Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Truth Doctor, Son-in-Law of the Spirit Hall

Purple Pearl smiled, rolled up her sleeves, and said, "This guy is quite my type. He has a beautiful figure. Watch me win him over! Make him my bandit husband!"

Purple Pearl's figure flashed and soared into the sky.

She had also become a god at this time, with ten soul rings pulsating around her body.

In the blink of an eye, they were standing in front of Ladio.

As they drew closer, Purple Pearl stared at Ladio, a look of surprise and uncertainty creeping onto her face.

Because she couldn't see through Latio's aura!

Generally speaking, this means that Latio's strength is above hers!

It should be noted that at this time, Purple Pearl was a god-level powerhouse, and one of the top five strongest pirates in this sea area!

The actress who suddenly appeared to play the role of the Holy Master Latio actually possessed strength surpassing hers?

Purple Pearl was a bit confused. "He... he couldn't possibly really be the Holy Master Latio, could he? He hasn't appeared for so many years, and now he's suddenly showing up on our ocean?"

"No, impossible! We can't be that unlucky!"

"He's probably just an imitator, yes! He just has some kind of soul technique that conceals his soul power! That must be it!"

Purple Pearl cheered herself up.

Otherwise, if it really was the Holy Master Latio, she couldn't imagine the enormous blow it would bring to the pirates.

After all, pirates plunder and pillage at sea, and there are hardly any good people among them!

"You...you find it interesting to impersonate the Holy Master Latio? Do you know that this is illegal? It's blasphemy against the Holy Master Latio?"

Purple Pearl questioned loudly, but her voice inevitably trembled slightly.

Ladio glanced at Purple Pearl, but he wasn't just looking at her as a person; he was looking at her life and destiny.

Her entire life—past, present, and future—was almost entirely presented in Ladio's eyes.

This ability was obtained from the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and he had been studying it for ten years.

Purple Pearl suddenly felt as if she had been seen naked; under Ladio's gaze, she had nowhere to hide.

It was a hard feeling to describe, but she knew it.

The man before me is not an actor, but the real Saint Latio!

She took a deep breath and suddenly shouted down.

"Run! Run!"

"He is the true Saint Latiol!!!"

Purple Pearl's voice reached below.

The bandits on the island were stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that they were not law-abiding citizens; few of them had not stained their hands with blood.

They began to scatter and flee, running towards the pirate ships moored by the harbor.

Begin sailing at top speed into the distance.

Thanks to the development of soul tools, their speed became extremely fast.

Purple Pearl stood in front of Ladio, smiling obsequiously.

Although she was a pirate, she had never killed an innocent person, so she was not worried that Latio would harm her.

"Holy Master Latio, may I ask you, what brings you here?"

Purple Pearl probed.

Ladio ignored her and scanned the fleeing pirates.

Now that he's got his eye on you, you can't escape even if you run to the ends of the earth!

After all, Ladio now possesses almost all truths except for the truth of time.

Seeing this, Purple Pearl panicked even more. It was obvious at a glance that the Holy Master Ladio had his eyes on the pirates!

"Holy Master Latio! You...you cannot attack us pirates!"

Purple Pearl shouted loudly.

Ladio looked at the purple pearl. "Why?"

"Because those who survive at sea are different from those on land! It's about fighting against nature and against other people; only the strong survive! If we are strong, we can live. If they are weak, their lives are left to fate!"

"You can't treat us with worldly laws!"

"It's like a shark eating a person, but would you put the shark in court?"

Purple Pearl loudly questioned.

Ladio paused for a moment, then did not make any further moves.

Seeing this, Purple Pearl breathed a sigh of relief; at least there was still room for negotiation!

She continued, "If you truly possess great wisdom, then let us let things take their course and not interfere with our progress!"

"We pirates number over 500,000! Are you going to kill them all?"

"Furthermore, pirates are like fellow pirates, with their own system. Just like on this island, we exchange resources and enjoy fine wine. Therefore, you cannot punish us like you would any other human being!"

Purple Pearl argued her case forcefully.

Ladio looked calmly at the purple pearl, whose body trembled slightly, but she stubbornly stared at Ladio.

"Okay, I understand."

