Chapter 239 - Chapter 239: The Invisible One's Sneak Attack

"Get out of there quickly!"

Steel Bone Kong witnessed this scene and roared like a massive bell, realizing that he could perceive the might of Luna's move; its power was great enough to instantly and completely obliterate an Admiral Level powerhouse, leaving absolutely nothing behind.

Unfortunately, he spoke too late, and furthermore, this was the speed of light—there was no escaping it in a matter of moments.

Even the lightning-fast Velociraptors and Sickle-Clawed Dragons, which were within the Ancient Zoan Dragon-Dragon Devil Fruit lineage, could never move faster than light.

Moreover, although those people possessed the recovery abilities of Ancient Zoans, they had not fully recovered, and having been beaten into a sorry state by Luna earlier, their physical exhaustion was already extremely severe.

Ultimately, the four men were swallowed by this world-shattering, terrifying disaster of destruction. Their screams, like those of pigs being slaughtered, rang out piteously as the four Dinosaur men were annihilated.

In the end, their bodies completely disintegrated, turning into flecks of residue, eventually vanishing without a trace.

However, Luna suddenly noticed something peculiar, perhaps because she had already become Greeza and was closely connected to the void.

She found that although the four men had turned to ash, four powerful energies were still lingering in the air, undetectable by ordinary people, though they were about to dissipate instantly.

Luna immediately thought of certain aspects of Devil Fruits: that after a person dies, the Devil Fruit Ability dissipates, then seeks a new fruit to serve as a Host, transforming it into a Devil Fruit.

But Devil Fruits seem quite picky; for example, one type of Ability can only reside in a specific type of fruit, some only in apples, and some only in oranges.

As if struck by inspiration, Luna quickly retrieved an apple, an orange, a watermelon, and a pear from her storage ring.

She then placed them inside the void space she had reopened.

She then immediately performed the Dark Thunderstorm Absorption again, and a golden energy channel violently opened on her chest.

Four cyan-blue energy arms immediately extended from within, and Luna controlled them to stretch toward the spot where the four men had been annihilated.

Initially, the people on the World Government side did not understand what Luna was trying to do.

However, in the very next second, they were all dumbfounded, their eyes wide as copper bells, their mouths open wide enough to fit a durian, their faces filled with expressions of disbelief and astonishment, as if they had witnessed the most incredible thing in the world.

They saw the cyan-blue arms appear like ghosts at the spot where the four men were destroyed, gently grasping in the void. Four energy masses suddenly materialized like summoned spirits and quickly condensed into spheres.

The cyan-blue arms immediately snatched them into the void space with lightning speed.

Luna had previously researched the Abilities of these four Devil Fruits in the devil fruit encyclopedia, and she knew that, just like the power of the Dinosaur, they needed to reside within a certain type of fruit.

This was why she had deliberately taken out these four fruits beforehand.

Therefore, the moment the energies came into contact with the fruits—perhaps because these four energies truly possessed sentience—they eagerly took up residence within them.

Just like that, the four fruits instantly transformed into Devil Fruits.

Luna was overjoyed to witness this, and she quickly retrieved the four Devil Fruits from the void space, never having expected to truly succeed.

Although these native Devil Fruits of the One Piece World didn't impress her, she was about to obtain the Devil Fruit Weakness Neutralization Potion, and she had already decided to pursue the path of building a large organization.

Therefore, hunting down Devil Fruit Users in the future and retrieving their Devil Fruit Abilities after their deaths would undoubtedly be a matter of crucial importance.

At this moment, when Steel Bone Kong and the others saw the Devil Fruits in Luna's hand, they were all stunned, because they instantly recognized them as the four Dragon-Dragon Devil Fruits previously possessed by the four men.

However, what astonished them was how miraculous Luna's method was—this girl was actually able to firmly grasp the recently deceased and still lingering Devil Fruit Abilities, and then, through some mysterious means, make them revert back into Devil Fruits.

This Ability was truly shocking; with this, Luna could freely hunt for Devil Fruits across the seas.

After those Devil Fruit Users died, their Abilities would surely fall into Luna's hands, and this fact was extremely terrifying and disadvantageous for them.

"Hmm?" But suddenly, Luna sensed an unusual aura appearing right beside her. She immediately swung a blade, still using Saint Garling's sword.

Luna knew clearly that there was someone next to her, and without a doubt, anyone who could appear here with an ability resembling invisibility or transparency must be an enemy.

However, the Clear-Clear Devil Fruit was clearly still in Absalom's hands, so the Devil Fruit this person possessed was definitely not the Clear-Clear Fruit.

Could it be a simple Invisibility Fruit? If Luna remembered correctly, the devil fruit encyclopedia did indeed contain a record of an Invisibility Fruit.

However, this Devil Fruit only provided invisibility and did not possess the ability to phase through objects like the Clear-Clear Fruit.

But Luna was still a little confused; this didn't seem as simple as just an Invisibility Fruit.

Then, in the next moment, she was even more bewildered, because she felt her slash miss its target.

The opponent seemed to drift past like a sheet of paper carried by the wind, dodging her unremarkable, shadowless slash.

Paper Art.

Luna quickly recalled this technique from the Rokushiki.

A defensive technique that allows the user to release all the tension in their body, controlling it as effortlessly as drawing on paper, allowing for flexible combat application in various situations.

Used well, it produces miraculous effects; in short, it is much stronger than Iron Body.

"It seems to be a master of Paper Art, or rather, a master of the Rokushiki,"

Luna chuckled, because she immediately used Future Sight and understood the whole story.

But honestly, she also felt a bit disgusted.

Fortunately, she had already locked onto the guy's location.

"Ptoo..." A sound somewhat similar to a frog spitting out its tongue rang out.

It was invisible, but it stabbed toward her like a sharp spear.

Luna immediately applied pure Armament Haki Hardening, coating her blade, and slashed out.

Following a crash and a painful scream, a long tongue was instantly severed and appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Heh heh, as expected, it's a Zoan-type, common species, Lizard-Lizard Fruit, Chameleon form User."

Luna chuckled, noting that there were many different types of chameleons, and she just didn't know which type this guy was.

Regardless, whether she was disgusted or not, the Chameleon Devil Fruit was still decent. Luna immediately, under the horrified gazes of everyone present.

Including Steel Bone Kong and Saint Garling.
