Chapter 58 - Chapter 57: The Tragic Plot is About to Unfold

Miyuki Uchiha: "Have you already arrived in the Sabaody Archipelago?"

Daemon: "It's all over."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Huh?"

Esdeath: "We went there together—if someone like Rayleigh turned out to be a real problem, then we've got bigger issues than we thought."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Haha, true. Sister Queen, your current strength isn't what it used to be."

Luo Hao: "I wonder how Silvers Rayleigh died... and what kind of treasure did you get by killing him, Daemon?"

Daemon: "I threw him into the sun. The heat was millions of degrees. Nothing left but bones."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Wait, what? You threw him into the sun?"

Sakura Tosaka: "The... sun?"

Luo Hao: "Now hold on... How did you manage that? I know you have Hercules' Belt, but that only boosts your physical power, not to that degree. What other trick are you hiding?"

Jibril: "Indeed, throwing someone into the sun? Even I, a god-killing Flugel, find that hard to grasp."

Erina Nakiri: "Since I joined this chat group, I've been learning so much every day..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "So, Mr. World Aristocrat, are you going to tell us how you did it?"

Miyuki Uchiha: "Honestly, I think His Highness Daemon might be exaggerating. He's no Saiyan or one-punch man—where does he get the strength to toss someone to the sun?"

In the chat, Daemon's claim about throwing Silvers Rayleigh into the sun stirred up a lot of interest.

Even Luo Hao, who had taken the power of gods, and Jibril, a god-killing weapon, couldn't fathom such a feat.

Daemon, however, remained silent and simply shared a screenshot of the treasure he had acquired.

[Meteor Throw]

[Type: Treasure to people]

[Description: Vice Admiral Garp honed his physical prowess throughout his life, making him the best at attacking with throws in the One Piece World. This legendary skill was captured by the "Hand of Hermes" and turned into a fantasy weapon. When used, the enemy can't resist and is thrown anywhere, with speed increasing until they exceed light speed.]

Miyuki Uchiha: "Wait, hold up! What kind of terrifying treasure is this? You can really throw people to the sun?"

Jibril: "Calm down, there's a catch. You need to capture the enemy first."

Luo Hao: "Don't forget, Daemon also has the Hercules' Belt, which makes even gods unable to avoid his grasp."

Jibril: "Ah, I see... when you combine treasures like that, it's practically cheating."

Sakura Tosaka: "Congrats, Brother Daemon!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Ah, Mr. World Aristocrat is getting stronger and stronger~"

Meanwhile, in her world, Kasumigaoka Utaha was getting frustrated. She'd been hitting the gym, trying to improve her physical fitness.

But even when she got stronger, she realized it was futile compared to the power of Daemon's treasures. She longed for the powerful Devil Fruit he'd mentioned earlier.

Looking at Daemon chatting casually with others, Utaha bit down hard on her pen. "Bite you, I want to bite you to death! Mr. World Noble, always leaving me hanging!"

Daemon, unbothered, sent yet another treasure he had obtained.

Infinite Kenshin

Type: Self-use Treasure

Description: Dark King Rayleigh didn't possess the ultimate talent, but his followers mastered the best sword techniques in their world. Under Hermes' influence, this skill became a fantasy weapon. It allows the user to instantly understand any sword technique, then improve and evolve it.

Miyuki Uchiha: "Okay, I'm done! You just keep shocking me every day!"

Miyuki Uchiha: "What is this? This is pure dog-level strength!"

Luo Hao: "At a glance, you can master any sword technique and then improve it... It's the kind of power only a sword god should possess."

Jibril: "Well, it's a good thing I don't use swords."

Sakura Tosaka: "Hmm... there aren't many sisters using swords in the group."

Sakura Tosaka: "But I've seen a lot of heroic spirits who use swords in the Moon World's memory copies. If Brother Daemon ever comes to my world, he could definitely obtain some amazing sword techniques."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "But in the end, swordsmanship is just an added bonus for the world's nobility, isn't it?"

Miyuki Uchiha: "You're thinking too small, senpai!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Oh?"

