: Aruru Returns to Her Young Self; Aizen Creates the Brain-Brain Fruit

Chapter 180: Aruru Returns to Her Young Self; Aizen Creates the Brain-Brain Fruit

"this----"

Seeing this, Roger and Harald were both filled with disbelief.

Roger knew that Keiko was very capable; she had easily controlled him before.

But to everyone's surprise, she actually managed to cut Loki in half with a single blow!

And the move you just used, that was divine evasion, wasn't it?!

It's my own move!

Who exactly is this woman?!

This is way too illegal and too outrageous!

While Roger might have had some expectations, Harald was completely stunned!

He knew Loki's strength better than anyone else; if given another two years, Loki would definitely surpass him!

Even now, it's already very close to being myself.

Yet, even so, Loki was utterly powerless against this woman!

"Loki!"

Harald rushed over, looked at his son, and asked in anguish, "What happened to you?"

"I----"

The most bewildered person has to be Loki himself.

He personally experienced Keiko's knife wound, and he never expected it to end like this!

He had just had a fierce battle with Elensger, during which he was filled with arrogance and believed himself to be the strongest and most terrifying being in the world.

In the blink of an eye, he was knocked to the ground by Keiko!

They don't even have the ability to resist?!

But most importantly, even though he had been cut in half, why didn't he feel any pain?

"He'll be alright."

Keiko said calmly, and with a gentle wave of her left hand, which was not holding the knife, Loki's upper and lower body, which had been separated, were reconnected the next moment.

She just used the power of the Op-Op Fruit, a power that can directly cause cutting damage to people, but can also produce only a cutting effect without causing harm, like performing surgery.

After all, the ultimate goal of surgery is to save lives, not to kill them.

Seeing Huizi's amazing skills, everyone was speechless.

What exactly is this woman's ability?

Harald frowned and asked, "Excuse me—who are you?"

Now that Loki was alright, he naturally wouldn't use too much force against Keiko.

Keiko then said, "Beltz asked me to help you, but I won't personally intervene unless you're in a life-or-death situation."

"Belts————"

Upon hearing the name, Harald suddenly realized and said, "So you're Beltz's friend. Loki was wrong just now, don't take it to heart."

"It's nothing."

Huizi shook her head and said, "I've already taught him a lesson."

She glanced at everyone again and said, "Perhaps you think Elbaf's fighting strength is already quite high, but I can tell you clearly, it's not enough."

Not enough?

These words left them looking at each other in bewilderment.

Is that still not enough?

real or fake?

Harald originally thought that with his return, along with Elensger and Loki, things should be pretty much settled.

The arrival of Roger's pirate crew was a truly unexpected and delightful surprise.

Keiko actually said that this was still not enough?

"Shiki the Golden Lion will be here later," Elensger said in a deep voice. "I've called him, but he shouldn't be here for a while."

"With Shiki added, it should be barely enough," Keiko said. "This battle will show you the true terror of the World Government, and Elbaf will inevitably experience a bloodbath."

"Harald, I advise you to temporarily move all the ordinary Titans away, leaving only those Titans who want to participate in the war and are capable of doing so."

"Is it really that exaggerated?" Aruru spoke up at this moment. "The World Government's fighting power may be strong, but will they really go all out for Elbaf?"

Whether the World Government's fighting power can surpass that of so many people working together is another matter, but is it really necessary to mobilize all our forces to deal with them?

"This is far from the full strength of the World Government's forces."

Keiko said meaningfully, "Don't judge the current world government with your past perspectives."

As she spoke, she looked at Aruru and asked, "Aruru, are you prepared to sacrifice your life for Elbaf?"

"Of course!" said Aruru. "I've lived for nearly four hundred years, and I've long since lived enough."

"Then I'm relieved." Keiko said, reaching out her hand again, and the next moment, Aruru's body changed!

Fruits of the Year, Retrospective of Youth!

The Fruit of Every Year isn't just for traveling to the future; it can also make people younger!

With Keiko's abilities, she could easily restore Aruru to her peak strength!

Don't underestimate this giant elder. At his peak, Aruru was an extraordinary powerhouse. He was the most powerful being on this sea three hundred years ago!

That's why the giant race is considered too overpowered in the One Piece world; basically, every generation produces a top-tier being.

Because of the lack of combat power, Keiko simply let Aruru return to her peak.

Aruru felt a strange power acting on her body. The next moment, her long-dried body was filled with vitality again, and she felt the fullness of that power she had never felt before!

"this----"

Aruru looked at his hands in disbelief. His old hands had become delicate and tender. They were clearly his hands when he was young!

"Is this... God?"

Even though Aruru was very knowledgeable, he had never experienced such a feeling before. He murmured to himself, almost regarding Keiko as a god!

Yes, perhaps only a god could do such a thing?

He cut Loki in half at the waist with one stroke, and then stitched him back together.

It's just a matter of raising your hand to make yourself feel young again.

Within Huizi's tiny body, there seemed to be a tremendous power that could change the world!

Lady Aruru

Harald was stunned to see Aluru's body growing stronger and stronger.

The others also looked dumbfounded.

"Who—who exactly are you?"

Harald looked at Keiko and asked the question again.

"You should know me."

Keiko said to Harald indifferently, "You once attacked the Soul Society; those people were my subordinates."

Okay, that sounds a bit arrogant.

Tsunayoshi is the head of the five noble families, but she does not directly lead the Gotei 13.

However, the Gotei 13 have an obligation to protect them.

So it's not impossible to say that the Gotei 13 were her subordinates.

"You—you are the captain of the Gotei 13?" Harald's expression changed.

