"Ah, I see."
While the fourth Masa was surprised when he suddenly appeared in this white space, he quickly understood everything even before all of them explained anything to him.
Like any protagonists of reincarnation or transmigration stories, all of them had a certain cheat that allowed them to grow better than others, and this was their abilities that made them able to share and combine.
Yes, as the fourth Masa appeared, as expected, their appearance, intelligence, talents, and everything became four times stronger.
At the same time, like in the video game where they could get a bonus heart, this time, as the fourth Masa appeared, their lives were guaranteed since the more Masa appeared, the harder it was for them to be killed since as long as any of them lived, they would continue to be revived.
Nevertheless, with this, the worry of Masa of One Piece was cleared up, and there was no need for him to worry about implementing his plan as he arrived at Water 7, so there was no doubt those who liked Rob Lucci had to say sorry to them since his plan didn't change and he planned to devour the strongest agent in the history of the World Government.
Still, Masa from Mahouka had no problems and had the smoothest life since he just focused on studying various things and making money. He asked the question that everyone was most cornered about.
"Which world did you come from?"
Naturally, Masa from Mahouka introduced everyone first, telling the new Masa about everything in this ability, then lastly asked which world this new Masa came from.
"....."
The new Masa appeared to be in a daze since he didn't expect that all of them came from superpowers, supernatural, magic, and sci-fi-related works, which made him speechless.
"Sorry that I have to disappoint you, but I have come from a normal world, without magic, future technology, supernatural creatures, and many others."
Yet, when he thought that all of them were disappointed—
"That's great!" 3x
".....'
The new Masa was in a daze for a while, but as his intelligence also became four times stronger, he also understood why they were all happy.
"You don't have to worry. There should be a story about your worlds in my world, and I also often read and watch otaku-related works."
"Oh, you are not an otaku?"
After all, the new Masa appeared young like them, and based on their cognition, there was no doubt the new Masa would be a student, so shouldn't he just spend his time enjoying youth by watching anime and reading manga or novels?
The new Masa only smiled and said calmly, like a mature man who had been toyed with by society, "I am an orphan, after all, and I don't have much money, especially when I also have to help my older sister since her job isn't stable."
"I see." 3x
Similar to Masa from One Piece, this new Masa didn't seem to have a good background.
Still, the new Masa was no longer alone, and the three of them patted his back softly.
Nevertheless, the new Masa also realized that his life wasn't that bad, especially when there were many who were worse than him.
Rather, while some Masa might have a great family background, they had their own problems, and their problems were so huge that he, the new Masa, knew that their problems weren't something that he, an ordinary guy, could do anything about.
Heck, he even felt that their future was doomed, he thought.
Masa of One Piece probably might get entangled in various problems from the original protagonists, powerful pirates, the Marines, and even the World Government.
Masa of Mahouka had to change the status quo of magicians in a world where the majority of the people were normal humans.
Masa of DxD had to fight against the singularity known as Issei Hyodou.
On the other hand, Masa's new problem was simple; he was born in Japan as an ordinary guy who was simply in poverty.
Yes, this was his problem.
He had no stable income, no parents, and, more importantly, he was a student, which meant he was a minor.
More importantly, his older sister, who was his only family, didn't have a stable income due to her job.
Well, it wasn't like they were troubled by money since they still had money from the insurance from their deceased parents.
Moreover, as long as he grew into an adult, everything would be okay since the money from insurance from his deceased parents should allow him to go to the university without any problems and then get a stable job.
Yes, this was his only problem, but even so, due to a certain accident that his older sister got, their money was at the limit, and they lived day by day by consuming the savings from the insurance compensation.
Fortunately, like any Masa, his appearance was good, and he had a good mind, so his life wasn't bad, especially when there were many kind ladies who wanted to help him.
Naturally, he wouldn't touch them since if he did, his older sister would kill him.
Nevertheless, he understood his role, the role that everyone wished him to be.
The new Masa didn't have to fight, nor did he have to do anything.
After all, just by relying on the memories and abilities of the three Masa, there was no doubt that they could live well, especially in this world where everyone was just a normal human.
Yes, as a normal human, he couldn't give much support, especially when he was living in 2012, which was a backward world compared to the world of Mahouka.
Well, the world of One Piece might also be backward, but there was a lot of unique knowledge, powers, and unique things, but there was nothing in the world of New Masa.
Yet, it didn't matter since the new Masa could help them to read their respective stories of where the rest of Masa lived.
The new Masa knew his role well, yet was that the only thing that he could do?
If it was before, the new Masa might say so, but after half a year, everything started to change for him.
"...don't tell me you have a cheat like those protagonists that are reincarnated in Japan?"
Yes, similar to any protagonists that were reincarnated into the new world, the new Masa also had a unique ability.
"Yup."
"What is it?" 3x
The three of them were surprised and quickly asked curiously, wondering what kind of ability the new Masa had.
However, considering that the new Masa was reincarnated in normal Japan, his ability should be like those romance stories where he gets rewards by dating girls, right?
"No, my ability isn't like that. Even if I date girls, women, or heroines, I won't get anything, okay?"
"Wait! Wait! There are heroines in your world?"
"It should be the case." The new Masa nodded. "I forgot before, but as I got your memories, I remembered all of them."
"....." 3x
This guy... wasn't he so lucky?
They felt like the new Masa was too lucky!
After all, this guy had no need to fight.
Yet, they quickly shook their heads since they knew that even if Masa's poverty might appear like nothing before them, they could say that because they had a lot of money.
Being poor meant that one had no hope, no future, and no sense of peace.
Still, when they heard of the fourth Masa's ability, all of them were dumbfounded.
"Voice of the Future."
The fourth Masa smiled and said, "That's my ability."
"...." 3x

The Voice of the Future.
This was the ability of the fourth Masa.
Yes, he might live in a normal world where everything was peaceful, but he had an ability, and this ability allowed him to change his life even if there was no other Masa since this ability allowed him to live well.
How did he get this ability?
It started last year when he was about to become a high school student, and he got a dangerous fever. Then, all of a sudden, he gained this new ability.
What was the use of it?
In simple terms, when he tried to do something, this ability would tell him the best path to achieve success, especially in terms of monetary.
Or rather, it could only be used to gain money, he thought.
If he gave an example, if he chose to make money in the stock market, it would lead him to which stocks would make money; if he had a business, it would lead him to the path that would let him gain a lot of a profit; if he became a civil servant, then it would tell him which superiors that he should kiss so he could have a fast promotion.
In conclusion, this ability allowed them to gain a great future without worrying about money.
Still, there was no doubt that this ability caused all of the three Masa to be in a daze.
Yes, whether it was Masa of One Piece, DxD, or Mahouka, all of them had been troubled by one thing.
Money!
Yes, money!
To develop everything that they had on their minds, money was needed.
Yes, they might be able to rob others, but this wasn't sustainable and stable. More importantly, as they had robbed others, they should also be prepared to be robbed. It was like only those who were prepared to be killed could kill.
So, there was no doubt that the best way for them to gain money was to open a business by combining all the knowledge of the three worlds, but this took a long time!
However, with this ability—
"Thank you!" 3x
All three Masas thanked the new Masa at the same time loudly.
"Ah, no, it's fine."
Masa from the normal world was speechless, but he told them that it was all fine since he didn't do much except have this unique ability, the Voice of the Future, yet even so, he understood why they were so grateful toward him.
Nevertheless, he had to say that all the Masa had shared with him were many good things, which made it even possible for him to control this whole universe if he had to exaggerate.
While, once again, having the power to destroy a city in the normal world might be exaggerated, Masa had to say it was all okay, he thought.
Instead, it was a good thing since when one was living as wealthy and important, there was no doubt the danger around them also increased.
Yet, who cares?
They were all strong, and all of them could get money as they wished to be with this ability.
Masa from Mahouka directly opened a private investment company, trying to gather as much money as possible.
Masa from DxD also did the same and tried to make as much money as possible.
Only Masa from One Piece and the fourth Masa, who came from a normal world mixed with various works, were all calm.
Yet, this was normal, okay?
After all, Masa from the world of One Piece was still in the middle of sailing, and the fourth Masa was just a normal high school student.
Nevertheless, Masa was probably the oldest among them, as he was in the 2nd year of high school.
"By the way, do you have a girlfriend, Masa? Or have you lost your virginity?"
"...you sure asked such a weird question."
While the fourth Masa was speechless, he also understood their questions since all of them wanted to know whether he had eaten anyone within that mixed world.
The world that he was in was a normal world without anything special, but in this world, he had met many heroines from famous works in his previous life.
Still, while he was close, he didn't have a girlfriend, nor did he think of getting one in high school; why?
Wasn't it obvious?
Money.
While his money wasn't bad, especially when he worked as a part-time model, which gave him quite a sum of money, and also gained a scholarship from the school, to manage all of that, he needed to work hard, so he didn't want to waste his time to date.
If the heroines could just accept being held by him without asking for responsibility, it might be good, but unfortunately, they definitely couldn't as they were about the same age as him, so they still had this fantasy where they wanted pure love.
Still, some women wanted to take care of him, making him their pet, but he definitely wouldn't become one.
However, everything changed after he got this ability a year ago, and after getting this ability, naturally, something had to be changed, and there was no need for him to be as stuffy as before. Nevertheless, even if they were all the same Masa, there was no need for him to be clear, right?
Still, watching the expressions of the fourth Masa, all of them looked at him knowingly, but this was good; the fourth Masa had been working hard for his family and family this entire year, so this year, as he had become the 2nd year of high school, he should enjoy his time well~!
