We all time-traveled at the same time, but why isn't anyone human?

Chapter 94 The Great Four Divisions Era!

In an instant, the world fell silent.

What is meant by "the fruit of the whole world awakening and splitting apart"?

That guy with the red nose, is he really that dedicated? Even when faced with the temptation of making a wish with the Dragon Balls, he still insists on maintaining his clown persona.

That's so passionate!

The Holy Land, above Mary Geoise.

When Im heard the dragon make this wish, his eyes widened and he made a meme-worthy expression.

ha?

He was already prepared to endure humiliation and hardship to welcome the new king.

Now they're telling him that the clown with the red nose wished for everyone in the world to awaken the Chop-Chop Fruit?!

What does this mean?

Is the intention to indirectly kill all ability users?

-

However, if he really wanted to kill a power user, he could have just wished for them to be killed directly; why go through all this trouble?

Or is it...?

It has some other deeper meaning.

Im's expression shifted repeatedly, making it impossible to fathom the true thoughts of the person making the wish.

However, what he really wanted to know was...

Such an absurd, such an unbelievable wish.

Can that seemingly omnipotent dragon really do it?

In the East China Sea, Hawkeye, adrift alone on the ocean, paused slightly after seeing the wish that Bucky made.

A fruit that has split into four pieces?

Pakistan?

He remembered this intern in Roger's crew; he was a guy who wasn't very capable, but sometimes he just had a stroke of good luck.

but.

What impressed Hawkeye even more than Bucky himself was the wish he made.

Everyone awakens the Chop-Chop Fruit!

As everyone knows, the Chop-Chop Fruit is a natural nemesis of swordsmen, making them virtually immune to all slashing attacks.

If the dragon could truly grant this outrageous wish, it would be an absolute nightmare for the swordsmen of this great sea.

but.

It is also a form of spiritual practice.

"The realm of swordsmen includes cutting through iron and slaying dragons. Now, it wouldn't be unreasonable to add another realm: cutting through pieces."

Hawkeye closed his eyes, feeling not only no resistance to the awakening of the Chop-Chop Fruit, but also a sense of anticipation.

He has held the title of the world's greatest swordsman for a long time.

For so many years, he has always been a lone wolf, hunting pirates and challenging strong opponents. Even Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, had a legendary battle with him, with the outcome still undecided.

It can be said that Hawkeye has reached the end of the path of swordsmanship. Even Shanks is slightly stronger than him in terms of "Haki". In terms of pure "swordsmanship", he is not as good as him.

Hawkeye craves challenges.

He longs for a challenge that can push him to the brink, a challenge that even his swordsmanship "cannot" overcome.

That's why he taught Zoro without reservation in the original work, hoping to cultivate a swordsman who could defeat him, thus honing his swordsmanship and enabling him to reach new heights.

And now.

After everyone awakens to the Chop-Chop Fruit, many powerful individuals will inevitably come to challenge him.

His swordsmanship finally had the opportunity to attempt to step into the next elusive realm, after reaching the levels of "cutting iron" and "cutting dragons"—

Cut off, torn to pieces.

Revolutionary Army Headquarters.

Looking at the wish that Bucky made in the sky, Dragon was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, laughing so hard that tears almost came out.

"Bucky, hahaha, he's really a comedic character."

He had heard of this intern in Roger's crew; he was said to be a lucky but lovable, comedic character.

Looking back now, it's definitely hilarious.

Beside him, Ivankov stamped his feet anxiously, looking at the dragon with a worried expression, and said.

"Dragon, you still have the mood to laugh."

"If that dragon really grants this wish, then—wouldn't all of us ability users be dead?"

Devil Fruits are the curse of the sea upon their users.

Aside from extremely special beings like "Blackbeard," anyone who swallows two Devil Fruits will die from their body exploding.

If Shenron really grants Buggy's wish, then all of them who have already eaten a Devil Fruit will die.

"Hahaha, Ivan, you're taking this way way too seriously. Do you really think that dragon would allow something like this to happen?"

