Chapter 1,425 Esdeath and Uzumaki Kushina! (2-in-1)

To Mihawk.

The day after arriving at Noah’s Ark passed quickly.

After defeating Longinus in a sparring match in about two hours, he briefly met with Im-sama.

Then he returned to his garden and Gion for dinner.

He suddenly discovered that the food on Noah's Ark was much more delicious than before.

According to the chefs, the ingredients they now use come from all over the world.

Among them, Teigu World’s ingredients are of the highest quality.

Especially the large amount of ingredients that Longinus recently brought back.

There are many kinds of meat, fruits and vegetables, and spices that are not found in the Empire, Shenhe, and Alchemy.

They chefs are figuring out how to cook them better

For Shanks who stayed on the first deck, this period of time was too painful.

He and Niugui teamed up to face Kukulkan's ferocious attack and found it extremely difficult.

One person and one beast were kicked away countless times by each other, and they vomited blood countless times.

During the battle, Ushiuki was so anxious that he used his tailed beast jade, but he was kicked back like a ball by his opponent!

Fortunately, Kukulkan showed mercy.

They purposely let the tailed beast jade rub against their heads and kicked off the deck of Noah's Ark, causing it to explode like a nuclear explosion in the far distance in the void!

This made Ushiuki no longer dare to use the Tailed Beast Jade, for fear of being kicked back and affecting Shanks.

Shanks was also amazed by Kukulkan's kicking skills.

He could recognize the shadow of the 'red-foot kicking technique' in it, but the style had a strong personal touch.

snake!

To Shanks, the shadow of Kukulkan's legs was like a giant snake's tail carrying air waves and creating a sonic boom.

Even if I tried to imitate Captain Roger's 'Divine Avoidance', I could only barely offset most of the force of the leg shadow, and then be blown away by the remaining impact.

Fortunately, this can no longer cause too much harm to the body.

And Shanks can feel that Kukulkan has shown mercy.

They fought from day to night, and from late at night to early morning.

Until Stussy spread out a pair of wings made of blood and fell from the sky.

"Lord Im's oracle, Saint Figalande Shanks passed the test and granted him the qualification of an elite Celestial Dragon. Then he went to Marijoa on his own to receive training from the commander of the Knights of God, Saint Figalande Shanks. , until you have the general combat power recognized by the other party!"

At this time, Kukulkan had stopped moving and lowered his head to listen to the oracle that had nothing to do with him.

Shanks, who was covered with bruises, endured the pain and supported the huge body of the bull ghost. He gritted his teeth and knelt down, and replied in a deep voice: "I will obey the oracle of Lord Im!"

But just when Stusy was about to leave, Shanks quickly asked:

"May I ask what to do with Tawiriyat, Illya and the others that I brought out?"

Stussy tilted her head and said with a smile: "Master Yimu didn't mention them, so he probably just let them go. How about this? I'll ask you about it when I get back?"

Shanks was immediately pleasantly surprised: "Thank you so much, Miss Stussy!"

"Shanks Saint, just call me Secretary Stussy. Then please tell me your phone number, and I'll let you know when the time comes."

"Okay, okay!"

Shanks didn't expect Stusy to be so kind to him.

In fact, Stussy has already seen that Im treats Shanks a little differently.

Otherwise, an ordinary Celestial Dragon who broke out from the Holy Land would not be able to come to this Noah's Ark and let Kukulkan test him.

at the same time.

Esdeath was unexpectedly called to Im's study, which put a surprised look on her face.

"Let's take a look. This is the information brought back by Longinus about your Teigu world."

After saying that, Im used the holographic virtual image to play, and the other party captured various scenes on the Shred Continent in the past three years, as well as the detailed content he had previously dictated.

In the next nearly twenty minutes, Esdeath saw various scenery on the other side of the Teigu world and learned a lot of information about that place.

Such as East Doruma, Shred City, Latio active volcano, Loklak Desert, and Ilufa Snow Mountain.

Of course, what attracts the woman's beautiful blue eyes the most are the dangerous species living in these places and the warriors called hunters.

You must know that the Barutes tribe from which Esdeath was born is a tribe of hunters who live in the north of the empire and specialize in hunting dangerous species.

When she was a child, she even went out alone to hunt a dangerous second-level lizard species that lived in groups!

It's a pity that due to the empire's thousands of years of sparing no effort in sweeping back and forth, there are only a few areas in the territory that are inhabited by particularly dangerous species and have been designated as ultra-dangerous areas.

No powerful and dangerous figure can be seen anymore

But through the images taken by Longinus, she saw many dangerous species that she had never seen or even heard of.

Especially the ice-cursed dragon he encountered in the Ilufa Snow Mountain.

The white and blue were intertwined, and the proud posture surrounded by turbulent ice and snow made Esdeath unable to move his eyes away.

