The Pirate Princess Becomes Queen

She took out another drop of her own heart's blood and created a second blood relative.

She buried her heart's blood in the cemetery within the Magic Duck Mansion. Using the negative energy within the land, combined with Hawkins' knowledge of evil spirits and curses, she continuously used dark red blood mist imbued with negative emotions to functionally modify the heart's blood within the cemetery.

Vivi studied Rao.g's "Qigong" cultivation method. She herself did not practice it, and ailments such as rheumatism and herniated discs could not possibly affect vampires. However, she learned something from it: intelligent beings can draw strength from pain, and the more pain they suffer, the stronger they become.

This practice is somewhat similar to the asceticism found in many religions in the past, where one wraps oneself in thorny bands, kneels on the ground and whips oneself, using various means to torture the body in order to gain spiritual pleasure.

At this point, Bucky the Clown and his gang finally remembered who she was. Every time they saw her, they cried their eyes out. Vivi pleaded with Ashura Child for mercy and led the guys out of the stronghold.

Bucky the Clown tried to run away immediately, but Vivi didn't chase after them and let them go.

On the third day, Bucky the Clown and his gang returned to her looking disheveled.

We have no choice but to search; Wano Country is too dangerous.

The unscrupulous merchants, Fenye and Fanhe, were indeed killed, but the ronin who set fires at night are still around, and because they are no longer under control, they seem to be getting even worse.

Buggy the Clown and his friends hid in a dilapidated house on the outskirts of the Flower Capital to avoid the cold at night, only to be caught by ronin setting the house on fire. They fought back bravely, but were beaten to the ground by a group of ronin. The ronin leader even knew Armament Haki, although his level was low, it was enough to beat Buggy the Clown.

On the first day, their house was set on fire and they were beaten up. On the second day, they encountered the Beast Pirates' slave-hunting team in the wild. They heard that they were going to capture poor people to use as test subjects for Queen the Plague. The group almost ran their legs off before they escaped with their lives. With nowhere to go, they could only come back to find Vivi.

"Tsk tsk," Weiwei sighed as she looked at the guys with bruised faces and ripped clothes. "Living in Dada is not easy."

If her clinic hadn't buried more than a dozen ronin before and after, and hadn't cultivated relationships with Kyoshiro, she wouldn't be enjoying her current peace and comfort.

"Go to work. Right there in the square, show me your best skills and attract people. You'll work eight hours a day, rest half a day on weekends, and earn a small sum of money each month."

Buggy the Clown performed ball juggling, the animal trainer and lion performed jumping through fire hoops, and Cabaji still did his usual unicycle tightrope walking routine. To be honest, these things were indeed novelties in Wano Country, attracting quite a few patients for Vivi.

Vivi selected several elderly people suffering from various illnesses and used dance to pass on Rao.g's painful cultivation method.

Several old men were quite talented and had a good foundation. While enduring the pain of dancing, they managed to cultivate "qi" and the group gradually expanded. Initially, there were three or five people, then more than ten, and finally a large group of seventy or eighty old men who danced on the lawn in front of the clinic every morning.

The samurai culture is strong in Wano Country. Even the elderly were samurai in their youth. This country is somewhat morbid, with an extremely high tolerance for pain. As long as they can gain power, they don't mind physical pain.

Chapter 210 Flames

Isis's role is to survive and fly. She can heal herself in critical moments and then carry herself at full speed. That's all she needs.

For the second bloodline familiar, Vivi's requirement was attack. She wanted this familiar to have fire abilities, so that next time she saw an enemy like Hawkins who was very afraid of fire, she wouldn't have to hack him down piece by piece, which was too much trouble. It would be better to just burn him to death.

Vivi, under the guise of checking the health of the elderly, would occasionally draw blood from them to collect their blood and extract the "qi" within it. This "qi" mainly consisted of pain, but also contained various kinds of resentment, anger, and hostility.

In her view, this "gas" could be used for combustion.

After a month of erosion, the blood from her heart, buried deep in the cemetery, underwent initial transformation. She then poured this drop of blood into a blood pool filled with "qi".

The blood in the blood pool is rapidly absorbed by the heart's blood.

She dipped her right index finger into the pool of blood and began stirring it clockwise.

As the pool of blood spun, impurities gradually precipitated out, and the mixed, translucent crystals were flung everywhere, while the duck watched from a distance.

Weiwei's expression was focused, and she stirred at a moderate pace. Her heart's blood absorbed all the energy in the blood pool, and she could feel that the flame that she had been looking forward to, which had the characteristics of burning and was fueled by emotions, was slowly appearing.

