Because he had signed a contract that would make him forget an item’s effects once the transaction was complete, Mad-level Potter could only treasure this rare chance to feast his eyes on it.

He held Bai Cangshu’s left arm with near-greedy care. This was a high-tier item he had never seen before. Not only did it possess seven effects, but it also had the terrifying property of being virtually impervious to everything.

In other words, as long as Mercenary Tao held this arm, no matter how fierce an attack was, he only needed to raise his left hand in front of it for the attack to become useless.

Against a Martial Artist like Mercenary Tao, whose combat skills were exceptional, Mad-level Potter felt that among Reincarnators of a similar tier, only a group assault or an enormous area-of-effect energy attack stood any chance of defeating him.

Whether it was firearms mastery, swordsmanship mastery, or Martial Arts Mastery, all of them would likely be shut down by that indestructible arm.

"You really are lucky, Mercenary Tao."

You have lost D-rank Anomaly Point x2.

Bai Cangshu did not continue discussing luck with Mad-level Potter. As he became increasingly familiar with the space, he had begun to realize that his luck truly was abnormally high.

If the Black King Society’s unexpected invasion in the One Piece World had not caused his Main Mission to fail, then judging by how Bai Cangshu had severely injured Moon Demon using Enel, he really would have had a chance to keep exploiting the terrain to hunt other Reincarnators.

Then he could have remained hidden in Enel’s shadow and ultimately completed the Main Mission before leaving.

In the eyes of the space, Bai Cangshu would have been an extraordinary newcomer, completing every mission with a high degree of success and reaping immense rewards each time. Even after the space raised the difficulty, he would still have been able to complete them.

If that happened, Bai Cangshu estimated that he might soon enter higher-powered and more chaotic worlds, such as the One-Punch Man World.

Once the transaction was complete, Mad-level Potter froze for a moment. Losing a portion of one’s memories was always somewhat disorienting, but he merely shook his head and understood what had happened.

"You really do have some good stuff, huh? You actually used a contract."

"Luoxi should have told you that I can customize specific magical devices according to the elements you control. But as for the price, ordinary people can’t afford it."

Bai Cangshu nodded with a smile.

"Clearly, I’m one of the people who can."

At the moment, he still had one A-rank Anomaly Point, two B-rank Anomaly Points, and two D-rank Anomaly Points. There was no reason he could not afford ordinary artificial magical devices.

Besides, he still had a slave account. Bai Cangshu had no intention of leaving Li Qingzi any resources to strengthen herself. To him, bringing a slave along on missions was far less convenient than traveling alone.

Moreover, a Reincarnator at Moon Demon’s level would only needlessly raise his evaluation. It was better to release her like a lamb and let her fight desperately in her mission worlds. Whatever resources she earned would become his to use, and if she died, it would not be a loss.

That was the very purpose of slaves.

Although Bai Cangshu wanted to use Li Qingzi to test whether his Sin of Lust could reach 100% completion, he had not developed any feelings that she was irreplaceable. There were plenty of powerful female Plot Characters in mission worlds.

Since Mad-level Potter knew that the other man had definitely just made him appraise some highly valuable item, and since Luoxi had introduced him, he nodded and asked,

"Tell me what you need first, then tell me what type of energy you currently control. I’ll see whether I have any suitable magical devices."

Bai Cangshu did not have much of a concept of vehicles. Aside from things like the Green Demon Skateboard and Undead Warhorse, most vehicles were too cumbersome and inconvenient for him.

Perhaps if he could achieve Pillar Flight like the real Mercenary Tao, he would not need to consider this problem.

"I need a vehicle that can let me move over a large area. It should be convenient to use and capable of adapting to different environments."

Mad-level Potter nodded. He operated his stall, and a new item appeared among the displayed goods.

Ace's Skiff

Quality: Silver Plot Equipment

Description: The vehicle of Portgas D. Ace in One Piece and its Derivative Worlds. It can use flames to travel quickly across the sea.

Usage Requirements: Possess fire-type energy.

"I can make you a vehicle based on this template, but you need to possess an elemental energy. Qi won’t work."

Mad-level Potter directly clarified that qi would not work. Most likely, his abilities could not properly connect with qi, a form of bodily energy. As a Reincarnator of the magic and mystic side, when making such items, aside from setting magical power as the energy source, he could usually only use elements as the energy source.

Otherwise, asking a mage to create a vehicle powered by qi was truly beyond his scope.

"Lightning. I want lightning to be the power source."

Potter was somewhat surprised. Lightning was an energy system even more suitable than fire for this kind of power source. He had not expected Mercenary Tao, who had always operated using a Martial Artist ability system, to also possess lightning-based energy.

He nodded.

"That works. Lightning makes things easier, so I can lower the price a little."

"But you should understand the price of an item built on a piece of Silver Plot Equipment."

Bai Cangshu and Potter signed a supplementary agreement. Once Potter created a vehicle that met Bai Cangshu’s requirements, Bai Cangshu would be obligated to purchase it with the corresponding price and materials.

