Alabasta Palace.
"It's been a long time since we last met, Dawn. You've grown so big in the blink of an eye." Cobra was very surprised to see Dawn's visit.
In Cobra's eyes, Dawn had changed a lot. He was now over two meters tall, with broad shoulders, and sharp eyes that carried a strong sense of oppression.
There is a hint of maturity on his pretty face, and his every move reveals an indomitable spirit.
When he discussed cooperation with him before, he knew that this young man was extraordinary, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
Of course he knows everything that happened in the East China Sea. Now he has become the leader of the younger generation of the navy, Cobra said with emotion.
"When your father talked to me on the phone, he always complained that you didn't have time to go back, and your mother missed you too." Cobra looked at Dawn and teased.
"I'll be back soon. I'll be back soon."
Dawn couldn't help but scratch his head and smile awkwardly when he heard Cobra's words.
Dawn, who often called home, was naturally complained by Luo Funa, and he also received the love of Luo Funa, his mother, over the years.
"By the way, Uncle Cobra, I came here this time to ask if there are any remote islands nearby?"
"There are quite a few remote islands nearby, but most of them are not recorded on the map. If you want, I'll have someone give you a copy." Cobra thought for a moment and said.
Having achieved his goal, Dawn started chatting with Cobra, mainly to learn about the trade between the two countries over the years.
Talking about Cobra, the topic became more and more popular. It seemed that trade had indeed brought prosperity to Alabasta, a country in the desert.
During the period, Dawn also met the little Weiwei. Looking at the pink and tender little loli in front of him, Dawn also experienced the feeling of being an older brother.
After having a meal at the Alabasta Palace, Dawn hurriedly said goodbye to Cobra. He couldn't wait to verify those islands.
..........
Time passed by unknowingly, especially on the sea.
The remote deserted island looks like an amusement park. Various leisure buildings are built on the island, but there is no human habitation.
"Is this the place you're looking for, Dawn?" baby-5 looked at the island in front of him and asked curiously.
"Ah, it took so long to finally find it." Dawn finally breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at the island in front of him. It seemed that Baron Carnival had finally reached this island and built these buildings.
"Welcome, welcome. This is a great place for a relaxing vacation." The Carnival Baron appeared exaggeratedly and greeted Dawn with a bit of humor.
"What should we do now?" Baby-5 turned around and asked the funny old man in front of her.
In response to baby-5's question, Dawn smiled and said, "Of course I will."
After saying this, Dawn suddenly disappeared from the boat.
“Boom! Snap! Snap! Snap!!”
The Carnival Baron, who was knocked away by Dawn's punch, kept crashing into trees.
Seeing this scene, Baron Carnival's subordinates rushed up angrily.
Dawn twisted his neck, exhaled, and faced the minions rushing towards him with just a snap of his fingers. All of them were then riddled with holes by the rain falling from the sky.
But the strange thing is that they did not have corpses but turned into plant-like appearances.
The carnival baron who was knocked flying couldn't help but go crazy when he saw this scene. He picked up the bow and arrow and started shooting. A large number of arrows rained down like an overwhelming force.
But Dawn did not dodge at all. He just snapped his fingers, and countless bullets appeared and rushed towards the rain of arrows.
"Damn it, why, why did you attack me and my companions!!" The Carnival Baron muttered in a low voice, and then went crazy.
"Boom boom boom!!"
On the island, a huge earthworm-like cylinder appeared from the island, and then began to scatter and transformed into more arrows that attacked Dawn like a rain of arrows covering the sky and the sun.
"Resist the halo!"
Facing the thousands of arrows, Dawn simply snapped his fingers and layers of translucent walls appeared around him, bouncing away the countless arrows.
boom!
Dawn disappeared from the spot in an instant under the rain of arrows like a dark cloud, and the violent air wave scattered the rubble on the ground.
The Carnival Baron's pupils shrank, and the enemy in the distance who was facing the rain of arrows disappeared.
By the time he reacted, a violent gust of air was blowing in the air and Dwayne's figure appeared only an inch in front of him.
The huge fist, filled with domineering power, slammed towards the Carnival Baron's chest!
"boom!"
A crisp sound of a huge force hitting a human body was heard, and a whine came out of the body of the Carnival Baron.
The Carnival Baron was hit so hard that his body was bent into a "V" shape, and his bones were broken with a crackling sound inside his body.
By the time they arrived beside the Carnival Baron, he was already breathing in but not out.
The Ouroboros at the side flashed out, its tail swinging continuously, and it looked at the little flower on the shoulder of the Carnival Baron with desire.
Seeing this, Dawn couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was really worried that this thing would be useless, and all his efforts would be wasted. Although he also dealt with a lot of pirates...
The flower named Lily Carnation seemed to sense the danger and wanted to transform into its original form to fight back, but the inky giant snake leaped up and swallowed the small flower into its stomach.
Afterwards, Ouroboros began to get agitated, just like the last time its abilities were upgraded.
Dawn walked to the warship and explained the situation to the soldiers, then found an open place and waited.
The snake's body wrapped around Dawn, and just like the last time the halo was upgraded, Dawn gradually fell into a deep sleep.
