The Florian Triangle!
The trophy appeared in the void.
Seeing this, Storm waved his hand, extinguishing the raging flames in front of him.
Over the past few days.
Edward Teach was relentlessly beating (crossed out) – disciplining Weevil.
Meanwhile, Storm on the other side was also busy.
Take advantage of this time.
Storm has largely absorbed the many abilities he had recently upgraded.
This includes [Armament Haki], which has now been upgraded to Eight-Star!
There's also a seven-star [Flame-Flame Fruit]!
Logia Devil Fruit are not beyond potential development.
It's just that most Devil Fruit User haven't developed them to a sufficient level...
It's like something like the [Smoke Fruit] or the [Snow Snow Fruit].
To give a simple example.
Crocodile and his Sand- Suna Suna no Mi.
Sand Crocodile has his own unique approach to developing Devil Fruit abilities.
The Suna Suna no Mi, a Logia Devil Fruit that manipulates sand, was developed by Sand Crocodile into a derivative ability that was almost "dried up".
Of course, this "power of dryness" is also based on the [Suna Suna no Mi].
However, no one can deny the depth of Sand Crocodile's development beyond the [Suna Suna no Mi]!
In comparison.
The [Smoke Fruit], a Devil Fruit with similar properties and form to the [Suna Suna no Mi], failed to demonstrate any significant abilities in Smoker's hands...
Let's get back to the [Flame-Flame Fruit].
Storm's development direction for the [Flame-Flame Fruit] is very clear, which can be summarized in two words: --
Temperature!
In Storm's understanding, the temperature limit that fire can reach is absolutely incomparable to that of mere magma.
If the temperature of the flame is high enough, the entire world can be set ablaze!
It's like a katana that, once used, can evaporate all the water vapor in the world and forcibly seal the abilities of a certain ice-type child...
Storm didn't expect the seven-star [Flame-Flame Fruit] to burn mountains and seas, incinerate the world, or generate any other "supernatural power"...
But shouldn't the [Flame-Flame Fruit] be countered by other abilities?
"The hierarchy of Devil Fruit... tsk!"
Storm shook his head, banishing the distracting thoughts from his mind.
He then turned his gaze to the seven-star Big Trophy provided by Edward Weevil.
Given Weevil's skill level, Storm felt that receiving a seven-star rating was not a problem.
This guy may be a bit dim-witted, but he's incredibly strong.
Otherwise.
Weevil wouldn't have received an invitation from the World Government to become Shichibukai, and he wouldn't have been able to defeat so many remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Without hesitation, Storm immediately invested the seven-star [Star Trophy] into his [Speed] attribute.
[Speed: ★★★★★★★☆] (7.5 stars)
"Just one step away from Eight-Star..."
Storm touched his stomach, and the familiar feeling of hunger surged up again.
Let's eat first!
Exhausted and unconscious, Weevil was awakened by a rich aroma of food.
The moment he opened his eyes, he began sniffing incessantly, running like a golden retriever to the source of the food aroma.
Thump!
A powerful fist slammed into Weevil's head, and the intense pain instantly jolted him awake.
"Go wash up first, then eat."
"Don't want!"
Weevil scratched his head, the temptation of the food making his legs stand still as if nailed to the spot.
"I'm hungry! I want to eat!"
Storm wasn't going to tolerate Weevil.
Thump!
Edward Teach appeared silently and punched Weevil in the head again.
Weevil collapsed to the ground.
Edward Teach dragged Weevil directly to the ocean near Long Ring Long Land for a wash before bringing him back with him.
I'll say it again.
If a child is disobedient, it's probably just a matter of getting a spanking; a good spanking will do the trick.
After being jolted back to his senses by Edward Teach's "iron fist," Weevil, even after sitting back down next to the mountain of food, didn't clamor for food like before.
Weevil stared at the food in front of him, even though his mouth was practically watering, but he still glanced cautiously at Edward Teach.
"Brother, aren't you going to eat?"
Weevil seems to have fallen into the food chain of the animal kingdom.
If the eldest brother doesn't eat, he, as the younger brother, doesn't even dare to open his mouth.
Edward Teach was just Clay Person, so of course he didn't need to eat. He glanced indifferently at Weevil and gave the order directly.
"You can eat now!"
"Thank you, brother!"
Weevil's face lit up with excitement. He grabbed a piece of Sea King roast meat and stuffed it into his mouth, finishing the large piece in just a few bites.
This guy not only inherited the monster's Physique, but also its appetite.