Afterward, Bai Cangshu returned to his stall. He put the Gourmet Cell and Devil Fruit back into his Backpack, then headed to the Cultivation Institute.

Before beginning his training, Bai Cangshu took out the scroll he had obtained from Rose Tiger along with Satsui no Hado.

You have used Ability Scroll: Shun Goku Satsu.

Evaluating eligibility to learn.

Evaluation in progress...

Evaluation passed.

In an instant, Bai Cangshu appeared in a spiritual world, just as he had when learning abilities through the Secret Manual: Wind God Leg in the real world.

Bai Cangshu raised his head and saw a red-haired figure standing above him, completely enveloped in Satsui no Hado.

The other’s eyes were white, and his muscles had swollen excessively under the stimulation of Satsui no Hado, making him resemble a monster covered in scales.

Satsui no Hado swayed continuously with the figure’s breathing. Bai Cangshu altered his breathing rhythm, and golden Hamon began to circulate as his qi became deep and steady.

Above him, Akuma suddenly lowered himself slowly and spread both hands to either side.

At that instant, Bai Cangshu’s breath caught. Intense killing intent swept through the entire Consciousness Space like a gale. He knew.

It’s coming…

The next moment, heaven and earth instantly darkened, as though every trace of light had been drowned in killing intent.

Bai Cangshu’s limbs trembled at once. Then the terrifying Satsui no Hado brutally cut off his Hamon as if it intended to burst his meridians, and the golden ribbon-like ripples came to an abrupt halt.

Purple Satsui no Hado appeared.

But in the next instant, Bai Cangshu felt countless attacks strike him simultaneously from every direction. Countless fists carrying destructive killing intent slammed into his body.

The killing intent dispersed. Only that figure remained standing with his back toward him, a scarlet character for heaven appearing behind him.

Pfft!

Bai Cangshu spat out a mouthful of blood, staining the white floor of the Cultivation Institute red.

He opened his eyes, and the illusion vanished. His body had not truly suffered the strikes of One Instant Thousand Strikes, but his breathing was rapid, and he felt a faint pain in his chest from the intense killing intent eroding it.

Yet that injury was healed in the blink of an eye by the High-Speed Regeneration granted by the Perfect Individual bloodline.

You have mastered Ability: Shun Goku Satsu (A).

Shun Goku Satsu (A) Lv1: Completely unleash the limits of Satsui no Hado, become one with killing intent, transform into an asura in an instant, and unleash an assassination fist that embodies the ultimate speed, dealing destructive damage. (When Satsui no Hado reaches Lv7 or above, unlock True Shun Goku Satsu: One Instant Thousand Strikes (S-).)

Bai Cangshu changed his breathing rhythm, and his entire body filled with dark purple Satsui no Hado. He spread his arms, and the Satsui no Hado within him instantly flooded through his entire body.

The corners of his mouth curled upward beyond his control. The icy sensation of killing intent coursing through his body gave him an intensely exhilarated feeling, a pleasure he could only briefly experience when slaughtering other prey.

Kill, kill, kill…

In an instant, Bai Cangshu fully merged with the killing intent. His figure seemed to vanish, and in the next moment, he felt as if his body had completely transcended the shackles of flesh.

Bang bang bang bang…

Dense sounds of air being struck, accompanied by purple Satsui no Hado, made the pure white training space seem as if it had been ignited in an instant.

In only 0.36 seconds, Bai Cangshu threw more than a hundred punches. This fist technique that transcended the physical limits of the body was the ultimate art of slaughter—Shun Goku Satsu!

Bai Cangshu panted heavily, feeling drained. His Satsui no Hado level was not high enough, and merging with killing intent would further expose him to its corrosion.

But relying on the bloodline trait of High-Speed Regeneration, Bai Cangshu would not be directly killed or severely injured by this damage.

The pale purple killing intent in his eyes slowly faded, and he swiftly adjusted his condition. He decided to attempt a special training method.

"Exchange for ordinary sparring partners."

This time, Bai Cangshu did not choose to spend Anomaly Points to exchange for those Martial Artist sparring partners. Instead, he chose ordinary sparring partners.

Please select from the following sparring partners. The Dimensional Points required for each sparring partner will be listed separately.

As the space’s prompt appeared, a long row of sparring partner panels emerged. They were all unknown extras, mostly possessing only the physical qualities of ordinary people, though some had basic martial arts foundations.

These sparring partners were originally intended for Reincarnators who had just entered the space. With a thought, Bai Cangshu spent three thousand Dimensional Points at once, and a row of sparring partners clad in martial arts uniforms immediately appeared before him.

Before the sparring partners could react, Bai Cangshu appeared before them in an instant. He threw a punch, and tyrannical force pierced through the first person’s chest, shattering the breastbones of several people behind him as well.

Satsui no Hado has increased slightly. Current level: Lv2 (21/100).

"Ha, so this works too. How convenient, Satsui no Hado~"

The glow of Satsui no Hado in Bai Cangshu’s eyes became increasingly obvious.