"Then I ask you, will you follow Purple Pearl's advice and no longer live as ordinary people to evade punishment, or will you continue to live as humans and accept your punishment?"

Ladio's voice echoed in the minds of all the pirates.

No matter where they are, whether they are pirates now or were pirates in the past, they have all heard the voice of Ladio.

Of course, Purple Pearl's words were also relayed to her.

They listened to the whole thing, and with very few exceptions, they all chose the former; no one wanted to be punished by Ladio!

Purple Pearl breathed a sigh of relief, having saved the pirates from annihilation.

Ladio nodded and said, "Very well. Since you no longer consider yourselves human, then you should stop being human. From now on, you will be... fishmen."

Words become law, and as Ladio's words fell, so too did the law come to pass.

At almost the same moment, the islands changed, emitting various colors of light, like tiny light bulbs adorning the landscape.

After doing all that, Ladio vanished in a flash.

Purple Pearl was stunned for a moment. She also considered herself an islander, and naturally, her appearance had changed as well.

Her legs came together and began to lengthen, eventually transforming into a snake's tail.

At the same time, fine scales appeared on its body.

His eyes turned into vertical pupils, exuding a cold and sinister aura.

Her appearance even bears the resemblance to her martial spirit, the sea viper!

"This...this..."

Purple Pearl panicked. She transformed into a streak of light and rushed towards her island ship. As she sailed across the sea, she saw her own body.

With a long snake tail, it has a human body but also the characteristics of a sea viper!

Once on the deck of the pirate ship, her islands underwent similar changes.

There were shark people, crab people, shrimp people... they all became a completely new race, the fish-men!

"We're not going to be human anymore? Great! Besides, I feel like I can move around in the ocean without using soul power! And I can walk on land like a human!"

"From now on, being a pirate will be much easier for us!"

"Long live Captain Purple Pearl!!!"

The pirates cheered, all delighted by the changes they had undergone.

Purple Pearl's face was pale, but she felt no joy, only fear.

Because she had just told Ladio that she didn't want to be punished by human laws.

But now that they are no longer human, they are no longer protected by human laws!

A completely new race—you can imagine how they'll be treated!

They used to hunt merchant ships on the high seas.

Now, human ships will become their nightmare!

They can hardly do business with humans anymore!

"Quick! Go to the human city and buy supplies! Knowledge!" Purple Pearl screamed.

……

Ladio went east again and encountered no accidents.

Finally, there is the central location, which is Wuhun City, but Wuhun City has been equipped with other devices.

So he came to a similar place, Shrek City!

The best location happens to be on Poseidon Island in Shrek City.

There was originally a golden ancient tree on it, which could serve as the life tree of Douluo Star. It grew from a branch of the Goddess of Life.

However, due to the merging of the two worlds, this ancient tree lost its original divinity.

What Latio needs to do is to restore its associated divinity.

He walked into Shrek Academy, quite curious about the institution.

He had observed this world and knew that almost all the "protagonists" of this world gathered in this academy.

It can be said that this is the cradle of the chosen ones.

Upon entering, Ladio discovered an interesting place.

There were two or three people dressed similarly to him, all trying to resemble him in clothing and build.

No wonder Purple Pearl initially thought he was a fake.

If even this world has its own "dummy people," then they must be even more rampant in other places.

He declined to comment.

He took a stroll around the outer courtyard of Shrek Academy and even sat in on a class, which he found somewhat boring.

The teachers at this college are of average ability.

They rely more on coercive methods and lack flexibility, so they can't be considered good teachers.

Just as he was about to leave the classroom, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Um...you acted very well!"

A hot girl with short, black hair was waving and greeting him.

She was only eleven or twelve years old, but her physical attributes surpassed those of many adult women.

She has the demeanor of Zhu Zhuqing.

Ladio could tell at a glance that he was a member of the Zhu family of this era.

Ladio looked at her calmly without saying a word.

"Can I take a picture with you?" Zhu Lu asked tentatively.

Ladio shook his head and declined her invitation.

A look of disappointment crossed Zhu Lu's face.

"I'm sorry... I... I was being presumptuous." Zhu Lu sighed, following behind Ladio unwillingly.

It is only now that the two worlds have merged and she has realized that her family is no longer significant that she has become so obedient.

