Sleeping in his castle, no ohered Masa, and everyone tiheir lives as they ed up all the mess caused by Tead his pirate groups.

  At the same time, they were gd to be protected by Masa, and if possible, they wished that such a day would tinue, especially after they saw Dalton had passed away.

  Even Dalton, the stro guy on the isnd, died uhe attack of pirates.

  Then what about those who were just normal people?

  So, while they felt a bit nervous, their representatives came to Kureha, talking about their opinions as they discussed everything, which made Kureha think that those people weren't idiots.

  Still, sidering how many excellent doctors came from this nd, it was normal for many of its people to be stupid.

  Yet, even so, there were still many idiots on this isnd, too.

  Looking at the dead body of Dalton, Kureha sighed inwardly, but she didn't say much since you reap what you sow.

  "Have you woken up, Masa?"

  Meanwhile, Masa, who had just woken up, was greeted by Perona, who was so close to his fabsp;

  "... you step back for a while?"

  "Oh, yeah."

  Masa looked at the three that gathered in his room and asked, "What's wrong?"

  a eechless and said, "We 't stay with you if you are sleeping?"

  "It means that we're worried," Kalifa added.

  "....." a.

  "I am fine." Masa stretched his body again and said, " you get something for me to eat?" He could eat the air, but its taste was quite bnd, and he wao eat something real. More importantly, it was dangerous since if he ate air, then a, Perona, and Kalifa wouldn't be able to breathe and might die as they couldn't breathe.

  "Let me get you!" Perona quickly left to get food for Masa, which Kalifa also followed. "I will help you."

  Whewo left, a asked worriedly, "Was this oppo s?" After all, it was the first time seeing Masa take a rest, which showed the ption of his energy was high, and frankly, it made her worried.

  "He was, but I defeated him."

  Yes, even if Teach was defeated by him, it didn't mean that it was an easy battle, as Masa's energy ption was high, especially when he kept using a powerful teique so many times.

  'But my sword of light wasn't that powerful.'

  Masa thought that his sword of light could work like Excalibur or EA in the world of Fate, but it seemed that his power was far from enough.

  Pika Pika no Mi was good, and there were many things that one could do with a light, but he realized that the damage caused by a light was low.

  However, it wasn't because the power of light was weak; it was because he hadn't tapped all the potential of the Pika Pika no Mi, yet this was normal, especially when all Masa were busy with many of their own researbsp;

  "What was his power? I saw that it was kind of dark."

  "Yami Yami no Mi." Masa didn't think that it was necessary to hide all of his abilities from his women, but then again, he didn't o show everything.

  "Yami Yami no Mi? So, the power of darkness?"

  "Yeah." Masa opened his palm, and a darkness emerged from it. "It is mine now."

  "Wow..."

  a was surprised and happy since Masa had bee stronger.

  " I touch it?"

  "Go ahead."

  "Okay." Stretg her hand, a touched the lump of darkness curiously before she felt weak all of a sudden. "Huh?! I 't use my Devil Fruit!"

  "Yeah. This Devil Fruit is special."

  This was the speess of the Yami Yami no Mi, the Devil Fruit that was sought by Bckbeard, so much that he threw away his stable life as a member of the Whitebeard Pirate without hesitation to get this Devil Fruit.

  It was a uype of Logia fruit that allowed him to trol the power of darkness, but despite being a Logia-type, it didn't give the user the ability to turn their body into darkness, like how any ia-type, yet if ohought that it was weak, then they would be sorry.

  Darkness.

  While in the modern world, it was just the absence of light, Masa thought differently, especially in religion; it was the two matters created after a void was darkness.

  Light and darkness.

  Day and night.

  Yang and Yin.

  The opposite of the light had always been the darkness, so one could tell how powerful the darkness was, right?

  On his body, not only the power of light but also the power of darkness resided.

  Two powers that would collide somehow mixed together, yet this power of darkness wasn't perfect. It was quite simir to the power of the light of the Pika Pika no Mi, which forced him to devour the fallen ao gain the holy property within his light.

  So, simir to the Pika Pika no Mi, if Masa wao add an occult-type property of darkness into the Yami Yami no Mi, then he could only devour a creature of darkness.

  'Well, I am a devil.'

  Yet, even if he was a devil, a creature of darkness, his power wasn't eveed to darkness, which made him helpless.

  'However, this power is still strong.'

  What is darkness?

  This could be answered with many different answers; basically, it was an abstract existence, which was why, despite being a Logia-type, it didn't give the user the ability to turn into a, but the basic applications of the Yami Yami no Mi allowed him to manipute darkness in the form of gas, liquid, or even solid, and at the same time, allowed him to have a unique property of gravity, which was absorbed.

  Darkness and absorption.

  If the two bined, what would e to mind?

  Bckhole.

  The further development of Ton Ton no Mi might enable him to create a bck hole, but the Yami Yami no Mi might allow him to trol the bck hole.

  "So this Devil Fruit absorb and pletely nullify the powers of other Devil Fruits?" a was dumbfounded.

  "Yes."

  "Aren't you invincible, then?"

  If Masa could nullify all powers, then wasn't he the stro?

  "Did you fet about Haki?"

  "ht!"

  With Haki, one could nullify the effect of the power of the Devil Fruit.

  Or rather, the master of Haki could even be immuo the power of Devil Fruit.

  "Still, you are basically invincible, right?" a didn't think that anyone could defeat her man. "Even if you are about to lose, you run away with the speed of light. By then, who even chase you?"

  Masa only smiled, but then again, he really wondered what the world of One Piece thought of the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika being the stro Devil Fruit.

  Still, if he had to give an ahen—

  Fate.

  Probably due to dev Bckbeard, Masa knew well how fate worked in this world.

  Everything redetermined.

  Who was the bad guy? Who was the good guy? Who was the vilin? Who was the savior?

  Everything had beeermined from the beginning in this world, and those who weren't chosen could only succumb and live in torment in this world until their savior, Nika, came.

  Yes, all of their hard work, struggle, and efforts were meaningless, and all they could do was just wait for fate and pray for their savior, Nika, to e.

  However, Yami Yami no Mi was the oehat could break that fate si was the only ability that allowed the user to nullify the power of Devil Fruit, which meant causing a strong Devil Fruit, even Nika, to be deactivated.

  Still, because of that, Masa knew well that to maximize the power of the Yami Yami no Mi, then he could only choose that Devil Fruit, which made him uo eat the Goro no Mi, the favorite Devil Fruit of Masa of Mahouka.

  'Sorry, I will make sure to get that ter when the fifth Masa appears.'

  Yup, to eat the Goro no Mi, Masa could only wait for the fifth Masa, but before that, he had to talk about his destination since as he could eat eight Devil Fruits, he had to maximize it fully.
