Chapter 799: Wholesale Homies (5,500 words)
It must be explained first that this cloud of fire similar to Prometheus is not made of Lynch’s soul fragments.
Since it was hovering above Ace's head, it must be Ace's.
Lynch just wanted to experience the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit and try to create a strange creation like the Homitz, but he had no interest in separating his own soul fragments - even just a little bit.
After all, the characteristic of his stand is to replicate all the power of the original body.
The Homies made from the fragments of his own soul is undoubtedly also a part of the original body. When he looks back and reproduces the substitute, the substitute will also imitate the original body and separate an identical substitute Homies. In this way, not only will he have an extra identical Homies at ordinary times, but if he wants to recycle the substitute, he must also recycle its Homies. It is always troublesome.
Before coming down the mountain, Lynch felt the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit, and while Ace was eager to try, he took out "half a day" of his life from his flaming soul and turned it into soul fragments.
Ace used the power of the Flame-Flame Fruit to create a large area of fire, but Lynch stretched out his hand, and the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit surged out, bringing the waves of fire all over the mountain into his palm, and combining it with Ace's "Half Sky" soul fragments to create a fire cloud that looked like Prometheus in the shape of an old lady. Ace followed behind to communicate with the Fire Cloud Homies, so he fell behind Lynch and Robin.
This Fire Cloud Homies was named "Roger" by Ace.
"Roger?!"
Chopper, Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Franky, Usopp and others were all surprised.
"You named it after your father?"
Joz and other members of the White Group looked at Ace and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why isn't it Dad's name?"
Ace twirled his beard and said, "Stupid! I can fly around and order this kid around whenever I want. How can I use my dad's name?"
"So you use your biological father's name?" Everyone was stunned.
The thought of Ace sitting on the fire cloud, arrogantly patting his mount and shouting "Roger, get on!", "Roger, help me...", "Damn Roger!" is a bit unbearable to watch.
Marco was smiling. The fact that Ace could do such a thing calmly proved that he had completely reconciled with his biological father.
The name of Father Whitebeard will be remembered forever thanks to the pirate group inherited by his sons.
What about Roger? Ace named the Fire Cloud "Roger" as a commemoration of his father. But because of his face, the boy didn't want to say it out loud.
"He can name me after a broken knife, but I can't name him after a cloud?" Ace snorted, crossing his arms.
Vista said earnestly: "That's not a broken sword! It's the supreme sword that has been with the Pirate King in battle for many years..."
The supreme sword? When a certain green algae-head heard about the sword, he became excited and asked a few questions. After learning the reason, he asked Ace: "This is a good sword. Why didn't I see you use it when fighting Blackbeard?"
Ace was speechless, and Zoro suddenly understood that Luffy's brother definitely couldn't use a sword at all.
One year after the end of the Battle of Marineford, "Flame Beard" led the new White Beard Pirates to fight everywhere, struggling to defend the territory of their father White Beard.
Although the knife of the same name is powerful, Ace is undoubtedly better at the ability of the Flame-Flame Fruit. In the continuous battles without a break, Ace has no time to practice swordsmanship. Facing the new Four Emperors Blackbeard, his former subordinate Teach, and the most familiar stranger, Ace can't be so bold as to use a knife.
The flame hovering above Ace's head restrained its own heat waves, like a small sun the size of a fist, with a face similar to Ace's, politely saying to the curious humans on the ground: "Hello, I'm 'Roger', thank you for your guidance..."
"It really looks like Big Mom's!" Chopper was surprised, and quickly went over with Usopp and Luffy to see what's new.
Brooke came over to Lynch and exchanged experiences on soul power.
He had heard Lin Qi mention his interest in soul-type devil fruits a long time ago. If the Yomiuri fruit could not be removed from Brook, Lin Qi would have played with it long ago! When he met Big Mom this time, Instructor Lin had indeed obtained Big Mom's Soul Soul Fruit and was playing with it and pondering it carefully.
But Brook knew that although Lynch seemed calm and composed, he never relaxed and was always trying his best to improve his strength.
In the usual practice, when Lynch killed several top navy fighters in the battle of Marinford, he almost reached the peak of the world, on par with the great pirates of the era, such as the Pirate King, Whitebeard, and even Rocks. Normally speaking, at this level, the strength has reached its limit, and all you can do is try to maintain the peak period for as long as possible. However, Lynch was ingenious and took a "deviant path". By refining the plundered power, he forcibly strengthened himself and made another breakthrough on top of the combat power that had already reached the ceiling.