Seeing Ivankov's panicked state, Long laughed even harder, a confident expression on his face, and said.

"I don't know what kind of being the dragon is, whether it's a god of this sea or something else, but I always feel that it, like us, has a 'heart'."

"Heart?"

Ivankov looked at the dragon with a puzzled expression.

They all had firsthand experience of how powerful that divine dragon was. Such a being, which transcended all mortals, even if it had a heart, probably wouldn't have the same emotions as them, these insignificant mortals.

"Yes, heart."

Long nodded, looking at the divine dragon with a hint of longing and admiration on his face, and said.

"Didn't you realize that all the rules it sets and the things it says are designed to give more people the opportunity to realize their dreams?"

"Is there... is there?"

Ivankov asked, looking completely bewildered. When the dragon appeared, he was so shocked that he was completely lost and didn't have the mind to think about what was so special about what the dragon said and what rules it promulgated.

"Perhaps it's just wishful thinking on my part, but I always feel that the dragon is on 'our' side."

Long smiled and shared his speculations about the Divine Dragon with all the high-ranking members of the Revolutionary Army at headquarters.

"It could clearly use universally accepted rules of the human world, such as 'slaughter,' 'battle,' 'world domination,' and 'bloodline inheritance,' to select the slots for making wishes."

"But in the end, it chose a method that was entirely based on luck, giving everyone a chance to make a wish."

"Doesn't this prove that Shenron's original intention was to encourage us to make more wishes, to see more people's dreams and aspirations collide, and to witness the birth of more joy?"

"For that reason, he wouldn't let us (the ability users) suddenly die, would he?"

"this----"

Ivankov looked troubled, feeling that this was still too far-fetched.

"I know that explanation is indeed far-fetched."

Long noticed the concerns of everyone present, but he remained optimistic and said with a smile.

"But even if the worst happens, and we really die because of the awakening of Devil Fruits, for many more people, it would still be a great thing."

In an instant, many of the revolutionary army officers in the naval headquarters fell into deep thought.

In this great age of piracy, countless countries are embroiled in war, and countless ordinary people have died under the sword.

But what if everyone awakened the Chop-Chop Fruit?

Swords and blades came slashing, and heads were severed from bodies.

Gunfire erupted, and bodies were torn apart.

In the four seas, where both "Haki" and "Devil Fruit users" are scarce, and in the countries along the first half of the Grand Line, the Chop-Chop Fruit can greatly reduce the mortality rate of ordinary people.

Those pirate crews that rely on numbers and equipment to bully others will be defeated by civilians with "immortal bodies".

This is the real reason why the dragon laughed from the bottom of its heart.

"I don't know whether this fragmented era is good or bad for the upper class."

"But for ordinary people, being torn apart is their hope for survival."

"Bucky, you've really created the best comedy that everyone can laugh at!"

.

Long smiled and clapped his hands, signaling everyone to get back to work.

Whether he dies after his wish is fulfilled or not, it will not affect the work of the revolutionary army.

He is gone.

There will be successors.

Boom!

Just as the whole world was stunned and speechless by Bucky's thunderous wish,

Lu Ping's avatar instantly split into hundreds of millions of rays of light in various parts of the pirate world, using the "Soul-Shaping Fruit" to imbue each person's soul with the power of the "Chop-Chop Fruit".

These things are not difficult for him now.

Through Lu Ping's research and development of abilities in both the Curse Return and Douluo Continent worlds, and after sharing memories, Lu Ping in the One Piece world now has a deeper understanding of abilities such as "Devil Fruits".

As mentioned in the original work, the power of a Devil Fruit is bound to the soul of the user, and in essence, it is a kind of modification of the soul.

However, more ingenious than innate abilities like "techniques" and "martial spirits" is that Devil Fruits are more like a vessel for some kind of will or spirit, or, to use a more mystical term, an embodiment of "rules" and "concepts".

The Nika Fruit, for example, abstracts the concept of rubber to the point of being as abstract as a comedy comic, allowing for imaginative and illogical things.

