One Piece: Starting in God Valley as a Slave

Carl stood there stunned for a while. He raised his hands hesitantly and clenched his fists hard.

Not only did he not feel any powerlessness, but he felt that the dark power in his body was much stronger than before.

Looking at Carl who stood there in a daze for a long time, Garling shook his head and chuckled, stepping forward and saying,

"How do you feel? Are you satisfied with your current situation?"

Carl nodded, then shook his right hand. The sword-shaped mark on the back of his hand squirmed, and several black streams poured out along his fingers and gathered in the palm of his hand, gradually taking the shape of a sword.

The arm shook, and the originally liquid darkness suddenly solidified, and the demon sword Muramasa, shining with black light, appeared in Carl's hand.

Holding Muramasa in his hands, Carl felt the dark power in his body pouring out continuously. If it weren't for the treasures in the secret room, he would have really wanted to release it completely.

Carl probably guessed why he was not affected by seastone. He looked at the demon sword Muramasa in his hand and said,

"Uncle Garling, is it because of this sword?"

"That's right, Demon Sword Muramasa can not only enhance the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit, but it can also cover up the Devil Fruit's aura on you. You no longer have to worry about the sea or seastone in the future."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Carl's face. When he and Garling walked out of the door, he turned towards the door and released Universal Pull. Under the pull of gravity, the two seastone doors quickly closed together with a loud sound.

Garling took out the key and locked the door, then the two of them left.

Outside the palace, Lucia had dismissed all the golden-armored guards and stayed here alone to wait.

When Carl and Garling appeared from the door of the palace, Lucia's fiery eyes instantly locked onto Carl.

Carl waved to Lucia, and Lucia flashed directly to Carl, calling him "Young Master" gently.

Lucia's voice was as moving as her person. Carl gently held her hand. She flashed her big amber eyes and said with twinkling eyes,

"Young Master, I am just your slave. This is too intimate..."

Saying this, Lucia showed no sign of struggling, and even moved closer to Carl.

"Stop being a slave. You know, I have never treated you as a slave."

Carl summoned the Dark Bible and took out a long sword.

Lucia looked at the sword in Carl's hand curiously. The blade was sealed in a beautifully shaped scabbard. The blade was in the shape of a golden petal, and the bright red handle was wrapped with dark golden lines.

Even though it hadn't been taken out of the sheath, the vague edge emanating from it already showed how extraordinary this sword was. Lucia asked,

"Young Master, is this the gift that Lord Garling gave you?"

Carl shook his head and said,

"No, this is the gift I chose for you. Its name is Kōrō no Hikari."

"This, this is for me?!"

Lucia's eyes widened in surprise. After coming back to her senses, she waved her hands and said,

"Young Master, this is too precious, I really don't deserve it!"

Seeing that Lucia refused to accept it, Carl looked serious and said fiercely,

"Is it worthy or not? If not, don't follow me anymore!"

Hearing this, Lucia lost her temper. She knew that Carl was probably pretending, but she didn't want to bet on this probability.

Taking the Kōrō no Hikari from Carl very obediently, Lucia said softly,

"Thank you, Young Master."

"That's right, it's just one of the 21 Great Grade Swords, accept it with confidence."

Karl changed his face, imitating Garling. Lucia's eyes narrowed into a crescent shape, and she felt sweet in her heart.

Garling rolled his eyes obscurely, thinking that Carl took the things he gave him and pretended to give them away. This is really intolerable!

Seeing Carl still talking to Lucia, Garling glanced at Carl and said indifferently, "Carl, have you forgotten what I just said to you in there?"

Carl asked casually without turning his head, "Hmm? What did Uncle Garling mean?"

"You kid... I said I would see your strength after you got out. Now, you and Lucia, come with me to the training room!"

Garling gave the order in an unquestionable tone, then turned and left.

Carl sighed helplessly and pulled Lucia to chase after him.

It was called a training room, but when Carl arrived, he realized that this so-called training room was even larger than the training ground of the Marine School.

The walls and floors of the room were covered with dense sword marks.

After coming in, Garling said directly, "Okay, you and Lucia go fight, let me see the results of your training in the Marines. If I am not satisfied, you can practice here until I am satisfied! By the way, you are not allowed to use your Devil Fruit ability."

Without waiting for Carl to respond, Lucia said with embarrassment, "But... I don't want to attack the Young Master!"

Lucia's words could be seen as disrespectful.

Garling's face showed a trace of displeasure, and he said lightly, "You are very courageous. You dare to disobey me. What? Are you afraid of hurting Carl?"

"No, the Young Master is definitely stronger than me, I..."

"Okay, Lucia, let's go fight. Don't worry, I'm much stronger than you think."

Carl waved his hand to interrupt Lucia's words.

He had noticed that Garling was beginning to lose patience.

He had no doubt that if he hadn't been around, Garling would have killed Lucia directly.

On weekdays, Garling is completely different from how he is with Carl. After all, he is a Celestial Dragon who regards all living beings as ants.

Garling only shows his easy-going side when dealing with his own people, especially his nephew Carl. To others, he is always the head of the Figarland family, high above and indifferent to everything.

So Carl saved Lucia's life.

The two walked to the center of the training room. Lucia pulled out Kōrō no Hikari that Carl had just given her. A sharp cold light flashed across the black blade.

Carl summoned the demon sword Muramasa. He smiled at Lucia and said,

"Lucia, I heard from Uncle Garling that you are also a Devil Fruit user. Let me see your ability first."

Lucia naturally obeyed Carl's words and nodded immediately after hearing them. Then she closed her eyes. In Carl's surprised eyes, a deep purple flame suddenly burned on her body.

Then, a pair of pitch-black wings spread out from behind Lucia. The golden armor she was wearing gradually turned into the same color as the flame under the calcination of the purple flame, and circles of black patterns emerged.
