"Fufufufufu, Hancock, you can't kill me!!"
Doflamingo lightly plucked his fingers, and all the surrounding buildings were assimilated into white threads.
Whenever Hancock tried to get close, Doflamingo would manipulate the white thread ocean, forming an impenetrable barrier.
Both defense and offense were maximized.
"Doflamingo, all your comrades are dead, and you can still laugh??"
Hancock sneered, slowly taking off the bat ring from her finger.
Even without using the heavenly pearl arrow, she could kill Doflamingo, but it would take a very long time.
She didn't care, but Reyno would be displeased.
So...
Looking at the purple longbow in Hancock's hand, Doflamingo's pupils constricted, and his heart skipped a beat.
He clearly remembered that Admiral Kizaru had died by this longbow.
It must not be underestimated!
"Doflamingo, today is your death day!!"
Hancock narrowed her eyes slightly, drawing the bow and nocking an arrow.
The power of the Love-Love Fruit and intense Armament Haki wrapped around the heavenly pearl arrow.
For a moment, the purple arrow glowed brightly.
"Damn it!!" Doflamingo cursed under his breath.
Even from such a distance, he still felt a heart-pounding sensation.
"I'll fight you to the death!!"
Doffy's face once again clouded with gloom. He crossed his arms, then clenched his fists tightly.
"Sixteen Holy Destructive Bullets: Heavenly Punishment!"
Amidst a furious roar, sixteen colossal white lines, imbued with pure Armament Haki and carrying terrifying penetrative power, suddenly shot out from the surging white tide, piercing towards Hancock at an incredibly fast speed.
This was Doffy's strongest killing move to date, the result of pushing his String-String Fruit to its limits, and his ultimate trump card.
"Mere parlor tricks!"
Hancock remained unfazed, her slender fingers releasing the arrow.
The arrow whistled through the air.
The heavenly punishment arrow shot from the bowstring.
The next instant, the sixteen incredibly dark silk threads collided violently with the heavenly pearl arrow in mid-air.
There was no evenly matched struggle as Doffy had anticipated.
The heavenly pearl arrow effortlessly destroyed the sixteen black silk threads one after another, then, with undiminished power, it continued its assault towards Doffy.
"Damn it! Shield White Threads!"
Doffy's hair stood on end. His proud killing move was so utterly vulnerable when facing the heavenly pearl arrow.
In a flash, his fingers manipulated countless threads to form a solid defensive wall in front of him.
The next second.
Boom!
The unstoppable heavenly pearl arrow effortlessly broke through the thread barrier, piercing Doffy's body.
"How is this possible…"
Crack.
Crack.
Doffy's thoughts came to an abrupt halt.
Starting from his chest, his body petrified inch by inch, eventually transforming completely into a lifelike stone statue.
A violent explosion followed, and countless gravel fell from the sky.
Hancock put her bat ring back on, glanced indifferently at the dust, then turned and left.
On King's Plateau.
"It's all over."
Reno's Observation Haki enveloped the entire Dressrosa, and he quickly learned the outcome of the battle.
With Doffy's death, the Donquixote Family Executives were completely wiped out, leaving only small fry.
With Nami and the others cleaning up, it wouldn't take long to clear everything.
The only trouble was the town's residents.
As their memories resurfaced, the entire island was thrown into chaos.
Cries, curses, and shouts of indignation rose and fell, echoing endlessly.
The same scene unfolded in every corner of Dressrosa.
Reno felt no sympathy for these citizens.
They had chosen to believe Doffy's words and invited a wolf into their home, which ultimately led to the current disaster.
It was essentially the same situation as Alabasta.
However, Reno had already sensed that King Riku had organized a group of the former Riku Royal Army.
Kyros, the former captain of the Dressrosa army, was also among them.
With the help of Viola and Nami, among others, it wouldn't take long to stabilize the chaotic situation.
After branding Baby-5, Sugar, and Monet with the Slave Mark, Reno left the main hall.
SMILE Factory.
This was where Doffy specialized in manufacturing artificial devil fruits.
As soon as Reno entered, a purple figure came into view.
This person had long, spiky black hair, two horns on his head, and floated in the air in a gaseous state.
He was Caesar Clown, a Logia-type Gas-Gas Fruit User.
He was also a genius scientist who had worked with Vegapunk and Vinsmoke Judge.
The commotion at the door immediately drew Caesar's attention, and he turned to look.
"Reno!!!"
Caesar reacted like a mouse seeing a cat, his tongue rippling like a wave, and his eyeballs comically popping out.
He trembled uncontrollably, his gaseous body almost dissipating.
"Lord Reno, Doffy and I were just in a cooperative relationship. Please be merciful and let me go."
"I'm really just an ordinary scientist, don't kill me."
Caesar begged humbly, snot and tears streaming down his face.
