Chapter 42 - Chapter 42 Administrator-Exclusive Function, Strengthening Devil Fruits

After entrusting Kanroji Mitsuri to Black Rabbit, Lin Que returned directly to his room.

After silently zoning out and briefly chatting in the group, he, now temporarily free, turned his attention to the chat group's new functions.

With Aizen and Jackie Chan joining the chat group, bringing the total to ten members, two new functions were unlocked: Administrator and Item Enhancement.

The former goes without saying; as the only administrator currently, Lin Que had deeply experienced the benefits of being an administrator.

Not only did he receive more points from daily sign-ins, but crossing worlds only cost 100 points.

Moreover, after becoming an administrator, an exclusive function, [Immigration], was unlocked.

[Immigration: Allows the expenditure of an indefinite amount of points to change the target's initial world, allowing them to permanently reside in another world.]

In simple terms, it's like changing someone's household registration.

For example, Kanroji Mitsuri's original household registration was in the Demon Slayer World.

After Lin Que spent 1000 points, her household registration was successfully changed to the Box Garden World, which is a very practical function.

If there was any downside, it was the somewhat high point cost.

Immigration's price is determined by the target's strength.

It cost 1000 points just to change the household registration for Kanroji Mitsuri, whose strength was still within the normal human range.

To immigrate some strong individuals, the required points would probably reach an astronomical figure.

"The best immigration targets are those with average strength but great potential."

"The environment in Hakoniwa is very suitable for new growth; bringing over potential stocks can help them grow faster."

Of course, those who can be brought over must be potential stocks like Kanroji Mitsuri, who are obedient or have good personalities.

Lin Que does not plan to bring over someone like the Empress from the One Piece World.

Her personality is too arrogant; even if she is 'beaten' into submission by Lin Que, problems will still arise when she faces others.

Rather than bringing her over and increasing internal conflicts, it is better to leave her in the One Piece World.

Anyway, it only costs him 100 points a day to travel between worlds.

He can occasionally visit her when he goes to play with Nami, and bring some items that extend life and preserve youth.

Lin Que shifted his gaze from the immigration function to another function unlocked in the chat group: [Item Reinforcement].

"Item Reinforcement: Reinforce a specified item. The higher the reinforcement requirements, the more points consumed."

Unlike the traditional online game reinforcement where an item's overall performance is improved after one reinforcement,

the reinforcement unlocked by the chat group allows one to select the specific aspects to reinforce before doing so, enabling targeted reinforcement.

Taking the Nichirin Blade from the Demon Slayer World as an example, Lin Que can specifically choose to reinforce one ability from sharpness, durability, overall weight, the amount of sunlight contained within the blade, and so on.

If he has enough points to increase the amount of sunlight, he could even make the Nichirin Blade itself a new source of sunlight.

Then, when facing demons, he would not even need to fight; just pull out the blade and let them be exposed to sunlight, whoever comes will die.

"Thinking about it this way, maybe I can find a weapon with flashy special effects and just maximize its effects."

Lin Que's face showed a thoughtful expression.

This plan, to be honest, was quite tempting.

When they confront each other, he will pull out a weapon with max-level special effects.

He wouldn't even need to start fighting; his aura would already be far superior to the opponent's.

"I'll try it if I get the chance later."

Without a suitable weapon at hand, Lin Que temporarily put this idea aside, then took out a Gift Card and retrieved a Devil Fruit from it.

When he returned from the One Piece World before, Lin Que naturally did not just bring back the cultivation method for Haki.

After taking down the World Government, Lin Que still obtained many other good things.

The Devil Fruit he is currently holding is one of them.

Zoan Devil Fruit, Mythical Zoan: Gourmet Fruit form.

As a Mythical Zoan, which is rarer than a Logia type, the value of this Devil Fruit goes without saying.

Upon discovering such a good item in the World Government's treasury, Lin Que directly confiscated it and put it into his Gift Card.

According to the original plan, he was going to sell this Devil Fruit to group members at a low price as one of the items to establish his persona.

But with the item reinforcement function, Lin Que had a new idea.

This thing might be reinforced and then given to Kanroji Mitsuri.

"Reinforce the Gourmet Fruit, remove its negative effects."

"Reinforcement requires 5000 Group Points. Do you wish to pay?"

"Hmm? Why does it need so much?"

Lin Que was a bit surprised.

As an administrator, he gets a 50% discount on item reinforcement.

Even after the discount, it still costs 5000 points, which is a bit high.

"Could it be that the restriction of only being able to eat one Devil Fruit is also considered a negative effect?"

Lin Que thought for a moment and rephrased it.

"Remove the side effect of the Gourmet Fruit making the eater afraid of seawater."

"Reinforcement requires 1000 points. Do you wish to pay?"

"This is much more normal."

Glancing at his high personal treasury of 130,000 points, Lin Que chose to pay.

"Reinforcement complete. The Gourmet Fruit's side effect has been successfully removed."

"It doesn't look like there's any change."

Lin Que examined the reinforced Gourmet Fruit in his hand.

From its appearance, this Gourmet Fruit still looked the same as before, without any changes.

But in reality, the Gourmet Fruit has now had its fear-of-water side effect removed.

Even if someone eats it, they will only gain the abilities brought by the Gourmet Fruit, and will not fear seawater.

"That's about it."

Lin Que did not continue to reinforce it.

Anyway, he wasn't using it himself, so removing the fear-of-water side effect was enough.

The remaining points would be more valuable for traveling to other worlds than for reinforcing Devil Fruits.

Taking the reinforced Gourmet Fruit, Lin Que walked towards the door.

It was about time; Black Rabbit should have finished her introduction.

After giving the Gourmet Fruit to Kanroji Mitsuri, he could continue to slack off.