Chapter 148 Transformation
This transformation seemed to take a little longer, and this time, Dawn could clearly feel the feedback from the Ouroboros while being wrapped in the snake's body.
By the time Dawn came out of the snake's body, it was already dark.
"Master, Master." A neutral voice sounded from above.
Dawn turned his head and found that the big snake that was originally wrapped around him gradually became smaller and then came to Dawn's shoulder.
"Are you conscious?"
Dawn raised his brows. He didn't expect Ouroboros to become a conscious soul creation, and he was able to connect with his spirit, as if he had an extra clone.
"Yes Master, I transformed after I devoured that flower."
"Then what abilities do you have? Can you make a contract?" Dawn raised his eyebrows as he looked at the little snake with a little ink on its body.
"Of course, and I can also help my master develop his abilities." The inky little snake shook its tail with a proud look on its face.
Although it was a snake, Dawn could see the other party's pride.
After thinking about it, Dawn decided to name the other party Ouroboros, because the original meaning of this name is "Ouroboros".
Although Ouroboros complained that the name was poor and could only be copied, this name is indeed very appropriate.
After communicating with Ouroboros, Dawn learned a lot, such as that it was the product of Dawn's soul and the fruit, and that it could understand the fruit in detail and help develop it.
Essentially, Ouroboros is also an ability that Dawn has mastered.
But Ouroboros is closer to the fruit in terms of level, so it can understand it more clearly.
For example, when it comes to making an air shield, Dawn can use it naturally by instinct.
But after developing Ouroboros, because it is made up of part of Dawn's soul and part of the fruit, Xiao Wu can see the operation process of the ability.
This is good news for Dawn. Ouroboros is now like a machine that can analyze abilities and can help Dawn understand them.
And this machine is alive! The operating mode is Dawn's way of thinking, so there is no such thing as not understanding it.
This means that he will be able to master his abilities more clearly in the future with Ouroboros, rather than relying solely on instinct to develop his abilities.
At the same time, the strength of Ouroboros also means that his own abilities are becoming stronger!
This can be seen from the fact that all of Dawn's skills have undergone another transformation, which means that as Ouroboros becomes stronger, Dawn's abilities are developed more deeply.
Not only that, as the half body, Ouroboros can also use some of Dawn's abilities without consuming Dawn's physical strength!
"By the way, why did my "attribute points" disappear later?"
Dawn thought about it and asked this question. Dawn discovered this very early on and initially thought it was because his opponent was not strong enough or had no talent.
But during the battle of the East China Sea, he did not receive any "attribute points". Only then did he realize this problem. After all, among so many people, even if they are not strong, there must be some people with special talents.
“That is the feedback of the power I devoured. Before, I could only extract special power feedback. Now that the master has become stronger, the single “attribute point” feedback is ineffective, so I gathered all the power and fed it back.” Ouroboros explained.
"That is to say, if there are stronger people, they can still be drawn?" Dawn asked.
“Yes, some beings with extraordinary talents can obtain it, but their numbers are too rare,” Ouroboros replied.
Hearing this, Dawn nodded. Before, when his level was low, he could become stronger with just a little special feedback energy, but now he needed to accumulate experience to level up.
Speaking of the characteristics of Ouroboros, they are somewhat different from those of the Thundercloud Zeus products created by Big Mom.
The one made by Big Mom is more like being separated, while Dawn's is more like developing half of the body's properties, and the exchange of information can prove this.
Otherwise, words like attribute points, which only he understood, would not appear in Ouroboros's mouth.
"Devil fruits are truly magical..." Dawn couldn't help but sigh.
"By the way, what is the nature of my fruit ability?" Dawn has always been curious about the ability of the mutated fruit he swallowed.
"According to the master's thinking mode, it should be halo and plunder.
But the aura part is a little hard to describe, it's a bit like some kind of law that the master has read in a novel."
Nodding, Dawn had his own guesses about this. As for plundering...
Thinking of this, Dawn remembered Blackbeard's multiple abilities...
"You can try, but I'm not sure if you can get another ability." Ouroboros, who is connected to Dawn's clone at the consciousness level, naturally knows what Dawn is thinking.
"By the way... I've made a fruit in Xihai before. I don't know if it's the fruit of Jiancheng. If I have time to go back to the headquarters to find the picture book..."
Touching his chin, Dawn suddenly remembered that he still had a fruit in his hand, but he had forgotten it because of too many things to do. If he hadn't thought of the experiment today, he might not have remembered it...
Dawn returned to his bedroom on the ship, opened the drawer, picked up one of the wooden boxes and opened it. After looking at the fruit inside, he locked it again.
Now that the development of the contract halo has been completed, and his own strength has been greatly improved after receiving feedback from Ouroboros, he urgently needs a battle to hone himself.
As for the candidate, the defeated Moriah is Dawn's first choice, and the opponent's hatred towards Kaido can also be utilized, which is very suitable for Dawn's layout.
As for Moriah's whereabouts? Moriah, who lost all his companions after the battle with Kaido, chose to build the Thriller Bark for revenge.
