Yellow light flashed rapidly within the bar. Each time the light stopped, it invariably meant someone would be kicked flying, breaking several bones.

Because the yellow light moved extremely fast, the remaining thugs were sent flying in different directions almost simultaneously, crashing into walls or overturning tables, spitting blood, and wailing loudly.

"How does it feel to be kicked and punched? Is it pleasant?" Ye Jia stopped, beads of sweat on his face, his breathing heavy. It was evident that these simple movements had significantly drained his stamina, for someone who had just consumed a Devil Fruit.

"Weren't you all so arrogant just now, wanting to kill me? You bunch of trash!" Ye Jia cursed mercilessly, "Scum, dog shit! You dare to act tyrannically in Foosha Village, thinking no one can deal with you,

huh? Today, I'll let you experience what it's like to be bullied!" Saying that, Ye Jia directly grabbed a thug who was repeatedly spitting blood, dizzy, and unable to exert any strength, and furiously punched him!

After about a dozen punches.

"Congratulations! You've obtained one 'Stamina Pill' fragment!"

Hearing the familiar sweet, robotic female voice, Ye Jia finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had just kicked seven or eight times in a row, yet he hadn't received a single fragment. This had made Ye Jia's heart clench, but now, upon hearing the prompt, he could finally relax.

"Do I have to use punches to get fragments?" Ye Jia wondered. "Or has my chance of getting fragments decreased now?" To confirm his suspicion, Ye Jia kicked many more times, beating the thug until he was on his last breath, barely alive, basically beyond saving.

"Congratulations! You've obtained one 'Stamina Pill' fragment!"

The voice came, and Ye Jia's suspicion was confirmed—he didn't have to use punches, but his chance of dropping fragments had decreased! Not only that, but beating these thugs no longer dropped Devil Fruit fragments; only Stamina Pill fragments could be obtained.

"Since that's the case, I'm too lazy to waste time on them." Ye Jia had originally wanted to use these punching bags to practice his punches and perhaps get some Devil Fruit fragments. After all, if he wanted to synthesize another Devil Fruit now, he would need 100 fragments.

Dropping fragments was a matter of chance. To gather 100 fragments, he would have to attack at least a thousand times! If he didn't have a constant supply of punching bags, where would he get so many fragments?

"Stamina Pill synthesis only requires 30 fragments; that's much cheaper." The function of a Stamina Pill was simple. Didn't activating Devil Fruit abilities consume stamina? One Stamina Pill ingested, and stamina instantly recovered! It could be said that Stamina Pills were a rare commodity for Ye Jia at the moment.

"And you all, let every single one of you experience what despair feels like!" Ye Jia grabbed these thugs and just started punching them. Even if he beat them bloody, their faces looking like a dye shop, he showed no intention of stopping.

If Makino weren't a woman, with a kind heart, unwilling to see them lose their lives, constantly dissuading Ye Jia, Ye Jia would definitely not have let these thugs off. He would have beaten them until even their mothers wouldn't recognize them!

"Get lost! I've broken all your bones. You won't be able to act tyrannically again!" Like throwing garbage, Ye Jia directly threw these thugs out of the bar. Several of their bones were violently broken by Ye Jia, the pain tearing through them.

Their screams could be heard almost throughout Foosha Village. And the villagers, who had initially thought the thugs would hurt and kill again, were so horrified that they couldn't speak when they saw these guys in such a miserable state, making pig-like screams.

"Weren't they just ganging up on Little Jia at the bar? How did they end up like this in the blink of an eye?"

"I caught a glimpse earlier.

Little Jia suddenly became incredibly powerful, as if he became an ability user, and knocked all these thugs down!"

"A Devil Fruit user?! My goodness, no wonder these guys were taught such a brutal lesson.

So they ran into an ability user... serves them right! They've been bullying the villagers for more than a day or two. Today, someone finally came to deal with them. It's truly gratifying!"

"Look, Scooper is rushing up!"

"Scooper's father was beaten to death by these thugs. Before, for his family, he dared not seek revenge. Now these thugs have no power to fight back, so how could he not avenge his father?"

Revenge for grudges, retribution for grievances.

The thugs had lorded over Foosha Village for so long, they had already enraged many villagers. Now that they were in distress, the villagers immediately seized the opportunity to rush forward and avenge their loved ones who had died at the thugs' hands. More and more villagers surged forward to attack; even if they didn't act, they'd spit twice. The fate of these thugs was easily imaginable.

...

"Little Jia, are you alright?" Makino looked at Ye Jia worriedly. She had just seen those people beat Ye Jia until he spat blood.

"Makino, don't worry, I'm fine!" Ye Jia patted his chest, "See, how sturdy!"

"It's good that you're fine, but... they said you became an ability user. Did you really eat a Devil Fruit?" Makino knew about Devil Fruits and understood the consequences of eating one.

"That's right, Makino. To be honest with you, I ate the Sparkle-Sparkle Fruit." Ye Jia smiled, "The Sparkle-Sparkle Fruit is a Logia-type fruit. You know about Logia-type fruits, right? Against these guys, they're no match for me!"

"Logia-type fruit! I heard Shanks mention it. They say it's the strongest among Devil Fruits!" Makino evidently didn't know that Admiral Kizaru possessed the Sparkle-Sparkle Fruit. After all, being in such a remote village, it was already impressive to know about Devil Fruits.

"Shanks... Red-Hair..." The name made Ye Jia's blood boil. If it were before, he would only feel envy and jealousy towards Shanks, because he could never hope to catch up to him even a fraction in his entire life.

But now, it was different. With the ability to infinitely load Devil Fruits, given enough time to train, his strength would become terrifying... certainly not inferior to Red-Haired Shanks!

"Shanks will become my goal... And the Pirate King, I won't compete with Luffy for it. If I'm going to be a king, I'll be the king of this world, the true king of the world!" Ye Jia declared grandly, his chest filled with ambition.

"Makino, I've decided. I want to set sail, follow in Luffy's footsteps. I want to enter the Grand Line, charge towards the New World!" Ye Jia said.

"I knew it, all of you want to become pirates and search for the Great Treasure," Makino said helplessly.

"Before that, I need to train my strength... Makino, I might not be able to visit you often in the future, but I'll still bring back wild boars. And now that I have strength, maybe I can even catch more powerful beasts!"
