Ten thousand meters above sea level, Luffy had just concluded his fight with Enel. With his last attack, Luffy smashed Enel into a giant golden bell causing a giant ringing sound to echo all over the sky of Jaya island…

On this island of outlaws lived the descendant of a man called Noland that lived 400 years ago, and he was accused of being a liar since no one believed his stories of ascending to a sky island and discovering a city made of gold there, and eventually, he was executed and a storybook was made to further dishonor his memory, Titled, Noland the liar…

Yuki was surprised when he saw this book in Garp's study, that old man definitely knew about the existence of the sky islands so he clearly didn't get the book to mock Noland, but for what purpose did he have it then… Only that old man knows what's going on inside his head... Other than wanting to eat crackers of course...

Meanwhile, as countless people were shocked by the giant ringing of the bell, Noland's descendant Mont Blanc Cricket cried tears of joy… Finally, his life purpose has been achieved thanks to Luffy, his ancestor wasn't a liar, and he can die in peace knowing that!

…

Inside the Knight pirates' ship, Yuki was casually reading the book he stole from Garp titled Rokushiki Guide book.

"Hmm, even the ultimate technique of this art is included here? Garp is probably seething in anger right now hehehe" Yuki laughed slightly as he read the introduction of the book.

"The human body is like a hidden gem waiting to be uncovered and sharpened into the strongest of weapons, and the Rokushiki is the way to surpass the human limitations. Mastering each one of the skills requires endless training, however by the end of that hellish training, a person can gain a superhuman ability that could make them unmatched in battle and grant them the strength of 100 men!"

'Well, a bit arrogant but I guess they aren't that wrong, these techniques are indeed amazing considering the powers they grant to the user, one of which's the ability to fly!' Yuki thought calmly before he started reading the description of each of the six techniques

"Shigan: Shigan is a close-quarter combat technique, in which the user pushes their finger into a certain target at a very high speed, leaving a wound similar to a bullet wound"

"Soru: Soru allows the users to move at extremely high speeds in order to avoid attacks, as well as to attack at higher speeds and with greater power."

"Geppo: Geppo allows users to push themselves off the air itself with superhumanly strong kicks, allowing them to travel through and remain in midair for an extended period of time

"Rankyaku: Rankyaku is a powerful projectile technique, in which the users start by kicking at very high speeds and strength, which results in a sharp compressed blade of wind or "Sickle Wind" that can slice through objects and greatly damage a human body. Depending on the strength and scale of the technique, it is potentially capable of slashing a whole building in half."

"Tekkai: Tekkai hardens the users' muscles to the level of iron, allowing them to withstand and effectively nullify any damage they might have taken from attacks. Tekkai can also be used to enhance the user's attacks by the increased density one gets from using it. The strength of Tekkai can vary for users with different physical conditions, as a person with a higher level of muscular strength would be able to take stronger forces and enhance their attacks more significantly. Additionally, when Tekkai is active, the user is unable to move unless someone grasps full mastery of it."

"Kami-e: Kami-e allows users to make their body extraordinarily flexible in order to avoid any attacks, float, and bend their body like a piece of paper. At full mastery, the user unlocks Seimei Kikan which allows them to manipulate every single part of their body freely including their hair"

Yuki pondered slightly after reading the descriptions of these techniques before he let out a sigh and thought 'Now that I recall, Lucci was said to have the power of 400 soldiers just thanks to mastering these techniques, and he grew even stronger after gaining his devil fruit… This is truly interesting'

With his thoughts concluded, Yuki was about to start studying how to train in these amazing techniques but a yell suddenly echoed in his head and it almost made his heart jump out of his chest

"I WON!" It was of course Luffy who didn't even realize he was using Dimensional link and almost gave Yuki a well-deserved heart attack…

'It seems like it's time for me to make a move' Yuki thought calmly before he put on his devil mask to hide his presence and threw the Rokushiki book casually to Kayle and said "Read this, It will make you stronger, I will be back after I deal with something..."

