One Piece: Start as a mythical beast, practice to become stronger.

"Devil Fruit?"

Charlotte Linlin, upon seeing the object in Jin-An's hand, frantically felt around the spot where she had placed the Devil Fruit earlier, confirming that it was indeed gone.

"Are you courting death?!"

She was always the one who robbed others, and no one, absolutely no one, had ever managed to steal something already in her grasp!!!

"I don't intend to leave my life here."

Jin-An looked at the fruit in his hand, curious. He'd heard that Devil Fruits tasted worse than shit, but perhaps if he swallowed it whole in one go, it might be better.

Seeing Jin-An's intention to eat the fruit, Charlotte Linlin softened her tone and said gently, "Put down that fruit, and I can trade you for something else."

Jin-An glanced at her, as if to say, 'Do you think I'm stupid? To trust a pirate's words.'

That look infuriated Charlotte Linlin. If being gentle didn't work, then she'd resort to force.

Taking a deep breath to prepare himself, Jin-An closed his eyes, took a bite, and then, before his tongue could react, he 'crunch, crunch' swallowed the entire Devil Fruit in an instant.

"Prometheus, burn that guy to death!"

Seeing that what was done couldn't be undone, Charlotte Linlin was filled with boundless hatred. She pulled out her strongest homie from her hat and infused it with her soul.

The sun, which had originally resembled a crude drawing, instantly transformed into a raging ball of fire.

Charlotte Linlin grabbed Prometheus, the sun, and swung it back and forth, the vortex of rotating flames rushing towards Jin-An with extreme heat.

"Crack!!"

Ten thousand meters in the sky, the sun was instantly covered by dark clouds. A strong wind swept across the land, and a bolt of lightning struck from the sky.

"Boom!!"

The falling lightning struck the vortex of flames, causing a violent collision.

Instantly, the shockwave from the explosion spread outwards, carrying with it fragments of rocks and trees, destroying everything in its path.

This… this is the destructive power of a strong person in this world, generated by a single attack!!

Kuma, Ivankov, and those still lingering nearby were blown away by the intense storm.

"This is too dangerous, Kuma."

Ivankov pulled his head out of the dirt, still somewhat shaken, and looked into the distance with an extremely grave expression.

"Jin-An… Jin-An is still inside…"

Kuma wasn't in much better shape, covered in dust, as if he had just crawled out of the mud.

"He'll be alright!"

Ivankov said words that even he didn't believe, but they had more important things to do.

"But… but…"

Kuma didn't want to abandon his friend like this, even though they had only known each other for a few hours.

Ivankov looked at the strong and kind child before him and sighed, "We have many things to do. Cheer up."

"He'll definitely be alright!" He said this to Kuma, and also to himself, "We will definitely be alright."

Kuma looked at the paw pads that had grown on his hands after eating the fruit. He had just used that ability.

"With this ability, we can succeed!"

After speaking, Kuma and Ivankov ran into the distance, using his paw to send away everyone he saw.

…

"Kid, you're pretty resilient."

The battle between Charlotte Linlin and Jin-An continued.

The situation wasn't one-sided. Although Jin-An was at a disadvantage, he could already block Charlotte Linlin's violent attacks.

"The Azure Dragon Fruit has made you a bit more durable, huh?"

Charlotte Linlin's eyes were red. That was clearly her thing, but now it was being used against her.

Jin-An, who had been taking a beating, was equally annoyed by the tall beauty in front of him. They could have retreated safely after snatching the fruit, but this unexpected obstacle appeared.

Not only was the plan completely disrupted, but it also hurt like hell. (It's hard to get injured and bleed, but the pain isn't lessened)

He glanced at the system panel. His physique attribute had now reached 79 points (including the points from the limited-time card). It seemed that 80 points was a major threshold, and the limited-time attributes would be somewhat diluted.

But now he could already be considered invulnerable to blades and spears.

But from the feeling, he was just a little more durable.

He wondered how Kuma and the others were doing.

"Daring to be distracted while fighting me!!"

Charlotte Linlin reached out and tugged on Prometheus's face, then grabbed it in her hand.

"Eat this! Heavenly Fire!!"

She poured her power into Prometheus and then hurled it towards Jin-An.

"Waaahhhhh, eat this!!"

Prometheus screamed as it pounced on Jin-An, the scorching heat causing the air density to decrease, creating distortions.

At this moment, Jin-An, who had been standing still, moved…

He remained calm, facing the overwhelming heatwave without changing his expression. He looked up at the dark clouds, brought his two fingers together, and pointed them towards the sky.

A beam of light from his fingers entered the clouds, and the sea of clouds churned.

Subsequently, a trembling sensation caused by electrical fluctuations spread through the air, and thick, purple lightning bolts rolled like giant snakes in the clouds. An invisible aura slowly spread.

Charlotte Linlin, who was the first to sense the danger, stood frozen in place. It wasn't that she didn't want to dodge, but she felt an aura locking onto her, leaving her nowhere to escape.

"Prometheus!!"

Charlotte Linlin shouted, wanting it to return and defend her… but it was too late…

Prometheus's attack hit Jin-An head-on, but it wasn't happy. It also sensed the trembling aura in the air.

"Crack!!!"

A loud explosion came from the sky. The long-brewing lightning seemed to have received a signal, transforming into a lightning dragon, pouring down from the sky and directly hitting Charlotte Linlin, who was defending with her sword.

"Rumble!!!"

As the lightning dragon fell, the island shook violently, unable to withstand the intense impact.

Everyone standing on the island was knocked to the ground by the sudden earthquake. This was one of the few pauses in this game.

"Could this earthquake be a punishment from heaven for those who are taking pleasure in this murderous game?"

Many people who were injured by the earthquake, feeling the pain caused by the power of heaven and earth, were ecstatic.

"The Celestial Dragons and nobles are gone. Have they been punished?"

They needed to establish a belief to support their broken bodies through this calamity.

…

"Mama!!"

The panicked Prometheus, not caring that Jin-An's skin was already charred and seemed unable to resist, flew quickly towards the place where the lightning struck.

It was unknown whether Charlotte Linlin was dead or alive.

"Ssshhh…"

The pain from the burns made Jin-An unconsciously twitch his mouth.

Because his move required too much preparation time, he couldn't avoid Charlotte Linlin's attack and could only use a strategy of trading injuries for injuries.

However, the pain in his body made him not want to use this strategy again.

Strictly speaking, this move wasn't completed by Jin-An's own power. He borrowed the method Sasuke used to create Kirin, using a wisp of aura to trigger the power of nature, thereby achieving his goal.

The Devil Fruit's ability is determined by the user's development method, in Jin-An's subconscious, the Azure Dragon is one of the 'Four Symbols of the Sky' and the 'Seven Mansions of the East'.

Possessing endless possibilities, there are many directions to choose for development.