Even Big Mom, whom he feared most, had been killed by Reno.
Facing this ruthless man, he had no power to resist.
Reno didn't bother listening to Caesar's nonsense and directly branded him with the Slave Mark.
Although the success rate of artificial devil fruits was not high, the Gifters created were not ordinary beings.
Kaido's ability to maintain his Yonko rule was largely due to his army of artificial Devil Fruit Users.
"Master."
Caesar's eyes gradually cleared, and his tone became increasingly respectful.
Reno nodded with satisfaction and casually said, "From now on, you will continue to produce artificial devil fruits. Other matters are none of your concern."
Caesar immediately replied respectfully, "Yes, Master."
After giving his instructions, Reno left the artificial Devil Fruit factory.
With the Slave Mark in place, he wasn't afraid of Caesar playing tricks.
With the downfall of the Donquixote Family and the successful subjugation of Caesar, matters were largely concluded.
Reno was not in a hurry to enjoy himself with The girls.
For Viola and Rebecca, stabilizing the domestic situation was the top priority.
After locating the other women with his Observation Haki, Reno successively branded them with the Slave Mark.
Under his command, Baby-5, Monet, Koala, and Moda also joined the forces suppressing the rebellion.
Once everything settled down, he planned to take care of the seven women all at once.
Feeling great.
Before that, he would claim his rewards.
After handling everything, Reno returned to the main hall.
The exciting moment had finally arrived.
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully subjugating crew member Baby-5. Do you wish to claim the reward?]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully subjugating crew member Monet. Do you wish to claim the reward?]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully subjugating crew member Sugar. Do you wish to claim the reward?]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully subjugating crew member Viola. Do you wish to claim the reward?]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully subjugating crew member Rebecca. Do you wish to claim the reward?]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully subjugating crew member Koala. Do you wish to claim the reward?]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully subjugating crew member Moda. Do you wish to claim the reward?]
Seven system prompts successively sounded in Reno's mind.
This was the most lucrative battle he had ever fought!
"Claim rewards immediately!"
Without any hesitation, Reno immediately responded.
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully obtaining the reward—dragon level monster cells!]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully obtaining the reward—Imperial Arms: Ten Thousand Mile Flight!]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully obtaining the reward—magic guide rifle!]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully obtaining the reward—Observation Kill!]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully obtaining the reward—Zoan Type: Bee-Bee Fruit, Ancient Species: Murder Hornet Form!]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully obtaining the reward—hellflame axe!]
[Congratulations to the Host for successfully obtaining the reward—Eight Levels of Heaven (First Two Forms)!]
Reno composed himself and looked through them one by one.
dragon level monster cells.
Source: A miraculous cell from the anime "One-Punch Man" that can enhance strength.
After consuming a monster cell, as long as one can withstand its side effects, one can instantly possess the corresponding monster's strength.
"A dragon level monster cells, huh?"
Reno stroked his chin, lost in thought.
If he remembered correctly, monster cells had five levels: God, Dragon, Demon, Tiger, and Wolf.
Given the power levels in the One Piece World, only powerhouses at least at the level of a Yonko commander or an Admiral candidate could withstand the side effects of a dragon level monster cells.
Anyone weaker would surely die if they ate it.
However, Reno would never let The girls on his ship consume dragon level monster cellss.
While monster cells could temporarily enhance the user's strength, they would also change the user's physique and appearance.
The sight was too horrible to behold.
Reno felt a chill just thinking about it.
Teigu: Mastema.
Source:
In the anime "Akame ga Kill!", to consolidate his long-term rule, the founding emperor, with unimaginable financial and political power, gathered the world's top artisans. Using legendary super-dangerous species as materials, along with various rare metals and lost secret arts, he forged forty-eight unreplicable weapons, known as "Imperial Arms!"
Ten Thousand Li Flight: Wing-type Imperial Arm.
It grants the user the ability to fly, and its feathers can be used as arrows to shoot down enemies.
"Divine Feathers."
"This one's not bad."
Reno muttered to himself, nodding with satisfaction.
Although the description was simple, since Ten Thousand Li Flight was one of the forty-eight Imperial Arms, its power should not be underestimated.
He would see which of The girls it suited and give it to her later.
magic guide rifle.
By injecting different elemental attributes, it can fire corresponding elemental bullets.
After system optimization, all elemental bullets come with Sea Stone effects and can hit Logia-type Devil Fruit Users.
"Hold the trigger to charge, compressing energy to release a more powerful magic beam, with an Admiral-level upper limit."
"It simultaneously possesses two attack modes: long-range sniping and wide-area attack."
"It can be used with Haki coating."
"Made of special materials, it cannot be destroyed or corroded."
"Nami, Doll, Reiju."
These were the first names that came to Reno's mind.