Nevertheless, as the fourth Masa appeared, all of them decided to talk to each other for a while, especially after they knew that the time worked differently when they entered this white space, so there was no need to worry about anything.
Still, after they finished their talk, they started their own adventure, but let's talk about the fourth Masa later since this time, the focus was on the Masa of One Piece.
Masa of One Piece stretched his hands high, thinking the future was bright, especially after he got this ability. Watching the scenery of the sea from the window of his room, even though nothing changed much, just as the blue ocean, he felt more comfortable with this "Voice of Future," and at the same time, he knew that all the Masa thought the same way.
Was it possible to develop this cheat further?
The ability of this cheat was to tell the best way to reach success.
In other words, it was a future reading.
Yet, those who were men of science knew that a future was just millions of possibilities that could happen in one's life, and this "Voice of the Future" told them the best path among millions of paths to reach that great future.
Was it just a miracle?
Or was it possible to describe this power as a miracle computer that had computing power similar to that of a god?
No one knew the answer, but all of them had the ambition to develop this ability further, thinking of the possibility of developing this ability into an all-knowing skill that allowed them to see all the information in this world.
"...." The fourth Masa.
"By the way, what's your full name?"
"My name? Well, it is Tenma Masa."
"Tenma?"
"What a peculiar name."
"What do you mean?"
"No, I think that you might as well prepare that your world isn't a normal world."
"...you are joking, right?"
"...."
"Oi!"
All of them were Masa, and they understood that it was impossible for them to stay in the lull. there must be some problems or two, they thought, but they hoped for Tenma Masa to pass his hurdle, they thought.
"Then, let's go back."
"Oh!" 3x
Masa of One Piece, who had left the white space, held Carina and Perona.
The two of them who were being carried by Masa to the room after he finished his experiment, thought that after they arrived at Water 7, they were going to search for more helpers!
"Oh, that's the Water 7."
Hearing his words, the sleepy Carina and Perona lifted their heads and stared at the distant island, wondering whether there was a woman who could attract his attention or not.
Still, as expected, when they arrived at this shipbuilding island, they encountered a similar situation.
"GIVE US ALL OF YOUR MONEY, TREASURES, AND MONEY!"
"...." Everyone.
akikan40
Start by Eating Jake Jake no Mi 78 Water 7
View in app
Water 7.
It is one of the most famous islands within Paradise, which was the first half of the Grand Line, and was also famous for its shipbuilding industry.
In a world where the ratio of land was less than the ocean, there was no doubt that it was one of the most profitable industries in the world.
"Capital of Water..."
As Masa thought about the nickname of this city, he felt that it was suitable since he could see how this island was about to sink.
Was it the punishment to this island for creating the legendary ancient weapon?
Masa couldn't help but think so, and when he thought of Enies Lobby, a government-controlled stronghold in Paradise, which had a gigantic hollow below it, and when he thought of this place, it reminded him of the memory of the fourth Masa, who had read the latest chapter of One Piece, he felt that this was similar to the accident of the Lulusia Kingdom, which was destroyed by the whim of the "god" of this world.
Yet, frankly, even if he knew of such a future, there was probably nothing he could do, and he would do nothing, especially when the Lulusia Kingdom had made up their minds to break away from the World Government.
As Masa had said before, the weak had no rights, and to live was either to become strong or oppress those who were weaker than them.
If your status doesn't match, then just be obedient since no one will listen to the weak in this world.
It might be cruel, but would the talk about justice and freedom be heard by those who had power?
No way.
It was because you had a power that people were willing to listen to your nonsense, like those headmasters of schools or leaders of companies who kept talking, yet no one dared to say anything and could only listen obediently.
If the one who said those things was someone with a lower status, then would people even listen?
Still, the talk about morals aside, Masa was curious about what the ancient weapon was.
If he was talking about the future, then the mightiest weapon would be a nuclear-related weapon.
Yet, would a nuclear-related weapon cause a large hole in the sea that was impossible to fill?
More importantly, this weapon would also cause the sea level to rise, which confused him.
Frankly, in his original world, there is also a similar phenomenon that occurred in the Indian Ocean known as a "Gravity Hole," or "Indian Ocean Geoid Low (IOGL)."
The "Gravity Hole" is a circular depression that covers about 1.2 million square miles, just off India's southern coast. It's the lowest point in the geoid and the biggest gravitational anomaly in the Indian Ocean. The IOGL causes a 328-foot dip in sea level.
Frankly, until now, there is no clear answer for why this phenomenon happened, but everyone believes that it was formed by plumes of magma from the remnants of an ancient ocean bed.
These plumes may be related to the disappearance of the Tethys Ocean, which was much older than the Indian Ocean. As India's landmass drifted and collided with Asia, the Tethys Ocean disappeared, and fragments from its sunken floor were offset by the magma plumes.
Or, considering the origin of the author, this hole might be inspired by Naruto Whirlpool in Japan, which was a never-ending whirlpool located in Tokushima, caused by the interaction of the Seto Inland Sea and the Pacific Ocean, and the strait's unique underwater geography.
Still, considering the technology in One Piece, Masa believed that this ancient weapon must be an environment modification type of weapon.
Similar to the technology of Vegapunk, Weatheria, or even Dance Powder on the "Alabasta Arc," which allowed the people in this world to manipulate the weather, which was part of the environment of the world
The ancient weapon in this world was probably the type of weapon that could modify the "very" environment of this world that might cause a disaster such as a flood, an earthquake, a volcanic eruption, etc.
Well, no matter what kind of weapon the ancient weapon was, he knew that it was meaningless to think about that problem now. Instead, he should be thinking about the new ship that he was about to build, and considering the rise of the volume of the ocean, he knew that the bigger was better, so that way, it was possible to have a farm there, too.
Yet, when he thought about the current technology of this world, except for Vegapunk, Masa couldn't help but sigh.
Still, if Noah could stay alive in the great flood with an old ship that he built by himself even if he had no experience to build one, Masa knew that even if the world of One Piece's ship was a little backward, he could stay alive with an old ship.
Nevertheless, the food was still a problem since the size of the ship needed to be huge so Masa could have a farm on that ship since it was impossible for him to eat fish all the time, right?
'Should I use the Ton Ton no Mi?'
Masa knew that with the Ton Ton no Mi, he could make an island float, ignoring gravity, inertia, mass, and the rest like the power of Fuwa Fuwa no Mi of Shiki. By then, there was no need for him to build a ship, and he could live on the floating island all the time.
Well, if he somehow "died," then all the floating islands would fall to the ground, and all the people that he brought would die too.
So, there was no doubt that a ship was necessary, especially a giant one.
Yet, with the current technology and everything, was it even possible to create a giant ship in a short time?
No, building a giant ship for many years would definitely be needed.
'Unless...'
Masa had that "Devil Fruit," he thought.
"What's wrong?" Carina asked with doubt since Masa appeared to be in deep thought, and somehow, if he was in such a situation, she felt that something bad must be happening.
"Did you think something dirty again, Masa?" Perona asked curiously.
Considering how pervy this guy was, she felt that this was probably what this bad guy thought.
"....." Masa and Carina.
"W-Why did you two stare at me that way?"
If it was only Masa who stared at her speechlessly, Perona wouldn't care, but if it was Carina, then it was a different matter!
'This woman...'
Did she think that Carina had the upper hand since she was Masa's first?
'Hmph!'
Perona knew Masa's taste well after she stayed with him, and she was going to make sure that he was crazy about her!
"...this girl is stupidly cute," Carina said with a sigh.
"Let her." Masa didn't care much about Perona's thoughts; after all, everyone's level of education in this world was so different. Not everyone could be smart and level-headed like those who were in positions of leadership in this world.
Or rather, even those with a high status were sometimes stupid.
No, in this world, those with high status were stupid since they had no need to study to live and could enjoy their lives in debauchery without worry.
In this world, if people were smart because they had no one to rely on and they weren't strong, they had to use their heads to live, such as Carina and Nami, who relied on their cunningness to live.
Masa knew that, and that was why he treasured Carina since, whether it was Perona or Brook, neither of them had a good head.
Well, Brook's IQ was quite good, Masa thought, but Perona's?
Let's forget this woman who loved cute and gloomy things.
"By the way, what kind of ship do you want to build? Is it a gloomy one like Thriller Bark?" Perona asked with a cute tone as she leaned him and deliberately pressed her ample breaths against him.
"...no, but I can make a gothic and horror-like room for you on the ship later."
"It's a promise~!" Perona kissed his cheek several times happily, causing Carina to roll her eyes, thinking that it was good for being ignorant.
Still, Carina was probably jealous, so she looked away. Fortunately, Masa wasn't dumb or ignorant, so he held her waist softly, which caused her to look at him helplessly before she leaned on his shoulder.
Well, this was the life of the strong.
Because of that, Masa knew that he had to continue to become stronger or stronger.
Nevertheless, this time, besides the ship, he knew it was time for him to get his fourth Devil Fruit.
Still, Carina and Perona, who were by his side, stared at his face and wondered if it was their imagination, but had their man become more handsome?

"So this is a Water 7."
"You have never been here before, Brook?"
"It's quite different from the past, after all."
"How different is it?"
"Hmm... it was much, much larger than before."
"Larger?" 3x
Brook nodded and said, "This one is so small."
Yup, this was the impression that Brook got when he saw the Water 7 for the first time after so long. The island was cramped, he thought.
"...did you know something, Masa?" Carina quickly looked at Masa, which quickly attracted the attention of Perona and Brook.
"It isn't something surprising since many parts of the world have also been flooded by the sea."
"..." 3x
"...hey, don't say something so scary, Masa."
"Yeah, it is as if you want to say this world is going to sink, right?"
