The World Begins to Stir / King of Knights
"Elemental Transformation!"
Robin, who witnessed this scene, exclaimed in surprise.
However, compared to Robin's reaction, Arthur frowned slightly, and unconsciously reached out and applied Armament Haki (B) to grab Nami's hand.
The result was quite surprising: Arthur's hand, imbued with Armament Haki (B), passed right through Nami without touching her.
"Hehe... How about that? Isn't it amazing?" Nami tilted her head and said with a smile.
"Spatial abilities?" Arthur asked, his face unable to hide the anticipation.
"Amazing! You guessed right!" Nami's cherry lips parted slightly as she looked at Arthur in surprise, then she said with delight, "But it's not entirely correct! To be precise, my ability is— Paramecia Space- Space-Space Fruit — Alternate Space Form!"
"Space-Space Fruit? What kind of fruit is that?!" Even Robin, with her amazing knowledge, couldn't help but be puzzled after hearing Nami's words.
"This deal was incredibly profitable!" Arthur murmured with a smile.
Time reigns supreme, space is king!
These are the two supreme laws!
Whether the Time-Time Fruit and the Space-Space Fruit exist is a mystery between the two worlds. They may exist, they may not exist, or there may only be Devil Fruits that contain the power of time and space.
However, it cannot be denied that Devil Fruits possessing both time and space abilities are not to be underestimated.
For example, the Age-Age Fruit of one of the Supernovas, Jewelry Bonney, and the Slow-Slow Fruit of Foxy the Silver Fox, both contain the power of time.
The spatial abilities are found in CP9 'Blueno's Door-Door Fruit and the ultimate fruit, the Op-Op Fruit, belonging to one of the Supernovas, the' Surgeon of Death's Trafalgar Law. This fruit not only contains spatial abilities but also allows for the 'Perennial Youth Operation,' which defies the power of time.
Nami's Devil Fruit ability, however, indirectly revealed this to Arthur.

Nami's Elemental Transformation so powerful that even Armament Haki cannot touch her; she merges herself into another dimension, which is Elemental Transformation that surpasses even Logia.
This ability reminded Arthur of Obito Uchiha's Kamui from the Hokage world.
Chapter 125 The World Begins to Shock (Second Update)
"Besides this, do you have any other abilities?" Arthur asked Nami daze.
"Yes, yes... and there's an incredibly powerful ability!" As she said this, Nami's eyes gleamed with golden light, and she even couldn't help but drool from the corner of her mouth.
From that golden light, Arthur and Robin only saw greed, revealing Xiao Xuanhua's scheming nature.
Whoosh--
Seeing Nami's greedy appearance, Arthur instinctively delivered a chop to her neck.
However, Nami was still in a Hollowfied state, and her hand strike missed completely.
"Hehe... You can't hit me now, can you?" Nami's eyes lit up again; she was extremely satisfied with this ability.
"If you don't tell me, I'll throw all these Beli away," Arthur threatened, rolling his eyes in annoyance.
"Okay, okay, I surrender!" Nami was indeed hit where it hurt, and quickly raised her hands, saying seriously, "After eating that fruit, I gained a different dimension. Not only can I hide inside and ignore other people's attacks, but I can also store things... and if I want, I can also make the people and things I touch become like just now, seemingly in reality, but actually their true forms have merged into my space."
"The only downside is that in that state, we can't use 457 to attack." Despite saying this, Nami showed no sign of frustration; instead, she was filled with joy.
Nami had already come up with several ways to use this ability in her mind.
Is it to steal openly and honestly?
Or should we keep a low profile and secretly loot everything?
Before eating the fruit, Nami was initially disappointed that she would no longer be able to swim.
But now, that thought has completely disappeared; instead, I'm filled with relief.
What an incredibly powerful ability!
Just like the Clear-Clear Fruit that Sanji dreamed of obtaining, this ability is exactly what Nami longs for.
If I had had that ability back then, I wouldn't have needed to go through so much trouble to steal, nor would I have needed to worry about whether I could take all the large quantities with me.
This is simply a godlike ability!
