Hearing this, Hancock couldn't help but nod, even amidst the laughter of the other party. After all, it was a bit too absurd—a billion-dollar emperor of the sea.
"But this is quite fun, and how many pirate kings are there on this sea now?"
Hancock was taken aback when she heard this, and then looked at the man with a strange expression.
"Lord Lynch, ever since you deliberately left Vera Luffy aside in Sabaody Archipelago, countless people have rushed there, and now there's talk of people becoming the Pirate King before they even reach it."
“That old man Rayleigh was so angry that he stopped drinking altogether.”
Hancock couldn't help but chuckle when she thought about the content of Shakky's call. After all, this behavior was tantamount to trampling on the name of the Pirate King Roger and rubbing it underfoot.
Chapter 624 Young girl, do you want power?
"I just wanted to fulfill everyone's dream because this world is called One Piece. Running to that crappy place and getting caught is ridiculous. Do you even know what a king is?"
"So by doing this, I completely devalued the name, or rather, the name I obtained in this way became worthless."
"I gave those people a new goal, to become the true Pirate King. Those people should thank me properly. As for the mediocre remnants of the old era, they were just lucky to be born under such flawed rules."
"They call him the Pirate King as soon as they arrive in that place, and that guy got that title on that ship too. I think it's absolutely outrageous."
"I've wanted to complain for a long time about how your world selects the Pirate King. Shouldn't it be the absolute king who rules over all the pirates?"
Hancock couldn't refute this, after all, that's just how the world is, and there's nothing she can do to change it.
"As for this, all I can say is that the world is just like this. As for why it is like this, I don't really know."
After Hancock joined the chat group, she also realized that the way the world selects the Pirate King was a bit strange. Going to an island and being called the Pirate King was a bit absurd.
"Alright, I should go now. I'll come see you again in a while."
Even though she was reluctant to part, Hancock nodded after hearing this.
Lynch disappeared the next moment.
Hancock watched the person disappear and fell silent. Then she stood up, knowing she had to get on with her business. After all, she was a king, so she should at least keep busy.
Lin Qi teleported directly back home to his room. Looking at the familiar room, which he hadn't been back for over half a month, he lay down on the bed without hesitation.
Lying on this soft, fluffy bed, he felt like he had been resurrected.
Lin Qi lay quietly, then heard a knock on the door. The next moment, he used his telekinesis to open the door, and saw someone peek in.
"Onii-chan, you're back?"
Ruiye popped in at that moment with a joyful expression on her face.
Lin Qi sat up with a smile after the other person walked in.
"Ruiye, I'm back."
After standing up, Lin Qi gave the other person a hug. He felt incredibly at ease smelling the familiar scent on the other person.
Ruiye nestled in Lin Qi's arms a few times.
For this young girl, being in the other person's arms was the most reassuring place.
"How did you know I was back? It can't be some kind of telepathy like in TV dramas, right? I never gave you that kind of ability."
Lin Qi was a little puzzled. How did the other party know that he had returned?
The other person was a perfectly ordinary person, so it seems a bit strange that they knocked on the door after I came back.
Faced with Lin Qi's doubts, Ruiye spoke up to explain.
"Sister Lazuli told me that someone is in your room."
"I can't sense your presence, but I can feel the noise when you come back, so only you would appear in this room."
Ruiye explained.
Upon hearing this, Lin Qi suddenly realized that it was not surprising that the other party knew he had returned.
"I see. If the other party knows me, then I'm not really surprised."
"Hey, is it the weekend today?"
Lin Qi suddenly wondered if it was the weekend. After all, the other party was still here at this time.
"Correct."
"Except for Sister Lazuli who is at home, everyone else is outside."
Lin Qi wasn't particularly affected by these words, since it was quite normal; everyone had things to do.
Lin Qi simply picked her up and carried her back to the bed.
"Ruiye, do you want power?"
At this moment, Lin Qi looked at the other party and spoke with a smile.
Ruiye was stunned when she heard this, and looked at Lin Qi with a confused expression.
These words came so suddenly that the girl didn't react for a moment.
"Onii-chan, what do you mean by that?"
Ruiye tilted her head, looking at Lin Qi with a confused expression.
"Have you found the method you mentioned before?"
Ruiye remembered that the other party had said that she couldn't directly grant her the power right now. Even if she could, the power would disappear once he went to the other world, since it was powered by him as the source; his absence would be equivalent to cutting off the connection...
The key point is what the other party mentioned before: they wanted them to have priority in terms of lifespan, but that system can't do that right now.
Could it be that there's a solution now?
Upon hearing this, Lin Qi immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum.
"No, no, no, I still can't do anything about this."
