Chapter 514: Effort, Who Isn't Putting in Effort?
Titan World.
Noah's Ark was currently in a green space.
Although from here one could see the Royal Capital below and the Eldian diligently working outside the walls, for the people below, the massive Airship that had obscured the sky for a long time had vanished without a trace.
Im really liked this Otherworld space opened up by Oimo using the Door-Door Devil Fruit Ability, so he often flew to High Altitude to overlook the common people of the 'lower realm'.
How to put it?
This Feeling was indeed very pleasant, a psychological state of being high above and controlling everything.
Every time this happened, he could even keenly sense that his Spirit was slightly stimulated, and the quality of his Haki also improved by that little bit.
As such, Im naturally liked this daily activity even more.
There was nothing he could do.
He couldn't use this 'Yamato' temporarily. Who told him he decided not to give the Souls of this World to 'King Yama', and he didn't want to be constantly urged by the other party.
So, he would wait until the Star Gate to the next World was opened.
It was just that this way, the cultivation of the Soul was also suspended, and the improvement in Haki naturally fell into stagnation again.
However, Im wouldn't let a small obstacle stop him. He increased his investment of energy into Medicine Knowledge and Medical Skill, as well as in-depth Research on Life Return.
The appearance of Muzan Kibutsuji actually gave him great inspiration.
Life Return could allow one to freely control any corner inside and outside the body, including the internal organs, digestive system, self-healing system, etc., by infusing consciousness.
This meant that this was actually a 'Cellular Level' Ability, and it was also a Technique that could be cultivated and improved by oneself.
Theoretically, as long as the Development of Life Return reached a sufficient level, one could completely and gradually become a 'Perfect Being' like Muzan Kibutsuji.
This was a Great Treasure of the Sea Star Civilization, but it had been overlooked by Sea Star Person, including the 'Former Imu', before.
The main reason was the imperfect Education System and insufficient understanding of science, which led to limitations in thinking and imagination far inferior to the people of his Previous Life.
In fact, with Im's current Ability, he should be able to make a severed arm grow back quickly.
But who would break their own arm for no reason?
About ten minutes later.
Im used 'Teleportation' to return to the Empty Throne. As soon as he sat down, he saw Stussy walking into the Main Hall on the Red Carpet in High Heels, then Respectfully Reported.
"Reporting to Lord Imu, twenty minutes ago, News came from the Five Elders that the Yasopp you were concerned about has agreed to join Cipher Pol, but Benn Beckman refused the invitation on the grounds that he wanted to be an 'Otherworld Adventurer' more."
"In addition, Morgan William, a Logia System Steam Fruit Ability User highly concerned by the Five Elders, also refused to join Marine Headquarters."
After listening, a hint of regret flashed in the depths of Im's Gaze, but on the surface, he maintained natural calmness.
Between Yasopp and Beckman, the latter was clearly of greater Value to the World Government.
But it was just like this, it wasn't enough for him to make a big fuss about it.
"Forget it, it's quite good to have one 'Highest Combat Power' among the 'Top 100' group. Perhaps there will be a place where he can be useful later," Im thought to himself.
"Lord Imu, also, Cipher Pol found the young man named Kuro you mentioned a few days ago in the East Blue. He is now being taken to the Cipher Pol Headquarters for training as per your Order."
"Understood."
Im's slightly depressed mood recovered quite a bit. Although the World's most intelligent Beckman was gone, gaining a 'Hundred Plans' who ranked among the top three in World intelligence was also good.
As for the other one, Nami, she hadn't even been born yet.
"How is Redfield doing?"
"According to the News from the Five Elders, Redfield has not yet found the Op-Op Fruit," Stussy replied softly.
"However, he found a Paramecia System Spring Fruit in the Berenick Kingdom, and Cipher Pol personnel from the North Blue are already on their way to receive it."
"Spring Fruit..."
Needless to say, Im naturally remembered Bellamy. His Age seemed similar to Drake's, so he should be in his teens now.
But he didn't know where he lived when he was a Child, maybe in that Berenick Kingdom. However, he felt that Bellamy's Potential was just average and not worth sending someone specifically to look for him.
"Anything else?"
"The Matters for today have been Reported."
Im nodded, Stand Up and instructed, "Have Hippocrates prepare. Today's Surgery tutorial will continue."
"Yes!"
Stussy quickly walked out of the Main Hall after hearing this to notify him. She was actually very confused about why Lord Imu wanted to learn Medical Skill, but she only thought about such Matters in her Heart.
Im sat on the Throne on the triple platform, silently watching her retreating figure leave.
Actually, he had thought before about whether to invite a famous Doctor from the Medical Academy to be his Medicine Teacher, or to conceal his Identity and appearance and directly enter the Medical Academy to study, feigning weakness.
But in the end, he felt it was unnecessary and dismissed these Thoughts.
Mainly, Im learned that the Medical Director of this Noah's Ark, Doctor Hippocrates, was himself a World-class Doctor.
Compared to Dr. Kureha, he might be slightly inferior, but compared to Crocus, he was quite evenly matched.
This level of Medical Skill was more than enough to teach him.
While the people below were preparing, Im thought for a moment and used 'Teleportation' again, disappearing from the Throne.
He first glanced at Enel, who was undergoing high-intensity Martial Arts training with Humandrills and Kung Fu Dugong, then arrived at the Shiganshina District in the southern part of Wall Maria.
This place originally had very dense Building structures, but now most of them had been cleared into Open Ground, and the interiors of the Buildings had also been completely opened up, turning into 'Large Dormitory' where hundreds of people lived together.
Because at this Time, the Eldian needed to perform labor in Various Places on Paradis Island.
For example, planting or cutting Black Gold Bamboo, or digging for 'Iceburst Stone' inside the mountain caves, so the Streets Inside the City appeared very desolate.
Im was not interested in these.
Instead, he quietly watched Historia, who was doing gymnastics and exercising with many Children in a newly built Orphanage.
Both her and the surrounding Children had constant Smiles on their faces, as if everything outside had nothing to do with this place.
This was the result of Historia's Effort.
It was strange.
Even though the suffering of this World could be said to be entirely due to the Orders he issued, Im just liked to see Historia's current appearance.
An Eldian Queen who was very cheerful, Strong, and dared to bear the responsibility of her nation.
He knew this Woman was actually very hardworking.
Not only did she spend a few hours every day accompanying Children at an Orphanage, but she also had to pay attention to whether her people were being excessively Abused by the guards.
After returning to Noah's Ark, she also had to desperately train her Swordsmanship, Martial Arts, Haki, and the use of various 'Power of the Titans'.
Im quietly watched for ten minutes through a layer of light green space, then silently disappeared from the spot again. After returning to Noah's Ark, he began to seriously practice various Surgery Technique with Chief Steward Hippocrates in an Operating Room.
She was putting in Effort, and wasn't he doing the same...
