Chapter 316 Thunder Pond
Vic was a little speechless, but he had to continue digging. This was the purpose of his coming here this time.
The tunnel that Vic dug was not very big. He just pushed out the island cloud dug out of the tunnel. He dug through the entire inverted cone-shaped land along the boundary between the land and the island cloud.
But the staff was still pointing downwards, which made Vic doubt. Was the direction pointed by the staff really the Thunder Fruit?
When Vic arrived at the tip of the cone on land, he found that it was not filled with island clouds, and there was a circular hole just below the tip of the cone.
Vic jumped directly down and landed safely not too deep. However, he felt numbness in his body after landing, but the feeling disappeared after a second. He was not hurt.
But soon, he felt numbness again, and knowing that this was cyclical, Vic looked carefully at this underground space.
Except for a hole on the top, all other places are closed. Electric flashes will appear regularly under his feet, and he will feel his body being electrocuted.
Looking around again, he found that he was standing in a bowl-like vessel with a diameter of about ten meters, and the bowl was placed in the center of the island cloud space.
The bowl was made of some kind of stone that Vic couldn't recognize. It wasn't round and smooth, nor did it look like the material of historical texts.
Looking down at his feet, he saw a white fruit with lightning symbols and spiral patterns all over its surface. The fruit was moving left and right in the big bowl under the occasional lightning released by a ring-shaped thunder drum with magatama printed on it. Seeing these two things, Vic finally showed a smile.
"The Thunder Fruit and the Thunder Drum actually appeared at the same time. Could this stone bowl be the legendary Thunder Pool? Could it be that the Thunder Fruit will appear here regularly? How is this possible?"
Vic thought about the journey of digging along the way and felt that the thunder fruit was not placed here by humans.
If it was really placed there by humans, then the underground space must have been arranged first to form a huge funnel, and then someone placed a small piece of land on the island cloud to block the funnel and hide the place again!
But this idea was too incredible, so Vic directly ruled it out. Moreover, it was not only the thunder drum that could discharge lightning, but the stone bowl would also release lightning from time to time. This was very obvious and it was not just Vic's blind association.
Vic put the staff that was about to get closer to the Thunder Fruit into the dimensional space, then bent down and picked up the Thunder Fruit.
The Thunder Drum also floated up by itself, floating in the air not far from the Thunder Fruit. The Thunder Drum was like a companion item of the Thunder Fruit, so Vic put the Thunder Drum into the space again, and he didn't need to eat it.
He hasn't figured out how to use the Thunder Drum yet, and Vic is unwilling to have it inserted on his back like Enel, but the increase in ability caused by the Thunder Drum cannot be underestimated, and Vic doesn't want to give it up.
"After so many twists and turns! I finally got you. I didn't expect you to have a home base. Your treatment is completely different from those devil fruits that wander around. Hahaha!"
Victor looked at the Thunder Fruit in his hand, and the mood that had been suppressed for so long finally felt relieved. Although it took some extra time, the result was still perfect. If anyone wanted to blame anyone, it could only be Oda, the one who dug the trap and didn't explain anything clearly.
After muttering a few words, Vic brought the Thunder Fruit directly to his mouth and took a bite, then ate the entire Thunder Fruit with an expressionless face. He did not feel the unpalatable taste, not because the fruit was fake, but because Vic used the ability of life restoration to cut off the neural pathways that transmit taste to the brain. There is only an efferent body but no receiving body, so you can't feel it.
As soon as he ate the Thunder Fruit, Vic felt something different about his body. With just a command in his mind, his physical body could be transformed into an energy body of thunder and lightning.
Moreover, he can convert his own power into lightning attacks. The intensity is naturally related to his own strength. Now that Vic is using the ability of the Thunder Fruit, his most ordinary attack can surpass Enel's super move. They are completely on a different level.
This also reminded Vic of a famous saying in his previous life: The Tremor-Tremor Fruit only has the power to destroy the world in the hands of Whitebeard, but in the hands of ordinary people it can only create an aftershock. The top-level fruit and the top-level strength complement each other.
Of course! Some people can reach the top even without fruit abilities.
After Vic adapted to the ability of the Thunder Fruit for a while, he did not launch an attack. However, he could feel the terrifying attack power, which was completely different from that of Eneel, who could not be killed by electricity.
If Sanzhi asked Vic to light his cigarette, Vic might even light another stick of incense for him, but he would most likely help him awaken his physical potential in advance.
If the magma fruit's strong attack power comes from burning the enemy with high temperature, which can be considered physical damage, then the thunder fruit's super strong attack power is to destroy the cell vitality in the enemy's body, which is a spell damage that destroys vitality.
The attack power of both fruits is very strong, but the emphasis is different. If the attack is added with domineering, it will be different again. If you really want to see who is stronger and who is weaker, you can only know after a fight!
After experiencing the new ability, Vic turned into a flash of lightning and left the thunder pool space. After reaching the edge of the cave, he turned into a human form again.
I looked up at the bottom of the conical land above my head and found that there was a big gap between the passage I came down and the island cloud.
This is because this piece of land is not purely cone-shaped. If you take it out and look at it from a distance, it is indeed cone-shaped, but when you get closer, you will find that it is full of potholes and the mountain texture looks like it has burrs.
On the other side, a small winding passage was formed between the burrs. Vic used his observation Haki to sense it and found that the end of this small passage was not far from the ground of Bika.
"Could it be that Enel came down from here? But how could he find this passage? After all, the passage has not yet reached the ground, otherwise it would have been discovered long ago. Or did Enel want to dig a tunnel to steal things from the temple and accidentally chose that place? That's why he found the hole at the bottom?"
Vic's guess was basically correct. Enel did want to go to the temple to steal things to change his fate, because the ability shown by Urouge made him yearn for it.
However, he didn't dig very deep before his feet slipped and he fell into this small passage. If the winding passage hadn't stopped him, the height of 200 meters would have been enough to kill him.
After that, he followed the passage to the entrance of the cave, and jumped down out of curiosity. The process of jumping was similar to Vic's experience, but because of his ordinary people's reasons, he was electrocuted and suffered a lot of pain.
He didn't know what the devil fruit and the thunder drum were, but since they were buried so deep, he knew they were treasures. However, after putting away these two things, he found that he couldn't get up.
The height of this space is totally beyond the reach of ordinary people like him. Trapped in the space and hungry for three days, Enelu finally plucked up the courage to eat this strange-looking fruit.
So, Enel stood up, he changed his own destiny, destroyed the Bica that was full of bad memories, stole the design drawings of the motto in the temple, and saw the carvings on the wall, and he developed a yearning for the moon.
