GROIKTP Chapter 380

At midnight sharp, Chen Ye appeared in the Reincarnation Space as planned.

Instead of heading straight to the Reincarnation Tower to tackle the 15th-floor trial dungeon, *X-Men: Days of Future Past*, he decided to relax at the bar first. He had devised a bold plan for this dungeon, one that could potentially earn him an Ultra-God rating if executed perfectly.

But if something went wrong…

Chen Ye entered the bar, ordered a booth and a cocktail through the bar’s 3D projection menu, and sat down, sipping his drink slowly. After having tea with Murong Chuxue the last few times, he wanted to try something different tonight.

The bar was lively, filled with Reincarnators, and the music was pumping, making it feel very much like a bar in the real world. The only difference was the unique nature of the cocktail in his hand.

After taking a sip, he felt an immediate sense of euphoria. It was clear that the cocktail, much like a drug, stimulated his nerves and brain, releasing a rush of dopamine.

“No wonder this bar is always packed! Aside from the low prices, the effects of the drinks must be what draws so many Reincarnators in.”

Chen Ye wasn’t in a rush to head to the Reincarnation Tower, as the dungeon wouldn’t start until 1 a.m.

Suddenly, from the booth next to him, a Reincarnator let out a loud shout: “Whoa!!”

His exclamation startled his friends.

“What’s wrong? Why the outburst?” one of them asked.

The man excitedly replied, “Something big just happened! The global leaderboard has changed!”

“What kind of change?”

“Our nation’s number one, Murong Chuxue, just reached S-rank… Although her rank didn’t change and she’s still behind Adam, she’s now an S-rank!”

“Whoa, seriously?”

“Yeah! A friend just told me. I’m going to check it out for myself.”

“I’m coming with you!”

“Wait for me!”

Their conversation, loud enough for nearby patrons to hear, caused a stir among the other Reincarnators in the bar. Many of them decided to follow the group to see what the fuss was about.

Chen Ye, hearing that Murong Chuxue had reached S-rank, smiled slightly. He finished his cocktail in one gulp, got up, and left the booth.

…

Chen Ye made his way to the Reincarnation Tower, heading toward the global leaderboard display.

By now, a massive crowd of Reincarnators had gathered in front of the leaderboard. Many more continued to teleport in from distant locations, all eager to witness the news firsthand.

When Chen Ye arrived at the leaderboard, his eyes immediately locked onto Murong Chuxue’s name in third place, now marked with a red “S” next to it, signifying her newly achieved S-rank.

He knew that Murong Chuxue must have used the Devil Fruit Purification Water to clear her previous fruit and then consumed a new one, which had boosted her power significantly. Prior to this, she had been held back by a subpar Devil Fruit and remained at A-rank.

Clearly, the new Devil Fruit she obtained had greatly enhanced her abilities.

“I wonder what new Devil Fruit Murong Chuxue is using now,” Chen Ye thought, intrigued.

More and more Reincarnators continued to gather, and soon the area beneath the leaderboard was packed.

Voices of excitement and surprise buzzed through the crowd:

“Whoa! It’s true! She’s really S-rank now. Murong Chuxue is incredible!”

“Finally, our nation has an S-rank powerhouse!”

“Murong Chuxue is amazing!”

“Wait, I didn’t hear about her clearing any dungeons. How did her strength suddenly jump to S-rank?”

“Yeah, that’s strange. Last night when she logged off, her rating was still A-rank. How did she reach S-rank so soon after logging in tonight?”

“Could it be that she cleared a personal dungeon?”

“Are you stupid? Personal dungeon tokens are extremely rare, and even if she had one, there hasn’t been enough time. No dungeon is that quick to complete!”

“True, it doesn’t add up…”

…

Listening to the chatter around him, Chen Ye smiled knowingly. He was well aware of how Murong Chuxue had achieved her power boost.

Stepping away from the crowded leaderboard, Chen Ye found a quiet spot and called Murong Chuxue through video chat.

It didn’t take long before Murong Chuxue answered. Her beautiful face appeared on Chen Ye’s screen.

“Shura, good evening!” she greeted him cheerfully.

It was clear from her glowing expression that she was in high spirits.

Chen Ye smiled back, “Congratulations on reaching S-rank, Chuxue!”

Murong Chuxue nodded, “I have to thank you for that, Shura. Without your Devil Fruit Purification Water, I wouldn’t have made it to S-rank.”

“So, my guess was right.”

Chen Ye chuckled, then curiously asked, “Now that your old Devil Fruit is out of the way, can you tell me what your new ability is?”

Murong Chuxue laughed and said, “Of course! It’s the Flower-Flower Fruit!”

Chen Ye paused for a moment, a little surprised.

If he remembered correctly, this was Nico Robin’s Devil Fruit ability!

The Flower-Flower Fruit belonged to the Paramecia class of Devil Fruits. It allowed the user to sprout any part of their body like flowers on any surface, using it for attack or other purposes.

While the Fruit’s attack power wasn’t particularly high, it excelled in versatility, allowing the user to launch surprise attacks.

In *One Piece*, Nico Robin’s use of the Flower-Flower Fruit seemed relatively weak because she wasn’t physically strong. However, if someone like Garp were to use it, the fruit’s ability could be incredibly dangerous!

Murong Chuxue, still full of enthusiasm, continued explaining, “It’s an amazing ability! I can make any part of my body appear on any surface like flowers blooming. It’s great for attacking and controlling enemies… But of course, Shura, it’s nothing compared to your Tremor-Tremor Fruit!”

Chen Ye smiled and said, “You’re being modest, Chuxue. With such a versatile ability, if used properly, it can be incredibly powerful in battle.”
