Chapter 154 A Big Shot!

Select whether to become the [Final Flame] container, which can be detached within ten seconds.
The number of draws has been used and cannot be returned.
……
The tiny flame was golden in color, and its burning posture was extremely twisted and unstable, giving off a strong sense of madness just by looking at it.
Is this thing more relevant to me than the Ten-Tails?
Allen's thoughts shifted,
Is it because of... my kaleidoscope?
Judging from the description, this flame looks a lot like a replica of Amaterasu, but an enhanced version.
Illusion's perception not only affects others... but it also constantly burns his own spirit!
……
The kaleidoscope's eye technique is the melting of the physical body; this flame is the melting of the spirit.
According to the instructions, it is impossible to tame it...
The only options are either to be burned to death out of control or to disappear when the fire runs out.
Just like its name - the embers of the end.
……
No normal person would choose to accept something that seems to have no good outcome.
But the fact that Allen was able to draw this thing means he's not a normal person.

Allen realized why Huo Qiushan was afraid of him.
Let's return to the essence of the kaleidoscope.
A normal awakening of the Kaleidoscope usually requires witnessing the death of one's closest and dearest loved ones, where extreme love transforms into extreme pain.
Power naturally carries an ominous aura, inspiring fear.
The kaleidoscope is both a blessing and a curse, a contradictory and twisted combination.
……
Therefore, Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage and an expert in Uchiha studies, determined...
The Uchiha clan is a dangerous group; even the most normal Uchiha will go insane once they awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan.
The generation of special chakra will fix the emotions of the Mangekyou user at the moment of awakening, making it difficult for them to break free for the rest of their lives.
Every single one of the Mangekyou Sharingan users in the ninja world was an extreme fanatic before they were defeated.
If you think about it this way, some of his measures become understandable.
If you lived next to a group of mentally ill people who seemed normal most of the time, but could suddenly go berserk and attack people, wouldn't you be scared?
The targeting and control of the Uchiha clan can only be described as him doing what he was supposed to do in his position.
……
……
Unlike Allen, he didn't suffer any psychological trauma when he activated the Kaleidoscope, and his overall attitude remained positive and optimistic.
Sometimes his extreme behavior is due to his personality, not because of the kaleidoscope.
Therefore, even after the kaleidoscope was activated, there was no drastic change in personality.
……
It's about temperament...
The lingering embers of the end gave Allen a subtle, extremely insane and obsessive quality.
Lucci and Dol are so used to being together that they don't notice, or they simply don't care?
……
Rayleigh sensed it.
He watched from afar when Allen first seemed to awaken his Kaleidoscope Sharingan, and the cold, terrifying aura he exuded left a deep impression on him.
This makes it even harder to explain.
The existence of the Last Flame fills the gap in the Kaleidoscope's "inherently evil" setting, and in some people's eyes, Allen is simply insane.
Thinking back now...
When they returned, Akainu asked about Allen's mental state.
At the time, Allen felt that he was an older man who was trying to make conversation with young people because of a generation gap.
……
I'm perfectly fine; that thing hasn't affected me at all, that much is certain.
Allen stroked his chin, deep in thought.
You should pay attention to your demeanor.
From Garp's perspective, am I a demon like Im and the Five Elders?
I heard that Garp returned to headquarters from G-3 branch during this time and will participate in the commendation ceremony and Shanks' public execution.
If we meet...
That old guy has no class; he deliberately started it.
Thinking this, eight cross-shaped ice flowers unfolded around the golden spark deep within his consciousness.
The intertwining threads of ice and fire create a delicate balance.
……
Lu Qi raised an eyebrow.
He sensed a subtle change in Allen's demeanor.
There used to be a familiar, dark sense of justice about him, but now it's gone.
……
It doesn't matter, anything is fine.
Looking to the side, Dor looked at the attic building with great curiosity.