Miyuki Uchiha: "There are many powerful sword techniques across the omniverse and boundless Chaos, especially in some high-level worlds. In fact, some of them are even stronger than Noble Phantasms! But I don't think we have any of those worlds in our group right now."

Miyuki Uchiha: "By the way, the best sword user in the group right now might be the Grim Reaper Violent Girl, right?"

Sakura Tosaka: "Sister Mei actually left Daemon and went to Sky Island to find something called the Thunder Fruit."

Miyuki Uchiha: "She's looking for the Thunder Fruit? That woman's wishful thinking! With Light-speed Slash + Thunder Fruit, if she finds it... wouldn't she be nearly invincible?"

Daemon: "Invincible?"

Miyuki Uchiha: "Ah... except for you, of course, Your Highness Daemon."

Daemon: "Exactly."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Yamamoto Mei, don't even bother looking for the devil fruit because I'm sure you won't find it! Why not take the time to enjoy the views of another world?"

Yamamoto Mei: "[Picture] Uchiha Slut, how did you know I found the Thunder Fruit?"

Miyuki Uchiha: "Wait, what? There are so many Sky Islands in the One Piece World, but you actually found it already?"

The images in the chat group clearly showed golden fruits shaped like lightning, unmistakably related to thunder abilities.

Sakura Tosaka: "Hmm, Sister Mei really found it!"

Luo Hao: "Thunder power... Even in my world, thunder is a formidable force. And with the Thunder Fruit's ability to transform into an element, it's even more powerful."

Luo Hao: "But isn't there a weakness? The sea... Yamamoto Mei, you already have light-speed abilities. Why would you want to add a weakness like that?"

Yamamoto Mei: "Don't worry, I'll be prepared."

Yamamoto Mei: "[Exclusive Red Envelope for Luo Hao]"

Tosaka Sakura: "Eh, Sister Mei gave the Thunder Fruit to Sister Luo Hao?"

Esdeath: "What does that mean?"

Miyuki Uchiha: "Although the Thunder Fruit is strong, Luo Hao is a god-killer. Why would she need an ability with such an obvious weakness?"

Luo Hao: "...I got the red envelope, and it's definitely the Thunder Fruit."

Luo Hao: "Yamamoto Mei, what's your game here? Did you really send this to me?"

Yamamoto Mei: "..."

On Sky Island, the Grim Reaper Violent Girl was standing speechless, her face frozen in disbelief.

Despite the Thunder Fruit's clear weakness, it remained an immensely powerful ability in the Heavens and Ten Thousand Worlds. Did she really look like someone who would casually give away such a treasure?

Yamamoto Mei: "Including Luo Hao, have you all forgotten about the system cheat you received when you first joined the chat group?"

Esdeath: "Hmm, you mean that?"

Sakura Tosaka: "I remember... it was to enhance something, right?"

Luo Hao: "The enhancement furnace... I almost forgot about that ability."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Haha, it's the ability that's been enhanced seven times and shattered six. It's like a dad-level cheat from a game."

Tosaka Sakura: "I remember Luo Hao also broke the power she gained from killing a god during the enhancement process... it's really unfortunate."

Luo Hao: "...It wasn't a lucky time for me."

Luo Hao: "So Mei, what do you want? Do you want me to help you enhance the Thunder Fruit?"

Yamamoto Mei: "That's right."

Esdeath: "But the chance of failure seems pretty high. If it fails, the Devil Fruit will be completely shattered."

Yamamoto Mei: "It's fine. I can't even eat a Devil Fruit with such a glaring weakness, so it's either enhancement or nothing."

Luo Hao: "Is that so?"

The world of the godslayer, Lushan.

Luo Hao stared at the golden, oddly-shaped fruit in her hand, her fingers tightening around it as she inhaled deeply. "Ying'er, bring me a basin of water!"

She needed to wash her hands before proceeding with the enhancement—no distractions, no mistakes. Yamamoto Mei Mei had entrusted her with this, and she would not disappoint her.

"Yes, Master!" came the flustered reply, and moments later, Lu Yinghua rushed into the room, carrying the basin with an urgency that bordered on panic.

"Alright, you may leave now," Luo Hao said with a casual wave of her hand.

