Sabo's Martial Soul, Fire Emperor (Ace)
🕑 Added 2024-12-11 11:48:40 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 393 ---
Zephyr walked side to side with Sabo, and a faint smile couldn't help but form on his aged face. "Rayleigh, I didn't expect to see you here..."
"The infamous Dark King and the late Pirate King's right hand is actually willing to join an organization. What a damn surprise this is."
Rayleigh smiled calmly, "An old fossil like you wouldn't understand. You're probably just trying to grab Yuhao-sama's coattails. Haha, it seems your dream to impose true justice will come true soon."
"Hmph." Zephyr snorted at the shameless fellow. He glanced at Fujitora and frowned because he didn't like marines after that incident, and more so for the corrupt ones under the World Government's control.
However, Zephyr had to admit that Fujitora is different. Fujitora's justice is commendable but still a bit naive.
So, Zephyr still gave Fujitora a nod in the end.
Fujitora was surprised by Zephyr's gesture. Even then, he calmed down fast and also responded similarly.
'So, this is the Black Arm Zephyr, the legendary marine whose name is 'highly' sung in the Marineford. Unfortunately, the marine let him down, and now he's under the Dragon Nest.' Fujitora thought to himself.
Thinking now that he and Zephyr would become coworkers, Fujitora was amused. Fate works wonders.
On the other hand, Sabo looked around to see if Huo Yuhao recruited more people than Rayleigh and Fujitora. However, he was bound to get disappointed because he only saw Kuina and Raikou beside Huo Yuhao.
Well, Rayleigh and Fujitora are already high-level fighters in the sea.
Huo Yuhao smiled at Sabo, "If you're curious about who else I recruited, you're up to a good surprise."
"Rayleigh over there is Luffy's teacher. And I recruited them into the Dragon Nest a moment ago."
"What!" Sabo was shocked. He didn't expect Huo Yuhao to meet Luffy a moment ago.
When Sabo and Zephyr lowered their heads to join the Dragon Nest, Huo Yuhao accepted them with a smile but suddenly told them to wait here because he wanted to do something first.
Yet never in Sabo's wildest dream had he ever thought Huo Yuhao, who was gone for about fifteen minutes, was recruiting his brother.
"Oh, you're Luffy's brother?" Rayleigh's lit up.
Sabo scratched his cheek, "Not by blood, but yeah. Thank you for taking care of Luffy, Rayleigh-san."
Rayleigh waved his hand casually, "It's alright. I owed Dragon some favors, so training his son is just right."
"By the way, I'm curious about something..."
"What is your Martial Soul?"
After learning about the wonder of Spirit Master's cultivation, the Dark King Rayleigh couldn't help but become fascinated with it, including Martial Soul, Spirit Ring, Spirit Skills, Rune Stones, Spirit Bones, etc.
"About that..." Sabo, Zephyr, and everyone behind them sighed.
Huo Yuhao laughed out loud, "Haha, my bad. I was eager to meet Luffy and his crews and forgot to awaken their Martial Soul."
"Honey is so bad..." Raikou chuckled. "Well, I will help awaken their Martial Soul on your behalf."
"There shouldn't be any problem, right?"
Huo Yuhao shook his head gently, "Go ahead... But leave Sabo, Karasu, Koala, Zephyr, Ain, and that funny-looking guy. They require special attention."
Behind Zephyr, the funny-looking guy Huo Yuhao mentioned couldn't help but shed a singular tear. He's a tall man with thick yet curly pink hair and big lips. He actually introduced himself three times to Huo Yuhao, but the latter was busy with Robin earlier. "Yuhao-sama, it's Binz! My name is Binz!"
"Oh, yeah. Binz!" Huo Yuhao nodded lightly.
In fact, Huo Yuhao didn't forget about Binz at all.
He is the type of person who noted a 'remarkable' trait of someone, and Binz's Devil Fruit had quite an impression.
Binz ate a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit, Grow-Grow Fruit.
He can super-accelerate plant growth and control it, which allows him to bind his enemy. It sounds weak at first glance, but at a conceptual level, he might grow Immortal Herb and turn himself into a 'certain' God of Shinobi.
