It won't be long before Shanks leaves the East Blue. Blaize wants to have one last battle with him before he loses his left arm.
And, this time he's going to fight him after letting his Haki attribute cross the '50' bar limit.
In these ten months, he didn't reveal his devil fruit power to Shanks as utilizing it will hinder his Haki training. He will use it after entering the New World.
After thinking through, Blaize added '5' free attribute points to his Haki attribute directly raising them to '50.3'. Closing his eyes, he felt the change.
It was addictive, the feeling of power. The major change came from his Haki reserve, they doubled. The next thing he noted is the quality of his spiritual energy.
They were more refined and clear, which increased his Haki control. His entire presence changed as his Haki metamorphosed to a whole new level.
For the first time, he felt close to his spiritual energy and had perfect control over it. The transformation evolved his Armament, Observation, and Conqueror's Haki.
Before he could check the changes, a notification rang in his mind.
[~ Alert: The host's strength reached the standard for the system upgrade. The upgrade is in progress...Please wait... ~]
Blaize was surprised as he didn't expect his system to upgrade suddenly. 'Is it because all my attributes crossed the '50' bar limit?'
His support system didn't take a lot of time, after what seemed like 5 minutes, it was fully upgraded. A new interface surfaced in his mind.
[~ Name: Blaize Hunt
Occupation: Marine
Constitution: 57.1
Devil Fruit Potential: 51.2
Haki: 50.3
Free attribute point: 4.8 ~]
Nothing changed in the status panel, his Taskbar is empty as there are no tasks while there are some changes in the Achievement tab.
Usually, Blaize won't check the achievement tab as most of the achievements mentioned are not something that he can complete now.
But now, he noticed some adjustments as he clicked the achievement tab. There are new achievements added with different rewarding options while some old ones had some changes.
What surprised him most is, there are even other rewards aside from attribute points. Blaize checked them one by one.
The first few achievements are related to his occupation as a Marine. Some of them are,
[~ Achievement: Become a Rear Admiral.
Reward: +1.0 Constitution +1.0 Devil Fruit potential +1.0 Free attribute point. ~]
[~ Achievement: Become a Vice Admiral.
Reward: +2.0 Haki +2.0 Free attribute point. ~]
[~ Achievement: Become an Admiral.
Reward: +3.0 Constitution +3.0 Devil Fruit potential +3.0 Haki +3.0 Free attribute point. ~]
[~ Achievement: Become a Fleet Admiral.
Reward: +5.0 Free attribute point +1 Lucky Draw ~]
The rewards were a little different from what he noticed the last time. The major change is the Lucky Draw and it's also what caught his attention.
There was a small note regarding the Lucky Draw from the system. [~ Lucky Draw: Using this function, the Host can obtain anything that's not limited to the Host's current world.
Example: Weapons, abilities of other worlds, life-saving tokens, a chance to traverse another world, and so on. ~]
"Wow..." Blaize was on cloud nine reading the description. 'So I can travel to the other anime worlds...'
Stifling his zeal, he looked at the other achievements to see if there are other Lucky draws. Aside from the one he saw, there were two more.
[~ Achievement: Claim the title 'Strongest Man in the World'
Reward: +5.0 Free attribute point +1 Lucky Draw ~]
[~ Achievement: Dethrone the World Government.
Reward: +10.0 Free attribute point +1 Lucky Draw ~]
Seeing the Achievements, Blaize knew he won't be able to obtain the Lucky Draw anytime soon. Whether it's dethroning World Government, becoming fleet Admiral, or defeating whitebeard none of them are easy to accomplish!
He wasn't too concerned about this as he will eventually become stronger, so he looked at other achievements with untroubled expression.
Defeating or capturing pirates above 300 Million and below 1 Billion bounties would yield him '0.5 - 1' free attribute points. At the same time, any pirate or pirate crew worth over 1 Billion Bounty gives him 2.0 Free attribute points.
The rewards are different for defeating Yonko!
[~ Achievement: Challenge and Defeat Sakazuki[Akainu]
Reward: +3.0 Devil Fruit potential +2.0 Free attribute point. ~]
The rewards are the same for Kuzan and Borsalino. Aside from them, there are rewards for defeating Garp and Sengoku. There are also other achievements but we will talk about them later.
Blaize closed the achievement tab and sighed. The attribute points were reduced in most cases, it would be hard to earn them from now on.
Even so, with his current strength, it won't be a problem for him to complete some of them.

Next day,
Blaize's going to challenge Shanks today. He didn't know when the latter will lose his arm and leave East Blue but it will happen within one month.
Current year: 5th month of 1512,
Blaize and Shanks met at the uninhabited island situated a few kilometers away from Dawn Island and battled for the last time. It was a fierce battle as Blaize used everything aside from his devil fruit power.
Blaize's sudden increase in strength caught Shanks off guard. It was also the first time that he was forced to use his entire strength.
Shanks's strength is overwhelming and devastating as a swing of his sword cleaved the entire Island!
Blaize was compelled to use his attribute points, once again. He raised his constitution attribute from 57.1 to 60.1 using 3 free attribute points.
Only then he was able to barely fight on par against Shanks. Their battle lasted for an entire day and night with neither winning over the other.
The entire island they fought on has been destroyed completely, nothing remained to prove their existence. It's a small island and thankfully it's uninhabited.
The next day when Shanks came back to the Foosha village, he was in tatters with bruises and small cuts all over his body.
His worn-out appearance drew everyone's attention. Especially the Red hair pirate crew, they couldn't believe their eyes. Only they know how powerful their Chief is!
Benn Beckman squinted his eyes while others showed a concerned look.
"Boss, what happened?" Lucky Roux asked. If it was any other time, they would usually laugh but now they couldn't.
Shanks, who was silent the entire time suddenly laughed aloud. Seeing this, the others also laughed along with him.
"Boss, you really got us this time. We thought you were feeling low." Yasopp commented.
