However, this kind of devil fruit has no threshold. There is no entry requirement except to obtain the devil fruit. The method of use is simple and unpretentious. As long as you eat it, you can use all kinds of strange abilities. The devil fruit will definitely become The mainstream of the future sea.

Compared with various physical skills and equipment techniques that place too much emphasis on the body's innate qualities, the devil fruit that can give the original five-body ability user the power to defeat the soldiers who have been struggling for more than ten years in one fell swoop is undoubtedly the most cost-effective in this sea. The highest source of power.

With the passage of time, Devil Fruit will no longer be regarded as a rare ornament stored in a glass box, as a foil to show the owner's wealth and authority to guests.

Rather, it is a kind of hard currency that can indeed be converted into a necessity for living stably in the future era: "power".

At least in the future that Orochi knows, the number of Devil Fruit users will not be as rare as in the current sea.

For example, "One Piece", "Pluto", "Red Earl", "Black Arms", "Iron Fist" and other physical fitness experts who can cross the sea with their physical fitness far superior to steel, as well as their ultimate domineering attainments, will become more and more powerful. rare.

At most, "Red Hair" and "Eagle Eye", two great swordsmen with rare strength in history, can cross the threshold of gold medal players.

But those who compete on the same level as them are people such as "Hundred Beasts", "Big Mom", "Akainu", "Ao Pheasant", "Kizaru", and even the older generation "White". Beard" and "Buddha's Warring States" are also world-famous ability users.

Under the influence of these people's example, Devil Fruit will undoubtedly become the mainstream in the future "Great Pirate Era".

Even among the "supernovas" who made their debut on the world stage more than 11 years later, only 2 of the 9 were arrogant mortals. The remaining [-], including the "Straw Hat Boys", all followed the trend of the times. Devil fruit users.

And as long as there are enough people with Devil Fruit abilities, the speed of information dissemination will be fast enough in the future.

This kind of little knowledge about devil fruits should soon be learned by well-informed novice ability users everywhere.

But it is precisely because the great pirates who came from the "Rocks Pirates" in the past have mastered many secrets that can help improve their strength.

The related news industry, which is dominated by "big news", has overtly and covertly disclosed these precious knowledge that were firmly controlled by the world government in the past to people who had no chance to do so through the propaganda channels of various newspapers and magazines. Ordinary people.

Combined with various reasons, this will make the pirate power in the future expand rapidly and become increasingly difficult to contain.

However, these are just idle remarks, and they are just the thoughts that Orochi emanated during the boring process of ascent.

The clouds surrounding the big snake are just ordinary clouds.

The water droplets are still in a suspended state and have not grown to the point where even the water vapor around them cannot support them.

In this way, even if they contain "horny particles" that are the natural enemies of ability users, if they are only touched in a small area within a very short period of time, they will not cause any hindrance to the ability user.

At least the big snake can simply rely on the barrier naturally formed by the airflow outside the body when flying at high speed, and break through it with the sudden advance of a pig.

But the clouds that the big snake will face next are no longer these clouds composed of pure water vapor.

Instead, it floats stably at about 7000 meters above the planet due to global air currents. Both its shape and size maintain a stability that makes it difficult to believe that it is a cloud.A super giant cloud named "White Sea".

'Well, it's almost time. '

Faced with this mysterious "sea cloud" whose composition is basically the same as the "Qinghai" sea water mentioned by the Sky Island people, no matter how confident the snake is in its own speed, it is still necessary to add an insurance policy.

There was no movement from the big snake, and naturally countless huge masses stacked with dark scales continued to proliferate from the short body of the big snake, which was just above the average line of the sea.

In almost the blink of an eye, the figure of the Wano Palace Priest who was supposed to be here disappeared without a trace.

Instead, there were eight super-giant sea kings that were almost the same size as those wandering outside the Mermaid Island located in the [-]-meter-deep sea. Their huge size alone was enough to overturn a smaller island. The eight-tailed snake god.

The appearance of this snake god, now revered by the entire Wano Country, was not accompanied by a neighing sound that informed the world.

With just a subtle twitch of the muscles in his eyebrows, the snake god's sixteen hazy yellow eyes, which were so enlarged that they could no longer be described as balls or lanterns, were immediately covered by a transparent Tough eyelids protect.

