Between Two Worlds: Nen and Haki Chapter 47 47 Let's Duel!

Manlong was reliable after all.

Compared to the beasts the crew had managed to capture, the Sea King that Manlong brought back was of significantly higher quality.

Of course, every little bit counts.

If they couldn't catch any more Sea Kings later, they would just have to make do with the island's beasts for a while before setting out.

With that thought in mind, Zane gave Manlong a quick greeting and walked toward the Sea King.

[LET'S DUEL!]

Standing before the massive head of the Sea King with a slight smirk, Zane imdiately activated his Nen ability.

Whoosh!

Before anyone could react, Zane and the Sea King suddenly vanished from the shore.

"What's going on?"

"Where's the Captain?"

"What just happened?"

"..."

The sudden disappearance of Zane and the Sea King left the crew in a state of shock.

Manlong was no exception; his expression shifted instantly as he rushed forward to investigate.

As for Zane.

He had already appeared in a vast, open area that resembled a plaza.

No!

To be more precise, he had entered his own Nen space.

As a Conjurer, the things he could manifest were not limited to physical objects; he could also create entire spaces.

This Nen space was known as the Equality Space.

At the sa ti, Zane's Nen ability was nad [LET'S DUEL!].

The ability was simple: it could forcibly pull a chosen target into his own Nen space.

Just as it was now, Zane was not alone in the Equality Space; the Sea King chosen as his opponent was there with him.

Although it had been transferred to another space, the Sea King remained unconscious.

Zane showed no rcy, stepping forward and shattering the beast's head with a single punch.

Flesh and blood splattered everywhere.

But in the next second, both the corpse and the scattered remains rapidly transford into particles, eventually converging into three spheres of light.

Each sphere glowed with a different color.

From left to right, they were red, blue, and green.

Regarding the changes to the corpse and the appearance of the light spheres.

As the developer of the ability, Zane naturally found nothing strange about it.

He reached directly for the red sphere.

He grabbed it, and it was instantly refined!

The mont he grasped the red light, it turned into particles and rged into Zane's body.

Simultaneously, the other two spheres also disintegrated into particles, scattering through the Equality Space like falling petals.

"Refreshing!"

As the particles from the red sphere entered his body, Zane let out a contented sigh.

Right now, it felt as if he were soaking in a hot spring; a wave of comfort washed through his entire being.

At the sa ti, his body underwent a transformation, his physical capabilities rapidly improving.

Indeed.

By absorbing the red sphere, his physical attributes had been enhanced.

Nen Ability: [LET'S DUEL!]

Once activated, it forcibly pulls a selected target into the Equality Space.

The Equality Space follows two major rules.

One: All Beings Are Equal.

Using Zane as the standard for equality, it is divided into two modes.

The first mode is Ordinary Mode.

There are no restrictions on either side of the duel; both can exhaust all their power until one party dies.

The second mode is Prohibited Mode.

Zane can select and ban a specific type of ability for both parties.

Two: Winner Takes All.

The loser becos nourishnt for the winner.

Just as Zane had done monts ago.

The winner of the duel can plunder one non-prohibited attribute from the loser.

Red, blue, and green represent Physical, ntal, and Technical attributes, respectively.

By plundering the Sea King's physical attributes, Zane's own body naturally received a boost.

Of course, plundering attributes did not yield a simple additive effect.

After all, the developnt of a Nen ability requires logic.

Or rather, it must follow the principle of equivalent exchange.

Just like the Equality Space itself.

To ban a certain ability, Zane must first ban his own.

Similarly, in Winner Takes All.

If the enemy is defeated, Zane can plunder one of their attributes; however, if he loses, the enemy can plunder his in return.

As if absolute equality truly exists in this world!

Having finished the absorption and feeling his improved physical stats, Zane stretched, a knowing smirk playing on his lips.

Right—if it were truly equal, what would be the point of him playing?

Between the two major rules of the Equality Space, 'All Beings Are Equal' was the core.

If Zane wanted to ban a certain ability, he did have to ban his own as well, but that didn't an he was actually fighting the enemy on level ground.

Take Nen for example.

In the Hunter world, once he chose to ban Nen, the enemy would inevitably beco like a toothless tiger, losing their most powerful weapon.

But what about him? He still had Haki, and he could even obtain Devil Fruits in the future.

The reverse was also true.

In the One Piece world, he could ban Haki or Devil Fruits, and then use Nen to let them feel the weight of an iron fist from another world.

"Heh!" Zane couldn't help but laugh out loud at the thought of the situations his future enemies would face.

Whoosh!

"Boss!!"

"The Captain appeared!"

"You scared ! Captain, where did you go just now?"

"..."

When Zane exited the Equality Space and returned to the shore, he was t by Manlong and the others, who were frantically searching for him with wide eyes.

Zane's sudden appearance startled them, but they quickly rushed forward to ask what happened.

"It's nothing serious. I was just testing out a Devil Fruit ability," Zane said nonchalantly, pinning his Nen ability on the Devil Fruits.

Regardless, Devil Fruit powers in this world were incredibly diverse; pretending [LET'S DUEL!] was one would be no problem at all.

"A Devil Fruit ability?"

Manlong and the others looked surprised, but then they had a realization.

Although they were a bit taken aback that Zane was a Devil Fruit user, the explanation of a fruit power allowed them to make sense of his sudden disappearance.

After that brief interlude, Zane continued his plundering.

Selecting the two strongest beasts from those captured, Zane once again seized their physical attributes to further enhance his own.

Then, he stopped.

It couldn't be helped.

Even though Zane had tried his best to make [LET'S DUEL!] follow the logic of equivalent exchange, constructing the two major rules had still required a significant price.

That price was Vows and Restrictions.

There were two restrictions.

One: [LET'S DUEL!] can only be activated three tis a day.

Two: For plundered special attributes, there are initially only three imprint entries; any more require constant sacrifice to increase.

The forr was easy to understand.

As for the latter, so-called "special attributes" referred to Nen and Devil Fruit abilities.

These two types of attributes were inherently different from basic attributes like Physical, ntal, and Technical.

They were much harder to plunder.

Therefore, Zane had to establish Vows and Restrictions, creating the branch of imprint entries.

As for sacrifice.

This was Zane's supplent to the limitations on imprint entries.

He would take the remaining attributes that couldn't be plundered as offerings to the Equality Space, thereby nurturing more imprint entry slots.

In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.

"The effect is getting weaker and weaker..."

Inside the Equality Space, Zane skillfully dispatched a beast and plundered its physical attributes.

Feeling the slight improvent in his body, Zane let out a sigh.
