From the Wandenreich's escape to One Piece

Quincy have three basic abilities.

The first is spiritual weaponry, which involves manipulating spiritual particles in the external world.

Secondly, there is the shadow, which means constructing space within the shadow.

The third is blood, which is divided into static blood armor and dynamic blood armor.

Static Blood Gear can enhance one's defense, while Dynamic Blood Gear can enhance one's attack.

As a Quincy of the Wandenreich, even if he is just a lowly soldier, he still possesses these three basic abilities.

At this moment, he constructed a small space within the shadow of God Valley, and then began to slowly expand it towards the central area.

At the same time, he can also see the outside world from within the shadows.

This is also the most useful aspect of the power of shadow.

They are very strong in intelligence gathering.

Those hidden in the shadows can easily perceive the situation outside, while those outside are completely unaware of it.

Even if the other party also has the ability to control shadows, they cannot enter the alternate dimension that he created by entering the shadows.

Because the Quincy's Shadow Realm can only be entered by those who are permitted to do so.

So he wasn't worried about being discovered after hiding inside.

About forty or fifty minutes later, he successfully expanded the Shadow Space into the room where Devil Fruits and treasures were stored.

Nine Devil Fruits were prepared for the God Valley tournament. Initially, they were all placed on the most conspicuous high platform, but later they were distributed to several different treasure vaults.

He didn't just explore one treasure trove; he connected the shadows of all these warehouses.

Although he only wanted to eat the Azure Dragon Fruit, he could get his hands on the other eight Devil Fruits as well.

Even if you don't eat it yourself, you can sell it to others, or when you become powerful in the future, you can give it to your underlings.

The treasury is guarded by the navy.

Well, now is not the time to take action. Let's wait a bit longer.

He took a few steps back and began to look outside at the gathering place of the Celestial Dragons.

"That must be Shanks and Shamrock, right?"

Among the Celestial Dragons, he saw two red-haired babies still in swaddling clothes.

He is quite familiar with the plot of One Piece.

I know the red-haired brothers separated at God Valley.

Originally, Figaland Garin, a member of the Knights of God, had two sons with a red-haired woman from God Valley.

But this scoundrel didn't want to take the red-haired woman back to the Holy Land, so he killed her.

Only two children were left behind.

However, during the chaotic battle at God Valley, the two children were taken away by the dragon. Although they eventually managed to retrieve Shamrock, Shanks was lost. He climbed into the treasure chest himself and was eventually taken away by the Roger Pirates.

Is there any chance I can take these two children with me?

Beltz suddenly had this idea.

After all, the talent of these two kids is obvious, especially Shanks, who will become one of the Four Emperors in the future.

If I could bring it with me, it might become a great help in the future.

Of course, bloodline and talent are only part of one's future strength.

It also depends on the teacher.

Roger definitely played a decisive role in Shanks becoming so powerful later on.

So if I'm not good at it, I might even delay Shanks.

But no matter what, they are both good prospects, and if you can take them with you, it will definitely be beneficial to your future.

Well, no matter what, I should focus on myself first. After I eat the Azure Dragon Fruit and get my hands on the other fruits, I'll see if I have a chance to take the two children away.

Beltz has already set his sights on his target.

Both the Azure Dragon Fruit and the Paw Paw Fruit were in Warehouse Number One, so after observing the situation outside, he ran back into the shadows of Warehouse Number One.

And so, that hour passed.

The Celestial Dragons immediately began to act, scattering in all directions to search for the natives of God Valley and the slaves they had brought.

Suddenly, a lot of the central area was empty, with only the guards remaining.

The Navy is truly a loyal dog of the Celestial Dragons, fearing that the Celestial Dragons might be harmed, so they have deployed their forces all over the island.

Not only on the island, but also off the island, there are naval warships everywhere; they have completely blockaded the island.

Beltz hid in the shadows and naturally went unnoticed.

Seeing that it was almost time, he quietly emerged from the shadows of Warehouse No. 1.

There were also naval personnel guarding Warehouse No. 1. When they saw a dark figure suddenly appear inside the warehouse, they were shocked. But before they could speak, Beltz fired an arrow, which struck the naval officer directly in the heart from a distance!

Quincy are skilled in archery, and Beltz is no exception.

The three arrows were fired and took the lives of the three marines in the warehouse without them even having a chance to make a sound!

Although he was just a nobody in the Quincy, he had no problem dealing with the nobodies in the Navy.

"Azure Dragon Fruit!"

He opened the treasure box containing the Azure Dragon Fruit directly.

The Azure Dragon Fruit and the Paw-Paw Fruit are in the same warehouse, and the difference between them is obvious. After all, the Azure Dragon Fruit is the ultimate prize second only to Shakky, and its position in the warehouse can be described as that of a star.

As for the shape... he really couldn't remember it very well. After all, when he read comics before, he only focused on the characters and didn't really remember the shapes of the Devil Fruits.

He'd heard that Devil Fruits were awful, but he couldn't care less about the shit-like taste now. He opened his mouth and took a small bite!

Kouqu!

Having lived in the modern civilized world, Beltz had never eaten anything so disgusting before. The moment it entered his mouth, he couldn't stand it anymore. The nausea he felt made him want to spit out the fruit in his mouth!

Fortunately, this was a Devil Fruit that would grant immense power upon consumption, so he forced himself to swallow a mouthful of the fruit despite the nausea!

You don't need to finish eating a Devil Fruit; just one bite is enough for the devil power contained within to enter the eater's body.

Therefore, he immediately felt a powerful force being generated in his body. The power of the Azure Dragon flowed within him, making him want to roar out!

Awesome! This feels amazing!

As expected of a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, Beltz forcibly suppressed his excitement and dragged the Paw-Paw Fruit and all the treasures in the warehouse into the shadows!

We've taken all the treasures from Warehouse Number One, but there are still a few more warehouses to go!

A total of nine Devil Fruits, and a large amount of treasure—all of these belong to him!

boom!

Just as he was frantically running away with the money, he suddenly felt as if the entire island was shaking.

Rumble!

Numerous explosions were heard coming from the edge of the island.

This is……

The Rocks Pirates are here!

Although he couldn't see the edge of the island, he could tell it just by feeling.

I need to hurry up and take action!
