Pirate Death Arrives.

This is the power of the awakened devil fruit.

Even though Luo Di did not use it deliberately, the power he released carried a sense of transcendence.

However, just that trace of awakened power still made the pirates feel extremely uncomfortable.

The soul seemed to be in chains.

And the owner of the chains was Luo Di.

"This power!"

Ashley, who was only five or six meters away from Luo Di, suddenly narrowed his eyes and took a step back almost subconsciously.

He felt a terrible force.

It gave him a palpitation.

At this time, Luo Di passed the pirates and slowly approached Ashley from the isolated path.

One step at a time, like a devil's pace.

There was no way, the pressure he put on Ashley was too great.

tread--

When the last step was taken, Luo Di was less than one meter away from Ashley.

He just looked at the other person quietly.

"Are you afraid of me?"

Ashley swallowed and tried to remain calm.

"No, no!"

Ah--

Luo Di chuckled and didn't ask any further questions.

"Don't you want to try out Armament Haki? I can help you!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Ashley's eyes lit up, and even the slight fear and vigilance towards Luo Di were temporarily suppressed.

"Hmm? What do you want me to pay?"

There is no free lunch in the world.

He firmly believed in one thing: everything has a price.

And Luo Di likes to deal with such smart people.

"In the future, how about you, along with the few people who escaped from Impel Down with you, serve me for the rest of your lives?"

Hear the words.

Ashley was silent for a moment, and the last bit of struggle and ambition in his heart was forcibly suppressed.

Finally, he nodded.

"Of course you can, but as for the other four people... my words don't count. Whether they want to join the Death Pirates is up to them!"

Among the five, Ashley seems to be the boss, but in fact, the status of the five is equal.

No one owes anyone anything, and no one has to listen to anyone else.

"Is that so?"

Luo Di nodded silently.

Of course, he wasn't worried at all about what the other party said.

Under his instructions, the "benefits" that Wald deliberately exposed were enough to make anyone tempted.

As long as you still have a heart to become stronger, as long as you still want to go further.

You won't refuse to join the Death Pirates!

And this is indeed the case.

Even Uranus, a stubborn and reckless man, is no exception.

As soon as Ashley joins the Death Pirates, he will immediately follow.

Similarly, List, who had always rejected the Death Pirates, was also tempted at this time.

Of course, this all has a premise, that is, what Wald said is true!

Next, it depends on what the God of Death Luo Di will do.

……

"Okay, then let's do as you say."

Having said that, Luo Di took another step forward.

Under the gaze of the people around him and Ashley's astonished eyes, he slowly raised his right hand.

In just a moment, a circle of light black air waves rolled up around him.

It just wrapped him and Ashley in the center.

Gollum—

Ashley's throat rolled and he couldn't help swallowing.

"What is this for?"

Luo Di raised the corner of his mouth and smiled evilly.

"Don't you want to learn Armament Haki? I'll teach you, but..."

At this point, his voice paused noticeably.

Ashley's heart began to lift, and he asked almost subconsciously.

"Just what?"

The smile on Luo Di’s face grew wider.

"It's just that the process might be a little painful!"

Next, we will discuss things related to the soul level.

Luo Di does not create something out of nothing.

In fact, Armament Haki is something that everyone has in their body.

The only difference is the more or less.

What Luo Di needs to do is to implant an "instinct" in their souls.

An 'instinct' that can activate and call upon the body's Armament Haki.

Make it seem like it’s innate.

However, the process might be bloody and the methods used might be violent.

By directly tearing apart a person's soul, forcibly implanting that 'instinct' into it.

You can imagine how painful this is.

It is no less than pulling out a person's tendons and bones.

"Are you sure there is only one...?"

Before Ashley could finish his words, he discovered to his horror that he couldn't move.

It's like being immobilized.

But for some reason, I felt a little bit light-headed.

There is also an illusion of out-of-body experience.

So weird!

He wanted to ask, but found that he couldn't speak.

At this time, Luo Di moved again.

He raised his right hand, palm facing down, and gently covered Ashley's head with it in front of him.

boom--

The moment the palm fell, Ashley felt a buzzing in his brain.

The whole world seemed to have lost its color, and everything was gray and white.

Then, another indescribable pain came over me.

He almost went into shock.

Sure enough, it hurts a lot!

The God of Death Luo Di did not lie to him.

But why is this time a little different from what Wald said?

Didn't we agree on one second?

Is this one second?

It felt like a whole century had passed for Ashley.

And it’s not over yet.

It’s torture. It’s so torturous.

If he didn't master Armament Haki in the end, he, he would go and fight that bastard Wald to the death!

Time slowly passed in endless pain.

"Disperse!"

Looking at Ashley who was twitching and foaming at the mouth, Luo Di felt particularly happy.

There is a saying that is really true.

Our own happiness is often built on the suffering of others.

Luo Di is in this state now.

boom--

And as Luo Di stopped.

The black air waves surrounding the two people gradually dissipated.

People outside can finally see what's going on inside.

However, the scene that came into view made the pirates feel a chill in their hearts.

I saw Luo Di standing there fine, but Ashley, who was originally in front of him, was lying on the ground for some reason.

The other party's condition is extremely bad.

His face was pale and bloodless, and his body was twitching unconsciously.

Looking closely at his face, his forehead was already covered with sweat, and his fairly handsome face was now wrinkled into a ball, looking particularly distorted and ugly.

From time to time, some white foam would come out of his mouth.

In the end what happened?

Seeing Ashley in such an embarrassing state, the pirates were simply terrified.

If the other party's chest had not been rising and falling slightly, they would almost subconsciously think that the other party had been killed by Luo Di.

However, even if Ashley was not dead, the other party's condition was creepy enough.