"You are joking, right?"
If this was the truth, then... wouldn't it be scary?
"It's fine." Masa was calm and said, "I am going to make a big ship."
"..." 3x
"Let's stop thinking and just enjoy, okay?"
"It's hard to enjoy this trip after you said that!" 3x
The three of them complained since there was no way for them to enjoy this trip after knowing that this world might be flooded!
Nevertheless, there was no doubt the bigger the ship was, the better.
"Music room and horror-theme room, right? I know." Masa nodded. "I also want to make my own indoor farm, too."
"...indoor farm."
"Stop scaring us!"
While Perona and Brook were frightened, thinking this whole world might be submerged by the ocean, Carina rolled her eyes and asked, "By the way, Masa, what is that?"
"Hmm?"
When Masa followed Carina's finger, he saw a steam locomotive that moved on the top of the ocean.
"....."
The steam locomotive aside, Masa had to say, the technology of One Piece was weird since how could a railway continue to float on the top of the ocean even with such an incredible weight on the top of it?
"Oh, right, this isn't a locomotive."
"What?" 3x
"No." Shaking his head, Masa knew that he had made the wrong assumption since the water vehicle before him wasn't a locomotive he knew. Instead, it was another type of ship that had the shape of a locomotive. "If I am not wrong, it is known as a sea train."
"Sea train?"
"It's a ship, but it uses a different mechanism to move."
"What kind?"
"It seems to be a paddle."
"Oh, not using the wind like ours?"
"Yup, there is a machine inside that ship that will make it move in the ocean. Naturally, this machine needs a different type of energy to move, so it isn't cheap."
"Will you make that?"
"Hmm... let me think first. I want to see what kind of ship this island, which is known to have the best shipbuilding technology, can offer me." Masa folded his arms and said, "I don't lack money, but can their technology satisfy me?"
The highest chance this city couldn't satisfy him, Masa thought.
Yet, there was no doubt that there were many strange and unique technologies on this island, such as "Cola Energy" of Franky.
How the heck did a ship move with a cola?
Was it by using the kinetic energy of the carbonation of the cola?
Or did it get energy from the sugar in the cola?
Masa wasn't sure, but if the fourth Masa brought this technology to his world, there was no doubt those countries that relied on oils and gases to survive would do their best to kill him, he thought, but he would try to get this unique technology.
Regardless, he felt that this island was like Venice, which was also known as the "City of Water" in his original world, and, similarly, this city also sunk in his original world.
"Well, you got a lot of money from Moria-sama, after all..." Perona sighed helplessly, which caused Masa and Carina to roll their eyes.
Moria had a lot of money?
Hahaha...
Still, the two of them decided to remain silent since there was nothing good to show off about their wealth.
"By the way, do you think there is a criminal organization here?"
"There must be." Masa nodded firmly and said, "If one or a group wants to grow, it is impossible to grow by just being kind and gentle, after all."
"...." 3x
"Well, anyway, our purpose is the ship. When we finish, we can play around. There are many places that you can visit and enjoy."
Masa then put his hand in his pockets, and then a wad of money went to Brook.
"...." Perona.
"...this is?" Brook subconsciously accepted the money awkwardly.
"That's one million belly. If that's not enough, tell me."
"Enough! Enough! This is enough!"
One million?
Brook had never touched so much money!
"Tell me if you need more; maybe you want a legendary sword or musical instrument. Just tell me what you need."
"...."
It was good to have a wealthy boss, Brook thought.
"What about me?!" Perona couldn't help but complain.
"Just tell me what you want, and I will buy all of them."
"Really?!"
"Yes."
"Yay~!"
"....."
Watching Perona cling to Masa happily, Brook felt that it was better to become a woman, he thought.
'Well, will he even be interested in female bones?'
"No, I am not."
"Hyohoho, can you tell what I am thinking?"
Masa rolled his eyes, then said, "Let's go."
"Oh!" 3x
With that, Masa ended his time with the ship which he stole from the noble family and entered the Water 7 for the first time. Watching the architecture, canals, fashions, and many others, he felt that this place was really similar to Venice.
Nevertheless, there was no doubt that all of them attracted the attention of many.
"Wow, those two are so beautiful..."
"Wait! Wait! Is that a skeleton?! That's a skeleton, right?"
"Offu!"
Whether it was Perona or Carina, the two of them were beautiful on their own, especially when they had received care and nutrition from Masa, which made their charms even higher.
It was the same case with Brook, who was just all bones with an afro.
Yet, there was no doubt that the one that attracted the most attention was Masa, as he just appeared that special. Unlike before, there were the four of him, and his charm had become even better, which made him a bit speechless.
Nevertheless, Masa often wore a facemask as he learned from the habit of Masa of Mahouka and the fourth Masa.
'Well, I shouldn't call him the fourth Masa, right?'
Yet, when he thought of the world in which the fourth Masa was, it was hard to give him a label such as Mahouka or DxD as the fourth Masa lived in the world with mixed characters from various harem comedy works.
So, the harem comedy Masa?
The fourth Masa became that dense character who didn't notice the feelings of the girls around him.
Well, considering the status of Masa in that world, he felt like... it was normal for him not to be interested in the relationship; at least, this guy wanted to wait until he could enter the university as it wasn't easy to enter his targeted university while working to make money.
If Masa was distracted by a relationship, and his dream was crushed, then... it would be too late to cry, right?
Still, there was no need to worry too much about this, especially after the harem comedy Masa had this ability, he thought.
Nevertheless, as he was in the middle of his thinking, many people with dirty clothes appeared, surrounding them, holding various weapons as they looked at their group with greedy smiles.
"Woho~! The women are so beautiful! Let's get them boss!"
"That walking skeleton is rare! We can sell this skeleton as a slave, too!"
"By the way, that guy with the face mask, isn't he handsome!"
"Anyway! Give up all of your resistance and bring everything!"
"....." Masa, Carina, Perona, and Brook.
"...how many times again this time, Carina?"
"I am too lazy to count, Masa."
"...did you often meet this situation, Masa, Carina?" Brook asked, speechless, wondering how the IQ of people in this world had been lowered so low that they didn't realize what kind of dangerous people this group of people tried to attack.
"Dammit! How dare you?!"
Still, Perona, who was a pirate, didn't have a good temper, and how could she allow this group of people to do something bad to the people she loved?!
Yes, like Carina, Perona simply fell for Masa, who got her virginity for the first time and dominated her entirely, and she also thought of them as a family, so watching her family being threatened like this, how could she bear it?!
Nevertheless, when Perona thought to use her ability, suddenly, out of nowhere, another group of people beat up this gangster group mercilessly.
"You bastard!"
"Do you think you can do whatever you want on this island?!"
"I will beat you to death!"
"....." 4x
Masa, Carina, Perona, and Brook didn't do anything and just remained in silence, watching a group of people dressed like mechanics, and strange glasses, beat up the gangster that tried to do something evil to them.
Watching them, Masa felt like he underestimated the value of morals in this world, and he thought that there was a good person left. He knew that it might be strange, but all the people he had met were far from good, or rather, no one was a good person!
Carina was a thief, Brook was a pirate, and Perona was also a pirate.
Masa was the only one who was just a normal guy.
If he appeared on the peaceful island, then would he even try to kill others?
So, while the appearance of this group was strange, Masa was ready to thank them, but—
"We have saved you, give us money!"
"Oh, let us play with your women for a bit, too!"
"Ah, aren't you so handsome? By the way—"
Masa beat all of them mercilessly, realizing that only by being ruthless could one live in this world safely.

"You are not going to kill them?" Perona asked.
"I will give them one more chance. Anyway, they are just a small fry."
Yet, even if Masa didn't kill all of them, he had broken all of their limbs and beat them mercilessly, including messing up their vocal cords so they could no longer talk.
Merciless?
Well, he wanted to be seen as merciless so no one could bother him.
Yet, there was no doubt that he understood the necessity of a reputation since if he had a reputation, then would he meet such a mess?
No one caused trouble to the World Nobles because of the reputation that they had kept for 800 years.
It was also the same case as those Four Pirate Emperors on the New World; in that place, no one dared to cause trouble to the four of them as they had shown their might, which made them feared.
At this moment, Masa knew that he had to be ruthless and feared so that no one could bother him.
"You should let me handle this, Masa."
Brook already held his cane sword, ready to slay all of them, but as expected, Masa's speed was so fast, so before he even did anything, all of the enemies were beaten. More importantly, he wanted to repay him, especially after Masa had helped him, and he also got money from Masa.
If he did nothing, then he would feel uncomfortable!
"Well, I will leave this one to you, then."
"Hmm?"
Unlike the others, Masa felt like the identity of this group of people was familiar, and he knew that sooner or later, the leader and the comrades of this group would come, then as expected—
"Oi! Oi! How dare you do that to my family! Don't you know who they are?! They are—"
"FRANKY FAMILY!"
"....."
Whether it was Masa, Carina, Perona, or Brook, the four of them didn't say anything and looked up, watching many people gathered together as they raised their hands to the side, clearly showing a strange pose.
Yet, more importantly, the leader of this group was—
"PERVERT!" 3X
"..."
Masa couldn't help but sigh, thinking that reality was different from fiction.
In reality, what would happen if you saw a man with just panties outdoors?
Damn!
His eyes!
Still, once again, the reality was different from the fiction since while Franky and the others appeared like good people in the story, when they really appeared, their existence was simply a disturbance. Moreover, as this group was created by a hoodlum, not all of them could follow Franky's creed, who just wanted this island to be better.
Nevertheless, Masa had to say; it was hard to see a grown-up man standing in a high position just wearing nothing but panties, he thought.
