Arceus in One Piece - Chapter 71
Queen had gotten a microphone from somewhere, and although he had set the mood quite well, Arceus always had the strange feeling that he was at a roadside raffle.
Because on top of the makeshift table, there was a real raffle wheel.
This award is the beginning but not the end. There will be more and more of this kind of thing in the future, and naturally, I don’t need to talk about the rewards for the big achievements, but there are still many small-scale battles like this one.
The one who gets the reward may be an unknown pirate under his banner. There is always a difference between the strong and the weak, and it is normal that they are not as good as the cadres and the ability they get is not as good as the cadres.
People won’t be jealous of someone with a big gap, but they will be jealous of someone who is almost as good as they are, and there are always some people who feel bad when they see someone else making more money than they are losing.
Not to worry about scarcity, but uneven, in order to deal with this potential contradiction, simply make a lottery roulette wheel, get what kind of ability all depends on luck, so that no one has anything to say.
BabaNuki, the quarry caretaker of the Pirates, is still a young man.
“Come on, what you get is up to you.” Queen handed him a small dart, and the huge wheel was divided into sections. Though he recognised the words, he didn’t know what each one stood for.
“What are these, Queen?”
“They’re all very useful abilities. If you’re lucky enough, you can get the same ability as the cadre.
The ability of the cadre has a special meaning in the Hundred Beasts Group nowadays because the cadres here are all “phantom beast species”.
The word “Phantasmal Beasts” is also very clear on the wheel, but the percentage is quite small.
As for the problem of missing the target, they are pirates, and if they can’t throw a dart without missing the target, then it’s not a good idea for them to quit.
The diameter of this wheel is about the same as Asuka’s height nowadays, so even a child wouldn’t be able to miss it.
In another world, Queen would have made a good host, well, a funny variety show, but after all, hosts need faces.
Now that he’s got the pirates in the audience in full swing, Babanouki throws a dart in the face of a spinning roulette wheel, and when he’s sure he’s hit it, Queen stops the roulette wheel.
But as fate would have it, the dart he threw landed right on the line of demarcation, where the words “cohabitation” and “weirdness” were two sides of the same coin.
“Pick one, Babanouki. You don’t get a second chance.”
“Weird force.” He wasn’t much of a swordsman, and the Juhe gave the impression of a Juhe chop, which he didn’t think was very useful, so he chose something literally simpler.
“Speaking of which, you’re full, right?”
“I’m full. I ate a lot at the banquet earlier.”
BabaNuki didn’t understand why Queen suddenly asked him if he was full, but in the next moment, Al Zeus had already walked in front of him, a strange power surged into his body, and BabaNuki was similarly pulled into the learning space.
This so-called reward was a thunderstorm for the time being, and these ordinary pirates didn’t know why Babanoukhi had suddenly fallen asleep.
“Don’t worry, little ones; when Babanouki wakes up, you’ll know what’s going on, and then there’s something even more important.”
Queen had a slab pushed up. It was a replica of the Arceus Slab, unactivated by Arceus. This is what it looked like to outsiders. They couldn’t find any features other than indestructibility.
“Remember this size and shape, if you can find it, even if it is only a message, you may make a reasonable offer once it is confirmed to be true.
But remember, the news can be wrong, but it can never be false, and if you guys dare to deliver false news intentionally, the consequences will also be very serious.
On top of that, all of these above materials can be exchanged for rewards!”
Queen re-enumerated the extinct materials, mixed in with some irrelevant stuff that no one but Asier could figure out what they were for.
A long wait ensued, and even though the celebration was over, it was no big deal for the pirates to have another party.
Before Babanouki woke up, the members of the Beast were temporarily stationed there, and the Queen took the opportunity to give a solo concert.
The Beast members down below seemed to enjoy it.
Arceus also continued to talk to Kaido about business.
“That thing has been made, but unfortunately, the effect is not as good as expected; this is yours. Remember to observe its reaction when you go out and wander around in the future, there is a positioning on it, a foolproof operation.”
said and threw the Slate Radar to Kaido with his elemental hand.
“Don’t lose the thing. You won’t be able to build a second one for a while.”
A leather wristband with a tiny meter on it, it was from the skin of a special kind of sea beast that was so resistant and malleable that even an animal-based shapeshifter wouldn’t be able to break it.
The customised structure kept the pure gold inside from affecting the carrier and preventing it from growing out of shape.
“Got it, but how long is this Babanouki kid going to be?”
“I don’t know; it’s a matter of personal talent.”
Arceus then handed Shaina the other radar.
“Shaina, this is yours. It’s a bit smaller than Kaido’s, but it doesn’t matter. You’re not as strong as him, so when you find something, your first goal is to inform me. Don’t act rashly.”
“Yes, Lord Sacred Beast.”
Two days passed and Babanouki had not woken up, but someone came looking for Queen.
After a battle, there are casualties as well as the dead, and while Queen is not always serious, he really is the team’s ship’s doctor, and he can basically fix anything from surgery to viruses and the like.
The battle with the Wald Pirates resulted in a number of casualties, one of which was unusual in that both he and Babanoukhi were the first to go, but Babanoukhi was lucky enough to be spared any fatal injuries, while he was not.
His right arm was cut off, and his face was extensively burned. Although his life was saved, he was basically a wreck.
He was originally assigned to be a member of the backroom staff, but he put forward a request, hoping to receive Queen’s human body modification.
In the world of pirates, being disabled and in charge of the back office basically means living in poverty, which is unacceptable to them.
However, he is also a man of “war”, so he offers to exchange his contribution in the battle for a chance to be reformed.
Of course, Queen agreed to this kind of thing. He was worried that his transformation technology had no use.
A lot of people are resistant to body modification.