Oh……
You thick-skinned woman, you know nothing.
Even if you follow Allen first, so what? You don't understand his heart at all!
……
Why are you staring at me?
Sensing Lucci's gaze, Dol turned and questioned him.
"It's nothing."
Lu Qi sneered inwardly, standing quietly with his hands behind his back.
……
……
With that inexplicable sense of oppression gone, Huo Qiushan felt much more relaxed.
Turning to look at Green Pepper and the others...
Hmm... expecting these roughnecks to read between the lines is too much to ask.
Was Major General Allen angry just now?
My humble attitude must have worked to calm him down.
Sigh, what will the Babao online army do without me...?
……
Allen sipped his pomegranate-flavored juice and took the ledger from Huo Qiushan.
"As agreed, 80% of the profits of the Babao Naval Force over the years, excluding expenses, have been collected into the treasure vault beneath the ice of Baoyu Ice Mountain."
"Subtracting what you previously withdrew..."
"If your share is converted into Berries, it should be around 27.2 billion Berries."
……
……
Allen listened to Huo Qiushan's story as he flipped through the account books.
Close the ledger.
"No problem, but it would be best to exchange the Berries in the treasure vault for gold or other rare minerals, and instead buy famous swords and Devil Fruits."
Huo Qiushan wisely refrained from asking why and simply nodded in agreement.
Someone who wasn't very bright spoke up.
"What's the use of Devil Fruits and famous swords? Berry is so great, he can buy whatever he wants anytime."
Green Pepper chewed on some fruit and pouted, "Hey Allen, it's not that I'm heartbroken about this treasure, but you're already a big shot at sea. You should be aiming for something even greater."
"I think you might surpass Garp in the future, so put more effort into your training."
……
"Well said, shut up next time."
Allen glanced at him indifferently, the three tomoe in his eyes swirling.
The green pepper shuddered, feeling a stinging sensation of being seen through and controlled.
The sensation was fleeting, and Allen deactivated his Sharingan.
He wasn't trying to intimidate the young players for no reason, but rather...
"You've gotten weaker, Green Pepper."
……
I thought that the cone I used to hit the green pepper three years ago would give him a second spring in his career, but now it seems...
The main reason for the decline in the strength of green peppers is old age, not just the reason of being flattened like a cone.
……
Green Pepper rubbed the back of his head and smiled nonchalantly: "It's normal for people to get weaker as they get older; their stamina just can't keep up anymore."
"But don't worry, I'll definitely be able to train a qualified successor before I can't work anymore!"
……
"Don't worry, I've never trusted you." Allen shook his head helplessly and chose to talk to Huo Qiushan.
"Please take good care of things here..."
He turned to look at Lao Cai and Bu Wu.
"Come with me, and I will teach you the secrets of the Eight-Strike Fist."
Green Pepper is too unreliable; he might get defeated and kicked out of the Seven Warlords of the Sea at any time.
At that time, I wouldn't look good either, so I should cultivate a few more treasure keys.
……
"Really?! That's great!!"
"Lord Allen, we will definitely study hard and live up to your expectations!"
"I have a friend who admires you very much. Can he follow you?"
Everyone in the Eight Treasures Navy knows that Allen's Eight-Strike Fist has surpassed all previous masters and reached a higher level.
……
After a while, Green Pepper looked at the empty hall, reached out as if to grab something but missed.
That doesn't make sense...
I am the twelfth generation leader of the Eight Treasures Navy and the inheritor of the Eight Trigrams Fist!
Huo Qiushan patted his old friend's hand: "It's a good thing that Lao Cai and the others are following Lord Allen. Haven't you noticed that the pirates who come to Sabaody for coating have been deliberately avoiding us lately?"
"You think it was your reputation that intimidated them? No..."
"It's because of the person standing behind us."
……
"Watch your words next time you meet him; he's now... a truly important person!"

The next day.
Marine Headquarters - Marineford.
The silver-white warships sailed into the harbor, where the shore was already bustling with noise.
As the gangway descended, the marines, who were already prepared, lit the fuse.
The cannons, like fireworks, roared like thunder.
