-Entertainment City.-
In a large private room of a teahouse, more than a dozen Reincarnators were gathered.
Judging by their appearance and attire, most of these Reincarnators were Caucasians.
From their seating arrangement and the vigilance among them, it was clear that they were divided into two groups.
Upon closer observation, many of them were well-known experts within the Reincarnation Space!
"Has Adam not arrived yet?" asked a burly man over two meters tall.
Hearing this, a bald man sitting opposite him sneered, "Do you think you're worthy of meeting our god?"
The burly man's face darkened at these words, and he said coldly, "Arrogance and conceit—is that your attitude towards cooperation?"
A hint of disdain flashed in the bald man's eyes, but he straightened up and said in a pretentious manner, "We are very sincere about this cooperation."
"Sorry, I don't see any sincerity."
"Regardless, you don't want to see that Asura rise to power, do you? Tonight marks his fourth 'SSS' rating. According to our sources, the Asura who just cleared the third layer has at least a B-level strength rating and can face off against Issho from the 'One Piece' world head-on..."
As the bald man finished speaking, the surrounding people's faces changed.
Facing Issho head-on?
Even among them, few could do that!
The burly man was silent for a moment before speaking, "But Asura has already become a force to be reckoned with. His rise is unstoppable. No one in the same instance level can match him..."
"That's true, but we have other opportunities!" the bald man said.
"Oh?" the burly man asked. "What do you have in mind?"
"In a little while, it will be time for the annual large-scale instance 'Battle Royale' in Reincarnation Space. At that time, experts from our two districts can join forces to hunt down Asura!!"
As he spoke, the bald man had a sinister look on his face.
The burly man's eyes lit up but then he voiced his concern, "That woman (Murong Chixue) won't be easy to deal with."
"Don't worry, Mr. Adam will handle it personally..."
...
At the same time, Murong Chixue had just ended a video call with her intelligence officer.
She frowned.
She had just received information that Reincarnators from the Sam Empire and those from India were in close contact!
Besides Reincarnators from these two countries, there were also figures from South Korea and Japan.
Seeing these people gathered together, it was clear they were plotting something.
"Asura, your rise has been too rapid. Now, many people likely see you as a thorn in their side," Murong Chixue murmured.
During the call, the intelligence officer had hinted that the higher-ups wanted Asura to join their organization to provide support and protection.
But Murong Chixue wasn't interested in passing on the message.
She knew Asura's attitude and didn't want to be the bad guy.
With her current status, even if she didn't cooperate, the higher-ups wouldn't say much.
Opening her communication, Murong Chixue found that Asura had not yet emerged, so she left him a message.
She really had many questions she wanted to ask Asura.
Especially about how Asura influenced the 'One Piece' instance world and even affected her!!
As far as she knew, in major instance worlds, Reincarnators' tasks couldn't influence each other.
Each batch of Reincarnators completed the major instance tasks on a separate timeline.
When the next batch of Reincarnators entered, everything would reset!
Today's events were unprecedented.
...
At that moment, Chen Ye was in his personal warehouse, checking his rewards:
"Reincarnation Points: 40,000 points."
"Strength Attribute +30."
"Personal Instance Card: x1. (Stored in your personal warehouse)"
"Golden Treasure Chest: x1. (Stored in your personal warehouse)"
This time, he only received 40,000 Reincarnation Points, compared to 50,000 points from the previous instance "The Eternal Evil of Asia."
Chen Ye felt that this task had been more challenging and dangerous!
He mentally cursed the system for its unfair evaluations.
Then, Chen Ye began to allocate his points.
Points, of course, were used to enhance potential.
However, after Chen Ye had exchanged dozens of points, the system suddenly prompted:
[Respected Reincarnator 'Asura,' you have accumulated 500 points in potential, exiting the novice range. From now on, each point of potential will cost 500 points!]
What?!
Price increase?
Chen Ye was annoyed.
He thought he could significantly boost his attributes this time, but now...
Even though the price had gone up, Chen Ye still had to exchange points.
All for becoming stronger, no other choice!
In the end, Chen Ye exchanged a total of 76 points, leaving 5,000 points.
After distributing the potential points to his attributes, Chen Ye proceeded with the other rewards.
Strength Attribute +30.
This had already been automatically added, so no need to worry.
Personal Instance Card.
A valuable item! Chen Ye loved it!
Personal instances were rare and highly rewarding, with little danger.
The last reward, which Chen Ye valued the most...
The Golden Treasure Chest!!
According to online strategies, items from treasure chests in the third layer of the "One Piece" instance were all from the "One Piece" world.
The most likely item was a Devil Fruit.
There were rumors that Adam, with the highest evaluation, once got a Zoan-type Devil Fruit from a Bronze Chest in the third layer.
Thinking about this, Chen Ye was excited.
Adam had a Bronze Chest, while he had a Golden Chest, two levels higher!!
(Treasure Chest Color Levels: Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold)
He didn't have high expectations, just a "Goro Goro no Mi" or "Gura Gura no Mi" would do!
Yes!
That wasn't too much to ask!!!
With anticipation and excitement, Chen Ye slowly opened the treasure chest...
A flash of golden light!
Inside the chest, there wasn't the Devil Fruit Chen Ye had hoped for.
A solitary scroll lay in the chest.
"Damn? Where's my Gura Gura no Mi?"
Seeing no Devil Fruit, Chen Ye was almost ready to explode, his face turning green with anger.
But when he picked up the scroll, his anger vanished, replaced by a look of surprise and joy!
