Pirate’s Steel Chain Finger

Today, the residents of Modred Town feel extremely hot.

The moisture in the air seemed to have completely evaporated, the air was full of burnt smell, and the half-dead wind was wrapped in heat waves.

People can feel their dry lips crack and open just by moving their mouths a little bit. The animals barked in panic and ran all over the ground, as if the end of the world was coming.

"It's weird, it's already autumn, why is it suddenly so hot..."

Strolling down the street, Mrs. Jasmine, the proprietress of the'Mrs. Curry' restaurant, walked outside, sweating profusely, holding an empty glass in her hand: "It's almost like it's on fire. The water is gone when half of the water is drunk... Really Strange!"

The owner of the nearby shop also shook his head and walked to the street, looking at the reddish sky, and said strangely: "What's the situation, how did the sky turn red?"

More and more people flocked to the street, and Dr. Sommer and Sergeant Dubin who came to look at each other after hearing the news, they were all surprised: "This is unusual..."

And in the open space on the outskirts of Modred Town, Kira, who was flying with Kid, looked at the horror on the open space with horror.

The clearing ground became dry and cracked, and the surrounding trees and flowers were already blackened and dead. The heat waves visible to the naked eye enveloped the open space, and their "Cousin Raton" stood in the center of the open space with his head hung down and motionless.

"Kid, what the hell is going on!?" Kira was so scared that her scalp was numb, and she quickly turned her head and asked Kid.

"I, I don't know..." Kid cried, "I was practicing sparring with my cousin, and suddenly my cousin stopped moving. I confiscated my hand and hit my cousin in the chest. My cousin looked at me as if he was about to kill, and the whites of his eyes turned black. Then his eyes returned to their original state and let me run away. I just ran out of the open space and found that the open space became like this... Cousin, Cousin will not be killed by me, will he?"

"You fart! Cousin is so strong, how could you hurt him with fists and legs?" Kira scratched his blond hair in a mess: "Damn it... I knew that cousin must be a Devil Fruit capable person. I don’t know what his abilities are, and what he wants to do now when he activates his abilities...Wait, you said that my cousin asked you to run away? Is he able to speak?"

"Yeah...Why didn't I expect this?" Kid suddenly realized: "Cousin did speak in person and made me run away."

"Anyway, my cousin's situation is dangerous now..." Kira looked anxiously at'Cousin Raton' standing motionless in the middle of the clearing, gritted his teeth and said, "Kid, look outside, I'll go in and wake up. cousin."

"You're crazy! The open space is like this, you will be steamed alive within half a minute of going in!" Kid was scared and quickly grabbed Kira's collar: "I ran faster than you, I'll go in! "

"Idiot! What did your short legs say about running fast, I just..." Kira couldn't say anything more than halfway through. He looked pale and his legs trembled constantly.

Kid was frightened by his appearance, and slowly turned his head to look in the direction of the clearing. Then he saw a pair of scary pupils with golden rings and black background.

Cousin Raton didn't know when he had woken up, and was staring at both of them. His eyes reminded the two of the hungry ferocious beasts.

Raton walked towards the two of them step by step, and with each step, the surrounding air became hotter and drier.

His naked upper body gradually showed a crimson flaky outer skin, and the metal mask on his mouth disintegrated and melted, revealing a mouth full of sharp interlaced teeth, and his thick tail swept back and forth from the back of his head to his back. Extending the sharp bone spurs, there is no emotion or humanity in the golden ring-shaped pupils.

How could the two teenagers withstand such turbulent murderous aura, Kira was about to lose her will, Kid half-kneeled and cried out loudly: "Cousin!! Cousin, wake up!"

Raton, who was about to walk in front of the two of them, suddenly froze, then hugged his head and roared in pain like a wounded beast. His golden ring and double pupils flickered, and the bone spurs behind them also shone with a rapid dark red light.

He is struggling, he is trying to get rid of the instinct of [the beast].

"Cousin! Cousin, you have to come on!!" Kid and Kira yelled desperately, cheering for Raton. The two of them also saw Raton's hard work at the moment, but they couldn't do anything but shout for cheer.

After a long time, Raton's all abnormalities disappeared, and he collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.

Just a little bit, just a little bit he was about to be controlled by Devil Fruit's powerful instinct. In that state, he was cold-blooded and violent, and inhumane. He only knew how to destroy and kill, but his consciousness was clear and powerless, and he could only watch another one slaughter and destroy one island after another. After satisfying the desire to kill, he was able to recover some sanity briefly, but would repeat the same process soon.

In the Battle of Green Pepper Island, another [self] was hit hard by the Snake King and fled to this York Island with all his might, and the true self was also "free" for a period of time. But as the body recovered, [the beast]'s instinct began to move around again.

Just now, [I] almost killed these two children who had saved their lives.

[Me]...How long can it last?

"Cousin... Cousin, are you okay?"

Kid and Kira touched tremblingly, trying to help Raton up.

"Huh... I'm running out of time..." Raton shook his head, his voice hoarse and low: "I will teach you how to exercise the'undead armor' as soon as possible, and then I will leave this island."

"Cousin..." The two teenagers looked at Raton with tears in their eyes, and they were extremely desperate. As orphans, they had long regarded Raton, who was also a teacher and friend, as a real family member.

Raton looked at Kira and Kid and became more determined to leave as soon as possible. He didn't want to hurt these two children who were regarded as younger brothers.

"Since there is no need to write on cardboard, we can speed up the tutorial." Raton stood up: "First of all, let's leave here and go home."

The two teenagers nodded and walked with him in the direction of the abandoned warehouse.

And not far from the coast of York Island, the blue Beagle is approaching here quickly.

Victor was standing at the bow, maneuvering the sails and ropes of the Beagle with ease, while Robin stood by his side and showed him the course. Robin himself also knows some sailing skills, which can be used to deal with the open sea when the wind and waves are calm.

"Victor, you can already vaguely see York Island, heading right towards the pier in Modred Town." Robin put down his binoculars and turned his head to say to Victor.

Victor nodded and looked at the sea level in the distance, with a smile of interest at the corner of his mouth:

"Let me see, [Apocalypse] guides me here, what kind of ‘people’ will be waiting for me here?"
