Bab 22: Chapter 22: The Power of the Spider Fruit!
Devil Fruit!
Curse of the sea!
In the propaganda of the World Government, it is considered evil, and many people in East Blue believe it brings misfortune.
But for Ruen, it is a gift from God—the power to change his destiny.
He used to be a gambler. In a stroke of bad luck, he went bankrupt and was chased for debts.
In desperation, he met the king of Oiket and obtained a Devil Fruit.
It was the power of the Devil Fruit that changed his destiny.
Ruen used his fruit ability to weave spider webs all over the casino.
No one could escape his sight.
He "saw" outside the main gate that a battle was unfolding, causing panic among the gamblers.
How dare someone cause trouble at the Spider Casino?
Ruen was instantly furious!
He had been holding back his anger with nowhere to vent it.
"It's really courting death!"
Ruen yelled angrily and kicked the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window.
He jumped up and landed firmly in mid-air.
Then, he ran at an extremely fast speed, with each step landing on a transparent spider web, like a poisonous spider attacking.
Behind him, the middle-aged knight thought for a moment, jumped down from the three-story office, and chased after him.
Chi Chi Chi!
Kuina's sword flickered with cold light as she raised it, cutting down the guards pouring out of the casino.
Luwell was not idle either; with her long legs, she jumped, and her two flintlock guns sprayed gunpowder as she fought fiercely.
The explosion just now was caused by her using a rocket launcher, which directly blew up the gate of the casino—quite the violent approach.
And what about Leno?
He was working on the bazooka that Luwell had discarded.
Guns, cannons!
Still fascinating!
This was quite attractive to Leno from another world, who could only envy foreigners who shoot and play with guns every day.
Following the instructions, he loaded the primer and put the shells in.
Lift up.
Aim!
Ruen, who was "flying" in mid-air, had become half-human, half-spider, and his body hair could sense danger.
A warning rose in his heart.
Turning his head, he saw a fire in the distance.
Then, there was a "boom."
The shell flew out and hit him directly.
Boom!
There was an explosion in mid-air, a cloud of flames and black smoke.
In the next moment, Ruen rushed out in embarrassment, staring, a little dazed.
What happened?
Fired all of a sudden?
Leno observed carefully; no obvious injuries could be seen on the opponent. He couldn't help shaking his head. The damage was too low, right?
The flying speed and power of the cannonball were far from his expectations.
I have to say that the technology tree of the One Piece World is quite crooked.
There are biochemical robots like the Seraphim, spaceships that can go to the moon, bloodlines, and more.
But when it comes to firearms, it's really lacking.
Although there are many types, including flintlock guns, machine guns, bazookas, artillery, etc., the power is so underwhelming!
Only the word "hehe" comes to mind.
It's not uncommon for Zoro to chop the cannonball with his sword and Luffy to bounce the bullet away.
Leno was a little curious—if the bullets fired at Luffy were armor-piercing, would they be able to pierce his rubber?
"Luwell? You're courting death!"
Ruen, who was in a daze, caught a glimpse of Luwell and finally realized that they were the ones causing trouble on Weapons Street.
Where was Kuro?
Why didn't he stop them?
A trace of doubt flashed in Ruen's heart, but without any hesitation, he fell from midair and landed lightly.
"Boss!"
Seeing him, the casino workers' morale was boosted.
At this time, Ruen's lower body was a spider, and his upper body was human, but he had black lines and four spider arms.
"Zoan?"
Leno eyed him with interest.
Devil Fruit is the biggest attraction in the first half of the Grand Line, but in the second half, it becomes the world of Haki.
But it cannot be denied—
A good Devil Fruit can greatly increase the upper limit of human potential.
Logia, Zoan, Paramecia—each type of fruit has its own advantages.
Spider-Man?
Kuina was very curious when she saw the Devil Fruit power for the first time.
"Ruen, you seem to be in trouble?" The middle-aged knight quietly jumped down from the tall building with an air of watching the show.
He had just finished speaking—
Boom!
He was kicked out by a spider leg and embedded in the wall.
"Shut up, Guy! If you keep talking, I'll kill you!"
The transformed Ruen had a bad temper.
His eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Leno and the others, saying fiercely, "I wanted to sell you to the slave traders, but you are looking for death!"
His spider legs kicked off, and he was running towards Kuina at great speed.
"Spider Lance Stab!"
Swish!
Facing a power user she had never encountered before, Kuina did not confront him head-on. She jumped lightly to avoid the stabbing spider arm.
The black spider arms were like spears, shining with a metallic luster.
They easily pierced the rocks and had black-purple venom that corroded the ground, emitting a disgusting stench.
Ruen continued to chase, but a strong wind hit him from behind.
He rolled his eyes and dodged sideways.
A stone flew past.
That's it?
Want to hit him?
Ruen disdained it, but his complacency lasted for less than a second, and the second stone hit him trickily.
It was as if it knew how he would dodge!
Smack!
As if being shot, his spider shell shattered, fine cracks appeared, and blood flowed out.
"What?"
Ruen was shocked and cried out in pain.
You know, he had become like a spider, with special compound eyes, speed, strength, and perception multiplied.
The spider shell that wrapped his body was even impenetrable to bullets!
Now he was injured by a stone?
Fear emerged in his heart as he looked at the black-haired boy who was the instigator, with bloody compound eyes, glaring with murderous intent.
Kill him!
He must be killed!
"Go to hell! Spider Web Attack!"
Ruen went berserk. The cobwebs in the casino seemed to come alive, hanging down one by one silk thread, and crazily rolled towards Leno.
At the same time, his body was completely animalized, turning into a big black spider, quickly shuttling between the spider webs.
Swipe!
His afterimage jumped between the spider webs, and the dancing spider webs provided him with the best cover.
Can't see me?
Ruen grinned grimly.
This trick he learned from observing spiders hunting; the entire casino was his lair.
Here, no one could beat him!
Suddenly, he saw the black-haired boy shaking his lower body slightly, like prey caught in a spider's web.
Chance!
"Prey!"
Ruen rushed out, and the four spider lances howled, piercing towards Leno.
