No kidding, even Rocks would have to offer me a cigarette.

"Thank you for saving me... As the saying goes, a life-saving grace is impossible to repay! I can only offer this..."

Tianyue Shi didn't finish her sentence; she simply stared at the domineering man with her large, fluttering eyes filled with adoration.

"My lord... my name is Tianyue Shi... I am a time traveler from 800 years ago. May I ask how to address you, my lord?"

Luo Hou ignored the Japanese woman in front of him who was waiting for him with a nervous and expectant look on her face.

Because at this very moment, he had already received the information transmitted back by the system after absorbing the new Devil Fruit power.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully absorbed the Paramecia-type Time-Time Fruit ability! 100% (Awakened)!]

He has successfully mastered the power of time!

What surprised Rahu the most was that Tengetsu had actually developed the Time-Time Fruit ability to an awakened state.

However, considering that her Devil Fruit must have reached the awakened level to allow her to travel through 800 years of time directly, it's safe to assume that her Devil Fruit power must have been at the awakened level to achieve this.

However, after obtaining the Time Fruit, Rahu could certainly develop even more novel techniques based on it.

After all, compared to the pitifully little physical strength that Tianyue had!

Rahu's powerful physique can certainly withstand more energy-consuming attacks.

After reaching a certain strength.

It can even reverse time and restore yin and yang!

However, this idea may not be achievable for the time being.

Although Rahu considered himself extremely powerful, he was still somewhat lacking in ability to achieve this level.

"My lord? Are you listening to me?"

"Moshi moshi? Is there something I did wrong?"

Seeing that Rahu in front of him did not reply, Tengetsu also seemed a little flustered.

She quickly pressed her long, straight legs together tightly, adjusting her posture to be more standard and dignified.

"Okay, I understand."

"My name is Luo Hou. You can call me according to your country's customs."

Rahu looked at the Japanese woman in front of him who was trying her best to maintain her dignified demeanor and revealed a knowing smile.

Putting aside the facts, Toki's appearance is definitely in the top ten or higher in the One Piece world.

Especially her naturally long, light green hair flowing in the wind, and her unique gentle temperament that is so special to Japanese women, are absolutely stunning!

Although Rahu has been at sea for so long, he has never had such an idea.

But I would never admit to being a father-in-law without any desires.

I was just busy getting revenge and killing the Celestial Dragons before, I didn't have time for all this lovey-dovey stuff~

It's different now.

After the World Government's trump card was exposed, Rahu also realized very clearly that he absolutely could not confront the World Government head-on with his personal strength in a short period of time!

To completely eliminate the Celestial Dragons, we must establish a more powerful government than they are!

Furthermore, it must possess sufficient technological power to withstand the terrifying attacks from Uranus, the King of the Heavens!

Of course, the most crucial thing is...

Luo Hou himself thought that since he had transmigrated to the world of One Piece, then... Nami, Robin, Boa Hancock, Kalifa, Berekka, and even Shirahoshi weren't out of the question—why not give it a try?

......

Chapter 178 Becoming Bigger and Stronger

"What? A brat suddenly appeared out of nowhere, trying to steal it?"

"Honestly, if you sincerely begged me, maybe I could let you have a little bit of the leftovers!"

"The one who dares to steal food from my hands hasn't even been born yet! Men! Kill him and throw him into the sea to feed the fish!"

The pirate captain's tone grew increasingly hostile; the duck that was about to be snatched away was about to be forcibly taken from him, and his anger had been completely ignited!

As soon as the words were spoken, the pirates, who hadn't reacted yet, suddenly raised their gleaming swords and prepared to charge!

However, before the group of pirates could even take a step forward!

A thunderous roar, as if it were ringing in one's ears, exploded on the spot!

A dazzling bolt of lightning appeared at Rahu's fingertips, its brilliance surpassing even the blazing sun in the sky!

It was as if the entire world was locked in place by this flash of lightning!

Suddenly, the bolt of lightning tore through the air, followed by a deafening roar!

Under Rahu's precise control, the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit accurately struck the current pirate captain!

Before he could react, a powerful electric current burned a bloody hole through his forehead, killing him instantly!

The pungent smell of blood, along with the aroma of meat being baked in the oven, filled the surroundings.

Tian Yue, standing before Luo Hou, was utterly astonished, her small mouth slightly agape, revealing an extremely obvious expression of surprise.

