[Under normal circumstances, the laws of a world are relatively stable, and this stability is the foundation for life to exist. However, in extremely rare special cases, during the development of certain worlds, their laws fail to solidify as usual and instead remain in a chaotic and disordered state.]
The virtual administrator explained.
[This chaotic state may manifest as distortions in the timeline, erratic weather changes, and various phenomena that defy common sense...]
[For a powerful individual residing in such a world, although their abilities may be suppressed due to the chaos and disorder, there are various benefits to their development.]
Evidently, the fact that the virtual administrator would send out so much information at once indicated that the world of Conan was indeed a very peculiar world.
"It seems, Miss Haibara," Roy said slowly, a hint of amazement in his voice, "that the world you come from also holds hidden mysteries."
These words left Haibara Ai momentarily stunned, a flicker of confusion crossing her eyes.
She had never considered the world she lived in to be chaotic or special. Day after day, what was so special about it?
But Roy thought otherwise.
When you thought about it, in the world of Conan, over a thousand episodes, how many summer and winter vacations had already passed?
One moment it was summer, the next it was winter, and yet after all this time, he was still an elementary school student for eternity.
It was indeed terrifying to think about.
[So, Mr. Roy, is there a way for you to reach that world?] Haibara Ai asked.
Clearly, under the influence of some force, she was unaware of what made her world special, but since this world held value for him, perhaps it could also bring her some unexpected help.
Roy seemed to see through her thoughts. He smiled slightly and asked, "Since it is a world full of possibilities and beneficial to both of us, it wouldn't hurt to explore it."
[Virtual administrator, is there a convenient way to achieve this goal?]
The virtual administrator responded promptly, its voice echoing in the void with mechanical calm:
[There is indeed a method. By using a certain amount of points, a gateway to a specific world can be opened. However, this process requires the explicit consent of a resident of the target world, which would be Miss Haibara Ai.]
Hearing this, Haibara Ai's mood suddenly turned to joy, an unprecedented light gleaming in her eyes.
Roy looked at her.
[I do hope to enter your mysterious world. In exchange, I will do my best to provide you with protection.]
Moreover, Roy actually wanted to try and see if, in this unique world, he could teach her his own power.
The corners of Haibara Ai's mouth unconsciously turned up. She agreed to Roy's proposal almost without hesitation.
At this moment, she felt as if she was seeing the key to changing her fate.
[There are many matters that haven't been arranged properly recently. To ensure everything goes smoothly, let's attempt this in a few days.]
The two solemnly agreed upon a time.
With the agreement made, Roy's figure gradually blurred, as if pulled by an invisible force, returning to his own world.
Simultaneously, Haibara Ai's consciousness abruptly returned to reality. She found herself sitting quietly in her room.
She gently stroked the pages beside her, an indescribable emotion surging in her heart — a mix of disbelief, excitement, and anticipation.
[This is not a dream.]
She confirmed it again; what had just happened was not a dream.
Haibara Ai knew that from this moment on, her life was about to undergo an unprecedented transformation.
Back in the world of One Piece, Roy smiled slightly. He was indeed curious about the world of Conan and also wanted to take this opportunity to interact with Haibara Ai, a popular character.
But Roy quickly adjusted his mindset, focusing all his attention on the chakra within his body.
At that moment, aided by his Observation Haki, Roy clearly perceived that within the meridians running throughout his body, in addition to the Armament Haki, there was now a new form of energy.
This energy was chakra.
The chakra, thin as silk threads, slowly flowed through the meridians in his body, sometimes converging into tiny streams, sometimes dispersing into points of light.
With the constant circulation and accumulation of this energy, Roy even felt his body undergoing subtle yet positive changes under its nourishment, as if every muscle and every bone was quietly being strengthened.
Faced with this sudden discovery, a bold and novel thought flashed through Roy's mind — he wondered if it was possible to fuse Armament Haki with chakra, thereby creating an unprecedented and powerful force.
Harboring this curiosity, Roy began his attempt.
He tried to directly bring the two forces together within his meridians, but the result was not as desired. The two powers seemed to have some insurmountable boundary, repelling each other and unable to coexist harmoniously.
Although his first attempt ended in failure, Roy was not discouraged. He keenly sensed that this did not mean the path to fusion was completely blocked; it was just that he had yet to find the key to unlock the door of fusion.
Perhaps it was also because his current strength and understanding had not yet reached that level.
Roy then turned his attention to ninjutsu. The ninjutsu he had seen in anime were now before his eyes.
"Great Fireball Technique, Substitution Technique…"
Roy softly murmured the names of these ninjutsu. Although, given his current strength, these ninjutsu might not be able to play a significant role, each skill was still an accumulation.
He tried forming hand seals, his fingers tracing smooth trajectories in the air.
When Roy successfully released the Great Fireball Technique for the first time, although the scale of the flame was still not what he had hoped for, it was still considered a success.
[Wait, speaking of ninjutsu, what would happen if I used Water Release on the sea?]
This sudden thought instantly lit up Roy's mind.
He abruptly stopped his movements, a look of excitement mixed with curiosity appearing on his face.
As is well known, in the world of One Piece, seawater is the natural enemy of Devil Fruit users. Upon contact, even the most powerful user would instantly lose their strength, becoming as vulnerable as an ordinary person.
Ninjutsu, especially Water Release techniques, are skills that manipulate water.
If the two were combined, using Water Release on the sea surface to command the vast, boundless seawater as a means of attack, what a breathtaking scene that would be?
Its strategic value would undoubtedly be immeasurable.
Thinking of this, Roy's eyes sparkled with light.
