The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth.
Hmm... Tastes like candy beans.
In the next second, a warm current began to grow within Kyle's body, flowing to all his limbs and bones.
Wherever the warm current passed, he could clearly feel his physique being strengthened. At the same time, it seemed something deeper was also being changed.
During this period, Kyle did not feel any pain at all, only a wave of comfort.
So comfortable he was about to fall asleep.
He did not know how much time had passed before Kyle slowly opened his eyes.
The scenery was still the same, but he inexplicably felt that something seemed different.
He raised his hand slightly, making a fist.
Great power continuously surged out from his body.
This power made him infatuated. He felt the current him could fight a hundred of his previous selves, maybe even more.
It was that exaggerated, that awesome.
System products are guaranteed to be high quality.
After feeling his new power properly, Kyle calmed his mind and looked at the second item in the system space.
[Supreme Grade Blade 'Purple Lightning'. A legendary famous sword. Only one with a heart as fierce and pure as thunder, and who fears not the power of lightning, can gain the recognition of 'Purple Thunder' and draw it from its sheath. When it finds its true master, the lightning patterns on the blade will be reignited, radiating a violet lightning capable of annihilating everything.]
"Tsk tsk, this description, the coolness factor is maxed out."
Kyle made clicking sounds with his tongue.
He opened his palm. With a flash, a sword wrapped in a deep violet sheath appeared in his hand.
The exposed hilt was also a dark violet. The tsuba was formed by a dark golden eastern dragon, its head and tail connected, coiled into a circle. The blade extended from the dragon's open mouth, as if the dragon was spewing thunder.
Putting everything else aside, the appearance of this blade was absolutely top tier among top tiers.
It looked so much better than Hawkeye's Black Blade Yoru or Whitebeard's Murakumogiri.
It perfectly matched Kyle's aesthetic.
Kyle gripped the hilt with his hand and pulled hard.
Well, it did not budge at all. At the same time, a slight stinging sensation came from his hand.
Kyle opened his palm. It was visibly slightly blackened at the center, with a few tiny arcs of violet electricity sparkling.
Seeing this, Kyle couldn't help but feel a wave of relief.
Luckily he had eaten the physique enhancement pill before trying to draw this sword.
His current physique surpassed that of Big Mom at the same age. Even so, he got a bit of scorching.
If it had been his previous self...
He might have attained the sleep of an infant the moment he tried to draw it.
"You don't recognize me, is that it."
Kyle raised an eyebrow slightly.
"You just wait."
Putting Purple Lightning aside, another flash appeared in Kyle's hand. This time, what appeared was a purple, pineapple-shaped fruit with lightning patterns.
[Logia Type. Rumble-Rumble Fruit. Violet Heaven Thunder Form. (No Side Effects Version). A creation of the System's great power. Its power source has been sublimated from ordinary lightning to the supreme 'Violet Heaven Thunder' originating from the essence of the universe, representing heavenly punishment. Has no side effects. Not suppressed by seawater or Seastone. Taste is refreshingly sweet.]
Kyle's eyes shone brightly.
The Rumble-Rumble Fruit, one of the strongest Logia fruits. In the original story, if Enel hadn't suffered from appearing too early, his performance would definitely have been more than that.
The ordinary Rumble-Rumble Fruit already had such dominance. How much more dominant would his clearly far superior Violet Heaven Thunder Form version be.
He was really looking forward to it.
Without hesitation, Kyle directly took a bite of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit before him. A refreshing sweetness exploded on his taste buds and slid down his throat.
It tasted like pineapple and also like watermelon. In short, two words. Delicious.
This taste made Kyle take two more bites. Soon, the entire fruit entered his stomach.
But he didn't feel anything unusual yet.
After a dozen breaths, a reverberating sound like a great bell emanated from within Kyle's body.
A strange energy began to grow from the depths of his body.
Crackle.
The sound of electric arcs crackling was heard. Streaks of violet lightning flickered and coiled around Kyle's body.
More and more appeared, their imposing manner growing stronger.
Snap.
Suddenly, one of the violet thunderbolts struck a tree directly.
Instantly, the tree was blasted to pieces, countless wood splinters flying.
The surging thunderbolts continuously struck the air, producing loud booming sounds. They struck the ground, creating large craters.
Such huge commotion naturally attracted the attention of Luffy, who was not far away.
Luffy was half crouching, his face covered in sweat dripping from the tip of his nose onto the ground. He looked up, and what met his eyes was a violet thunderbolt shooting towards him.
!!!
Luffy was instantly startled. He immediately retracted his hands and rolled to the side.
The rock, now unsupported, immediately began to fall. But before it hit the ground, it was struck by the incoming violet lightning.
Boom.
The rock violently exploded. Countless fragments of stone flew and scattered everywhere.
Luffy, who had rolled to the side, panted heavily, looking at Kyle, who stood amidst an ocean of violet lightning not far away, with a face full of terror.
Countless violet thunderbolts coiled around him, making him appear like a monarch of thunder.
He exuded an aura of wildness and destruction.
Luffy's eyes widened, his mouth slightly agape, not knowing what to say.
But he silently retreated a good distance.
His biological instincts warned him that approaching Kyle now would be a very foolish thing.
Kyle, immersed in the power of lightning, suddenly extended his hand and swung it downward.
A violet flash of light. A thick violet thunderbolt blasted onto a patch of ground ahead, directly creating a crater dozens of meters in diameter and several meters deep.
The tremendous force even caused cracks to appear on the surrounding ground, kicking up billowing dust.
It was only then that the rumbling sound of thunder echoed around the area.
(#°Д°)!
Luffy, who had retreated into the distance, almost popped his eyes out seeing this scene.
He stared at Kyle, his eyes unfocused.
What.
You're this awesome.
Yesterday, when he fought Kyle, even though Kyle easily beat him down.
Luffy was only convinced at that moment, but became unconvinced afterwards.
Because he felt that although Kyle was strong, he was not unbeatable.
But now.
Luffy's current mood was like ordinary man going to a boxing match, looking across, and seeing Mike Tyson stand up. At that point, it felt a bit unfair.
But then Tyson was just the referee. The real opponent was Ultraman Taro standing up.
Yes, that 'Cha Cha Cha' Giant of Light. Ultraman Taro.
Hmm.
That was roughly the feeling.
Kyle's display honestly made Luffy a little scared.
But what followed immediately was excitement.
If Kyle was this strong, could he also become this strong after being trained by Kyle.
That violet lightning was so cool. He wanted it too.
Luffy, at this age, did not yet know what Devil Fruits were. He simply thought that since Kyle could do it, he could too.
Thinking this, Luffy's eyes instantly turned into little stars. He fantasized in his mind about himself wielding that violet lightning in the future.
It was really. So cool.
At the same time, a yellow flash of light suddenly appeared in the sky. Immediately after, another figure appeared beside him.
