"Boy Mundo, you’re always welco on Fishman Island!"
Whitebeard’s booming voice carried across the sea.
Fishman Island was now firmly his territory.
Fenric smiled and nodded. "Old Man, I’ll definitely visit. But take care of yourself—I don’t want to hear news of your death."
"Gura ra ra ra! Don’t worry, brat. Who knows, maybe I’ll outlive you yet."
Ace leaned in with a grin. "Senior Mundo, one day, I’ll surpass you!"
Fenric laughed heartily. "Then I’ll be waiting, Ace."
Soon after, Fenric stood on the deck of the Nine Snakes Pirates’ ship, waving farewell to Whitebeard and his crew.
With the great pirate gone, his mission ti was nearly at an end.
By his side, the Empress gazed at him with unmistakable affection. Fenric noticed—how could he not?—but he had no ti for romance. When the mission ended, he would be pulled from this world. Who knew when, or if, he would return?
"Hancock," he said softly, "I have to leave. Take your sisters and return soon. I’ll visit Amazon Lily in the future."
"Yes, Lord Mundo," Hancock replied, her eyes unwavering. "This Empress will be waiting."
After parting with her, Fenric watched the Nine Snakes’ ship vanish over the horizon. He whispered to himself:
"System, send back."
In the next instant, his figure disappeared from the sea.
Ding—!
A chanical voice echoed in the vast Samsara Space:
"Congratulations, Samsara Player ’Shura.’ In the second-stage dungeon world One Piece of the Samsara Tower, your performance was extraordinary. You killed Admiral Akainu, raised your bounty to five billion berries, and achieved a perfect evaluation: SSS—Super God!"
The announcent shook the entire space.
Though veterans had grown used to hearing Fenric’s "Super God" evaluations, this was different. This dungeon was the most important yet—and he had still reached the peak!
"Holy sh*t! He got Super God on the One Piece second stage? Unreal!"
"Akainu... was killed? Wait, wasn’t Sengoku supposed to be fleet admiral? When did Akainu take the position?"
"Must be the butterfly effect from Shura’s first stage! But damn, five billion bounty? That’s higher than even the Four Emperors!"
"This dungeon always rewards Devil Fruits. Shura’s reward this ti is gonna be insane!"
"Definitely a top-tier fruit. Maybe even a legendary logia!"
"Envy doesn’t even begin to cover it. Who else could kill Akainu at this stage? No one but Shura."
"Quick, check the global leaderboard! If he eats that fruit, his ranking will skyrocket!"
The Samsaras buzzed with excitent. They all knew how terrifying Akainu was—if brought into the real world, his power would easily rank in the top ten. That Shura had killed him proved just how monstrous his strength had beco.
But what gripped them even more was the fruit Shura was about to receive.
—--
anwhile, Fenric’s system prompt appeared:
"Dear Samsara Player ’Shura,’ you have completed your mission. Rewards as follows:
Samsara Points: 60,000
Strength: 35 (added)
Devil Fruit Treasure Box ×1 (stored in personal warehouse)
Golden Treasure Box ×1 (stored in personal warehouse)"
Fenric smiled faintly and imdiately entered his personal warehouse.
But as he appeared inside, his expression darkened.
There, holding two treasure boxes and poking at them curiously, was the tiny Skynet Loli.
"...What are you doing? Put those down!" Fenric barked.
The girl blinked up at him innocently. "Master, these boxes just appeared out of nowhere. They’re fascinating!"
Fenric’s forehead twitched. Keeping a living being inside his warehouse was clearly a mistake. He made a ntal note: once he secured his position in the real world, he’d let her live outside instead of here.
"Hand them over."
"Oh..." The little loli pouted but obediently passed him the boxes.
Ignoring her, Fenric focused on the prizes. Two chests—one gleaming gold, the other a dark red patterned with eerie hues. The choice was obvious.
He opened the Devil Fruit Treasure Box first.
A crisp chi rang:
"Congratulations! You have obtained the Devil Fruit: Paracia—Gura Gura no Mi(Tremor-Tremor Fruit)!"
Inside lay a pure white fruit, etched with swirling patterns.
"!!"
Fenric’s eyes widened, then a grin spread across his face.
"The Gura Gura no Mi... the strongest Paracia!"
His joy was impossible to hide. This was the fruit that had made Whitebeard the "Strongest Man in the World." To receive it as a reward... the system’s judgnt truly lived up to its na.
Skynet tilted her head curiously. "Master, what kind of fruit is that? It looks so strange! Can I study it?"
"Don’t ask so much, little one." Fenric brushed her off, lifting the fruit in his hands.
Another system prompt appeared:
"Paracia—Quake-Quake Fruit (Modified).
Grants the power to generate destructive vibrations at will, vastly enhancing physical damage and enabling the creation of earthquakes and tsunamis. With mastery, this ability may shatter even space itself.
Note: System modification removes weakness to seawater."
Fenric laughed quietly, the smile on his lips unshakable.
"The strongest fruit... and without weakness. Perfect."
