I have the Flame-Flame Fruit, I'm invincible!

Either the power of the soul fire was too great, instantly killing the spider's soul;

Either the fire of the soul cannot remain deep within the soul.

Either the soul fire remains uncontrollable deep within the soul...

There are many difficulties.

So Dick really envied the old lady's Soul-Soul Fruit.

They were also deeply saddened by the old lady's ability to waste the fruits of her labor.

With the Soul-Soul Fruit, soul control is a piece of cake; if he has strong development skills, Dick could even try to develop the Lich's Life Box from D&D.

Why bother with the Soul-Soul Fruit and Homies? It's clearly a god-tier fruit with maxed-out survival, unpredictable, and dangerous abilities.

But it doesn't matter. If the Godhood Plan succeeds, the Soul Flame will definitely evolve and its power will be greatly increased.

By then, it will probably be comparable to the Soul-Soul Fruit, no, it will definitely be stronger than the Soul-Soul Fruit.

Dick encouraged himself.

The Soul Fire is bound to surpass the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit.

After a series of events, three months later, thanks to his exceptional comprehension, unparalleled talent, and the combined power of the Flame-Flame Fruit, he achieved his goal.

Soul control has finally been successfully developed.

Dick had a sudden thought.

The next moment, a ghastly white flame rose up, the spider trembled all over, and kept screaming.

Even a three-year-old child can feel the spider's pain from its shrill cries and trembling body.

That was pain from the soul.

In a daze, the spider began to touch the ground with its head, trying to faint, but it couldn't; the spider began to bite its own body, using the physical pain to cover up the pain in its soul.

invalid.

Even death is a luxury.

Dick sat quietly.

At this moment, he was not as gentle and refined as usual, but revealed an unusual coldness.

30 seconds later.

The spider fell to the ground and died.

His face was extremely ferocious, as if he had suffered great torment in the world.

Even though Dick had reduced the power of the Soul Fire to a minimum, it still burned the spider's soul to ashes in 30 seconds.

"Next comes the key question: can seawater break the Soul Fire?"

As Dick was thinking, another spider plunged into the sea.

A pale white flame burned silently in the ocean.

It was tiny, but fish and shrimp within a radius of tens of meters swam away from the flames that terrified them.

Successful.

If seawater is ineffective, then sea stone should also be ineffective.

Dick waved his hand with a wicked, no, excited gesture.

He knew he would succeed.

A sudden wave of fear washed over Sabo.

That's right, it's the Soul Flame on the Divine Flame Ranking.

Known as the most dangerous flame, it directly affects the soul.

Others may think that the Divine Fire Ranking is fabricated and full of the fantasies of ignorant people.

But now, Sabo already knew that the flames on the Divine Fire Ranking would inevitably appear in the world one by one.

After all, with the Flame of Evolution and the Flame of Life appearing, it's only natural that other divine flames would follow.

Chapter 28: Inviting guests to a banquet for beheading, his subordinates treated like dogs

"What's wrong? It's just a soul fire," Dick looked up, regaining his gentle demeanor.

"What, do I look like a great demon?"

“Of course not.” Sabo shook his head.

Although some situations were quite bad, Sabo admitted that Dick was still kind-hearted.

is a good man.

At least, Dick won't misuse the power of the Soul Fire.

"Power is never divided into good and evil; only those who wield power have a sense of good and evil."

"Pirates are portrayed as evil in government propaganda. Don't you also want to go to sea and become a pirate?"

“That’s true,” Sabo said with a smile.

The gloom in my heart has completely dissipated.

Dick conducted several more experiments over the next few days.

This time, the test subjects are pirates.

These days, we lack everything, but we don't lack pirates.

The soul fire from the failed plan to become a god was not the Soul-Soul Fruit after all.

Dick's soul control is more like a forced control method such as a life-and-death talisman, and he cannot know all the thoughts of the person being controlled.

Considering the extraordinary physical strength, willpower, and fearless spirit of the powerful figures in the One Piece world, it's questionable how many people could accept being controlled.

“But that’s enough,” Dick said with a smile.

He felt that he could make friends now.

……

Somewhere in the Kingdom of Goa.

The three boys were currently undergoing training, chattering away.

Absolutely hellish training.

At this moment, Garp, whose beard was still black, kicked Ace away.

And there's Sabo, and Luffy.

That's right, Shanks is gone.

However, the three of them cannot stop training.

So Garp stepped in.

Also interesting.

Shanks had just left when Garp arrived. The two just missed each other.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, or if one of them is avoiding the other.

With Ace and Luffy around, it's only natural for Sabo to join. He was immediately recognized as Garp's grandson.

Completely disregarding Saab's opinions.

Garp: User of the Grandson-Grandson Fruit.

Luffy and his two companions were thrown directly into the valley below.

They're still separate.

Considering Ace and Sabo's strength, and the fact that they were both carrying 2000 pounds of weight, it was clear that Ace and Sabo were quite powerful.

"This is to train your survival skills," Garp said, arms crossed.

In addition, Garp underwent many other special training sessions.

For example, put them in a balloon and let them rise into the air;

Throw them into the woods teeming with wild beasts.

Essabo was swimming in a lake full of piranhas;

In any case, Luffy and his two companions experienced a completely different kind of training.

"Damn it, old man, you're trying to kill someone! Shanks would never do that!" Ace yelled.

"Damn redhead," Garp said angrily.

My own adorable grandson.

The gentle, kind, cheerful grandson who loves the Navy was led astray by that despicable redhead to want to become a pirate.
