Chapter 530: Special Mission: God’s Body
From the mont Lilith’s projection first appeared and took form, Ryuunosuke had already drawn one conclusion.
This projection had to share so connection with the Uranus.
Now that Lilith’s remnant soul had completely burrowed into Roy’s body, there was no point in thinking about the Uranus any further.
The imdiate problem ca first.
"How could you be so ruthless to your own comrade?"
"Child, your anger..."
Boom.
Ryuunosuke’s attacks gave "Roy" no room to breathe.
More importantly, he no longer viewed the soul inside that body as Roy at all.
It was Lilith’s projection.
"Universal Pull."
His Rinnegan spun, rings whirling as gravity inverted.
Roy’s body shot toward him as if pulled by an invisible hand.
In the sa motion, Ryuunosuke activated the power of the Hell Path. A strange energy surged into his palm.
Puff.
He caught Roy by the throat.
"Just a projection."
"Cut."
He spat out the word, fingers digging in.
A clump of gray black sludge was ripped out of Roy’s body, as if Ryuunosuke had reached into his soul and torn sothing loose.
The instant it appeared, the mass radiated a corrosive aura that locked onto Ryuunosuke and tried to seep into him.
"Oh?"
"You really dared to co into my body?"
"In that case, be my guest."
He did not dodge at all.
He simply dropped his defenses and let the power rush into him.
Just like before, the mont that power entered his body, it lunged straight for his mind.
"This is..."
"Impossible... how can a human endure such a thing?"
"No...!"
The scream echoed only inside his skull.
Ryuunosuke imdiately knew what had happened.
Another unfortunate soul had gone to challenge the system, and the system had given it a lesson.
He slowly exhaled, a long breath of turbid air leaving his lungs.
The shattered remnant soul, crushed by the system, was converted into pure energy and poured back into his body.
"Ding. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Spirit of God."
"Ding. Congratulations, host, you have simultaneously mastered the Na of God and the Spirit of God."
"Special mission issued: Obtain the Body of God."
[Quest complete. Rewards: 100000 reputation points, 1 random Eternal Heart Gift Box, and coordinates of the Eternal Gate.]
As the notification chid, Ryuunosuke blinked.
If it had just been reputation, he could have understood easily enough.
He had destroyed a Lilith projection. To those who believed in her, that was no different from having their faith shattered. Their belief would naturally be converted into reputation points.
But the Spirit of God?
The Na of God?
Just what were those supposed to be?
Ryuunosuke opened his status panel.
On the very first line, there was a new change.
[Host: Ryuunosuke {Joy Boy}]
That must be the so called Na of God that the notification had ntioned.
So then, what exactly was this Body of God the mission wanted him to obtain?
"System, can you give a clear direction?"
Ryuunosuke rubbed his forehead, a little helpless.
He had no clue where to even start with sothing that sounded this ridiculous.
"Cannot."
The system’s reply was as arrogant and blunt as ever.
"Uh..."
"Fine."
He sighed again.
The main problem was that the reward this ti was truly attractive.
Not only were there the coordinates of the Eternal Gate, there was also a random Eternal Heart Gift Box.
That item could grant him an Eternal Heart he had not yet collected.
At present, Ryuunosuke had three Eternal Hearts.
Which ant he still lacked two.
One of them was very likely sowhere on Laugh Tale, near the ruins of the Great Kingdom where the crystal had once fallen.
"Thank you, Captain Ryuunosuke."
Roy stumbled over to his side, still pale.
If Ryuunosuke had not ripped the projection out when he did, Roy knew exactly what would have happened.
He would have beco nothing more than Lilith’s puppet.
"We are allies. No need for thanks."
"Go back to the ship and rest."
"I still have so things to settle here."
Ryuunosuke gave him a small wave and vanished.
Roy’s expression turned complicated as he walked slowly back toward the Ark of Eternity.
Seeing Imu being guarded by the others, that feeling only deepened.
...
At the sa ti, Ryuunosuke appeared once more on Whitebeard’s ship.
Ace was sitting on the deck, chugging life essence like it was juice.
"Hey, that is enough."
"This is not so everyday health drink. Can your body handle that much?"
Ryuunosuke could not help complaining as he walked over.
"Big brother, you went too far this ti."
"If you had not tossed so much life essence at afterward, I really thought I was done for."
Ace shot him a resentful look.
Just now, even though he had said he trusted Ryuunosuke, no one could have expected his older brother to stab him the very next second.
And it was not so light wound either.
He had gone straight for a kill blow.
If not for the heap of life essence Ryuunosuke had hurled into his arms on the way out, Ace would have thought his brother ant to send him to the other side.
"So... there should not be any problems with your body now, right?"
Ryuunosuke scratched his head, vaguely embarrassed.
"No problem."
"In fact, I feel even stronger."
"Big brother, what was that all about?"
Ace did not forget the important part as he answered.
If soone stabbed you through the chest out of nowhere, you were going to want an explanation.
"You should be pretty familiar with that power from just now."
"That extra thing inside you was a present from that woman."
"Oh, right. Go wait in there for a bit."
"We will talk about any problems after you co out."
Ryuunosuke pointed at the Pure Yang Fla still burning nearby.
He really had gone all out to force Lilith’s projection out from within the island.
That Pure Yang Fla Experience Card had been his last one.
"That... big brother, the temperature of that fire, is it..."
"Bang."
"Talk less."
Before Ace could finish, Ryuunosuke’s foot had already sunk into his stomach, sending him flying straight toward the sea of flas.
The Fla Fla Fruit needed fire like this to temper itself.
With the fierce nature of Pure Yang Fla, it would be an excellent forge for Ace’s future power.
"Big brother, if I were not weaker than you right now, I would really beat you up!"
Ace’s last yell was swallowed by the blaze as he fell into the raging fire.
The Whitebeard Pirates all took an involuntary step back.
They were not Ace.
If Ryuunosuke suddenly decided they also needed a training session and kicked them into that fire, they were very sure their bodies would not hold up.
"Uncle Whitebeard, let us just wait here for Ace to finish."
"That kid will be fine."
"Uncle with the white beard, there is sothing I want to ask you."
Ryuunosuke turned to Whitebeard with a smile.
"Ryuunosuke, if there is sothing you want to know, just ask."
"I will tell you everything I know."
Whitebeard’s voice was calm, his gaze steady.
From what he had seen just now, from Ryuunosuke’s actions and his treatnt of the Whitebeard Pirates, Whitebeard understood very clearly.
This man bore no resentnt toward them.
If Ryuunosuke had held even a shred of malice in his heart, he would never have acted this way.
Whether out of guilt for their past clash, or out of genuine affection for this younger man, Whitebeard had already made up his mind.
Whatever Ryuunosuke wanted to know, he would answer.
