Slowly clenching his fist, the air around him was swallowed up by a formless shadow. Oppressive, dark, strange … The black light at the bottom of his eyes flickered continuously, as if there was a silent black door that was rotating silently. After a long while, it gradually sank into the depths of his eyes.
His appearance did not change much, but the aura he emitted became more obscure and terrifying. The air around him, the smell of blood and dust, seemed to be blocked by a strange force. It was as if there was an invisible wall separating him from the current world when he walked.
"Advanced level 7!"
Yarlin gently rubbed the cross-shaped mark between his eyebrows and muttered to himself, "The evaluation of the army directly jumped a level, from advanced level 6 to advanced level 7. And, it's far from just that …"
The power of the 'door' was not something that could be quantified. If it was as the broodmother predicted, then the value of this fruit was not even comparable to swallowing a complete world.
Of course, confirming these guesses still required time and preparation!
The more obvious change was that the aura of the apostles around him was rapidly increasing.
This was the core advantage of the evolution path of the 'army' — sharing: sharing all the units transformed by the broodmother, including the five senses. There was no distance limit, and they could be controlled and taken over by the broodmother's consciousness. The strength of each transformed unit was linked and shared with the broodmother (Yarlin's main body). This meant that as the strength of the broodmother increased, the strength of all the transformed units would increase as well. Furthermore, the transformed units with the ability to evolve did not have the upper limit of the broodmother's strength and could surpass the broodmother's.
This increase in strength, in Yarlin's understanding, was more like a system optimization and a comprehensive upgrade. All the 'creatures' linked to him would be 'upgraded' together.
The degree of 'upgrade and optimization' was not a simple increase in intervals. Instead, it followed a kind of internal 'review' mechanism, which could be seen as an inclination in the allocation of resources.
From the results, it could be deduced that the evolution of units with the ability to evolve would take precedence over the ordinary transformed units. This meant that the evolution of an apostle was definitely better than a mass-produced transformed unit. And in the case of an apostle, the evolution of an apostle depended on the final evolution potential of the individual.
The more the Broodmother recognized a unit with more potential for evolution, the more it would improve after sharing. Conversely, it would be weaker.
This assessment of evolutionary potential wasn't set in stone. Instead, after a period of observation and assessment, the broodmother would come up with a 'test score' for the current stage.
Similar to the irregular unit tests, the ranking and potential of the apostles would also face a new round of shuffling.
Arlen had a total of twelve apostles under his command. Since there was a special twin apostle among them, there should be a total of thirteen apostles.
Yarlin's mind was like a slideshow. The information of the 13 apostles was constantly changing. The aura of the four apostles beside him was increasing in strength. However, the one with the greatest increase in aura was not beside him, but the other two apostles.
Sixth Apostle: Twin Portkas D. Ace.
Title: Bloody Red Lotus, Bloodflame Emperor!
Race: Human
Level: Seventh Level High, Evolvable. (Possesses unknown potential)
Mental Strength 91
Nerve conduction rate 87
Bone hardness 92
Muscle activity 93
Blood density flow rate 99
Ability: Bloodflame!
The Flame-Flame Fruit has fused with Dalaran's inheritance, Vincent Moke's bloodline factor, as well as Adams' strange substance. Ability has undergone an unpredictable and strange change.
Blood and flame fused in a strange manner. The burning blood flame can burn all things. Moreover, it possesses an extreme attraction towards blood, able to ignite life through blood.
Current Development: Top level!
Approximately equivalent to swallowing 1.5 Devil Fruits. The potential developed will far exceed that of ordinary ability users. Possesses the characteristics of two types of fruits. Violent and strange. The danger factor increases exponentially.
Note: Blood droplets splattered in the air. Within the raging flames that cover the sky and cover the sun, as long as there is life breathing, the Flame-Lotus Hell will never be extinguished.
1.5 times of potential was terrifying as expected. His situation could be said to be similar to Yarlin's to a certain extent. That was why he also crossed a level, directly entering the seventh level high level, becoming one of the strongest in the army in one fell swoop.
The other was the Seventh Apostle, Gana. To be honest, his original level was even lower than Ace's, but in the end, they both advanced to the seventh level. This was something Yarlin didn't expect.
It had to be known that Gana didn't have a 1.5 times potential coefficient. However, it could be said that he relied purely on himself to make the Broodmother believe that his evolutionary potential was extremely great. It could even be said that in terms of evolutionary potential alone, the Broodmother's evaluation of Gana was at the top of the apostles. That was why the resource allocation ratio was so heavily tilted, allowing him to catch up and leap into the top echelon of the army in one fell swoop.
What Yarlin didn't know was that Gana had even asked Luscai to secretly take him back to the sealed Eastern Seas. They went to Navy Branch 153 and dug out the Golden Lion Shiki's eyeballs from Crowe's hands. After that, they returned to a hidden island on the Grand Line and met up with two other apostles to set up a trap on the island.
At this moment, on a secluded island, Gana was wearing a pair of dark glasses and a white long-sleeved shirt. A sickly smile appeared on his face, and a cold, white eyeball was sewn into the middle of his forehead.
The white eyeball was like a transparent glass, and the flesh around the glass was strangely wrinkled, showing blood-red stripes. He lowered his head to look at his itchy arm, which was forced up, and there was actually a row of dense eyeballs embedded in it.
The eyeballs were pure white and had no pupils. They were all moving strangely, and all of them were staring straight at Gana's face. A bone-chilling aura erupted from his body, and there were many smooth mirrors around him. The corners of Gana's mouth curled up in a sinister arc.
The people in the mirrors were all moving, and all the eyeballs and lines of sight converged on a single point. All of the mirrors suddenly exploded, and Gana's aura rose rapidly, from the middle of the sixth step to the advanced of the sixth step, and then to the seventh step without stopping.
Elementary of the seventh step, middle of the seventh step, advanced of the seventh step …
Gana's eyes slowly closed, and a whisper echoed in his ears, "I, the Seventh Apostle, Gana, am the strongest!"
