Butterfly Shinobu did not refuse.
Following the Old Gentleman, she briefly recounted the appearance of Muzan Kibutsuji and the formation of the Demon Slayer Corps.
"It's quite unfortunate, isn't it? A world like this…"
Butterfly Shinobu maintained a smile on her face, but her eyes were filled with sorrow and grief.
Countless people had witnessed their closest loved ones try to devour them, degenerating into demons that gnawed on internal organs.
Even her kind and gentle elder sister, who was willing to attempt peaceful coexistence with demons, died at the hands of demons.
This was a world of despair.
Abandoned by the gods…
A large hand suddenly landed on Butterfly Shinobu's head.
Garp keenly sensed Butterfly Shinobu's low spirits and did not comment on this world.
He simply laughed loudly, "So, you are still fighting, aren't you?"
Butterfly Shinobu looked up, feeling the warm palm like a hat covering her head, almost completely enveloping it.
The physical prowess of people from other worlds truly made one envious.
This was Butterfly Shinobu's first thought.
Even if he wasn't a player, with such a robust and massive body alone, he could probably rival Gyomei Himejima, the Stone Pillar, couldn't he?
"Even with weak bodies, you still found weapons like the Nichirin Blade to fight against powerful demons!"
"Even without gods, you still fight for humanity!"
"Mr. Fang Yi once said that some worlds do have gods, but most gods are nasty and terrible guys."
"They don't care about the lives and deaths of humans."
"The Reincarnation Game is not an agent of the gods, so it will not save humanity either, but it is willing to give those who fight to fulfill their wishes a chance to change their fate."
"Perhaps, this is why the Reincarnation Game appeared in the Ninja World, the Pirate World, and the Demon Slayer Continent?"
Garp, who was usually thick-skinned,
would throw his grandson into deep mountains and ancient forests and bottomless abysses, and tie him to a hot air balloon to fly into the sky, but he was exceptionally gentle with Butterfly Shinobu.
"Thank you, Old Gentleman…"
Butterfly Shinobu's eyes were slightly red; she understood that the Navy Old Gentleman was trying to comfort her.
She realized in her heart,
that although she had been diligently training and hunting demons, her heart had been in a state of confusion.
Because of her elder sister's death, she felt the despair of this world; such gentle and kind people died on the path of their ideals, and she subconsciously pessimistically believed that the Demon Slayer Corps, which symbolized ideals, was destined to have difficulty eradicating demons.
"A will longing to fulfill a wish?"
Butterfly Shinobu murmured softly, "I want to become stronger, I want to kill all the man-eating evil demons!"
"My elder sister's wish for humans and demons to coexist peacefully is not my wish; that gentle smile doesn't suit me!"
The gentle smile that had been on Butterfly Shinobu's face ever since her elder sister's death,
disappeared at this moment.
Although still exquisite and beautiful, it no longer deliberately mimicked Kanae's gentleness,
and instead looked a bit more valiant and natural.
"I will resurrect my elder sister; her wish is for her to fulfill herself!"
Buzz.
As if in witness to her no longer pretending,
an exquisite black invitation slowly floated down, landing directly in Butterfly Shinobu's palm.
On the other side,
Whitebeard laughed heartily,
waving Cong Yun Cut, continuously harvesting the Red Spectres.
Under the shocked gazes of the Flame Pillar and Wind Pillar, he single-handedly cut off the tide-like army of Red Spectres.
"So strong, is this really power that humans can possess?"
Looking at Whitebeard, who was enveloped in scarlet mist,
Kyojuro Rengoku was filled with envy, as it took him several slashes to cut off the Red Spectre's neck and clear its health bar.
Just then,
an invisible Crazy Baby suddenly appeared, leaping high, its long, narrow claws striking towards the back of Whitebeard's head.
"Watch out!"
Kyojuro Rengoku quickly rushed forward,
his blade wreathed in flames, striking the Crazy Baby's back, but failing to kill it.
Crack.
The sound of space tearing,
Whitebeard didn't even turn his head, merely activating the power of the Quake-Quake Fruit, and the vibrating cracks tore the Crazy Baby's body apart.
"A warm-hearted fellow like you will delay the hunting of Pollution Monsters."
Whitebeard turned his head, looking down at Kyojuro Rengoku with his striking hair color.
"Although you are not yet a player, the reward points and experience from hunting Pollution Monsters will still accumulate, and you'll be able to use them once you become a player!"
"You can become even stronger!"
He was somewhat like an owl, looking a bit dull.
Despite having strength superior to those ordinary swordsmen, he was timidly hiding in the center of the crowd.
Whitebeard's Observation Haki was enough for him to passively take in the battlefield situation nearby.
He felt that the other party had some potential, which was why he couldn't help but say a few words.
"If great strength is seen as a gift from the heavens, then protecting the weak is the inherent responsibility of the strong!"
Kyojuro Rengoku's voice was loud,
like a good student answering a teacher's question.
Whitebeard paused slightly, then laughed loudly, "Without great strength, how can you protect the people around you?"
"I've met a player from the Demon Slayer Continent, a fellow who seems to be the lord of a town called Asakusa?"
"He said that your world has monsters called demons, countless times stronger than humans. If you just give up the chance to become stronger, how can you contend with demons?"
Whitebeard was very strong.
From a young age, he possessed a body and talent far surpassing ordinary people in the Pirate World, and he had been fighting and battling all his life, deeply understanding that weakness simply could not protect those around him.
Only when one is strong enough can one protect one's family.
"If you give up the people you want to protect right now because you're not strong enough, or because you want to become stronger, then even if you become stronger later, you will still make weak choices!"
"Giant Uncle, what you said is wrong!"
Kyojuro Rengoku responded loudly.
His personality was like this; he got along with everyone, but he also stuck to his own ideas and would not be swayed by changes in the environment.
Sanemi Shinazugawa, who was nearby, was a little worried,
fearing that Kyojuro Rengoku's rebuttal would cause him to be slapped to death by the Whitebeard Giant.
"Gurarararara!"
Whitebeard bent down and directly grabbed Kyojuro,
throwing him like a shot put into the densest area of Red Spectres.
"A loud-mouthed, stubborn brat, daring to contradict this Old Gentleman?"
"With the Reincarnation Game, they won't die at all; do they need your protection?"
Although Whitebeard's tone was reproaching,
his eyes were full of laughter, and he said loudly, "Your mind is too rigid; you must be well-trained. Go take a good bath in the Red Spectre tide for me!"
Kyojuro, who was not a player, hadn't yet grasped the situation.
Under the rules of the Reincarnation Game, no one would die, and what he needed to do now was temporarily abandon the desire to protect the weak and frantically earn reward points to become stronger.
Admiration.
This was Whitebeard's emotion.
He rarely encountered a young man as pure as Kyojuro Rengoku.
Most importantly, the will Kyojuro Rengoku expressed coincided with Whitebeard's thoughts to some extent.
He was also a person willing to risk his life to protect his family.
If a son were captured by Navy Headquarters,
even if the Whitebeard Pirates were not as strong as the opponent, he would lead the charge rather than choose to endure and watch his son be executed.
"Giant Uncle, that's too rude!"
Kyojuro Rengoku's voice came from within the Red Spectre tide.
"Is it rude to want your son to become stronger?"
Whitebeard laughed heartily, and also said loudly, "Kyojuro Rengoku, come be my son!"
