Ordinary Group Admin: "Or, you know, when the chat group unlocks new features, you'll want to save points for something else."
Richest Man: "I get all that, but why are you only telling us now? We've been in the group for two weeks!"
The Undefeated East: "For me, it's been half a month."
Northern God's Glory: "Woof, woof, woof???"
Northern God's Glory: "Why does my timer say a month?"
Richest Man: "Guess time flows differently in every world… but you, you mangy mutt, you joined after East but have been here longer? Go back to sleep, you lazy Shiba!"
Richest Man: "Anyway, what matters now is this—@Ordinary Group Admin, why didn't you mention the lottery sooner? I thought this group was just for chatting and sending red envelopes!"
Ordinary Group Admin: "Hehe, my bad. Cute face.jpg"
Richest Man: "…"
Richest Man: "So @everyone, if the admin forgot, none of you thought to remind me?"
Evilest Spirit: "Forgot."
Soup-for-Daigu: "My brain refuses to memorize stuff like that."
Uchiha Dance King: "That function only messes with your mood. That's all it does."
Come Be My Son: "Agreed."
Just Like That, Meow: "I got a useless item, meow."
Golden Flash: "Mine was okay, but honestly, I forgot about it."
Child of Nature: "I figured someone would tell you while I was away. But maybe you all just drew bad prizes and were too embarrassed to bring it up."
The Undefeated East: "Is the lottery really that bad?"
Richest Man: "Now I'm curious—what did you all draw, exactly?"
Richest Man: "Wanna share some details?"
Ordinary Group Admin: "Nope."
Evilest Spirit: "Denied."
Uchiha Dance King: "Wanna dance with me?"
Come Be My Son: "Want to experience a direct Quake-Quake Fruit hit?"
Soup-for-Daigu: "Think Tiga's Specium Ray would roast you alive?"
The last three "heavyweights" dropped those threats so quickly that even Tony's burning curiosity faded for a moment.
He'd spent days reviewing every "memory playback" available. And seriously, what were all these worlds? None of them followed the laws of common sense!
In the Naruto world, Uchiha Madara takes on a hundred thousand foes—summoning meteors and resurrecting the dead?
And the Pirate world… those Devil Fruits are just ridiculous! Tony had thought he could trade his wealth for cool items, thinking gold would be valuable everywhere.
But then the Gold-Gold Fruit? Sure, it can't create gold from thin air, but it can turn objects into gold.
What kind of logic is that?
And then—artificial Devil Fruits? Since when could those be made in a lab?
Ridiculous.
Pokémon World was, surprisingly, pretty chill—adorable little monsters with powers and the ability to understand human speech. Tony actually wanted to buy one as a pet.
But the most mind-blowing world was Daigu's—Ultramen that can only fight for three minutes, but could level a city in that time.
Heck, three minutes repeated a few times, and they could destroy a whole country.
As for that mutt's universe, Tony wasn't interested. He didn't watch comedy anime.
Richest Man: "You guys must have pulled some truly embarrassing stuff. Even your faces show how unlucky you are in those memory clips."
Richest Man: "Let Tony Stark show you what real luck looks like!"
After he sent that message, there was a long silence.
Northern God's Glory: "Woof?"
The Undefeated East: "Where did he go?"
Ordinary Group Admin: "Even if you got something lame, you should at least show it off."
Soup-for-Daigu: "Hope it's a pig."
Uchiha Dance King: "…"
Finally—
Richest Man: "Ahem, I think there's a problem with this lottery."
Richest Man: "Maybe next time."
Richest Man: "It's not that what I got is totally useless, maybe there's a little value, but it's kind of…"
Ordinary Group Admin: "Kind of what?"
Ordinary Group Admin: "Is it something too embarrassing to mention?"
Ordinary Group Admin: "Excited face.jpg"
Richest Man: "Picture.jpg"
[Item Obtained: Failed Super Soldier Serum]
Description: A failed attempt at the super soldier serum. The strengthening effects are gone, but the pain remains—pure, unrelenting agony.
Remark: If you can endure it, your willpower will become legendary, but your body won't gain any actual power.
Ordinary Group Admin: "What the hell is that? Who would drink this garbage?"
Ordinary Group Admin: "It's like eating a Devil Fruit that gives you none of the powers but all the flavor."
Child of Nature: "Perfect comparison."
Richest Man: "I wonder who developed this… Hydra, maybe?"
Richest Man: "Seriously, who would use this?"
Richest Man: "@Northern God's Glory, why don't you try your luck next?"
Richest Man: "I could use some emotional support."
Northern God's Glory: "Beg me."
Richest Man: "Fine, I beg you."
Ordinary Group Admin: "Wow, not even a hint of shame."
Ordinary Group Admin: "The things you'll do for comfort…"
Ordinary Group Admin: "If Thor actually draws something good, just… never mind."
As soon as Roxie Vale posted that, Thor dropped his own prize, and Roxie quickly retracted her words.
There was no "if."
Northern God's Glory: Picture of a Devil Fruit with a big bite taken out of it
Child of Nature: "From a certain angle, that's literally a Devil Fruit with all the flavor and none of the power."
Child of Nature: "Roxie, are you cursed?"
Richest Man: "Thanks, Admin—your bad luck is contagious, but it does make me feel a little better."
Ordinary Group Admin: "Damn it!"
Northern God's Glory: "Shiba-Inu in ecstasy.jpg"
Northern God's Glory: "Shiba-Inu excitement.jpg"
Northern God's Glory: "This thing tastes amazing! A little strange—not a simple flavor, but honestly, I love it!"
Come Be My Son: "???"
Come Be My Son: "You really think a Devil Fruit tastes good?"
Come Be My Son: "They always say it tastes like crap, but it's just an expression—it's not literally crap! Even a dog shouldn't like that, right?"
