Chapter 98: Tyrant Kuma Appears! 

[Tl/n: Thank you for th0se who vote. So here an extra chapter.]

...

The Black Pearl, on the cabin aisle.

Ayane rested her chin on one hand and walked forward with her head buried.

'According to the information given by that guy Rifan, my current physical points have reached the critical point of C-level.

As long as I work hard, I should be able to advance to the B-level and catch up with that guy Rifan~.

Thinking of this, Ayano felt faintly excited.

After all, according to Rifan's evaluation, her physique points are close to B-level, her invisibility talent in coordination and her mastery of ninjutsu already have the ability to fight and win the battle with a Colonel from Naval Headquarters.

Assuming, of course, that she doesn't run into someone with the Logia Devil Fruit ability.

Having said that, Ayane couldn't help feeling a little pressure in her heart when she thought that two Devil Fruits were used to upgrade her physique to this level.

'Acting with Rifan, although I'm growing faster. '

'But if it continues like this, I will definitely not be able to pay back all the Devil Fruits I owe him within half a year.'

'If it is not paid off, with the power of copy space, I will definitely become his slave irresistibly…'

Ayane pursed her lips, her mind a little heavy.

It will be a matter of time before she surrenders her intelligence, strength, and even her body.

Even though she thinks Rifan is a good man, Ayane is not ready to become someone else's wife now.

Especially when Rifan still has thoughts about other women.

In addition to being sensitive to the title of slave, Ayane naturally didn't want to be unable to repay the debt owed to Rifan.

'When my physique enters B rank, I should also have the power to go to the Grand Line.'

'At that time, it's time for me to leave Rifan side.'

Ayane thought to herself.

At this moment, a reminder from the copy space made her stop.

[Rifan, achieve the achievement 'The first reincarnation with a physical level of A-level' special reward, intermediate Armament Haki Awakening Scroll'. ]

[Using this scroll, you can further awaken Armament Haki; master the "winding" and "outward release" skills of the armament haki. ]

[Remarks: To use the 'Intermediate Armament Haki Awakening Scroll', you need to awaken the primary Armament Haki first!]

"That man advanced again?!"

"Why so fast?!"

Ayane's beautiful eyes were wide open, and she rushed to the deck quickly, just in time to see Rifan raising his hand and touching Mikita's tattoo.

"Captain Rifan...what, what is this?!"

"Didn't I just awaken my armament haki? Why does it seem to be strengthened again?!"

"And, it seems like there's more that can be done using it…"

Excitedly, Mikita wrapped the armament around her umbrella, then swung it like a baseball bat towards the warship led by Nelson not far away.

Accompanied by a dark crescent, it flew out and passed the mast of the opposite warship.

The pole of the ship was cut off easily like paper, and fell towards the sea.

"What do you think of your new power?"

Rifan looked at the excited Mikita, and raised his hand to pinch her cute face.

In this regard, Mikita not only did not pat Rifan's hand away, but showed an expression of enjoyment.

Rifan chuckled, just now, he had already used the middle-level Armament Haki Awakening Scroll he got from the copy space on Mikita's body at once.

In this way, Mikita's strength has also increased a lot.

'Even compared with Nami, she should already be above her. '

'Although she may not be able to catch Nami.'

'Intermediate Armament Haki, no matter how you put it, can be considered an Emission-level Armament Haki.'

'Even if Mikita's current physique is not high enough, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with a Naval Headquarters Commodore. "

Rifan thought about it, and opened the personal attribute panel of Mikita.

Looking at this excellent attribute panel, Rifan nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at his own attribute panel that was updated after converting the primary Armament Haki scroll and the intermediate Armament Haki awakening scroll.

…

'The intermediate Armament Haki Awakening Scroll actually gives a new karate skill, which is still Ivankov's version. "

'Tsk, isn't this the shemale boxing technique?!'

Rifan reviewed the relevant information in his mind about the new kama karate method obtained this time, and the corners of his mouth twitches involuntarily.

This set of karate methods not only includes Ivankov's karate skills.

It even contains information about his "death wink".

Thinking of the scene where he blinked quickly when he used the "death wink" in the future, Rifan couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

'Forget it, although this new kama karate is somewhat lacking in aesthetics.'

'But it's still useful. '

'It's this death wink... Without the cooperation of the hormonal fruit, I probably wouldn't be able to cast the advanced version of Death Wink, the Hell Wink.'

'Speaking of which, this technique is somewhat similar to Kanpo Kenpo.'

'It even handed over the '99 attack cuisines' to me.'

Rifan is quite satisfied with the '99 attack cuisines'.

Regular consumption of cuisines made with the 99 attack cuisines can help the body build a stronger body.

Of course, Rifan is also curious about the ability of the menu to make women sexier.

He even felt that if this ability in the menu was combined with the characteristics of the growth ointment, the bodies of the female members on the ship would grow faster.

However, before handing over to his partners, Rifan still intends to let Tashigi and Hina try it out.

"You actually gave Mikita the props you just obtained!"

At this time, seeing Mikita playing with armament haki to familiarize herself with it, Ayane walked over to Rifan.

"I think I should have the right to control my props freely, Ms. Ayane."

Rifan turned his head and looked at Ayane who had a look of amazement in front of him with interest.

"I'm just a little surprised that you gave that item to Mikita just after getting it."

"If you gave it to her easily, that means you already have that ability right?"

"I'm quite curious, how many physical points do you need to upgrade your physical level to A-level."

