Soul Energy, Devil Fruit Stealing Experiment

Chapter 92 Soul Energy, Devil Fruit Stealing Experiment

Sylvanas was somewhat worried about Rhodes's soul energy.

Whether it's signing a soul contract or a demon enslavement contract, both require consuming one's own soul energy; otherwise, a warlock could continuously summon demons.

Then, by enslaving the enemy, given enough time, one could easily create an army of demons.

Rhodes hasn't recovered the soul energy he used to sign with Whitebeard!

We shouldn't be able to sign a second person in the short term, and it wouldn't be worth wasting the opportunity on someone like him.

This guy's ability is only to help himself create the Forsaken; it's of no use to Rhodes.

"I can't, but you can! Sylvanas, your soul power is extremely strong right now."

"After consuming the Fruit of the Underworld, the most important thing is the enhancement of your soul," Rhodes said.

Signing a soul contract is a very precious opportunity, and only those with sufficiently strong combat power would allow Rhode to waste his soul energy.

Rhode's soul energy is currently recovering, and he will not sign a second contract until it is fully restored.

However, while he himself could not, Sylvanas could. After consuming the Soul Fruit, Sylvanas's soul had become much stronger.

In the original story, Brook's soul was capable of many things, even to some extent countering Big Mom's Soul-Soul Fruit.

Moreover, Sylvanas, being an undead creature, is more adept at using soul abilities.

"If you put it that way, then it's not entirely impossible."

"Once we return to Azeroth, I'll prepare some materials for converting him into a Death Knight, then I'll enslave him," Sylvanas said thoughtfully, nodding.

"Or we have another way, you have many loyal dark rangers under your command."

"Just pick one person from here, and then eat that guy's fruit," Rhodes said.

"That's a good idea. Our Devil Fruit stealing experiment can probably begin soon," Sylvanas said.

Rhodes and Sylvanas nodded to each other, ignored Moria's frantic shouting, and left the prison, returning to Kaido's residence on Onigashima.

There are only two fates awaiting this fat man: either he will be transformed into a death knight and enslaved, or he will be killed and have his Devil Fruit powers stolen.

"That's how it is, Father-in-law. We plan to begin our Devil Fruit extraction experiments," Rhodes said.

"Hmm, will we be able to steal the Devil Fruit or not? I've been eyeing Orochi's Yamata no Orochi Fruit for a long time," Kaido said.

If Rhodes and Sylvanas succeed, that would be wonderful, and I wouldn't need to go through the trouble of finding Blackbeard anymore.

"We're not entirely confident yet. Why don't you go and capture two Zoan-type Devil Fruit users so we can test it out first?" Rod said.

Now, Sylvanas and I only know the principle: first, we need to extract the power of the Devil Fruit and then inject it into an ordinary fruit.

However, we still need to conduct research and experiments to carry out the actual operation, so Kaido, you need to provide us with some materials.

"You idiot, even ordinary Zoan-type Devil Fruits are very precious. How about I give you a few artificial Devil Fruit users to experiment with?" Kaido said.

You little brat, do you think Devil Fruit users are commonplace? Even Zoan-type Devil Fruit users are rare.

Kaido's plan was to first experiment with artificial Devil Fruits. Many of Kaido's subordinates were artificial Devil Fruit users, but he intended to use these subordinates for death experiments.

It's obviously a bit inappropriate, after all, as the boss, you can't slaughter your subordinates for no reason.

These artificial Zoan Devil Fruit users are the backbone of the Beasts Pirates, not just any random nobody.

Just then, a new batch of artificial Devil Fruits was delivered, and Kaido planned to find a few of the slaves he had captured earlier and have them take the artificial fruits to participate in the experiment.

The next day, Kaido personally selected one hundred slaves and made them eat the artificial Devil Fruits that the clown had sent.

As a result, out of 100 people, 91 became laughing hysterically, while only nine successfully gained Devil Fruit powers and grew animal characteristics.

These nine test subjects were quickly sent to Rhodes and Sylvanas's residence.

"Based on what we saw that day, we need to kill the Devil Fruit users first, then extract their Devil Fruit abilities and inject them into a fruit. That's the procedure," Rhodes said.

Now a crucial problem arises: one can absorb both one's own life force and the Queen's life force, and then inject this power into the fruit.

That way, you can steal the Devil Fruit's power.

