“Brother red-haired brother, let me tell you frankly, this so-called ‘ghost’ of mine…”
After Lin Qi had a full meal, he finally felt not so hungry and wiped his mouth.
Pitch-black stand-in energy immediately surged out of his body, and a steel armor-like figure whose eyes and the inverted triangle area on his chest glowed with white light slowly walked out and stood beside Lin Qi.
“…It’s not the Devil Fruit ability.” Lynch thought for a while and said to Shanks simply.
“Ah~~” Shanks nodded and drawled, leaned back, held down the straw hat with one hand, and hung his other arm on the back of the chair.
Lin Qi smiled and said, “You don’t seem too surprised?”
“Don’t look at me like this,” Shanks said with a nonchalant smile, “I’m still a little bit bad at judging people’s abilities… I felt before that you seemed to be hiding something intentionally. But I don’t know what others are doing. I’m not very interested in secrets – but, so it is, so it is…” He nodded slightly as if suddenly, “Then, this makes sense… If ‘Ghost’ is not a fruit ability, ‘Channel’ is , right?”
Shanks activated his domineering aura and stared at the dark shadow beside Lynch, especially the glowing inverted triangle on the latter’s chest.
After appearing, “B.I.B” did not shy away from Shanks’ gaze, and directly took out the tube fruit chip and implanted it into Lynch’s body.
“I see that you have never avoided me… So, your ‘ghost’ can actually give you devil fruit abilities?”
Shanks remembered that when everyone was floating on the ice, Lynch had been touched by his ghost with a glowing triangle.
“It’s a bit crazy to say that you are given.”
Lin Qi waved his hand and pointed at “B.I.B” beside him.
“In addition to being a clone that allows me to double my spiritual growth, it can also extract, store, and implant the ability of Devil Fruit… This Guan Guan Fruit was on that island before. I saw some gangsters arresting people all over the city…it seemed quite interesting, so I took it over to play with.”
As he spoke, he gestured to “B.I.B”.
The latter understood it clearly, stretched out his left hand full of blue flame patterns, plunged it straight into Lynch’s chest, and pulled out the chip that controlled the fruit.
Grabbing the triangular white chip covered with tubular patterns, switching to his right hand with red flame patterns, the jet-black armor passed through the dining table like a ghost and came to Shanks.
The latter was leaning on the back of the chair, with a pair of long legs raised on the edge of the table, staring at the dark shadow in front of him with a domineering look. When the other person reached out with a white triangle in his right hand, he did not refuse at all. With this movement, he watched the red flame-patterned right hand of “B.I.B” sink straight into his heart – he didn’t even use a trace of armed domineering.
When Lin Qi saw this, he couldn’t help but secretly praise him.
He is worthy of being the future overlord of the sea. His bold and uninhibited mind is something that few can match!
Being so trusted by such a charismatic guy, Lynch felt that if he had even the slightest inclination to hang out with the red-haired man, he might have bowed to him and recognized him as the captain.
“Oh~ I see…”
After “B.I.B” implanted the Guan Guan Fruit into his body, Shanks looked at his hands and suddenly realized.
He tapped his heels lightly on the table, and immediately imitated Lynch’s previous method, using his ability to create a circular pipe hole on the table.
“A skill even more incredible than a Devil Fruit!” Shanks praised, “But let’s take it away, I quite like swimming~!”
Lin Qi waved his hand and signaled “B.I.B” to take out the tube fruit chip from the red hair’s body.
He said: “Based on the information I know, this should be regarded as a kind of… well, some kind of special endowment resulting from the mutation of life energy after special stimulation! I think, you The so-called “life-returning” talent that I have, which I am only aware of now… is probably because of it.”
Shanks nodded as if in agreement and asked curiously: “But why did you tell me so suddenly?”
“Because I don’t explain the settings clearly, I can’t continue to ask you for advice.” Lin Qi pressed his feet and sat cross-legged on the chair. “Before, I thought it was quite troublesome to explain, so it would be better to have more things to do. One less thing.”
He smiled and said sincerely: “And… I think I also have a little bit of insignificant judgment about people.”
“Hahahaha!” Shanks raised his head and laughed, “You are really interesting, kid! What do you want to ask?”
Lin Qi said: “I’m surprised…you said that I can make up for the huge load on my body by eating a large amount of food in a short period of time and digesting it quickly, so that I can prevent my body from collapsing due to my ridiculous cultivation method… You said this is a typical performance of someone with the ability to return life… But, I’m not very strong, am I?”
He looked at his fists in confusion, “Aside from being able to eat and sleep, there doesn’t seem to be anything particularly powerful about me. At least I definitely can’t be as fast and as hard as the antelope sister on the deck before. …”
Shanks put down his legs, sat upright, tapped his fingers on the table, and said with a smile: “I think you are confused about something… I have never said that the ability to return life is , it must equal great strength.”
A question mark finally slowly appeared on Lin Qi’s head.
“For example, domineering——”
With a bang, Shanks tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and was wrapped in jet-black armed domineering energy.
“You have to know that the energy of domineering actually exists in everyone’s body. And in this world, there are people who are born with the power of domineering even without any learning or hard training. …And that kind of person must have great strength, or in other words, force?”
Lin Qi was a little confused by these counter-intuitive words, but – soon, he remembered a certain character from the Sky Island Chapter in the comic.
The little girl who was born with a domineering aura that could cover the entire sky island.
“Basic energy, in the final analysis, is just a kind of energy that everyone is born with. Only when combined with powerful martial arts can one become a strong man.” Shanks said slowly, “Similarly, the return of life is also It is just an understanding of the body and self. It is even rumored that the person who initially realized the return of life was actually just an ordinary person who had lived in the mountains for a long time and slept in the open air… Only physical skills obtained through hard training, such as six Only in this way can you create a powerful master… Of course, I heard that in some places it is the other way around. Through practicing the six postures for many years, you can deepen your proficiency in the return of life.”
