Kenji looked at his shrinking arm, his heart filled with emotion.
After traveling all the way to Elbaph… it's finally done!
"Giant Bloodline… So it must be approached from the bloodline level, no wonder…"
Looking at all the traits Kenji possessed, most of them could be freely controlled.
Even a trait like Sea King Power could have its basic strength freely adjusted.
Aside from a few special traits like Physique, where it was difficult to control their activation and deactivation.
In fact, Giant Bloodline was also considered that type of trait, but it evolved from the Physique trait, making it somewhat unique.
Kenji regarded it as a trait similar to Sea King Power.
This was because the Sea Beast Power trait, which was a prerequisite for Sea King Power, also evolved from the Physique trait.
Therefore, Kenji always believed that the Giant Bloodline trait could also be freely controlled, he just hadn't found the correct method yet.
Although the initial motivation for him to pursue control over Giant Bloodline came from lust, Kenji was not ashamed but proud of it.
Lust is the driving force behind biological evolution!
After all, isn't biological evolution for better reproduction?
At this moment, Kenji did not completely shrink his body back to normal human size. He merely tested and confirmed that he could freely control the Giant Bloodline, then stopped.
Behind him, Harald suddenly rubbed his eyes, muttering to himself with a look of confusion.
"Strange, he seems to have gotten a little smaller… Am I seeing things?"
Kenji controlled his trait very precisely, and only slightly reduced his body size. Such a slight change in body size appeared to Harald as if he were seeing things.
Harald had awakened the ancient Giant Bloodline, and his body was much larger than that of an ordinary Giant.
Normally, the Temple Guards in the palace were considered short in Harald's eyes, and Kenji's ten-meter height was undoubtedly an even shorter existence.
For an error of less than one meter, in the eyes of a 'colossus' like Harald, it was actually almost the same, a relatively small change.
"Hmm, it must be my imagination…"
Harald looked at Kenji repeatedly, and after observing for a moment, confirmed that he was 'seeing things'.
He shook his head, no longer thinking about it, and prepared to introduce Kenji to some more secrets of the Elbaph Giant Tribe.
In reality, the reason Harald was so candid, acting as if he didn't consider Kenji an outsider… was because he truly didn't consider Kenji an outsider.
He personally led the way, introducing Kenji to the history of the Elbaph Giant Tribe, partly because of the promise made ten days ago.
On the other hand, he also wanted to observe Kenji up close to confirm whether the latter was a true Giant.
And after this trip, Harald finally determined that Kenji was a Giant, one of their own.
Since he was one of their own, he certainly deserved some preferential treatment.
The number of Giants in the entire world was not large to begin with, and they were all of the same origin and kind, so naturally, all Giants under heaven were one family. Of course, when it came to tribal concepts, regional differences inevitably arose.
Giants from other regions of the world looked down on the Elbaph Giant Tribe, considering them barbaric.
And the Elbaph Giants likewise looked down on Giants from other places, believing those fellows were not qualified warriors at all.
But for Kenji, Harald couldn't think that way.
After all, this young Giant from the outside world was even stronger than all their Elbaph high-ranking officials combined.
So, how could such a powerful individual be bound to Elbaph?
This was what Harald was worried about at the moment.
"It would be best if he could stay… What reason could I use?"
Harald frowned, subconsciously turning to look at the other Elbaph high-ranking officials behind him, as if trying to see if they had any ideas.
However, the other Giant warriors present, including several Temple Guards who had witnessed Kenji's strength firsthand, didn't think that far ahead.
Most of them still thought Harald was simply accompanying Kenji out of gratitude.
In fact, before confirming Kenji's Giant bloodline, Harald also had no intention of keeping Kenji.
But now, knowing that a young Giant with powerful combat strength was right in front of him, wouldn't it be a loss not to keep him?
Unfortunately, he racked his brain but couldn't figure out what to do, as Elbaph was located in a remote area, and aside from being ancient and long-standing, there wasn't much that was attractive about it.
At least Wano Country was famous worldwide for its courtesan oiran!
"Ordinary methods don't seem to work…" Harald's brows furrowed, and after careful consideration, he decided to lower his requirements slightly.
Even if he couldn't keep the person, he had to keep Kenji's talented bloodline…
Speaking of bloodline, Harald's heart suddenly stirred, and he quickly came up with an idea.
Meanwhile, Kenji had finished testing the Giant Bloodline trait, not only restoring his body to its original height but also growing slightly, already reaching ten meters in height.
Twelve meters is the minimum standard for Giants.
It was foreseeable that in just a few days, Kenji's true body would exceed twelve meters in height.
The reason for saying 'true body' was because Kenji had now mastered the Giant Bloodline trait and could freely control his body height.
And the shallow test just now made Kenji realize that manipulating his body to grow and shrink would consume some physical energy.
"Hmm, the energy consumption isn't much…" Kenji turned around, collected his thoughts, and was already planning to depart.
"The Giant Bloodline trait can be freely controlled now. I've been here for more than ten days, it's time to return.
"Kong must be getting anxious, right?"
A few days ago, Kong had called, urging Kenji to return as soon as possible, or to go and handle other matters.
In the conversation, he did not mention the God's Knights or the World Government.
This situation was pretty much as Kenji had predicted earlier.
The World Government, or rather, the Five Elders, would not want another Legendary Pirate-level enemy.
As for Kong, he might be under pressure, or maybe not, who knows, but it wasn't something Kenji needed to worry about.
And although Kong was urging him, Kenji did not plan to return to the main base immediately or directly start the next mission.
Work-life balance leads to the best work state!
He intended to 'relax' for a while first.
Just as Kenji turned around, facing Harald, preparing to bid farewell in person—
The other party suddenly proposed a suggestion that greatly surprised Kenji.
"Young man, how about I introduce you to a fiancée?" Harald's expression looked very serious.
Shinji transmigrated to the Naruto world with no cheats. To ensure his safety, he became a teacher at Ninja School.
