However, the confusion in my heart could not be resolved.
Even in such an era, many legends of ghosts and spirits still existed! And humans held ghosts and spirits in great awe, daring not to offend them in the slightest.
At the origin of the strange phenomenon, on that nameless mountain peak where lightning flashed and thunder roared intermittently, a figure could indeed be seen appearing and disappearing amidst the interplay of lightning.
That person was Ye Chen. After defeating the Third Raikage, he did not leave the Land of Lightning immediately, but instead used the special environment of the Land of Lightning to cultivate.
Tempering his body with the power of thunder! Such a uniquely advantageous training environment is extremely rare! With the support of a sage body, the limits he can break through far surpass those of the Third Raikage.
Counting the time, it has been exactly three months and six days; he has already mastered the Thunder Escape Body Refining Technique.
Crackling and popping! Thick arcs of electricity, as thick as fingers, flickered and danced on Ye Chen's body, sending chills down one's spine.
Even his fingertips were crackling with light, and this electric light fell on Ye Chen.
Ye Chen, however, was completely unharmed, his expression remaining unchanged and calm.
Arcs of electricity flickered continuously between heaven and earth. Almost everything around him was stirred by his chakra, transforming into a vast sea of lightning. Endless bolts of lightning danced here, and the aura of lightning attribute was almost at its peak.
This cloud of mist could no longer be called mist; it should be called a Thunder Pool. Ye Chen seemed to be the master of thunder, every cell in his body rejoicing, absorbing the power of thunder and growing stronger! In nearly three months, Ye Chen had reached the pinnacle of lightning techniques; he knew all three Raikage's techniques.
Thunder armor, lightning speed, and even the penetrating power of lightning release! If he were to fight the Third Raikage again, even without the Great Buddha, he could crush the Third Raikage with this body tempered by lightning.
Another gain was that he successfully fused with the Eight-Tails' chakra, transforming it into a chakra seed and nurturing it within his body.
Possessing the chakra of the Nine-Tails, Five-Tails, and Eight-Tails, the conditions for achieving Six Paths Sage Mode are not that far off.
Even without gathering all the tailed beast chakra, one could still use Six Paths Sage Mode with the current amount of tailed beast chakra.
The Six Paths Sage Technique was created to counter the Ten-Tails; essentially, it uses the power of a tailed beast to fight the power of another tailed beast.
Chapter 380 Awakening of Conqueror's Haki, Summoning the Pirate Empress

Not only did he win the fierce battle against the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, the Third Raikage, but the system also randomly generated two treasure chests! One was a gold chest, and the other a platinum chest! Undoubtedly, the platinum chest was the most valuable, as it almost always contained a Devil Fruit.
On the nameless mountaintop of the Land of Lightning, shrouded in mist...
With a thought, Ye Chen conjured two treasure chests from the system space, which floated silently in the air.
First, there was the golden treasure chest. Having opened it multiple times, Ye Chen had become able to maintain a calm mindset, so his emotions appeared very stable.
The surface of the golden treasure chest is engraved with luxurious and captivating patterns, making it utterly mesmerizing.
Under the control of thought, its opening slowly moved to both sides, and the inside of the box released dazzling beams of light.
The box opened wide, and after the light faded, a card with a gold border floated silently at the bottom. Ye Chen reached out, and the card flew into his hand automatically, its information simultaneously entering his mind.
[Skill Card: Three-Sword Style: Three Thousand Worlds, Chanting: "Nine mountains and eight seas, without me, I cannot sever the three thousand worlds!"]
"The Three-Sword Style is Zoro's again!"
Ye Chen couldn't help but shake his head; it seemed he truly had an inexplicable connection with Zoro.
Basically, all the sword skills you acquire are Zoro's own! The chances of unlocking other swordsmen's skills are extremely low! However, the Three-Sword Style Ultimate Technique, Great Thousand Worlds, is considered one of the strongest among all of Zoro's skills, and it has shone brightly on many occasions since the Marineford War.
However, it's not very useful for Ye Chen right now. Dual-wielding is still playable, but triple-wielding is a bit bizarre.
Although he has the Flower-Flower Fruit that can conjure countless arms, the thought of the disastrous art style makes me give up.
Moreover, the Three-Sword Style doesn't significantly improve his strength at the moment, since he's not following the path of a swordsman.
There's no need to go to such lengths! However, Ye Chen also thought that he could modify the Three-Sword Style into a One-Sword Style: Three Thousand Worlds that suited him better when he had time in the future. That would still be acceptable; the principle was there, and it shouldn't be too difficult to do.
This time, the gold treasure chest wasn't very useful to him! So Ye Chen opened another treasure chest, a platinum chest! Undoubtedly, platinum is a higher grade than gold, so the items inside would be more valuable! This gave Ye Chen more confidence, and he couldn't help but look forward to it.
The moment the platinum chest was opened, a dazzling light shot out, lasting for a long time before slowly disappearing.
Ye Chen looked over, and instead of what he expected, there was another card at the bottom of the box.
With a thought, the card flew out and landed on [Character Card: Boacock, Emperor of the Amazon Lily Kingdom on Daughter Island, and also...]
Captain of the Kuja Pirates, known as: Pirate Empress
Her stunning beauty has earned her the title of "World's Most Beautiful Woman." She was also one of the original Seven Warlords of the Sea, a user of the Love-Love Fruit, possesses all three types of Haki, and has the potential to become a king.
The cardholder can summon a character using the card, which lasts for three days.
Note: Summoned characters will unconditionally obey the summoner.
After reading the card information, Ye Chen pondered for a long time: was opening the treasure chest this time profitable or not?