"Huh?" Lu Yinghua froze, her eyes wide with confusion.

She had been expecting a harsh reprimand. In the past, such a delay would have resulted in at least two broken ribs, punishment for her lack of speed.

Luo Hao's brow furrowed as she observed the dumbstruck expression on her apprentice's face. "Is something wrong? Why are you still standing here?"

"Oh, yes, Master!" Lu Yinghua snapped to attention, bowing hastily before staggering out of the room. It wasn't until she was well away from Luo Hao that she allowed herself a quiet exhale of relief.

"The master's temper is… better?" Lu Yinghua muttered, as her eyes widened with realization. "Could it be... the Master has finally reached the age of falling in love? The old, wise figure in her 200s… Could it be... love?"

Before she could further entertain her theory, the voice of the Thunder God boomed through the room.

"Impertinent Eagle!"

The sound of heavy steps reverberated through the air, and a massive, hundred-meter-tall Vajra Lux descended toward her. With a thunderous slap, it sent Lu Yinghua flying across the room.

"Ahhh!" she screamed in terror as she crashed into the wall. "Master! I swear I didn't mean it! I was just... joking!"

Luo Hao sighed, clearly irritated by her apprentice's unrelenting chatter, but her mind lingered on the earlier conversation.

Love? Her? After more than 200 years of existence, the idea felt foreign. She gazed into the mirror, admiring her flawless face—she didn't appear a day older than 18, the timeless beauty of a goddess.

Was she truly capable of love? The thought gnawed at her.

Her apprentice's words rang in her head again: "A woman in her 200s..." Was it possible? Could she, the Queen of the God Slayer, have desires of her own?

Shaking off the errant thoughts, Luo Hao began to consider more practical matters. Love was a distant notion for now.

She had a mission to complete. Strengthening the Devil Fruit was her priority—no distractions, no delays.

After washing her hands, Luo Hao retrieved the long-unused enhancement furnace and carefully placed the Thunder Fruit inside. It was time to put her luck to the test again.

[Congratulations! Thunder Fruit Enhancement Successful.]

A voice echoed in her mind, and her eyes lit up with surprise. It had worked. This time, the enhancement was perfect. The fruit was slightly larger, its golden hue now replaced by a deep red.

[Thunder Fruit +1] [The Thunder Fruit, enhanced, now no longer fears the sea, and the thunder it generates burns hotter than the surface of the sun.]

Luo Hao couldn't hide her delight. Perfect. This was exactly what she needed. She promptly sent the fruit back to Yamamoto Mei Mei with a red envelope and shared the success in the chat group.

Luo Hao: "[Picture]"

Luo Hao: "See? This is the luck of a godslayer!"

Uchiha Miyuki: "Oh my god!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Impressive. Not only did the weakness vanish, but the heat from the thunder is now beyond anything normal."

Erina Nakiri: "I'm not interested in fighting, but I can't help but envy you. This must be the joy of getting stronger?"

Miyuki Uchiha: "I declare that with light-speed + thunder, the Death Violence Girl is officially the second strongest in the group!"

Esdeath: "I'm not quite there yet, but... I admit I'm a little jealous."

Luo Hao: "I still need to defeat Sun Wukong. Hopefully, I'll gain more power then."

Jibril: "Hmph, I can achieve light-speed, and I'm not certain she can outmatch me."

Yamamoto Mei: "Care to put that to the test when you get a chance?"

Jibril: "Definitely!"

Jibril: "Pity I can't kill you... but your limbs could make excellent trophies."

Erina Nakiri: "Uh... why does this suddenly feel so... grim?"

Miyuki Uchiha: "This group is full of battle maniacs. At least they're not focusing on beating up Daemon... yet."

Erina Nakiri: "Yikes. I'm shaking over here."

Sakura Matou: "Sakura-chan is also trembling."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Wait, Sakura-chan... why did your name change to Sakura Matou?"

Sakura Matou: "I don't know... the chat group changed it for me."

Daemon: "I guess the plot's about to unfold, huh? The Matou family's got its sights on you, Sakura, and I suspect even the old bug man might have arrived."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Sakura-chan, run!!"

Sakura Matou: "..."