The potential of Binz's Devil Fruit is just as powerful as a Mythical Zoan, or even more.
The same goes for the interesting young lady Ain beside Binz. Her Devil Fruit, Return-Return Fruit, can be fatal for those who use accumulation to get stronger.
Right now, Ain's Return-Return power is weak. She could only return one's time by twelve years. If she could awaken Return Return Fruit by chance, she could erase one's existence in the blink of an eye.
Of course, no matter how much Ain awakens her Devil Fruit, conceptually erasing someone above her dimensional level is impossible. She might put a dent in the 3rd Class and 2nd Class God's defense, but 1st Class God and Godking are impossible to her. And they could simply wave their hands to kill her.
Raikou was 'actually' amused by Binz and Ain before walking to the subordinates of the former Neo Marine and Revolutionary Army.
"Let's start awakening your Martial Soul." She said, bringing over a thousand people to her domain.
"Wait for me!" Kuina was bored, so she decided to follow Raikou to her domain.
Zephyr, Sabo, and others were speechless. They couldn't sense Raikou's miraculous operation at all. She just disappeared with over a thousand people in the blink of an eye, leaving a quiet ground.
Well, Raikou's matters aside.
Huo Yuhao told Fujitora and Rayleigh to step back because he would awaken Sabo, Zephyr, and four others.
"Hoho, let's see what Martial Souls they could awaken..." Rayleigh said with a wide smile. "This is much more interesting than fooling those nobles and third-rate pirates."
"You..." Fujitora's mouth twitched slightly. As expected of the Dark King, your heart is as dark as your title.
Fujitora sighed and looked away, 'My coworker is a bit unreliable.'
Ignoring Rayleigh and Fujitora's remark on the side, Huo Yuhao drew some runes on the ground and then stared at Sabo, Karasu, Koala, Zephyr, Ain, and Binz.
"You may sit down and close your eyes. Don't resist the influence of my Divinity, or you will get hurt." Huo Yuhao said while clasping his hand, pouring out his divine energy. "Okay, let's start."
Unlike Luffy's group, who possessed immense luck, Sabo and others are actually quite miserable. After all, Huo Yuhao can sense their innate luck flickering non-stop as if a disaster could strike them at any moment.
So, their Spirit Awakening Ceremony is a lot faster. At this point, Huo Yuhao was skilled enough to awaken the Martial Soul of Tiny World's natives.
Honestly, it wasn't that complex. The rules of Tiny World are a bit weird, but it was manageable.
Thinking about it, the eaters of Devil Fruit would never reincarnate as they will become one with the Devil Fruit after their death. It embodies the growth of the concept.
As Sabo and five others sat, Huo Yuhao injected his Divine Fortune into their bodies and cleansed all the impurities. Then, he strengthened their foundation and energy pathways, allowing Spirit Energy to grow inside their core origin.
Sabo closed his eyes and mumbled, "So hot..."
Huo Yuhao glanced at Sabo and thought of the previous eater of Flame-Flame Fruit, "The pure concept of fire is extremely hot. But in this world, a mere magma somehow can transcend one of the fundamental elements."
As the owner of flame-attributed Martial Soul, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but sneer at this world's conceptual rules. "How hilarious. Now, let's return the fire to its glory!"
Huo Yuhao awakened Sabo's Martial Soul, causing him to scream in pain as extreme heat invaded his soul. A bright, orangish-red flame exploded from Sabo's body as a blurry silhouette made of fire appeared behind his back and supported him.
"This is..." Rayleigh stared at the blurry silhouette. "Captain, Roger..."
"No, that is his… Who would have thought I would see him again here after Marineford."
Sabo slowly opened his eyes and glanced back, "You..."
His eyes widened in shock.
The fiery silhouette cleared immediately, and the face of an easygoing man appeared, grinning at Sabo warmly.
He wore a red unbuttoned cloak, short pants, boots, and an orange hat with two emoji-like accessories, one frowning and one smiling.
"Ace." Sabo couldn't help but tear up.
