Chapter 53: Giant Poison
……
Ace frowned at the side quest that suddenly appeared, his eyes slightly puzzled.
Because,This time,The task panel weirdly shows the remaining selection time,The countdown is 0:09:41,The meaning is very clear,That is, if you don't make a choice within ten minutes,It will automatically disappear after the time is up。
But he clearly remembers that the first time the side quest appeared, there was no time mark next to it, and there was no hint.
And this time, the countdown appeared so obviously, and the 'click' beat. Does this tense moment also mean that something else will happen ten minutes later?
Or is the time for other forces to intervene is about to arrive, which is suggestive, and there is only so little time left for oneself to prepare?
These doubts flashed in his heart, and Ace didn't have much contact with this aspect, but he couldn't guess it.
But he didn't believe that the reincarnation space would make such an arrangement for no reason, there must be a reason for it, and there must be something in it here.
For a while, out of prudence, Ace couldn't make a choice at the first time, and with worry in his heart, he could only let the countdown pass slowly.
However, the appearance of the mission did not stop Ace, and the thought only flashed through his mind for a moment, almost without interruption, and his mind was pulled back to his immediate gaze.
Because of the huge fireball that had just been thrown out of his hand, it was violently rubbing the air, powerful and domineering, and the heat wave was scorching, and in the blink of an eye, it had already collided with the poisonous skeleton that was soaring with murderous intent.
There was a "click" sound, like a landslide and the ground cracked.
With a slight stroke, the poisonous skull's sharp fork destroyed everything like a raging whirlpool, drawing an arc in the air, splitting Huashan with force, slashing from the side towards the blazing fireball.
In an instant, a huge shock wave was generated, the sparks of the explosion flew everywhere, the venom sneezed, and a tiny ripple in the air like a stone falling into the water splashed in all directions.
Ace, who was in the distance, did not expect this kind of change, his body was affected in an instant, the wind was reversed, the poisonous gas blew his face, and his eyes, ears, mouth, nose and five senses had to be closed to prevent erosion.
At the same time, his body was swept backwards by the qi waves, his feet stepped on the ground alternately, and he stepped backwards seven or eight steps before he barely stopped the retreat and stood firm.
What made him even more suspicious was that the violently burning fireball was actually violently rushed, and the flame ball layer on it seemed to be unable to withstand the chopping, resulting in a series of subtle cracks.
To be exact, it was violently eroded by the venom of fission, and it just shattered.
"The ability possessed by the A+ rank is actually terrifying!" Ace was deeply shocked, and in just half a move, his invincible extreme move was almost broken, leaving only the flower frame that rushed forward, and there was no power at all.
Ace swallowed his saliva with difficulty, looking at the poisonous skeleton that continued to rush unscrupulously after destroying the fireball, the arrogant figure was like a deep mountain and river, and there was an insurmountable illusion.
"Boom! Fire Fist Ace, after this battle, finally understand where the gap between the two of us is? Although you and I are the same owners of Rare Fruits of the Natural Nature, and the same ability is ranked in the top ten of the Devil Fruit List, why can you only stop at a-stop, how hard you can work and no longer advance-"
The sound of Yin Measurement came out of nowhere, and Magellan followed closely behind the poisonous skeleton, slowly crossing unhurriedly.
"You must also see that it is also the ultimate move that you have comprehended, but your power is so single, only the basic flame heat, but you do not have any qualitative transformation ability.
Therefore, this is no longer just a gap in strength and understanding. Magellan looked at Ace, who was silent, and suddenly pointed to his head mockingly, and said contemptuously:
"More importantly, it is the transformation of the development of the 'source sea', the source of personal strength, which is the gap between comprehension and cohesion. Therefore, it is impossible for you to cross this chasm with your rotten wood.
It is even more impossible to defeat me who has already touched the 'Gate of Heaven', this is the transformation of the original force, this is the qualitative transformation! ”
"Therefore, those who have been able to come this far, even if you were once called the 'son of Tianjiao', have not yet known how to develop the origin and knock on the 'gate of heaven', you can only stagnate forever.
Wandering outside the gate of the source force for such a long time, the S rank is already out of reach for you, even if you only understand it now, but it is too late, and you will miss it forever, haha-"
Magellan looked up to the sky and laughed triumphantly, as if he had forgotten the unpleasantness of the rats.
This junior, who once amazed him for a while, broke through the A major level with his talent before the age of 19, and broke through the desperate barrier known as '10,000 people (B+ rank) race walking on the single-plank bridge', which caused a sensation in the world for a while, and really made him feel jealous.
But at this moment, seeing this person go farther and farther away from the S Rank Origin, he felt a burst of joy in his heart for no reason, and even directly pierced that barrier and said it by name.
"This is what you call the power gap? Is this what you call superiority? Ace shook his head blankly and sneered at him:
"Originally, in my eyes, you were the kind of popular person with absolute qualifications to hit the S rank, and you were an existence that everyone in the world looked up to. But now it seems that you Magellan are not only not good at breath, but also narrow-minded. Wow, it seems that it is destined to be nothing more than that! ”
Ace sneered indifferently, his eyes burning menacingly, ignoring the looming giant poison on the side.
But in fact, after such a series of battles, Ace has faintly guessed the subtle flaws in his own ability, and he also agrees with Magellan's words in his heart, but he is not happy with this person's lofty behavior at the moment, and his intention to kill him is not diminished in the slightest.
On the other hand, with his strength at this moment, there is not much chance to make a change.
And now, after Magellan's mocking fecal spraying, drawing inferences from one case and touching the other, Ace finally clearly understands the essential gap in the body, or the ability defect.
One of them, the path of evolution in his own flame ability seems to be somewhat restricted, and he does not have the devouring ability and traction ability derived from the origin in Blackbeard's dark fruit, nor the cannibalization ability and tearing ability derived from the origin venom of the person in front of him.
Its own ability is ordinary, and it only has a real single ability, which is scorching.
The second of them is that there are some problems with the development of its own flame ability, that is, there is no endurance, the background is insufficient, and it is easy for people to seize the opportunity as soon as they make a move.
All of the above may have been deliberately ignored by the predecessor who was obsessed with gaining great strength. Or maybe there has been no one to guide you since you were a child, and you can't understand it thoroughly.
But these, with Ace's current situation, it is difficult to make changes in this plot world. In other words, I don't have the ability to deal with it for the time being, so I can only wait to return to the space and see if I can correct it with the help of the legendary 'omnipotent' reincarnation hall...
This is also what he has been planning all along, and it can be regarded as one of the purposes.
Therefore, even if Magellan's poisonous tongue is pertinent at this moment, it will definitely not change Ace's hatred and killing intent towards him.