As one of only two people who have awakened their Stand, Brook could probably guess that the reason why Lynch was a little concerned about the soul-type Devil Fruit was that he must have wanted to find a further way out of the "evil path" through his Stand.
Or perhaps, Instructor Lin already had an idea in mind, and the Soul-Soul Fruit and the like were just used as a reference.
Lynch's combat power and realm are far beyond those of others. Brook can only try his best to provide some of his own insights. After all, he is also the user of the Yomiuri Fruit who is known as the "King of Souls".
After discussing for a while, Lynch looked up and saw Luffy and the others proudly wearing "Roger" on their heads, pretending it was a flame hat and playing with each other, just like playing house...
He smiled and said, "This is a rare opportunity, how about making a few more?"
Robin looked at Ace and smiled, "With Ace here, it will be convenient to 'feed' Huoyun Homies."
"You don't want it anymore?" Ace touched his head. "Then I'll become a laborer on the ship? Or a 'pet feeder'? It feels so disgusting!"
It would have been fine if he hadn't said it. Once he did, everyone in the Bai Group responded with a roar: "Come on, come on! Everyone, take one! Think of a name first!"
Ace laughed.
Lin Qi rubbed his fingers together, his bones crackling, and said with a smile: "No hurry, come one by one."
Zoro was also watching the fun. Suddenly, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that Nami seemed to have noticed something at the edge of the crowd and moved closer to Sanji in the corner of the crowd.
"What's wrong with you?" Nami sat down and smiled, "Zoro's bounty is much higher than yours, but he didn't say a word. That's not like you!"
The fragrant breeze blew over, and Sanji's spirits lifted. He showed a peach-shaped look, "Ms. Nami..."
"Is that why?"
A bounty was placed in front of Sanji, and a slender finger pointed at the surname in front of Sanji's name, "Vinsmoke", and the words "Only alive" below, which was completely different from the usual life or death.
Sanji's smile froze on his face. He quickly sighed, scratched his head and said, "It's no big deal. Miss Nami, you don't have to—"
Nami threw the bounty order on his face. Sanji couldn't see Miss Nami's expression because her face was covered by the bounty order. He only heard her scolding: "You look like it's no big deal? If you have any troubles, just tell us and we can find a solution together! Aren't we partners?"
As if he could imagine her with her hands on her hips, looking fierce and concerned, Sanji rubbed the bounty order against his face, took it away and smiled: "Well, I do have something bothering me. Actually..."
"I don't want to hear it now." Nami rolled her eyes. "Everyone is having a great time, let's talk about it after the party~" After that, she walked away humming a song.
Seeing her briskly return to the crowd, Sanji covered his chest with his hands in happiness. Miss Nami is simply an angel! Robin glanced at Nami, smiled and put on her sunglasses.
"Wow!" Nami covered her forehead and exclaimed with a smile as countless heat waves hit her head.
Above the clearing in the woods, amid the crowd's exclamations, Ace punched out balls of fire one after another. Lynch then took out "half a day" of life from the souls of the people in the white group and combined it with the balls of fire to form fire cloud Homies with different facial features and personalities.
"I'm Watatsumi..."
"My name is Hachiman..."
"I'm Ikaga," said the fire cloud hovering above Joz's head.
"The stone is longer than the price..."
"Inari God..."
A dozen or so fire clouds were spinning around, chirping and introducing themselves.
"My name is Daitengu." The fire cloud surrounding Vista said with great momentum. Luffy and Chopper pointed at its long nose and shouted: "Usopp!"
Usopp gave the two funny guys a knife and said, "I'm here!"
Lynch was a little surprised. Big Mom's Homies had a flavor of Greek gods, but the Whitebeard group had a very Japanese style. It seemed that Kozuki Oden had left a deep influence on Whitebeard's ship! He casually took a "half-day" life from Marco's hand and turned it into a soul fragment. With his other hand, he grabbed Ace and sprayed a ball of fire. The two combined and condensed into a small fireball with a pineapple-like hairstyle. As soon as he opened his eyes, he rubbed against Marco intimately and piled on his head, just like two pineapples stacked on top of each other.
