"Kid, are you tired of living? Stop right now!"

Seeing this, the other thugs roared and quickly pounced, surrounding Ye Jia and beating him from all sides.

They were all quite skilled. Ye Jia was no match for any of them individually, and if not for the sneak attack, how could he have so easily tackled a thug?

Punches landed on Ye Jia's body, causing him unbearable pain.

"Let go!"

"I told you to let go!"

"Did you hear me? If you don't let go, I'll beat you to death!"

The thugs showed no mercy, savagely punching and kicking Ye Jia.

"You want me to let go? No chance!"

Ye Jia gritted his teeth, his eyes fierce, and his punches became even more ruthless.

He was like a beast gone mad, ignoring all the attacks raining down on him from behind, focusing solely on savagely beating one person!

Ye Jia was punching the thug's face. After enduring a barrage of punches while pinned to the ground, the thug's eyes immediately saw stars, and he lost all will to resist, collapsing on the spot.

"Congratulations, you have obtained one Glint-Glint Fruit fragment!"

"Congratulations, you have obtained one Glint-Glint Fruit fragment!"

"Congratulations, you have obtained one Glint-Glint Fruit fragment!"

"..."

Fragment acquisition notifications kept appearing in Ye Jia's mind, one after another.

The sweet, lovely electronic voice acted like a stimulant, making Ye Jia even more savage!

"This brat actually dares not let go! Hit him! Beat him to death!"

The thugs grew even more brutal.

They already had plenty of blood on their hands, and now Ye Jia had provoked them even further. With a ruthless resolve, they didn't hold back their punches at all, savagely striking Ye Jia's back.

Thud!

A dull thud, like a bell being struck, echoed.

"Ugh!"

Ye Jia spat out a mouthful of fresh blood on the spot, feeling as if his bones were about to shatter. "Good thing... good thing I trained with the Hunters for the past three months; my body is strong enough now... Just you wait, all of you!"

"Only three fragments left. Once I gather enough Glint-Glint Fruit fragments, I'll take your lives!"

Ye Jia roared in his heart.

"Stop fighting! All of you, stop fighting!"

Maggie tried to intervene, wanting to stop the thugs from attacking Ye Jia, but as a weak woman, she was willing but powerless, only able to frantically shout in anguish from the side.

The commotion here attracted many people from Windmill Village.

But as soon as they saw it was these thugs beating someone, they all recoiled several steps, terrified that the thugs might get angry and beat them too, in which case they would die for nothing!

Finally—

"Congratulations, you have obtained one Glint-Glint Fruit fragment!"

"Congratulations, you have collected enough Glint-Glint Fruit fragments (10/10). Would you like to synthesize?"

The sweet mechanical electronic female voice was like a warm breeze in winter, moving Ye Jia so much that tears almost welled up in his eyes.

"Synthesize! Synthesize it for me!"

Ye Jia almost roared out the words.

Boom!

In his mind, the giant multicolored cauldron suddenly opened its lid.

Then, ten Glint-Glint Fruit fragments were thrown inside.

"Synthesizing, please wait..."

Below the multicolored cauldron, a multicolored progress bar appeared, rapidly filling up.

Meanwhile, in reality, Ye Jia's body could no longer hold on. He was forcefully kicked away by one of the thugs.

Ye Jia spat out another large mouthful of blood, feeling as though his internal organs were churning. The sensation was extremely agonizing.

"Boom!"

"Congratulations, you have successfully synthesized one Glint-Glint Fruit. Would you like to use it?"

The multicolored progress bar completed, and the giant multicolored cauldron suddenly opened its lid. A golden, strange fruit with swirling patterns appeared in Ye Jia's mind, followed by the sweet mechanical electronic female voice.

"Use it! Use it now!"

Ye Jia shouted.

Instantly, the Glint-Glint Fruit vanished, and Ye Jia only felt a slight abnormality in his body. This sensation appeared and disappeared quickly.

"Brat! You're dead today! How dare you lay a hand on our people? Go to hell!"

The thugs once again swarmed forward, their murderous intent unmistakable.

They were the most ruthless overlords of Windmill Village. If word got out that they couldn't even deal with a mere youngster, what reputation would they have left?

However, just as they swarmed forward, preparing to punch and kick Ye Jia, they found that all their attacks landed in empty air.

"What's going on?!"

"How did my foot pass right through his body?"

"There's light in this guy's body!"

The thugs' fists and feet all seemed to strike air, completely failing to inflict any serious injury on Ye Jia's body.

They couldn't believe what was happening before their eyes. They frantically punched and kicked again, but upon realizing they still couldn't hit Ye Jia, they immediately panicked.

"Hehehehe..."

Ye Jia let out a chilling laugh, his expression even more savage than the thugs'.

"What's wrong? Can't hit me anymore? Your abilities are nothing special!"

He had now eaten the Logia-type Glint-Glint Fruit, and his body had directly turned into light. Unless these guys possessed Haki, they couldn't even dream of harming a single hair on his head!

"You... what happened to you?!"

The thugs were dumbfounded. Trying to hit Ye Jia was like hitting a ghost; it was completely useless.

"I remember now... This is... this is a Devil Fruit ability! We can't hit his body because he's an ability user... He ate a Devil Fruit! Run! We're no match for him, hurry and escape!"

After a thug with a bit more knowledge revealed the truth, his eyes trembled with terror.

They didn't know why the person they had just beaten half to death had suddenly become a Devil Fruit ability user, but they were very clear on how terrifying an ability user could be. Dealing with them would be a piece of cake for such a person!

Immediately, this thug turned around, wanting to flee the bar and escape this place with an ability user.

"You hit me, and you still think you can run? Too late!"

A flash of light—

Ye Jia's body directly appeared in front of the thug.

At the same time, his foot was already raised.

"Bang!"

With incredible speed, to an outsider, it seemed as if Ye Jia had barely moved after appearing in front of the thug before the thug's body was sent flying!

The thug smashed hard into the wall, letting out a painful wail on the spot... three of his ribs were broken.

This was still due to his insufficient strength from just having consumed the Devil Fruit; otherwise, with that one kick, he could have easily killed the thug on the spot!

After dealing with one, Ye Jia's murderous gaze turned to the other thugs.

"Next, it's your turn!"

Ye Jia's voice, like an echo from the netherworld beneath the Nine Springs, sent a shiver down the thugs' spines, making them feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave, and an uncontrollable look of despair welled up in their eyes.
