Chapter 725

Marco looked at Chen Fan's smiling face, took a deep breath to calm himself down, and understood what had happened from Chen Fan's words. Ace had tried to steal the Devil Fruit others had worked so hard to obtain, but ended up losing his own Devil Fruit in the process. It was already merciful of Chen Fan not to kill Ace.

Marco shook his head at Chen Fan and said, "No, I was just responsible for bringing Ace back. To prevent anyone else from plotting against him, since Ace lost the bet, the Devil Fruit naturally belongs to you. However, this feud is now in the making, and we will welcome you to the New World." After saying that, his body transformed into a Phoenix and left with Ace.

He hadn't initially resisted taking the Devil Fruit from Chen Fan, but when he saw the fleeting greed in Chen Fan's eyes, he quickly regained his composure. Whitebeard wasn't mindless; Blackbeard's ability to leave a wound on Red-Haired's face was merely average. Chen Fan's ability to defeat Blackbeard meant he was incredibly strong. Regardless of the outcome of Ace's fight against Chen Fan, he would definitely suffer some injury. If he were captured by the Marines (Qian Nuo Zhao), it would be disastrous. Therefore, he sent Marco the Phoenix to provide backup.

Unfortunately, he arrived too late; Chen Fan had already extracted the Devil Fruit. For Ace's safety, he decided to take Ace back to the Whitebeard Pirates first.

The news that Chen Fan had defeated Fire Fist Ace and extracted Ace's Flame-Flame Fruit spread throughout the world in an instant, shocking the world once again, and at the same time, fueling greed.

Chen Fan currently possesses two of the strongest Logia Devil Fruit, meaning that defeating Chen Fan would grant the acquisition of these two powerful Logia Devil Fruit.

Afterwards, the New World newspapers carried Whitebeard's words, which shook the world. But thinking about it, it makes sense. When has the Whitebeard Pirates ever suffered a loss? The 2nd Division commander was defeated by an outsider. They certainly wouldn't let it go. If Chen Fan enters the New World, there's bound to be a good show to watch.

Chapter 209 The Heaven's Gate

(Chapter 209 The Heaven's Gate)

The Navy Headquarters has also given Chen Fan a new bounty of 800 million Beli, but who would care about that 800 million Beli now? It's just another way to raise Chen Fan's Daimyo in the spotlight. The two Devil Fruit Chen Fan possesses are priceless treasures.

No matter what people in the world say, it has nothing to do with Chen Fan, and Chen Fan doesn't care at all. With Robin, the professional intelligence gatherer, finally finding out about Sky Island, or rather, about the Sky Island Knock Up Stream has found out about it. But that's enough. Although Chen Fan's goal for this trip is Enel's Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Chen Fan's worried about leaving them here. Besides, Chen Fan a greedy man; he can't do without women by his side. If he needs something, is he going to use his right hand to solve it? That's not his job. And Sky Island is a very magical place; it would be a pity not to take Nami and the others with him.

The ship sailed towards the direction of the Knock Up Stream. Chen Fan sat on the deck, tossing the Flame-Flame Fruit up and down. This was Logia Devil Fruit; it couldn't be wasted as energy.

"Nami...! You can have this Devil Fruit." Chen Fan said casually. It was after this incident that Chen Fan realized that even if he was strong enough, he couldn't protect everyone completely. At the very least, Nami needed to have the ability to protect herself.

Nami hesitated for a moment before taking the Devil Fruit and biting into it. Perhaps the old Nami would have refused, but after this incident, especially the feeling of helplessness they experienced when Chen Fan was unconscious, they would have perished together if Robin hadn't constantly used her powers to protect the ship. So, she needed to have enough power.

"It tastes awful!" Nami cried out, tears streaming down her face, as if she wanted to spit it out.

Chen Fan smiled and said, "I haven't tried it either, but Robin and Vivi have, right? What does it taste like?"

Robin and Vivi's expressions also changed. Robin waved his hand at Chen Fan and said, "Don't say anything more. I don't want to recall that scene."

However, Nami quickly gritted her teeth and ate the Devil Fruit in one gulp, then ran to the toilet to vomit;

Chen Fan looked at Robin and asked, "What does it feel like to have the power of Devil Fruit?"

"What do you mean?" Robin didn't quite understand what Chen Fan meant.

"Well... nothing?" Chen Fan waved his hand and said (cgae). Even if he asked, there wouldn't be any results. Superpowered individuals are all different. One type of ability user simply cannot understand another's ability state. Perhaps only by trying it himself would he find out. However, Chen Fan did not intend to try. If it came to abilities, his Vector Manipulation was still more comprehensive. The weaknesses of Devil Fruit User were too obvious.

Soon Chen Fan and his group spotted a cluster of Cumulo Nimbus. Robin said, "That's it."

The ship sailed towards the whirlpool and was quickly drawn into it. Everyone screamed in terror, especially Nami. While she was vomiting, the ship had somehow made it into the whirlpool, but the sea quickly returned to calm.

"It stopped?" Nami asked in surprise;

Chen Fan smiled mysteriously and said, "No! It's only just begun."

"Boom...!"

With a deafening roar, a towering current rose into the sky, carrying the ship upwards. The sails unfurled, and fueled by the wind, the ship soared straight into the heavens. Amidst the screams of fear from the three girls and Chen Fan's loud laughter, the scene unfolded.

Now all the girls had run into Chen Fan's arms. His previous plan to scare the girls into running into his arms by using fishing had failed, but this time it had all succeeded, so Chen Fan was naturally happy.

Passing through a thick layer of clouds, the ship landed above a white cloud. Everyone looked around in amazement at the scenery. The ship was actually sailing above the clouds! It looked so magical. Seeing it in animation and experiencing it in person are two completely different things. The white clouds below the ship were rolling, just like sailing on the sea. However, the seawater had turned into white clouds, which made it feel somewhat dreamlike.

"How amazing! How beautiful!" The girls couldn't help but exclaim upon seeing such a novel and beautiful scene;