"You can call yourself 'Susanoo'." Marco said with a smile, "I was worried about how to enter Wano Country without the power of the Phoenix. It will be much easier with this Fire Cloud."
"What about us?" Nami raised her hand, winked at Lin Qi, and said with a smile, "We have already made the Fire Cloud, wouldn't it be a pity not to make the Thunder Cloud?"
"That makes sense!" Lin Qi grabbed the dark blue iron rod and tapped his palm, saying leisurely, "However, the name of Hefeng has already been taken, so let's change the mythology system."
"Change it?" Nami looked around. Luffy, Zoro and the others all had question marks over their heads. This bunch of illiterate muscle men, let them come up with names? Robin smiled and suggested, "I can provide some names..."
We have used the Greek gods and the wind gods, but don't we also have the Norse gods? ...
"What are they arguing about?"
Sphinx, on the coast, Perona was bored and picked up piles of food to feed the island whale Lab that had popped up. She heard rumbling thunder behind her and couldn't help but look up at the sky. There were no dark clouds at all!
She held the boat elf Merry in her arms as if she were a doll.
Perona's ghost fruit is also a soul-type devil fruit, and it is quite close to elves like Meili.
Meli curled up in Perona's arms and slept soundly.
In Perona's hand, she was touching a fruit with strange patterns, which was the Shadow Fruit.
Her original intention was that she didn't want to see Moria's ability stay in the bodies of the murderers who killed him. She didn't want to take the Shadow-Shadow Fruit for herself - as long as it wasn't given to the Charlotte family, it would be fine to give it to anyone. But Perona didn't expect that before she opened her mouth, Lynch casually stuffed the thing he took out of Brulee's body into a fruit, and threw it to her without taking it seriously.
This is a devil fruit! It's worth more than 100 million berries!
And it is a very precious Shadow Fruit!
The abilities of the former Seven Warlords of the Sea!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Perona was indignant and subconsciously touched the Shadow-Shadow Fruit with her hand. Suddenly, there was a thunder from behind her, which frightened her so much that her hand trembled and the Shadow-Shadow Fruit slipped out of her hand and fell into the sea.
"not good!"
Lab swam over, raised its huge head, and the Shadow Fruit bounced, and then an elf-like little guy flew over to catch it.
Meili seemed to find it amusing, and threw the Shadow Fruit down again. It bounced over Lab's head, and Meili immediately flew over to catch it. Just as she was about to continue playing, Perona jumped on the shore, "Stop playing!"
Meili turned around, stuck out her tongue at Perona, and made a face. She looked towards the island where the thunder was rolling, and her eyes suddenly lit up, "I'm going to play with Heige!"
"Don't throw it around!" Perona quickly separated a negative ghost and carefully caught the falling Shadow Fruit.
Her ghost can not only make people negative and pessimistic, but also has a simpler and more brutal ability, which is - explosion.
Boom!
The sound of thunder behind her startled Perona again. She put away the Shadow Fruit and turned back to settle accounts with the gang. It must be the orange-haired witch! But when she found the gang, Perona was stunned. She saw a white cloud hovering above the orange-haired witch's head. On the cloud were delicate features similar to Nami's, but unlike Nami, her big eyes did not flash with cunning from time to time. Instead, they looked like smoky makeup and looked listless. Suddenly, she looked at Perona, with pride in her eyes and curled her lips.
I was underestimated by a cloud? Perona rolled her eyes and walked over. The white cloud above Nami's head was exactly the same as the thunderclouds that Big Mom kept on Thunder God Island! Not only that, above or beside the heads of Green Algae Head, Colored Cook, and others, there was a white cloud with different expressions and features! Perona looked at the Whitebeard Pirates again. Marco, Joz, Vista, and Captain Ace were all chatting with a fiery red cloud with a smile. She was shocked. What was going on? Big Mom's Homies were doing wholesale? ——She suddenly realized and turned her head to find Lynch in the crowd. He was sitting with Robin, and in front of them, there was also a similar thundercloud.
Robin spread out the book with the names of the gods in Norse mythology in front of Lei Yun and asked with a smile, "How about it, have you decided on a name?"