She knew that a domineering man like Luo Hou must be exceptionally powerful.

But she never imagined that the evil guys who had been hunting her down for so long would be killed so easily!

For a moment, amidst the strong smell of blood, Tian Yue could only retreat continuously, stretching out her small hands and tightly gripping Luo Hou's clothes, unwilling to let go.

Rahu calmly reached out and comforted the frail Japanese girl who was clinging to him, her delicate body trembling slightly with fear.

"I heard you're heading back to Wano Country, right? It just so happens that my final destination on this trip is Wano Country. If you'd like, we can set off together~"

Luo Hou tried his best to speak slowly and calmly so as not to sound so evil; otherwise, it wouldn't be good if he scared away this little fangirl.

After all, Kaido is probably engaged in a fierce battle with several families in Wano Country right now.

If we can bring Tianyue Shi, a local, back to take charge of the overall situation this time...

Therefore, controlling Wano Country shouldn't be so difficult.

Of course, if we rely solely on hard power...

Rahu alone could certainly slaughter tens of millions of people in Wano Country, leaving corpses strewn across the land and staining the blue sea with blood!

However, doing so would mean losing the control that was mentioned at the beginning, and thus the meaning of the entire Wano Country.

Instead of killing all these people who are living comfortably, it would be more practical to control them and force them to work for life.

Just like those 100,000 Japanese soldiers who were sent to Siberia to grow potatoes after World War II.

Luo Hou had heard that after that winter, the potatoes in the Soviet Union grew to be incredibly round!

It would be such a waste not to make good use of such perfect human resources!

As for the Japanese girl Amatsuki Toki, who plays a significant role, it would be perfect for her to help her family better control the entire Wano Country!

"Really? I'm going to Wano Country too... Would you really be willing to take me with you, sir?"

Tengetsu, who was initially somewhat afraid of the twitching corpse lying on the ground, suddenly brightened up when she heard that Rahu was heading to Wano Country!

"Of course you can~ But since you're on my island, you'd better behave yourself~"

Rahu's lips curled up, revealing an extremely wicked smile!

Compared to the days when people were constantly shouting for war and killing, and blood was spilled everywhere at the drop of a hat, this is a far cry from the past.

Luo Hou now prefers to control the development of power from behind the scenes.

"This servant...this servant will be obedient...I will definitely not hold you back..."

"But what about the rest of the bad guys?"

The girl hesitated as she looked at the group of human traffickers and pirates in front of her, their eyes filled with fear as they retreated one after another.

"It's okay~"

"Someone will take care of them."

Rahu stretched out his palm and let the girl hug him tightly to his chest. Then a colorful cloud slowly appeared and carried the two of them directly to the island in the sky.

Is this the legendary man who can ride on auspicious seven-colored clouds?

It's so perfect, I really want to touch it...

No! Ah Shi, you need to learn to be reserved!

As a woman, you absolutely cannot be so promiscuous and lack manners!

Ahhhhhh~

I can't take it anymore! I want to be reserved, but he's just so perfect...

Feeling this uniquely enveloping sensation, a special warmth suddenly welled up in the girl's heart, and her face turned bright red because of the crazy thoughts in her mind.

Standing atop the clouds, the girl gripped Luo Hou's strong, powerful hands tightly, shaking and rubbing them back and forth, wanting to get closer to the domineering man who was already deeply etched in her mind.

She inhaled the man's unique scent through her nose.

The girl's heart was filled with a warmth and sense of security she had never experienced since her time travel 800 years ago.

Upon feeling the soft touch in his palm, Luo Hou immediately knew that the situation was absolutely secure.

Although Tianyue has not yet made a direct statement.

But if you still can't win over the other party when this happens, you might as well just go find a block of tofu and bang your head against a wall.

Although the characters from the original story are somewhat out of place.

But Rahu did this for a better viewing experience.

After all, for an anime like One Piece that has been renowned worldwide for over 20 years...

Character fans around the world are certainly different, but the most obvious commonality among these comic book readers who like different characters is one!

That is, Momonosuke must die!

Even Blackbeard, a pirate who would stop at nothing for the Dark-Dark Fruit and even kill his own father, seems somewhat worthy of praise in the face of a repulsive creature like Momonosuke.

This time, they directly snatched Tianyue Shi away!
