Chương 186: Chapter 186: Demon Slayer (Part 1)
"Thank you so much," Dragon said gratefully to Danielon an uninhabited island in the Calm Belt. Dragon's gratitude stemmed from Danielbringing a substantial amount of food, which was a much-needed resource for the Revolutionary Army.
"No need to be so polite, it's a fair trade," Danielreplied calmly. For him, providing weapons and food to the Revolutionary Army without charge wasn't a big deal. In modern society, there was an abundance of food, and with his alchemy skills, producing weapons was even easier. However, Danielknew the saying "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; give a man a net, and you feed him for a lifetime." He didn't want to make the mistake of creating dependence.
This time, the Revolutionary Army exchanged an Animal-type Devil Fruit and considerable treasure for the supplies. The value was roughly equivalent, at least under normal circumstances. In reality, since the Revolutionary Army couldn't purchase supplies normally and had to buy from the underground black market, the prices they paid were several times higher than what Danieloffered, which is why Dragon was so grateful.
"An Animal-type Cat-Cat Fruit, huh." Looking at the black-colored Devil Fruit in his hand, Danielthought for a moment. It seemed he didn't have anyone suitable to consume this fruit right now, so he put it away.
"Should I create an army of Animal-type ability users like Kaido?" Among the three main types of Devil Fruits, the Animal types were the most numerous, especially if you included the artificial ones. According to his memory, Danielknew that artificial Devil Fruits were also Animal types.
"Kaido can transform into a dragon, and an Eastern dragon at that. It doesn't seem scientific," Danielthought. When he arrived in the One Piece world, he naturally learned about Kaido's abilities. In his previous world, Kaido's ability had not been revealed yet. Confirming Kaido's abilities through various intelligence sources, Danielwas quite surprised.
"Is it a Mythical Zoan?" He pondered, thinking about Kaido's ability to control clouds and spit powerful flames.
"Why couldn't the Navy kill him if he's a Devil Fruit user? Couldn't they just throw him into the sea? Or is there something I don't know, like with my Surgical Fruit, which lacks typical Devil Fruit weaknesses?"
"Never mind, the Four Emperors are still far beyond my reach. I shouldn't worry about them now. Speaking of which, Doflamingo must be quite frustrated lately."
Understanding the underground forces in the pirate world, Danielmarked some of the weapons sold to the Revolutionary Army with the Donquixote Family's insignia, as well as those of other arms dealers. This shift in attention caused part of the World Government's focus to turn towards Doflamingo and those other arms dealers. For arms dealers, selling weapons was the priority, regardless of who the buyer was. In fact, selling to the Revolutionary Army could fetch higher prices.
Like the arms dealer in Obadiah Stane, who sold weapons to terrorists at several times the normal price. The profits in the arms business were unimaginable unless you were involved in it. No wonder so many people fought to get into this line of work. This wasn't even considering that Daniel's weapon manufacturing was essentially a cost-free business.
Of course, Danielhad officially established a weapon production factory. The production was not large, mainly serving two purposes: providing weapons for his forces and covering up his true activities. With his Shichibukai status, as long as he didn't overstep boundaries, even Doflamingo, the underground arms kingpin, couldn't say much.
"Am I going back on my word?" Danielsighed softly, remembering how he had vowed never to get involved in the arms business.
"This is for the sake of the Revolutionary Army," he consoled himself, resolving not to lower his standards any further. It's said that once you break your bottom line, it's easier to do it again.
"So Ace has become Whitebeard's son after all." The uproar over Ace challenging Whitebeard settled down quickly. The outcome of the challenge was obvious to anyone who understood the true power of the Four Emperors. The so-called challenge was just a farce for those who didn't know better, hoping Ace might stand a chance.
Those familiar with the Four Emperors' power knew the challenge was futile. Information was severely restricted; only those with significant power and status had access to certain intelligence.
"With Robin and Ada around, things are much easier," Danielthought as he donned his Ant-Man suit and began his journey to explore new worlds.
"In a while, Zhao Helen's nanotechnology should be successful, making things much simpler. If only I had currency usable in the universe, I could buy nanotechnology there."