And at the next moment when the body surface of the big snake is the most fragile, the eyeballs, which would be scratched by the swordsman if they were to relax even a little bit, were properly protected.

The big snake did not slow down at all in the process of releasing the food demon.

In this way, with a size and posture that could stir up thousands of huge waves, it suddenly crashed into the thousand-meter-thick "White Sea" clouds.

If such a violent impact were placed on "Qinghai", it would even be enough to flatten nearly half of the land of a superpower like Alabasta. Naturally, it would not be as silent as the waves blending into the waves. .

Perhaps people on the ground wouldn't notice much movement... In fact, there was indeed no sound.

But at the moment when the huge snake god broke through the "White Sea", this huge sea cloud that had existed for an unknown number of years was like a piece of dry and brittle tissue, without any struggle under the violent impact. The ground was torn apart.

Even among the sixteen little snakes where the big snake was properly protected, you can clearly see many strange-looking empty fish that unfortunately fell from their original living place due to their habitat being destroyed by the passing Yamato-no-Orochi. .

These random-looking creatures are just like the Neptunes in the deep sea, and they have a body size that can be said to be huge compared to ordinary people.

But unlike the plump and muscular Neptune species, these empty fish living in the Kukai waters are basically superficial. Just like the tricks Mr. Fukuroju used to avoid the sea water in the past, their bodies are also filled with Expanded airbag structure.

Therefore, even if their habitat is destroyed by a big snake, except for a few idiots who are frightened and fall directly into Qinghai, most of these empty fish can still inflate their bodies to the limit with one breath and float like hot air balloons. Continue living on the next sea cloud.

However, although the big snake will not deliberately destroy the habitats of these poor "little guys", it is not the kind of animal protectionist who is kind and wealthy enough to share food with them.

Just after the "White Sea" sea clouds that happened to float over Wano Country were completely torn apart by Orochi's actions, Orochi's eight huge heads were like a shield machine that cracked mountains and cracked rocks as if they were treading flat ground. , shuttled repeatedly among the torn sea clouds.

But even after this destructive search, Orochi still saw no trace of the animal he was looking for.

'It seems that at least in this sea cloud, there are no 'express shrimps' cultivated by the islanders for the convenience of travel. '

It would be better to say that the big snake did not even see animals that were slightly similar to shrimps. Except for the octopus that looked like a shell and the hairtail fish with multiple fin spines, this sea cloud did not leave any other creatures passing through it. trace.

'Yes, after all, Wano is a country located in the second half of the Grand Line.

It's not too close to the regular route to Sky Island, the 'Western Summit', and the unconventional 'Sky Current'. '

After all, it is a global route that, together with the Red Earth Continent, divides the entire planet's surface into four seas.

Although it is often collectively referred to as the Grand Line, the distance between the front and rear sections is so great that ordinary people can hardly imagine it.

'Judging from the situation on Gaya Island, island clouds fused with 'horny particles' generally do not move easily.

It seems that I was too naive to think that I could find an empty island so easily in the sky above Wano Country. '

Seeing this situation, I was a little worried that with my current strength, when I broke through the upper "White Sea", I would also tear apart the empty island I wanted to find, and the big snake could be regarded as letting go of a hanging... Heart comes.

Then he flicked the eight snake tails that ended in sword-like shapes, and continued to break through to the upper realm without slowing down.

For Orochi, who has been depressed in Wano Country for a long time these days, this is a rare opportunity to fly at full strength.

Even so, he is not worthy of the Ichitan family's deployment members who stayed in Wano.

But for a while, those opponents who are eyeing Wano Country should not be able to draw manpower from the turbulent sea, let alone immediately organize a fleet capable of attacking Wano Country.

And this happened to give the big snake a good opportunity to move freely.

It was rare to get out, and Orochi didn't expect to find the sky island Bika that no longer existed after more than twenty years so soon.

As for the natural-type thunder fruit hidden somewhere in Bika, Orochi is quite aware of it, so there is no need to rush.

'Speaking of which, although I have sailed in the sky on Mr. Golden Lion's ship before, I have never seen the scenery of the 'White Sea'.

Just in time, the sun is almost coming out.

Next, let me look at the beautiful scene of sunrise on the sea above the sky. '
