[Holy crap! This guy is insane! He can summon meteors from the sky! Look at the size, our entire town would be obliterated!]
[The meteor's radius must be at least a few kilometers!]
[How can someone summon a meteor from space?! That's unbelievable!]
[I'm starting to think even Whitebeard isn't stronger than him, though I have no idea where he is.]
"You all seriously underestimate young Whitebeard."
Fujitora chuckled at the boasting of nearby gamblers. He muttered casually:
"Summoning meteors from the sky? I'm familiar with that technique. If I get the chance, I'd like to see how we measure up against this guy."
"Hey! Blind guy! Are you betting or not? If you don't, I'm opening the game!"
"I'm betting on triple lions…"
Meanwhile, Saitama was at home, locked in an endless battle with a mosquito for the 300th round, still without a decisive outcome.
Genos was in the kitchen, cooking, when he caught a video of Uchiha Madara summoning meteors.
He nearly dropped the pan in shock.
"Sensei Saitama! Did you see this guy called Uchiha Madara? He's insanely strong!"
Saitama barely glanced up.
"What's up? People have been talking about him during the supermarket promotion today. I was busy hunting monsters, so I didn't pay attention."
Genos quickly plated the food, untied his apron, and ran over excitedly.
"Sensei, that's him! The size of that meteor… it's comparable to the one you destroyed with a single punch before!"
Saitama frowned. Watching Madara's battle, he muttered:
"Strong, indeed. But I've never heard the name… maybe he's not from our planet."
"Sensei, if you fought him, you could probably end it in one punch!"
Genos's eyes sparkled with anticipation. Watching titans clash could teach him a lot.
"Who knows?"
Saitama turned back and resumed his duel with the mosquito.
Meanwhile, in another universe:
Kakarot: [This guy looks so strong. I wonder if my Kaioken-enhanced Kamehameha can break that meteor! I want to try!]
Accelerator: [Useless. In my domain, even the biggest meteor won't survive my wrath!]
Other characters had posted reactions under related videos, but Blaine didn't have the patience to watch each one.
He opened the exchange interface, reflecting on his earlier choice to strengthen his path via the One Piece world.
This time, he would continue pulling from that universe.
After scrolling, he found the option to exchange for Haki of Three Colors:
Armament Haki: 1000 anime coins
Observation Haki: 1000 anime coins
Conqueror's Haki: 1000 anime coins
"Three-color Haki… that's 3,000 coins in total. Not cheap…"
Blaine hesitated. Spending that much would empty his wallet.
A note in the interface read: Three-color Haki requires continuous practice to refine after acquisition.
No matter, Blaine wanted it all. Even if he went broke, it was worth it.
After all, this was only the second video. He could earn more coins later.
He exchanged for all three Haki colors. Three beams of white light shot from the screen.
"Armament!"
Blaine focused, feeling the faint aura wrap around his fingers and wrists.
The Armament Haki was weak, its coverage small.
Compared to anime characters who could control massive areas, this was still underwhelming.
"Well… looks like I'll need to find a few demons to test it on these next few days."
The sun hadn't fully risen. Blaine quickly packed and headed toward the regional border to hunt demons with Wayne.
Near Wano in the One Piece world, Dracule Mihawk had two exhausted monkeys beside him. The others were rapidly sliding toward Wano.
Mihawk had ignored the Navy's calls, he had far more important business.
Soon, he reached Wano's coastline.
A bizarre beast charged from the trees.
A long-starved lion-centaur hybrid roared, lunging at Mihawk.
Mihawk only needed one glance to terrify the creature.
"Perfect… a mount for the journey."
He drew his white blade and tamed the beast. Then he pulled out a map purchased in town, locating a marked spot.
After a long trek, Mihawk arrived at Kasa Village in the Kyuri District.
He found the strongest swordsmith, Tenguyama Hitetsu, disguised in a Tengu mask and costume.
In the treehouse, Mihawk presented the broken Demon Blade Thousand Edge.
Hitetsu froze, he hadn't expected a Warlord of the Sea to come to him.
Even one glance at the broken blade captivated him.
As the strongest swordsmith, Hitetsu had a unique sense of sword power.
The Demon Blade Thousand Edge rivaled his treasured Second Generation Kitetsu and Tenyu Haku Zan.
Other blades from the Twelve Supreme Great Blades couldn't compare.
"This is truly a fine sword, perhaps above even the Supreme Great Blades."
Ignoring the physical blade, merely sensing its aura made Hitetsu sweat profusely, as if Thousand Edge could pierce him in an instant.
"Your reputation as the greatest swordsmith is well-earned.
I have a request: please replicate the Demon Blade Thousand Edge."
"Replicate?"
Hitetsu hesitated. Reproducing this sword wasn't easy.
Mihawk carefully observed his small gestures.
"Name your conditions. If I can meet them, I will."
Hitetsu nodded.
"I recently discovered a rare mineral deep underground. Its texture is similar to this sword.
It might work.
"But you'll have to provide fresh food for the nearby villages, and drive Kaido out of Wano!"