Another example is the Hobby-Hobby Fruit, which possesses rule-level power. After turning others into toys, it can even erase the memories of everyone in the world about him.

The Chop-Chop Fruit is actually not weak. In fact, every Devil Fruit is strong and has a very high potential.

Even the most common "Zoan-type Devil Fruit" (non-Mythical Zoan type) is a conceptual embodiment of this type of animal. If the user can develop it to the extreme, it can evolve to an exaggerated level.

Like the Gum-Gum Fruit, the Chop-Chop Fruit is a common ability in comedy comics. If it were developed to its fullest potential, it might actually be able to achieve something like in Tom and Jerry, where no matter how much you hit it, it can't be killed and can be reassembled into a new form no matter how many pieces it breaks into.

Closer to home.

In short, Shenlong Luping is also very much looking forward to seeing how far the strongest people in the entire pirate world can develop the Chop-Chop Fruit.

Their development of the abilities of fruits and rules will be recorded in his database, allowing him to have a deeper understanding of this kind of world rule.

Drum Island, Drum Kingdom, at the home of Dr. Doriel.

"Waaaaah, Dr. Doriel—after I die, please, please piece together my deer legs, antlers, and rump, and bury me next to Dr. Hiluluk's grave—"

"Waaaaah, I—I'm so unwilling to accept this! We haven't invented a panacea yet—waaaah!"

-

At that moment, Chopper, who looked like a reindeer, was in front of Dr. Kureha, tears streaming down his face, explaining his final wishes.

Chopper thought that after eating the "Human-Human Fruit - Commoner Form", he would definitely explode and die a horrible death after Shenron made him awaken the Chop-Chop Fruit again.

Just as Dr. Gureva was engrossed in drinking and ignoring the needless reindeer's worries...

Suddenly.

Chopper's deer head suddenly fell off.

Before Dr. Kureha could react, the deer head suddenly turned around and said to Dr. Kureha while crying and laughing.

"? Doctor Kureha, I think I've awakened my Devil Fruit power! I—I'm not dead!"

As it spoke, it split off all its hands, feet, and tail, and ran around the room having a great time.

"Hahaha, this is so interesting, such a wonderful feeling! It feels like my body was always like this. Doctor Doriel, look at how I take off the antlers, isn't it fun?"

"Don't pick them, they're horribly ugly."

Dr. Kureha waved her hand impatiently, her right hand flying out to put Chopper's antlers back on.

She also awakened the power of the Chop-Chop Fruit.

"Hehe, speaking of which, the dragon awakened our abilities, but we didn't die. Why is that?"

Chopper chuckled foolishly, maneuvering the fragments of his body to fly around like a child who had just received a fun toy.

"I don't know. That dragon is mysterious and unpredictable. Nobody knows what it can do."

Dr. Gureva downed another bottle of wine, her eyes slightly narrowed as she gazed at the sky where the dragon had once appeared.

"However, if Devil Fruits are a curse from the sea on people, then the appearance of Shenron should be a blessing from the sea on people."

Fishman Island, Dragon Palace Kingdom, within the royal palace.

"Hurry up, hurry up and coat the princess with the coating, otherwise, she'll be in danger when she awakens her Devil Fruit."

The gigantic mermaid king Neptune is currently directing a group of fishmen into the Hard Shell Tower to coat Princess Shirahoshi.

Unfortunately, Princess Shirahoshi's size was far too large, almost reaching the height of a giant, making it extremely difficult to coat her with a bubble membrane to prevent seawater from entering.

-

"Father, I'm fine. Even if we mermaids awaken Devil Fruits, we can still breathe underwater. At most, we'll just feel weak for a while."

Bai Xing lowered her head obediently and tried her best to slip into the layers of bubble wrap.

"No, others can tolerate it, but you can't. Have you forgotten Vander Deikun IX's pursuit of you?"

Neptune shook his head and said with a serious expression.