Still, while Franky was angry and also thought that all of them were amazed by his entrance, he suddenly felt slightly humilated when he saw Carina and Perona looked at his lower body in disdain.
"D-Damn!"
Franky wasn't sure why, but somehow he covered his lower body tightly with his large arms!
"Huh?! Boss covers his crotch!"
"What's happening?!"
"This... this is the first time in my life!"
"...." 4x
"Should I beat them up, Masa?" Brook asked.
"Go ahead."
"Leave everything to me."
Moria aside, Brook didn't think that Franky and his family were that good.
"By the way, be careful, Brook." Still, Masa decided to remind Brook. "That pervert is a cyborg."
"Cyborg?" 3x
"Oh?" Strangely enough, Franky looked at Masa with a pleased expression. This might be strange, but he had confirmed that his family didn't die, and he knew those who were beaten didn't have a good personality, and watching this good-looking group, he understood why the four of them beat up his family. Still, this and that was different.
Yet, a man's love for a mecha never changed!
"You have good eyes, boys. You can see how amazing my body is."
Franky raised his hands high as if trying to show off his mecha body.
"....." Masa.
"Masa, I can't bear it any more! I will beat them up!"
Perona then summoned her ghosts and ordered them to attack Franky and his family.
"Negative Hollows!"
"Huh?!"
Franky and his family were dumbfounded by Perona's ability.
"Devil Fruit?!"
At the same time, Brook also made his move.
"Eh?! T-That's a skeleton!"
Not only Perona, but Brook's appearance also surprised all of them!
"Hyohohoho, you have made the wrong person your enemy. Also, while I like a woman's panties, I don't like to see a man's panties, so please cover that, okay?"
"NO WAY!"
"...."
"Then, it can't be helped."
Brook didn't care much and decided to beat up all of them first. "I will beat all of you first." All of a sudden, he vanished and moved with a speed that was impossible to follow with the eyes.
Swish!
Brook had no flesh, and his body was made of bones. Because of that, he was fast!
In just a blink, suddenly, he appeared in front of all of them and started to slash them one by one.
"ARGGGGHHH!"
"My arm! My arm!"
"I should die now..."
Facing the might of Perona and Brook, no one within the Franky Family could hold on, and all of them quickly fell one after another. Naturally, as Masa had told them not to kill, they didn't kill anyone.
"I will get my Devil Fruit soon, right?" Carina asked since she felt useless somehow.
"If there is no problem, then yes." Masa nodded. "If not, then we will wait till we go to the next island."
"I know that you might answer me, but what kind of a Devil Fruit do you want me to eat?"
"It is either Paramecia or Zoan."
Yes, besides a certain Paramecia that Masa thought he could find on this island, he thought of a certain Zoan that might suit Carina well.
"Huh? Zoan? The one that turns me into an animal? Really?" Carina was surprised, but then she nodded. "But if it can increase my physical ability, then it might be good." She knew that if her physical ability could increase, then she could help him better. "Is it a bird type?"
If she ate a Zoan, then she wished for one that could help her to fly, so she could run away faster, and probably developed it further so that she could match the boss of the "World Economic," who also ate a bird-type Zoan.
By then, it might even be possible for her to steal the business of the "World Economic" and become the master of media!
"Be patient."
"...." Carina.
Nevertheless, at this moment, Franky was in a panic.
"Boss!" 2x
The only two females in the Franky Family looked at Franky in panic.
"Dammit! What are they?!"
Was this his punishment for being a pervert?!
Or was it his punishment for letting his family do whatever they wanted?
Yet—
"It's too early. Do you think that you can win against me?!"
Franky suddenly put his palms forward, and his arms suddenly swelled up, and a pipe-like device emerged from his palms. All the air was gathered, and at that moment, he was ready to shoot out a powerful compressed air cannon.
"Coup de—"
As Brook got close, Franky quickly used his strongest technique and aimed it toward Brook, Masa, and everyone.
'Ah, this might be dangerous...' Brook thought, but fortunately—
"Don't look down on anyone, Brook. Always go all out."
"Eh?"
Franky was dumbfounded since—
BOOOOOOOM!
A bright light emerged, and then an explosion happened.
'Laser?'
Franky thought as he was swallowed by an explosion along with his family.
While it might be strange, he thought that he had met a comrade.
Still, whether it was Carina, Perona, or Brook, they had to say that Masa was too strong, right?
Nevertheless, Masa wondered what was wrong with his luck, but since Franky had come to provoke him, then there was no need to hesitate. Well, he wasn't going to kill this guy, but he was going to get something from this guy.
"Sorry, Masa, I let my guard down."
"It's fine."
Still, Brook thought that he should train to become stronger.
However, Masa didn't think too much about Brook since he knew well that Franky wasn't weak.
One Piece might be a world where physical ability and the Devil Fruit were supreme against everything, but the power of technology wasn't underestimated, and because of that, Masa was going to get the blueprint on Franky's chest.
Still, before that, Masa was going to get all the important information on Franky's head, including the cola energy.
All of a sudden, everything was surrounded by a hologram illusion, hiding them from the naughty eyes that tried to peek at them.
At the same time, Perona and Brook saw Masa summon a hologram screen and a strange loading bar with "download" and "percentage" written on it.
"...what are you doing?"
"Oh?" Masa looked at the two and said, "It might be easier if you experience it yourselves. By the way, let me give you all the map of this island."
"Hmm?" 2x
While Carina was calm, Perona and Brook were confused until they saw a loading bar on the top of their heads.
"Huh? This is?!" 2x
Yet, all of a sudden, a detailed map of this island appeared in their heads, which made them dumbfounded!
"Cool, right?"
"....."
This guy... wasn't he too amazing?
"Masa, let's go and get their wealth!" Carina quickly said.
"Okay, when this is over. Let's get it."
More money was good, Masa thought.
Still, after he had gained all the necessary information from Franky's brain, he opened this pervert's chest, and a refrigerator spot appeared from that chest.
"..." 3x
Masa put his hand inside, then took out something from it.
"What is that? Is that a treasure map?"
"Well, it can be called a treasure." Masa then manipulated Franky's memory before he cleared up everything. "Let's get their treasure first."
As he said those words, the four of them went to the headquarters of the Franky Family, leaving Frankly and their family behind as if nothing had happened.
Yet, there was no doubt this trip of his to the Water 7 had given him a lot of things; he thought, especially this cola energy and the blueprint of the ancient weapon.

"Above 100 meters in length?!"
"Yes."
After they had gotten all the wealth of the Franky Family, Masa and his group quickly visited the largest shipbuilding company on this island, The Galley-La Company.
While there might be many shipbuilding companies on this island, which was probably cheaper, Masa didn't have an interest in the no-name characters, and he knew that those companies were as good as worthless.
More importantly, the boss of the Galley-La Company was Iceburg, who was the mayor of the Water 7 and also the disciple of Tom, the shipwright who had built the ship of Gol D. Roger.
Besides Franky, Iceberg was the only person that Masa could think of to make a ship for them.
"Can you?"
"Ah, sure!"
Iceberg was startled, but he nodded since this was a big order!
Luffy's ship, the Going Merry's length was about 10 meters or so, and Thousand Sunny's length was about 50 meters or so, but Masa wished to get double that.
"The money isn't a problem and I also have Adam Wood with me."
"Adam wood..." Iceberg became even more dumbfounded, but—
"But I want to see the design first."
"Yes." Somehow, this was like a challenge for Iceberg, so he was a bit excited since there was no limit on the budget, and Masa even prepared a rare wood, which made it even more interesting.
More importantly, Masa wasn't a pirate, just a wealthy young man who just wanted to make a ship, which made Iceberg ready to go all out!
If only Iceberg knew that Masa had beaten Franky, then there was no doubt this guy wouldn't act this way.
"How much is the design fee? I will give you the money right away."
"No, you don't have to." Iceberg refused Masa's offer and said, "The design fee is free, and when you are satisfied, you can pay the down payment later."
"Okay."
"But can you tell me your request?"
"It has to be high-tech and unique."
"High-tech? Unique?"
This time, Carina, Perona, and Brook didn't say anything, and they just listened to the two since their words weren't something that they could understand.
"Kalifa, bring me papers for a design and a note."
Iceberg was ready to write down all of Masa's requirements, but his secretary didn't seem to answer him. "Kalifa?"
"Ah, yes!"
Kalifa was woken up after she had been staring at Masa in a daze.
Masa also stared at Kalifa and looked at her curiously, but then, his shoulders were nudged by Carina and Perona, who noticed he was staring at Iceberg's secretary, which made him awkward.
Yet, he couldn't help it, okay?
Kalifa.
Somehow, this name was quite memorable, he thought, but then again, this Kalifa was different, especially when she was so tall and had long strawberry-blonde hair and such a large bust. More importantly, her appearance was cool and beautiful, especially those long legs that appeared smooth and slender.
Perona's legs were good, but Kalifa's were on a different level!
Lastly, Kalifa wore glasses, which gave him a strange feeling.
Similarly, Kalifa also couldn't help but stare at Masa since he was so handsome. She might be a spy and disguising herself as Iceberg's secretary, but even so, it wasn't like she didn't have an interest in a relationship, okay?
Still, she knew that she needed to do her job.
"Ah, yes, please wait for a moment, Iceberg-san."
Nevertheless, she felt a bit embarrassed to let her emotions interrupt her job.
"...."
Iceberg was speechless and then looked at Masa, who sat down in between two beautiful women.
"...."
Well, he couldn't say much about this, but—
"Don't seduce my secretary, okay?"
"...did you see me do anything?"
