Chapter 2: I am the Many, I am the One!
After consuming the Devil Fruit, Huang Ke Yin's eyes lit up. She had gambled right!
With the power of this Devil Fruit, she would become the strongest in this world!
With the power of the fruit, even the sea, which could restrain Devil Fruit users, would be unable to harm her!
Because, the name of this Devil Fruit is, the Gene Gene Fruit!
As the name suggests, the power of this Devil Fruit is related to genes!
The Gene Gene Fruit currently has three main abilities.
First, Analyze Genes!
As the name suggests, as long as Huang Ke Yin obtains a target's blood or flesh, she can analyze various genes within them.
Second, Optimize Genes!
Each person's genes are different, so this ability is born for the third ability, to optimize genes and make them usable by oneself!
Third, Embed, or you could say copy and paste, fuse genes!
This ability is the strongest, and also the final ability.
With this ability, Huang Ke Yin can continuously absorb the genes of powerful individuals, absorb animal genes, and transform herself into a complete monster aggregate!
For example, right now Huang Ke Yin is just a normal human.
She can absorb animal genes.
The power of a bear, the speed of a leopard, the flight of a bird, the scent of a dog, the agility of a cat, the eyesight of an eagle, the longevity of a turtle, the night vision ability of animals, and so on.
Besides these, she can also use the special races of this world, such as fishmen's flesh and blood. Huang Ke Yin can analyze and optimize fishman genes using her fruit's power, allowing herself to breathe underwater, summon small fish or small sea kings like a fishman!
If she obtains Charlotte Linlin's flesh and blood, then Huang Ke Yin may be able to analyze the genes of her so-called Steel Balloon Body, and then replicate them onto herself.
Aside from these, she can also replicate the genes of those powerful individuals, pushing her own potential even further.
And, if she finds the tardigrade from her previous life, after replicating its genes, she will be able to survive in extreme environments such as ultra-low temperatures, ultra-high temperatures, high pressure, radiation, hypoxia, and so on!
If she finds the Turritopsis dohrnii from her previous life, then she will also be able to glimpse into the realm of immortality!
Therefore, this fruit did not disappoint Huang Ke Yin, nor did it become her weakness.
After all, as long as she acquires fishman genes, then the sea will not be her biggest weakness.
Moreover, ability users can also contact Seastone to train their resistance to it, so as long as they train enough, with fishman genes, the sea's weakness can also be eliminated.
Besides this, the most difficult aspect is obtaining fishman flesh and blood.
But with Xia Qi, the intelligence dealer, as her mother, and Rayleigh, the former Pirate King's First Mate nicknamed "Dark King," as her father, obtaining some fishman flesh and blood would be a simple matter!
Thus, Huang Ke Yin happily returned home after exchanging a bunch of pirate heads at the Marine base for bounties.
On the way, Huang Ke Yin was walking along, when she suddenly found herself entering a strange space.
Within this space, there was a round table, and a chair beside the round table.
After observing for a while, Huang Ke Yin suddenly realized that a stream of information appeared in her mind.
After absorbing the information, Huang Ke Yin looked around with a sudden realization.
This is a dimensional space unique to Huang Ke Yin, where worlds can be traversed, countless possibilities, and countless Huang Ke Yins will gather.
Here, their abilities will be shared with each other.
The Huang Ke Yins here, are the ten thousand, the multitude, and also the one!
Currently, Pirate Huang Ke Yin became the first to arrive here!
Sitting on the chair, looking at the empty seats around, Pirate Huang Ke Yin was somewhat surprised.
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect I'd be the first, that's really amazing!"
After waiting for a while, realizing that no second Huang Ke Yin arrived, Pirate Huang Ke Yin simply left the space.
In this space, besides sharing each other's abilities through physical contact, they can also sit on the chairs that appear around the round table.
The chairs, or the table, are ability storage devices.
Once someone sits down, they can share the abilities that have already appeared.
This also caused some newcomers, after finding no one in the space, to not share any abilities after leaving.
Just like now.
After Pirate Huang Ke Yin left for some time, a chair gradually appeared beside the round table.
At the same time, another Huang Ke Yin arrived in the shared space.
Exiting the shared space, Huang Ke Yin discovered that nothing seemed to have changed outside, time seemed to have not flowed.
This way, in the future if she encounters a powerful enemy, Huang Ke Yin can travel to the shared space and wait there until a powerful figure who can solve the problem arrives!
With light steps, Huang Ke Yin returned to her "Blackmail" Bar.
"Mom! I'm back!"
"Welcome home!"
At the counter, just like in the original story, except younger, Xia Qi held a cigarette in one hand, while her other hand grabbed a pirate who refused to pay for his drinks and was beaten unconscious. She greeted Huang Ke Yin.
"My dear Elly, what happened to make you so happy today?"
Originally, Huang Ke Yin's name should be Silbaz Elly, but when she was young, Huang Ke Yin insisted on being called Huang Ke Yin. Both parents eventually couldn't resist and allowed her to use Huang Ke Yin as her name.
As for Elly, it became the special name that Xia Qi and Rayleigh, this pair of parents, used for her.
"Hehe, today was a big haul!"
She casually threw the bag of Beli behind the counter, and Huang Ke Yin sat at the bar, waiting for Xia Qi to finish her work.
When Xia Qi returned, she curiously asked.
"What big haul? What's so happy about it?"
"Hehe, I got a super strong Devil Fruit, oh!"
"Oh! What kind of fruit?"
It's true that as a powerful intelligence dealer, Xia Qi possesses the most complete Devil Fruit compendium that can be obtained. Huang Ke Yin has also seen many Devil Fruits that never appeared in the original story since she was a child.
"It's a Devil Fruit that's not in the compendium, and I've already eaten it!"
"Crack!"
At this moment, Xia Qi leaned on the bar, her forehead had black lines, and her left hand holding the bar crushed a piece of it.
"Little Elly, you said you ate an unknown Devil Fruit, it might even be the first time it appeared in this world!"
"That's right! This ability is super strong!"
Huang Ke Yin, who didn't notice that her mom was already emitting black aura, continued proudly.
"My fruit is called the Gene Gene Fruit, its ability is to analyze, optimize, and replicate genes!..."
Xia Qi, suppressing the urge to beat her daughter up, silently listened to Huang Ke Yin's introduction of her fruit's ability, and her future plans.
Originally, Xia Qi wanted to properly discipline this completely disobedient daughter.
