Chapter 120

The old man was very tired.

"Huh...wait, wait a minute, sister, I'm almost...tired..." Qiyue lay on the ground, the wooden sword in her hand was no longer stable, and her thin plain clothes were completely wet with sweat.

Since she was discovered last time, Qiyue's life has been in hell mode. Every day is either training or training. Physical training is okay, but she will faint from exhaustion, but sword training is terrible. Every time she is beaten half to death by Yayoi, and now there are many places on her body.

If Yukiko trained her, it would be easier.

"Is this enough?" Yayoi asked in a cold voice. She only asked July to run 100 laps around the deck of the Death Star with weights, do 1,000 squats and 1,000 sword swings, and swim 10 kilometers with the Death Star. Is that a lot?

Running around the Death Star for one lap is about 576 meters, and 100 laps is 57.6 kilometers. This amount of exercise is not a big deal for Yayoi, but it is a lot for July. There is also weights...

These are just the amount of exercise for one morning. In the afternoon, it is sword fighting.

Originally, Yayoi planned to punish July by not allowing her to eat if she failed to complete the task, but fortunately Xia Lin stopped her. He felt that this kind of punishment was really unnecessary. Exercise is to consume a person's physical strength. If she is not allowed to eat, the two-way consumption will only ruin July's body.

Just like the prisoners serving their sentences in the rabbit bowl, they have to work hard every day, but they get very little food in return. In the long run, even a body as strong as the Myōo, like Hyōgoro, will become as thin as dried tofu.

Exercise well, eat well, and rest well. Xia Lin thinks this is healthy training. Strong people are not made by starvation.

But even with Xia Lin's help, July seems to be unable to hold on.

"Her original body was too weak. Yayoi was very anxious, and the intensity of the training was a bit too much for July." Yukiko explained that Yayoi was very worried about the battle that might happen at any time, so she wanted to make July stronger quickly, but she was too anxious, so it had the opposite effect.

"Hurry up, July!" She held the wooden sword and roared without mercy. Sometimes Yukiko felt that she was too strict, even surpassing herself.

"No... I can't do it anymore..." Qiyue answered weakly. It wasn't that Qiyue was lazy, but she really couldn't get up. Besides fatigue, her hands and feet could only feel pain. She didn't know how many tears she had swallowed these days.

The body covered by the white kimono was almost all covered with scars. Even when the thin fabric was draped over her body, it was painful. After sweating, the wounds were even more sour and spicy.

Yayoi couldn't bear it, but she still walked up and planned to pull Qiyue up to continue training.

"Stop here, Yayoi. Qiyue's body can't continue to exercise." Xia Lin walked towards them, stopped Yayoi, and then picked up Qiyue from the ground. The poor girl had already reached her limit.

"If she continues, her body will collapse. The injuries left by the previous training have not recovered yet, but have worsened."

"I'm sorry, Lord Xia Lin... I was too impatient..." Yayoi gritted her teeth and lowered her head. Of course, she was the last person who wanted to treat July like this, but she couldn't help herself when she thought about July encountering enemies.

"She doesn't have to go to the battlefield, just stay on the island, the thunderstorm will protect the island." Xia Lin said, July in his arms had fallen asleep because of her relaxed spirit.

"How can this be done? She followed me out without permission, which has caused a lot of trouble. If she doesn't help..." Yayoi said hurriedly. She didn't forget her original sin of wanting to assassinate Xia Lin. Now she and July should be guilty and servants.

Xia Lin knew that it would be difficult for him to change her mind, so he said: "In this case, you are also my property, and I don't want to lose anything."

Yayoi blushed and lowered her head to respond.

"Yes..."

"Well, if you insist on training her, let July become a demon." Xia Lin said.

The so-called demon is actually a person who has obtained the soul of a devil fruit by receiving it. In previous experiments, it has been ensured that people can obtain the soul of an animal-type devil fruit without side effects.

Now Xia Lin already has a team of ghosts, called the Hundred Ghosts.

Served.

Becoming a demon man does not have any side effects, he is not afraid of water, and he can eat devil fruits like normal people. Xia Lin actually wants Yukiko and others to become demon men, but except for him, one person can only receive one animal soul with his help. If he receives more than one, he will explode and die. Therefore, Xia Lin did not carry out this plan before finding a strong enough fruit.

"This is it, the ancient velociraptor fruit." Xia Lin thought about it and took out an ancient devil fruit.

"Ancient species? Giving such a precious ancient species to July is a bit..." Yayoi hesitated a little. As a sister, she certainly hopes that July will get the soul of this fruit, but as Xia Lin's servant, she thinks it is a bit of a waste.

After all, this is an ancient species...

However, in the devil fruit market, the value of ancient devil fruits is not particularly high. Ancient species are just rare, and they are not necessarily stronger than modern animals. The Tyrannosaurus Rex in the small garden may not be the opponent of the Komainu in Wano Country.

Animal system, as long as it is not a mythical beast species, the value is generally not very high. After all, the development direction of these fruits is physical fitness, which is too monotonous compared to the invincible natural system and the weird superhuman system in the early stage.

After July woke up, Xia Lin began to perform the ceremony.

July did not resist this matter at all. Soon, after the soul of the velociraptor was stuffed into July's body, July's body began to change.

The first change was the body shape. The original July was of normal height, only about 1.6 meters, but after the transformation, she immediately grew a lot taller. Perhaps because the velociraptor is a small dragon, July did not exceed two meters after the height change, and was almost the same height as Xia Lin now.

Then what attracted attention was her arms. With the elbow as the boundary, the front was completely turned into dinosaur skin, and the back half was still human skin. The structure of the legs was similar, and a slender green tail behind her kept swinging.

At the same time, July's cheeks and head also underwent some changes. Her teeth became sharper, and her skin and bones became a little prominent, showing the characteristics of dinosaurs, but overall she was more human.

This is the Demon Man. Unlike traditional animal-type ability users who have three forms, the Demon Man only has human form and half-beast form.