"No, you are not."
However, Iceberg had to say he was a bit jealous!
Was being a handsome guy make him able to seduce any woman as he wished to be?!
"I understand your feeling." Brook nodded as if he could understand Iceberg's thought.
"....."
Iceberg blinked his eyes and asked, "...is he a skeleton? Wait? Is he a skeleton? Ghost?!" He was dumbfounded since he had been ignoring Brook, but when he saw him for the first time, he couldn't help but feel startled and stood from his seat.
"Hyohohoho! That's right~! I am nothing but deadbones~!" Brook laughed happily, then looked at Kalifa, who had returned, bowing his head politely, and said, "By the way, young lady, can you let me see your panties~?"
"..." Everyone.
"...that's sexual harassment." Kalifa took a deep breath and looked at Masa. "I am sorry, but can I kick him?"
"Go ahead. He might be happy, though."
"Then, I won't." Kalifa looked at Brook in disgust like trash, then ignored him.
"....." Brook.
Still ignoring Brook, Masa looked at Kalifa's back, thinking that being a spy was a hard job, he thought. Nevertheless, he had to say that Water 7 had a lot of good things that he could gain.
Or rather, in all the places that Luffy and his group visited, there were many good things!
Nevertheless, in Water 7, his plan didn't change, and even if Kalifa was his type, this and that was a different matter, and to be honest, facing a group of agents that would do anything to do their missions for the World Government, Masa had no guilt or whatever, so—
'Let's do it after this.'
Still, before that, he was going to see whether Iceberg could really make the ship that he dreamed of.
If not, then he might as well make his own ship.
Yet, while Masa was busy making his own ship, the world hadn't calmed down after the death of Kizaru.
The death of Kizaru had a much greater impact on the world than anyone could have imagined.
"Old man..."
On a certain island, a large man with a strange costume and a large axe on his back had been crying for many days, and similarly, a scientist-like figure with an apple-like head had also been in a bad mood for many days, yet even so, he still did his job, showing how obsessed he was with his research.
Yet, for their reaction was nothing compared to the Marines, who had lost a figure of admiral.
Not only was Kizaru killed, they also failed to search for the figure who had killed their admiral.
No information or whatever was known, and all of them were completely clueless about who this person was, which made this powerful organization anxious as if they were being targeted by something invisible.
"As I have said before, let's destroy this island!"
"Then, killing all of those innocents?"
"How do you know that they are not the criminals?! It is better to kill all of those people, including this island, so all of the people can understand what the price is for hunting us! Don't be naive, Kuzan!"
"Isn't this what we're doing now?! We have been hunting all of those pirates, criminals, and everything! We have shown the world that no one can escape from us!"
"BUT THAT'S NOT ENOUGH!"
"EVEN SO, YOUR METHOD IS TOO MUCH, AKAINU!"
Even if Kuzan followed a lazy justice after all of that, he still couldn't bear to see all the innocents in the Saobody Archipelago become a sacrifice for Kizaru.
Yes, Kizaru had died, and he was also sad, but even so, instead of going after the small fry, there were many better methods to show what it meant to provoke the Marines. He might not be able to stop the tragedy in Ohara, but this time, he would stop it!
Still, as Akainu and Kuzan fought each other, no one stopped them since everyone had their own thoughts.
Nevertheless, Garp, the legendary Marine hero, was the same as ever, picking up his nose, showing that he didn't care even if the admiral was killed or not since, in his eyes, they were just the dog of the World Government.
In his eyes, the ones he cared about were just his grandsons, who were pirates, and his pink-haired protegee, who was so selfish, forcing his view on others even if many sacrifices had been made, causing those who had sacrificed themselves for the war to appear meaningless instead of being seen as a hero, who fought for justice.
"By the way, where is Sengoku?"
"Do you need to ask that question?"
"Ah, as expected, being a Fleet Admiral is troublesome," Garp said boldly.
"Don't show me that fact, Garp! You are a Marine! You should know what it means to lose Kizaru to all of us!"
"I know! I know! Stop nagging to me, Tsuru!"
Everyone had their own opinions, and no one backed them down. Even so, Sengoku knew that he had to face the real leader of this world, the Five Elders.

"So you have come, Sengoku?"
"Yes."
Sengoku took a deep breath as he faced the five figures before him solemnly.
Marcus Mars, Jaygarcia Saturn, Topman Warcury, Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro, and Shepherd Ju Peter.
Those were the members of the Five Elders, the group of five who were known as the real leaders of this world, even above the World Noble, who was known as the creator of this world.
While the World Nobles were arrogant and did what they wished on the world, in front of the five of them, they became as docile as a puppy.
Even Sengoku, who was known as the leader of all the Marines, could only succumb and be docile before the five of them, yet as a strong man, it was impossible for him to be like those weaklings, and he also had his own pride.
Still, even so, he couldn't raise his head, especially when he hadn't solved the problem caused by the death of Kizaru or found the killers of one of the admirals of the Marines.
"Have you found the killers, Sengoku?"
"....." Sengoku.
"How useless. You should be more ruthless and destroy the Saoboady Archipelago."
"If that happens, the loss is too great. Saobody is different from Ohara, after all."
"But even so, the reputation of the World Government is damaged because of this."
"It's already too late for us to destroy the Saobody, especially when this killer or those killers have run away."
"Then, should we do nothing?"
All of them talked on their own, ignoring Sengoku, who was the leader of the Marines. Still, the death of Kizaru might not be a bad thing for them, they thought, especially since Sengoku had gotten ahead of himself or was arrogant after all of the achievements that he had gained.
Yes, the loss of the admiral was great, yet there were many people in this world.
Unlike an animal that could go extinct, a human would continue to breed, and it was impossible for it to become extinct.
In this world, there were many people who could replace Kizaru's role!
Yes, the reputation of the Marines and the World Government might be slightly damaged due to the death of Kizaru, yet this also made the Marines become more obedient as this single mistake made Sengoku unable to lift his head.
After all, under whose order did Kizaru go to the Saobody Archipelago?
It was Sengoku!
"So, Sengoku, have you found this killer?"
While Sengoku felt heavy, he shook his head and said, "Not yet—"
"HOW USELESS!"
Before Sengoku could say his excuse, Topman roared, showing his dissatisfaction toward Sengoku.
"I..."
Still, Sengoku said, "We'll do our best to catch this killer! We won't let this person or group go! We will hunt them down!"
"That's what you should do. That's your job, right? So, have you discovered any single clues? There should be a lot of Den Den Muschi on the Saobadody Archipelago, right?"
Under those questions, Sengoku could only remain silent as there was nothing.
Yes, nothing!
The trace, video, records, or whatever, nothing was discovered, and what they knew was that Kizaru had passed away like that; besides that, Sengoku knew nothing.
"I am sorry. We haven't been able to discover anything."
The Five Elders were in silence for a moment.
"It seems this killer might have planned to kill Kizaru for a while."
"No, it might not be Kizaru. It might be any admiral in the Marines."
"Well, whatever, but have you thought of a way to recover our reputation, Sengoku?"
Clearly, among the Five Elders, no one cared much about the death of Kizaru since what was important was to recover the confidence of people toward the Marines and the World Government.
After all, after this accident, many pirates started their attacks on the countries that were affiliated with the World Government, and many of them started to become annoying in their minds.
Still facing this question, Sengoku took a deep breath and said, "I have been thinking of erasing one pirate group among the Four Emperors."
"Oh?" 5x
Their expressions quickly changed, and they thought that Sengoku was as bold as ever.
"Do you have the confidence to attack the Four Emperors?"
"We do." Sengoku nodded. "I have been thinking of attacking the Big Mom, considering her position and all."
"Let's not make a hasty decision since if you lose, the reputation of the World Government and Marines will be further reduced."
"We won't lose!"
"The most important thing is to search for Kizaru's replacement." Nusjuro looked at Sengoku and asked, "Have you found candidates?"
Frankly, what the Five Elders wished for was a balance since they knew well that pirates couldn't be eliminated.
Yes, the number of pirates might increase due to Gol D. Roger, but it was still within the tolerance of the World Government, especially since it wasn't them who were attacked.
Still facing this question, Sengoku nodded. "I have been thinking about choosing either Gion or Tokikake."
"Hmm... do you think that they have the power to replace Kizaru?"
"That's..."
Sengoku knew that while Gion and Tokikae were good, they were weaker than Kizaru.
Kizaru was on another level, after all, especially after he had eaten the Pika Pika no Mi, and because of that, no one expected that he would be killed.
"We have been thinking of starting a World Conscription."
"World Conscription?!" Sengoku was startled. "But that's..."
Unfair, he thought, especially to choose a civilian who had never been in the Marines, to suddenly become an admiral, especially when those he had chosen as candidates had been working hard for so long.
"What's important is the power. If they are weak, then they are useless as a deterrent. Or rather, if they are strong enough, we won't say anything."
Sengoku couldn't say anything, but he thought for a while, thinking of a solution to this problem since he knew that many wouldn't accept how someone outside could suddenly be chosen as an admiral, like how the World Government would give a legal pirate permission known as a Shichibukai.
"...then, what about a competition?"
"Competitions?"
"Yes." Sengoku nodded and said, "We will hold a competition and even broadcast it to the world, and the winner of this competition will become the admiral. If that's the case, no one will complain since this person has shown his power in front of everyone, and the world will also understand the power of the new admiral."
"Hmmm...." 5x
The Five Elders fell into a deep silence, thinking that Sengoku's idea wasn't bad.
"That's not a bad idea."
"We can raise the confidence of the countries affiliated with the World Government this way."
"The strongest is the admiral."
