Mousse and Horace's marriage marked Charlotte Linlin's complete reconciliation with the Elbaf Giants. It also effectively announced that Elbaf, the world's strongest nation, had joined Totto Land. A marriage destined to alter the balance of the world could not possibly be handled carelessly; they had to choose an auspicious day and invite distinguished guests from across the world to celebrate.
However, Mousse's betrothal gift was delivered to Elbaf immediately. At the time, it looked utterly unremarkable, so much so that Horadguna, his sister-in-law, privately complained more than once that her brother-in-law was stingy.
But after Horace ate that ordinary-looking Devil Fruit and developed its powers according to Mousse's prior instructions, all of Elbaf—and soon the entire New World—was shaken.
That Devil Fruit was none other than the Weapon-Weapon Fruit stripped from Baby 5 after the Donquixote Family had been eliminated!
Even before Mousse had transmigrated, the Weapon-Weapon Fruit had widely been considered one of the Devil Fruits with the greatest potential for development. Yet after arriving in this world, Mousse learned that it had a major limitation:
"It can only transform into cold weapons and firearms? Then why is it considered superior to the Slash-Slash Fruit? In this world, cold weapons have a higher ceiling than firearms!"
Suspicious, Mousse came up with a logically plausible hypothesis—"Perhaps it cannot exceed the user's own carrying capacity?" He then intended to find a Giant to eat it and test the theory. The Giants' carrying capacity far surpassed that of humans; some of their stronger members could carry even a warship on their backs!
Then Horace ate the Devil Fruit. Since Mousse had introduced and guided her beforehand, she truly transformed into a warship—and one entirely made of steel, an ironclad that had never before appeared on the seas in eight hundred years!