When the "qi" was compressed to its limit, a wisp of black flame appeared out of thin air. The flame continued to burn, and passersby outside the clinic could smell a burnt odor, but no matter how they looked, they could not see any open flame.

The black flames burned for three whole days, and the pool of blood disappeared, leaving only a small ball of flame the size of a little finger.

This flame originated from emotion, born from pain, and since human birth is often accompanied by pain, she named this flame "First Flame."

Vivi named her new bloodline "Gwen".

At this point, she could be considered to have mastered the ability to control flames, even though these flames were rather dark and didn't resemble the flames of a respectable household...

“I will obey your call, sister.” Gwyn’s voice was still a little childish, but one could sense that he was a rather strong-willed boy.

After giving away another drop of her heart's blood, Vivi fell into a state of weakness once more, and it took her ten days to recover. Originally, due to the Vampire Fruit, her appearance was fixed at the age of fourteen. Now, after giving away two drops of her heart's blood, her appearance changed to sixteen. Creating a blood familiar comes at a price; she has "aged."

Gwyn is a blood-based familiar with fire attributes, capable of inflicting continuous fire damage on enemies. He can also transform into a spear for throwing or use as a weapon.

Vivi placed Gwyn inside her necklace; the glossy black necklace, paired with her fair skin, gave her a slightly eerie beauty.

Three months have passed in a flash.

During this period, Vivi's skills have improved significantly.

She found a passive swordsmanship ability on Ashura Doji: Effortless Mastery.

The fat man was very strong, but swordsmanship is not just about strength; skill is also often required.

Kozuki Oden had given him special training before his death. The core idea was that when you need to use force, you should use force; when you need to use skill, you should use skill.

It's easier said than done.

Carrying bricks for four hours straight, then immediately starting to embroider without rest—99% of people couldn't do that; their muscles, blood vessels, and nerves simply wouldn't be under their control. Through rigorous training, and by acquiring the passive ability to lift heavy objects with ease, Ashura Doji can switch freely between power-based and technique-based swordsmanship.

When you have plenty of strength and stamina, you can strike fiercely. When you are in a prolonged battle and need to recover your strength, you can use skillful and ingenious sword techniques to buy time. This is the passive ability of swordsmanship: to make heavy tasks seem effortless.

This ability is quite useful to Vivi.

As her own strength increases, the enemies she encounters will become stronger and stronger. Everyone's stamina is as abundant as a monster's. When she doesn't have an overwhelming advantage, it's common for them to fight for seven days and seven nights. This ability to maintain her own condition at all times might determine the outcome of a battle.

In three months, Vivi has improved a lot in all aspects.

My swordsmanship is currently at level 6 and my Armament Haki is at level 5. With a little more effort, I should be able to level up soon.

With the foundation of her exploits in the Sea Forest, her Observation Haki has now reached level 6, making it the highest level among all her abilities.

In addition to her basic abilities such as sensing the strength of living beings, sensing their emotions, and predicting enemy moves, her Observation Haki also has an additional characteristic called "Misleading" besides "Suggestion".

This is her unique Observation Haki ability.

In battle, Observation Haki can be used to distract the enemy. You think I'm on the left? Actually, I'm on the right. You think I'm launching a fierce attack from the front? Actually, I've already circled around to the rear, preparing for a sneak attack.

The extent of the misleading effect is related to the enemy's Observation Haki. If the enemy's Observation Haki is strong, the misleading effect will be weak, and vice versa.

Vivi's Conqueror's Haki hasn't improved much, and she still has no clue how to use Conqueror's Haki to entangle.

After bidding farewell to Tama and Tsuru, she set off from Wano Country for Dressrosa, where a great show was about to begin, and as the director, she couldn't be absent.

......

In the Kingdom of Prodens, in the town of Torance where the Vampire Fruit was obtained, Vivi's group of friends gradually arrived to gather.

"Lord Magic Duck!" Princess Perona saw Karu, the duck drinking ice water with a straw, from afar. She rushed over and gave him a big hug, just like seeing her own father, leaving the duck completely bewildered.

"Can I see your..." Brook reverted to his old ways, popping out from an odd angle, only to be kicked hard by Perona.

"It was you, you perverted freak! Get out of here!"

Brooke, tears streaming down her face, said, "I'm not a pervert... even though I am indeed dead..."

Weiwei didn't participate in their playful banter; instead, she quietly exchanged information with Lao Fan about what they had learned during this time.

Doflamingo is probably planning some kind of countermeasure. Kaido is just a trump card, and he won't use him unless absolutely necessary.

In the first few rounds of the fight, Crocodile still needs to do the work.