Nanotechnology was an advanced and expensive technology in the universe.
"This time, I didn't encounter any unexpected events." Using the Space Stone, Danielarrived in a new world, observing his surroundings. He was in the middle of a forest, with moonlight revealing an endless mountain range in the distance.
"I need to find people to understand the situation here," Danielthought, activating his Observation Haki.
"There are many living creatures, but no human presence," he noted. Choosing a direction at random, he began his journey.
"There's a path. Following it should lead to people," Danielthought as he swiftly left the forest, discovering a road outside.
In the past, he would have used a flying board or broomstick, but with his greatly improved strength in the One Piece world, he decided to walk this time. Enjoying the rare leisure moment, he admired the stars while walking.
"Ah!" Suddenly, a blood-curdling scream came from ahead.
"Room, Slaughterhouse." Daniel, upon hearing the scream, immediately used his Surgical Fruit ability to swap places with the figure in the room. He found a man and a woman lying in a pool of blood, with two young children crying and pulling at their clothes.
"Shut up," said a shadowy figure standing nearby, raising a clawed hand toward the children.
Danielimmediately covered the area with his Surgical Fruit and swapped places with the figure. "They're still alive," he noted, finding the man and woman not yet dead. "Lucky for you, you encountered me," Danielmuttered, pulling out a red stone, the Philosopher's Stone, and using it to stabilize their condition.
"Bastard," came an angry roar from the figure who then lunged at Daniel, claws aiming for his throat.
"Human, no, not right." Now face to face, Danielsaw the figure looked human but had blue skin and sharp nails. "A demon or a zombie," Danielthought, kicking the figure out of the room.
"Quiet down," he said, knocking out the two crying children.
"Hmm, still not dead," Danielnoted, seeing the figure rise again. It appeared unharmed despite being kicked out of the house.
"Damn it," the figure cursed, charging at Danielagain.
"Looks like a demon," Danielthought, grabbing an axe and chopping off the figure's hands.
"It hurts, it hurts, you bastard," the figure cursed, its arms regenerating.
"This is interesting. What about the head?" Danielthought, chopping off its head next.
"Still alive," Danielobserved as the head and body reattached.
"An immortal body?" Danielwas about to try other methods when he sensed three people approaching from two directions. "Guess I can't experiment now," he thought, choosing to hold his ground with the axe.
"Ah!" The figure charged again, showing no signs of learning.
Danielswung the axe, chopping off all four limbs this time.
"Not coming out?" Danielnoticed one person had stopped nearby but hadn't approached. "Let's see how well you can regenerate," he said, continuing to chop off limbs as they regrew, ignoring the figure's furious roars.
"Ghouls." Two young people arrived, a boy and a girl, both about twelve years old. The boy had red hair and a green-checkered outfit, with a large scar on his forehead. The girl had long black hair and a bamboo tube in her mouth.
"What's a ghoul?" Danielasked, noticing their unusual appearance.
"A flesh-eating monster," the boy explained, describing ghouls in detail.
"How do you kill them?" Danielasked, chopping off limbs as they regrew.
"I don't know," the boy said apologetically.
"Oh, I remember now! Ghouls can't be exposed to sunlight," the boy exclaimed.
"So, I just need to hold out until dawn," Danielsaid, noting the silent observer nearby. "Someone is injured inside. Can you take care of them? I can't leave here," he asked.
The red-haired boy agreed, leading the girl into the house.
"An immortal ghoul, let's see," Danielthought, splitting its head with an axe.
"Still alive, huh. Let's continue."
Time passed as Danielrepeatedly chopped at the ghoul. When dawn broke, the ghoul disintegrated in the sunlight, screaming in defiance.
"Amazing," Danielsaid, watching the ghoul's remains vanish. "First time seeing a ghoul, and you handled it well," came a voice from behind, startling Daniel.
"Who are you?" Danielasked, raising his axe at the masked newcomer.
"Interested in joining the Demon Slayer Corps?" the stranger asked instead.
"Demon Slayer Corps?"