"It might take time, but the result will outweigh all the disadvantages."
"Then?" Sengoku sighed in relief when he heard their answers.
"Can you be responsible for all of this, then, Sengoku?"
"Yes, please leave everything to me!"
"Yes, there will be no more mistakes."
"Yes."
Sengoku nodded and finally gave a chance to those Vice Admirals to fight off the positions of the admirals, but then again, whether they could get the position of the admirals was something that they had to fight off, and even if the position of the admiral was taken by an outsider, it didn't matter since as the Five Elders had said before, only the strong got everything.
This was the conversation that Sengoku had with the Five Elders a few days ago, and soon, this announcement would be known to the world.
Nevertheless, Masa, who got the blueprint of the ancient weapon, Pluto, understood what kind of a weapon this ship was.
"Hmm...."
akikan40
Start by Eating Jake Jake no Mi 82 Tournament and Ancient Weapon
View in app
After they left the Galley-Lay Company, Masa and his group spent their time stopping by shops to buy clothes, food, musical instruments, unique items, and many other things.
Enjoying their time, this was what they did before they decided to book the entire bar for themselves.
Masa felt that the owner and the name of the bar was quite familiar somehow, but he was too busy to look at the blueprint of the ancient weapon.
However—
"Masa! Masa! Look at the newspaper!"
"..."
Masa fell silent as Carina pressed the newspaper so close to his face. "...I can't read if the newspaper is so close."
"...sorry, sorry." Carina became awkward, but even so, she couldn't stop her excitement. "Anyway, read the newspaper first!"
"What is it?"
Not only Masa but Perona and Brook were curious before their expressions turned surprised.
"Admiral War!" 2x
Masa was also dumbfounded since he never thought such a thing would exist.
Or rather, did such an event happen in the original?
No!
In the original story, when Kizaru left the Marines, and Akainu became the fleet admiral, two admirals weren't chosen among the vice admirals of the Marines. Instead, those positions were chosen among civilians.
Naturally, those two admirals, whether it was Fujitora or Ryokugyu, weren't normal people as they had eaten a powerful Devil Fruit.
Still, compared to the vice admirals, there was no doubt that the two lacked the reputation and closeness to the Marines, yet their strength was obvious.
Nevertheless, behind the scenes, in the part that hadn't been explained or probably hadn't been explained in the original story, it might be a little hard for Fujitora or Ryokugyu to be accepted by everyone since when the marines had to work hard for so many years, building their careers slowly, those two quickly became admirals, the number two positions among the Marines, which was one of the largest organization in the world.
Naturally, there must have been many who couldn't accept such a fact, and this might have been the reason why Ryokugyo attacked the Wano alone instead of coming with an army.
Or the fact that Fujitora only had one ship when he went to help in the Dressrosa.
After all, if it was someone else, it wouldn't be weird to bring so many ships, right?
However, this competition changed everything.
The strong have everything.
The strong were respected.
If someone won this tournament, no one could say anything, even if any of them became an admiral in exchange for the deceased Kizaru.
"By the way, there is no requirement here..." Brook was surprised.
"So, anyone can join this tournament?" Perona asked.
"No, if you are a pirate, then you can't, but if you're not, then it will be okay."
As long as one wasn't a pirate, then one could join this tournament, but that meant that even if they were an underworld member or a gangster, it was all okay, but a pirate wasn't allowed.
"Ah, then, Moria-sama can't join then..." Perona sighed, which made the three roll their eyes.
Nevertheless, when Masa looked up, his gaze met Carina's, who made a charming smile toward him.
"Masa, let's join this tournament."
"Okay."
Masa felt that it was good to become an admiral, so no one would bother him again, considering his reputation. More importantly, if he had a business, then no one would bother him as trying to attack his business meant that they would antagonize him and the entire Marines as he was part of the largest armed organization in the world.
"Y-You are going to become an admiral?!" 2x
Still, his decision shocked Perona and Brook.
"It's fun, right?"
"Horororo, that's true~!"
"Hyohoho, this has become more interesting!"
If Masa became an admiral, then there was no doubt they would have good backing.
Yet, as Masa had made up his decision, Blueno, the owner of the bar, who was being entirely booked by Masa, shook his head softly, thinking that they were all hopeless.
Admiral?
It might be possible for Masa to become an admiral in the dream.
Unlike others, as an agent of the government, Blueno knew how high the position of the admiral was, and he knew only the strong could get it.
Yes, Masa might be wealthy, but with how young this guy was, could he match those old monsters who had trained themselves and made many, many achievements?
Heck, if Blueno wished to, he should be able to take down all of them.
'But, a living skeleton, huh?'
As expected, Blueno was dumbfounded when he saw Brook, but his training as an agent made him able to calm down in any situation. Even if he was shocked inwardly, his face didn't change, and he just continued to wipe the glass with the towel cleanly and quietly.
Nevertheless, there was no doubt that this announcement surprised many people, as no one expected that the Marines would choose their admiral based on their strength.
Still, this also excited many, especially those who believed in their strength.
"Hahaha? Admiral? Isn't that interesting? I will join!"
"Idiot! You are a pirate! A pirate can't join this tournament!"
"It's fine. I don't have a bounty!"
"Those idiots... do they think that everything is so simple?"
"Being an admiral isn't easy."
While there were many stupid people, there were also many smart people.
Many thought that this was a chance, and others only felt curious, wondering who would win this tournament.
Yet, unexpectedly, this tournament brought confidence to the Marines since the strongest was the one that would be chosen, and anyone could join as long as they weren't a pirate, which was a good thing.
"Hm..."
A certain man with blind eyes appeared surprised, then to be in deep thought within a gambling place as he heard the talk of many people about the tournament.
"Eh? Will you let me go? Admiral? Okay, leave everything to me!"
In a certain jail within the Taya Kingdom, an agent of the government, CP, went to visit a man and was ready to let this beast go for the tournament, which made this man happy and showed his deep respect toward the World Government.
Similarly, in many places, many started their own plans, either ready to join or just watch the tournament that was about to begin.
"Zehahaha, the Marines sure do something interesting."
Unfortunately, he was a pirate, and frankly, no pirates would come since this could be a trap to catch all of them.
Alternatively, unless one was confident that no one knew about their pirate or criminal ability, no one would think of going to this tournament since all of them thought that this was a trap to catch all of them in one go.
Yet, Sengoku was serious about holding this tournament.
Looking at all the vice-admirals before him, he said, "I have given you the chance. If you lose, then it means that you are not fit to become an admiral, but even so, I hope one of you wins, so do your best!"
"YES, FLEET ADMIRAL!"
The great battle was about to start; the Marines made a change that no one expected.
The loss of Kizaru didn't cause the Marines to succumb and become weaker. Instead, it brought them greater strength!
Still, let's return to Water 7 once again as Perona looked at Masa, who had been reading, which made her curious. "By the way, Masa, what have you been reading? It's like a machine."
"It's a blueprint."
"Blueprint? For what?" Carina also started to become curious.
"An ancient weapon, Pluto."
"..." 4x
Blueno widened his eyes and almost dropped the glasses, but he held them tightly so they wouldn't notice that he had eavesdropped on their conversations.
Yet, Masa, who noticed Blueno's reaction, smiled inwardly, thinking that if he wanted to fish instead of using a fishing pole, it was better to use a net.
No, let's just use an explosion fishing, so that way, he could catch so many delicious fish ~!

"Ancient weapon...???" 3x
Carina, Perona, and Brook were dumbfounded, then looked around before they sighed in relief when Blueno didn't appear to hear their conversation.
"You idiot!"
"How could you say that here?!"
"Be careful!"
The three of them quickly scolded him, which made him speechless, yet Masa was as calm as ever since this was what he planned. He had come to Blueno's cafe since he wanted to bring all of the members of CP9 before him and clear them all in one go, devouring them without wasting his time.
Cruel?
Well, those agents never thought of others as human beings and killed anyone as long as they interrupted their missions.
If there was a reason why the CP9 members appeared gentler in the current arc, it was because Luffy and his group were powerful.
In front of Luffy's strength, they tried to maintain a good relationship, so even if they were defeated, they wouldn't be killed.
If Luffy and his group were weak, then Rob Lucci and the others would kill them without mercy.
Nevertheless, Blueno quietly listened to the conversation between the four.
"But an ancient weapon? Isn't that weapon weak, then?"
Ancient.
This word would have been linked to the past and backward, so Carina thought that it would be weak.
It was like how a stick couldn't win against a laser beam.
"While I know that it is forbidden to say this, you know that there is a 100 years void in history, right?"
"...you sure talk about something dangerous here."
"It's fine. It isn't like it is a secret, and as long as one tries to search for it, they will be able to find something."
"If that's the case, then why did you mention the void history?"
"It's just my guess, but on that void history, the level of technology might be so high that you might not be able to imagine it."
"Like what?"
"Like how you will only spend a few hours traveling from one island to another."
"...is that even possible?"
"I am not sure, but this is just a guess. Nevertheless, you can imagine how strong the ancient weapon is if I made such a comparison, right?"
"...how strong?"
"...just imagine that it can destroy an island or two with ease."
"....." 4x
"So that blueprint is...?"
"Yup." Masa nodded. "It could be something that could destroy an island or two. Heck, it can even destroy the world."
"A-Amazing!"
"That's great!"
"Hyohohoho, how scary..."
Only Brook was scared, but Carina and Perona were excited.
"Don't get excited. Do you think it is easy to build an ancient weapon, and more importantly, do you think it won't cost money to use such a weapon?"
When Masa talked about money, Carina became nervous and asked, "Well... let's say that we want to destroy an island; how much is needed?"
