Chapter 131: Olvia Sets Out! The Giant Carp
The antique box was opened.
Inside, besides the original envelope, the Vivre Card that had previously crumbled into fragments had, at this moment, completely reformed anew.
This left Olvia stunned in place.
Her gaze locked tightly on that brand-new Vivre Card. For a moment, she didn't know what to say. Subconsciously, her fair hand clenched tightly in excitement.
After so long of calm composure.
In this instant, she could no longer hold back. She instinctively gripped the Vivre Card tightly.
"Mr. Lotte… has returned…!"
Olvia couldn't help murmuring softly. With her gaze gradually firming, she walked without hesitation toward the outside of the island.
Since that person had returned, she absolutely had to find him!
Docked beside the isolated island was a small boat.
At her waist, she carried a very exquisite scabbard—clear evidence that over these ten years, Olvia had never neglected improving her strength.
At that moment.
"Rumble—!"
With the sudden surging waves, an extremely terrifying crocodile-like Sea King burst from beneath the sea surface, opening its abyssal maw and charging straight toward the island.
In front of it.
A smaller Sea King was desperately fleeing—clearly not wanting to die just like that. But the massive crocodile-shaped beast chasing behind it
Was completely an innocent victim of collateral damage.
Yet Olvia showed no trace of panic on her face. The experiences of these ten years had already elevated her will far beyond its former level.
She abruptly drew the sword at her waist.
The silver-white blade, like moonlight, sliced through the air. Pitch-black Armament Haki instantly coated it, unleashing a crescent-moon-shaped slash.
"Swish!"
A stunning moon blade dozens of meters long cleaved the sea surface.
It effortlessly sliced both Sea Kings in half as if cutting tofu.
Not only that—if one looked closely, the crescent-shaped sword energy attached to the massive slash had cleanly bisected the Sea Kings.
"Splash!"
The Sea Kings' corpses slapped against the sea surface.
Instantly raising waves several meters high that crashed against the shore with a crisp sound. Olvia returned her sword to its scabbard.
To her.
With her complete mastery of Moon Breathing and proficient dual-color Haki, her current strength was already a cut above even ordinary Marine Headquarters Vice Admirals.
But she was still quite far from the top-tier powerhouses.
This was the gap brought by talent. Even for Toki, bridging it would be extremely difficult.
Olvia stepped onto the small boat.
Using the complete mastery of the Gaia Foundation, she changed her appearance. Then, without hesitation, she followed the guidance of the Vivre Card and set off in the corresponding direction.
...
After a long voyage.
The large ship under Lotte's command finally reached the vicinity of Wano Country, guided by Whitebeard's Vivre Card. Though Lotte didn't know the way himself.
The terrifying, surging waves
Clearly told Lotte he hadn't chosen the wrong route. If he remembered correctly, in the original anime, they had passed through exactly this chaotic sea area.
After all, without such barriers.
Wano's closed-country policy would never have succeeded so easily. As the crashing waves began to batter the ship, causing it to rock violently, Lotte narrowed his eyes slightly.
He stood calmly at the bow, gazing at the turbulent currents.
"Looks like we've finally reached the vicinity of Wano Country."
"Toki, now that we're here, do you know the way forward?"
"After all, this is your homeland."
At this moment.
Toki looked somewhat blankly at the chaotic sea.
"Is this what the waters near Wano Country are like? I never heard of anything like this eight hundred years ago. Is this really the area around Wano?"
"This is my first time going out to sea."
Lotte's mouth twitched.
So this girl didn't even know the waters around Wano. In that case, they could only continue following Whitebeard's Vivre Card guidance.
"Wano Country is famous now as the Land of Samurai."
"I wonder how strong the samurai there are. Maybe I can have a spar or two. You don't mind, do you, Toki?"
Lotte said with a smile.
He was also quite curious about Kozuki Oden's current strength.
It had been a long time since he'd had a truly exhilarating fight. He wondered if that guy could satisfy his current expectations.
Because of the need to hide his identity.
Lotte temporarily had no intention of using the Wood Release abilities granted by Hashirama Cells. Relying solely on swordsmanship in a battle against Kozuki Oden—he wondered what the outcome would be.
He casually opened his current attribute panel.
[Name: Lotte]
[Age: 19 (Time Frozen)]
[Bloodline Ability: Hashirama Cells (Mastery 65%) (Recovering)]
[Skills: Wood Release (Current Power Limit A+), Three Types of Haki (Advanced 10%), Flame Dance Dual Sword Style (Advanced 10%), Sun Breathing Technique (Mastery 55%), Voice of All Things (Mastered), Three Tomoe Sharingan (Mastered)]
[Inventory: Flame King / Shodai Kitetsu (Supreme Grade Swords), Eternal Youth Pill ×3]
[Combat Power: 33000-46000]
[Overall Evaluation: Normal-state strength approaches Vice Admiral level. Hashirama Cells have recovered to a certain degree, but other abilities remain frozen by time and gain no experience, requiring longer recovery. Fortunately, it only needs waiting.]
[Special Remark: What must come will come.]
His strength evaluation hadn't changed much. Due to Imu's interference, aside from Hashirama Cells, Lotte's other abilities hadn't recovered yet.
Whether Haki or swordsmanship, he was clearly not at his peak.
According to his estimation, to reach Admiral level in normal state would require roughly 50,000–60,000 combat power.
With his current power—even counting the home-field advantage of Hashirama Cells—
He could only barely contend with one Admiral.
This level of strength was still far from enough to execute his plans.
Toki gave him a helpless glance.
Her cheap captain seemed to have set his sights on someone.
Just as she was about to say something, several shadows moved beneath the water.
Instantly drawing her attention.
Then she subconsciously widened her eyes, pointing at the sea surface in shock as she hurriedly shouted toward Lotte.
"C-Captain! There are some really huge carp over here!"
"They're almost like Sea Kings!"
