Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

Inside the Naval Headquarters cemetery,

Swish!

Zefa and Chiga appeared in front of two tombstones, one large and one small.

Zefa's eyes flashed with grief as he saw the two tombstones before him. He turned to look at Chiga with a puzzled expression.

Chiga remained silent. He extended the space underground, and with a thought, two coffins appeared side by side on the ground.

Zefa couldn't stay calm this time, because that was the coffin containing his wife and son.

But out of trust in Chiga, he did not get angry. He simply walked forward slowly, reached out and gently brushed his hand over the two cold coffins, his eyes already filled with an unyielding grief.

Chapter 217 The Awakening of the Yellow Spring Fruit!

Seeing Zephyr lost in grief, Chika sighed and slowly spoke.

“Zeff, I’ve found a Devil Fruit these past few days.”

Zefa paused in his stroking of the coffin, and asked in a trembling voice,

"What is the name of this fruit?"

"The Fruit of the Underworld"

The name "Yomi-Yum no Mi" (Revive-Revive Fruit) sent a jolt through Zephyr. He didn't know anything about the Yomi-Yum no Mi, but since it contained the word "Yum," and considering Chiga's series of actions, he was quite taken aback.

Something he never dared to even think about exploded in his mind.

He stiffly turned his head, his dry lips moving as he asked,

What abilities does it possess?

Chiga did not respond, but simply stretched out a hand, from which a chilling aura of the underworld rose.

The chilling aura of the underworld drifted toward Zefa, and even though he was a Zoan-type Mythical Beast user, he couldn't help but shiver.

Qianhe gripped the handle tightly, dispersing the chilling aura of the Yellow Springs. He said in a deep voice,

"It granted me the power to connect with the Underworld, and it also made me... the Lord of the Underworld!"

Due to its unique properties, the Yomi Yomi no Mi (Revive-Revive Fruit) has appeared only a handful of times throughout the history of One Piece, and no one has ever awakened it.

(It's uncertain whether Brook was the first Devil Fruit user.)

And now, this fruit is awakening for the first time in this world!

Chiga's eleven tomoe suddenly magnified, beginning to rapidly rotate around the patterns in her eyes, a terrifying ocular power brewing within them.

Zefa stared at Qianhe, somewhat stunned.

This was the first time he had seen Chika awaken a Devil Fruit using her eye power, and even a wisp of that aura was enough to give people a sense of awe from the bottom of their hearts.

A surge of chilling Yellow Springs energy erupted from Qianhe's body, instantly freezing a large area.

Zefa also felt that he couldn't withstand the cold air.

He pushed the power of the Bull Demon King Fruit to its limit, entering a semi-beast state.

That wasn't enough; he also covered his body with a layer of jet-black Armament Haki to barely withstand the onslaught of the Yellow Springs' chilling aura.

Even so, several hard ice spikes were still hanging from his two horns.

Zefa's nostrils were constantly exhaling hot air as he stared in disbelief at Chiga ahead.

He had seen Devil Fruits with freezing properties before. For example, one of Aokiji's prized students was a Logia-type Ice-Ice Fruit user.

He knew the power of the Ice-Ice Fruit better than anyone; it was a fruit that could rival Akainu's top-tier Fire-type Logia-type fruit, the Magma-Magma Fruit!

Among the Logia-type Devil Fruits, there is also the Snow-Snow Fruit, which possesses the property of freezing, but in terms of freezing, it cannot compare to the Ice-Ice Fruit at all.

But judging from the chilling aura of the underworld that Chiga is currently displaying, this freezing ability is even stronger than Aokiji's!

Because Zephyr had sparred with Aokiji before, the cold air released by Aokiji was definitely not as cold as Chika's Yomi Cold Air, at least it wouldn't have left him in such a sorry state.

What Zephyr didn't know was that the Yellow Spring Cold was merely an additional ability of the Yellow Spring Fruit; its true power had not yet been revealed.

The magatama spinning in the Rinnegan stopped, leaving only one magatama in the left eye still shimmering faintly.

At that very moment, the Yomi Yomi no Mi (Fruit of the Underworld) awakened.

The scattered chilling energy of the underworld converged into Chiga's left eye like rivers flowing into the sea, then vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.

The previously frozen area melted away instantly, as if nothing had happened.

Only Zephyr and Chiga knew that what had just happened was not a dream.

Qianhe slightly opened his mouth, and a wisp of cold air was exhaled from his mouth, forming ice crystals in the air.

