People are in Tiga, start the future of Gamma!

Chapter 889 H-604
"Is this thing made from the Soul Soul Fruit?"

Playing with the soul bottle in his hand, Ace glanced at the mouth of the bottle thoughtfully.

There is no plug, but the light inside seems to be unable to escape.

Hex did not answer Ace's words. Instead, he asked Ace, "What do you think the essence of Devil Fruit is?"

"The product of a power that nature rejects?"

Ace expressed his thoughts. Although people with devil fruit abilities are only rejected by the sea, if you have to say it, these powers are indeed a bit unnatural.

Hex nodded, and then shook his head, "What you said is a little bit right, but it's completely wrong. The power of Devil Fruit is because it violates the laws of the world, so it was rejected by Mother Nature. "

"Let me ask you one more thing, which one of these three things, body, soul, and blood, do you think has anything to do with Devil Fruit abilities?"

Ace hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Soul, right?"

From his research on Devil Fruit so far, Ace feels that this thing is absolutely inseparable from the soul.

First of all, the first point is that the awakening of the animal type Devil Fruit is simpler than the other two types, but it may be controlled by the will of the animal existing in the Devil Fruit itself.

Similar to Impelton's Jailermon, they are the products of failed awakening of animal-type Devil Fruits.

The second point is that Vegapunk can make weapons that can eat animal-type Devil Fruits, but cannot make objects that can eat natural-type and super-type fruits. This is probably because these two types of devil fruits do not contain will.

Another point is that Brooke, who has been dead for decades and only has bones left to move around in the Devil's Triangle, can still use the Underworld Fruit, which means that the fruit's ability has nothing to do with the body and blood.

Hex nodded, "Yes, it is the soul! When I was traveling in the sea, I once read an ancient book. It is said that more than 400 years ago, people discovered that when someone desperately wants to obtain some kind of unnatural When you have some power, or want to realize some special wish, a Devil Fruit will appear in the sea."

"After eating the Devil Fruit, because it carries a power that is not allowed by the orthodox rules of the world, it will be repelled by the mother of nature's sea and cannot enter the sea again."

"After I got the book, I studied painstakingly for decades, and finally combined it with my own Soul Soul Fruit to research the final secret product, the Soul Soul Bottle!"

"As long as you use the soul bottle, you can deprive the soul fragments of the ability user and imprison them in it. When you want to use it, just prepare a carrier for these souls. As long as you have enough time and preparation, then rely on The Soul Bottle will be able to control all Devil Fruit abilities in the world!"

"By then, even the stars in the sky, I am confident that I can pick them off!"

"It's a pity that God is jealous of Yingcai. I want to deprive the soul of the person who has the ability of the surgery fruit so that the immortality surgery will no longer have any burden. My time has come."

Hex sighed and looked at Ace, his eyes full of unwillingness.

In his opinion, the world government, the Celestial Dragons, and the Five Old Stars are all scum!
As long as you give him 50 years, he will definitely become a dictatorial existence forever!

In the main hall, Ace did not interrupt Hex's memories. He knew that for Hex, who had only the remnant soul left, only the memories of the past could make him sure that he was a human being.

"Is this thing really as magical as you say?"

A bottle that could contain people's souls made Ace feel extremely mysterious.

"Of course, this is the brainchild of my life!"

Hex sighed. More than 400 years ago, although he was just an ordinary explorer, secretly he was a terrifying butcher who harvested the lives of people with abilities.

Whether you are a pirate, a navy, an agent of the World Government, or even the princes and nobles of various countries, as long as you are a Devil Fruit user, as long as you fall into the eyes of Hex, you will be noticed and one day become a Hex's Collection.

As for Hex's behavior, even the World Government was not aware of it. After all, if the World Government knew that Hex had this ability, it would be impossible for CP to think that he would use Hex's treasure after looting some treasures. All taken away.

"Intercepting part of the soul and preserving it is a way to live forever."