From the description, any Logia Devil Fruit User, or a special Paramecia type like the Doku Doku no Mi, would be suitable for the magic guide rifle.
Being able to unleash Admiral-level attacks, it was definitely a good item.
Reno put it away with satisfaction, eager to look at the next reward.
Observation Kill!
Reno didn't need the system to explain this; the moment the prompt sound fell, he felt a new power within him.
It was as if it was innate.
As is well known,
In the One Piece World, those who can awaken Conqueror's Haki are already rare.
And those who can master Conqueror's Haki Coating are even fewer.
Above that, a higher-level application of Conqueror's Haki, Observation Kill!
So far, the only one who has mastered this skill is Shanks, one of the Yonko.
Once Observation Kill is released, it can block the enemy's Observation Haki perception, turning them into deaf and blind.
"I wonder what comes after Observation Kill."
Reno mused to himself.
He didn't believe that Observation Kill was the end of Conqueror's Haki.
Just like that ancient robot in the original work, after so many years, it still contained Joy Boy's Conqueror's Haki.
With his current level of Conqueror's Haki, he certainly couldn't achieve that.
If he could raise his Conqueror's Haki to Joy Boy's level, sweeping through Mary Geoise would definitely be easy.
With a hint of anticipation, Reno's gaze shifted again, looking at the next reward.
Zoan Type: Bee-Bee Fruit, Ancient Species: Murder Hornet Form!
"Human-Beast Form."
The user's upper body is covered with dark purple cuticles, a sharp proboscis extends from the face, and the arms can transform into giant bee legs covered with venomous barbs, capable of grappling and piercing attacks.
Flapping the wings can create a sonic boom, allowing for extremely fast flight and instant surprise attacks.
"Beast Form."
The body size surges by several meters, the entire body is covered in a hard exoskeleton, and the head has huge scythe-like mandibles that can easily bite through steel.
The tail's venomous stinger is half a meter long and stores lethal venom.
Once it stings an enemy's body, it will continuously release toxins, causing severe pain and organ failure.
"Can summon swarms of Killer Bees and control them at will."
"The user possesses sensory abilities far beyond ordinary people, which can complement Observation Haki."
"That powerful?"
Staring at the purplish-black Devil Fruit before him, its surface covered in spiky protrusions and spiraling patterns, Reno let out a soft exclamation.
Zoan Type: Ancient Species is just different.
The only drawback was that once this Devil Fruit was eaten, the transformation wouldn't be very attractive.
Reno didn't dwell on it and directly threw it into the system warehouse.
He would give it to whoever fancied this Devil Fruit at that time.
If no one wanted it, it would just gather dust in the inventory.
The sixth reward—hellflame axe!
The only large item among all the rewards.
Reno meticulously examined the imposing battle-axe before him.
Its overall length was several meters, the axe body was wrapped with chain-like crimson patterns, and two scarlet demon gems were inlaid at the grip.
The axe blade was an irregular crescent shape, its surface covered with twisted flame totems, and black flames faintly spilled from its edges.
Core Abilities:
"Flame Jet."
After the user injects stamina and Haki, the axe blade can spray dark flames, continuously scorching the enemy's body.
"Flame Shaping."
The user can shape flames into different forms, such as giant snakes wrapping, shields blocking, chain restraints... thereby controlling them to launch attacks.
"Armor Penetration."
The hellflame axe comes with an armor-piercing effect, effectively countering defensive types and strong Armament Haki users.
"Good stuff."
Reno's lips curved into a slight smile, his heart filled with joy.
The only minor flaw was that it was too large.
Unless he used Life Return, he couldn't use it at all.
"It would suit the Giant, though."
Reno eyed the dimensions of the hellflame axe and quickly came up with an idea.
If he remembered correctly, the Giant warrior Gerd was also a beautiful woman.
And she specialized in using a giant axe.
Truly worthy of the system.
Reno sighed inwardly.
He didn't even know where Gerd was right now, yet the reward suited for her was already in place.
In fact, the Paramecia: Momo Fruit in the system warehouse was also something he had saved for Gerd.
With both the Momo Fruit and the hellflame axe, Gerd's strength would be unimaginable.
After putting the hellflame axe into the system warehouse, Reno looked at the last reward.
The first two forms of Hachikyuten!
Source:
An ultimate martial art from the anime "Star Driver," hailed as the strongest martial art in the universe.
"That awesome??" Reno frowned slightly, a look of suspicion on his face.
If he learned Hachikyuten, wouldn't he easily dominate the One Piece World?
At that time, he'd punch an Admiral with one hand and kick a Yonko with one foot.
Even Imu would become a plaything.
"Too bad it's only the first two forms, not very useful."
Reno pouted, decisively giving up.
With only two forms, Hachikyuten was not as effective as the Navy Six Styles.
