Chapter 342: 343: Commission From the Underworld
This is this his soul?
Ian looked at the light mass in his hand with surprise. It felt so magical.
Thats right! Although Ian can now use so superhuman powers, whether it was fire, lightning, or space, it doesnt exceed Ians cognitive range, so he thinks its normal, however, this is still his first ti seeing the so-called soul!
Its not just him, but most people have never seen how the soul looks like
Ian seed surprised, which made Crocodile get frightened. The mont Ians hand entered his body, he was wondering why he was not injured. As a result, Crocodile felt as if he had lost sothing important when Ian pulled his hand out, and a strong sense of emptiness and weakness suddenly struck him.
His intuition told him that this light group mass is an extrely important thing!
Youwhat did you do to !? Crocodile glared at his chest, groping up and down, but he didnt find a wound.
After that, Ian ca back to his senses when he saw Crocodiles reacting, turned his gaze from the ball of light, and looked towards Crocodile.
Ian knows very well that the reason why Orochis card consus a large amount of Nen, is because all his skills were high-tier abilities, whether it is the Space Shield, or the Soul Ripper. But their special effect requires a lot of Nen, especially the Space Shield, the power of this trick is not as strong as Ian imagined.
This is not only due to the Nen simulation, but also because Orochis card is inherently imperfect. Just imagine if Ian can cause a wide range of Space collapse, then he can easily destroy a country, not just as simple as injuring Crocodile, and making him spit blood.
Therefore, the ordinary skills of Orochi are not extrely powerful, but what really matters about this card is that it gave a special ability to Ian, that is, soul destruction!
In Ians impression, there are only two people in this World who can tamper with soul stuff. One is the skeleton Brook, who is estimated to be wandering in the fog of the Devils Triangle, and the other is the Yonko Bigmom!
Now, with the help of Orochis card, Ian has put his hand on the power of the soul, although at present, it is only limited to the scope of ingestion and destruction, it is indeed a big deal.
Holding the piece of his life force, Ian smiled at Crocodile lightly and said, Are you curious about what I grabbed from your body?
Crocodile looked at Ian, gnashing his teeth, didnt talk, and waited for his answer.
As a result, Ian gently tossed the orb in his hand high and then caught it again. This is a chunk of your soul! a large amount of your vitality! What do you think would happen if I crush it!?
Upon hearing this, Crocodiles eyes were opened wide, a chunk of my soul!?
Im damned! He finally knew why he had a feeling of losing sothing important after the orb left his body!
No This is impossible! Crocodile said with so disbelief: How could you have the ability to interact with soul? As far as I know, the only person who can manipulate human souls in this world is the Bigmom!
Crocodile has tried his luck in the New World a couple of years ago, so he naturally knew about the Bigmoms capability, so he doesnt believe that Ian also has the ability to tamper with souls.
In fact, hes half right. Ian really cant control others souls. At least Ian cant absorb life force or use it for other purposes. Bigmoms soul-soul fruit can absorb the soul of living creatures, and then put it in non-living objects, giving them personality and the ability to move, while Ian can only destroy it.
Do you want to gamble? Ian didnt bother, looking at Crocodile with a smile, he held the light ball tightly in his hand. As soon as Crocodile takes the dare, he will imdiately crush the orb.
Crocodile went silent, how can he gamble with such a thing?
According to Ian, this is 10% of his soul, which ans that it is equal to one-tenth of his lifespan. If Crocodile can live to eighty years old, this light group represents eight years of his lifespan. So if Ian pops the orb in his hand, it will cost sir Crocodile a lot!
In the distance, Robin was very shocked. She produced an ear in the back of Ian by using the power of her fruit, and heard the conversation between the two. The light mass in Ians hand, she did not expect it to be a part of Crocodiles soul.
This what exactly is this kind of Ability!?
What do you want? Crocodile asked Ian gnashing his teeth, with a strong reluctance in his tone.
He found that he really couldnt deal with Ian, Ians endless skills have overwheld his Logia capabilities, and now a part of his soul is in the hands of Ian, therefore he can only subject to Ian.
However, listening to his question, Ian was also a little bit troubled Yup, what does he want to do with Crocodile?
Just kill him? It seems that sothing isnt quite right. Although he has stolen one-tenth of his soul, even if he smashes this light mass, he still wont kill Crocodile. At most, he will once again deal serious damage to him. Crocodile is in his early 40s, and 10% of his life force wont end his journey.
Besides, what is the benefit of killing Crocodile now? I am already a Shichibukai, and I dont have a candidate to replace him. Moreover, Shichibukais can turn hostile among each other, but they cant fight so If I kill Crocodile myself, I am afraid the World Governnt will find its reason to revoke my rank.
To put it bluntly, killing Crocodile has no aning for now.
Ian had a headache about how to deal with this matter. He felt that it doesnt seem cost-effective to coerce Crocodile and take Nico Robin away. So after thinking about it, Ian said: Alright, Im not going to destroy your soul, but whats your bargaining chip, what are you willing to exchange for it?
This is equivalent to throwing the problem/question back to Crocodile. If he wants to retrieve his soul, Crocodile must co up with sothing equivalent.
He was aware of this, took a look at Nico Robins location, and hesitated.
What Ian took is a part of his soul. If Crocodile was crazy enough, he wouldve ignored it. In this case, he wont be threatened by Ian, but Crocodile didnt dare to gamble with this matter. Since Ian could take a chunk of his soul, who can guarantee that he wouldnt take more!?
So thinking about it, Crocodile had to say: Nico Robin, you can take her away!
Not enough! Ian shook his head.
Crocodile took a deep breath and said, Huh, well then, let
add a piece of information!!?
What do you got? Ian was sowhat confused.
Crocodile laughed. The scar across his face looked very ferocious. He pulled out a cigar and bit it. After lighting it, he said confidently: A ssage that has been spreading around and you absolutely need to know!
Keep talking! Ian looked at him for a while and said: If I think its too important, then we have reached a deal.
Just a few days ago Hmm, days before you arrived in Alubarna, I got a ssage from the Underground World! Crocodile said: Its an employnt commission, soone from the Underground World has released a task for a high amount of money!
Im listening! Ian nodded.
The amount entrusted is up to 10 billion Berries! Crocodile sneered: And the content of the mission is to attack an island, and the report indicated that hired soldiers must kill all the people on the island!
Ian felt that sothing was wrong, and asked: What do you an!?
What do I an!? Dont you get it? Crocodile laughed wildly: The na of that island is Travolta Its the island where your pirate group, the Dragon Hunters are located!
