Dimensional Chat Group: Speed-o'-Light

[Haibara Ai: Another self-introduction… How tedious. Can't we just skip such boring formalities? Haibara Ai, just an ordinary researcher.]

[Random Guy Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Is this the new trendy way of introducing oneself? I'm Stray, just an ordinary transmigrator!]

[Haibara Ai: Heh, a guy who doesn't even dare reveal his real name…]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Dammit! My nickname really is Stray! Surnamed Lu, given name Ren—what's wrong with that!]

[Fubuki: Hmph, just as I thought—nothing but a bunch of weaklings… Listen closely! I am Hellish Blizzard, ruler of the B-Class heroes and leader of the Blizzard Group!]

[Kizaru: Oh? A new member in the chat? Welcome, welcome~]

[Random Guy Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Kizaru-sama has arrived! Welcome, boss~ throws confetti]

[Kizaru: Keep it low-key, keep it low-key. So, we have a newcomer, huh?]

[Haibara Ai: B-Class hero? So there's an A-Class above that, right? And don't tell me there's something even higher than A-Class.]

[Random Guy Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Above B-Class is A-Class, and above that is S-Class. S-Class is the highest… at least, according to the Hero Association.]

[Haibara Ai: Oh, so you're just the queen of the weaklings.]

[Fubuki: How rude! If you were standing before me, I'd let you taste the power of my Hellstorm!]

[Haibara Ai: Sounds impressive. @Random Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg, how strong is she really?]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Hellish Blizzard, huh? Well, she's definitely stronger than the two of us. As for Master Zhang, it depends on which version of him we're talking about, but the rest of the big shots could probably beat her with one hand tied behind their backs.]

[Kobayashi: Objection! I can't beat her!]

[Random Guy Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Kobayashi, you're being too humble. All you need to do is unleash Tohru and let her handle it…]

Back in the One Punch Man world, Fubuki's face suddenly turned icy during a team meeting!

The members of the Blizzard Group shivered, terrified. They had no idea why their leader was so angry.

Did she accidentally buy cheap, low-quality products while shopping yesterday?

[Orochimaru: Oh? Another newcomer has joined.]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Orochimaru-sama has appeared too! The One Punch Man world has all kinds of strange and interesting things—you'd probably love it.]

Seeing Orochimaru appear, Kizaru raised an eyebrow slightly and gestured to the maid waiting by the balcony entrance.

Since reuniting yesterday, Hancock had been clinging to him, and he still hadn't found an opportunity to pass the Devil Fruit on to Orochimaru.

If it weren't for Orochimaru's appearance now, Kizaru would have almost forgotten that he still owed him a favor.

Soon, under Kizaru's instructions, the maid arrived with two boxes containing Devil Fruits.

"Let me think about how this works…"

After sending the maid to the side, Kizaru started fiddling with the dimensional chat group's trade function.

In no time, he re-opened the virtual trading platform and sent the two Devil Fruits to Orochimaru. Once that was done, he returned to the chat group.

In just a short time, the chat logs had already filled several pages—clearly, the newcomer, Hellish Blizzard, was quite active.

[Kizaru: @Orochimaru The Devil Fruits have been delivered~]

[Orochimaru: So this is a Devil Fruit… just eating it grants power comparable to bloodline limits. Fascinating indeed...]

[Kizaru: Remember, normally a person can't eat two Devil Fruits… or rather, I should say that usually one can't eat two. There are exceptions.]

[Random Guy Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: @Kizaru Kizaru-sama, do you still have spare Devil Fruits on hand?]

[Kizaru: Hm? I should still have some. Why? Are you interested in Devil Fruits too?]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: I don't have a choice… It's too hard for someone talentless to get stronger. No special abilities, no cheat-like powers—I don't even dare to split my focus learning ninjutsu. If I want to improve in the short term, I can only rely on a Devil Fruit...]

In the Swallowed Star world, Stray sighed as he complained. When he first transmigrated, he had fantasized about becoming the protagonist.

But lacking talent and any cheats, he had spent over a decade of bitter training just to reach the level of an Intermediate Martial Artist at the school there.

Without strength, even trying to latch onto someone powerful was impossible, and he wasn't even in the same base city as Luo Feng. He couldn't find a way to pledge himself to someone, even if he tried.

Over the years, he had accepted his fate. Even after joining the dimensional chat group, he didn't believe he had the makings of a protagonist.

[Kizaru: I'll ask around later. There should be something. Do you want a Zoan-type or a Paramecia-type? If you want a Logia-type, though, you might have to wait a long time—or it might never even show up.]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Zoan-type is fine, preferably something powerful… But I don't have anything valuable to trade for it right now. Could you hold onto one for me, boss?]

[Kizaru: Otherwise, it'll just sit in storage. I'll find a Devil Fruit for you later. In exchange… just let me visit your world three times.]

Seeing Stray Dog complain in the chat group, Kizaru could relate somewhat.

Although his situation was far better, over the years, he had gradually turned into a complete slacker.

Considering they were both transmigrators, Kizaru didn't mind helping him out a little. Besides, the Swallowed Star world was overflowing with opportunities—trading a Devil Fruit for that was a bargain no matter how you looked at it.

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Deal! Kizaru-sama, just let me know whenever you want to come over. I'm ready anytime!]

[Kobayashi: Ah, I'm so jealous! Kizaru-san gets to visit another world again. I want to go see other worlds too...]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Kobayashi, you're welcome to come here if you'd like. I live alone anyway. Just don't cause too much trouble.]

[Kobayashi: Really? Can I bring Tohru with me?]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Uh… I don't mind, as long as Tohru doesn't go berserk. But she's not in our group, right? So she probably wouldn't be able to travel with you.]

[Kobayashi: Ah, then forget it… Your world seems dangerous anyway. I'm just an ordinary office worker, so I'd better play it safe.]

[Haibara Ai: Kobayashi, if you want to visit another world, you can come to mine. The place I'm staying now is very spacious—you can live with me.]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Kobayashi, don't go! That sly, sharp-tongued girl's world is super dangerous!]

[Haibara Ai: Stop talking nonsense. My world isn't dangerous at all!]

[Hellish Blizzard: Hold on! What do you mean by "visiting other worlds"?]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: @Haibara Ai Here's a joke: "Detective Conan's world isn't dangerous!"]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: @Hellish Blizzard It's exactly what it sounds like. If someone from another world invites you, you can go to their world.]

[Kizaru: Hmm… I can confirm that. But before visiting other worlds, I'd suggest first understanding their general situation and level of danger… My place is always open if you can bring something that interests me.]

[Stray Dog Trying to Hug Luo Feng's Leg: Kizaru-sama previously visited Jotaro's world and even helped him defeat DIO… Oh, DIO is the main villain in Jotaro's world. Kizaru-sama is ridiculously strong!]
