Pirates of the Navy Thunder God

Chapter 76 The Relics of the Thunder Swordsman

[Later comer, no matter who you are, if you can leave alive, please take my sword with you - Thunder Swordsman, Hughes Moore]

After searching through the smelly rotten meat, Ron only found this "last will" sealed in an iron barrel, written with blood as ink and bone as pen. The handwriting was very sloppy, with intermittent strokes, which showed the writer's state at the time. Therefore, Ron had to guess and finally recognize all the words.

"Thunder Swordsman, Hughes Moore..."

Ron carefully recalled the comics he had read and confirmed that there was no information about this person. However, he was able to go deep into the snake's belly and almost kill the giant snake. Even if he was weak, he was enough to gain a foothold in the new world. So the sword left by such a strong man...

Ron looked up and stared silently.

He found the source of the giant snake's ability to spit thunder. After all, the heart whose blood was almost turning into blue plasma looked so unique. Even Ron at this time did not dare to underestimate the thunder power contained in it. It was accumulated with the help of its huge body, and the qualitative change caused by the quantitative change!
The giant snake drew electricity from its heart, and then, through a series of transformations that he couldn't understand, spewed lightning out through its mouth.

Perhaps this is why the giant snake has never used venom even though its blood is extremely poisonous. In order to spit lightning, its venom sacs and even venom ducts have to compromise to adapt to the lightning, and under the high temperature of lightning, any toxin will lose its activity.

The source of this lightning power is the unknown magic weapon that has penetrated into the heart.

The hilt of the sword is purple and black, and it is definitely not made of metal or any other material. Because it is not something that ordinary materials can do to remain immortal under the high temperature of lightning for a long time. In the center of the sword is a gem that keeps flashing with lightning. Every time the heart beats and contracts, a stream of lightning like a small snake spreads out from the gem and rushes into the heart along the sword. Then, as the heart beats and squeezes, the current spreads throughout the body along the blood vessels.

The giant snake's body seemed to have adapted to the intensity of the electric current after a long period of running-in. This lightning, which was powerful enough to destroy the activity of cells of carbon-based life forms, not only did not burn the blood vessels, but instead filled every cell it passed through with electric current.

However... although it seems that the two have formed a strange balance, as the user of the Thunder Fruit, Ron can conclude that if it were just like this, the giant snake would definitely not be alive today!
No matter how strong the resistance of normal life forms to lightning is, it cannot rewrite the common characteristics of carbon-based life forms. The fragile cell tissues can withstand it for a while but not for a lifetime. Under the repeated burning of lightning, they will only slowly collapse. The carbohydrates will be completely oxidized and decomposed, and the water will all evaporate, leaving only a small amount of minerals, which will then be carbonized, commonly known as a charred corpse.

Although the thunder power emanating from the gem was rare for the giant snake's huge body, it still could not withstand the accumulation of power over the years!

"…So, this is why you climbed up the mountain to get struck by lightning?"

In order to avoid being roasted to death by the increasing lightning in its heart, the giant snake had few options. First, it could force itself to evolve over tens of millions of years, adapt to the flow of lightning, and spray out the excess lightning stored in its body... It seemed to have done it, although it paid the price of being a venomous snake that could not spray venom.

Second, it uses external lightning to guide the remaining electricity in its body into the earth. Before the current is strong enough to burn it to death, its strong body perfectly limits the leakage of current, and only when external lightning strikes can the electricity be pushed out of its body.

From this scene, Ron understood two things.

First, it is not that the giant snake race has the ability to swallow and spit out lightning, but the unknown long sword in its heart forces it to learn this ability.

Secondly, the giant snake race he had been looking for did not exist at all. The thousand-meter-long white snake that was struck off the cliff and dismembered by wild beasts was the smaller white snake in front of him.

As for the reason why the giant snake was not dead, Ron pondered silently and muttered to himself.

"Sure enough, this is the principle of snake shedding its skin?"

By shedding the old dead body, then reforging another body from the corpse and crawling out... This is unscientific on Earth, but in the world of One Piece... hehe!
If the giant snake could talk, Ron would ask it: "Do you know Orochimaru?"

"Tsk, forget it."

The giant snake's footsteps can be put aside, the focus now is the sharp blade in front of us!
Just by looking at the hilt that could remain brand new in the thunder, Ron could conclude that even if this sword was not one of the supreme swords, it must be a magical weapon that was not inferior to the supreme sword! In addition, the mysterious gem that could release thunder was priceless!
"Hughes Moore, right? I agree to your request!"

Grabbing the hilt with one hand, an electric current bounced back, causing Ron to shudder. Feeling the numbness in his palm, Ron smiled happily: "Great! I just happen to be short of a weapon. Even if you don't tell me, I will take it away!"

hum...

As if in response to Ron, Hughes Moore's head, which had long been rotten and unrecognizable, suddenly fell to the ground and rolled around.

laugh……!!

Boom! !

