Of course, Halse’s behavior naturally caused dissatisfaction among others. After all, while they were suffering, he was living comfortably. How could anyone be okay with that?
Their discomfort only increased naturally.
These people’s morals weren’t that high either. They would charge mindlessly at stronger pirates and then get defeated like idiots.
Moreover, the Marines weren’t like soldiers from Flower Country.
While the Marines did protect civilians, they didn’t have the same sense of honor and responsibility as Flower Country’s soldiers. They focused more on fighting pirates and the Revolutionary Army.
Halse naturally received strange looks, both male and female, filled with varying degrees of malice.
Then, Halse felt a particularly intense gaze.
Looking over, he saw it was Vice Admiral Doberman.
Halse was just about to beat up whoever was staring at him like that, but then he saw it was Doberman and decided against it. He couldn’t win anyway.
Besides, Doberman didn’t seem to have any ill intent.
Indeed, Doberman’s gaze wasn’t malicious. He was just excited and honored to witness the rise of someone with the potential to become an admiral.
“Negative emotions from a Marine +3,000”
“Negative emotions from a Marine +4,000”
“Negative emotions from a Marine +5,000”
“Negative emotions from a Marine +6,000”
“Negative emotions from a Marine +7,000”
This batch of Marines isn’t bad~
Halse felt others’ pain and his own pleasure.
These Marines were very jealous, wondering why this brat always got Doberman’s attention and why he wasn’t dirty. There had to be something behind it.
Halse looked at those glaring at him. Doberman also noticed something was wrong and was about to speak when he saw Halse wink at everyone, blow a kiss, and strut away sassily.
What the hell.
Why hurt my eyes like this? I’m just an 18/19/20/21/22-year-old kid. Why do this to me?
“Negative emotions from a Marine +4,000”
“Negative emotions from a Marine +5,000”
“Negative emotions from a Marine +6,000”
“Negative emotions from a Marine +7,000”
“Negative emotions from a Marine +8,000”
At the same time, Halse released dark magic.
Dark Magic: Vomit, Headache, Dizziness, Diarrhea, Weak Legs, Fatigue, Weakness.
Unfortunately, these were only level-one spells. If they were level two, their power would be much greater.
Some dark curse spells targeted the soul, while others targeted the body.
Body curses depended on one’s physical strength to withstand them, while soul curses required detection and evasion by those with strong souls, like Big Mom, Brook, or Perona. They also had some resistance.
Curse spells were invisible.
Only those with strong souls could detect them.
Of course, Halse didn’t use them on innocent people, though it wouldn’t have mattered much.
Doberman’s physical strength was so high that it wouldn’t affect him much, at most causing slight discomfort.
Then. . . . . . . . .
A group of people rushed to the toilet, their legs weak. Those with low Doriki were left behind. The limited number of toilets quickly filled, but there were still many people left.
So. . . . . .
The area around the toilets reeked.
The sudden need to relieve themselves added to the foul smell inside the toilets.
Halse had released not only a diarrhea spell but also a vomiting spell.
Some people vomited.
Smelling the stench made them vomit more.
Seeing others vomit made them vomit too.
Running too much caused some to vomit.
Some managed to hold it in but were startled by knocks on the door, causing them to vomit.
Halse felt the negative emotions rushing towards him.
He thought that he could weaken opponents with curse spells and buff himself before fighting, increasing his advantage.
His mana was sufficient anyway.
Even without fighting, he could release curse spells to disgust others.
“Negative emotions from a Marine +7,000”
“Negative emotions from a Marine +8,000”
“Negative emotions from Vice Admiral Doberman +60,000”
. . . . . .
Oh, Vice Admiral Doberman was also a bit angry.
But maybe he was just disgusted.
Halse’s single-occupancy dorm on the ship ensured he didn’t have to worry about roommates bringing back the stench or strange things in their pants.
Negative emotions continued to flood towards Halse. Everyone thought he was too disgusting and blamed him, though it was indeed his fault for using magic. Without Observation Haki, it was hard to avoid.
Curse spells hit the target directly and could track them. The only way to avoid them was having a special body to block curses or seeing and dodging them. One needed to run fast enough to dodge, like using the Glint-Glint Fruit, Rumble-Rumble Fruit, or Door-Door Fruit to escape the curse’s effect.
One could escape to another dimension or outrun the curse with these fruits.
If I run fast enough, the curse won’t catch me.
Halse sat in his room meditating. Soon, he wouldn’t bleed during body training.
Yes, very good.
He drank a few bottles of Power Elixir to calm down.
To be fair, the Power Elixir wasn’t a scam; it gave ten times the effect for the price. The same went for the Mental Elixir.
Halse continued to improve himself, doing push-ups while meditating, striving to get a bit stronger.
Meanwhile, the new Marines struggled with their vomit and excrement.
Halse kept using Wind Purification to keep things clean.
Happiness is built on others’ pain.
Feel the pain, embrace the pain, understand the pain.
I won’t accept the pain.
