Sailing: I Open Treasure Chests in the Pirate World

"Anyway, Hannibal is finally gone!"

Ian breathed a sigh of relief.

He voluntarily entered the frigid hell; he didn't really want to go to jail!

He came for the [System Treasure Chest]!

Compared to the previous levels of hell.

The extreme cold hell not only holds even more powerful prisoners, but there are also no Den Den Mushi (snail communication devices) monitoring it.

Den Den Mushi are not as resilient as one might imagine; they simply cannot withstand the terrifyingly low temperatures of the extreme cold hell.

Excluding the 5.5th floor, which has not yet been discovered by others—the new ladyboy paradise—let's not even mention it.

The Frigid Hell is one of the few "blind spots" in Impel Down that is under surveillance!

This also means——

Ian's free time has finally arrived!

Sharpening knives does not miss woodcutters.

Instead of immediately hunting for treasure chests, Ian first summoned his own [System Treasure Chest].

The platinum chest obtained from defeating the four jailer beasts.

Ian only used one, and still has three left!

Now is the perfect time to add skill points!

Ian took a deep breath and threw a Platinum Treasure Chest into the Clay Fruit.

Clay Fruit: ★★★★★★

There are currently two platinum treasure chests remaining.

Ian originally intended to invest them into his [Physical] attribute.

Resources are scarce in the extremely cold hell.

If Ian were to choose to allocate points to [Physique] now, he would probably have to go hungry for several days.

"I'll add points to the [Endurance] attribute after the confinement ends!"

Ian put away the two Platinum Treasure Chests and turned to look at the Clay Fruit, which had been upgraded to six stars.

An endless stream of inspiration seemed to explode in his mind.

All of a sudden.

Ian understood the difference between "five and a half stars" and "six stars"!

He stretched out his right hand and pressed it on the cell floor, suddenly activating the power of the Clay-Clay Fruit.

Under the influence of the Devil Fruit power.

The solid frozen soil of the extreme cold hell, which had been frozen for countless years, softened instantly.

Ian's right arm then sank downwards, pressing directly into the ground of the frigid hell.

Between his arms and the ground, white clay gushed out like a fountain.

"Six-star!"

With just a thought, Ian unleashed the power of the Clay-Clay Fruit, which spread throughout the entire cell, instantly softening the frozen ground into soft clay.

"Awakening level!"

The awakening characteristic of Zoan-type Devil Fruits is that they grant the user unparalleled regenerative abilities and vitality.

The awakening characteristic of Paramecia-type Devil Fruits is that they can affect things other than the user!

The moment Ian upgraded the [Clay Fruit] to six stars.

The Clay-Clay Fruit has awakened!

Chapter 34 Harvesting the Golden Treasure Chests in the Extremely Cold Hell!

Ian unleashed the power of the Clay-Clay Fruit, transforming the cell floor into a soft clay bed.

He jumped and rolled around on the clay bed, his expression as excited as if he had contracted the "Nika virus".

After initially adapting to the awakened abilities of the Clay Fruit.

Ian didn't hesitate any longer and immediately took action.

"Golden System Treasure Chest, here I come!"

It is "detention" rather than "imprisonment".

Ian was not put in the sea stone shackles that symbolized his status as a prisoner.

Even when he was shackled with sea stone shackles, he was not worried at all.

Ian can use the power of the Clay-Clay Fruit by borrowing the power of the Ring of Magic Control.

Seastone is effective against Devil Fruit users, so what does that have to do with him, a non-Devil Fruit user?

Ian had already tested this out himself.

When I first received that [Seastone Baton] from the Navy Equipment Department.

Ian had tested the effectiveness of Seastone against him.

The final conclusion is-

Seastone is just a worthless, useless rock.

Even back then, Ian had a rather vague "prison plan" in mind.

He has now been sent to the extreme cold of hell, and the sea stone cannot stop his actions.

Ian stood in front of the cell door and walked steadily toward the fence in front of him, which was inlaid with sea stone.

The moment his body touched the sea stone fence, it immediately softened into clumps of white clay.

Seastone Prison couldn't contain Ian's movements!

A cold wind blew.

Ian stepped calmly out of the cell.

The next action plan, of course, is to harvest the golden treasure chests in the extreme cold hell!

The quality of the [System Treasure Chest] is mainly related to the strength of the opponent.

In the world of piracy, the amount of a bounty is undoubtedly the best symbol of strength.

Just as Ian had predicted.

Pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million can each be given a [Golden Treasure Chest]!

Starting from his solitary cell, Ian began to loot the system chests of the surrounding prisoners.

One after another, the [Golden Treasure Chests] fell into his pocket.

After Ian cleared out the area of ​​the prison where he was located.

The number of [Golden Treasure Chests] he has has reached double digits!

A total of fifteen Golden System Treasure Chests!

"This quantity is barely satisfactory."

Ian's footsteps finally stopped in front of a dense, snow-covered forest.

"But it doesn't matter, in addition to prisoners, there are also corresponding jailers in the extreme cold hell."

"Army wolves!"

Before going to find the army wolves.

Ian was the first to summon his own [System Treasure Chest], intending to add another wave of points.

One by one, the golden treasure chests vanished like bubbles.

One by one, five-star abilities appeared in Ian's ability list.

[Armament Haki/Observation Haki: ★★★★★]

[Iron Block/Paper Drawing/Shaving/Finger Gun: ★★★★★]

In the blink of an eye.

Ian used up twelve [Golden Chests].

Because the strength level of the army wolves was not yet certain, Ian deliberately left three golden treasure chests.

He had previously upgraded his [Endurance] attribute to five stars, but his other two [Physique] attributes were still only four stars.

These three golden treasure chests are prepared for the [Strength] and [Speed] attributes.

Everything is ready, except for—

"Army wolves!"

A sharp red glint flashed in Ian's eyes, and his Observation Haki swept through the dense forest in front of him like the wind.

"found it!"

Ian raised his right hand, creating a tall clay clone, and maneuvered it into the dense forest in front of him.

The owner of the dense forest soon noticed the commotion.

A rustling sound followed.

Army wolves covered in snow-white fur appeared before the [clay clones].

The army wolves were not as large as the beasts in the Beast Hell.

However, the eyes of each army wolf gleamed with a blood-red light, making them appear extremely formidable.

"Ouch——"

A chilling wolf howl followed.

The seven or eight army wolves that had surrounded it seemed to have received a command and ran towards the [clay clone].

The army wolves move extremely fast, almost as fast as minnow zebras.

But no matter how fast a wolf moves.

It can't outrun the clay from the [Clay Clone] technique.

Under Ian's control, the clay clone swung its fist forward.

Its enormous arm exploded like a cannonball, scattering into seven equal-sized strips of clay.

The tips of these clay tentacles were deliberately shaped into fists, striking the army wolves in front of them with unparalleled precision.

"Clay rainstorm!"

The army wolves' movement speed was no match for the awakened Clay-Clay Fruit.

They rushed over with the force of thunder.

Then, he was instantly knocked down by a barrage of clay fists.

Thump! Thump! Thump! ——

Accompanied by eight crisp taps on the head.

All eight wolves that came to attack were knocked unconscious.

[Golden Treasure Chest: Army Wolf] X8

"It really is a golden treasure chest!"

A faint hint of joy flashed in Ian's eyes.

But at this moment.

A figure suddenly appeared from the shadows.

Only a fleeting orange-yellow shadow passed through mid-air.