When the long sword was pulled out, what spurted out was not blood, but thunder!
……

Outside, the giant snake suddenly widened its eyes because the pain in its body had eased. It felt that something in its heart had been pulled out!

Although this would prevent it from actively seeking lightning strikes to relieve its pain, the moment its heart was broken, it would also kill its life force. In this case... it would be better not to pull it out!!
This is a scam!
Hiss! Its life force was cut off, and its biological instinct made it struggle madly.

Bang...bang...boom!!
The giant snake's eyes were filled with despair, and the intense pain made it keep hitting its head against the ground in an attempt to relieve the pain. When faced with pain and scars, primates would cover their wounds with their hands, and big cats would lie down and lick them with their tongues, but snakes without hands and feet could only do this when they were in pain, twisting their bodies like they were breakdancing. When all the creatures on Hell Island went crazy because of the strong sense of oppression emitted by the Hell Island Crab that was about to wake up, the giant snake was like a hardworking excavator master, constantly digging the ground.

at last!

The surface soil on the back of the Hell Island Crab was dug through by it, revealing the ground underneath which was forged from steel. The giant snake's head smashed through the thick steel coating and fell into a toxic molten pool that exuded a foul smell.

These highly toxic mixtures are prepared for the Hell Island Crabs. They can only serve as sedatives for the Hell Island Crabs, but for a "little snake" like it, they are no different from magma and it is simply unable to resist!
hiss! !

With a shrill scream, the giant snake twisted wildly in the venom pool, and the flesh and blood on its body melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye. The scene was extremely terrifying. The strong muscles and scales could not protect it at this time. It struggled in vain for a few times, and then the blood melted away, revealing Ron who was hiding in its body with a confused face.

"Fuck!!"

Do you want to drag me down with you? ! !

Without time to think, the deterrent power brought by the poisonous liquid made Ron shudder. Ron didn't want to touch the breath of death that would kill anyone who touched it! While the venom had not completely melted the giant snake, Ron plunged his head into the blue heart of the giant snake, pulled it off and put it on his body. Then he exerted force with his legs, stomped on the ground continuously, and instantly stepped out a crack and pit in the muscle tissue of the giant snake.

Navy Six Styles, Shave!

but!

The giant snake's strong muscle tissue was like soft dough, crushed by his foot! The venom from the outside softened and dissolved all the muscles in just a few seconds, and the foul-smelling corrosive and toxic solution below quickly surged up, melting everything in its path!
Ron, who was standing on empty air and without any force, was unable to reach his maximum speed. He didn't know how deep this poisonous lake was, and whether this force was enough. But at this moment, he had no choice but to do his best.

As expected, the giant snake's strong heart melted very quickly in the surrounding solution like butter meeting a hot knife. It flew only a dozen meters before being completely corroded by the terrible poison.

Ron's heart twitched when he saw this, and without thinking, he set up his own electromagnetic barrier.

hum!
With a buzzing sound, the venom was temporarily repelled. But even so, the venom still persisted and tried to penetrate the barrier. Ron had to reduce the range of the barrier and increase the defense strength to barely compete with the venom.

Finally, the view ahead became bright, and Ron, despite the electromagnetic barrier, turned into a ball of lightning and rushed out.

Pfft!
Wow!
"Oh...oh...I'm scared to death!"

Standing on the ground again, Ron released a thunderbolt to shake off the remaining venom on the barrier, leaning on his knees and breathing heavily. He didn't expect that just drawing the sword would bring him a life-and-death crisis.

As an elemental being, he is not afraid of corrosion, but as a "human" he is afraid of poison.

Although his self-healing ability can decompose toxins, the upper limit is not high. A mere thunder mosquito cub can cause him to have diarrhea. This venom is obviously not of the same level, and Ron dare not test it.

…………

Everyone, the tree eating setting is set.

Last night, when I was playing World of Warcraft, I talked with a group of kids in the guild about whether the Thunder Fruit could allow flying. After an hour of paddling, we got the answer.

Although Oda did not explicitly state that the natural type can fly, including the Flame-Flame Fruit and the Thunder Fruit, which are almost weightless after elementalization, the normal phenomenon of heat energy being converted into kinetic energy does not make sense in the One Piece world. Enelu's ability to stay aloft may be a special ability he developed, or it may be a natural ability of the Thunder Fruit.

However, all kinds of unscientific and anti-human settings have appeared in the world of One Piece. Why can't normal settings that conform to scientific logic be established?
This is the truth.

After a day of careful consideration, the tree decided to change the setting that "the protagonist's Thunder Fruit can only temporarily float by taking advantage of its extremely light weight after elementalization" to "flying by generating thrust through the high temperature of lightning".

Of course, the content of the previous article will not be contradictory, and it only needs to be modified after a few chapters of preparation.

Including the part where he got on the Garp ship, even if he could fly, facing the vast Qinghai, the protagonist at that time did not have the physical strength to support him to find the next island, not to mention the problem of proficiency, so there is no contradiction between the previous and the following, just the wording needs to be modified.

　　over!
