A Villain's Journey Begins in the Type-Moon World

The time-stopping power granted by Dio's World Stand not only gave him an absolute advantage, but also revealed the path to a higher level.

Silas's extraordinary magical comprehension allowed him to understand the underlying logic and laws of the flow of countless energies in the world, truly giving him the vision and potential that a strong person should have.

At this moment, Wang Chong's heart was filled with anticipation and curiosity. What surprises and new powers would this soon-to-be-revealed fourth villain template bring him?

He took a deep breath and slowly spoke to the system in his sea of ​​consciousness:

"System, I want to use this villain template. Let me see what kind of abilities this fourth character can bring me."

"Haha, host's enthusiasm for drawing cards is very high! Alright!"

The system's voice carried a hint of anthropomorphic excitement:

"Then this system will have to be on its toes and try to draw a powerful villain template for the host that will be of great use in the upcoming adventures!"

Before he finished speaking, a gacha wheel interface, gleaming with a mysterious light, rapidly unfolded before Wang Chong's eyes. As the wheel began to spin rapidly, Wang Chong held his breath, silently praying that a villainous character would appear that perfectly matched his current state.

Om-!

Suddenly, a dazzling golden light exploded from the center of the roulette wheel, almost illuminating the entire consciousness space. Immediately afterward, the system's signature celebratory voice boomed:

"Congratulations, host! You have drawn the S-class villain—Blackbeard, Marshall D. Teach!"

"???"

The moment the name appeared clearly on the character card with its shimmering dark gold border, Wang Chong's expression froze, and a series of tangible question marks seemed to appear above his head.

"Wait... this..." You, you, me, you, Lin Xiangkong, you, Lin Zaizai, are you...?

After a brief moment of surprise, Wang Chong couldn't help but blurt out:

"I know the theme of the next singularity is navigation, but is it really necessary to send me a villain from a nautical story? Will this... will this really come in handy?"

Looking at the card in his hand that depicted that iconic image of missing teeth and a wide grin, Wang Chong felt a strong sense of disappointment, and his previously high expectations instantly plummeted.

It's no wonder Wang Chong was disgusted. In his understanding, the power level of the entire One Piece world was far too far behind his current level.

With his current strength, sweeping away the top experts of that world would not be difficult, let alone Blackbeard Teach, who has not yet reached the top and is still growing.

"And... does this card really deserve an S-rank rating?" Wang Chong asked the system with deep doubt.

"Host, please calm down."

The system's voice calmed down and patiently explained:

"The S-rank rating is never based solely on combat power, or even the primary criterion. The core criteria for judging a villain's rank are the profound impact on the entire storyline, the huge turning point in the protagonist's fate, and the subversive effect on the world order."

"Think about Kirei Kotomine. As a mortal, isn't he also an S-class villain?"

The system paused for a moment, then continued:

"Blackbeard Teach's status as a villain in the manga One Piece is undeniable. The impact he had on the protagonist Luffy and his crew, and the earth-shattering changes he caused to the entire world government structure, are obvious facts."

"Moreover, as far as I know, that world is very close to the final battle, and Teach is one of the key figures in this decisive battle that will determine the fate of the world! Therefore, it is perfectly reasonable to define him as an S-class villain."

"More importantly, host, you must not underestimate the potential and ceiling that the villain template can reach..."

The system's tone carried a hint of solemnity:

"Admittedly, your own power far surpasses that of the original Blackbeard Teach. But precisely because of this, Teach's Devil Fruit abilities can be unleashed in your hands with a terrifying potential far beyond imagination!"

"The principle behind this is similar to the truth about strength revealed in the world of One Piece—the strength of a Devil Fruit no longer depends on the fruit itself, but on the strength of its user. The stronger the user, the more astonishing the power displayed by the fruit!"

"Host, isn't this the same principle as the Stand power you already possess?"

The system provided an example at the appropriate time:

"Isn't your current level of power already far surpassing Dio's? But aren't you equally aware of the remarkable enhancement effect of the Time Stop ability on you, and its immense strategic value?"

After listening to the system's clear, logical, and well-founded explanation, Wang Chong fell into a brief silence.

He carefully considered the system's words, and the doubts in his eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by contemplation and agreement.

Finally, he slowly nodded and murmured to himself:

"It's like what some master once said... there are no useless fruits, only useless people... right?"

"Hmm...that's pretty much it..."

The system's tone was gentle, with a hint of encouragement, as if to soothe Wang Chong's doubts:

"Once you arrive at the Rome Singularity, you can experience the immense power of this villain template. The vast environment there may allow you to appreciate its potential more deeply."

After listening to the system's explanation, the contemplation in Wang Chong's eyes gradually settled into determination. He nodded slightly, a confident smile playing on his lips.

"Okay, I'll use this template later... Now that everything has been extracted, it's time for me to give them a good surprise."

After speaking, he turned his gentle gaze to the women on the field who were about to slowly awaken, his eyes filled with expectation and tenderness.

The soft morning light streamed through the window, illuminating their sleeping faces and adding a touch of tranquility to this heartwarming moment.