Vander Decken IX is a pirate who proposed to Princess Shirahoshi ten years ago. He possesses the "Target-Target Fruit" ability, which allows any object he throws to track a target he has touched indefinitely until it is shot down or blocked by an obstacle.

Ever since Vander Deikun shook hands with six-year-old Shirahoshi ten years ago, he has been relentlessly throwing various weapons at her, trying to force her to accept his marriage proposal. He is an extremely possessive and eccentric man.

If Shirahoshi becomes powerless due to the awakening of her Devil Fruit and happens to be hit by Vander Decken's weapon, unable to dodge, it would be too dangerous.

Therefore, it is imperative to coat Shirahoshi with the glaze before Shenron grants her wish.

"Wait, Father, I think I've awakened—"

Suddenly, Bai Xing's huge tail detached from her body and flew to the hall of the palace, where it clapped happily.

On the other side, a group of fishmen and mermaids also split their heads, bodies, and tails into countless small pieces, soaring freely in the sky.

For a time, the entire Dragon Palace Kingdom was filled with fragments of human and fish bodies, a truly comical sight.

"It's amazing that we're not weak all over—the power bestowed upon us by the dragon wasn't cursed by the sea."

King Neptune looked at Princess Shirahoshi, who had a happy expression on her face, and also showed a gratified expression.

In any case, after awakening the Chop-Chop Fruit, Princess Shirahoshi no longer has to worry about being hunted down by Vander Decken.

The weapons he threw could never hit him against the power of the Chop-Chop Fruit.

"Father, with this ability—does it mean we can now separate our human and fish bodies and go see the world on land?"

Suddenly, after seeing the numerous body fragments flying in the sky, Princess Shirahoshi smiled innocently and asked King Neptune a question.

Mermaids and fish-men have always suffered from discrimination by humans, but the direction of discrimination against these two groups has diverged into two different branches.

Humans treat the ugly fish-men with disgust, oppression, and torment. The fish-men have a hard life on the surface, but they don't have to worry too much about being coveted.

Even characters like the evil dragon, who ruled Cocoyasi Village in the East Blue for so many years, were not captured or enslaved by humans.

Humans, however, have a completely different attitude towards beautiful mermaids, regarding them as luxury items that are fiercely sought after.

Even the high and mighty Celestial Dragons desire to possess beautiful mermaid collectibles. As a result, many fish-men still dare to move around in the surface world. However, any mermaid that shows its face, even a relatively ordinary one like "Cammy," will immediately be targeted by slave traders and auctioned off for an astronomical price.

This situation has widened the gap in combat power between fish-men and mermaids. Fish-men like "Jinbe the Knight of the Sea" dare to train and grow stronger in the human world, but mermaids can only stay on Fish-Man Island in the deep sea for their entire lives and will never see the real sun.

And now.

The appearance of the Chop-Chop Fruit gave the merfolk hope.

From today onward, the way of life for all mankind will undergo earth-shattering changes.

At that time, various body parts will be floating everywhere. These mermaids will only need to leave their feet about 200 meters underwater to travel freely in the human world.

As soon as Princess Shirahoshi finished speaking, the entire palace fell silent, and all the mermaids wore expressions of shock and astonishment.

Even King Neptune was stunned by White Star's words, his eyes widening in disbelief for a long time.

"Um—did I say something wrong?"

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Bai Xing's face flushed red, and she lowered her head and whispered.

"No, you're not wrong."

Neptune then came to his senses, a serious expression appearing on his face. He waved his hand, indicating that he would call a meeting to discuss the matter.

"The awakening of the Chop-Chop Fruit is a tremendous change for fish-men, mermaids, humans, and all races on this sea. No one knows how much change it will bring."

"When the body can be broken down into countless fragments, and can be freely split, deformed, and reassembled, will racial distinctions still be so important?"

"Perhaps, the day when our mermaid race can see the sun is not far off."

Neptune gazed into the distance, and at that moment, he couldn't help but recall Queen Otohime.

That great woman, who was willing to give her life for the ideal she wanted to achieve.

Now, it seems that this will truly be achieved in a strange way that defies imagination.