Beautiful, really stunningly beautiful!

At this moment, she only felt that the Cang Fire Dragon seemed quite ordinary.

Im was also admiring Esdeath's beautiful face: "How is it, are you interested?"

"You mean?" Esdeath was surprised and happy.

"Well, Mu plans to let you take over the Magical Creatures Association, and then go to the Shred Continent to absorb the local Hunters Guild."

"From now on, the hunters, dangerous species, and the natural ecological balance of the Teigu world are under your jurisdiction."

"If you do it well, you can be responsible for maintaining the natural ecology of all worlds under the World Government in the future."

Im expressed his thoughts. Ever since Esdeath almost died at the hands of the Twin Demons, he no longer wanted them to participate in the frontline war.

But we can't let Esdeath stay in Noah's Ark all the time.

So I wanted to find something for her to do, just like Historia.

The information Longinus brought back this time made him realize that he had finally found a place where Esdeath's abilities could be used.

He likes fighting, hunting, raising powerful and dangerous species, and has understood the laws of nature since he was a child.

A woman with a wild nature in her heart is perfect for taking care of hunters and monsters!

By the way, let the Association of Magical Creatures suppress the tendency of various worlds to excessively destroy the natural ecology for the sake of development.

After all, whether it is a monster in the Zero Demon World or a dangerous species in the Teigu World, the biological materials on it have extremely high utilization value.

"willing!"

"I do!"

Esdeath was so happy that she immediately stood up and shouted loudly to Im who was sitting on the chair.

Ask her if she's interested, how could she not?

In her opinion, Shred Continent is the most suitable paradise for her!

While enjoying hunting, she will work hard to maintain ecological balance and ensure that every dangerous species can reproduce normally!

By the way, go grab that Ice Curse Dragon and use it as a mount for yourself!

"Thank you, thank you very much, my husband"

Esdeath looked at Im with eyes full of love at the moment.

In other words, it was from this moment that she really started to fall in love with this man.

"Hahaha, in that case, you first take over the Magical Creatures Association, and then take the officials there and the Rose Witches to the Teigu World."

Im smiled slightly: "As for how to conquer the Hunter Guild, you don't need Im to teach you, right?"

"certainly!"

Esdeath nodded heavily, and then smiled sweetly:

"But there's no need to worry. It's not too late to leave two days later. I'll be waiting for you in the palace."

After saying that, she turned her pretty body and left the study quickly, leaving only Im with a speechless expression.

Fortunately, at least Esdeath is satisfied with this arrangement, and he can be considered a good choice.

However, recalling the way the other party looked at the Ice Curse Dragon, Im suddenly also became interested in raising dragons.

In fact, there are already many dragons in the 'Dragon Realm' in his hands.

Most of them are wind dragons, fire dragons, blue dragons from the Zero Demon World, and the Millennium Dragons native to Haixing.

But these are not comparable to those ancient dragons on the Shred Continent in terms of appearance, temperament, or strength.

Speaking of which, he really didn't expect it.

"Monster Hunter" is actually integrated with "Zhan Crimson Eyes".

I have to say, this world is really strange.

Im now wants to get myself an ancient dragon to raise.

This made him search for relevant memories in his mind, while calling up the 'Star Map' and starting to check the Shredder Continent in the Teigu World.

The Teigu world has long been covered by the 'Star Fate', which is equivalent to becoming his back garden, and he can observe every corner at any time.

Soon, Im found the Ilufa Snow Mountain and asked the 'star map' to display high-energy targets.

really.

The ice-cursed dragon that Longinus had encountered was sleeping soundly in an ice cave.

It's indeed beautiful, and it's a perfect match for Esdeath.

However, Im's eyes were quickly attracted by a small object next to him.

I saw a nest made of crystal clear ice crystals.

It has an azure eggshell with white star-like patterns on its surface.

This should be the egg of the Ice Curse Dragon, but it's not what Im cares about.

It is a strange fruit next to the dragon egg. The overall color is similar to the dragon egg, like a huge ice ball.

It's just that the patterns on the surface are black vortexes, with two emerald green branches extending from the top.

Devil Fruit!

Im looked strange. He knew that the Teigu world was just like the Giant world, and various devil fruits began to appear in various places.

But now I am still a little surprised to see Devil Fruit appearing next to Ancient Dragon.

And judging by its shape, it is almost likely to be a devil fruit in the form of an ice cursed dragon!

Next, Im continued to explore the locations of ancient dragons in various places.

Devil fruits with similar shapes have really been found in or near the lairs of Flame Fei Dragon, Steel Dragon, and Jueyin Dragon!

At the same time, he also noticed that Devil Fruits were rarely seen around monsters other than ancient dragons.

The reason why it is said to be very few is because it is not absolutely non-existent, but it is much lower than the probability of seeing it near the ancient dragon.

