Chapter 23: KONO DOFLAMINGO DA!!

The control over blood is naturally not limited to oneself.

Just as Doflamingo's instinctively perceived before, as long as there is a little wound on Vergo's body and a little blood flows out, Doflamingo can directly drain Vergo's blood!

Although this ability has not been verified in actual combat, Doflamingo can already feel its threat.

High, very high!

Even if an enemy, who doesn't know his ability, is much stronger than him, as long as he is accidentally hit with a bleeding wound, Doflamingo is likely to catch him off guard and drain the opponent's blood dry!

This is a game changer that can turn the outcome of the battle!

Of course, this is just a guess of Doflamingo's at the moment. Whether it has such a high actual combat effect, he really needs to find an opponent to try it out.

The blood flowed in Doflamingo's hands like a little stream for a moment, then turned into a dagger and fell into Doflamingo's palm.

"You can make the blood mimic different shapes?" Vergo raised his brows.

"That's right." Doflamingo nodded, and then Haki shook in his hand, and the dagger imitated by blood was instantly wrapped by Armament Haki, turning into a dark Haki hardened dagger.

Then, Doflamingo made a backhand and stuck the blood on the table. The cut was very smooth, as if he was using a real dagger.

Then, Doflamingo released his Haki hardening, and at the same time dispersed his ability. The blood dagger pierced into the table collapsed instantly, turning into a pool of blood, which flowed down along the crack in the table.

And before the pool of blood fell on the ground, it seemed to be controlled by something, and it quickly flew back to Doflamingo's palm, kneading into a ball of blood.

Doflamingo gently squeezed his palms together, and when he opened them again, the original blood cells had already disappeared.

At the same time, Doflamingo is also feeling the changes in his body.

When the blood cells were 'integrated' into the body just now, Doflamingo could feel that the blood in his body didn't change in quantity, it was still the same amount.

But there is a subtle vitality, as if gathered for later use, stored in the heart.

It was all instinctive, as if he knew it from birth, and Doflamingo had already known the answer in his mind.

His heart is his 'blood pool'. Once all the blood he sucks enters his body, it will be transformed into vitality according to its quality and stored in his heart.

And he will therefore have one of the basic abilities of vampires, that is High-Speed ​​Regeneration!

When the body is brutalized, the heart will quickly release the stored vitality to restore itself from the injury.

At the same time, the stored vitality will also constantly repair the changes caused by its own metabolism.

In other words, as long as Doflamingo sucks blood frequently, he may be able to live for hundreds of years.

In the original story, the reason why the Red Earl Patrick Redfield insisted on getting this Devil Fruit was because the ability of this mythical zoan was indeed very powerful, and on the other hand, it was because of this ability that could make it so that by taking the life force of others, he restores his youth and returns to his peak form!

After feeling the power of the fruit, Doflamingo was in a good mood.

Because with this kind of power, Doflamingo can almost avoid worries. When fighting, he can adopt very aggressive tactics, such as exchanging injuries for injuries, and exchanging lives for lives.

As long as his heart and head are not destroyed, other injuries will no longer be a problem under the premise of having a strong vitality reserve.

At the same time, the negative effect of the wound was completely erased.

As we all know, there is a very big difference between Marines and pirates, that is, elderly pirates rarely maintain their physical fitness at their peak.

Take Whitebeard as an example. When he was young, he was known as the strongest man, and he was almost invincible in the world!

It is indeed the man who suppressed the entire era for nearly two decades after Roger.

But even a pirate as strong as Whitebeard, when he gets older, is still full of injuries, always wearing medicine bottles all over his body, and when fighting against others, it is still difficult to display his peak combat effectiveness.

In contrast, the Marine bosses are different. They enjoy complete logistics and medical resources. After the battle, the Marine bosses don't have to run around like pirates, and can enjoy the most high-end recuperation treatment.

Therefore, Marine's bosses, even after getting old, can still maintain a strong combat effectiveness. Among them, Garp is the representative.

He usually eats and drinks nonsense, and is still extremely healthy. He is obviously a few years older than Whitebeard, but he doesn't look that old at all.

In the final analysis, except for their extraordinary talent, they are also well-maintained.

Now Doflamingo has also stepped into this rank, and it can be said that from now on, his strength will not decline due to age, hidden injuries and other issues. As long as he wants, he can always remain at the peak!

After feeling it carefully again, Doflamingo confirmed that the basic abilities brought by this vampire Devil Fruit are just these.

If he wants to create new and innovative uses of it in the future, he has to calm down and develop bit by bit.

Speaking of the development of fruit power, it is actually a very relatve thing.

Perhaps, as Dr. Vegapunk said, the manifestation of these abilities is more like or wish, or desire.

As long as it is a little bit related to the basics of your ability, it seems that it can be developed if you have enough ingenuity and will.

Doflamingo had already planned to eat this Devil Fruit earlier, so he is not a headless fly. He has a set of mature ideas about the development and direction of his own abilities.

Now that the fruit has been eaten, these original ideas can also be carried out.

"Thinking about what to so next, there is really a lot. I have to maintain my practice of Haki. After I go back, I plan to ask Diamante to enlighten me about the way of swordsmanship. And now, I have to also develop my fruit." Doflamingo said with a helpless smile.

Vergo also laughed when he heard the words, and said: "Not only that, there will be some things that must be handled and decided by you in the family from time to time..."

"Fufufu, fufufu, I am really busy." Doflamingo said with a curled up corner of his mouth.

But he knew very well in his heart that when someone is busy and can actively get feedback that they are improving, it proves that they are effectively busy and are on the way up.

If he sticks to that routine, he can gain a lot of results.

Having said this, Doflamingo stood up, intending to get the champagne in the wine cabinet and open a bottle for himself, as a celebration of becoming a devil fruit user today.

But when he passed by the window of the cabin, the outside sun shone on him, which made him feel a little uncomfortable instinctively.

This shocked Doflamingo's heart!

Any Devil Fruit has some side effects more or less. After Doflamingo felt some discomfort from sunlight exposure, he wondered if this was a side effect of his own fruit ability?

There's no way he can't bask in the sun anymore, right? Then this fruit ability is too much of a scam!

In order to see how strong the discomfort would be, Doflamingo resisted the uncomfortable feeling and stood in front of the window, facing the sun.

At the same time, Doflamingo is also carefully feeling the changes in himself.

The sun does bring some discomfort, but this kind of discomfort is far from what he imagined, where he will turn into ashes after exposure to the sun. He isn't even on fire.

This discomfort seems to come more from physical instinct and psychology.

It's as if some creatures are naturally light-loving, while others are naturally dark-loving.

The original Doflamingo didn't have these similarities, but now, he prefers the dark, and he instinctively rejects the sun, that's all.

However, after being exposed to the sun for a period of time, Doflamingo could also feel that his physical functions seemed to have 'declined'.

He's not really affected that much, but in the sun, because of instinct and psychological factors, Doflamingo looks....a bit unmotivated.

It's easy to get sleepy in the sun!

But in the next second, when a thick cloud drifted past, it blocked the sunlight that was originally shining directly on Doflamingo's body.

Doflamingo's drowsy feeling disappeared in an instant, and he became energetic again.
