Chapter 24 The Legacy and Division of the Loot of Rocks
Chapter 24 The Legacy and Division of the Loot of Rocks
Looking again at the four bubbles floating in mid-air, Kaido asked again.
"Lingling, which box do you want to open this time?"
Charlotte Linlin looked around with her beautiful eyes, thinking carefully.
"Let's open the left one first! I think the left one is more valuable!"
"Uro ro ro..."
Kaido chuckled, destroyed the bubble slightly to the left of center, and reached out to catch the treasure chest.
"It's very light, extremely light! And there's a rolling sound inside."
Kaido's words made Charlotte Linlin's heart skip a beat, but she ultimately chose to trust her intuition.
Without keeping them waiting long, Kaido opened the treasure chest directly.
Glug glug...
There were eight permanent pointers rolling inside the treasure chest, with a Devil Fruit encyclopedia at the very bottom.
"Mommy, Omnipotent Poseidon? And a Devil Fruit encyclopedia?"
Charlotte Linlin was stunned and didn't react immediately.
"What did Rocks mean by putting these things in the treasure chest?"
Kaido had some suspicions, but he needed to confirm them.
He reached into the treasure chest and picked up the permanent pointer to examine it.
As expected, all of these pointers were engraved with the names of the islands.
Unfortunately, Kaido didn't recognize seven of them until he finally recognized the last one.
"Hehehe! Lingling, you really are something! You guessed right again this time!"
"Huh?!" Charlotte Linlin still didn't understand. "What do you mean?"
Kaido showed Charlotte Linlin the side of his permanent pointer that was engraved with text.
"Sleeping Ancient Town!"
"As far as I know, there seems to be a legend about the Mythical Zoan type Vampire Fruit on that island!"
Upon hearing this, Charlotte Linlin's eyes lit up, and her spirits instantly lifted.
"You mean... this whole box of permanent pointers all point to the island where the Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits are located?!"
"They may not all be mythical beasts."
Kaido picked up the Devil Fruit encyclopedia that was placed at the bottom of the treasure chest and looked through it.
Ignore everything else for now and find the page about the Vampire Fruit.
Sure enough, there was a red circle drawn on this page.
Not yet understanding what the red circle meant, Kaido carefully flipped through the Devil Fruit encyclopedia again from beginning to end.
One minute later, Kaido came to a conclusion.
"Rocks must have circled all the powerful fruits he had collected and whose locations he knew in this encyclopedia."
"Then, based on the final results of the field investigation, mark an 'x' or a '√' in this circle."
"The person who drew the 'x' has most likely gathered false information."
“Those marked with a '√' should all be Devil Fruits that have been successfully obtained.”
"For example, my Azure Dragon Fruit and the Paw-Paw Fruit that brat from God Valley ate both have a checkmark drawn inside the circle."
"Then, these eight remaining permanent pointers should be the islands that Lox hasn't had time to investigate yet."
After hearing Kaido's explanation, Charlotte Linlin finally understood.
"So that's how it is."
Then, a smile returned to her face.
"Mommy, it seems my intuition was really accurate!"
"Uro ro ro..."
Kaido smiled noncommittally.
Put the encyclopedia entries you've already viewed back into the treasure chest, close the chest, and toss it directly to Charlotte Linlin.
"You can see for yourself which fruits and islands these permanent pointers point to. I'm going to continue collecting the remaining three treasure chests."
"Mommy, no problem!"
A few minutes later, all three treasure chests were collected.
Based on its floating position, the treasures stored inside are as follows:
The treasure chest on the right side of the middle contains countless manuals for swordsmanship and knife techniques, as well as the Six Styles, Life Return, the Three Colors of Haki, and Rocks's "Overlord" technique training manual.
In short, this box contains the true legacy of Rocks's strength.
Kaido looked at the illustrated manuals and notes, and couldn't help but lick his lips in excitement.
That's exactly what he needs right now!
Although he is a transmigrator, his system can't directly improve his strength.
Therefore, all his combat skills to date are practical experience gained from battlefield combat, plus what he learned by watching the battles of Rocks, Whitebeard, and others.
It can be said that Kaido's current fighting skills are completely unsystematic, a purely unorthodox approach that relies entirely on numerical superiority.
Charlotte Linlin was a little better than him, but not by much.
Most of his skills are self-created or learned by others.
now!
With such a large box of cultivation manuals.
They can then properly start from scratch, sort out, adjust, and improve their combat system.
"This is valuable! It must be carefully preserved!!"
Kaido waved his hand and put the entire box of secret manuals and notes into his system inventory.
"Huh?! What's going on?! It's filled with holy crap!!"
Kaido exclaimed in surprise.
He had known about his system inventory for a long time.
Each backpack slot can only hold one item.
