From the moment Kenji decided to test until he had completed testing all possible permutations and combinations, it only took him less than five minutes.
During these five minutes, the three successful comprehensions took a bit more time, otherwise, it could have been completed even faster.
And after testing all the upgrade combinations, the third upgrade allocation still yielded the best results. It was a roundabout way of getting back to where he started.
'I'll upgrade and allocate points like this then.'
Kenji deactivated his Future Vision ability, and the trait interface reappeared in his vision.
Then, following the third allocation plan, his gaze lingered on the '+' sign after [Super Comprehension], and he mentally tapped the '+' sign three times in a row.
[Your Super Comprehension (Blue) has been upgraded… Dark Blue… Super Blue… Light Purple!]
[Your Super Comprehension trait has advanced!]
[Current Super Comprehension (Light Purple)!]
'Hmm, then next…'
Kenji's gaze shifted, finding [Giant Bloodline], which was the only one glowing red among the rows of traits.
Without any hesitation, he aimed at the '+' sign behind the trait and tapped it repeatedly. If it weren't for the insufficient upgrade attempts, he would have tapped until it smoked.
As the trait continuously upgraded, the red glow gradually deepened.
[Your Giant Bloodline (Light Red) has been upgraded… Red… Dark Red!]
[Current Giant Bloodline (Dark Red)!]
[Name: Kenji]
[Abilities: Armament Haki (Super Gold), Observation Haki (Super Gold), Conqueror's Haki - God's Domain (Purple), Physique - Human (Super Gold), Hand-to-Hand Combat (Light Gold), Swordsmanship (Super Gold), Sea King Power (Super Blue), Superspeed Regeneration (Dark Purple), Steel Balloon (Super Gold), Future Vision (Light Gold), Berserk (Super Purple), Giant Bloodline (Dark Red), Super Comprehension (Light Purple)]
Kenji carefully examined the trait interface, his gaze sweeping over each trait. On the surface, only [Super Comprehension] and [Giant Bloodline] were upgraded this time, but what he gained was far more than that.
In terms of actual combat power, [Super Comprehension] alone was equivalent to countless other traits. However, at the same time, this also required the cooperation of traits like [Giant Bloodline] and [Physique].
For example, if he hadn't upgraded [Giant Bloodline], he would have at most comprehended two of the three Devil Fruit abilities this time.
And in this comprehension attempt, although he couldn't comprehend all Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit abilities due to the limitations of the two trait's strength, Kenji actually suffered no loss. His Devil Fruits were still safely tucked in his embrace.
Using the Devil Fruit abilities from the future scenes to comprehend them, one could say, was quite a cheat.
Cheating! Cheating always feels good!
It's just that there weren't many devil fruit users on Egghead Island, so he lacked cheating material. However, Kenji didn't care much, he would have plenty of opportunities in the future anyway.
Moreover, when [Giant Bloodline] and [Super Comprehension] are upgraded and advanced again in the future, he will definitely be able to comprehend rarer Devil Fruit abilities, even the Time-Time Fruit.
Kenji had skipped the Time-Time Fruit ability in this test because there was no need. He would have plenty of opportunities to comprehend the Time-Time Fruit ability in the future.
Besides, the main purpose this time was to test his abilities.
Kenji estimated that abilities like the Time-Time Fruit's likely belonged to the rarest category of Devil Fruit abilities.
Other Devil Fruit abilities, even the legendary Nika, at most chose a host, but at least they could still be searched for. However, this Time-Time Fruit was formidable. If its devil fruit user was unhappy, they could jump out of the current space-time, making them impossible to find.
To comprehend such rare Devil Fruit abilities, [Giant Bloodline] and [Super Comprehension] would need to be further upgraded and practiced.
'Hmm, when will the next assignable upgrade reward be?' Kenji put away the trait interface and suddenly thought of something.
'The previous choice mission should only be the first stage, right?'
'Even if there are no more choice-type missions in the future, other missions are highly likely to appear.'
Kenji thought that since he had chosen to attack Saturn, the system should classify the World Government and the Holy Land behind the Five Elders as hostile factions. At least, they would no longer be classified as allied factions.
In fact, he felt that after the Elbaph Temple incident last time, the system had probably already classified the World Government as a non-friendly faction. This choice mission would only further deepen this judgment.
'Hmm… Should I wait for the system again?' Kenji's heart stirred, and he brought up the system interface, silently urging.
'Damn system, stop dawdling, hurry up!'
Previously, in order to wait for the system mission, he had stubbornly only used Conqueror's Haki to fight. He had also controlled the situation so that the fight wouldn't be over before the mission's arrival, which would be a huge loss.
At this moment, in order to wait for the next mission, Kenji simply entered a semi-idle state on the spot, maintaining his current Conqueror's Haki, but only maintaining it, not making further progress.
If the system kept not giving missions later, he even planned to withdraw his Conqueror's Haki to make the situation seem more disadvantageous.
And as Kenji was urging and waiting for the system mission.
Near the island port.
Dark clouds hung low, waves stacked up, and the World Government's large battleship floated on the sea.
At this moment, on the large warship that had pulled away, a group of Marine soldiers gradually noticed that something seemed wrong. Kenji's Conqueror's Haki in the distant battlefield center, why did it look like it was being forced back?
Although very slowly, there was indeed this trend.
"Look, Kenji-san's Conqueror's Haki… isn't it receding little by little?"
"It seems, it really is… Look! The black light from that battleship is starting to emerge again."
"Ah, so you saw it too? I thought I was seeing things."
The soldiers looked at each other, not knowing what was happening, but vaguely feeling that something… might be amiss?
"Hey! Don't panic! Kenji-san himself is still on the island, and at such a distance, it will eventually consume too much over a long period."
"He should be actively retracting his Conqueror's Haki to reduce consumption. This is a very advantageous thing."
A Marine officer calmly explained.
The surrounding soldiers felt enlightened after listening. Of course, individual doubts were still unavoidable. However, it wasn't long before the doubts of these individuals expanded to most people starting to doubt.