"Probably at least one billion belly for one shot."
"...." 4x
"Though, if it's the World Government who wants to make the shoot, it might be cheaper since it can ask their affiliated countries to send the materials and many others."
"So, you won't use it."
"We don't have that much money, after all." Masa yawned and said, "How about we go back now? Let's rest at the hotel."
"Okay." 3x
The three of them had no complaints, and they also let go of their fantasy since building an ancient weapon was simply unrealistic, whether it was the problem of funds and materials.
Masa might be able to build the ancient weapon, but it might take a long time to build, and in a world that was quite backward, unless he had all the machinery and necessary energy supplies, then it would take him a decade to build.
However, if there was enough manpower, funds, complete machinery, and all the necessary materials, it might be possible to build this weapon in a few years.
Nevertheless, as Masa and his group left, Blueno quickly reported this problem to his comrades through the secret Den Den Mushi he hid.
"Hello? Lucci and everyone, please come. I have something important to tell all of you."
"Huh?"
Blueno didn't waste his time, and at the same time, he appeared anxious since he had never expected that the wealthy guest who booked his bar would talk about the ancient weapon all of a sudden.
If his hearings weren't good, then he knew that he would miss his conversation, but fortunately, they let their guard down and never expected that he was an agent of the government.
Nevertheless, he wanted to share this news with all of his comrades as soon as possible since, at this moment, they had no need to waste their time on this island anymore.
'Come on...'
Inwardly, Blueno was anxious, wondering when all of them came, then soon, all of the agents that mixed within this island and disguised themselves in various identities came one after another.
Yet, while they wanted to complain at Blueno at the sudden notice, he made his complaint first.
"YOU ARE LATE!"
"What's wrong? Why are you so anxious?"
Everyone was confused by Blueno's outburst.
"I have found the blueprint of the ancient weapon, Pluto!"
"...huh?!"
All of them came to this island because they wanted to search for the blueprint of the ancient weapon, Pluto, which was hidden within this island, and they had stayed on this island for so many years, so they had never expected that Blueno would discover this blueprint first.
"Tell us from the begininng."
"Okay."
All of them were confused, so it was natural for them to ask for his explanation, so Blueno explained everything from the beginning to the end, yet the more they listened, the more they felt dumbfounded.
"I can tell that he is wealthy and he might be a scientist. He is accompanied by two women, which might be his women, and also one living skeleton, which might be his creation and also bodyguard."
"Huh? Living skeleton?! What do you mean? Are you dreaming, Blueno?"
"No, I also saw that perverted living skeleton."
"You did Kalifa?!"
"Did you see this group, Kalifa?"
"Yes, I did." The only female within the group nodded. "He came with his group to buy a ship. He might come from a noble family, be wealthy, and also have a deep knowledge of shipwright, so I am not surprised if he might be a scientist, too, especially if he could create such a strange creature."
Living skeleton.
Brook is treated similarly to Frankenstein, and Masa is the mad scientist who created this perverted living skeleton.
"Is there a chance that this might be a trap?"
"..."
Everyone fell silent since everything was too good to be true, after all.
They had been staying on this island for so many years and they had sacrificed many things, so when something good happened, they couldn't help but be in doubt.
Still—
"It doesn't matter."
One man suddenly expressed his thoughts. "Even if it's a trap, no one can beat us, the CP9."
Hearing those words, all of them nodded.
Yes, even if it was a trap, it didn't matter since no one thought that Masa and his group would be able to do anything against them, especially when they heard that Masa was just a young man.
Still, Blueno suddenly remembered that Masa wanted to join the "Admiral War," to become an admiral, but...
'Well, it isn't important.'
What Blueno didn't know was the most important thing since because of this, they made a mistake, thinking that their target was weak.
Nevertheless, as they had discovered their target, they weren't in a hurry, and waited until the night when all the people had rested.
At the same time, Masa, who had fun with Carina and Perona in the hotel, also walked out since his targets had also come, coming with all the crews, which was a good thing for him since he also wanted to do an experiment.
Still wearing his pajamas, Masa quietly left his room and put on his slippers, then walked toward a quiet spot as if he wanted to buy something. As expected, a group of people came out and stopped him.
Nevertheless, facing this group of people who hid their figures in oversized coats and various types of masks that hid their faces completely, Masa said, "What's wrong? Do you want to ask the way? If it's a toilet, then it is over there."
"....." Everyone.

As Masa observed the six figures before him, they also observed him.
Handsome.
Even if Masa only wore complete pajamas with a hat and put on slippers, those garments couldn't hide his charm, which made them understand why Blueno and Kalifa told them that he was memorable and it was impossible to forget him as long as they saw him.
Nevertheless, no one thought that he was strong, especially due to how young he was and his lack of reputation.
Being young, he was naturally underestimated, and those six figures never thought that they were weaker than Masa, as they had spent decades training themselves into human weapons.
Nevertheless, there was no doubt, they hated this calm attitude of his!
Be scared!
Fear us!
Yet, none of them could see anything from Masa's face, which was as calm as the lull, which made them agitated, causing one among the groups to quickly ask aggresively, "You have the blueprint of an ancient weapon, right? Give it to us and come with us. If you and your group don't want to be killed!"
Still, no one stopped this guy and all of them also agreed with the decision of this man as they emitted a murder aura to scare Masa so this guy would be obedient.
Considering Masa might know something that they didn't know and he might be a scientist too, which was a good thing since they knew how much Vegapunk needed a helper.
As long as they got custody of Masa, they could gain another merit from the World Government and stop this boring job, they thought.
Yet—
"Oh, you are the friends of the owner of the bar, huh?"
Masa looked at the others and said, "Considering all of you must be hiding your identity, you must be an agent. Let me guess..." He smiled and asked, "CP9?"
"....."
"Who are you?!"
The leader of the group looked at Masa with murderous eyes as if ready to kill Masa at any moment.
What they needed was the blueprint of the ancient weapon of Pluto.
While Masa might be a scientist, no one thought that Masa could be compared to Vegapunk, so even if they killed him, it didn't matter as long as they got the blueprint.
Yet, there was no doubt that all of them became tense as they heard their identity was heard.
"Do you want to die, mortals? I have been patient before since you have done a good job for us, but I guess my kindness isn't appreciated."
"..." 6x
Gulp!
'N-No way, right? But if it's true... no, no, no!'
Yet, if that was the truth, then it was also understandable why Masa could understand all of the mysteries of this world.
Not only was the ancient weapon a void in history but while Masa said it was easy, there weren't many who knew the fact that there was a lost history 800 years ago.
Heck, even all of the members of CP9 didn't know about those things at all!
More importantly, the aura he exuded, the etiquette, how calm he was as if he owned everything in this world, including when he faced all of them, and more importantly, the way he spent his money like it came out from the faucet, there was nothing wrong.
The identity of this person was obvious!
"Bow down, mortals!"
At that moment, even the leader of this group quickly groveled on the ground with fear, nervousness, and cold sweats on their back!
'Blueno, you bastard!'
All of them cursed Blueno within their hearts for making them threaten the god of this world, World Noble!
While no one knew why the World Noble would disguise himself as a mortal, no one doubted Masa's identity as a World Noble!
Dammit!
Even Rob Lucci, the strongest and also the most talented agent in the last 800 years, could do nothing in front of Masa and had a cold sweat on his entire body.
If Masa had told Rob Lucci to die, then Rob Lucci would have died.
Like a god, no one could fight the decision of the World Noble!
Blueno was also dumbfounded, and he understood why Masa had a harem. Rather, he felt that Masa was a good World Noble since Masa only had two women when most of the World Nobles, especially the male ones, had more than ten women, and that was the one that they weren't bored with and those they had felt bored or killed, probably couldn't be counted with their hands!
Yet, why did such a higher being come to Water 7?
Still, before all of that, Blueno knew that he might die after this!
"W-We are sorry! We never expected your presence to be among us... Please forgive us for our ignorance, but if possible, can you tell us why you are here?"
The one who asked this question was Kalifa, who had the smoothest mouth among all of them since all of the guys within this group weren't good at talking and considering Masa, who loved a woman, having her talk would do more good than not.
"Do I need to tell you what I want to do?"
"No, no! We're worried!"
All of them quickly apologized once again, but then Masa said, "But think of this as my thanks to you for your service to the World Government, so I will tell you what I am planning to do here."
"Thank you very much!"
As expected, they thought inwardly, they felt that Masa had a good impression of Kalifa and wanted to take her into his harem, which made all of them sigh in relief.
"..." Kalifa.
Well, Kalifa didn't really mind, though.
"I plan to..."
However, suddenly, Masa laughed with all of his mouth. "Hahahaha..."
"...."
Everyone was confused by his sudden outburst, but no one said anything for fear of angering him, yet Masa's next words caused them to feel an anger that they had never felt before.
"Hahaha, I never thought that you would really believe me."
Masa felt that all of them were too gullible, or was his appearance too majestic?
Was it the effect of the Supreme Haki King?
No, a certain famous pirate with red hair looked like a loser at the beginning of the original story, even if he had a Supreme King Haki, so this majestic aura of Masa had nothing to do with the Supreme Haki King.
Still, Masa felt like he could develop the Supreme Haki King to give him the aura of a higher being, he thought.
Yet, for all the members of CP9 before him were all in a daze, staring at Masa with confusion.
"W-What do you mean?"
"You are all so gullible. Do you really believe that I am a World Noble?" Masa smiled mockingly since none of them came to him with a good intention, or rather, they wanted to kill him, so why should he treat them gently?
After all, it had always been his motto to pay back those who wronged him twice, no, a hundredfold!