...You, you, I don't have Meimei, I'm empty, Lin Zaizai, I'm not there...

After the rings were distributed, the women who received them reacted in different ways, and each person's emotions rippled outwards at that moment.

Irisviel, Aoi, and Leticia were the first to show expressions of relief and happiness.

They knew all too well that their help to Wang Chong was minimal, offering mostly emotional comfort, which often left them feeling uneasy. They were constantly worried that one day they would be forgotten or abandoned.

But at this moment, after being completely "sown" and wearing this wedding ring symbolizing their vows, their anxious hearts finally settled. The ring was not only a token, but also allowed them to feel the warm amplification of Wang Chong's power, as if an invisible bond tightly connected them.

Aoi gently stroked the ring, tears welling in her eyes. Her current strength far surpassed that of a third-rate Servant; she was no longer an ordinary person. This fundamentally alleviated her long-standing inferiority complex of "being unable to help her Master."

Joan of Arc, Marie Antoinette, Semiramis, and Arcueid remained relatively calm, their expressions barely fluctuating, as if all of this had been expected. Though their faces did not reveal exaggerated emotions, their inner joy flowed like an undercurrent.

Joan of Arc smiled slightly, her eyes softening; Mary elegantly played with her ring, a satisfied smile on her face; even the usually proud Semiramis smiled lightly, a rare sight, her smile conveying relief and pride, as if to say, "I've finally waited for this moment."

Atalanta pounced on Wang Chong with the agility of a cheetah, with Kiyohime close behind. The two of them giggled and launched another challenge.

The result was no surprise: after another exhilarating exchange, they were completely filled, curled up contentedly, and fell into a deep sleep, their faces still bearing the lingering scent of exhaustion and happiness.

Mordred seemed somewhat uneasy. She stared down at the ring, her fingers unconsciously rubbing together.

Because she discovered that she had received this gift before her two "fathers," Artoria and Artoria [alter].

The thought of their stern expressions sent a chill down Mordred's spine, her voice trembling slightly: "Master, are you sure my two fathers won't blame me for this? If they find out, they'll definitely glare at me with those freezing eyes..."

Seeing this, Wang Chong chuckled and patted her shoulder: "Don't worry, Mordred... Besides, you should pursue your own happiness, shouldn't you? Why are you so hesitant now in front of Lia and the others? Are you scared?"

These words were teasing, yet subtly encouraging.

"Who...who's scared, damn it!" Mordred immediately straightened his back, trying to adopt the posture of a former rebellious knight. "I am a rebellious knight, how could I possibly be afraid!"

But there was a hint of guilt in her voice. Since reconciling with her fathers, Mordred had become much more docile, and she only dared to be defiant now because Artoria wasn't around.

Finally, there are the three Gorgon sisters. As the earliest followers of Wang Chong, their relationship was the most complex and profound.

Stheno still wore that mysterious smile, but the tears in her eyes betrayed her emotion: "Hmph, you actually want to completely possess the goddess? What a greedy fellow... Fine, the goddess's favor is very heavy... Be prepared to wear it for a lifetime."

Her voice was soft, yet carried an undeniable promise.

Euryale, with tears in her eyes, was unusually blunt, despite her usual delicate nature: "Stupid Master... you should have taken it out a long time ago."

She threw herself into Wang Chong's arms, her tears soaking his clothes, expressing her emotions without reservation.

Although Medusa is usually reserved, she was as happy as a child at this moment: "Master... gave us a happy home, gave me everything... Now Medusa feels really happy... that feeling of happiness is about to overflow."

She gazed at Wang Chong, her pupils gleaming with pure light, as if he were the only person left in the entire world.

Faced with the three women's deep affection, Wang Chong felt a surge of intense tenderness. He gently embraced them, feeling their warmth. But Stheno and Euryale soon became restless, playfully teasing him with their fingertips and whispering provocative words in Wang Chong's ear.

Left with no other choice, Wang Chong filled their bellies again, finally allowing the three women to nestle contentedly beside him.

The other women on the field, their desires ignited by the increasingly enthusiastic atmosphere, flocked to him with seductive glances. Wang Chong had no choice but to go all out, and amidst laughter and panting, he poured himself into the remaining women one by one until they were satisfied.

In the end, everyone collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted.

……

Dimensional House: Rome Singularity Area

On the windswept, sandy wilderness, Ayaka Sajou stood atop the massive body of the Beast 666, her figure appearing exceptionally slender in the afterglow of the setting sun.

When Wang Chong handed over the opened wedding ring box, Ayaka Sajou's eyes widened in disbelief: "Your...Your Highness, can I really have this?"

Sajou Aika's voice trembled with anticipation. Among all the women she liked, Sajou Aika was the most special. She was the only girl who hadn't yet had a relationship with Wang Chong, and this purity made her exceptionally sensitive to this moment.

The moment she saw the ring, a wave of overwhelming joy washed over her, almost making her stumble. She covered her face with her hands, steam rising from her head, lost in a frenzied fantasy:

"Hehe...hehe, I actually, I'm the first one to be proposed to...as expected, His Highness loves me the most..."

