Chapter 83: Spring Festival Sign-In! Sharingan Awakening
Chinjao's technique was his proudest move—a derivative of his self-created Eight Impact Fist secret art, and the only one capable of piercing the Treasure Ice Mountain.
He was full of confidence in this technique.
Even if he couldn't defeat the young man before him, he should at least force him to dodge.
Just as Chinjao was thinking this,
The moment Lotte pressed his hands together, the forest behind him suddenly trembled.
A dragon with flowing whiskers and furious eyes burst forth from the ground. The massive wooden dragon surged forward with its scaly jaws wide open.
BOOM!
The moment its jagged fangs opened, pitch-black Armament Haki coated its surface.
The enormous dragon head charged straight toward Chinjao, carrying the force of thousands of tons.
Everyone knew the true power of the Wood Dragon Technique—it could even suppress the Nine-Tails.
Its effect was naturally extraordinary!
BANG BANG BANG!!
Chinjao's cone head pierced through part of the dragon's head, but his body was violently smashed away, crashing through trees and rocks like dry weeds.
Then,
Accompanied by a series of sonic booms, layers of shockwaves erupted in disbelief. Chinjao's figure was sent flying.
As Lotte withdrew his hands and the wooden dragon stopped,
Chinjao was finally slammed away by the dragon head. He rolled across the ground several times before crashing into a massive boulder and coming to a stop.
"Cough! Cough cough!"
Chinjao gasped for air. For a moment, he thought he was going to die.
That wooden dragon had smashed him—along with his full weight—such an incredible distance. The power was simply too terrifying!
What frightened Chinjao even more
Was that the instant the dragon head bit down on him, he felt his life force draining rapidly. If it had lasted even a second longer, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
This was the strength of the Azure Emperor?!
Beside them, the white cat sat on the ground and suddenly clapped its paws together.
The soft pads clapped against each other, making the cat look extremely delighted.
This was the first time Olvia had witnessed such an astonishing battle. Though it was completely one-sided dominance by Mr. Lotte, it still filled her with longing.
If only she could have such powerful strength.
Lotte brushed the dust off his clothes, looked up at Chinjao, and smiled playfully.
"Do we need to continue?"
His Hashirama Cells mastery had now reached over 50%. Techniques like the Wood Dragon could finally display their true power.
Though the consumption was still very high,
This test battle with Chinjao had given extremely satisfactory results in both power and other aspects.
Chinjao waved his hand and gave a bitter smile.
"Forget it. We're not on the same level at all."
"Truly worthy of being a cadre of the Rocks Pirates. It seems I still have a long way to go."
He had nearly been killed just now. If they continued and he made even one mistake, the pillar of the Happo Navy would have to be replaced.
"From now on, the Happo Navy will obey your orders."
Lotte nodded in satisfaction—this was exactly the result he wanted.
"Then the rest is in your hands."
With that, he calmly left while holding the white cat.
A few short days passed in the blink of an eye.
During Lotte's brief stay in the Flower Country, he successfully gained a new identity.
Current Vice-Pillar of the Happo Navy.
On the surface, Chinjao remained the pillar, but Lotte now held authority to mobilize the Happo Navy.
Though many pirates were initially unhappy about a sudden high-ranking outsider, when Chinjao explained that Lotte's strength surpassed even his own,
They finally shut their mouths obediently.
After all, on these seas, strength was justice.
Some still wanted to challenge Lotte, but the result was naturally instant defeat.
Even without using swordsmanship or Wood Release,
Pirates of their level were mere ants before him.
After several days of observation,
Lotte had also gained a clear understanding of the current scale of the Happo Navy.
Including Chinjao, there were roughly over a thousand members—most of them cannon fodder.
In the West Blue, a pirate crew of this size was already a colossal force.
With his assistance,
The Happo Navy's future growth potential was enormous.
Once Lotte finished handling these matters,
He left the Flower Country.
...
Nighttime.
The small boat sailed quietly across the sea surface.
The vast starry sky filled the heavens, inspiring awe.
Lotte gazed silently at the distant horizon and let out a soft sigh.
Though his growth speed was quite good, the sign-in rewards lately had been rather unlucky—none of the items were particularly suitable for him.
If this continued, his strength for the God Valley War wouldn't be sufficient.
While Lotte was deep in thought,
The beautiful silver-haired girl quietly peeked at him from the corner of her eye.
She didn't know when it started, but she had fallen for this young man.
No matter how small the chance, Olvia wanted to do everything she could to help him—
No matter what it took.
Lotte naturally saw through her feelings. He didn't mind having a woman by his side, but right now her age was still too young.
So he set the matter aside for now.
While the two were lost in their own thoughts,
The familiar system voice suddenly rang in Lotte's mind again.
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host—Spring Festival has arrived! Would you like to sign in?]
Only then did Lotte snap back to reality. He hadn't realized that Spring Festival had already come.
Since arriving in the One Piece world, he could only roughly estimate time.
Thinking carefully, it did seem about right.
Lotte's gaze gradually became resolute. He mentally selected sign-in once more.
[Ding! Spring Festival sign-in completed!]
[Reward obtained: Improved Sharingan (One Tomoe)]
[Description: Possesses powerful ocular abilities including observation, copying, hypnosis, and more. The wielder gains superhuman insight, can cast and break genjutsu, copy taijutsu. Upon awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan, it undergoes a qualitative change. A bloodline ability that can be inherited.]
[Special Note: Only the strong survive. The weak can only await death.]
Lotte's pupils suddenly contracted, then his heart erupted with wild joy. He subconsciously clenched his fist.
As a dōjutsu from Naruto,
It was on the same level as Wood Release—an absolute cheat ability!
Just as the description said, it possessed extremely powerful capabilities. And once the Mangekyō Sharingan awakened, the power it granted would be simply unimaginable.
Though right now it was only a basic one-tomoe Sharingan,
Its synergy with his existing abilities would still cause an immediate surge in strength.
Not to mention when it fully developed in the future—
Wood Release combined with Sharingan would produce combat power that was simply beyond comprehension!
