222 Riser is too strong, right?

Shalba and Creuserey aside, Riser had always considered Euclid and Rizevim important antagonists in this world. With all of the rewards he gained, he wouldn't be surprised if Rivezim was the last boss in the story. 

[Congratulations, you have received five random rewards.]

Nevertheless, there was no hesitation about him, and he just opened all of the rewards directly. 

[Congratulations, you have received the "Wapu Wapu no Mi (Complete Version)," "Villain," "Falsifier," "Kote Kote no Mi (Complete Version)," and "Degenerate."]

'As expected...' 

When Riser had directly conquered the villain organization and made them work under his bidding, he knew the rewards he would receive would turn over his understanding of how amazing the existence of the system was. 

[Right?]

"...." 

In the beginning, their relationship was far from good, especially when the system kept forcing him to do something inexplicable, but the longer they were together, the more he understood how necessary the system was, especially in a world where he could die anytime. 

Even though it was said that his rewards would be random, he knew that these rewards would be amazing, especially when his feats were something that no one would expect. 

Still, it was amazing that he got five rewards directly, especially when he only got one reward when he killed Katerea Leviathan. 

Perverseness. 

It was an ability to move the target in the opposite manner to their will. For example, if they want to turn their head right, they will turn it left, or if they want to lift something, they will drop it instead.

Frankly, with the "Ruler," it was possible for him to do this since, like how he could inverse all the attacks into an energy in his body. With a little training, he could also inverse the senses of his opponents. Yet, it had an even stronger effect, such as when one thought of others as a friend, one would think of others as an enemy once they were afflicted by this ability. If one wanted to heal, they would kill instead. 

With "Ruler" alone, he was already the strongest. 

However, if he could get more power, then why not, right?

Nevertheless, he ate the "Wapu Wapu no Mi (Complete Version)," which gave him the ability to teleport. Moreover, as long as it was all related to teleportation, he could develop those techniques. Frankly, this ability was an enhanced version of "Trick Star," and due to this, he was happy. 

That was his first reward; what about his second reward?

Villain. 

When he saw the name of this reward, he felt conflicted, especially when the effect of this ability was to give the user the aura of a conqueror, with their actions being interpreted by others to paint them in a dominant light. It could be said that users of this skill are natural-born leaders perfectly suited to rule over others.

'...it seems that I really have to conquer the world?' 

Once again, Riser felt that his dream was so far away that he might not be able to reach it. 

Whether it was his first or second reward, they were all amazing, but what about his third reward? 

Falsifier. 

It allows the user to deceive the senses of other people around them, creating a false reality where only they know the truth. For example, a spear in the user's hands may appear as a knife to their opponent, or they can make a knife appear out of thin air when one's hands appear to be empty. The user may even use it to pretend to be dead, enabling surprise counterattacks or to make a quick escape. It also makes the user especially sensitive to the illusions of others, outright making them immune to most.

Did he love this ability? Naturally. 

After accepting this reward, Riser felt relief as there was no need for him to become a close combat fighter anymore. However, at least for now, he had to become a close combat fighter, especially when there was something that he needed to achieve. 

"The next one." 

It was another Devil Fruit, but this Devil Fruit...

"What kind of Devil Fruit is this?

However, Riser didn't hesitate to eat it as there was no point in milling, and gaining more power would definitely bring him a benefit instead of a disadvantage. 

As expected, after eating this Devil Fruit, he understood what his newfound power was. 

Kote Kote no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to summon gauntlets with which they can grab and manipulate any non-living thing.

It might be hard to just read the description, so he tried this power by summoning two gauntlets. 

"It seems I can only summon two gauntlets." 

He could change the size of the gauntlets to become bigger or smaller, then manipulate them remotely. Still, there was something that he wanted to try. He manipulated the gauntlets once again and grabbed the air. 

"Wow..." 

By grabbing the air, he could manipulate the air, which was grabbed by the gauntlets. 

With this example, whatever was grabbed by his gauntlets, as long as they were non-living beings, he could control them. 

When this idea suddenly appeared, his breathing became heavy as he thought of a certain possibility. 

"Calm down." 

Riser looked at his last reward. 

Degenerate. 

With the name of the ability being so abominable, Riser thought that it should be something linked to those strange things, but that didn't seem to be the case. 

Degenerate has two effects: 

Synthesis: Transform two differing targets into a single object and can be used to chain the effects of several skills together, earning the user new skills with significantly less effort than would otherwise be required.

Separation: Releases properties inherent to the target and separates them. Examples include but are not limited to depriving a person of skills and removing foreign objects—such as entities attempting possession or toxins, from the target body.

"....." 

Riser fell in silence again. 

Wasn't this ability too amazing?

In other words, it should be possible for him to take over Rizevim's Sacred Gear Canceller ability, right?

There was no need for hesitation. 

Rizevim was his tool, after all, and with how weak Rizevim was, Riser was afraid that Rizevim might die, so it might be too late for him to take over Rizevim's ability. 

With that determination, Riser used his "Area of Invisibility" and teleported back to the headquarters of the Old Satan Faction, then went to search Rizevim with his "Location." Unlike before, he found himself sleeping in the room, and he approached without hesitation. 

Riser used his "Degrenate," separating the "Sacred Gear Canceller" ability from Rizevim's body, but suddenly, the gauntlets from the "Kote Kote no Mi" appeared and absorbed this ability. 

"....." 

While Riser was speechless, he sighed in relief when he could separate the "Sacred Gear Canceller" with his gauntlets with "Degenerate," but then again, he didn't overthink whether this ability was combined with his body or his gauntlets; it was all the same.

After all, to use this "Sacred Gear Canceller," one needed to touch the target before this ability could affect the target. 

Having this ability on his gauntlets was moving conveniently as he could use this ability remotely. 

However, with this, Riser had confirmed that he could take other abilities too. 

"Moreover, there is also that." 

Riser realized how overpowered his existence had become. 

So, after this, what would he need to do?

Should he go back?

Should he take over all the unique skills of powerful beings?

No, there was one thing that he needed to do. 

"Vali, get me all the information of all the leaders of the Khaos Brigade. When you have collected all of them, wait for me in Japan. I will let you know the location later.

"You should be ready in 12 hours." 

There was no need for any more words. 

As for whether Vali could do it or not, Vali had to do it. 

Nevertheless, there was something that Riser wished to try. 

Using "Location," Riser went to his target. 

As for Rizevim?

Rizevim was sleeping well as he dreamed of causing destruction and mayhem in another world.
