Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

Captain Black Crow was originally a small-time pirate with two million Berries. After completing two contract missions and receiving the contract rewards, his strength increased, but he was no match for Smoker.

The gap is too big.

[Task completed, reward issued]

Chapter 150, the Trial Tower, is officially open!

Smoker's mind conjured up images of the reward.

Poison attack mastery.

It originated from a group of street fighting tyrants who wielded sharp weapons and were willing to try anything that could help them win the fight.

Using any means necessary to achieve victory goes against traditional fighting techniques.

Poison needles, poison stings—anything that comes into view can be used as a weapon.

"What a despicable bunch, just like pirates!"

Smoker sensed the contents of his mind and felt disdain.

This fighting philosophy is completely contrary to his own beliefs.

only……

He raised his palm, and a layer of purple smoke emerged. He simply held it lightly over the pirate who was bound by chains, and it made a sizzling, corrosive sound.

Highly toxic poison.

It actually merged directly into the body?

As the mastery of poison attacks progresses to Lv. level, eventually, the blood, bones, and muscles throughout the body will be infused with potent poison, resulting in a strong poisoning effect with every attack.

"In this case……"

With a cigar in his mouth, Smoker had an idea and tried to spread the faint poison.

In a flash,

The white smoke surrounding him gradually changed color and contained trace amounts of toxins.

"It can actually be integrated into a Devil Fruit?"

Smoker's eyes widened, and he nearly choked on his cigar, coughing repeatedly.

All along,

Although the Smoke-Smoke Fruit is a Logia-type, it is pitifully weak in both attack range and damage compared to the Logia-type fruits of the Admirals.

While there are differences in the development of fruit abilities, it is also related to the type of fruit.

Ice-Ice Fruit, Magma-Magma Fruit, Glint-Glint Fruit...

Both fruits possess terrifying abilities capable of triggering natural disasters, but the initial destructive power of the Smoke-Smoke Fruit is pitifully low.

However, if combined with toxins, the weakness of the Smoke-Smoke Fruit, which has a low lethality, can be compensated for.

Just thinking about the pervasive poisonous fog, like a death zone, and the scene of all the pirates dying from the poison...

Smoker silently put aside his previous thoughts and muttered, "No ability is good or bad. As long as we can capture pirates and protect the safety of civilians, even poison is fine."

【Contract Quest (2/5)】

Mission objective: Hand over 500 million Berries.

Task Reward: Poison Attack Mastery (50 Proficiency Points, 50 Skill Experience Points)

He returned to the naval warship, tossed Captain Black Raven to his men, and said, "Get me five million Berries. I'll make up the difference when we get back to Loguetown."

When venturing out to investigate the games in the East China Sea, it's impossible to carry a large amount of wealth.

There are some standing funds on board the warship.

The subordinate navy did not raise any objections. Although it was not in accordance with the procedure, it was not the first or second time that their colonel had broken the rules.

After the five million Berries were retrieved,

[Task completed, reward has been issued]

The purple smoke surrounding Smoker visibly thickened.

New mission: Hand over a famous sword.

"Cough cough..."

Smoker couldn't help but glance at Tashigi's famous sword at her waist, but ultimately resisted the urge to come over.

Forget it, I'll try my luck at the knife shop in Loguetown after the investigation is over.

……

Seagulls flew around everywhere.

Not only seagulls, but also some panting albatrosses, as if they had flown in from a very far place.

They are the emperors of the underworld, the president of the World Economic News Agency, and special birds bred by Morgans, capable of flying over mountains and seas to obtain first-hand news from all over the world.

The news of the mysterious Projection Fruit user in the East Blue has been relayed back to headquarters.

Morgans would never let such big news slip by, so he set up Den Den Mushi (snail communication devices) all over the world, preparing for a global live broadcast.

"Even Hawkeye is here?"

“That’s… Smoker, a rising star in the Navy.”

Through Den Den Mushi (snail phone), Morgans searched the crowd, hoping to dig up a news story that would shake the world.

He was riding on the back of a gigantic albatross, heading towards the East China Sea at top speed.

at this time,

Suddenly, a faint light shone from the bottom layer of the black tower.

The black tower, which was originally impossible for any instrument to detect its internal condition, gradually became transparent, exposing everything inside the lowest level of the tower to everyone's view.

Pollution monster.

Countless corrupted monsters originating from the Soul-Hooking Palace filled the lowest level of the tower.

The entire lower level of the tower is extremely large, comparable to some giant islands. The broken walls and ruins, the territory of the underworld, are filled with a strong aura of ghosts and death.

Paper money rained down from the sky, a dark shadow sobbed softly, and eerie ancient buildings with upturned eaves stood in rows...

The sheer visual impact alone sent chills down the spines of countless pirates.

Is it hell?

"Demons! Demons are imprisoned inside the Trial Tower. This is the Tower of Hell!"

Even the most ruthless pirates of the past couldn't help but tremble.

In the world of One Piece, there are also stories about ghosts and the afterlife. For example, Gecko Moria's island was built based on death legends.

However, most people treat ghosts as a joke and no one has ever taken them seriously.

Who hasn't done something wrong?

Especially for pirates who burn, kill, and plunder, they might feel fear when they first start killing. But as their killing skills become more and more proficient and they kill more and more people, yet they never suffer any retribution, no one will believe in the ethereal evil spirits.

Until now,

The pitch-black tower exposes the core of humanity's fear of death to the public eye.

"Don't be afraid, evil spirits are just some terrifying-looking monsters, just kill them!"

The fish-man dragon was initially frightened, but quickly recovered and said fiercely.

"The fruit of the contract that grants power, the giant tower that imprisons evil spirits, the activities that shroud the entire East Sea—who exactly are you...?"

Smoker puffed on his cigar impatiently, eager to find out who was behind all of this.

Regardless of him,

Everyone present, as well as the people behind the video Den Den Mushi, the Marine Headquarters, the emperors of the underworld, powerful pirates, and kings of various countries—all eyes were focused on this Trial Tower area in the East Blue.

They all shared the same idea as Smoker, though their thoughts differed.

Most pirates were just watching the show, hoping the mastermind behind it all was a ruthless tyrant. The navy was on high alert, and the kings of the East Blue trembled with fear, lest the upheaval in the weakest sea disrupt their kingdoms.

"Welcome everyone to the first event in the One Piece world: the battle for the title of Lord of the Coast!"

The very center of all focus,

At the top of the pitch-black tower, Fang Yi, dressed in an exquisite aristocratic suit inspired by the world of One Piece, appeared out of thin air, blending in with local customs.

"Appeared!"

Whether they were pirates or marines, everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the mysterious man on the giant tower.

In just a few days, the entire East China Sea's marine population and navy have gathered together, creating the current tense situation.

The culprit behind all of this is the mysterious man before us.

What exactly does he want to do?

Chapter 151 A Reward That Shocks the Pirate World

Looking down from his vantage point, Fang Yi surveyed his surroundings and felt very satisfied.

Among these pirates and marines, there are some promising talents with considerable potential.

After all, whether you want to go to sea as a pirate or join the navy, you must have talent that surpasses that of ordinary people, which is a kind of selection process in itself.

Once they realized what was happening, everyone looked eagerly up at the top.

"Is it you, the one who spreads the fruits of contracts?"

"What terrifying ambition! What exactly is your purpose in doing this?"

There are doubts, and even more questions.

Most pirates and marines had not yet come into contact with Fang Yi and were unaware of the significance of the Reincarnation Game. Only Hawkeye, who completed the contract mission effortlessly and became a player, had a brief exchange with the game's merchants.
