After the banquet ended, Whitebeard and his crew, now that they had regained their senses, left. They had come to protect Fishman Island, but now that it had become Uchiha Tensei's territory, they had no reason to stay any longer.
After seeing Whitebeard and the others off, Neptune said to Tianqi, "Brother Tianqi, the ship you need will take a few more days to complete. You should stay here at the Dragon Palace for now!"
Tianqi and the others had no objections. In fact, they didn't have anywhere to go on Fishman Island, so staying in the Dragon Palace to eat and drink was a good option. Afterwards, the group went to the room that Puniton had arranged for them.
"Captain, Marshall Teach, one of Whitebeard Newgate's men, seems to be giving you a strange look!" Shanks said to Tianqi after arriving at the room.
“Yes, that Teach looks like a very ambitious person. There must be something wrong with him that he would submit to Whitebeard!” Beckman nodded in agreement with Shanks’ words.
"Hmph! That kind of guy dares to make a move on Lord Tianqi. Doesn't he even know if he has the ability?" Hancock said arrogantly, hands on her hips, as if she were the powerful one.
"Heh, do you think I didn't notice his actions? I noticed him while we were drinking. He's just a despicable little man, destined to amount to nothing in this life. All schemes and tricks are useless in the face of absolute strength. He dares to plot against me, I think he's tired of living!" Tian Qi said disdainfully, not taking Blackbeard Teach seriously at all.
"So you noticed it all along, Captain. It seems we were overthinking it!" Shanks and Beckman nodded, agreeing with Tianqi's words. Indeed, with their captain's strength, Marshall Teach couldn't cause any trouble. In the face of absolute power, schemes were useless.
"Alright, there's no point in studying this. How to deal with Whitebeard is his own business. Everyone's had a long day, so let's all go and rest!" After a busy day, Tianqi wanted to see what help the system could offer him, so he immediately dismissed everyone.
Shanks and Beckman went down to rest after hearing this, but the three Hancock sisters seemed to have something else to do and did not leave.
"Is there anything else you three need?" Tianqi asked, puzzled, seeing that the three Hancock sisters hadn't left yet.
"Lord Tianqi, it's like this. After today's events, we've realized that our strength is far too weak. There will definitely be more powerful people in the new world in the future, and we don't even have the power to protect ourselves. So the three of us are going to eat the Devil Fruits we obtained to increase our strength. We don't expect to reach your level, but at least we can't hold you back!" Hancock said calmly.
Hearing Hancock's words, Tianqi smiled as he looked at the three sisters. It was a good thing that they knew their shortcomings, and it was even more commendable that they did not get lost in money but pursued power. It was really not easy to take this step.
"The Devil Fruits belong to you. You can do whatever you want with them. I won't interfere. However, I'm happy to see that you haven't lost yourselves in the money of exchanging the fruits for Berries!" Tianqi looked at the three Hancock sisters with a smile.
Lian Tianqi agreed to let them eat the Devil Fruit, and the three of them were immediately overjoyed. Although the fruit belonged to them, eating it would expose their weaknesses. Seastone and the sea were their acknowledged weaknesses, and once they had these weaknesses, they would hinder Tianqi's actions. However, now that Tianqi had agreed, none of that mattered anymore.
Goodnight, Lord Tianqi!
The three sisters skipped and hopped away, closing the door behind them as they left, leaving Tianqi alone in the room.
Watching the three sisters skip away, Tianqi shook his head helplessly and thought, "It's good that the little ones are so energetic. The Empress's fate gears have started to turn at this moment. I wonder if she will be able to obtain the ability to petrify this time."
"Forget it, what goes around comes around. No one can take away what belongs to them!" Shaking off these thoughts, Tian Qi immersed himself in the system and began to study it.
After bringing up the system panel, Tianqi discovered that all the items he could exchange in the Naruto world were gone, replaced by rows of One Piece items, including Haki and the Six Powers of the Navy.
"Not bad, not bad. Everything in the new world has been replaced with things from the One Piece world. This system is pretty powerful. It completed all these actions without me even realizing it. I really don't know how the resurrected ones managed to create this. However, it's unreasonable that there are things to exchange but no missions are issued to me to earn points." Tian Qi was happy to see the items being updated, but without points, he could only watch helplessly.
Just as Tianqi was still struggling with how to accumulate points, he opened his points balance and was immediately stunned. The reason was that his points actually showed 5.55 million.
"Where did I get over five million points? System, come out and explain!" Tian Qi quickly called on the system upon seeing the points that had suddenly appeared on his mind.
[Ding! According to the system's programmed instructions, after the host acquires sufficient power in the first world, the rules will change upon arrival in the second world. The system will no longer issue missions thereafter; the host will need to defeat enemies to gain points.]
"Gain points by killing enemies? Damn! I wiped out almost 30,000 people today and only got about 5 million points. That's worthless!" Upon hearing that he would have to kill enemies to gain points, Tian Qi recalled how he had wiped out almost 30,000 people today and only got this few points. He complained again.
But joking aside, I mostly wiped out weaklings today, so getting this many points is enough. You know, there are so many people in this world, it's not that hard to get points.
However, now that he had over five million points, how could he not spend them to make up for his actions today? Tian Qi immediately started checking out the various skills in the One Piece world. In the end, he focused on the Haki category. Exchanging for things like the Six Styles of the Navy and swordsmanship would be a waste of points. He could easily exchange for these skill-based items. As for Devil Fruits, the tens of millions of points directly deterred Tian Qi. It was not worth killing hundreds of thousands of people for a Devil Fruit. He was not a real demon and could not do things like killing ordinary people at will. It was better to maintain some respect for these living beings, unless they were all heinous criminals.
Conqueror's Haki: This is a kingly quality. Those who possess this Haki can intimidate, scare, and even knock out enemies without lifting a finger, simply by virtue of their aura. They can also cause opponents much weaker than themselves to faint. It costs ten million points to exchange for. (Note: Possessing kingly quality reduces the points requirement by half.)
Observation Haki: This type of Haki sharpens the user's five senses, allowing them to perceive the presence of surrounding beings and changes in their emotions. It can also be used to anticipate and avoid danger. It is worth one million points. (Note: Possessing Conqueror's Haki reduces the points requirement by half.)
Armament Haki: This is a type of Haki that enhances one's defense and attack power, and can also detect the flow of Logia-type body energy. This Haki can be applied to the user's body or attached to objects. It is worth 600,000 points. (Note: Possessing Observation Haki reduces the point requirement by half.)
"This Conqueror's Haki truly lives up to its reputation as the aura of a king. The price of ten million is reasonable, but even though it is reasonable, I don't have that many points. Isn't this just messing with people?" Tian Qi was annoyed again when he saw that Conqueror's Haki actually cost ten million points.
With his current five million points, he can only exchange them for Observation Haki and Armament Haki. As for Conqueror's Haki, he is still half a point short. He can't just go out and kill tens of thousands of people for ten thousand points, can he? If he did that, he would really become a monster who slaughters people.
But just then, Tianqi noticed the notes at the back. Looking at the three domineering notes linked together, Tianqi felt annoyed again.
"Although it can reduce the points by half, the way you've gone through this step-by-step process is too complicated. Besides, how am I supposed to know if I have the potential to become a King? You're just messing with me!"