Could Crocodile's executives defeat Doflamingo's executives? That's an absolute yes/no question.

Excluding Vivi, how can a group of level 20 elites defeat level 50 elites?

That's when off-field help is needed.

"Do you need my help?" Old Fan asked.

Vivi said, "It depends on the situation. I need to see how chaotic things get and how Doflamingo responds. Let's develop a few contingency plans and adapt to the changing circumstances."

"I can't wait! We've just made a few phone calls and already mixed up the fates of all these forces. It's amazing!"

Old Fan, who was able to get involved with Blackbeard in the original timeline, is definitely not a good person... Now he's just talking like he wants to stir up trouble.

Chapter 211 Profit Sharing

Perona, who was playing cards with Duck, Brooke, and the innkeeper not far away, suddenly shouted something to Vivi in ​​a hysterical manner.

"I'm going to kill the Sand Crocodile! You promised me!" She turned to the duck and asked, "Right? Lord Magic Duck?"

"Quack quack!" the duck quacked twice in support.

Weiwei sat on the lounge chair, nodding perfunctorily, "Mmm...no problem, no problem..."

After some discussion, the core idea was to stir up trouble. Once the reign of terror in Dressrosa was shaken, Doflamingo's good days would be over. In the original timeline, he didn't take Luffy and his few "grunts" seriously. Now, the grand Pirate Expo is being held right on his doorstep. If his stronghold is also in chaos, can he still resist calling Kaido?

If Kaido shows up, then half the battle is won.

Vivi put Old Fan, a professional, in charge of a series of assassination plans targeting Sugar, who had eaten the Paramecia-type Hobby-Hobby Fruit.

First, Brook will transform into a ghost to scare Sugar. If that doesn't work, Perona will send out a ghost to fight. This guy has come up with a powerful move called "Super Ghost. Kamikaze Bomb" to deal with Crocodile. You can tell what it's for just by the name. Vivi glanced at it. Although the ghost's movement speed is still slow, that's only effective against her. If an ordinary person is unprepared and gets hit by it, being pulverized is the best outcome. Maybe even their soul will be torn apart.

If all the assassination attempts against Sugar fail, then let Old Fan snipe her from 800 miles away!

Karu the duck and Laboon the whale are in charge of the retreat; if the operation fails, the group will be able to escape safely.

After assigning several tasks, Vivi quickly left Torrance Town. She was extremely busy.

Too many people in the Navy know her, so the Navy has left the negotiations to Old Sha. The Navy has its own methods for arresting people.

Arresting people is easy, but figuring out how to distribute the spoils after the arrests are up to some methods.

With so many pirates, their combined bounties must be astronomical. It's true that the World Government is rich, but it won't readily hand over cash exceeding 10 billion Berries. This is where the "gentry" need to work together.

Vivi made numerous contacts, using Old Fan's official channels to obscure her relationship with Crocodile. She made contact with several Celestial Dragons, explaining that the World Government belonged to everyone, and the Beli they obtained was theirs. The Celestial Dragon responsible for asking the World Government for money was considered a "gentry."

The Big Mom Pirates were responsible for creating a lively atmosphere in the early stages, providing a list of attendees, and helping some wealthy people escape when the Navy tried to capture them, earning a lot of protection money. They were also a kind of "gentry".

Akainu on the Navy side is impervious to reason, no problem, the people below him aren't so incorruptible.

The soldiers Akainu brought from headquarters were only a portion of the force. To maintain sufficient manpower, he also drew elite soldiers from bases such as G1 and G5 in the New World. Among them, Vice Admiral Vergo, the commander of the G5 base, is currently serving as Akainu's deputy in his fleet.

This guy is ostensibly a vice admiral, but he's actually one of Doflamingo's subordinates. It takes skill for an undercover agent to rise to the rank of vice admiral.

With Vigor present, it's fair to say that Akainu's actions are essentially no secret to Doflamingo.

While opposing Doflamingo, Vivi was also doing business with him... She used Crocodile as a front to contact this undercover lieutenant general and encourage him to become a member of the "gentry".

The Navy can't arrest everyone; they need to divide the work with the Big Mom Pirates. They should arrest the poor and hand them over to the World Government in exchange for bounties, while handing over the rich to the Big Mom Pirates in exchange for protection money.

Vivi acted as a liaison, allocating benefits among the various parties.

She viewed Vergo as a corrupt Marine, and her words were all about the distribution of benefits. She even pointed out that her side had already reached an agreement with the Celestial Dragons and the Big Mom Pirates, and now they just needed the Marines to do some cooperation.

Lieutenant General Vergo vaguely represented the navy and also became a "gentry".
