Scale Fruit's Transformation

Cole's body slowly turned into a fish over a hundred meters long, with a huge mouth, a whale-like body, and two enormous fins... a fish...?

Looking at that fish over a hundred meters long...

The more Luo Han looked at it, the more it resembled the Kun from those game ads in his previous life!

More importantly, the thing was floating! It even seemed capable of flying!

Legend had it that a Kun could grow stronger just by eating!

Come to think of it, if that was true, it really suited Cole!

Why was he feeling a little jealous again?

So sour...

Luo Han sank into deep thought!

"Change back, Cole!" Uncle Witt quickly told Cole to change back!

Otherwise, if such a huge fish appeared on the island and the islanders saw it, it would be bad. It might cause some misunderstanding!

Cole said, "How do I change back, Dad? I don't know how."

A vast, ancient voice rang out! Even his voice had changed completely.

Cole was starting to panic!

Uncle Witt was also a little panicked. What kind of Devil Fruit ability was this? Still, it should be quite powerful, right?

Uncle Witt hurriedly said, "Think of what you originally looked like and slowly control yourself back into that form!"

Cole did as he was told and slowly recalled his own fat body. Mm! He was chubby now!

Then the giant fish slowly shrank and changed back into Cole.

"Alright! That's enough for tonight! Starting tomorrow, you'll train with me for three hours every afternoon." After saying that, Uncle Witt went back first.

Luo Han and Cole looked at each other.

After that, Luo Han and Cole did not continue their usual training.

Instead, they lay on Green Cliff and watched the stars!

Cole said, "Brother Han! I think I want to eat?"

Luo Han said, "..."

He had thought Cole would say something about getting stronger or becoming more powerful! But it turned out he was just hungry!

Forget it! Too much had happened tonight. He needed to go back and sort it all out.

"Then let's go back, Cole!"

Afterward, Luo Han and Cole headed back as well. They were silent the whole way and made it home without incident.

A flurry of activity...

Lying in bed that night, Luo Han thought about everything that had happened today.

First, there had been Uncle Kate's outburst, and then Uncle Witt had told him about his parents.

Luo Han felt that the World of Pirates really was not as wonderful as the anime he had watched before! Or perhaps only the strong got to enjoy that beauty. This was a world ruled by the strong.

The weak could only live humbly!

Sigh! Now that he had eaten the Scale Fruit too, should he develop his Devil Fruit abilities, or focus on tempering his body?

Maybe he should do both at the same time!

He would leave it at that for now. Tomorrow afternoon, he would see what Uncle Witt's special training was like first!

Sleep...

He slept well that night without any dreams. That was also a small benefit of the Mind Fruit's ability.

Better sleep quality!

After eating Grandma Mo's breakfast in the morning, he followed the usual routine and gathered at Ninth Square to practice Military Fist.

When he arrived at Uncle Witt's house, only Cole and Aunt Lillian were there!

"You're here, little Luo Han.

It's time for morning training, Cole!"

Aunt Lillian spoke to Luo Han first, then turned and called out to Cole.

Seeing Cole still gnawing on a huge chunk of fish, Luo Han thought, With such an appetite, how could his body possibly be unhealthy?

"Mm! Brother... Han, let's go!"

Cole said unclearly with his mouth full of meat.

When he stood up, he really was tall!

After eating the Devil Fruit last night, he had grown much taller overnight.

What Luo Han admired most was that Aunt Lillian remained completely unsurprised and gentle! As expected, someone who could subdue Uncle Witt right after he returned was no ordinary person!

They walked along the road to Ninth Square!

Looking at ten-year-old Cole, who was already 1.8 meters tall, then at his own height of 1.2 meters, Luo Han did not know which one was normal and which one was not.

Luo Han felt a little miserable!

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Luo Han and Cole arrived at the square together.

By then, all the island's children of the right age had already gathered there.

Brother Rhine was, as always, organizing everyone into position and leading their morning exercises.

As the sun rose, a new day of morning training began!

One after another, the children's young yet resolute shouts rang out as they practiced their punches!

This time, Luo Han truly felt Cole's change!

As he practiced, a clear current slowly seeped through his entire body. It felt incredibly wonderful.

It was as if every cell in his body had been nourished.

He could not feel any fatigue at all. Instead, he grew stronger and stronger.

As time passed, Luo Han immersed himself in practicing his punches and forgot everything for a while.

He carefully sensed his body. Perhaps because of the Mind Fruit's ability, Luo Han could perceive his body in great detail.

He could clearly feel how his body and cells became firmer and more vibrant step by step in such a short time.

And this kind of visibly growing stronger was truly intoxicating.

For a moment, Luo Han became a little obsessed!

"Alright, this morning's training ends here. If you train too much, your body won't be able to handle it." Brother Rhine's voice pulled Luo Han out of his trance!

When he stopped moving, he realized that three hours had already passed. He had not felt it at all.

He really wanted to keep practicing. That feeling of his whole body being relaxed and refreshed was simply too addictive!

At that moment, Brother Rhine walked toward Luo Han, while the children around them looked at Luo Han in surprise!

Only Cole had no idea why everyone was looking at Luo Han.

Luo Han was also completely confused!

Brother Rhine said, "Luo Han, you need to practice in moderation.

You can only practice for three hours each morning. You can't do more.

Your body's energy can't keep up. Just look at your body now and you'll understand!"

My body? What was wrong with his body?

Luo Han quickly raised his hand and looked at it, his mouth falling slightly open!

Was this really his hand? His bones and veins were clearly visible! When he touched his face, it was the same.

His whole body had thinned down by a full size, even though he had felt as though every cell in his body was incredibly refreshed.

How had he ended up like this? Looking at the others, it seemed he was the only one like this.

Cole had clearly been perfectly normal yesterday!

"Brother Rhine, why is this happening?" Luo Han hurriedly asked.

Cole also looked nervously at Brother Rhine.

"Did you secretly practice your punches last night? After eating the Scale Fruit, you can't practice too much.

The Scale Fruit's transformation of the body consumes energy, and each person has a limited amount of energy every day.

Once you exceed that limit, the Scale Fruit will directly consume your body's reserves.

When that happens, the body can't withstand the consumption and will become thinner, just like yours."

Brother Rhine loudly and carefully explained it to Luo Han, using the opportunity to remind the other children as well.

Mm!... But Luo Han had not trained extra at all?

"Is that so? Then, Brother Rhine, when you practice, do you feel a clear current slowly seeping through your entire body?"

Luo Han asked Brother Rhine in an inquisitive tone.

Brother Rhine said, "No! I only feel that after practicing, I become stronger or my body gets tougher.

The feeling you described, Luo Han, was probably just an illusion caused by the sudden improvement after eating the Scale Fruit and receiving its transformation for the first time!"

No! That was not what he had experienced! Luo Han was certain that feeling had been real.
