"I'll let you go, but naturally, there are conditions," Marco began. "You owe me a life, and if I have any use for you in the future, you must agree unconditionally."
"I wonder why you're not afraid of the sea?"
This was what surprised Kuzan the most. He never thought that a person with a Devil Fruit ability could actually move freely in the sea!
Kuzan's words did not answer the question, but they also indirectly indicated his attitude.
"I have deeply developed the ability of the Mythical Zoan and its ability immortal phoenix, which is similar to your frozen seawater," Marco casually explained.
He knew that Kuzan had acquiesced to his conditions, which was very important to Marco. Kuzan would be a key factor in the future when he encountered the Blackbeard Pirates.
Regarding Marco's explanation, Kuzan thought about it. The fruit abilities of the Zoan and Mythical Zoan types are even rarer than those of the logia type, and the development of Mythical Zoan abilities is probably only clear to the user themselves.
Not to mention Mythical Zoans, even regular Zoan and Paramecia fruits can undergo all kinds of strange developments. For example, the ability of Sengoku's Buddha fruit allows him to deliver terrifying shockwaves, and during the war, he was even able to instantly knock down all the members of the Blackbeard Pirate Group!
Perhaps Marco developed the fruit's abilities on a deeper level after defeating Blackbeard.
Kuzan thought so.
Marco continued, "Just act as if nothing had happened... You are still a member of the Blackbeard Pirates. Remember my conditions: if I need it, you must unconditionally agree."
The seemingly simple fight between the two hid a danger that ordinary people do not know.
For Kuzan, although the final loss was not very honorable, a loss was a loss. He did not have half a complaint. Even in a head-on battle, he couldn't guarantee that he could defeat the current Marco 100%. Originally, he thought that Marco must be seriously injured, but now it seemed... he had thought too much.
Kuzan didn't say much, just nodded.
For Marco, the short fight with Kuzan also made him more familiar with the battles in the pirate world and gave him a deeper understanding of his own strength.
"I'm leaving this island," Marco said. After he finished speaking, the blue flame wings appeared again. The huge flame wings, up to more than ten meters long, shook, and Marco flew up.
For a while, the wind was blowing, and Kuzan below raised his head. His eyes followed Marco, but his heart was like a turbulent river. "Compared to the war at Marineford... Marco has gotten stronger!"
During the Marineford war, Kuzan had fought against Marco. One of them as the youngest admiral of the Navy Headquarters, the other as the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates - they were complete opposites. From now on... it seemed that they were no longer opposites!
...
Marco flew over the surface of the sea, his blue flame wings blazing, startling countless marine fish. It was quite a spectacular sight from a distance.
Marco wanted to find a pirate ship to conserve his physical energy. Although flying felt good, he didn't want to waste unnecessary energy. After all, this was a new world full of unknowns and dangers!
"Ding!"
At this time, Marco heard a system prompt in his mind: "In the battle between the host and the Ice-Ice Fruit ability user, the super auxiliary system activates the 'fruit ability development auxiliary mechanism'. The host initially comprehends the ice form in the 'water element', and the host can combine the comprehended elements for fruit ability development."
"Huh?"
Marco was happy in his heart. He didn't expect that this short battle would be so fruitful!
Sure enough, combat is the best way to improve your strength and develop your fruit ability!
...
A huge centipede-like Sea King rushed out of the sea, covered in scales like armor, but with a huge blood-red mouth like a crocodile. It opened its massive jaws and lunged at Marco flying in mid-air!
Whoosh!
The pair of huge flame wings behind Marco suddenly opened forward like a fan.
Whoosh!
The pair of huge flame wings behind Marco suddenly opened forward like a fan. The flame wings immediately split into densely packed blue short spears. These crystal blue short spears, surrounded by blue flames, shot towards the Sea King, emitting a sharp sound as they broke through the air!
Poof!
Without exception, the blue short spears, like a sudden rain, directly pierced the Sea King's scaly armor, leaving a dense pattern of holes. The Sea King was instantly bombarded and fell backwards!
Crack!
Just when the Sea King was about to fall into the seawater, the holes in its body burst out streams of cold air. Then, the huge body of the Sea King was directly frozen!
Not only that, but the freezing gas also froze the sea surface below the Sea King, forming a Sea King ice sculpture!
"Very good means of concealing lethal attacks!"
Marco was more than satisfied with the trick he had just developed. With systematic assistance, it was very easy to develop new abilities. Marco was full of expectations for the future. "Blue flame with freezing properties!" he thought. "There's also the regenerative inflammation that can make me practically immortal! The only regret is that the blue flame of the Phoenix fruit doesn't have the burning ability of real flame. I wonder if I can develop the ability of real flame?"
By this time, it was already the next morning. Marco had flown a long distance last night and hadn't seen a single person. He finally had to find an isolated island for the night, which made Marco sigh at how desolate this sea area really was!
In order to avoid pursuit by the Blackbeard Pirates, Marco had hidden in quite a barren sea area...!
After flying for another half day, Marco looked at the sea and showed joy. "Finally, I've spotted a pirate ship!"
In the distance, a large pirate ship was sailing sideways. The most eye-catching thing about this pirate ship was that on its two masts, there were two different pirate flags. One of them was a particularly huge pirate flag. Above the large white skull, there was a pair of curved sharp horns, making the whole flag look extremely hideous...!
