The nearby giant mine rats immediately became excited, as they squeaked and rushed towards Duan Gujin's position.
But once those giant mine rats neared Duan Gujin, they did not come any closer; they were deterred by a powerful force in front of them.
That powerful deterrent force made them feel their hair stand on end deep in their hearts, and they did not dare to approach.
At this moment, Duan Gujin was in a mysterious state; he had absorbed the Divine Power from the Treasure Pearl Demon Fruit, and his Body and Divine Soul were undergoing astonishing changes.
The smoke now releasing from his body is a sign that he was Refining the Treasure Pearl Demon Fruit, unbeknownst to him, triggering the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul.
It was indeed the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul, emitting a strong aura that had subdued those nearby giant mine rats that wanted to rush over.
