Devil Fruit!
Bai Ye felt his blood instantly boil.
The Mera Mera no Mi was definitely one of Bai Ye's trump cards at the moment.
How did it come about?
After drawing it from the gacha machine, it became a permanent ability by exploiting a bug, and the Mera Mera no Mi was only red quality.
The Goro Goro no Mi was directly gold quality!
As long as he ate the Goro Goro no Mi, since the Goro Goro no Mi would disappear, the gacha machine couldn't take it back, and it would become a permanent ability, the principle being the same as the Mera Mera no Mi!
Gold quality ability...
This was a gold quality ability!
It was clear that the Goro Goro no Mi was much stronger than the Mera Mera no Mi.
However...
The prestige of gold quality was a problem, or rather, the Goro Goro no Mi had a drawback.
Its weakness was self-evident, like the Mera Mera no Mi, it feared seawater and something called Sea Prism Stone.
Secondly...
Proficiency!
This was something the Mera Mera no Mi didn't have, but the Goro Goro no Mi did. It could be understood as the prestige of gold quality, or as a drawback.
But from another perspective, this represented the terror of the Goro Goro no Mi even more.
Without proficiency, relying only on one teleportation move and one lightning strike, the Goro Goro no Mi could reach gold quality, directly crushing the Mera Mera no Mi!
So, what if the proficiency was maxed out?
Thinking this way, Bai Ye felt that the Goro Goro no Mi might be more than just gold quality.
Because Bai Ye had actually seen gold quality Devil Fruits before.
In his previous life, Bai Ye had obtained a Devil Fruit called the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi, which was also a gold quality Devil Fruit.
After eating that, there was no so-called proficiency, and the ability was mastered directly, with the effect being the moves that the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi could use.
Therefore, based on Bai Ye's experience, it could be inferred!
The Goro Goro no Mi was likely...
A super quality Devil Fruit!
Just like mechs that required collecting parts to build, or supreme martial arts, Dao techniques, and sword arts formed by combining several incomplete scrolls.
It's just that for the Goro Goro no Mi to reach super quality, it requires continuous use to improve proficiency.
Before the proficiency is improved, the current Goro Goro no Mi, like the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi Bai Ye saw in his previous life, is just ordinary gold quality.
However...
The future is promising!
Thinking this way, Bai Ye became even more excited. If Kamado Tanjiro were a woman, Bai Ye would have unhesitatingly gone up and kissed her right now.
A lucky star!
This was definitely his great lucky star!
So, what was there to hesitate about?
Bai Ye picked up the Goro Goro no Mi and stuffed it into his mouth, taking a big bite, and then...
Bai Ye felt like crying, with a constipated expression.
It was so unpalatable!
The Mera Mera no Mi wasn't delicious either, it tasted like drinking a poisonous liquid, with a strange flavor, but it was bearable.
But as soon as the Goro Goro no Mi entered his mouth, Bai Ye couldn't even describe the taste. He could only say it was worse than unpalatable, so unpalatable it was indescribable.
At the same time, his mouth felt numb, as if he had eaten dozens of packets of popping candy.
Was this the characteristic of Devil Fruits?
The better the Devil Fruit, the more unpalatable it was?
Thinking this, Bai Ye actually hoped the Goro Goro no Mi was even more unpalatable.
Bai Ye thought, while enduring the urge to spit it out, he forcefully stuffed the entire Goro Goro no Mi into his mouth. The juice was too disgusting, Bai Ye chewed it a couple of times and swallowed it directly.
At that moment, Bai Ye felt a warm current rise in his stomach.
Then...
Bai Ye looked at his arm.
That arm continuously became ethereal, wrapped in arcs of electricity. As the etherealization became more apparent, the current became more intense, and the scattered arcs became denser.
Bai Ye frowned, then said to Kamado Tanjiro, "Cut me."
"Huh?"
Kamado Tanjiro let out a surprised sound, unsure.
Bai Ye said, "It's okay, just cut me, I'll be fine."
Kamado Tanjiro hesitated and said, "Then I'm coming?"
Bai Ye nodded.
Kamado Tanjiro drew his Nichirin Blade, gave Bai Ye an apologetic look, and then swung the blade at Bai Ye's arm, not his body!
The next moment, the Nichirin Blade passed directly through Bai Ye's arm.
Everyone was stunned.
Bai Ye raised his arm and looked at the spot where Kamado Tanjiro had cut him. His forearm was completely severed, but it didn't look like it was severed.
To be precise, the place that was cut had turned into electricity. There was a wound, but no blood, and flashing currents connected Bai Ye's arm.
Then...
Soon, Bai Ye's arm returned to normal, as if it had not been attacked.
"Is this what elementalization means?"
Bai Ye's eyes lit up.
He suddenly understood the meaning of "Logia" and "elementalization."
At the same time, Bai Ye also understood why the Goro Goro no Mi was gold quality, and could even improve proficiency to become a super quality ability.
This ability could actually turn his body into electricity!
Putting aside everything else, with this ability alone, the Goro Goro no Mi could reach the level of gold quality!
Physical attacks were completely invalidated, and a portion of non-physical attacks could also be immune!
Too strong!
The Mera Mera no Mi and the Goro Goro no Mi were simply not on the same level.
Of course, the two were indeed not on the same level.
Even without considering that the Goro Goro no Mi could continue to improve, one was red quality, and the other was gold quality.
Bai Ye instantly felt the urge to cry.
Metaphysics...
Could still save the unlucky!
Kamado Tanjiro looked at Bai Ye's expression, which shifted from wanting to cry to wanting to laugh, and couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Bai Ye, are you alright?"
He looked like a madman!
"I'm fine, I'm fine." Bai Ye grabbed Kamado Tanjiro's hand and said, "From now on, you are my sworn brother. If you need anything, just ask me. If anyone dares to say a word against you, even if it's one of your Nine Hashira, I'll still cut them down."
Kamado Tanjiro was startled and quickly said, "Mr. Bai Ye, you can't joke about that."
"Don't worry, don't worry, I won't cut them." Bai Ye patted Kamado Tanjiro's shoulder and said, "I was just saying. Let's go, let's continue on our way!"
Bai Ye put away the gacha machine and walked to the front, humming a tune. He felt his legs were no longer sore, his back no longer ached, and he was refreshed.
In the future, when drawing from the gacha, he must find some native inhabitants to help him draw.
Well...
Agatsuma Zenitsu, being unlucky, can be excluded.
Kamado Tanjiro and the other two looked at each other, not understanding what had suddenly happened to Bai Ye. A perfectly fine person had gone mad.
But seeing Bai Ye walking away humming a tune, the three could only quickly follow him.
Continuing their journey, Bai Ye fed the Snow Drinker Saber to the Steel Slime for consumption, and then used synthesis to combine weapons. His luck was quite good, succeeding twice. Including the Snow Drinker Saber, the weapons in the Gate of Babylon increased to 22.
At the same time, as Bai Ye finished, the three finally arrived at the neutral zone town.
