On board the Ark Proverbs.
Bored, Luo Heng took out the famous sword Anubis that he got from the auction house.
In Luo Heng's previous life, Anubis was the god of death in ancient Egyptian mythology. He didn't expect to see the name of this god again in the world of pirates.
After all, this comic was drawn by Earthlings, so it's understandable that even the names of the Five Elder Stars are the same as the five major planets.
In view of the auctioneer's description of the knife, Luo Heng carefully took it in his hand through a piece of cloth and examined it.
It is indeed a good knife, very heavy in the hand and of moderate weight, which Luo Heng is very satisfied with.
With a gentle scratch on the corner of the wooden table in the cabin, a piece of wood was easily cut off.
After studying it for a while, Luo Heng finally couldn't hold back his temper and reached out to grab the handle made of Anubis leather.
After all, with his strength at this level, it would be unbelievable if he couldn't even subdue a knife.
The moment he grasped it, a strange force suddenly came from the hilt and penetrated into Luo Heng's palm.
His palm visibly shriveled up, and the knife was actually sucking Luo Heng's vitality.
Moreover, the handle of the knife tightly sucked his palm, and he could not get rid of it no matter what.
Luo Heng immediately wrapped his palms around it with his domineering aura.
But what he didn't expect was that even with the obstruction of domineering aura, Anubis was still slowly absorbing his vitality, and even the domineering aura was dissolving at an extremely slow speed.
"This thing is really weird. If an ordinary person holds it in his hands, he will probably die." Luo Heng frowned.
"However, perhaps I can try the power of the fruit. The current Sand-Sand Fruit also has a similar effect. Maybe this sword will think it is of the same kind."
Luo Heng thought about it and injected the power of corrosion into it. A corrosive force stronger than Anubis began to penetrate back into the handle of the knife.
The two similar forces began to confront each other fiercely, and it was difficult to tell which was the winner.
The desert is synonymous with death. There is no water and no life.
Once any life enters, it will be sucked dry by this forbidden zone of death, taking away all vitality.
This is also Luo Heng’s current understanding of the Sand-Sand Fruit.
Especially after the natural fruit awakens, it will have the power to permanently change the natural environment.
It's like after Akainu and Aokiji fought for ten days, a permanent special geological environment was formed - the Ice and Fire Island.
When the Straw Hat Pirates first entered the New World, they also saw an island where lightning was constantly released from the sky.
Luo Heng seriously suspected that this island was probably created after the previous user of the Thunder Fruit awakened, which is something that no other devil fruit can do.
When the concept of Haki first appeared in comics, most people believed that this ability would inevitably drag the invincible natural fruit off the altar, and that the mythical beast or superhuman fruit would be the real strongest.
But when Luo Heng's fruit awakened, he realized that all this was nonsense.
The power that can change the entire world should be the strongest fruit.
The natural fruit definitely lives up to its title of the strongest.
As the corrosive force from Luo Heng continued to penetrate, Anubis gradually began to fall into a disadvantage.
The knife seemed to sense that the power injected by Luo Heng was of the same origin as its own, and slowly began to accept it.
A dim white light began to quietly bloom on the blade.
"This sword is very likely from Alabasta. It's even very likely that its previous owner was also a user of the Sand-Sand Fruit."
"So is there a possibility that the Sand Country Alabasta has become what it is today under the influence of this person with special abilities?" Luo Heng couldn't help but make a bold guess.
Finally, the breath of death from Anubis no longer attacked Luo Heng. Even though Luo Heng withdrew his armament domineering, he could not feel any hostility from the other party, as if he had surrendered to the new master.
Luo Heng's corrosive power seemed to have merged with the deathly energy that originally existed in the knife.
The white halo on the entire blade of the knife became increasingly dense, and was approximately more than a finger thick.
Seeing a plate of bright red apples on the table, Luo Heng lightly touched them with the light of his knife.
A strange thing happened. The part of the apple that Anubis had just touched immediately withered and rotted, and spread at a very fast rate.
In just a few breaths, the entire apple turned into powder.
Even other apples next to it began to show this phenomenon.
Luo Heng was just about to grab the last remaining apple when a flash of lightning suddenly appeared and snatched the apple into his hand.
"Boss, these are the only few I have. How am I supposed to survive the next few days?" It was Enel who noticed something was wrong and rushed in to rescue his precious baby.
Seeing the plate of black and gray powder on the table, Enel couldn't help but complain with a sad face.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen." Luo Heng said with pursed lips in embarrassment.
"Well, the one in your hand." Luo Heng pointed at the only remaining apple in Enel's hand and said hesitantly.
"What the hell is this thing?" Enel looked down and noticed that the apple was constantly being eroded by death energy, and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Maybe, it might be a power related to death." Luo Heng said after thinking for a while.
"I think there's a little bit of it stuck to my hand."
"Wait, this thing is devouring my vitality." Enel said in surprise.
"I suggest you find a way to get it away from you as soon as possible, otherwise something bad might happen." Luo Heng said seriously.
Upon hearing this, Enel hurriedly used lightning to try to eliminate the deathly aura.
I didn't expect that this thing was so stubborn. Not only did it not disappear, but the area became a little bigger.
"This thing is too weird. Let's think of a way quickly!" Enel increased the power in a panic and stopped the spread of the death energy.
"How about you try to elementalize your body?" Luo Heng said with an idea.
Enel currently has no other choice but to go along with the advice.
Sure enough, when Enel transformed his arm into an element, the deathly aura that could not find a physical target immediately dissipated.
"Can you explain it to me? What on earth is this?" Enel asked with sweat all over his forehead.
"Well, it should be that some characteristics of my fruit ability and some of the properties of this knife have been integrated together." Luo Heng said as a matter of course.
"Fruit abilities and characteristics? How come I don't know about them?" Enel asked in confusion.
"Can't you use electromagnetic waves to expand the range of the heart network? Isn't this also a kind of characteristic?" Luo Heng asked back.
"Does this count? I don't have a trait like yours that can cause damage." Enel answered cautiously.
"Well, this involves the understanding of devil fruits." Luo Heng said, leaving the question unanswered.