Kayle caught the book with interest in his eyes but then he simply nodded and said "As you wish, Yuki-sama"

Nodding at the crafty old man that was barely holding back his excitement, Yuki entered his phantom phasing state and teleported to Luffy's location, and the first thing he realized was that they were both freefalling from the sky…

'Tsk, Luffy, can't you ever finish a fight without collapsing afterward?' Yuki thought helplessly before he kicked the unconscious Luffy in the butt to make sure that he would fall on land before he set his sight on the giant bell not that far from his current location and he instantly disappeared with his Quick Step before anyone could catch a glimpse of him…

'This bell is really made out of gold…' Yuki stared at the giant Shandoran bell with some greed in his eyes, but his sight was then fixed on the tall man splattered on the floor not far from it that reminded him of Eminem for some reason…

"Tsk, Oda and his drawing style, can he be any more ridiculous?" Yuki muttered slightly before he approached the unconscious Enel and directly used his path of evolution ability on him and started absorbing the power of his Thunder Thunder Devil fruit.

And not long after, a notification appeared in front of him

[Congratulations host, the requirement to evolve your Supreme elemental resistance is now 2/5]

'Good, I only need three more… This will probably be the first evolution I will accomplish' Yuki thought with a happy smile on his face before he lowered his head and stared at the unconscious Enel with a devilish smile on his face

"Now then, what should I do with this fella? Kill him? But it would be a waste, the best scenario is to get his devil fruit, even if I don't use it for myself, but I don't know what kind of fruit it is or if it will be possible..." Yuki was really stumped.

Devil fruits have the ability to reincarnate after their user dies, however, he wasn't sure about the requirement for that process to happen… It could be that he needed to gather fruits similar in type to the one Enel originally ate to acquire his current powers, but other conditions might be needed…

'If I recall correctly, this idiot will try to go to the moon after he wakes up and will reawaken some weird robots there, They might prove to be useful in the future. Hmmm… fine… It seems like I can find him easily so letting him go won't be much of a problem, and I can spend this time slowly experimenting with people that have useless devil fruits…'

After concluding his thoughts, Yuki dragged the unconscious Enel to a hidden location on the sky island and dropped him there since it would take him some time to recover his strength and the power to use his devil fruit after Yuki absorbed its essence,

While he was creating a cave for Enel, the latter suddenly woke up and asked coldly "Mortal, where am I, what's this dark place?"

However, Yuki merely glanced at him before he waved his hand and said "Fuck off back to sleep" Then before Enel could react, a Giant rock suddenly fell from the ceiling and knocked him out cold… Meanwhile, after he was done hiding the entrance of the cave and dealing with that tall pile of electric garbage, he went back to the knight pirates' ship…

"What do you think, Kayle?" Yuki asked Kayle who appeared to have finished reading the Rokushiki book and gave it back to him and calmly said "It seems like Yuki-sama is really lazy, giving me this book first… I suppose you want me to teach you while you skip wasting your time huh?"

"Ahum, I don't know what you are talking about, I'm just consulting you considering that you are the oldest here and you have more experience" Yuki felt slightly embarrassed by being figured out by the cunning old man but he shamelessly denied everything…

"Yea Yea…" Kayle shot him a piercing look before he stood in front of Yuki and said " Well, considering your talent, I'm sure you can master them in no time"

"I hope so as well" Yuki responded with a slight smile…

…

Meanwhile, Maou who was following after Kaku and enjoying talking to him while they moved toward the Galley-la company suddenly paused and said "I feel like we passed from here before, are you sure we are moving on the right direction to get to the company you work at?"

A weird light flashed through Kaku's eyes when he heard this 'The moment we passed a road again, he found out that I was leading him in circles, or did he discover this beforehand? This guy's perception is no joke' Kaku wondered in his head, but he quickly let out an awkward chuckle and responded "Eh really? Sorry about that, I've always been bad with directions"

Maou stared at him with a warm smile on his face and responded "It's okay, everyone makes mistakes"

'He really seems like a kind-hearted person… Maybe we are overthinking this new warlord's crew' Kaku thought before he led Maou to Galley-la, this time for real… However, just when he turned his back, a cold light flashed through Maou's blood-red eyes before it quickly disappeared…