He did indeed attack the Soul Society on Belz's orders, and even engaged in fierce battles with several captains.

Now that I've heard Huizi say this, could it be that someone has come to avenge their subordinate?

But he quickly dismissed the idea.

That's impossible.

After all, if they came for revenge, they wouldn't have been able to restore Loki to his original state, let alone make Aruru young again.

Keiko said calmly, "Belts and I are friends, so I know your previous intentions. You didn't really want to be an enemy of the Soul Society."

"So you don't need to worry. This time, I will not only not pursue your actions in Soul Society, but I will also help you fight against the World Government."

Harald breathed a sigh of relief, deeply impressed by Huizi's words. What a magnanimous heart she possessed!

"Thank you so much," Harald said sincerely. "Please don't hesitate to ask if there's anything I can do for you in the future!"

Huizi hummed in agreement, then looked at Elensger and said, "I'll leave this to you for now. Unless Im intervenes, I won't get involved myself."

"I'll have Gremy come again in a while; I have some things to take care of these days."

Ellensger nodded, effectively taking over command from Keiko.

Then Keiko disappeared from everyone's sight.

After she left, the remaining people were still immersed in the scenes that had just unfolded.

"Harald? You know that lady?" Aruru couldn't help but look at Harald. Harald quickly replied, "No, I don't know her, but just as she said, I injured some of her subordinates before, but they weren't in any danger."

Aruru breathed a sigh of relief. The opponent was too strong. If Harald had really angered him, it would have been a disaster for Elbaf.

"Seireitei—? What kind of place is this?"

Roger was puzzled when he heard the name: "How come I've never heard of it before?"

Roger wasn't the Pirate King yet, but he was definitely well-informed, yet he had never heard of a place called the Soul Society.

"How should I put it—" Harald thought for a moment, then explained bluntly, "I guess it's like the underworld? It's the world that people go to after they die, and there are many powerful people there."

"!The world you go to after death?!"

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this!

They all knew about the Underworld, but no one could have imagined that such a world actually existed!

And after going to the underworld, can one return to the world of the living?!

Aruru couldn't help but ask, "Harald, could it be that the time you disappeared was always there—"

“That’s right.” Harald glanced at Elensig first, and after finding that the latter had no objection, he nodded and said, “The world of the dead is very large and is divided into different areas.”

"The area where the Soul Society is located is called the Soul Society, while I spend most of my time in Hueco Mundo."

"Ehrensger is the 'virtual' in the virtual world."

People looked at Ellensger again, and he said calmly, "You don't need to know too much about these things. That's the world of the dead. In the case of the living, only someone like Harald, who was brought in by Beltz, can do so."

"Otherwise, even if you die, you might not be able to enter Soul Society or Hueco Mundo."

"I'm still so ignorant!" Roger exclaimed upon hearing this. "There are so many things in this world that I don't know! I really want to go and see the world of the dead!"

"We don't want to!" Jabba exclaimed. "That's a place only the dead go! At least while I'm alive, I definitely don't want to go there!"

The others wholeheartedly agreed, and Roger couldn't help but laugh: "That's true! Our world of the living has countless secrets waiting to be explored! We don't have time to explore the world of the dead!"

"Alright, almost everyone has arrived now."

Elensger said, "Then evacuate the people during this final period. There's no need to take them out of Elbaf. Just keep the Titans who can't fight in one place. I'll naturally find a way to protect them."

Harald also felt the urgency of the situation. Elbaf was a very large island, and mobilizing all the Titans on the island and selecting refugees and fighters from among them was no easy task.

"Harald, I'm leaving this to you. I need to readjust to this body." Aruru said that he had regained his youth, but this body was now too unfamiliar to him.

Giants typically live for around three hundred years, but he has lived for nearly four hundred years. At such an advanced age, returning to his peak naturally requires some time to adjust.

The World Government's intention to attack Elbaf is a major undertaking that cannot be prepared for overnight.

After all, this is almost equivalent to starting a high-level war.

Therefore, both sides are making preparations during this final period.

While they were busy mobilizing their forces, in the world of Bleach, Aizen's research had reached its final stage.

"Brain-Brain Fruit————"

He injected the last drop of blood into a fruit that looked like an apple in front of him, and the next moment, something incredible happened.

Strange patterns suddenly appeared on this apple, as if it contained some kind of mysterious power!

It worked!

Aizen has successfully created the Brain-Brain Fruit!

He has been studying Devil Fruits for a long time since he discovered them.

With the various research support provided by Keiko, Inazuma's progress in this area has been remarkable.

After all, in the world of One Piece, Vegapunk has already thoroughly researched Devil Fruits.

Keiko only needs to bring this information to the Bleach world and hand it over to Aizen, and Aizen's progress will naturally be extremely fast.

Keiko made Aizen create the Brain-Brain Fruit, the first fruit he created.

Aizen will create many more Devil Fruits in the future.

This is preparation for him to create the last Devil Fruit that he himself wants to eat.

Through gradual accumulation, he will create that god-level Devil Fruit.

Now, he needs to fulfill the promise he made to Keiko.

This Devil Fruit was originally prepared for Keiko.

"You've become stronger."

Upon seeing Keiko again after so long, Aizen murmured, "Although she looks no different from when we last met, I just have this feeling."

Huizi at this moment —

Unfathomable!

When I met Keiko before, I could sense that she was very strong, and she had indeed shown the strength to defeat the demon Whitebeard in the Soul Society, but it was far less than the pressure she was putting on Aizen now!

No----

This is not simply a matter of becoming stronger; it's more than that—

It's like a complete transformation!
