Chapter 476 What Kind of King Do You Want to Be?

Lu Li felt that he truly understood the principle of awakening the animal-type fruit, and also knew how to tap into the power in the fruit.

But there is a problem here. He discovered that even though they are both mythical beasts, his Thunder God Fruit is decisively different from Kaido and Yamato's mythical beasts.

That is, the mythical beasts of Yamato and Kaido are essentially animal-type. Their awakening is a bit lame, and is of the same nature as the animal-type cat-cat fruit leopard form of the "toilet king" Rob Lucci two years later.

They are all about further strengthening basic physical fitness and super recovery ability, that is, the ability to do sit-ups.

After Rob Lucci was captured and beaten by Luffy, he sat up in full condition after a while. This is the power of the animal-type fruit after awakening.

The same goes for Kaido. Lu Li even suspected that in the original work, Teacher Kai was still able to stand up after taking Luffy's last punch, but Teacher Kai was tired and didn't want to get up.

As for sit-ups, we are all animal-type with a physical attribute over 120, so who can’t do it?
But this is not the ability Lu Li wants. After all, he has mastered a super recovery skill. Even if half of his body is blown off, he can still sit up and get back up.

The fire in Mr. Kai's mythical beast fruit ability and Yamato's ice, to put it bluntly, do not constitute their core combat power. They are only useful for bullying weak ones. After awakening, their most direct improvement is still the increase in physical fitness brought by the mythical beast fruit.

However, Luffy's fifth gear Sun God Nika form is different. In addition to attribute bonuses, it also has mechanisms. Not only that, the most important point is... it can interfere with reality.

Including the superhuman type like Doflamingo and Katakuri, they can also interfere with reality after awakening, but among the animal type, the only fruit ability that can interfere with reality after awakening seems to be Luffy's Nika.

In summary, Lu Li feels that the Animal Type is suitable for reckless men. It does not have so many bells and whistles. Even for the mythical beasts, usually there are only some fancy ability bonuses. In a duel between real masters, it is still the strong physical fitness and recovery ability of the Animal Type that counts.

If you think in this way, the mythical beast fruit of the divine system may really be a unique existence.

By analogy, some fruits only add a single ability, just like when you are playing a game and you equip a sword with +2 attack, some strong fruits can add +2 attack as well as +30% armor penetration and +2 magic damage.

Then, if you switch to a mythical beast species, you can add a whole host of abilities, and the numerical increase is not low at the same time.

When it comes to divine fruits like the Nika Fruit, it is different. While adding various powerful mechanism abilities, it can interfere with reality and comprehensively add attributes. It is a fruit ability that can be called a plug-in.

Lu Li had seen an analogy picture in the comment section of One Piece anime in his space before. Although it was a bit exaggerated, it was roughly the same feeling.

He tried to use a method similar to Yamato's drive power to dig deeper into the Thunder God Fruit, but found that he could not use the awakened power, so he suspected that his Thunder God Fruit was the same as the Nika Fruit, a fruit that was difficult to awaken but had explosive potential.

Once he can successfully awaken, his current combat power will undergo a qualitative change again.

Referring to Luffy's imaginative fighting style after Nika awakened, Lu Li felt that after the awakening of the Thunder God Fruit, perhaps everything around him could be turned into lightning, and he might be able to travel through the lightning.

Fortunately, he has roughly understood the principles of animal-type awakening. Next, he plans to refer to Luffy's Nika Fruit. As long as he figures out Luffy, he should be able to awaken the Thunder God Fruit naturally.

…………

Wano Country, on the edge of the sea, a martial arts training ground.

Luffy looked at Lu Li standing in front of him with excitement, "Brother Lu, I already know the basics of Haki, please teach me more powerful moves!"

Lu Li looked at Luffy, who was wrapped in the Supreme Collapse Belt but still full of energy, and felt puzzled.

Is it because the teaching staff of the Beast Cram School is too powerful, or is it that Luffy has an incredible comprehension? Unexpectedly, in just three days, Luffy has mastered the armament Haki and observation Haki.

And according to Quinn's description and his actual perception, Luffy's strength at this time is probably not inferior to the version in the original work who studied with Rayleigh two years later.

It's really that Rayleigh who misled the young people...

Luffy suffered a lot during his education in Usagi Prison, but it is obvious that he is the type who can easily gain insights in actual combat. Just look at the black light of armament color wrapped around his hands, which even has the rudiments of Ryuo, and you can tell that Luffy is also a genius.

"So anxious? Have you not yet finished learning all the techniques from Quinn's side?"