Unless they are of the same kind.
Examples include freshwater, wine, rice, oranges, gold, and the same type of wood.
There is no limit to the number of items of the same type that can be stored, but different types must be stored separately.
These cultivation manuals, though essentially books, were classified as different types of items by the system because of their contents, and thus quickly filled up all the remaining space in the system's inventory.
Unfortunately, Kaido couldn't possibly use that many backpack spaces to store books.
After a brief moment of thought, he ultimately chose to store the most important books—the Six Styles, Life Return, the Three Colors of Haki, and Rocks's "Overlord" technique training manual—in his system inventory.
The rest were put back into the treasure chest and carried outside.
With a slightly melancholy sigh, Kaido looked at the last two treasure chests again.
The one on the far left is filled with gold coins; a rough count reveals at least tens of thousands of them.
The one on the far right contains three ordinary Zoan-type Devil Fruits.
These items are far less valuable than the three treasure chests from before.
However, if we consider it as the seed money Rocks prepared for Kaido, it is indeed a considerable amount.
"Hmm... Did Rocks foresee his fate before he went to God Valley?"
A strange light flashed in Kaido's eyes.
These things don't look like a spur-of-the-moment legacy at all.
It seems that from the very beginning, Rocks did not have high expectations for the God Valley War he launched.
"Hehehe... Now it's all my fault!"
Kaido smiled and then waved his hand to create a hollow ice ball.
Stuff all the treasure chests that are inconvenient to put in the system inventory, or that need to be divided up later, into this hollow ice ball.
Seeing this, Charlotte Linlin also stuffed the treasure chest in her hand into the hollow ice ball.
Then, just like when we entered this underwater cave before.
Kaido created a second hollow ice ball, encasing Charlotte Linlin and the others, then placed both ice balls in his dragon mouth and dived back the way he came.
Whoosh!
The Azure Dragon burst forth from the water and transformed into Kaido in human form mid-air.
Boom!
The 10-meter-diameter ice puck exploded, and Charlotte Linlin and her three companions stepped on thunderclouds.
After everyone landed on the ground.
Kaido broke open the small ice ball, took out four treasure chests from it, and began to officially divide the spoils.
"First, there are three Devil Fruits, all of them are ordinary Zoan-type. One for each of you. Just pick one that you like."
The treasure chest containing the Devil Fruits was opened, and Charlotte Linlin and Longbread did not stand on ceremony.
Each person reached out and picked one at random, regardless of what kind of fruit it was.
"Then there's this box of gold coins."
The treasure chest containing gold coins was opened, and Kaido poured them out, counting each coin carefully.
"A total of 30,000 gold coins, 10,000 for each person, any objections?"
"no!"
Charlotte Linlin and Longbread took their 10,000 gold coins again.
Then the two of them threw the gold coins back to Kaido.
"It's inconvenient to carry it with me right now, so I'll leave it with you for now, and the same goes for this Devil Fruit!"
Kaido put all the gold coins and Devil Fruits they handed him into his system inventory, and then placed his two large hands on the last two treasure chests whose value was beyond measure.
"I'm the captain! Both of them are mine, any objections?"
Charlotte Linlin shrugged indifferently, "Whatever."
Anyway, she and Kaido are one.
The long loaf of bread also casually spread its hands out.
“I’m 54 years old this year. It’s pointless to argue with you anymore, and I can’t beat you now.”
His only goal now is to be a good adoptive father and head chef for Kaido and Charlotte Linlin, so that when he can no longer walk in the future, he won't end up with a miserable old age.
Selene sat to the side, watching the three divide the spoils with a hint of envy.
She didn't care about the gold coins and fruit.
However, she was genuinely tempted by Lox's training manuals.
After all, she was also a swordsman. Even if her style was different from Rocks', as the saying goes, the ultimate goal is the same no matter how many paths one takes. Those notes must have something for her to learn from and grow from.
Unfortunately, her current status disqualifies her from sharing the spoils.
Kaido noticed Selene's envy and glanced at her sideways.
Putting aside the dislike he felt for this female Celestial Dragon because of her identity, he actually had a good impression of her as a person.
Except for the initial time when he was arrested, he remained very rational, neither making a fuss nor thinking about escaping.
After sleeping with someone, their loyalty to them continues to rise.
Now, they're all over 80!
It's important to know that the loyalty level assigned by the system is such that outsiders can only reach a maximum of 99 points. Once it exceeds 90, people can entrust their lives to each other.
Her loyalty score of over 80 is indeed quite high.
Moreover, although the journey has been short, she has indeed tried her best to demonstrate her intelligence and provide assistance to herself.
Thinking of this, Kaido walked up to Selene, sat cross-legged, and stared directly into the woman's eyes.
"Selene, shall we have a formal talk?"
