The Devil Fruit ability was activated, awakened!
The submarine beneath Bullet's feet formed the core components. Some nearby ships and warships flew over, and even Beast Island in the distance was sucked over whole, perfectly merging into the Steel Beast's body.
From afar, it looked like Godzilla with half its body planted in the sea, or a majestic mountain range rising high above the ocean.
Even though this was a coastal area, the depth below the surface was nearly a hundred meters. By that calculation, the Steel Beast was roughly three hundred meters tall.
Compared with the Steel Giant's second form from three years ago, this was undoubtedly an overwhelming improvement.
The people aboard the Sea Restaurant cried out in utter panic.
"What is that? Something like this shouldn't exist at all!"
"You've got to be kidding! Is Lord Longinus really going to fight a monster like that?"
In truth, let alone the ordinary guests, even Zeff and Smoker couldn't suppress the shock in their hearts when they saw this scene.
In terms of visual impact, Devil Fruit users—especially one like Bullet, who had developed his Devil Fruit ability to an extremely profound level—could create disturbances far more shocking than a Martial Arts expert like Longinus.
"Were you planning to use your full strength from the start?" Under everyone's horrified gazes, Longinus stepped on Geppo and flew out.
"For someone like you, is there any need to test the waters?" The Steel Beast moved its body, and a muffled voice came from within it.
"Maybe I'll get careless?"
"You think I'm some idiot like Buggy?"
Buggy:
Almost as soon as the words left his mouth, the Steel Beast swung down one claw, its sharp fingertips tearing through the air.
With this size and strength, it needed no technique at all.
