"Sorry, I thought Mr. Shanks knew Ashura very well."
At first, Fang Yi did want to remind him,
but he was interrupted by the 'Know-It-All King' and so he didn't say anything.
However,
after just drinking ten bottles of Mind's Eye Potion, he discovered the details of Mind's Eye and Wave Force, successfully changing profession to Ashura.
Shanks wasn't bragging; he really did know a lot.
"I really have a big mouth."
Shanks clutched his chest, his face filled with distress.
Normally on the Red Force, he was unrestrained with his words, accustomed to bragging and joking with his crew, and he never expected to lose 20,000 reward points just because he couldn't control his boasting.
But soon,
a smile returned to Shanks's face. He was just that optimistic; no matter how great the loss, he would only feel bad for two minutes.
Then he would dive into a new adventure.
"Wave Imprint!"
Shanks suddenly drew his griffin, and the incomplete blade floated with a wave aura, continuously gathering above his head.
The dense wave aura finally condensed into an intricate spell, constantly circling above his head.
Shanks sensed the power enhanced by the wave aura, and the corners of his mouth turned up as he said, "Mr. Fang Yi, do you mind if I try out my new ability?"
"Of course, do you need me to sell you a target?"
Fang Yi raised his hand,
and a ferocious small King of the Near Sea appeared in the center of the Game House, wagging its spiky tail fin.
King of the Near Sea (Enhanced Version): A small King of the Near Sea with defense stats identical to Kaido. Price: 300 reward points.
"Mr. Fang Yi, you really have a wicked sense of humor!"
Looking at the familiar King of the Near Sea, Shanks's mouth twitched involuntarily.
According to the Game Merchant, the target for testing game abilities could be any creature, but it just had to be the King of the Near Sea that bit off his arm.
"Alright, let's say goodbye to past fate, starting from this moment!"
Shanks raised his arm, gripped his griffin tightly,
and closed his eyes.
A slash, entwined with Haki and waves, descended.
What appeared to be the King of the Near Sea, but actually possessed defense comparable to the strongest creature in the Pirate World, was torn apart by this slash, which effortlessly shredded its flesh, broke its spine, and completely split it in half.
"With the Fish-Fish Fruit and Armed Haki, my full-power swings back then could at most cause some minor injuries to Kaido, like Kozuki Oden did…"
Shanks opened his eyes, slightly shocked, still underestimating the power of the waves.
And now, if that slash just now had landed on Kaido, it could have directly split open his proud immortal body.
"I still can't master Mind's Eye proficiently; I need to wear a blindfold first."
The real world seen by the eyes would interfere with the wave world presented by Mind's Eye.
To gather waves, one had to temporarily close their eyes.
This was very troublesome, so it was best to simply blindfold oneself and gradually get used to the wave world.
From this moment on, I am the 'Ashura Hidden in Darkness, Shanks'!
Shanks primped, tossing his hair, and tied two cloth strips tightly over his eyes.
Fang Yi asked, "Do you want to continue buying fate items?"
"Of course!"
Shanks eagerly looked at the shelves.
His vision was dark, so he quickly concentrated and activated his Mind's Eye ability to draw out the wave world.
The two fate items he had already purchased had brought him tremendous improvement; he could now defeat his former self, who had not redeemed any game abilities, within two moves.
He smiled wryly in his heart.
No wonder Smoker ignored him; the gap between an ordinary person without game abilities and a top player was simply enormous, like a chasm.
The remaining fate items:
One was [Blood of the Conqueror] which could enhance the four-dimensional attributes and had a chance to awaken the power of a Conqueror.
Shanks had already awakened Mind's Eye and mastered Wave Force.
After a brief comparison, he found that the two powers were not very compatible, so he decisively gave up on it.
The other two were equipment that could enhance mental power, and he took both of them.
"Random Key, can refresh the item shelf."
"Buy!"
Shanks looked at the assets being rapidly exchanged, regretting, "If I had known this, I should have occupied more islands like the other Four Emperors."
"Who would have thought that one day, assets would also become a factor determining strength?"
If someone had suddenly run up to him and said that whoever had more assets would be stronger, he would have scoffed.
But now, he truly lacked assets.
He experienced the pain of lacking money for the first time and understood why those ambitious people frantically accumulated wealth and usurped nations.
"If assets are tight, you can wait for the item shelf to refresh automatically after seven days."
"Or hunt Pollution Monsters on Death Island."
Fang Yi thoughtfully offered solutions.
But Shanks rejected them, waving his hand and gritting his teeth, "A great war is imminent. Even if I no longer cling to old fate, the rise of the Navy is still a huge hidden danger that must be severely crippled!"
He wanted to establish an Adventurers' Guild.
Even if its superficial harm was not as great as that of pirates, it would inevitably attract the Navy's attention. Only by inflicting heavy losses on the Navy, making them unable to focus on the Four Seas, could he rapidly establish the Prototype of the Adventurers' Guild during that time.
"As you wish."
Fang Yi smiled broadly and no longer tried to stop him.
With the first Random Key, the item shelf refreshed.
Five brand-new game items appeared.
Shanks's gaze was drawn to a bubble emitting an icy aura.
"Ice Wave Sword."
Fang Yi explained at the perfect moment, "An exclusive skill of Ashura swordsmen, a sword technique imbued with ice waves. When it reaches its peak, even the world will be frozen by the ice waves!"
Buy!
Shanks's eyes lit up, and he laughed, "I can't believe my luck is this good; a wave-type skill appeared on the first try."
Since his luck was soaring, when else would he take a gamble if not now?
There was a belief within the Red Hair Pirates that, while not proven, was accepted by most of the crew.
That was, luck ebbed and flowed like ocean waves. When luck was good, even decisions with the lowest probability should be pursued head-on.
"Congratulations."
Fang Yi maintained his smile.
He didn't manipulate the Random Key's refresh of the item shelf out of malice; everything was guided by the Fate Runes.
But sometimes, the Fate Runes seemed quite devious.
They always presented players with relatively high-quality items in the first few attempts, like scattering bait.
To this day, they had already drained the reward points accumulated by hundreds of players, led by Smoker.
Shanks would probably be no exception this time.
"Wave Burst?"
"It can even fuse with Conqueror's Haki! Even Whitebeard couldn't withstand that shockwave force. Buy!"
After several consecutive Random Keys, another high-quality wave-series skill appeared.
Shanks was very happy, unconsciously immersing himself in it.
…
East Blue, the chaotic battlefield at the edge of Death Island.
Hawkeye and Smoker's battle had ended in a mutual defeat.
Severely burned by the poisonous mist containing fire poison, Hawkeye's entire sword-wielding arm was covered in scars that looked like they had been scorched by flames, and his health had reached the critical line.
Leaning against the deck of the Red Force, he tilted his head back and chugged a recovery potion.
On the other side,
Smoker was also severely injured. The defense of his giant Poison General was torn apart by sword energy, his chest was cut open, and through his ribs, even his beating heart could be seen.
Smoker endured the pain and asked, "How many life recovery potions are left?"
A Marine Captain reported, "Admiral Akainu's battle is fierce, and he took most of the life recovery potions. There are nineteen bottles left for the eastern battlefield."
"Very good."
The Marines had a numerical advantage in players, so they naturally had more life and energy recovery potions.
The battle had been going on for half a day.
Smoker didn't believe that the lone wolf Hawkeye and the Red Hair Pirates, with their few players, could gather many potions.
Those scattered pirates manipulated by Doflamingo would never hand over their potions.
This war of attrition, if nothing unexpected happened, would be a victory for the Marines!
