With the strongest bloodline, it’s not too much to have more children, right?

Chapter 461 Breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly

I am a green caterpillar with a leisurely personality. I plan to develop quietly and then evolve into Butterfree and head to the holy land that is engraved in my genes.

That day, I met a little brat who was determined to become the Pirate King, and I was caught.

Just when I was about to become emergency food, I evolved and turned into a hard metal pupa.

I survived, but not completely.

Although I no longer have to worry about being eaten, I have also lost my ability to move and can only be arranged at the mercy of others.

When I think of this, my life feels gloomy. It is a past that I cannot bear to look back on.

………………

"Barbecue, barbecue..."

The soft moonlight falls into the abyss, illuminating the dim space.

Next to the small lake, Luffy was lying on the ground in a big letter shape, saliva was still flowing from the corners of his mouth, and his snot bubbles were expanding and contracting. It was obvious that he was sleeping soundly.

"Dang..."

Metapod opened its eyes and was speechless when it heard Luffy's talking in his sleep.

Unable to sleep, he wanted to go to the big rock to look at the moonlight, but he was unable to move.

He wanted to break free from the shell and fly into the blue sky.

“Dang—!”

He failed, even though he had been evolving for twelve days and even though he was forced to participate in a large number of battles.

Just as he was struggling, Luffy's voice came from behind him.

"Taro, are you awake?"

Luffy rubbed his eyes and walked over to sit next to Metapod.

In his opinion, the two of them had lived together for twelve days and could be considered good friends.

"Duolang~"

"You want to get to the big rock."

For some reason, a few days ago Luffy discovered that he could actually understand what Metapod meant.

However, the careless one didn't care at all and didn't bother to study the reasons.

Although the encounter between Metapod and Luffy was full of flaws, they developed a deep friendship after spending time together.

Luffy grabbed Metapod and placed him on a large rock by the lake.

The lake water is a soft touch above the abyss. The lake surface is as still as a mirror, reflecting the brilliant stars and the lonely bright moon in the sky.

The night is quiet, and the evening breeze is a little cold.

Metapod looked calmly at its reflection on the lake.

He was thinking that one day he would not touch the moon from the lake, but fly to the moon himself.

Luffy sat on a big rock, looking at the fish that were barely visible in the lake, and began to think about tomorrow's breakfast.

"Hey, Taro, are you going to leave with me later?"

"Duolang?"

"In three days, my bastard grandfather will come to pick me up and leave here. Do you want to leave with me?

Let me tell you, the world outside is much better than here. There are lots and lots of leaves for you to eat as much as you want.

I envy you because you can fill your stomach just by eating leaves.

What do leaves taste like? Don’t you think they taste bad? I ate a few last time and they were not good for human consumption!

Metapod: “…”

Nonsense, it is meant to be eaten by insects, certainly not by humans.

No, this guy actually stole my food. I said the amount of food was wrong!

After complaining a few words in his heart, Metapod started thinking about Luffy's first question again.

Do you want to leave with him?

Although he is stupid, greedy, boring, and reckless...

But, it's fun to be with him.

After thinking for a moment, he whispered, "Duolang."

Luffy's ears moved, and he happily grabbed the Metapod with both hands.

"Really? That's great!"

Luffy's face was filled with a joyful smile, and he looked full of childlike innocence.

Metapod suddenly felt warm and squinted its eyes happily.

Suddenly, under the moonlight, Metapod's body flashed with dazzling light.

"Hey! What's wrong with you, Duolang?"

Luffy placed the Metapod on the stone and asked anxiously.

Metapod didn't answer. Fortunately, the evolution was completed quickly.

The white light dissipated, and a large butterfly with a dark purple-blue body, huge white wings with black veins on its back, four cyan legs, and a pair of huge red compound eyes appeared in the air.

"Bah!"

Butterfree circled excitedly in the air. He had evolved and could fly freely.

The moonlight fell on him, like an elf dancing.

Luffy was stunned, and after a long while he spoke in confusion.

"Who are you?"

"Bah!"

"What, you said you were Taro!"

"Bah!"

"That's not right. Duolang is green and doesn't move. How can he be a butterfly?"

Luffy felt like his head was about to explode. Looking at the big butterfly in front of him, he couldn't connect it with Metapod at all.

"Mmmmm, Mmmmm, Mmmmm..."

Knowing what kind of person Luffy is, Butterfree could only begin to tell Luffy about his experiences over the past few days, trying to make Luffy believe that he was the Metapod from before.

five minutes later.

"You really are Duolang, so amazing, how did you do it? Can you teach me?"

I don’t know what the hell! Butterfree felt a headache, but she couldn’t explain it to Luffy.

Batoid, who didn't want to discuss these topics with Luffy, tried to divert Luffy's attention.

His body flashed with light blue light, and Luffy's body suddenly began to fly uncontrollably.

"Hey! What happened? Why am I flying?"

Luffy felt his body being seized and he had no control at all.

thump!

Butterfree canceled his telekinesis ability and Luffy sat down on the ground.

"Mmmmm"

[I'm awesome, this is a new skill I've mastered!]

"Great, do you have any new skills?"

Luffy stood up and stared at Butterfree with shining eyes.

Butterfree was very pleased with Luffy's surprise and began to show off her other skills.

As he flapped his wings, countless yellow powders appeared.

Luffy couldn't help but take a breath, and suddenly felt his body numb.

"What...what is this?"

"Bah!"

"Numb... Paralyzing powder?"

Luffy took a long time to recover and his body returned to normal.

"What else? What else?"

Luffy, who had returned to normal, looked at Butterfree again with sharp eyes.

Next, Butterfree demonstrated its wind-raising and flying skills in turn, and the last shot of sleeping powder put Luffy into sleep.

He still had some sense and didn't use the poison powder skill.

Looking at Luffy who fell asleep, Butterfree slowly landed beside him and closed his eyes.

........................

The next morning, a fire had been lit by the lake, and Luffy was busy grilling fish.

Now that Butterfree has the ability to move, it no longer relies on Luffy to find leaves.

About half an hour later, the two of them had eaten and drunk their fill and lay on the ground to digest their breakfast.

Looking at the steep rock wall beside him, Luffy suddenly had an idea.