"Ahhh... I love you to death, Arthur!" Thinking of this, Nami couldn't help but pounce on Arthur, showering him with kisses on the face to release her excitement.
"What's wrong with you all of a sudden?" Arthur was startled by Nami's reaction and reached out to block Nami cherry lips that kept coming closer like a pecking bird.
"Oh dear... I can't blame Nami for being so excited. After all, this ability is, in some ways, an unsolvable power that even Thief B wouldn't dare to dream of." Robin rested her right cheek on her hand and smiled gently.
After learning about Nami's abilities, Robin naturally understood what Nami was thinking.
At the same time, he was deeply shocked by Nami's abilities.
Robin thought further and in more detail than Nami.
That despairing illusion isn't singular, but rather collective; doesn't that mean...?
As long as Nami is by their side, they are practically invincible.
Arthur's eyes also gleamed with a strange light. With Nami possessing this ability, he could say that he had almost no worries about the future.
Paramecia -type Space-Space Fruit - Alternate Space Form. With this branching ability of the Space-Space Fruit, Nami can be described as a walking, talking space warehouse.
More importantly, since this is an illusion that transcends Logia Elemental Transformation and is a collective illusion, he no longer needs to worry about Nami and Robin's safety.
Of course, such powerful abilities must also have corresponding drawbacks.
First, there's the passive aspect! Most Devil Fruit Users are unable to perceive their abilities immediately after consuming Devil Fruit, and even if they do perceive them, the abilities are very weak, requiring a long period of training.
However, there are a small number of people who can use the power of Devil Fruit immediately after eating it.
For example, Luffy and Law's Paramecia, CP9's Kaku and Kalifa's Zoan and Paramecia, Sabo's Logia Fruit in the original work, and Blackbeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit which unleashed its maximum power in one go.
Nami is clearly one of the few, probably because her abilities are too pure and singular.
Judging from Nami's appearance, she doesn't seem to have any offensive capabilities, or rather, she hasn't been able to develop them yet.
If one could achieve the kind of space-distorting ability that Obito Uchiha Kamui, it might not only be a passively powerful ability, but also an active one that shouldn't be underestimated.
Besides, Nami also has people whose attributes are countered by hers.
Unless she possesses an independent alternate dimension, Nami's ability has a fatal weakness.
That is CP9's Blueno's Paramecia Door-Door Fruit.
After seeing Nami's abilities, Arthur believed that the Door-Door Fruit should also be one of the branch abilities of the Space-Space Fruit.
If Nami's alternate dimension is also like the green alternate dimension created by Blueno, then the Door-Door Fruit would be Nami's absolute nemesis.
"Nami, take Robin and me inside to see your alternate dimension." With that thought, Arthur immediately said to Nami.
"Mmm..." Nami, who loves to show off her new toys, naturally nodded repeatedly and reached out to take Arthur and Robin's hands.
The next moment, the three figures vanished from the villa like bubbles.
Just as Arthur and his companions entered the alternate dimension, on an island in the New World teeming with News Coo, they began to feed en masse, preparing for the endless busyness that lay ahead.
At dawn, an astonishing number of News Coo, each carrying a mail carrier filled with rolls of freshly printed newspapers, flew off to all corners of the world, as always.
The newspapers that had been contracted were raining down from the sky like a torrential downpour.
Whether it's a ship anchored at sea, a deserted island, or a bustling town... the shadow of newspapers is everywhere.
This practice of wholesale distribution without charging a single penny confirms that the newspapers were once again contracted out.
Many people who found the newspaper in the early morning had a vague idea of its contents.
However, this newspaper was even more extensive than expected, featuring three front pages.
The hype surrounding the end of the Paramount War began to explode.
The world was thrown into an uproar at that moment!
Chapter 126 The King of Knights (Third Update)
Because of its domestication of News Coo that brought convenience to people, the 'World Economy News Paper' virtually monopolized the entire media industry. Its president, 'Big News Morgans' Morgans, held a very high position in both the legitimate and underworld circles, and was treated as a VIP wherever he went.
A typical newspaper consists of two sides, four pages in total.