"However, I went outside and did some experiments, and I found that it can give you strength. But it's not as powerful as you might imagine, and the warranty is still more than enough."
Lin Qi did a quick simulation and was quite certain that this power wouldn't make the opponent much stronger, but it would be fine as long as they didn't encounter any monsters.
Domineering aura really does enhance physical abilities, I've discovered that myself. The higher the level, the greater the enhancement, though I'm definitely not as strong as I was before. But it still surpasses many people, and most importantly, it's enough to protect myself.
"You've seen One Piece, right?"
Lin Qi suddenly spoke up, and the other party nodded, confirming that he had indeed seen it.
"Yes, I've seen it. Could it be one of the Devil Fruits inside?"
Ruiye's first thought was those Devil Fruits, since those were the only things that could give a person power.
It couldn't be something like domineering, could it? I don't have that.
At this moment, Lin Qi took out some orbs of light.
"There's been a problem over there. Most of the powerful ones are dead, and now those worth 1 billion can be called the Emperor of the Sea. As for the three types of Haki of those who died, I stripped them off before they died, and they can be directly integrated into people's bodies."
“I left many of the top ones there, but I also kept some and brought them back.”
"For example, if just one of these orbs enters your body, you can become a powerful master on that side."
"Of course, physical fitness will improve, but it won't be as strong as those who train all the time."
Chapter 625 Saginog, being a tsundere type, is likely to cause trouble.
Ruiye was somewhat incredulous upon hearing Lin Qi's words. After all, she understood those things from the comics, but she still had to ask. But could this thing really be separated? And seeing him separate it and give it to her, what was this? An incredible feat?
As for the claim that this substance, once inside her body, would make her stronger, but its effects weren't as good as those who trained themselves, she didn't mind. After all, wasn't that obvious? Strictly speaking, she was stealing the fruits of others' labor.
Therefore, Ruiye was not surprised at all by this situation.
However, she herself had a few doubts about how she obtained power in this way.
"Onii-chan, if I gain power like this, won't I lose control or something? After all, I don't know how to use any power at all."
Ruiye had a clear understanding of her own situation. She was just a novice and didn't know how to use strength or anything like that. What she was doing now was just basic training. What if she lost control? After all, the domineering aura that the other party had told her about must have included the whole set, especially the Conqueror's Haki.
Is it really a good thing for a complete newbie like me to have something like 05?
Ruiye was no idiot; on the contrary, she knew very well that if an ordinary person like herself had that power and couldn't control it, the entire school would probably be in trouble.
Therefore, I need to find out the details first. If something unexpected happens, I'd rather not risk this force.
After hearing this, Lin Qi pinched the other person's cheek and found that it still felt just as good.
"Don't worry, trust me, I definitely won't let such an accident happen. After all, I'm the most meticulous person when it comes to this kind of thing."
“I definitely won’t let that happen. After all, if it does, you’ll be completely uneasy. How could I allow that? So trust me, I’m absolutely sure there won’t be any problems.”
Lin Qi's words reassured the other party.
"Oh well."
"Thank you for your help, Onii-chan."
Ruiye didn't hold back at all, choosing not to refuse, after all, this young girl knew very well that there was no need to refuse such a thing.
Things are different now that I'm with this person. Before, I could say I didn't care about these things, but not now. This person has no intention of being an ordinary person anymore, and based on my understanding, I know that this person is very, very powerful now.
Since I can't be an ordinary person, I must also acquire power. I don't ask to help the other party, I just ask not to hold them back.
Ruiye had always thought this way in her heart. From childhood to adulthood, she had always wanted to stay with him, take good care of him, and not hold him back.
When Lin Qi wanted to help, he suddenly paused and entered a state of thought.
Ruiye noticed the man's troubles and became curious as well.
"Onii-chan, is there something so difficult?"
Lin Qi did not hide anything from this and nodded frankly.
"I did think of something, and I was thinking of helping you with that. How about we help Sagiri with that too?"
"After all, if I helped you but not her, and that guy finds out, he'll definitely make a huge fuss. You should know that."
"Not to mention, the chances of you being exposed when you exercise together are very high. Besides, the other person stays at home all day and reads a lot of comics and novels, so they will definitely recognize you at a glance."
At that moment, Lin Qi spoke a very honest truth, to a certain caring younger sister. Upon hearing this, her first thought was, "Why not just transplant them all at once? Is it because there aren't enough transplants?"
However, that thought was quickly dismissed, and a second thought emerged.
It's highly likely that the concern stems from the worry that the other party is not mature enough and might misbehave with this power, causing serious trouble. After all, this best fits the current situation.
Ruiye thought about how the other person pouted and acted sullenly, and after thinking it over, she realized that the probability of him causing some trouble seemed to be very high. So, the person in front of her was not without reason.