Their infatuated expressions suggested they were immersed in a fairytale world shared only by the two of them.

Wang Chong coughed lightly, his voice gentle yet apologetic: "Ahem... Although I don't want to shatter your illusions, I said I wouldn't deceive you, Ai Ge... This isn't the first ring."

"Huh?"

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over her head. Saya Aika froze instantly, her smile freezing on her face, and she stood there stiffly as if she had been hit hard.

But Wang Chong didn't stop. He took out the ring, gently held her left hand, and said sincerely, "Aige, you should know that my heart can never hold one or two women... but it also represents my love and care for you."

He paused for a moment, then asked, "So... are you willing?"

Seeing the ring about to be slipped onto her finger, Aika Sajou's dejection vanished like smoke. All her obsession with being "the first" or "the most beloved" vanished, leaving only one thought in her mind: to accept this belated happiness.

When Wang Chong saw that Sajou Aika was not responding for a long time, he deliberately teased her, "Don't you want to?"

"I...I'm willing!" Ayaka Sajou said quickly, her voice loud and urgent, as if afraid that Wang Chong would change his mind. A bright smile of relief bloomed on Ayaka Sajou's face.

Chapter 499 Testing Skills (Part 1)

After placing the wedding ring symbolizing eternity on Ayaka Sajou's finger and spending a tender moment with her, Wang Chong, along with the Beast 666 and the blissful girl, arrived at the core of the Rome Singularity.

At this moment, Aika Sajou's thoughts were all focused on the shimmering ring on her ring finger, as if the whole world was illuminated by this small circle.

Her gaze kept falling on the ring, a sweet smile playing on her lips. Her attachment to and obedience to Wang Chong had reached an unprecedented peak.

As for why she came to the central area... Sajou Aika didn't care much. As long as it was Wang Chong's wish, she would follow him without reservation.

Wang Chong's purpose in coming here was naturally to verify the power contained in the "villain template" he had just obtained.

"System, are you sure that even if I completely destroy the singularity of the Dimensional House, it can quickly repair itself?" Wang Chong confirmed in his mind again, his tone tinged with caution.

"Yes, host, please rest assured."

The system responded in a steady voice:

"As long as the main body of the Dimensional House, which is the core space where you live daily, is not damaged, then these subordinate small world spaces derived from the main body, even if completely destroyed, can be quickly reconstructed and regenerated under the power of the rules."

After receiving the system's unequivocal assurance, Wang Chong's last lingering concerns vanished, and he was finally able to act decisively.

Then, Wang Chong turned to the girl beside him who was still immersed in sweetness and said:

“Aige, I’m going to test a new power that may have far-reaching effects. Since you insist on staying here and are unwilling to take the 666 Beast to other small worlds for temporary refuge, then make sure it fully activates its defenses to protect you later.”

"Ah...yes! Your Highness!"

Saya Aika was brought back to her senses by Wang Chong's voice and quickly responded. Besides her longing, her clear eyes now blazed with intense curiosity. She was eager to know what astonishing power her prince would display next.

"System, activate the villain template," Wang Chong silently commanded in his mind.

"Ding—You have successfully loaded the villain template: Blackbeard (Marshall D. Teach)."

The moment the command took effect, a strange, unfamiliar yet powerful sense of strength took root and sprouted within Wang Chong's body like a seed.

However, what followed was a cold, dark curse with a strong sense of repulsion, which intended to entangle and erode the very essence of his body.

Wang Chong snorted coldly, and with a slight thought, the summoner skill [Purify] instantly shone brightly. Pure and flawless purifying energy surged like a tide, easily washing away the curse power that had attempted to possess him, leaving not a trace.

"This must be the inevitable side effect of obtaining a Devil Fruit ability—the curse of being rejected by the sea. No wonder Devil Fruit users in the One Piece world cannot move around in the ocean."

Wang Chong was fully aware of this, and then pondered:

"However... just as the system said, neither Blackbeard's power nor the system of the One Piece world is at a level that is too low for me now. The curse effect of this Devil Fruit can naturally be easily purified and erased."

Subsequently, Wang Chong quickly adapted to the changes within his body.

"Hmm? This is the source of power for the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and the Dark-Dark Fruit, and... an energy manipulation technique called 'Haki'?"

Two distinct yet pure Devil Fruit powers flowed and thrived within him, and Blackbeard's combat experience and methods of using Haki were all instilled into Wang Chong's mind.

At the same time, his own Silas talent [Spell Sensing] was instantly triggered, like the most efficient analysis engine, analyzing and comprehending the operating rules of the Devil Fruit ability and the methods of using Haki from top to bottom.

Thanks to his formidable strength, far surpassing that of the template's user, Wang Chong mastered Haki at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, he completely integrated the techniques of Observation Haki and Armament Haki inherent in the template.

Suddenly, a deep, dense layer of obsidian-like keratin appeared on his body, with a dark yet resilient energy shimmering on it—the outward manifestation of Armament Haki.
