one piece: gene extraction and fusion system Chapter 390: Special Draw – Creatures from Other Worlds

Compared to more than a decade ago, Robin had matured completely. She now possessed the beautiful face and alluring figure seen in the original story two years later.

Robin, wearing glasses and with her long black hair cascading over her shoulders, turned and leaned against the sofa to gaze at Mio, the anticipation for the historical text plain in her eyes.

"Although the Poneglyphs record news from eight hundred years ago, for us, much of that information isn’t very useful," Mio said as he sat beside Robin with a faint smile. "But I hope this ti there’s sothing valuable—preferably connected to the World Governnt."

"Then, Captain, don’t get your hopes up too much," Robin replied with a hint of helplessness. "I suspect many Poneglyphs were altered. Perhaps only Roger truly knew their original contents and could hear what was recorded before the modifications. The current ones likely reflect only what the World Governnt wants us to see—excluding the Road Poneglyphs."

Over the years, as a mber of the Black Crow Pirates, Robin’s perspective had broadened. She had gained insights inaccessible to most people, and she now understood the terrifying capabilities of the World Governnt.

Three years ago, when the Linglong Newspaper uncovered a Poneglyph in the first half of the Grand Line, Robin discovered evidence of alteration. Originally, it had recorded sothing connected to Im. After the modifications, what it once contained beca a mystery.

That revelation had shattered her trust in the Poneglyphs’ accuracy. It seed the World Governnt began altering them after O’Hara’s destruction, realizing too late their significance. Who could say how many had already been tampered with?

"After the Poneglyph is dealt with, I’ll be leaving the New World for a while," Mio said, turning to Robin. "I’ll stop by Sky Island and then head to the first half of the Grand Line. Do you want to co with ?"

Robin rubbed her face thoughtfully. "The first half of the Grand Line?" she murmured before nodding. "Alright. It’s been a long ti since I traveled outside."

"Good. Let’s prepare. It might be a while before we return," Mio said with a faint grin.

He intended to spend significant ti on Sky Island. The forbidden surgery, according to Renee’s information, would require a full week.

The ultimate surgery. Eternal life.

The thought alone ignited a fire in Mio’s heart.

Shaking his head, he rose, grinning broadly, and left the castle. Before departing, he decided to relax and enjoy himself.

After all, if things went awry during the coming events—the sa ones foreshadowed in the original tiline—this might be his final chance to indulge.

But suddenly, Mio took a step and vanished, reappearing in a secured chamber.

This room stored Devil Fruits. Row upon row of shelves displayed an astonishing number of them, their bizarre shapes and colors shining under the dim light.

A total of 107 Devil Fruits.

Don’t underestimate that number; in reality, gathering so many was an impressive feat. As ti passed and more people sought Devil Fruits to gain power, they had beco increasingly rare.

Taking a deep breath, Mio focused his mind. Instantly, the Devil Fruits disappeared, converted into draw chances.

[You have 107 draw chances.]

Then, a panel appeared before Mio.

[Your number of draws has exceeded the maximum limit. Limited-Ti Special Draw is now available!]

[Limited-Ti Special Draw: Consu 10 draw chances per attempt to obtain creatures from all realms and worlds. (Humans excluded)]

[Creatures obtained may be directly cultivated!]

Mio blinked, stunned, and then his lips curled into an intrigued smile.

"A special draw? And it’s limited-ti?"

After pondering for a mont, Mio had a realization.

"Every ti I exceed 100 draws, this function activates, huh?"

Each special draw consud ten Devil Fruits—a steep price. With his current count, he could attempt it ten tis.

But when the special draw roulette appeared, the list of potential prizes made Mio’s heart pound.

[Godzilla!]

[Two-Tailed Beast!]

[Simba the Lion King!]

[Void Predator Kha’Zix!]

[King Minto Sauta!]

[Zombie Hound!]

Creatures from countless worlds, each one capable of trendous power if nurtured.

"Let’s draw once," Mio murmured.

The roulette wheel spun faster and faster before gradually slowing. The pointer settled on a prize.

[Congratulations! You have drawn: Manda the Giant Snake!]

"Manda...?"

Mio’s eyes narrowed slightly, a flicker of disappointnt crossing his face.

"Why did I get this guy?"

Manda, from the Naruto world, was Orochimaru’s massive summoning snake. Despite its size and durable body, it lacked the extraordinary abilities Mio sought. Among the roulette’s rewards, Manda was clearly on the weaker side.

"Tch. A waste of ten Devil Fruits," Mio muttered before sighing. "Still, it’s better than nothing. I can cultivate him and see."

[You have obtained ’Manda.’ Current environnt too small to summon. Relocate to an open area.]

With a single step, Mio left the chamber and appeared in a forest clearing on Crow Island.

With a thought, he summoned Manda.

The earth trembled. Dust clouds billowed as a massive, purple-scaled snake uncoiled, its enormous body dominating the area. Its golden eyes glinted as it lowered its head toward Mio.

"Hisss..."

Mio leapt lightly onto Manda’s head and sat cross-legged.

"This body has potential. With the right genes, I could mold you into a fearso force," Mio murmured.

But he wasn’t done yet.

The special roulette materialized again.

"This function only lasts a day. After today, I’ll need to stockpile 100 draws again to reactivate it. Might as well make the most of it."

Eyes glittering, Mio whispered:

"Four draws."

The roulette wheel spun wildly before slowing to reveal his prizes:

[Congratulations! You have drawn: Rengar!]

[Congratulations! You have drawn: Three-Tailed Fox!]

[Congratulations! You have drawn: Twin-Horned Deep Scarlet!]

[Congratulations! You have drawn: Zunesha the Elephant Lord!]

"???"

Mio’s eyes went wide in shock.

"Zunesha... isn’t that the elephant from Zou?!"

[Yes and no. All special draw rewards are clones of their original forms with no difference in power.]

"Ah, so that’s how it works," Mio muttered, exhaling in relief.

He had feared this was the real Zunesha, aning Zou would have been left stranded.

This draw more than satisfied Mio.

Rengar, the hunter from League of Legends, was a powerful predator with unmatched combat skills. Given ti and training, he could easily reach Admiral-level strength.

The Three-Tailed Fox, a mystical creature from Onmyoji, possessed spiritual powers far beyond ordinary beasts.

Twin-Horned Deep Scarlet, from Bloodthirster, boasted a vibration ability similar to the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

And finally, Zunesha.

A creature of incomprehensible size and strength. If Mio could cultivate it into a humanoid form, its destructive potential might even rival ancient weapons.

"Not bad at all."

As Mio gazed at the towering Manda in front of him, the forest seed to fall silent in awe.

Suddenly, Bai Feng arrived, clearly drawn by the noise.

"My lord, what’s going on here?" he asked.

"Nothing important," Mio said, waving his hand. "Just instruct the others to avoid this area for now."

"Yes, my lord." Bai Feng bowed respectfully and departed.

"Good... now let’s continue." Mio smirked, eyes gleaming with anticipation as the roulette reappeared.
