I summon the shadow army in Pirates

Boom!

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, accompanied by lightning and thunder, which seemed to indicate that greater storms were coming.

Holding a "black umbrella" in his hand, Coles slowly came to the villa in the west of Rogge Town.

The villa looks blue and white on the outside, covers an area of ​​several hundred meters, and has a separate grass garden and pool inside, which is very spacious and luxurious.

The outermost part is surrounded by a black iron fence, and the gate is also guarded by smart guards, so the security factor is extremely high.

With the arrival of Coles, the iron outer door was opened, and the guard spoke respectfully.

"Welcome home, young master!"

Coles nodded slightly and continued walking along the smooth road.

After walking into the villa lobby, he took back his devil fruit ability.

The "black umbrella" disappeared in his hand!

In the villa, the most eye-catching thing is a white crystal lamp hanging from the top.

Directly under the crystal lamp is a ten-meter dining table covered with a red tablecloth. There are some murals and oil lamps inlaid on the walls on both sides, full of aristocratic and wealthy atmosphere.

This villa is Coles' new home.

And not so long ago.

The Coles family still only lived in the old neighborhood. The reason why they suddenly moved to a villa had to start a month ago.

Coles was born in an ordinary family.

His mother passed away at an early age, and his father worked in a brewery. The monthly salary he earned could barely sustain a normal life for a family of three.

The winery was on holiday that day, and my father thought about digging a cellar at home to store items.

So, his father took Coles to dig together at home, but after digging a few meters, he suddenly discovered a treasure chest buried underground for a hundred years.

The treasure chest is very old.

As his father opened the box, he was surprised to find that inside was a huge treasure left behind by their ancestor, Count Charol.

In an instant, the Coles family changed from an ordinary family to a wealthy family, which is why they now live in a villa.

However, the biggest wealth in the treasure box is not the gold and gems, but the "Devil Fruit" contained in another small box.

Coles as a time traveler.

Ever since he was born into the world of pirates, he has been preparing to become a strong man, and he has already read the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book well.

Therefore, the first time he saw the Devil Fruit, Coles instantly recognized that it was an extremely rare superhuman Devil Fruit:

"Shadow Fruit"!

Coles didn't hesitate at all and swallowed the extremely unpleasant "shadow fruit" directly.

After that, he naturally gained the power to control shadows.

The black umbrella that materialized just now was the manifestation of his ability to control the Shadow Fruit.

As an extremely rare superhuman devil fruit, the power possessed by the Shadow Fruit is not simply to control shadows. Its greatest special feature is the ability to communicate and use the power of the dead.

Coles now has a special ability:

"Summon the Shadow"!

This ability allows him to summon the shadows left behind after the death of creatures and transform them into "shadow soldiers" loyal to him.

The summoned shadow soldiers will also retain the original abilities of the creatures, and can engage in substantial battles with people, which is very powerful.

This ability is very similar to the skill of the Shadow King in the Korean comic "I Level Up Alone" that Coles watched in his previous life.

Therefore, Coles also set up a password that was a bit embarrassing at first, but was explosive when heard later.

"stand up!"

Under the light of the crystal lamp, Coles's shadow began to change, and a unique black shadow appeared directly from it!

"Go and see if dinner is ready. I'm a little hungry." Coles ordered the summoned shadow soldier.

The black figure didn't answer, but turned and walked towards the kitchen.

To this.

Coles could only express his helplessness.

This shadow soldier was summoned by him from a dead homeless man. He would only act according to the orders given by the summoner and was very low-level.

If you want to have high-level shadow soldiers, you can only hope to encounter the corpses of those powerful creatures in the future.

…

Ten minutes later, dinner begins.

On the rectangular dining table, there are various delicious foods such as lamb chops, prawns, barbecued meats, and stewed soups.

Sitting on the main seat was Coles' father, Charlotte Ronald, who was wearing a dark blue tuxedo with a bow tie at the collar, and he was full of energy.

Coles was sitting on the left side of the dining table, and sitting opposite him was a blond girl about twelve years old. That was his sister, Charlotte Versia.

Versia was wearing a white dress and had fair skin. She inherited her mother's beautiful face and looked a bit like a noble princess.

"Well, let's eat."

Seeing that everything was ready, Ronald said.

However, he couldn't help but reach out and fiddle with the tight tie. It was obvious that he was still a little uncomfortable with the leap from civilian to billionaire.

When Coles saw that his sister only ate a half-meter-long steak, he was a little confused and asked: "Why, you don't have the appetite to eat so little today?"

Velcia answered, picked up the knife and fork, and began to eat the huge steak on the plate.

"My brother is going to be a recruit at the naval base tomorrow. I feel a little sad when I think about not seeing my brother for a long time... Hmm."

In the world of pirates.

Some special people have a huge appetite, and even a few cows can't fill them up. Coles's sister, Vilshia, is in this situation.

This is also why, as a senior employee of the winery, his father Ronald's salary was only enough to maintain a normal life for a family of three.

Coles comforted: "It takes three months for recruits to train. After becoming a formal navy, I can have time to come back."

"Three months, so long!"

Vilshia was still a little disappointed, but because she was eating steak, her white face bulged, which made her look cute.

"Don't worry, three months will pass quickly. Then your brother will take you to the famous sea restaurant Barati in the East China Sea to eat the most expensive and delicious food there, how about it!"

"Really?"

"Of course, how could your brother lie to your sister!"

"Great!"

...

After dinner.

Coles returned to his room.

Pushing open the door, it was pitch black inside, and he skillfully reached out to turn on the switch on the wall.

Da!

A crisp sound rang out.

The room also lit up with bright light.

This is the mainstream gas lamp in Rogue Town today. It is said to be invented by a designer on the Grand Line. Although the light is not as bright as the electric lamp in the previous life, it is not much inferior.

The technology tree of the pirate world is very distorted due to the environment and various factors of each island.

Some islands are still in the most backward primitive era, while some islands have developed civilization and even some special advanced technologies...

This is not uncommon.

The furnishings in Coles' room are very simple. Opposite the bed is a black desk, and on the right is a huge wardrobe with a dressing mirror.

In addition, there are only some idle items.

After entering the room, Coles took off his shirt and started to exercise.

Through the huge dressing mirror, you can clearly see his obvious muscle lines.

This is the result of his persistence in exercise since he was twelve years old.

Coles' current physical fitness is far beyond that of ordinary people, and he can reach the level of tearing tigers and leopards alive. As for what level he can reach with the shadow fruit...

He is not very clear, after all, he has not really fought with the strong.

The reason why he chose to join the navy.

It's not because Coles is so righteous.

It's just because it's safer to become stronger as a navy than as a pirate.

In this era of great pirates, the order is in chaos. If you want to protect your close family, you have to keep getting stronger.

However, since he has traveled to the pirate world and eaten the superhuman "shadow fruit".

Then, he, Charlotte Coles, will try to climb to the top of the pirate world and see what the scenery is like!
