Man in Pirates: Robin is my cousin? Chapter 100

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering a life choice mission!]

[The host forcefully took a famous sword, causing the Navy sister’s Dao Heart to be on the verge of shattering. Faced with Tashigi’s anger, as a very good person, should the host compensate her?]

[Option 1: Compensate for nothing! Returning the sword to her is already giving the Navy face!

Reward: 1000 experience points!]

[Option 2: You are emotionally intelligent. Give Tashigi a few pointers as compensation.

Reward: 1000 experience points!]

[Option 3: Compensate Tashigi with a good sword!

Reward: Random experience points (determined by the quality of the compensated sword)!]

Hiss…

Originally, Ranpo mainly came to return Gion’s Twenty-One O Wazamono. He only casually returned Tashigi’s.

He didn’t expect that Tashigi’s resentment towards him would trigger a system mission.

Her Dao Heart isn’t firm enough.

“Cough cough, Navy girl, don’t be so agitated. I’m here to return your sword.”

Ranpo pondered. Besides Gion’s and Tashigi’s swords, the remaining six were all snatched from pirates. He was too lazy to return them, so he might as well give them all to Tashigi.

This way, he might even get more rewards.

After all, they were six Ryo Wazamono, considered small treasures.

“Then give it back!”

Tashigi held her sword, pointing it at Ranpo. Her eyes glared fiercely from behind her gleaming glasses.

“Which one was yours? Oh… if I remember correctly, it should be this one, right?”

Ranpo took out all six swords and, relying on his memory, pulled out Tashigi’s treasured sword.

“Girl, don’t be angry. I’m a very good person, and I have quite a bit of research on swords. Your sword is good; I’ll process it for you.”

He had originally thought of giving the remaining six swords to Tashigi, but upon closer thought, they weren’t Saijo O Wazamono. Even all six combined probably wouldn’t yield many rewards.

“What do you want to do?! Don’t mess with my sword!”

Tashigi’s expression immediately became tense when she saw Ranpo holding her treasured sword, fearing that Ranpo would damage her sword.

Ranpo gripped the hilt, and extreme Busoshoku Haki缠绕 (entwined) around the blade. The air surged, and black lightning bolts transformed into roaring thunder dragons, circling the blade.

The jet-black blade seemed to captivate the soul, making Tashigi stare at it without blinking.

“Such powerful Haki!”

Ranpo frowned as he looked at the blade. “Is it not enough?”

His Haki surged, and vast Busoshoku Haki continued to flow into the blade, entangling, compressing, condensing, and permanently sealing!

The sharp aura pushed Tashigi back.

After an estimated few minutes, Ranpo felt that more than half of his Haki had been depleted before he stopped.

Withdrawing his Haki, a dark long sword was in his hand. He casually swung it in the air, and black lightning bolts shot out from the blade, leaving several charred cracks on the ground.

“It’s done!”

“Here, seeing how angry you are, I’ll give you a black blade. Now you know I’m a very good person, right?”

He tossed the freshly forged black blade to Tashigi.

Tashigi frantically dropped the ordinary long sword in her hand and caught her treasured sword.

She dazedly touched the blade, muttering, “How is this possible? Is it really a black blade?!”

The only black blade she had truly seen was the treasured sword of the world’s strongest swordsman, Dracule Mihawk. Besides that, she had never seen a second black blade.

How could a black blade be forged so simply?!

She felt her understanding of the world had been overturned.

Although her treasured sword was only a Ryo Wazamono, once it became a black blade, it instantly became comparable to a Saijo O Wazamono.

Even Saijo O Wazamono are not as rare as black blades.

There are twelve Saijo O Wazamono, but not that many black blades.

“Ah~”

Ranpo yawned, feeling a bit tired. One black blade almost drained his Haki. No wonder there are so few in the world.

His Busoshoku Haki had already reached max level, allowing him to condense a black blade in such a short time.

For anyone else, it would probably take a lifetime to cultivate a black blade.

“A bit tired. Navy girl, I’ve returned the sword. Take these few as well. I’m leaving now.”

As soon as his voice fell, Ranpo’s figure instantly vanished from the spot.

“Wait!”

Tashigi came back to her senses, wanting to thank him, but when she looked up, Ranpo’s figure had already disappeared.

She didn’t expect such a sudden surprise. This was a black blade!

He just gave it away?! Could he really be a good person?

It seems she needs to find an opportunity to thank him next time.

Although a black blade cultivated by oneself is the most suitable, she was self-aware. She probably wouldn’t be able to achieve something like cultivating a black blade in her lifetime.

Not just her, but among all the swordsmen in the world, how many can cultivate a black blade?

Getting a black blade for free probably used up all her luck for this lifetime.

Tashigi gripped the brand new black blade and fiercely slashed at a nearby iron stake. A black lightning bolt shot out from the dark blade, easily shattering the iron stake.

“Sugoi!”

The extreme destructive power turned the iron stake into dust. This was the power of a black blade.

Moreover, the black blade Ranpo gave her didn’t reject her.

Logically, she should have to spend some time adapting to and taming this black blade.

But due to Ranpo’s absolute control over Haki, and because this sword was originally Tashigi’s treasured sword, she was able to use it easily.

Looking at the wanted poster that had turned into dust along with the iron stake, Tashigi suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.

“Hmm! I’ll apologize next time!”

…

Outside, back on the Black Emperor, Rayleigh and Luffy had also finished their business and could withdraw.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for compensating Tashigi with a black blade + six Ryo Wazamono, receiving the reward of a fine Modao + 10, 000 experience points!]

A notification sound came from his mind, and Ranpo was startled.

Modao?

He seemed to have heard it somewhere?

Ranpo’s thoughts stirred, and a long sword, over three meters in length, appeared in his hand.

The hilt was cylindrical, about 1.4 meters long.

The blade was about twenty centimeters wide, entirely black, with a silver-white cutting edge that gleamed with cold light.

Ranpo lifted his hand. This Modao probably weighed around a hundred pounds.

He casually performed a few moves and was very satisfied.

A man plays with a big sword.

“I won’t have to snatch other people’s swords anymore.”

After playing with it for a while, Ranpo put the Modao away.

He usually wouldn’t need it for fights, but if some swordsman wanted to challenge him, he could certainly pull it out and show off a bit.

Just the appearance of this sword alone was enough to intimidate enemies!

Piloting the Black Emperor, Ranpo sent Rayleigh and Luffy back to Sabaody Archipelago, then drifted on the sea, pondering his pirate path.

“Oh, right! System, didn’t you give me a Devil Fruit, and also activated some partner module?”

Ranpo suddenly remembered the rewards he received for choosing to become a pirate.

[Ding! The Devil Fruit has been placed in the system space. The Partner Roulette has been activated. Please explore it yourself!]
