"Tsk!"
"That's a bit pricey…"
Yuuto Kagami's eyes widened slightly in surprise.
So the 60,000 knowledge points he'd just earned were only enough to raise a power to Advanced Proficiency?
After a brief hesitation, he didn't immediately use them. Instead, he checked out another feature.
"System."
"How do I access the lottery function?"
[Basic Lottery: 10,000 Knowledge Points]
[Intermediate Lottery: 100,000 Knowledge Points]
[Advanced Lottery: 1,000,000 Knowledge Points]
[God-tier Lottery: 10,000,000 Knowledge Points]
"Huh?!"
Yuuto Kagami sucked in a breath.
Even the lottery was this expensive?
With his current 60,000 points, he didn't even have enough for a single Intermediate Draw!
"So I can only afford six tries at the Basic Draw, huh…"
Rubbing his chin, he murmured to himself:
"Well… might as well try it once."
"What's the harm in spending 10,000 points…"
With that, Yuuto Kagami chose the Basic Lottery and tapped the draw button.
[Ding!]
[Thank you for participating!]
"…"
"The hell?!"
Yuuto Kagami's eyelid twitched.
Even this damned system had a "Thanks for playing" consolation message?
Feeling his luck take a nosedive, he immediately rolled again.
[Ding!]
[Thank you for participating!]
"Oh hell no!"
Seeing his second failure, Yuuto Kagami got serious.
He pulled again.
This time—he won.
[Congratulations! You have obtained: Special Devil Fruit Physique (Allows consumption of multiple Devil Fruits)!]
"Special physique?"
"Isn't this… Blackbeard's body?"
A wide grin spread across Yuuto Kagami's face.
With this, he could bypass the limit and possess multiple Devil Fruit abilities!
"30,000 knowledge points for this kind of power? Totally worth it!"
Satisfied, Yuuto Kagami looked at his remaining points and used them to upgrade his mastery of the Ice-Ice Fruit to Intermediate.
"Crack—crack!"
A wave of icy air burst from his body.
Yuuto Kagami raised his hand.
The mist in the air began swirling, and soon countless weapons of ice—long swords, spears, and blades—materialized before him.
"Time to test it out."
Looking around the room, his gaze landed on a fruit knife on the table.
The Rinnegan's ripple pattern flickered in his eyes.
Whoosh!
The fruit knife flew toward him.
With a second glance, an ice sword shot forward.
Clang!
The knife was sliced clean in half, the cross-section as smooth as glass—proof of the ice sword's sharpness and durability.
"Definitely more control than before."
Yuuto Kagami nodded in satisfaction.
With Intermediate Mastery, he could now manipulate ice with far greater precision—shaping weapons at will, lowering the freezing temperature even further, and making the ice much denser and tougher.
After that, he formally activated the Special Devil Fruit Physique and took a moment to adjust to it.
Then he decided to rest.
Meanwhile, the internet was anything but quiet.
In fact—it had exploded.
After a short period of fermentation, Yuuto Kagami's stream VOD had gone completely viral.
On every major platform's trending list—
The Top 10 spots were all about him!
"Treasure-Hunting Streamer!"
"Yuuto Kagami – The Man with the Power of the Gods!"
"Shocking! Are Blue Star's Monsters Actually Real?"
"A Young Man Freezes a Sea Monster in One Blow!"
"One Piece world? Naruto World? Are Alternate Worlds Real?!"
"Eyewitnesses Claim a Giant Appeared on the Beach—Split the Sea with a Sword!"
No exaggeration—Yuuto Kagami was now the hottest name on the entire internet.
Even Shen Lele, who'd only briefly appeared during the stream, had become a household name!
[Chat barrage across various platforms]:
— Bro, what happened?! I woke up and it's like the world changed overnight!
— Devil Fruits, Sharingan, Rinnegan, sea monsters… it's like living in a dream!
— Nah, man. You're all buying into CGI tricks. Y'all got fooled.
— Fooled my ass! I was there! I saw Susano'o with my own two eyes!
— "Yuuto"? You sound way too familiar… I bet you're one of his paid shills!
— Shill or not, doesn't matter. From today on, this world ain't the one we thought we knew!
— The guy froze a sea monster like it was nothing!
— Have you seen the "Sword Split the Sea" clip? That one hits different!
— For real! A hundred-meter-tall divine warrior swinging a sword that cleaves a giant serpent—
— —And the shockwave parted the sea!
— Okay, now that's exaggerated. He just split the water near the beach.
— ?? There's no difference between splitting a sea or a shoreline! That's power either way!
And beyond just discussion about Yuuto Kagami—
Even the viewer who won the Devil Serpent's meat during the stream's prize draw had become an overnight celebrity.
[Chat barrage continues]:
— Haha, I won a piece of Devil Serpent meat today! Wonder what it tastes like?
— WHAT?! You lucky bastard! Mind sparing a bite?
— Bruh I'm so jealous. I had FIVE accounts and didn't get a single piece!
— That's on you. A thousand servings and you missed every one? GG.
— Anyone who got some, I'll buy! I'll pay ¥100,000 for a single portion!
— Pfft, 100K? Step aside. I'll pay a million—even just for one bite!
As the buzz grew, Yuuto Kagami's follower count skyrocketed.
From a modest 100,000, it multiplied several times overnight.
And that was still far from its peak.
The next morning.
Yuuto Kagami slept in naturally.
He didn't rush to start the stream.
Instead, he headed downstairs and had a simple breakfast.
...Well, "simple" in appearance.
Because he soon discovered something unusual—his appetite had become monstrous.
Even after eating five people's worth of food, he only felt mildly satisfied.
"No wonder it's Whitebeard's physique…"
He couldn't help but sigh.
In the One Piece world, the strongest warriors were all bottomless pits when it came to food.
You could practically say their power scaled with their appetite.
And Whitebeard, being one of the absolute strongest, had a stomach to match.
"Looks like if I want to stay full in the future… I'll need more food like Devil Serpent meat."
Yuuto Kagami mused.
Then he walked out onto the street.
After adjusting his outfit a little, he prepared to start his second livestream—
Only to notice something strange.
"Wait a second..."
"Why is my stream's follower count... this high?"