This is enough to show that Devil Fruits that are not in the form of ancient dragons are highly likely to be completely random.

Just like the Thunder Wolf Dragon fruit that Lao Ai ate appeared on the starfish.

"Interesting, interesting, it's so interesting!" Im was in a very happy mood at the moment.

He really didn't expect that ancient dragons and devil fruits would have some kind of connection.

If future hunters are lucky enough to hunt down these ancient dragons.

Then in addition to the harvest of biological materials, you should also be able to get a Devil Fruit of the corresponding form.

Of course, stealing it is also a skill.

But should these Devil Fruits in the form of ancient dragons be considered dangerous species or phantom beast species?

Im thought about it and felt that it was closer to a fantasy beast species.

Because he remembered that Gu Long was called 'the embodiment of natural phenomena and disasters'.

In terms of ability, they do have various elemental powers, and can even affect or control the climate in the area.

This is beyond the scope of conventional dangerous species.

Keep looking.

Im wants to choose an ancient dragon that is impressive enough for himself, such as the black dragon, the brilliant black dragon, the sky comet dragon, and the sky soaring dragon.

Among them, Tianxianglong's name is very good.

With the help of the 'Star Map', he can easily find these ancient dragons with energy levels far higher than other dangerous species.

A few days later.

The afterglow of the setting sun fell over the school of Nottingham University.

Every outline of the campus is outlined softly and quietly.

Looking up, the sky is gradually turning from blue to purple, and the sunset is falling like fine sand.

The school bell has already rang.

Students of different ages ran out of the classroom, ran to the playground, and then ran out of the school gate like a group of cheerful little beasts.

This is the seal barrier specialized ninja high school in the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

"Goodbye, principal!"

"My mother is here to pick me up. See you tomorrow, Principal Kushina!"

"Okay, okay, goodbye, everyone, please stay safe."

The red-haired Uzumaki Kushina followed the crowd out of the school gate while responding to the students' greetings.

This changed the people she had to deal with with parents instead of students.

This is a process that Kushina is very familiar with, she goes through it every day when she goes home.

So Nagato, who was following her, just watched all this quietly.

Since being adopted by Kushina as his younger brother, he has lived in her home and walked together every day to and from school.

According to the other party, if Nagato is here, you won’t feel lonely!

Because Namikaze Minato spent most of his time at Haisei's Space Research Institute, he would only come back for a few days when he was on vacation.

Of course, for him, this process is not cumbersome. He only needs to use the Flying Thunder God Technique twice.

The first time is to teleport from Punk Hassad Island to Wano Island. After passing through the star gate, you can teleport directly to your home.

So sometimes, when they arrived home, they would see Namikaze Minato already wearing an apron and standing in front of the stove cooking curry.

Because he only knows this, but it tastes pretty good, Nagato really thinks so

After a while, the two of them moved away from the school, which gradually reduced the number of people they met on the road.

Mainly because there are not many residents on the island, most of them are Uzumaki clan members who have recently moved here with students, or who have returned from various places in the ninja world.

But there are really too few people with talents in sealing and enchantment.

As a result, among the top ten higher ninja schools in the ninja world, their number of students is the last.

The second to last is Ninja High School for Genjutsu, and the third to last is Ninja High School for Puppetry.

Not to mention the Uzumaki clan that had experienced large-scale massacres and the destruction of their country.

This makes Whirlpool Island, which is not very big, still appear to be vast and sparsely populated.

"Nagato, I heard that you have mastered the Fire Sealing Seal?"

As Kushina walked, she turned to look at Nagato with a gentle smile on her face.

Nagato nodded calmly: "Well, it feels easier than sealing the evil seal."

"Haha, how could it be? Although both are B-level, the evil-sealing seal targets the chakra in the human body, which is definitely more difficult than the fire-sealing seal that targets flames. I can only say that Nagato is really a genius! "Kushina praised without hesitation.

"Then you teach me King Kong Blockade." Nagato raised his head and said.

"This is too early for you, because it requires you to have a high level of sealing and enchantment skills."

Just as Kushina shook her head slightly, her footsteps suddenly stopped, her eyes became solemn, and she quickly scanned the surrounding woods.

Because she felt killing intent coming from all around, and it was undisguised.

Nagato also fell silent, and his body tensed up.

As an orphan who has been hiding in the Land of Rain since childhood, he also has an unusual ability to sense murderous intent and malice.

In other words, this is the talent of the Whirlpool clan!

"Sister, we can't be here, there are too many people," Nagato warned in a low voice, suppressing the discomfort.

Kushina nodded with a heavy heart.

There are many students and parents on this road, and if a ninja battle breaks out, they will definitely be affected.

The other party's murderous intent was obviously threatening them.

What makes her most helpless is that in this situation,
