Chapter 99 - Chapter 99: Hellhound Girl, the Savage Berlos

In the black culture fluid, a small fragment of a Devil Fruit floated and sank intermittently.

Upon closer inspection, one could clearly see that the entirely black fruit was covered with dark red patterns resembling molten fissures, constantly flickering on and off.

These red patterns were oddly shaped, as if three distorted beast heads were forcibly merged together.

Though only a small piece remained, the fruit still emitted a soul-shaking ferocity, brutality, and a deathly aura emanating from the deepest abyss.

As the black culture fluid continuously produced numerous bubbles, the temperature in the entire laboratory rose by several degrees out of nowhere, and the air became scorching and foul.

This was precisely the effect of the Zoan Type, Dog-Dog Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Hellhound Form.

Indeed, the second Mythical Zoan Beast Girl to be born was another species that could significantly alter the current dynamics of the Beast Girl Legion.

She did not belong to the most numerous feline or snake attributes, nor to the most powerful dragon attribute.

Similar to the rat attribute of the recently born Fire Rat, she represented the canine lineage.

And currently, under Brian's command, this lineage had only one Beast Girl at the bottom in terms of strength.

It could only be said that Dog Girl was finally about to straighten her back, just like Bat Girl.

Ah, having connections higher up really makes a difference.

As expected, Dog Girl's expression was already becoming excited; she had clearly realized it.

Sss~

With a soft sound, the remaining Devil Fruit completely dissolved, fully integrating into the clone's body.

"ROAR!!!"

At the moment of complete fusion, the entire laboratory shook violently, as if a roar from the abyss echoed directly in everyone's minds.

The clone began to glow, and the pitch-black nutrient fluid in the culture dish surged like a bursting flood, repeatedly impacting the dish. Dark red patterns pulsed and spread like blood vessels in the darkness!

The high-end culture dish, crafted from top-tier materials, emitted a strained hum under the repeated impacts.

A violent, ferocious, and destructive mental assault swept through like a tangible storm!

Apart from Brian, who remained unmoved thanks to his formidable mental strength, the other Beast Girls all paled drastically.

Even Lion Girl and Fire Rat, who were also Mythical Zoan Beast Girls, felt somewhat uncomfortable; the aura was deeply unsettling to them.

Green and red energy fields appeared around their bodies, shielding them from the mental assault.

Among the remaining Beast Girls, even the proud ones like Ella and Feixue, the gloomy Aola, and the adorably naive Tuan Rong—all Ancient Species Beast Girls—felt extremely uncomfortable.

This was a natural condescension from a superior to an inferior, impossible to block. Their strength did not allow them to do so, leaving them only with passive defense.

If the Ancient Species were affected like this, the Common Types were even worse off.

All of them collapsed as if plagued by nightmares, their faces pale and drenched in cold sweat.

The only one among the weaker present who remained unaffected was Otohime, who was not a Beast Girl and was nestled in Brian's arms.

Awoo~

Awoo~

Inside the pitch-black culture dish, transformations continued to unfold. At times, the nerve-grating sound of chewing could be heard, while at other moments, ear-splitting barks erupted. Dark red flames occasionally surged from the crevices, further raising the laboratory's temperature.

The entire scene resembled a restless gate to the netherworld. Everyone could sense that an extremely ferocious and powerful existence was being forcefully molded within, its formation both arduous and domineering.

Suddenly, all sounds and phenomena ceased abruptly. The black culture dish fell into an eerie silence.

BOOM————

The specially-made culture dish finally succumbed to the immense internal pressure, violently bursting apart.

Fragments of darkness mixed with dark red hellfire scattered in all directions. A wave of scorching heat carrying the scent of sulfur and death swept through the entire laboratory!

From within the smoke and flames, a massive and ferocious figure slowly rose to its feet.

She stood over two meters tall, her physique athletic and brimming with explosive power. Her limbs were long and robust, covered in short, rigid fur resembling obsidian. Beneath this fur coiled muscles containing terrifying strength.

Her entire body, including the skin on her face, was pitch black, reflecting a visage that was both fearsome and strikingly beautiful. At a glance, her face radiated wildness and was saturated with a brutal aura.

On either side of her cheeks, two orange-red flame patterns resembling lightning bolts continued to burn.

Most striking was her curvaceous figure—descriptions like "voluptuous" fell short. Not merely ample, but exceedingly generous, truly embodying the character of a Hellhound Girl.

Her energy-formed attire was minimalistic and savage, composed of a few strands of what appeared to be charred ancient leather, barely concealing key areas. This fully displayed her primitive, domineering, and unrestrained ferocity.

The Hellhound Girl's crimson pupils slowly shifted, finally locking onto Brian. With a voice echoing as if from the depths of hell, she spoke.

"Mythical Zoan-type Hellhound Girl, I have come in accordance with the contract."

Her voice was filled with power and unquestionable authority, the menacing aura causing even Griffin to narrow her eyes slightly.

The griffin's wings instinctively spread a little, tiny green whirlwinds beginning to dance around her—a natural reaction when facing an equal threat!

Brian sensed the abyssal, vast Netherworld Power within the Hellhound Girl, along with her burning, violent will. This power was undoubtedly at the Admiral Candidate Level, and due to its unique nature, it might be even more extreme in terms of destruction and intimidation.

"Berlos, welcome. This is the proof of our connection."

Brian's expression remained unchanged as he plucked a Millet-Millet Fruit and offered it to the Hellhound Girl. Facing such a ferocious beast, he had to demonstrate absolute control.

Fortunately, through technological means during their creation, Beast Girls were imprinted with unwavering loyalty in their minds. Combined with the Millet-Millet Fruit forming a dual safeguard, it was foolproof.

Berlos gave a slight nod. She extended a clawed hand covered in black fur; the hellfire did not burn the fruit but instead parted around it like a tame pet.

She took the fruit and swallowed it.

Ding~

The moment the connection was established, Brian felt a torrent of raging heat, yet also a strange power flowing into his body that was filled with the dead silence of the underworld!

His vitality seemed to have achieved a dangerous balance between burning and freezing, with his soul strength and resistance to negative energy undergoing a qualitative leap!

In the Star Chart within his mind, the star representing the Hellhound Girl suddenly ignited. Its radiance was an interweaving of profound black and dark red, like a miniature black hole vortex, exuding a ferocious aura capable of devouring everything!

"Contract established," Berlos uttered in a low voice, her tone still icy and filled with authority.

Immediately after, she turned her head, sweeping her gaze over every Beast Girl present.

Wherever her eyes fell, nearly everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

It was the gaze of one who guards the gates of hell, the gaze that scrutinizes the sins of souls, the gaze of a predator sizing up its prey!
