Magellan possesses the Paracia-type Venom-Venom Fruit.
Toxins are incredibly powerful on the seas. Many strong individuals have high physical resistance but are still vulnerable to poison.
"Reiju."
Kuke held the Venom-Venom Fruit, freshly plundered from Magellan's body.
He called out to Reiju, one of his crew mbers.
She was the most suitable candidate for the Venom-Venom Fruit—not just among the crew, but in the entire world. No one was more suited than Reiju.
In fact, Reiju was even more compatible with the Venom-Venom Fruit than Magellan himself.
Magellan suffered daily from the potent toxins of his own fruit, which even his body couldn't fully withstand.
Reiju, on the other hand, possessed a unique immunity to toxins.
"Captain, if I eat the Venom-Venom Fruit, will people still dare to get close to ?" Reiju asked, both excited and worried.
"If that happens, I'll help you," Kuke assured her.
With Kuke's current physical resilience, no toxin could affect him.
"Thank you, Captain." Reiju, satisfied with her plan, happily ate the Venom-Venom Fruit.
Becoming a Devil Fruit user, her combat power imdiately surged by 30,000 to 40,000, reaching a total of around 60,000. This was just the initial boost from becoming a Devil Fruit user; there was still a long period of growth ahead.
Magellan was dead.
With him gone, Impel Down could no longer mount any effective resistance.
Soon, Kuke and the won made their way to Level 6, the Eternal Hell.
This level housed the most vicious monsters of the seas.
"A group of won has arrived."
"Did Magellan suddenly do sothing good and send these won here...?"
"They're all mine."
The lawless criminals in their cells grinned with cruel and evil smiles.
"Looking to die?" Charlotte Linlin and the others' faces turned cold as they unleashed their powerful auras.
The prisoners who had been leaning against the iron doors turned pale and fell to their knees.
The pirates who had spoken rudely were instantly killed by Charlotte Linlin, who drained their lifespans with her ability.
Even the most brutal criminals couldn't stand tall in front of Gion and the others.
A powerful Conqueror's Haki, strong enough to shake the ground, filled the entire Eternal Hell.
A few prisoners slowly opened their eyes.
A cold glint flashed in their eyes.
"So real monsters have arrived."
Bartoloo looked up, staring into the darkness outside.
Kuke happened to stop outside his cell.
Bartoloo didn't recognize him.
"You seem strong," Bartoloo said, baring his sharp teeth in excitent as he stared at Kuke.
"That little monster from Roger's crew, the Devil's Successor... Bartoloo," Charlotte Linlin remarked.
Bartoloo glanced dismissively at Charlotte Linlin.
But his pupils froze.
He felt an imnse pressure.
Seeing Gion and the others, Bartoloo's arrogant expression completely stiffened.
"When did the seas produce so many monsters?" Bartoloo muttered in disbelief.
He had only been imprisoned for a little over a decade. How had so many powerful won appeared that he didn't recognize?
And the man who had gathered these won—how terrifying must he be?
Bartoloo's gaze settled on Kuke.
"You seem like an impressive man. Are you here to recruit ? Unfortunately, I don't even respect Roger anymore, let alone..."
Kuke didn't bother wasting words on Bartoloo.
He reached out, aiming his hand at Bartoloo through the iron bars.
The powerful gravitational pull of the Dark-Dark Fruit, enhanced by Kuke's limitless physical strength, acted like a true black hole. No one could resist or escape its pull.
"This power... impossible!" Bartoloo's face turned pale as he was forcibly dragged forward.
The Eternal Hell fell into dead silence.
The once-arrogant criminals now trembled in fear.
In a short amount of ti, Kuke had stripped all the Devil Fruit users in the Eternal Hell of their abilities. None could resist.
Even at their peak, they wouldn't have stood a chance, let alone in their current imprisoned state.
Kuke stood before a pile of Devil Fruits.
Yamato quickly gathered them all into a sack.
Everything had been done with such ease.
"By the way, there's also a hidden section on Level 5."
Half an hour later, the infamous Impel Down had been thoroughly explored by the Sun and Moon Pirates.
Shakky gathered over 70 prisoners at the entrance.
All of them were Devil Fruit users.
Another half hour later, the deck of the Sun and Moon Ship was filled with 80 Devil Fruits. Combined with the ship's previous stock, the total number of Devil Fruits on board had surpassed 100.
This was the largest collection of Devil Fruits in the world.
And this didn't even include the abilities already possessed by the crew mbers.
"Goodbye, handso Kuke," Ivankov said, reluctantly waving as they commandeered a Marine ship and sailed away.
Ivankov and the Okama were now free.
But they left behind the Paracia-type Horm-Horm Fruit.
"Alright, everyone, choose whatever ability you want," Kuke said, addressing the won.
They were overwheld by the sight.
None of them had ever seen so many Devil Fruits in one place.
These were the legendary treasures of the seas.
Even the weakest abilities were worth over 100 million berries, yet here they were, scattered across the deck like ordinary fruit.
Among the 100 Devil Fruits, most were average abilities.
But there were also several top-tier fruits.
Five of them were Mythical Zoans:
Mythical Zoan - Azure Dragon Form
Mythical Zoan - Eight-Headed Serpent Form
Mythical Zoan - Giant Monk Form
Mythical Zoan - Sea Dragon Form
Mythical Zoan - Nine-Tailed Fox Form
The Nine-Tailed Fox Form had been obtained from Impel Down.
The Eight-Headed Serpent Form and Giant Monk Form were acquired in Wano Country.
The Azure Dragon Form was Kaido's ability.
The Sea Dragon Form was a na Kuke had given to the artificial Devil Fruit that Momonosuke had accidentally eaten in the original story. It was found in the abandoned World Governnt research facility, Punk Hazard.
In addition to the five Mythical Zoans, there were two Logia-type fruits:
Logia - Gas-Gas Fruit (forrly Caesar Clown's ability)
Logia - Earth-Earth Fruit (forrly held by Avalo Pizarro)
There were also three top-tier Paracia fruits:
Paracia - rge-rge Fruit
Paracia - Moa-Moa Fruit
Paracia - Horm-Horm Fruit
The rge-rge Fruit and Moa-Moa Fruit had once belonged to legendary figures who required the combined efforts of Garp and Sengoku to capture.
The Horm-Horm Fruit was particularly useful, especially on the Sun and Moon Pirates' ship. Its applications were more versatile than many other Devil Fruits.
"With my current strength, I don't need to turn n into won to boost our power. But in the future, that might change," Kuke thought.
He also harbored a major secret, known to no one else.
Once his achievent points surpassed one million, in addition to being able to use resurrection and other abilities without limit, he would gain another power.
The ability to open a black hole—a true portal to another world.
After gaining this ability, Kuke had spent two to three years transforming an entire island.
He planned to bring the island, along with several giant sea kings and surrounding waters, across worlds. This would be the most shocking arrival in the new world.
Such an entrance would harvest a massive amount of achievent points and make it easy to recruit the won of the new world.
What was the new world?
The system offered several worlds to choose from, including familiar ones like Naruto and Genshin Impact.
"First, I'll deal with the One Piece world. Then I'll consider the rest," Kuke thought.
For now, he needed to focus on distributing the Devil Fruits to his crew, enhancing their strength. Then, they would head to Marineford to give Akainu a "gift"—and send him on his way.