The front page occupies the largest area, and like the headlines, the most popular news is recorded on the front page.
Arthur made headlines twice: once for defeating Crocodile, and again for murdering Celestial Dragons while concealing his identity.
This time, however, the 'World Economy News Paper' made an exception and published three front pages, which resulted in the first one or two pages of the newspaper being strung together.
Each of the three front pages has a column, from left to right, detailing two major events and three individuals.
The first column is undoubtedly about Whitebeard Pirates's victory over the Marine Headquarters in the first battle.
Although they knew that this news might worsen the Great Age of Chaos and lead to the arrival of a new era, the World Government also knew that it could not stop the spread of this news. After all, this war had been broadcast live from beginning to end and was witnessed by the world.
The second column focuses on the involvement of Red Hair Pirates, one of the Four Emperors, in the Paramount War.
As for the last one, surprisingly, it records the life of a single person.
--World 'World's Greatest Bounty Hunter! The King’s Way Straight Sword, the Pegasus of Myth, a King's Qualification Only One in a Million --' King of Knights '!--
As can be seen from the title, this is a completely sycophantic article.
Morgans listed all of 'Knight of Knights' who started his career in the East Blue, defeated Crocodile, one of the former Shichibukai, and became famous throughout the seas. His glorious achievements at the Crocodile War were all listed.
--A breath of fresh air among bounty hunters.
Defeat the Shichibukai.
He defeated several of the same generation's Supernovas and was known as the World's Greatest Bounty Hunter.
The battle at Marineford saw Marco, the "Phoenix," shot down.
Facing the combined attack of two division commanders from Whitebeard Pirates, he not only held his own but also killed Diamond Jozu, the renowned third division commander of Whitebeard Pirates in the New World.
His direct confrontation with Whitebeard showcased his kingly demeanor.
The most brilliant star in the Paramount War.
Having debuted for just over a year, Arthur's achievements are nothing short of legendary.
"The title 'Knight of Knights' is insufficient to describe him. Just like the Conqueror's Haki he displays, this knight wielding the King's Sword and riding a white Pegasus is someone all knights in the world must look up to. He is the undisputed king among knights— the King of Knights."
What is Conqueror's Haki? Most people in the world, even on the Grand Line, don't know, but that doesn't stop them from agreeing with it, just like when Morgans bestowed the title of 'Knight of Knights' upon Arthur.
Even the big shots and some powerful figures in the New World couldn't help but think of that King 'King's Sword and acknowledged the new title of Arthur.
Conqueror's Haki isn't unusual, at least not in the New World. But in the public's mind, it's always been kings' bodyguards and knights who fight on the battlefield who possess Conqueror's Haki, so that's something to be noticed.
Moreover, besides his kingly aura, that knight also possessed a King's Sword, truly resembling a king.
The Twelve Supreme Grade Blades, the Pegasus from mythology, and Conqueror's Haki — Arthur's brilliance has truly reached such a level.
For this reason, Morgans went so far as to give him a special column, placing him after the Paramount War and Red Hair Pirates. Even the third-party coalition of Impel Down criminals, Supernovas, and Revolutionary Army cadres, as well as Blackbeard Pirates who appeared last, were placed after Arthur.
This shows that Morgans saw immense potential and worldwide popularity in Arthur.
To be honest, this was the first time Morgans had ever discovered that there was someone with such a perfect persona on the high seas.
Three years ago, the captain of the Spade F faction, "Fire Fist" Portgas D. Ace, and a year ago, the handsome captain of the Spade F faction, "Haidan F Prince" White Horse Cavendish, were simply no match for "King of Knights".
·· ···Requesting flowers···· ········
This newspaper spread throughout the world, and the name 'King of Knights' was thoroughly established, making him an idol known to everyone.
Especially since the other party wasn't Hai Ni, it garnered the admiration and adoration of countless young men and women.
For some time afterward, Arthur became the object of everyone's imitation on the high seas.
The white knight's uniform, like a trend, swept the world.
On the various bustling islands, teenagers, young adults, and middle-aged people dressed in white knight outfits began to appear, and even children's knight outfits were sold.