So far, he has three character cards: Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and Kaido, one of the Four Emperors of the Beasts Pirates. The summoning time for these two is only one hour.
So Ye Chen hadn't used it, but now he had an extra Pirate Empress card that would last for three days. So, should he summon her or not? As for the summoned character unconditionally obeying him, he didn't know...
(1/2)
Suddenly, an immature thought popped into Ye Chen's mind! *Cough cough!* Ye Chen forced himself to calm down and then opened his attribute panel: [Host: Ye Chen! Ability: Conqueror's Haki 4]
Observation Haki 5, Armament Haki 4
Shave 3, Moonwalk 3, 100 experience points are needed to upgrade to level 1.
Skills: Tornado Ultimate Technique - Thirty-Six Winds of Troubles, Seventy-Two Winds of Troubles, One-Sword Style Lion's Song, Three-Sword Style Great World
Fruits: Flame-Flame Fruit (materialized), Human-Human Fruit (Buddha 5), Gravity Fruit (4)
Flower Fruit 4
Upgrading to the next level requires 100 experience points.
Weapon: Great Grade Sword Enma Twelve-Craft Murakumogiri
Experience points 120
Having accumulated 120,000 experience points through numerous battles, Ye Chen was not surprised.
The real question is how to level up! 120,000 seems like a lot, but just leveling up to level 6 requires 100,000 experience points, which disappears in no time.
Upgrading to level 5 also requires 10,000 experience points, so in any case, there are far more applicants than available points, and it's not enough! After a little thought, Ye Chen upgraded Conqueror's Haki to level 5 and Gravity Fruit to level 5.
The experience points were instantly reduced by 100,000, leaving only 20,000.
At the same time, Ye Chen's body underwent changes! Level 5 is a watershed moment; at this level, Devil Fruits either awaken a second time or develop supernatural powers.
Just like the white flame form of the Flame-Flame Fruit, the invincible golden body of the Great Buddha Fruit 5, and the ability of Observation Haki to hear the voice of all things.
Now that Conqueror's Haki has broken through to level 5, it has also brought about a qualitative change in Ye Chen.
At the center of his brow, there was a faint bulge extending outwards! Ye Chen felt a certain energy in his mind amplify several times over; it was mental power that felt almost tangible.
Truly top-tier Conqueror's Haki can interfere with the material world through sheer willpower; it's no longer that…mysterious, intangible existence! In the original work, the Conqueror's Haki clash between the Four Emperors Whitebeard and Shanks even split the clouds in the sky, demonstrating unfathomable power! Now, Ye Chen feels that while his Conqueror's Haki is still some distance from that of the Four Emperors, it's not unattainable.
Under the influence of this power, a bewitching red flash appeared beneath those black pupils! An invisible wave spread out, continuously surging forth. At this moment, heaven and earth were silent! At this moment, suddenly, a bolt from the blue struck, and the wind and clouds changed dramatically! With a single thought, all things are born; with a single thought, all things perish! Within the Overlord's Haki Domain centered on Ye Chen, from mountains and lakes to a single stone or grain of dust, all existence bowed in worship, celebrating the birth of their king at this moment!
Chapter 381 No matter what I do, I will be forgiven
This content was first published here (second update).
After a period of time, everything returned to calm.
Ye Chen slowly regained his senses from the surge of Conqueror's Haki, and the red light representing Conqueror's Haki in his pupils gradually faded.
Previously, every time he used Conqueror's Haki, his red eyes flashed only briefly.
This time, however, his brain seemed to have undergone some kind of mutation.
A very mysterious power gathered around his eyes, seemingly transforming them.
Her red eyes can be continuously displayed as long as she uses Conqueror's Haki, and unlike before, they don't just intimidate people's minds; it seems to have gained some other ability.
With no one around, Ye Chen cannot conduct his experiment for the time being.
However, the red eyes looked a bit unconventional, something Ye Chen couldn't help but feel helpless about; this kind of change was beyond his control.
As for the Gravity Fruit, it was also upgraded to level 5, but it didn't undergo a second awakening. The only improvement was in its control over gravity. Previously, it could exert gravity suppression at a rate of forty times, but now it's roughly doubled to eighty times, though it hasn't reached a hundred times gravity.
Imagine having a hundred times the gravity applied at will; that would be absolute, all-encompassing suppression. How many ninjas in this world could withstand such pressure?
Unless it involves some special secret techniques, or perhaps gravity suppression that can be reduced, such beings are extremely rare in this world.
Ye Chen stood up. His trip to the Land of Lightning had been successful; he had collected both Lightning Release and Tailed Beast Chakra. There was no need for him to stay any longer.
Since departing from Konoha, including travel time, time spent in the Land of Lightning, and training time, it has been roughly half a year.
Because I've always been striving for a certain goal, I haven't felt any changes as time has passed.
This was destined to be a solitary journey of cultivation, and Ye Chen was already used to being alone, so he didn't feel lonely.
A sudden thought flashed through Lonely Night Chen's mind: hadn't he recently drawn an Empress card, and the effect lasted for three days?
If it's just a one-hour summon card, he's too lazy to use it.
For example, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Doflamingo, and the Four Emperors, Kaido, have always been kept in the system.
Both of them are quite powerful; in the Naruto world, they would definitely be Kage-level beings.
Kaido, in particular, is enormous, a non-human monster.
If it transforms into its dragon form, Ye Chen estimates that this guy could even go toe-to-toe with the Ten-Tails.
These two cards can only be used as bottom cards because of the short time limit.
After all, anything can happen. Although Ye Chen was currently considered one of the strongest people in the Naruto world...
But the future is unpredictable, and who knows what might happen? Perhaps these two cards will have unexpected uses in the future.
