APJ Chapter 188 Even a boar has to find a way to repay the debt

Previous ChapterNext Chapter


As an Ancient Zoan, there is no record of the specific ability of this Human-Human Fruit in the illustration book. Rather than giving it to a human, it would be more advantageous for an animal to consume it.

Chopper, who had eaten the Human-Human Fruit, has already proven this point, and the strength of a Millennial Dragon far surpasses that of an ordinary reindeer.

Although the Millennial Dragon possesses Archeops modified form, Arceus’ modification is not like a Devil Fruit. While the modified form retains its uniqueness due to physical limitations, the creatures that have undergone directed modification can still consume a Devil Fruit.

People who obtain abilities through the modified fruit cannot consume a second fruit.

However, even for those who have gained abilities without consuming a fruit, most of them do not seek to eat another fruit. The fear of seawater and Seastone is a severe debuff; at least they are not interested if it is an ordinary ability.

In fact, it has been proven that this Caveman Fruit is already very close to a modern human’s species. Although it grants greater strength and robustness, there has also been an improvement in intelligence level.

After consuming the Caveman Fruit, communication is no longer difficult for it. This allows for better communication within the Beasts Pirates’ air cavalry.

It can understand the meaning behind the boar’s roar, which helped understand the reason behind its madness, which it conveyed to Olga.

“Why did it come to this place looking for its child?”

However, once the reason was understood, stopping it became simple. Despite its large size, it was still just a wild boar, lacking human intelligence.

Zoroark’s illusions cannot be seen through by humans with weak Observation Haki, let alone a wild boar. Previously, it had not realized that the city walls were fake.

But the frenzy caused by losing its child led it to charge straight into the city walls. Olga despises such recklessness as her own illusions were ultimately fake.

They can be easily broken by a reckless creature who uses only brute-force, but knowing the source makes it even easier.

“You guys keep it engaged for a while! I’ll be right back!”

Saying that, Olga urged her Millennial Dragon to fly after the fleeing people so that she can know the appearance of the Mountain God’s child from them and then she used the illusion to create a fake small boar.

This time, they managed to deceive the Mountain God and lure it away. However, this is not a long-term solution; she can’t maintain this illusion indefinitely.

“Where did that little boar run off to?”

The boar known as the Mountain God seems to hold some symbolic significance in Wano Country. Last time, Kozuki Oden cut it in half to save people and then sewed it back together.

So they were currently contemplating how to send the boar back. Based on past experiences, it seems that as long as they can find the small boar, everything will be resolved.

“It seems to be telling your illusion not to chase after strange things anymore. It would be troublesome if it were abducted.”

“Go roll call those Whimsicott and see if anyone is missing.”

The importance of being fluent in a foreign language was fully demonstrated at this moment because the Millennial Dragon could understand the boar’s words, making everything easier.

Occasionally, a few Whimsicott would run out of the ranch’s boundaries. If it didn’t rain, they would return on their own when the wind stopped.

But during their disappearance, they usually engage in mischievous acts, such as randomly scattering hair in people’s homes, causing the rooms to be filled with cotton.

However, this did not elicit any resentment from the people. Cotton is a valuable material, and the cotton discarded by a Whimsicott is enough for them to make a small cotton hat. They consider it a blessing from the God of Cotton.

According to the personalities of those Whimsicott, it is very likely that if one of them drifted into the deep mountains and found the little boar amusing, they would lure it out.

Due to the drifting nature of Whimsicott and Jumpluff, as well as Whimsicott’s mischievous tendencies, it is necessary to roll call their names every night to ensure that they all return.

So those Whimsicott are all numbered, and if one is missing, all they have to do is call the names.

As for how to find the missing Whimsicott, other Whimsicott can smell the unique scent of their companions, so they just need to go with the others to find them.

The people who left with the Whimsicott quickly identified the missing Whimsicott through the roll call, and there was more than one.

“Big Sister, No. 18, 29 and 31 are missing.”

“Well, then go and find them. Do you think I have time to spare?”

The subordinate looked at the bucket of roasted cotton seeds that Olga was holding and thought for a moment, but decided not to say that she indeed looked free. At this moment, he envied the life of an officer.

In fact, there is fierce competition within the Beasts Pirates. If you want to achieve the same status as others, challenging them is the best way.

After several years of training, Olga is no longer a reserve member who cannot be challenged, but those who tried to challenge her were all tragically toyed around by her illusions.

Challenging other officers would result in a beating, but by challenging Olga, they might end up beating oneself. It would not only be painful but also embarrassing.

And Olga indeed couldn’t spare the time. She must keep maintaining her illusion ability within this range. But other than that, she didn’t care about anything else.

Creating an illusion to deceive the giant boar was now easy for her.

In the end, they found a white wild boar in the nearby barn. Compared to its massive parent, its size could be considered quite tiny.

But there was a problem. This warehouse is where the Eldegoss’ seeds were stored, and now those seeds have been all eaten up by three Whimsicott and the little boar.

Judging from their bloated bellies, this wild boar might be the one who ate the most.

“How can it eat this much? We have to deliver them in a few days.” Looking at the empty warehouse, Olga felt a bit complicated.

“Big Sister, I don’t think it has been long since it ate them. Maybe we can…” He drew out a knife from his waist and gestured towards the wild boar, suggesting slaughtering it and retrieving the seeds. There might still be a chance.

“Forget it. If the seeds are already eaten by the boar, others probably won’t eat them. Let others decide how to handle this boar.”

Originally, this matter was straightforward: find the little boar and send it back. After all, it was these few lost Whimsicott that caused this situation.

Due to the uncontrollable nature of the wind, incidents like this do happen from time to time. But who would have thought that the little boar would eat up all the goods. Although Eldegoss will produce new seeds in a day or two, there will undoubtedly be a delay.

Furthermore, considering the tough skin and thick flesh of the large wild boar, as well as its symbolic significance, she felt that there might be someone interested in it.

Nowadays, there are more and more strange animals within the Beasts Pirates, but there hasn’t been one with such a large size yet.