With the blue-black iron rod against his chin, Lynch looked at the thundercloud - just like the aunt's Zeus magically had a peaked cap, Robin's thundercloud Homies also had a shape: the facial features looked like Robin, and on the eyes he strangely wore a pair of glasses like a female monitor, revealing the temperament of a literary young woman.
Literary Young Woman... This thundercloud quickly picked a name.
Lynch took a look and exclaimed, "Wow." - "Ymir."
"The ancestor of giants?" Robin said with a smile, "I also often use the ability of gigantic size. It seems that we get along well."
Ymir nodded without saying anything, floated to Robin's side, and hung beside her very quietly.
It is very quiet, which other thunderclouds are not.
"I am Thor! The God of Lightning." A thundercloud was speeding around Zoro like a person with ADHD.
The other thundercloud seemed to like it very much and chased Thor around. Chopper exclaimed, "My Mjolnir seems to like your Thor very much, Zoro!"
Zoro chuckled.
"Modi, good Modi..." Usopp was stroking the plump thundercloud in his arms with a kind face, "Can you let me sit on it and fly for a while?"
Modi said weakly: "I don't have the strength..."
"Nami!" Usopp immediately jumped up and shouted, "Help charge Modi!"
"No problem!" Nami smiled and made an OK gesture, "One charge, 10,000 Baileys."
"They're charging me?!" Usopp had a face full of horror, and soon or2 pounded the ground with tears in his eyes, "I knew you had bad intentions when you suggested that Lynch make some thunderclouds for everyone... Damn it..."
“It’s okay if you don’t want to pay! You want to charge it?” Nami shouted, “Hela, charge it!”
The cold and arrogant thundercloud floating above Nami's head immediately turned dark, with thunder surging inside. Usopp burst into tears and hurriedly raised the chubby thundercloud Modi to block in front of him.
Boom! "You really can chop!"
"Hey, isn't this what you want to charge?"
"Too much! Witch! Greedy girl! Lady Nami, I was wrong!!! Ah!!!"
"What a commotion!" Franky crossed his hairy legs, lying on his wide thundercloud, drinking Coke comfortably, "World Tree, do you want to drink?"
"No, I want to eat lightning."
"How can this be possible! A man should drink Coke!"
"Really?"
"Is there anything to eat?" Luffy suddenly jumped over, stepped on the Thunder Cloud World Tree, and was kicked down by Franky, "No!"
Luffy was like a nimble monkey, clapping his mouth and shouting in the air, while jumping between his companions, Thundercloud Thor, Mjolnir, Hela, Modi..., having a lot of fun.
Yo ho ho ho~ Yo ho ho ho~~
Brooke played music, notes pouring out one after another. He had a substitute, and the soul was very important to him, so he did not create a Homies.
Luffy did not do anything like Brook and Lynch, but unlike Lynch and the others, he smiled and said, "It's useful for my friends! There are so many!" Then he was hit by thousands of thunders. Unfortunately, he was a rubber man, and lightning was of no use to him, so everyone decided to spare him.
Perona stared for a long time, and suddenly heard a voice: "How about you come too?"
She turned her head and saw it was Robin.
"I don't have fire or lightning." Perona said. Ace and Nami can easily replenish the "physical strength" of the fire and thunder clouds, but she doesn't have - wait. "Will 'explosion' work?"
"Try it?" Lynch walked over and covered Perona with his big hand.
Perona closed her eyes, waited for a while and then opened one eye. Lynch held the fragment of "Half Day" in his hand and glared at her, "What are you doing? Where's the 'explosion'?"
"Oh oh!" Perona quickly waved her hand and released a dozen explosive little ghosts, which exploded one by one.
A series of explosions were contained by Lynch using the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit and merged with Perona's "Half-Sky" soul fragments.
Soon, Perona held an explosion cloud in her arms happily, "You can call it 'Sleeping Beauty'."
Lynch's curiosity was answered. He thought it was a Roman myth, but it turned out to be a fairy tale.
"Let's have a banquet!" Luffy shouted to the sky with his fist raised while jumping between thunderclouds.
…
In the lively banquet, celebrating the return of Joz, Labster, He-man and Reg, Robin smiled and cut a piece of meat and handed it to Lynch, but found that he was looking up at the sky.
Robin looked up and couldn't help but smile.
The flying snake spread its wings and hovered in the air. The tall and graceful figure of the peerless empress was standing on the back of the snake.
