2 Black Winged Demon

The initial point is quite potent - the Mythical Zoan fruits boast incredible strength and wield unique abilities. However, their rarity is their sole drawback.

Additionally, Paramecia and Zoan ability users transforming into phantom beasts are a scarce sight. Should Sebastian assemble an army of these formidable creatures, it would be a force to reckon with. At that point, neither the Whitebeard pirate group, the Marines, nor the World Government would stand a chance against his ambitions!

Curious, Sebastian inquired, "System, how many reputation and modification points do I currently possess?"

His reputation value stood at 10, and he had two modification points. A reward of one modification point was promised upon surpassing a reputation of 100. Similarly, breaking through to a three-digit reputation and even advancing into four-digit territory would yield additional modification points.

[Once reputation reached a specific threshold, he could access a lottery draw function that offered modification points and other rewards.]

The 10 reputation points he currently possessed were earned during his time with the Hundred Beasts. He recognized the pattern; progressing from 0 to a single digit rewarded a minor modification point, and the transition from single digits to double digits also granted a modification point.

"System! Change my fruit ability!" Sebastian silently willed.

[Ding~ The Host possesses a minor modification value, and the fruit ability is set to be modified!]

A cacophony of heartbeats thundered within Sebastian, coursing through his veins as his strength surged. His muscles swelled, bones hardened, and his skin became more resilient, surpassing cowhide in durability. A fleeting notion led him to believe he could take down Kaido with a single punch, though he was well aware that this was a mere illusion, and Kaido was a formidable adversary in his own right.

Kaido's strength might not be the greatest, but his endurance and vitality were unparalleled in the world of sailing. Whitebeard had been unable to defeat him, underscoring Kaido's incredible resilience.

"This power! It's incredible!" Sebastian couldn't help but marvel silently.

[Ding~ Congratulations to the Host for successfully modifying the fruit ability!]

[Acquire Zoan Bat Fruit - Black Wing Demon Form!]

The system's voice resonated in Sebastian's mind, leaving him stunned. It turned out he had acquired the power of Ulquiorra, the fourth Espada in Shinigami with immense charisma and strength. Ulquiorra was the sole Espada capable of unleashing the second-stage Resurrección.

Sebastian clenched his fist, realizing that the newfound hardness of his skin was due to this newfound power.

Ulquiorra's Steelskin ability is like an impenetrable fortress, rendering his skin as tough as steel. It's as if he's encased in an impenetrable armor that scoffs at the feeble attempts of his adversaries. Ulquiorra's steely hide effortlessly thwarts the Shikai strikes of Urahara Kisuke and even brushes aside Kurosaki Ichigo Hollow's getsuga ten'sho with casual indifference.

Now, as for Sebastian, his steelskin might not quite measure up to Ulquiorra's right now, but there's a promising twist in the tale. Thanks to his development with the Blackwing Demon Fruit, it's only a matter of time before his own steel skin rivals Ulquiorra's in resilience and toughness.

"Hey, System," Sebastian inquired with a hopeful glint in his eye, "Is it possible for me to achieve Ulquiorra's full abilities in two stages?"

[Absolutely! You're on the path to unlocking all of Ulquiorra's powers. And once you've reached that milestone, a treasure trove of new abilities will be at your disposal. You can even harness the might of other Zoan fruit users who become your subordinate s!]

Sebastian's face practically lit up with joy. The System was indeed a game-changer, and with its support, he felt confident about staking his claim as a dominant force in this tumultuous realm.

As for the Hundred Beasts, well, they were merely a stepping stone in Sebastian's grand scheme of things. With the System's aid, he had his sights set on even loftier goals – toppling Kaido and becoming the undisputed master of the Hundred Beasts.

Having ventured into this chaotic world, Sebastian was ready to ride the storm, embracing the era of rampant opportunity with open arms.

And then, there was that amusing thought that crossed his mind. "I wonder, is my steelskin tougher than Big Mom's?"

Laughter erupted, not too far away, as if the sea itself had joined in on the mirth. A pirate with a conspicuous scar across his face couldn't contain his amusement.

Having learned the art of lip-reading, he deciphered Sebastian's musings and gleefully shared them with his fellow pirates. "He's comparing his skin to Big Mom's!"

Curiosity piqued, one of the nearby pirates inquired, "What's he saying?"

The Scar Pirate grinned as he enlightened them. "He's actually daring to compare the toughness of his skin to Big Mom's!"

The ensuing laughter echoed across the deck. Big Mom, a name that resonated with everyone present. One of the Sea Emperors, captain of the BIGMOM pirates, and a formidable force to be reckoned with. She was hailed as the queen of all nations, a true monster with a bounty that soared to a staggering 4.388 billion Berry.

Big Mom was renowned as the "steel balloon" for good reason. Her skin was nigh impervious, capable of fending off knives and bullets without breaking a sweat. The rumors even claimed that since childhood, she hadn't acquired a single scar. No attack, no matter how fierce or imbued with Armament Haki, could leave a mark on her.

A long-legged pirate, with a haughty demeanor, couldn't help but scoff, "A rookie like him, comparing his skin to Big Mom's? I'll eat Ghost Island if that's true!"

Another pirate chimed in, "Matching her skin? That's pure fantasy. Only a true monster like Big Mom can boast such a reputation. He's clearly just bragging."

The Scar Pirate approached Sebastian, bearing two bowls of Anko soup, the beloved delicacy of Queen, one of the prominent figures in the Beasts Pirates known as "Plague." Queen's attachment to Anko soup was a well-known quirk, and even Auntie, who was not one to be trifled with, dared not cross him when it came to his favorite dish.

While Queen wasn't as unpredictable as the ship king Jack, he certainly shared a penchant for indulging in his cravings.