Lu Li looked at Luffy and felt that Luffy really needed to be taught a lesson. He could already see arrogance in Luffy's eyes.

It wasn't because he was lazy or because he was busy learning the awakening of the fruit from Teacher Yamato that he threw Luffy to the Usagi prison, but because he felt that that place was a good place for Luffy to lay the foundation, and Luffy didn't need to leave the mountain before he learned Ryuo.

But Luffy kept learning new moves and felt a little intoxicated by his rapid improvement in strength. In addition, he was anxious to learn more powerful skills to protect his companions in the future, so he directly targeted Lu Li.

As for why it wasn't Kaido, it was mainly because Luffy was not familiar with Kaido, and the impact Kaido had on his heart during the Battle of Marineford was not as great as Lu Li's killing of two admirals in a row.

Luffy had long coveted Lu Li's ability to freely control the Conqueror's Haki and the powerful force of using the Conqueror's Haki to entangle and attack, so after learning the Armament Haki and Observation Haki, he couldn't wait to find Lu Li.

"Because I think Brother Lu is stronger."

Luffy grinned.

"It seems that Quinn is too gentle with you, Luffy."

Lu Li shook his head and sighed, "This is also my fault. I asked him to take good care of you."

Luffy is really getting cocky. From the look of his expression, he actually feels that he has learned enough from Quinn and looks down on teacher Quinn.

Lu Li's expression became a little more serious. "If you want to learn under me, you must be prepared to die. Come on."

Luffy smiled cheerfully, "It's okay, I won't fall down here easily, after all..."

Lu Li felt a little uncomfortable after hearing what Luffy said. When he was a child, he felt very excited when he read comics from Luffy's first-person perspective, but at this moment, he felt that Luffy was too optimistic.

It seems that because of his intervention, Ace was rescued, and knowing that his companions were also safe, Luffy did not feel a deep sense of frustration, nor did he gain much inner growth.

Thinking of this, Lu Li decided to let Luffy experience firsthand the gap between himself and a truly strong person, so that Luffy could concentrate on his studies.

At this time, after Luffy's passionate shout, he rushed towards Lu Li, his fist wrapped in armed color, and punched Lu Li, "...I am the man who wants to become the Pirate King!"

Lu Li did not draw his sword, but first turned off the passive skill of the Soul Eater, then wrapped his hands with flowing cherry blossoms and surrounded them with domineering aura, and punched out.

At this moment, when the domineering power burst out, it seemed as if the sky and the earth changed color from Luffy's perspective, and he felt that his life was about to come to an end. The powerful deterrent force even made his punches become weak and powerless.

The next moment, Lu Li's fist hit Luffy in the face. With a loud bang, Luffy was knocked flying and hit the mountain wall.

In the smoke and dust, Luffy fell from the mountain wall with his eyes rolled back.

"What kind of king do you want to be?"

Lu Li looked at Luffy falling, and the sound spread in the training ground. Luffy rolled his eyes, twitched twice on the ground, and was unable to answer.

Lu Li waved his hand and said to a subordinate, "Send him back to Rabbit Don Prison and have Quinn train him hard for me. When his Ryuo and Observation Haki are mature, send him to me."

Luffy's growth rate is already very fast, but Lu Li is still not satisfied. After all, his time is limited, and there are explorers of the arcane space outside who are eyeing him covetously. He doesn't want Luffy to be poached.

After educating Luffy, Lu Li went to Onigashima for today's routine meeting.

These days, in addition to being busy studying the awakening of the fruit and formulating training plans for the Straw Hat Pirates, he is also preparing to obtain the ancient weapon Pluto.

Yesterday he used his ability to dive into the sea to take a look. Pluto was indeed under Wano Country. It was a magnificent warship as big as an island.

Fortunately, it was a ready-made ancient weapon, otherwise even if they had the blueprints, it would take a long time to make such a thing.

Lu Li used the identification function of the space to check and found that the structure of Pluto was complete, but this thing actually needed to be activated by the holder of the corresponding bloodline factor to exert its full power.

Fortunately, it was written in the space description that as a warship, even without the bloodline factor activated, it could still exert half of its power, but it still required energy to drive it.

The current energy reserves of Wano Country are still sufficient. If Pluto is used as a prop to defend the home, it is enough to launch a few rounds, which can be regarded as a deterrent trump card.

So Lu Li discussed with the people from the Beasts Pirates how to safely settle down the Country of Wano while breaking down the surrounding mountain walls to start the country.