"Let's take the first step and see if we can extract their Devil Fruit abilities," Sylvanas said.

Rhodes nodded, and the two quickly began the experiment. They picked out the first unlucky guy, then cut his throat, and then Rhodes took over the life-draining process.

Unfortunately, the warlock's Life Drain skill seems to only drain living things.

Since nothing can be sucked out of a person who has already died, Rhodes's life siphon skill failed immediately.

Next up is the Queen's life-stealing ability, a unique ability of the Banshee, which was tested after the second unlucky victim was killed.

Sylvanas activated her power, but unfortunately, this time she extracted souls, not Devil Fruit abilities.

"There seems to be a problem with our procedure. We've misunderstood a crucial point. You're absorbing life force, while I'm absorbing soul and life, but these aren't Devil Fruit abilities." Sylvanas said, frowning as she looked at the two dead test subjects.

"So what you mean is that our plan has failed just like that?" Rhodes asked.

"No! We've both eaten Devil Fruits, so we know what the power of those Devil Fruits is. This time, when we cast our spells, we'll act together and not absorb their life energy or anything else, but rather absorb the fruit's power," Sylvanas said.

Rhodes nodded, and soon the two conducted their third experiment, resulting in the death of yet another unfortunate soul.

Then this time, Rhodes and the Queen simultaneously cast spells, using the Devil Fruit energy within their bodies as a guide, to begin absorbing another kind of power besides life and soul.

This time, the two could clearly sense a different kind of energy, something completely different from life energy and soul energy, that had been drawn out.

Unfortunately, the two were not very skilled, and this time they only managed to absorb half of the special energy before failing.

"Theoretically, it's feasible, but we're not very skilled at it. If we put in more effort and increase the attraction, the Devil Fruit power will dissipate if the Devil Fruit user dies for too long," Rhodes said.

When a true Devil Fruit user dies, their power quickly leaves their body and is reborn as a new Devil Fruit. However, artificial Devil Fruits should simply dissipate.

Sylvanas nodded, and the two began a new round of experiments. In the fourth experiment, more than half of the Devil Fruit's power was extracted.

In the fifth experiment, 70% of the energy was extracted. In the sixth experiment, Sylvanas and Rhodes worked together to finally extract a complete portion of the fruit's energy, but before they could inject it into the fruit, the energy dissipated.

"That guy with the black beard was holding fruit in one hand and absorbing the fruit's power with the other."

"This means the power of this Devil Fruit dissipates very quickly. In a moment, while we absorb the energy, we'll each hold a fruit and then infuse the power into it," Rhodes said.

In the eighth experiment, the two of them held a fruit together at the same time and then activated their ability to absorb it.

This time, their experiment was successful. The fruit quickly changed and became an artificial Devil Fruit.

"Let's solidify our skills a bit more, there's just one last test subject left," Rhodes said.

In your ninth experiment, using the same method, Sylvanas and Rhodes successfully extracted the Devil Fruit's energy.

After the experiment was successful, both Rhodes and Sylvanas were somewhat exhausted, so they had their men come in and clean up the test subjects.

The two took a nap and rested for a while. The next morning, they took the two artificially created Devil Fruits and came to Kaido.

"Hahahaha, I never expected that you two could actually succeed. You've given me a huge surprise!" Kaido looked at the two artificial Devil Fruits that had been extracted again, and was extremely excited.

I never expected that these two guys would actually be able to successfully seize the power of the Devil Fruit. Very well, Orochi, it's time for you to die.

"Currently, we can achieve 100% success, but this is just an experiment with artificial Devil Fruits."

"If possible, you'd better capture a real Devil Fruit user and conduct an experiment," Rod said.

Let's try it again with a genuine Devil Fruit user first!

"No problem, I'll have my men go and capture a few Devil Fruit users right away."

Recently in Supernova, there is an Ancient Zoan, a Dragon Fruit user with the Dragon Fruit ability, and an Allosaurus ability user.

"After he arrived in the New World, he expressed his desire to join me, so I had him brought back as well," Kaido said.

This generation of the Worst Generation has many promising new pirates. The fallen Marine Rear Admiral X Drake is Kaido's favorite Devil Fruit user.

"You mean X Drake, one of this year's supernovas, right?" Rhodes asked.

This guy isn't some pirate, but a Navy spy, and he's specifically after you. But that's fine, the experimental material has been delivered right to our doorstep.