"How cute."
"...." Everyone.
"...then, why did you tell the truth now?"
Why is this guy telling all of this now?
If Masa said nothing, there was no doubt that all of them would know nothing and follow his whims like a slave!
While it was humiliating, there was no doubt; they had to admit that this guy was a good actor, and it was so infuriating!
"Why? It was fun, right?"
"....."
"YOU BASTARD!"
Yet, one guy was as impatient as ever, and he directly appeared in front of Masa as he made an attack.
"Shigan (Finger Pistol)!"
His index finger pointed toward Masa's body as if ready to skewer him!
Was this man going to kill Masa?
No, this man only wanted to punish Masa with the intent to torment him slowly, giving him the most humiliation for what this bastard had done!
HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU!
The man was so angry when he was made to grovel on the dirty ground toward the same mortal, which damaged his pride so much!
The rest also didn't stop the man since they could read his intention, yet Masa was surprised. However, he wasn't surprised because of the man; instead, he was surprised by the knowledge of martial arts given by the fourth Masa.
'As expected, this guy's world isn't a normal world.'
Still, Masa felt that it might be good to use this martial art in this world.
Yes, Rokushiki was good in this world, but it was because people's physical ability in this world was crazy!
If everyone had a similar physical ability, then whose martial arts were better would be different, especially when modern martial arts were created to face many situations.
Though, if they really fought each other, he could imagine that the people in One Piece would obliterate all the people in the world of the fourth Masa, he thought.
Masa wasn't sure how the fourth Masa could get this crazy martial art, but nevertheless, as the man's finger was about to pierce his chest, Masa stomped his foot into the ground, causing the earth to crack like a spider web and shake as if a bomb exploded in the area.
Everyone was startled, never expecting Masa's strength, yet Masa's attack was far from over since that moment as his left palm was in front, his right fist was pulled behind, and his entire muscles contracted, especially on his arm tendons to their absolute limit before letting go, like a spring, creating an insane amount of kinetic energy, within his punch.
The man's finger was just one cm before Masa's chest, yet Masa's punch was much faster.
It was like a ray of light, then—
The man was knocked so far away and crashed into several buildings as his entire body was bleeding profusely before falling onto the edge of the island, almost falling into the ocean, and then passing out.
At the same time, the impact and wind caused the coats and masks of the CP9 members to fly away, showing their real appearances.
Yet, none of them cared about that since the impact of Masa's punch also affected all of them greatly!
Raising their fists to protect themselves, the explosion swallowed all of them.
'Ah, we're dying.'
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!

Rikudou.
It is an esoteric mixed martial arts style with a focus on both armed and unarmed combat. Rikudou's techniques are specifically designed around killing their opponents.
This was the martial art that had been learned by the Fourth Masa and used by Masa from One Piece in the previous chapter.
There was no problem with this technique, and it was fairly powerful, but it was developed by the Army of God based on the martial arts formerly used by members of the Communist Party army.
The Communist Party wasn't the problem; the problem was the Army of God, as it was an ultra-radical religious cult that planned to use chemical weapons to do biological terrorism and a coup d'etat to the country with a purpose for the salvation of humanity.
'...I hope that the fourth Masa is fine.'
Nevertheless, he wondered whether all of the martial arts in the world of Fourth Masa could be combined with the martial arts in the world of One Piece, DxD, and Mahouka.
While it might be his guess, the world of the fourth Masa must have deep research about martial arts, and naturally, this martial art couldn't be underestimated even though it was unable to destroy a skyscraper or an island.
If there was a reason why Garp could blast an island, it was all due to his physical ability instead of the martial arts.
In other words, if the martial artists in the world of the Fourth Masa had the physical ability of the people in the world of One Piece, then it would be crazy.
This was also the reason why Masa, this Rikudou martial art that he used previously, could blast off everything in its path, and it even blasted some weak members of the CP9, who weren't prepared for the impact of his attack.
Nevertheless, the role of the fourth Masa was clear, and that was to create the best martial arts for all of them.
However, at this moment, the group of six of CP9 had become a group of two.
Yes, only two stood up, and the rest all fell away due to Masa's "Sunder Heaven," the ultimate punch of the ultra-radical religious cult, completely wrecked as they moaned painfully and wounded by the blast of compressed air and impact.
Still, Masa felt a bit helpless when he saw the destruction that he had caused to this island.
'Well... it's all due to the World Government!'
With ease, Masa put all the blame on the World Government.
"Oh?"
Masa appeared surprised when he saw two people in the CP9 standing up slowly, yet weakly, so he couldn't help but give the two some advice, "How about you lay down? There is no point in fighting anymore, you know?"
While in the original arc, Luffy and his group might be troubled by CP9, in Masa's eyes, they were just so-so. At best, they were mid or about the vice-admiral levels, and it was impossible for them to reach an admiral level.
Well, Rob Lucci might have a chance, but with his Devil Fruit?
Unless Rob Lucci had an ability like Masa's, his fate was already clear.
Nevertheless, Rob Lucci and Kaku fell into silence, and their expressions were solemn; they clearly felt the danger that they hadn't felt before.
This guy was hiding his power, they thought.
Unlike Masa's previous harmless and gentle aura, which was like gentle sunshine during the day, at this moment, he was like a gigantic sun that would burn those who got close to him.
If they did nothing and just remained in disguise, pretending to know nothing then nothing would happen, yet they were too close to the sun, burnt, like Icarus, before dying.
More importantly, they knew their chance to defeat this guy was as good as zero.
Yet—
"Kaku, can you fight?"
"Haha." Kaku laughed and took out two swords that he had hidden on his back. "I am the best swordsman in CP9! How can I lose just like that? Come on! Fight me, Lucci!"
"It's you who should follow my lead!"
Unlike Kaku, who was wounded, strangely enough, Lucci's wounds started to heal, and his body grew larger as he turned into a monster.
No, it should be a gigantic humanoid leopard, a monstrous creature that brought terror to those who saw him.
Neko Neko no Mi, Model: Leopard.
Masa's eyes were focused on Lucci, and he tried to observe this genius agent, who was known as the most talented within 800 years.
Still, the genius aside, he was more cornered about the ability of this Devil Fruit, and at the same time, he tried to use the ability of the House of Vapula.
Would it work?
After all, Lucci had gained the DNA of a feline-type related creature, so Masa should be able to control him, right?
Then, as expected—
Lucci suddenly lost control over his body as if he were a mindless doll under the ability of Masa of DxD.
If it had been two years later, Lucci might not be as helpless as now, but there is no "if" in this world.
At the same time, two years later, Masa would also become even stronger.
"COME ON, LUCCI! ATTACK WITH ME!"
As Kaku announced his intention to attack, he leaped, moving so fast that it was as if he had disappeared before suddenly appearing at the top of the sky as if he was flying.
Geppo (Moon Step)!
This was one of the ultimate martial arts of the World Government that allowed a mortal to soar into the sky!
Yet, this wasn't the end, as Kaku suddenly held his two swords, and his legs were pulled as if he were ready to kick Masa, who was in the distance.
This should be impossible since there was a huge distance between them, so how could Kaku attack Masa?
"Rankyaku (Tempest Kick!)!"
As his voice fell, countless compressed air blades were shot in Masa's direction, ready to slash him to death!
Yes, similar to Geppo, Rankyaku was part of the Rokushiki, which allowed the user to send a powerful, sharp, compressed blade of wind by kicking!
Moreover, Kaku was also a talented swordsman, and he was able to send compressed blades of wind with his swords.
However, Masa was also a swordsman.
"Huh?!" Kaku was dumbfounded when he saw Masa suddenly holding a black katana, which was as dark as an abyss, and at that moment, he shuddered, realizing this guy was even stronger than he had imagined!
Run away!
This was on Kaku's mind when he saw Masa take out his blade, yet it was too late.
Also, why didn't Rob Lucci join him to attack Masa?!
Nevertheless, under the bombardments of Kaku, Masa was as calm as the surface of the water and held his sword in a sword in Iai-stance, then—
Click!
No one saw when Masa drew his sword, but after that click sound, all of Kaku's compressed blades were cut down, including Kaku's body, into half before he fell into the ground, leaving only Lucci, who was still living, as he was under the control of Masa.
'My fourth Devil Fruit.'
Was it the right choice?
Masa couldn't help but ask this question since there was no doubt there were many better Devil Fruits than this Neko Neko no Mi, Model: Leopard.
However, if their assumption was correct, then they would be able to develop this Devil Fruit further.
Or rather, if they couldn't do it, they could use the power of Jake Jake no Mi to devour Manticore and Griffon in the world of DxD.
As for the Sphinx, it was too ugly, so Masa didn't plan to do anything with it.
'More importantly, the Nemean Lion.'
This was his target, and the reason why he wanted to devour this Devil Fruit was because he wanted to evolve it into Neko Neko no Mi, Model: Nemean Lion.
Why the Nemean Lion?
It was because he was a Devil of the House of Vapula; if he was a Devil of the House of Furcas, he would get a horse-type of Devil Fruit.
Still, as a Devil of the House of Vapula, all the feline-type creatures would be under his control, and it would definitely be easy for him to develop this type of Zoan into an "Awakening" state without being afraid of his conscious being affected by the conscious of the creature within the Zoan type of Devil Fruit.
So, Masa didn't hesitate at that moment.
It was too troublesome to go after Who's-Who as it was too far away, so—
There was no fight or what over the moment Rob Lucci ate the Neko Neko no Mi, Model: Leopard; he was as good as a slave in Masa DxD's innate ability.
So, letting out a helpless sigh, Masa devoured his fourth Devil Fruit.
