One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

"Sometimes I'm curious, are you really a Devil Fruit user?"

Seeing that the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit had no effect, Rocks stopped attacking and instead raised his doubts.

Encircled by chaos flames, An slowly descended from the sky and answered the other party's question.

"I am indeed a Devil Fruit user, but I'm a little different from other users."

An did not lie, she did eat the Devil Fruit, even if the fruit did not exist in this world, she still ate the Devil Fruit, so it's not wrong to say that she is a user.

"Hahahaha, if I didn't know that you could transform like an animal, I would have thought that a new race had appeared in the sea." Rocks replied without comment.

Accurately catching the details of the other party's words, An asked directly: "New race? Is there any relationship between the races in the sea and Devil Fruits?"

After learning from Saint Satan that the previous owner of the Dark-Dark Fruit was Rocks and that he might be alive in Blackbeard's body, An had the intention of looking for him.

Revenge for Ace is one aspect.

On the other hand, if the Dark-Dark Fruit can preserve Rocks' consciousness, then when Rocks ate the Dark-Dark Fruit, did he also retain the consciousness of the previous generation of the Dark-Dark Fruit owner?

According to this inference, is it possible that the owner of the Dark-Dark Fruit can inherit the complete world history, or even the origin of the Devil Fruit?

An got the secret of the Devil Fruit from the Sea King and hid it in Raftel. It might be better to know the inside story in advance, and the living always know more than the dead, and even more clearly.

Even if there is no gain from Rocks, An can go to Raftel to find the answer.

Faced with An's repeated questioning, Rocks did not answer, but instead activated the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit to suck the body of Peter Saint from Dragon's side.

"I didn't see it clearly just now. I didn't expect you to actually kill this old guy. It seems that your strength is no less than mine at my peak."

Looking at the body of Saint Pitt, Rocks asked an irrelevant question, or rather, it was not a question that he, the former pirate overlord, should ask.

"Kid, why do you want to overthrow the world government and the rule of the Celestial Dragons?"

Although it was a bit strange that Rocks was not like what Saint Satan and Uncle Bogart said, but An still answered the question honestly.

"To realize my justice, create a fair world, so that everyone can live a stable and peaceful life."

Rocks continued to ask: "What about you?"

"Me?" An was suddenly asked. Since she set the goal of changing the world and talked about her dreams with Ace, Luffy and Sabo on the rooftop of the villa under the moonlight, she seemed to have never thought about this question.

Suddenly, An recalled the question she was thinking about when she first came to this world and sat alone on the beach.

What kind of life should I spend?

A life of mediocrity and inaction?

Is it to climb the mountain that ordinary people can't climb?

Or to turn into a fire to light up the darkness and illuminate the world?

Suddenly, An seemed to think of something and smiled sweetly.

What's the point of tangling about the meaning of life? No matter what kind of achievements you achieve, the scenery along the way is the most valuable.

Compared with the achievements engraved on the tombstone after death, being able to make yourself happy and satisfied while alive and being worthy of your heart is the real value of life.

What kind of achievements will last for thousands of years, what kind of eternal reputation, is not as good as following your own heart.

"If this war is over, if I am still alive, then I want to be an ordinary mother."

"Take care of the children, plant flowers, see the sea, eat some delicious food, and live a quiet and warm life with my brothers. This is what I want."

Hahahaha!

When An said what he thought, Rocks was stunned for a while, and then laughed again and again.

"I never thought that a guy as strong as you would dream of being an ordinary mother. It's incredible."

"Have you ever thought about becoming the king of the world?"

"With your strength, as long as you are willing, it will be easy to become the new king of the world after defeating the Celestial Dragons."

An refused straightforwardly.

"No!"

"Huh?"

Looking at the other party's refusal without hesitation, Rocks fell silent.

"Becoming the king of the world means you have everything, all your ideas will come true, and the people related to you will also become high and mighty rulers."

"No need to say more, I have already said that no matter how great the achievements are, no matter how long it takes for a good reputation to last, it is not as good as my willingness."

"Also, don't underestimate me. I am determined to change the world. Don't confuse me with those dirty ambitious people."

"I am Monkey D. An!!

At this point, a magnificent and heavy domineering aura rushed out, and the powerful spirit like a tsunami in the sea rushed straight to the sky, dispersing the sea of ​​clouds in the sky.

The grand, majestic, and domineering aura spread in all directions like the mighty power of heaven, impacting the will of Rocks and Dragon.

"This level of domineering aura..."

"Hahahaha, how many years have you been the strongest and strangest guy I have ever seen. Since you want to know the secret of the devil fruit, I will tell you. "

"Huh? Don't we have to fight? "Pinching his chin, An spoke in surprise.

"There's no need to fight. I've experienced too many battles, and with this guy's strength, even if I control my body, I'm no match for you."

"In addition, you should have guessed that I'm just a wisp of consciousness living in the devil fruit, and I can't really be reborn. When this kid can awaken the devil fruit, I will naturally be swallowed by him."

"In addition, I hope you will agree to one request of mine, that is, to let this guy go."

"Without the help of his partners and me, this guy can't make any waves with his strength. At the same time, I want to see what kind of changes will happen to this sea in the future."

Rocks gave his explanation.

After thinking for a while, although An felt that the other party was acting strange, he still nodded in agreement.

According to the original work, even without himself, Blackbeard would definitely be defeated by Luffy, so it would be no problem to let him live for a while longer.

Seeing that the other party agreed, Rocks no longer concealed and told everything he had inherited.

"1,000 years ago, the world was still in a barren period. The islands were several continents connected together, and there were far fewer races than there are now."

"Although there were not many races at that time, wars were not uncommon. Different races fought each other just to fight for the resources they needed for survival."

"However, all this changed on an extremely ordinary morning."

"That day, three huge silver-white spaceships fell from the sky, and several guys with wings on their backs, similar to humans, walked out of them. Later, everyone learned that they were moon people living on the moon. They came here this time because the resources on the moon were exhausted and they could no longer survive, and they planned to establish a new country here."

"It was also from this day that the world changed dramatically."

...

(Here, everyone must have doubts about Rocks being so easy to talk to, and I will give an explanation later.)