Esmo stroked his chin. When he was training with Qing Shui Mo, he heard Qing Shui Mo mention that someone was researching the project of quantum information transmission and memory. If that research is successful, a person's memory can be completely integrated into it. into another person's body.

Putting aside blood and body, this is a different kind of immortality.

In this world, memory conversion does not require any advanced technological research at all. Whether it is the mind exchange of memory fruits or surgical fruits, it is a more effective method.

The soul exchange that users with surgical fruit abilities can develop is, in a sense, the eternal life in some people's hearts.

As long as their dominant consciousness is still alive, they don't care at all whose body they use.

"However, you used the Soul Soul Fruit to make this thing. Does that mean that the Soul Soul Fruit has absolute control over this Soul Soul Bottle?"

Ace was playing with the soul bottle, and he asked Hex casually.

Charlotte Lingling is dead, but the Soul Soul Fruit has still not appeared, so should he deal with the Soul Soul Fruit issue?

Hex snorted disdainfully after hearing Ace's words, "Unless someone can develop the Soul Fruit to my level, the only possibility is that the Soul Bottle can restrain the Soul Fruit."

Who is Hex?

The nameless overlord of the sea 400 years ago, although he "didn't like fighting", he left behind countless people.

If the deadline hadn't come suddenly, Hex might not have needed the surgery fruit. He could have developed the ability of soul immortality with the soul fruit alone. This was the super genius 400 years ago.

"This bottle should be your most precious treasure, right? What about this island?"

Ace put the bottle away, but Hex took it out too simply, which made Ace suspicious.

Hex wouldn't want to send him away like CP and leave behind a more precious treasure.

For now, Ace wants to know where the Hex Island floating in the deep sea, with the ability to sail in the deep sea and create a deep sea vortex barrier comes from.

As if hearing Ace's inner thoughts, Hex just waved his hand, and a light curtain appeared in front of Ace.

"It's a little toy made to imitate a video phone bug, so don't worry."

Looking at Fang Che, who was instantly vigilant, Hex explained softly that Hex Island's current navigation in the sea did not rely on external forces, but the pure power of the island.

This explanation only made Ace even more confused.

Simply rely on islands to navigate the ocean?

"Have you ever heard of the ancient weapon, Poseidon?"

Hex deliberately made a nervous expression, as if he was teasing Ace's nerves.Ace nodded noncommittally, "You should be talking about the mermaid princess."

Seeing that Ace actually knew Neptune's secret, Hex immediately felt a little uncomfortable. This was something he couldn't pretend to be.

"400 years ago, the mermaid princess and I were swimming in the deep sea. At that time, we met a sea turtle, a sea king."

"Through the ability of the mermaid princess to communicate with the sea king, we know that the turtle sea king is about to sit down, and it is extremely happy to see the mermaid princess before it dies."

"After my suggestion, I used the ability of the Soul Soul Fruit to place part of the turtle's soul on its shell. After it dies, it can stay in the turtle shell and continue to swim in the sea."

"However, my condition is that the turtle becomes my island turtle..."

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I have so many bad things that I don't know how to express!"

Ace did not hesitate to interrupt Hex, who was about to tell a long story again. This time he really had a lot to say!

"No, you are a Devil Fruit user who dived into the deep sea and befriended the mermaid princess, and also befriended the turtles and sea kings?"

This alone made Ace feel that Hex was lying.

Can people with devil fruit abilities enter water?
Looking at Ace who was a little stunned, Hex shook his head calmly, "Can your generation of Soul Fruit fruit users imbue sea water with soul?"

Ace thought for a while and realized that BIGMOM could enchant the sea of ​​candy, but whether that thing was considered a sea or not was still a question.

Seeing Ace's somewhat troubled expression, Hex raised his head proudly, "Air, clouds, oceans, whether they are tangible or intangible things, I can possess their souls. As long as I wear an air suit or a seawater suit, What’s the point of swimming in the sea?”

