Bab 72: “Great reward”
[DING! Killed a Marine Admiral rewarding 10 skill points and 1,000 merit!]
Yamamoto read the notification from the system in front of him and smiled from his mouth blood came out and he felt a little tired, he quickly wiped the blood with his hand and looked forward.
After a few seconds, the raging sea started to calm down, and Yamamoto could finally see how a body fell like a torpedo straight into the sea, it was the corpse of Sengoku who no longer had his golden Buddha form.
Sengoku had a gigantic deep cut in his chest that almost cut him in two.
Yamamoto saw Sengoku's corpse and felt mixed feelings, on the one hand, jubilation as he had managed to get rid of a powerful enemy. Sengoku's strength in this world was at the pinnacle, not only did he have a mythological zoan, but he also possessed conqueror's haki and knew how to infuse.
It also felt strange to kill such an important character in the manga, but he shook his head, he never liked Sengoku very much.
Dragon was also by his side, his expression was hidden by the hood, but he was also moved by the death of such a powerful person.
However, Yamamoto to kill Sengoku had to pay a high price, Ittō Kasō is a spell that uses the body itself for its realization. By using this spell Yamamoto noticed that his lifespan decreased by 5 years.
*A reasonable price, anyway, I can buy life cards* thought Yamamoto was somewhat hurt by losing 5 years of life.
Bleach's Yamamoto had to sacrifice his left arm to use this spell. As he could buy life cards he preferred to lose 5 years, rather than an arm.
Before Sengoku's body fell into the sea, a person at full speed managed to intercept it, it was Magnus who finally managed to escape from the black cloth bindings.
Yamamoto noticed that he only had 1 minute and a half left before his 50% strength card ran out, *Tsch, this time he was saved* thought Yamamoto annoyed.
However, before returning to his ship he noticed out of the corner of his eye, that there were two marine ships near his ship. It was Sengoku's old ship and the other ship where the vice admiral of the marine was.
Komei and the other marines noticed Yamamoto's gaze on them and felt a great fear invade their bodies. Yamamoto slowly created a mini sun on his index finger and without thinking too much he threw it towards Komei's ship.
*Shit!" thought Komei horrified, he never thought that today would be the day of his death.
First of all, with two admirals no one thought they could lose, they even thought the fight was going to be relatively easy. They had Sengoku a person with a mythological zoan and he was facing Gold Roger the Pirate King.
And they also had Magnus a user of one of the most powerful fruits in the world.
As the fire ate him, Komei thought at what point did things start to go so wrong.
[DING! You killed a Marine Vice Admiral rewarded with 3 skill points and 300 merit points!]
Thus Komei left the world, Yamamoto never knew his name and the hatred he had for murdering his friend.
*Something is something* thought Yamamoto as he returned to his ship using Shunpo.
The difference in reward between an admiral and a vice admiral was very large, more than double, but it was understandable. On the one hand, the marine had quite a few vice admirals, and Yamamoto with his strength could easily kill them. On the other hand, there were only 3 admirals and their strength surpassed that of a vice admiral.
"Aren't we going after Magnus?" asked Dragon.
"No... to launch that attack I had to pay a big price, so I won't be able to fight. If you want you can go" Yamamoto replied. If I had 10 more minutes I could go kill him together with Dragon, but unfortunately, I didn't have time anymore.
"Better not to force their hand, now that Sengoku died who knows what they will do to survive" said Dragon shaking his head, having killed Sengoku was already considered a very good result.
Upon landing on the ship, both were greeted by cheers and smiling faces, "Amazing Fire Demon! What was that huge red sword?" exclaimed Yosano in surprise as she looked admiringly at Yamamoto.
"Well done old man, that's already the third time you've defeated the marine" said Clover with a smile.
"I hope they stop chasing us so hard now" said Roche with disdain towards the marine.
"This will make them more furious than before, but they will think a lot more before sending people after us" said Yamamoto as he felt the 50% strength card was over.
The incredible feeling of power ended, and he returned to his original strength, he also felt more tired and with less energy than before, due to sacrificing 5 years of his life.
"Sengoku the Buddha died, that will be a big blow to the Marine and the World Government" commented Tesoro.
"Even I knew him and I don't know much about those things" said Stella.
Saul was the only one not as ecstatic as the rest, Sengoku was his former superior, and although he had disagreements with him before, he felt no happiness at his death.
He was not upset with Yamamoto, as Sengoku was the one who ordered him to capture Olvia and the other archaeologists and subsequently attack Ohara, so he stopped respecting him.
The ex-marines also had strange expressions on their faces, after all, they were formerly in the marine, but knowing the history of the archaeologists, he also doubted the justice of the marine. Besides, they were under the orders of Nelson a very corrupt marine.
"Grandpa are you all right?" asked Hocha worriedly noticing blood on Yamamoto's lip.
"Yes..." replied Yamamoto as he quickly wiped the blood away, "I'm just a little tired from the battle, I'll go rest for a while" he added as he walked towards one of the rooms.
He had already noticed that all the marine ships had started to flee with their tails between their legs, so all that was needed was to resume the journey.
As he walked around the ship, he noticed that his vitality had worsened and he had some wrinkles that were not there before, after all, he had lost 5 years of life.
*I lost 5 years, but the reward I got was good...* thought Yamamoto as he sat down on a bed.
After that, he opened the system status window, and he noticed that he now had 13 skill points and his merit points reached 4,000 thanks to the 1,300 he gained.
Not only that but when he went to the system store to the devil fruit category, he noticed a golden devil fruit with a very majestic design, clearly it was the Sengoku mythological zoan.
*I have to buy it no matter what* thought Yamamoto with a slight smile.
When he saw the price of the fruit his previous smile disappeared, the price of the fruit was 16,500 merit points.
He lacked 12,500 merit points to be able to buy it, currently, he gets 280 merit points a month, so it would take him more than 3 years to be able to buy it.
As long as the people under his leadership stay at that number and Yamamoto does not plan to do anything for 3 years.
*I have to get merit points and buy it as soon as possible, there is also the metal fruit which is priced at 8,000 and since it is a lodge fruit, it is a good fruit* thought Yamamoto.
Getting merit points through missions was difficult, currently, he only has one mission active and that is recruiting captains for the divisions.
*Once we settle on Aurora Island I will start planning to get more people under my protection. Come to think of it, Ivankov should be bringing the families of Lego, Ralph, and the others with him* thought Yamamoto.
*Who will I give it to?* thought Yamamoto as he began to think of options.
Currently, the most trusted subordinates he has are two, Saul and Tesoro. The green-haired young man's strength is still lacking, and before he gets a devil fruit, it would be better if he learns the fundamentals of Haki so that he doesn't rely too much on his fruit.
The best option would be Saul, how much would his strength increase, and when he becomes a Buddha, how much will his size increase? Yamamoto imagined the scene where Saul transforms into a Buddha and becomes a golden super giant.
*The best choice would be Saul, his level could increase to admiral with this mythological fruit. Besides, this fruit increases the user's base strength, perfect for a giant* thought Yamamoto.
On the other hand, he trusted Saul a lot, he knew that his justice was very different from that of the marine and thanks to him Robin could be saved in the original timeline.
As for Tesoro, he was planning to find the fruit he would originally have. The fruit that allows him to manipulate gold.
*I'll think that for when I get the fruit, now it's time to increase my strength* thought Yamamoto as he set out to spend his skill points.
