Giselle can not only create and control zombies but is also a super healer.
As long as one doesn't die instantly, they can be healed back by Giselle.
So Liltotto felt that there shouldn't be any issues.
Meanwhile, Beltz was wondering just how much damage the World Government would inflict on the Wandenreich when the time came.
How much military force could the World Government mobilize?
Since it involved the Ancient Kingdom, would the World Government deploy the Marine?
It's hard to say... After all, the Ancient Kingdom involves many of Imu's secrets, so to be safe, they might only deploy the Celestial Dragons' own forces.
For example, the Holy Knights...?
Well, the Holy Knights would probably just be speed bumps in the Empire; one couldn't count on them to kill the Sternritter.
Then... the Gorosei?
Or even... would Imu personally take action?
Back at God Valley, he had felt Imu's Haki.
At that time, Imu had possessed Saturn, and that Haki was incredibly powerful.
If Imu personally intervened, few in the Sternritter would be able to withstand it.
Hmm... whether the World Government killed the Sternritter or the Wandenreich took out the Holy Knights or the Gorosei, it would be a win for him.
So, next, Beltz needed to accumulate travel time.
Since he wanted the World Government and the Wandenreich to go to war, there would certainly be many people coming here.
According to his expectations, at least all of the Gorosei and the Holy Knights should enter.
That would be about twenty people or so.
Supporting the consumption of twenty people was also incredibly taxing for Beltz.
Consequently, another month passed, during which he only spent two hours in One Piece.
He saw the Red-Haired brothers as infants there, chatted with Kuma and Ginny for a while, and then returned.
During this month, he performed his duties as a Sternritter adjutant.
Acting as Liltotto's babysitter and heading to the training grounds to exercise whenever he had free time.
It had been forty days since he transmigrated, and his strength had been steadily improving.
He had almost completely digested the abilities of the Azure Dragon Fruit.
However, it was clearly not enough to develop the Azure Dragon Fruit to its limit like Kaido had.
Zoan-type Devil Fruits have three standard forms: Beast Form, Human Form, and Hybrid Form.
But powerful individuals can develop even more forms within these three.
For example, Kaido has a Drunken Form after his Hybrid Form; drinking alcohol can enhance his abilities and even increase his Haki.
And after getting drunk, there's even a full-throttle Bloodlust Form.
These are all further developments of the Azure Dragon Fruit.
However, Beltz didn't necessarily have to replicate Kaido's evolutionary path, as everyone has their own understanding of Devil Fruit development.
If he blindly imitated Kaido, he wouldn't be able to truly become stronger.
Time in the world of Bleach was still quite cheap; a month was far too short for those with lifespans of hundreds or even thousands of years.
So, aside from him and Liltotto, there weren't many major changes in others.
After accumulating enough travel time, he decided to head to One Piece with Liltotto to execute the plan.
"Let's get this straight first: I won't do anything too troublesome."
Before entering, Liltotto said in advance, "If they don't follow your plan, I won't put in any extra effort."
"Don't worry, I think there's a high probability there won't be any problems." Beltz patted his chest and said quite confidently, "I'll bring a mirror then. If you're in danger, just hide in the Mirror World."
Liltotto's Devil Fruit ability was insane; with the Mirror-Mirror Fruit, even if negotiations broke down and the Gorosei wanted to kill her, she could escape using a mirror.
So, there was no need to worry too much about safety.
"Fine, let's go in."
Liltotto first created mirror avatars of them both and then took the initiative to reach out her hand.
Beltz took her hand, and they vanished from the room in an instant, leaving only the two mirror avatars in the tower to pose as their real selves according to Liltotto's orders.
One Piece World
Beltz and Liltotto appeared outside a church in the southern part of the Sorbet Kingdom.
"So this is your base of operations."
This was Liltotto's first time here; she hadn't met Kuma and the others yet, but she didn't really care.
"Yeah, we need to get someone to help us," Beltz said.
"With what?"
"With getting to Mary Geoise quickly, of course. It would be too slow if we flew there."
Even if Beltz transformed into an azure dragon and flew all the way to the Holy Land Mary Geoise, it would still take a few days.
But with Kuma, it would be much faster.
His Paw Paw Fruit could quickly repel himself to Mary Geoise.
Kuma had been to Mary Geoise before, so he could repel people directly there.
"You go find them; I can't be bothered to deal with other people," Liltotto said with a lazy look.
She hated dealing with strangers.
"Go into the Mirror World then."
Beltz said, "Once I arrive, you can just come out of the Mirror World."
"Mhm."
Beltz took a mirror out of his pocket, and Liltotto slipped right inside.
After putting the mirror away, Beltz walked into the church.
"Ah, it's Beltz."
Seeing Beltz, Ginny said happily, "It's been quite a while since your last visit. We were all worried about you."
"Some things came up, so I was delayed for a bit."
Beltz looked around and asked, "Where's Kuma?"
"He went to the village in the west. That guy is too gentle, always thinking of others. After getting his ability, he's been focused on doing something for the villagers," Ginny sighed.
"But the cost is his own body. Every day I see Kuma-kun pushing his body to the limit, and I'm so worried."
Kuma's ability can repel people's illnesses, fatigue, and pain, but those pain bubbles ultimately need someone to bear them; otherwise, they return to the original person.
And Kuma always uses his own body to endure those negative effects.
It has to be said, Kuma truly is a compassionate saint.
"But that pain also tempers Kuma's body and will, doesn't it?" Beltz smiled. "In the future, Kuma will surely become a great warrior."
"I'll go call him back now."
"No need, I'll wait for him here." Beltz walked further into the church. "What about little Shanks and Shamrock? Are they still sleeping?"
"They should be awake by now. Those two kids are really energetic."
Beltz and Ginny entered the nursery and saw two red-haired children crawling on the bed.
The two children looked almost identical, so much so that Beltz could hardly tell which one was Shanks and which one was Shamrock.