Hex enters the sea as a method to isolate seawater.

If today's Devil Fruit users want to enter the ocean without sinking, this is the only way.

Whitebeard's vibrations can shake away the sea water around him.

Akainu's lava can burn seawater.

The ice of the blue pheasant can freeze the sea water.

Kizaru is even better, he can use the refraction of water to prevent himself from getting wet.

Almost all powerful Devil Fruit users have a way to avoid entering the sea, and Hex is no exception.

"Okay, you continue talking."

After the biggest flaw was explained, Ace couldn't say anything else. He could only let Hex continue talking.

To be honest, he really wanted to see the mermaid princess from 400 years ago.

This generation of mermaid princess Shirahoshi is a few years younger than Luffy. Although Ace has never seen her, he can imagine how young she is.

"Anna, the mermaid princess, was my best friend. She passed away not long after the turtle died."

Hex sighed. It was obvious that he still cared about Anna, the mermaid princess.

"Before she died, she used the power of the Neptune to add the blessing of the Neptune to my island. This blessing allows my Hex Island to travel unimpeded in the sea without any Neptune species intruding. .”

After so many years, Hex Island has drifted in countless places in the sea, but it has never been invaded by the Sea King. This is the power of the Sea King's blessing.

And because of Neptune's blessing, the old turtle's will can always remain awake, instead of being confused and controlled by Hex.

In addition, Neptune's power is not only to call Neptunes, she can also give Neptunes unusual special abilities.

The ability given to the old turtle is the tidal vortex, which can control the vortex of ocean currents.

"So that's the case, does that mean that it's impossible for me to take this island away?"

Ace nodded thoughtfully. If Hex hadn't lied to him, then this island really couldn't be taken away. After all, it was a "living" dead turtle.

When it comes to Neptune, even Ace must be careful.

Who knows if Neptune gave the old turtle any more powerful power back then? Maybe someone could inject all Neptune's power into the turtle for the sake of his lover.

In this case, wouldn't touching the turtles be equivalent to touching the Neptune?

"Then, I'll leave first. I wish you a happy time in your palace."

Ace waved his hand. He was sure that Hex was not lying. This meant that the most precious treasure in Hex's treasure was already in his hands. If he didn't leave now, was he going to stay and clean up the moss?

Hex waved his hand and said, "It's impossible to be happy. After you leave, I will die."

"The Soul Bottle is not only the most precious treasure in my hand, but it is also the secret treasure where I keep my soul. As long as the Soul Bottle leaves the island, not only me, but also the soul of the island turtle will be wiped out. "

"But don't worry, 400 years have passed. In fact, Shimao Turtle and I no longer want to live."

Before Ace could say anything, Hex explained casually that he and the Island Turtle were just soul fragments of the original body. To say that they were Hex and the Island Turtle was not as good as the two of them. Just a thought.

400 years have passed, and the mermaid princess who guarded this dark island and believed in the island turtles has also died. In fact, they have no idea of ​​guarding it for a long time.

If it weren't for Hex's inability to let go of the soul bottle that was his life's work, he might have sunk into the sea with Hex Island.

Ace pursed his lips, "I'm not trying to persuade you, I just want to say that if you can't even protect two remnant souls, this soul bottle doesn't seem to be as good as you introduced."

······
······
The whirlpool of passion sent Ace out of the deep sea. Looking back, all Ace saw was a huge island swallowed by darkness.

Faintly, he seemed to be able to see a huge turtle nodding to him.

Perhaps out of embarrassment, or perhaps as punishment for Ace's contempt for his hard work, Hex sent Ace out without even listening to Ace's words, and then he sank into the deep sea with the island turtle without stopping.

Ace, who returned to the surface of the sea, looked at the small bottle in his hand. This was Hex's lifelong effort, but it was also the treasure that Ace said was nothing unusual.