"Mr. Lu, I know how important Pluto is to the current situation, but the pressure of the ocean currents is unbalanced, and with Wano Country's current fragile base, it is easy for it to collapse directly."

Quinn, after all, was a scientist by training, and he put forward his point of view, "If there is no reliable plan, I think it is better to focus on the king of heaven."

They have been ruling Wano Country successfully over the years, and their cadres are loved by the people. Any normal person would feel happy to be loved by the people. They don't want to destroy Wano Country because of Pluto.

"Don't worry about that. I have a solution."

As Lu Li spoke, he took out a devil fruit, which he had obtained when he tried to open a box last night while thinking of a countermeasure.

He killed the King of Evil in the prison of Impel Down at that time. Because his damage was too high, the opponent was killed by his true injuries before he could resist, so Lu Li did not notice whether the opponent had the ability of the devil fruit.

Anyway, in the original book, he couldn't tell whether the Fruit of the King of Evil Government was originally there or obtained by Blackbeard for him. Lu Li just opened the box with the mentality of giving it a try.

The bad news is that the dark gold level box only opened epic level items. The good news is that the epic level item is the Island Island Fruit among the devil fruits.

"The Island Fruit!?"

Quinn is a knowledgeable biologist who has also conducted bloodline factor experiments related to devil fruits with Vegapunk. Of course, he knows a lot about the fruit. "If it is this fruit, it can indeed guarantee the safety of Wano Country."

The ability of the Island-Island Fruit is to merge with the island. They only need to find a strong person in the group who has not eaten the fruit yet to eat the Island-Island Fruit and merge with the land of Wano Country. This will allow them to control the basic foundation of Wano Country and then stabilize Wano Country to avoid the risk of collapse.

No one asked Lu Li where the island fruits came from. The old cadres just thought that Lu Li was in control and everything was under control.

The new cadres simply felt that the legendary military advisor lived up to his reputation, and he had indeed already had a plan in mind when he proposed founding a country.

Lu Li naturally didn't know what everyone was thinking. He just wanted to quickly establish the Kingdom of Wano and have strategic deterrence after controlling Pluto. This way, he could go to Warhead Island to cause trouble without any scruples.

After the meeting, Lu Li walked out the door and saw Crocodile leaning against the wall smoking a cigar not far away.

"Hey, Scourge, this is different from what you agreed, right?"

Crocodile called out to Lu Li, "You said you could make me stronger."

Lu Li stopped and thought about what he had said about interesting things when they were on the boat before.

First, he can give Crocodile a chance to challenge Whitebeard, second, the Beasts Pirates will turn the world upside down, and it would be a pity not to watch this craze from a special seat, and third, he said there is a way to make Crocodile stronger.

As for his obsession with challenging Whitebeard, after the Battle of Marineford, Crocodile no longer had the desire to do so. After all, he felt that the Beasts Pirates were the new kings.

The second point he had been watching with great interest in the special seats: the Beasts Pirates were in possession of two great ancient weapons, and they were clearly an existence that could truly threaten the World Government and change the times.

Therefore, what he is most concerned about now is how Lu Li is going to make him stronger?

"I was so busy about this, I almost forgot about it."

Lu Li smiled and said, "Follow me."

He led the way, turning left and right on the ghost island, and soon brought Crocodile to a room.

"Scourge, what do you mean?"

When Crocodile saw the people in the room, he frowned and looked unfriendly.

"I thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure out why you didn't use Haki against Luffy. It wasn't until I had an idea yesterday and asked Ivankov that I figured it out."

Lu Li had a smile on his face that made Crocodile's veins pop out, "Are you afraid that his Haki will make his fruit ability ineffective?"

Ivankov looked at Crocodile innocently, "I never said that. He just guessed it himself."

"But you agreed, didn't you?!"

Crocodile was furious, and hooked Ivankov's collar with his hook, "You want to die, don't you?!"

Yes, through speculation based on clues and analysis of Ivankov's evidence against Crocodile, Lu Li came to a shocking conclusion yesterday.

That is, Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, who is famous all over the world, might have originally been... a woman.

As we all know, powerful domineering aura can break the power of the fruit. From this, Lu Li speculated that even if he didn't use very strong domineering aura, the accumulated use over time would wear away the power of the fruit attached to his body.

So Crocodile is obviously a master of Haki, but he doesn't use Haki when he is with Luffy.

Because compared to winning or losing, there is one thing he doesn't want to expose even if he dies!
If Ivankov's power over him is removed, he will turn back into a woman!

And Lu Li now wants to turn Lao Sha into a woman.