Zephyr also reverted to his half-beast form. He walked up to Chiga, looked into Chiga's Rinnegan, and said,

"No matter how many times I see those eyes, I feel like they shouldn't even exist in this world."

Upon hearing Zephyr's assessment of the Rinnegan, Chiga couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.

The Rinnegan is indeed not a product of this One Piece world; Zephyr is absolutely right about that.

Of course, Chiga wouldn't tell anyone about this; it was his biggest secret.

Zefa shifted his gaze away from Chiga's Rinnegan. The Rinnegan, which had just awakened the Yomi Yomi no Mi, gave him a chill that went straight to his soul. If he looked any longer, he felt like he was going to suffer.

Thinking of the sudden burst of Netherworld Cold Energy from Qianhe earlier, which looked exactly like a loss of control over power, Zefa couldn't help but ask.

"Chiga, what exactly happened just now? I felt like you couldn't control your power anymore."

Chiga shook his head and explained,

"No, I was just awakening the Yomi Yomi no Mi (Yellow Spring Fruit), and I've succeeded."

"Nani!?"

Devil Fruit awakening? And it was successful?

Zefa felt that his worldview had been challenged once again.

As we all know, developing a Devil Fruit is not an easy task in itself, let alone awakening it.

Those who can awaken a Devil Fruit are all exceptionally gifted, and they must also achieve a complete synergy with the Devil Fruit; both are indispensable.

Zephyr's foundation was already very strong, and he was also very compatible with the Ox-King Fruit, but even now, he felt that "awakening" was still a long way off.

This is still the result of Zephyr having the Warring States period as a living reference.

But what about Chiga?

He said he absorbed the Yellow Spring Fruit in the last few days, but it awakened today!

If word got out, it would drive all ability users insanely jealous!

Even Zefa, the teacher, couldn't help but scream wildly in his heart.

"Good heavens! You're so damn biased!?"

Zefa's expression was complicated. He glanced again at the eleven tomoe in Chiga's Rinnegan and asked,

"So you already possess eleven awakened Devil Fruits?"

"No, there are a few that I don't need for the time being, so they haven't awakened yet."

"..."

Listen to this: "There are a few," "They haven't awakened because they don't need them for the time being."

Is this human language? !

If Zephyr were a human from Earth, he would use a very classic word to describe Chiga: Versailles!

Unfortunately, he wasn't one, so he ran out of words.

Zefa once again fell into a deep self-doubt.

Chiga glanced helplessly at Zephyr, whose head was drooping, and said,

"Teacher Zefa, have you forgotten that your master's wife and... junior brother's coffins are still outside?"

Speaking of this, Zefa quickly turned around and ran to the two coffins. He carefully examined them and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the coffins had not been damaged by the cold air from the underworld.

Chiga followed to the two coffins, bowed to them, and then looked at Zephyr and said softly,

"Professor Zephyr, open the coffin. Let me end this tragedy!"

Chapter 218 The Art of Reincarnation in the Underworld!

A dazzling light shone from Chiga's Rinnegan. With a wave of his hand, he lifted the two coffin lids, revealing two skeletons, one large and one small, inside.

Immediately afterwards, he clasped his hands together, forming the "巳" mudra, and said in a deep voice,

"Heretical Path: The Reincarnation Technique of the Underworld!"

In the underworld, a black vortex appeared in the sky.

Two yellow, cloud-shaped souls suddenly seemed to be drawn by something, breaking free from a sea of ​​spirits and drifting towards the black vortex in the sky.

Only after the two souls entered the black vortex did the black vortex gradually shrink until it disappeared.

real world,

As Chiga released Yomi Reincarnation, the remains of Zephyr's wife and son were enveloped in a ball of green energy. Nourished by this energy, the two skeletons began to condense flesh and blood.

In no time, the two skeletons completely transformed into the appearance of a woman and a little boy. Their faces were rosy, and it was impossible to tell that they were dead.

They lay quietly in the coffins, as if they were asleep.

The sight of life and death, flesh and bone being restored, stunned Zefa as if struck by lightning. He instinctively took two steps back, not daring to move forward for a moment.

This is not over yet.

The black vortex reappeared in the sky above the mortal realm, from which two yellow clouds burst forth—the souls of Zephyr's wife and son.

Instead of rushing back into their bodies, they drifted toward Zefa, who was still in shock, and circled around his body.

Zefa felt a long-lost sense of intimacy from these two souls, especially the smaller one; it was a feeling of blood ties from the soul.

Even though they looked like just two yellow clouds, Zephyr knew what they were.