Ayane asked curiously.

"Hehe, this should not be within the scope of our negotiation, Miss Ayane."

"This is suspected of exploring my strength."

Rifan shook his head and said.

"Forget it, since you don't want to say it, I won't force it."

"However, I didn't expect that I just felt that I was getting closer to you."

"But you opened the distance again in an instant."

"Now in the communication interface of our group of reincarnators, there are many people discussing it."

Ayane sighed.

"Really, then I have to take a good look at the faces of these guys."

Rifan chuckled, and opened the communication interface between reincarnators with interest.

—•—|Reincarnated People Chat Room|—•—

['Camel' Nasser: Grade A?! There must be a limit to joking, this bastard just upgraded his physical grade not long ago, right?]

['Eagle' Ethan: How is such a speed possible? This guy still uses points to strengthen his partners. Why does his own physical level upgrade so quickly?]

['Green Pheasant' Rachel: It's a terrible upgrade speed, I really want to know how Rifan did it. ]

['Kangaroo' Helena: If there is a protagonist among the reincarnators, maybe Rifan is the protagonist. ]

['Eagle' Tina: With such a strong physique, if Rifan really wrestled with me, I would definitely lose cleanly~]

['Eagle' Sarah Bryan: Don't doubt it, maybe he stands still and allows you to attack, and you can't do anything to him. ]

['Panda' Leigh: Speaking of which, didn't that guy Jeyu want to deal with Rifan before, now I don't know if he still have such confidence.]

['Camel' Jeyu: Damn it, isn't it just that his upgrade is a little faster, I will definitely catch up with this guy, you all just wait and see! Rifan, don't tell me you have the talent to quickly increase your physical points?!]

At this moment, Jeyu couldn't help but think of his talent similar to 'double the training'.

It stands to reason that as long as he has enough opportunities to come into contact with powerful women, he can forcibly deprive them of their physical strength to strengthen himself.

And thinking of Robin, Mikita, and Nami who were rewarded on the Black Pearl Pirates are all beautiful women.

Jeyu couldn't help but begin to suspect that Rifan had awakened the same talent as himself.

'Talent?'

Ayane glanced at Rifan beside her, thoughtful.

'Indeed, the partners around this man are so powerful.'

'He should have spent most of his points and power-ups on his partners. '

'Could it be that there is really some kind of talent that can allow him to quickly become stronger when he has fewer remaining points?'

At this moment, Ayane couldn't help but recall all of Rifan's performances since joining Rifan's Black Pearl Pirates.

In terms of training, Rifan's training intensity is not that high.

From the perspective of Ayane, who is a ninja, it's just an ordinary exercise intensity.

And in daily life, Rifan did not show his special research on strength.

Thinking about it, Ayane couldn't help but think of the scene where Rifan interacted with the crew of the Black Pearl Pirates many times.

'This man…countless women around him.'

'Even the hostile Marine will not let go.'

'Is it possible that this man can quickly become stronger as long as he interacts intimately with women?!'

Ayane frowned and thought.

Among the ninjutsu she knows, there are also some related Forbidden Techniques that need to be practiced through contact with the opposite sex.

At this moment, Ayane couldn't help thinking of Rifan's talent and the Forbidden Technique she knew.

'If this is the case, it can also explain why this man is so decisive in attacking the male Marine.'

'But for women Marines like Hina and Tashigi, he has always chosen to keep a hand.'

'However, this talent should not need to invade the woman's body to activate it.'

'If this is the case, this man may have already attacked me.'

'Perhaps, it only needs to get close to him to a certain distance, or it can be activated through physical release.'

The more Ayane thought about it, the more she felt that this possibility was very high, and at the same time, the way she looked at Rifan became more and more strange.

Rifan felt Ayane's gaze, and couldn't help but glance at her strangely.

But he didn't care too much.

He didn't respond to Jeyu's inquiry, so he directly closed the reincarnators communication panel.

"Speaking of which, Miss Ayane, are you really not going to use the ointment I researched?"

"The climate on the sea is changeable, and a beautiful girl like you especially needs to take good care of your body."

"If you help me test it now, when you leave, I can give you some medicine powders and ointments for maintenance and even healing."

Rifan turned around and said to Ayane with a smile on his face.

Ayane raised her eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were closely watching Rifan's face.

At this moment, she became more and more sure of what she had thought before, that Rifan could gain strength through being with women!

So she shook her head and solemnly said to Rifan:

"Rifan, speaking of leaving, there is one thing I want to tell you."

"My current strength has reached a critical point."

"After breaking through this critical point, I plan to leave..."

Before Ayane could finish her sentence, she found that Rifan in front of her reached out to wrap her waist and led her back quickly.

Just when she was feeling puzzled, a loud rumbling sound suddenly came from the Black Pearl.

Then came a violent tremor.

Ayane, whose waist was stopped by Rifan, looked back and found that the deck she was standing on had sunk.

And the sunken deck is like a huge Bear Paw.

In that sunken bear paw, there is another man who is over 6 meters tall, strong and sturdy.

"Who?!" The sudden shock caused Mikita to quickly turn around and point the umbrella in her hand at the man who suddenly appeared on the Black Pearl.

But after seeing the man's appearance, her eyes widened immediately.

"S-Shichibukai—Tyrant Kuma?!"

"Why are you here?!"

Kuma glanced at Mikita, then fixed his gaze on Rifan.

"If you want to travel, where do you want to go?"
