I Became the Strongest Villain in One Piece

Chapter 274: SVOP: Chapter 274

As the circulation continued, his blood and qi were vigorous, like flames that could burn fiercely.

”What vigorous life force... Blood regeneration is indeed not just talk.”

Vladimir could clearly feel that every drop of blood within him contained a life force far exceeding that of ordinary people.

He even felt that if he were to spit out a mouthful of blood, the sheer vitality within it could likely make steel glow red.

”And it’s already three-star level upon activation, saving a lot of effort compared to the Archangel!”

The Holy Archangel transformation, upon activation, had consumed 3 Devil Fruits, and reaching three-star level later required an additional 8.

In comparison, the Great Demon King transformation was a bargain.

After studying it for some time, Vladimir had come to understand that the activation of new transformations generally fluctuated between one and three stars. The specific star level was unpredictable and depended on luck.

There was a small chance of one star, a small chance of three stars, and a eighty to ninety percent probability of two stars.

”However, I haven’t absorbed enough fear yet. I’m nowhere near my peak state.”

Shaking his head, Vladimir emerged from the lake. ”Let’s examine the three abilities first.”

The first, Dream Invasion, Vladimir had already used thousands of times. He couldn’t say he had completely mastered it, but he was quite proficient, at 967%.

The second, Scale of Fear. This ability was simple: once the opponent felt fear in their heart, their combat power would rapidly decrease.

Even for Logia-type ability users, if the emotion of fear reached a certain threshold, Vladimir could make them lose their abilities. Their fluid forms would be meaningless against the ”Scale of Fear.”

In the dream, the moment Sengoku felt a shred of fear, Vladimir immediately began to erode the dream, becoming a half-dream master. He had achieved this by relying on this ability, though he hadn’t known its specific name at the time and had acted on instinct.

As for the third ability, Demon King’s Body, this was the Great Demon King’s most powerful ability currently!

”Demon King’s Body... my skin, even in its natural state, is incredibly tough. Even the slashes of a master swordsman would likely have difficulty harming me!”

At most, it would leave a mark. Generally, if a master swordsman attacked him, Vladimir could stand still and take the hits, and it would be of no consequence.

The bones within his body were even more terrifying. Vladimir felt that very few people in the world could break through his defenses.

In terms of defense alone, the three-star Great Demon King surpassed the four-star Sea Dragon!

The four-star Sea Dragon needed to burn its true dragon blood to shatter Hawk Eyes’ slashes, but the Fearful Great Demon King could probably destroy them with a single slap.

”Such a powerful transformation has only one drawback...”

Vladimir murmured softly. ”The Fearful Great Demon King’s true form is not human. Maintaining this human form requires a constant consumption of fear energy. The fear contributed by Sengoku was largely depleted earlier. At most, it will last for two or three days before this body collapses again.”

However, this was easily solvable. He just needed to find some unfortunate soul to bully.

”Forget it, let’s leave Dragon Island for now. I’ll go to Kaido’s place and collect my debt!”

Thinking this, Vladimir’s mind stirred.

Instantly, his back bones underwent a change. A tingling sensation spread, and with a poof, a pair of demonic wings suddenly unfurled.

The next moment, Vladimir leaped into the air.

Compared to the Archangel’s supersonic speed, the Great Demon King’s flight speed was naturally inferior. Of course, it was slightly better than the Sea Dragon’s, as the Sea Dragon was even less adept at flying.

A black silhouette streaked across the sky, instantly leaving Dragon Island far behind.

Many flying dragons on the island watched in unison. At this moment, they couldn’t help but feel relieved.

This great demon had finally left. Unfortunately, the strange sea area surrounding Dragon Island had disappeared. Now, Dragon Island was completely exposed to the sea. It was estimated that unlucky ships would arrive here soon...

...

It was impossible to determine one’s location at sea, but for Vladimir, that was not an issue.

He summoned the Sea Dragon, read the ocean current data underwater, and immediately knew where he was.

He was in a sea area near the Calm Belt. Further out was the West Blue, and inward was the convergence of Kaido’s territory and the chaotic seas. It was quite close.

Having determined the direction, Vladimir immediately flew onward.

Two days later.

New World, Kaido’s territory.

Vladimir had flown non-stop for two days and finally approached Kaido’s stronghold in the New World.

”Hmm?”

Suddenly, he slowed his flight speed and looked down from high above.

Below, on the sea, a massive ship was sailing slowly, a pirate flag hanging from its mast.

He had seen many pirate crews during his flight, so it wasn’t strange. However, the flag hanging below belonged to the Kaido Pirates.

”To run into them like this, perfect!” With a thought, Vladimir immediately dived down.

Simultaneously, on the pirate ship below, a pirate suddenly looked up, squinting. ”Captain Jack, is something flying this way?”

”What is it?”

The person speaking had a deep, gruff voice. He was 2.45 meters tall, even taller than Vladimir’s Great Demon King transformation.

This person had a ponytail and two braided pigtails. His physique was robust and strong. He wore a metal jaw and two ivory-like ornaments on his head and shoulders, respectively.

As this person spoke, he was also swinging a 10-ton barbell with one hand. The massive barbell, in his hand, moved up and down with ease, like a wooden stick.

”It’s already here. It’s coming towards us. It’s a human, with wings...”

As the pirate spoke, a figure had already approached rapidly, and in a short moment, had arrived at the bow of the ship.

Only then did everyone get a clear look: an evil man with wings on his back and horns on his head.

The man appeared to be in his mid-to-late twenties, tall, with well-developed muscles.

Flying at the bow of the ship, he stood with his arms crossed, calmly staring at them.

”Who are you?” Captain Jack, who was called Jack, stopped his workout and slowly turned around. ”You have business with the Kaido Pirates?”

Since the person dared to fly right up to them, Jack surmised that he was no ordinary individual, so he didn’t make a move immediately.

”Kaido isn’t here?”

Vladimir’s gaze swept over them. He couldn’t sense Kaido’s presence. Only then did he say, ”Are you Jack, the Drought, one of the Three Disasters?”