Otherwise, in the past, she would definitely have argued with Ladio.

At this time.

A blond boy came in from outside.

Seeing Julu follow Ladio out, he immediately frowned.

"Zhu Lu, what are you doing? We're supposed to train together, why are you following him around?"

Dai Huabin glanced at Ladio and said irritably, "It's just a fake. Are you going to try to find solace in it like everyone else? You'd be better off training!"

Zhu Lu frowned, unconvinced, and said, "Maybe, maybe it's true. The feeling he gives me is different from the previous ones!"

"What's the difference? I think you're going to get fooled again!"

Dai Huabin said coldly.

Zhu Lu was unconvinced and wanted to argue with the other party.

Ladio ignored them and continued walking.

"Wait a minute! Take the plaster head sculpture off! Is it fun to pretend to be someone else? Can't you even show your own face to others?"

Dai Huabin said angrily.

His parents divorced, causing a huge upheaval in his family, and he's currently very angry.

Zhu Lu quickly grabbed his arm, gritting her teeth, "Dai Huabin! Don't be ridiculous!"

"I'm being silly? You have no idea what I'm like when I'm being silly!"

Dai Huabin got more and more excited as he spoke, as if he wanted to use Ladio as a punching bag.

He rolled up his sleeves and was about to walk towards Ladio.

Zhu Lu was no match for him and was being dragged along, while pleading for help from Zhou Yi, the teacher on the podium.

Zhou Yi said, "Shrek's motto is that those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre. Don't stop him. Let me see what this little tiger is capable of."

"..."

Zhu Lu and Dai Huabin were both stunned for a moment.

Dai Huabin then got even more excited.

Zhu Lu hurriedly said, "Um, you have to go! I can't stop him!"

Ladio didn't leave. He glanced at Zhou Yi and became even more disappointed with the academy.

While truth becomes clearer through collision, it is not a matter of barbaric physical clashes.

This college seems to be fundamentally flawed.

At that moment, an old figure appeared in the doorway. Upon seeing Ladio, the figure paused for a moment, then bowed deeply.

"Holy Master Meratheo, I am truly flattered that you have come in person..."

"!!!"

Zhou Yi couldn't sit still any longer, because the bent-over old man was... Mu En!

The highest-ranking existence in Shrek Academy!

The fact that he bowed to Latio was enough to prove that the other party was not an imposter, but the real Latio the Holy Master.

In an instant, all eyes were on Ladio.

Shrek Academy and the Spirit Hall actively communicated and had long known how great Saint Master Radio was.

Zhou Yi hurriedly stood up and bowed to Ladio in a flustered manner.

"I'm sorry, Master Latio, I didn't know it was you..."

Dai Huabin's face turned deathly pale. He had just... had actually been talking to the Holy Master Latio like that?!

A sudden surge of intense fear overwhelmed him; he was terrified!

If he really provoked the Holy Master Latio, wouldn't he be slapped to death?

Zhu Lu glared at Dai Huabin, and felt a wave of fear wash over her as well.

Luckily, she held onto Dai Huabin with all her might, otherwise the two of them would probably be doomed!

This reckless man is not suitable.

They have absolutely no sense of propriety!

"No need for formalities," Latio said calmly.

He continued out, with Moon serving him.

Ladio headed towards the Isle of Poseidon and explained his plans.

Moon immediately said, "Holy Master Radio, we support all your decisions. Please feel free to do as you please."

Ladio hummed in agreement and asked, "I see that most of the students in your outer academy are dressed in magnificent clothes, but are they all nobles?"

"Well... that's probably the case most likely."

Moon hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Shrek Academy is now the strongest force in the Douluo Continent, so it's impossible for just any Tom, Dick, or Harry to come in.

Even for the outer academy, one needs the city lord's recommendation to enroll.

It's easy to imagine that an ordinary commoner could get into Shrek Academy.

Nobles crave commoner Soul Masters just as much!

This has resulted in most of the students at Shrek Academy being of noble birth!

Ladio said nothing more, but Moon realized what was happening.

When Shrek Academy was first established, it taught only commoner Soul Masters!

How did it turn out like this?

The dragon-slaying boy becomes the dragon himself?

For a moment, Moon was overwhelmed with mixed feelings… (End of Chapter)