With the combined efforts of Storm and Weevil, the mountain of food that had been prepared was completely cleared away.
Weevil lay on the ground, his stomach stuffed full of food, like a giant balloon.
Weevil, who had previously regained her "slim figure," seems to be experiencing a "weight rebound" after this meal.
Storm glanced at Edward Teach beside him.
The latter immediately stood up and walked to Weevil's side.
Weevil, who was lying on the ground enjoying the bliss of being well-fed and watered, suddenly felt a shadow loom over him.
"Brother, brother?"
After several days of unilateral beatings.
Weevil has completely succumbed to Edward Teach's "iron fist".
My older brother isn't as gentle as my mother.
And the older brother's hits hurt much more than the mother's...
Weevil had forgotten what Storm had once told him.
Weevil couldn't understand such euphemistic expressions as "went to the sea."
However, there's Edward Teach, who's like an "older brother" to rely on.
Weevil doesn't miss Buckingham Stussy right now.
"Stop lying down, stand up, and keep fighting me."
Edward Teach gave a simple command.
Weevil dared not resist and obediently got up from the ground.
However, this time it was just "post-meal exercise to aid digestion."
Edward Teach didn't go too far.
During the training of Weevil.
Storm was also carefully observing the fighting style of this big, clumsy guy.
A straightforward fighting style, with virtually no fancy techniques, relying entirely on instinct and strength...
'That perfectly matches Weevil's intelligence level!'
Several thoughts flashed through Storm's mind.
To be honest.
Asking Weevil to pull off any fancy tricks is really putting him in a difficult position.
This guy is suited to those simple, unpretentious fighting styles.
Storm immediately thought of what abilities would suit Weevil.
[Tekkai]!
Weevil probably won't be able to master the other moves of the [Rokushiki].
However, the [Tekkai] that makes you stronger by getting hit is something Weevil could give a try.
Aside from physical skills.
Storm was also considering whether to give Weevil a Devil Fruit.
Weevil is now his subordinate.
As long as I don't run into the real Edward Newgate with the Whitebeard.
Weevil has virtually no chance of rebelling.
Storm is quite confident about this.
It's no exaggeration to say that...
Storm has already come to regard Weevil as his staunch follower!
Since they are staunch supporters.
Therefore, we must consider the possibility of the opponent improving their strength.
However, if you want to improve a person's skill level in a short period of time.
The effects of Devil Fruit are undoubtedly the most immediate!
Storm took into account Weevil's personal qualities.
He instantly abandoned all sorts of Paramecia Devil Fruit.
As for the Logia and Zoan...
Both of these are actually quite suitable for Weevil.
Logia don't require in-depth development; they can make a name for themselves with their basic abilities alone.
Zoan is even simpler and more direct; they are thick-skinned and tough, and are especially good at "sit-ups".
For a pirate like Weevil... whose "sacred nature remains unchanged".
Storm still felt that the Zoan was more suitable.
He does possess a few Zoan Devil Fruit.
The Ancient Zoan also has one— the Tyrannosaurus Fruit.
However, Storm still felt that these Devil Fruits were a bit "weak".
"Let's wait and see if we can encounter any other top-tier Devil Fruit..."
"If it really suits them, Paramecia Devil Fruit aren't out of the question..."
A "post-meal digestion exercise" has come to an end.
Edward Teach then brought Weevil to Storm's side.
"Captain."
Weevil glanced at his brother and whispered to Storm.
"Captain."
"Good."
Storm waved to Weevil, signaling him to follow him.
"We need to leave Long Ring Long Land now!"
"Oh..."
Weevil obediently followed behind Storm, all the way to the belly of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's cabin.
Edward Teach gave Weevil his final order.
"Go and rest!"
"Okay, brother!"
Weevil had been wanting to rest for a while.
Upon hearing Edward Teach's words, he immediately fell asleep, not caring where he was.
It only took a few seconds.
The familiar snoring sound once again echoed within the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's body.
"Being young is great, you can fall asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow..."
Storm picked at his ear and walked directly to the head of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.
He had long ago transformed the head of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon into a "cockpit," which is also the location of his "Captain."
Storm piloted the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, flapping its wings and soaring away from the Long Ring Long Land.
Target – the Devil's Triangle!
The Blue-Eyes White Dragon flies at an extremely high speed.
It didn't take long to Luffy from Long Ring Long Land all the way to the Devil's Triangle.
This is a special sea area filled with mist; the deep fog shrouds the entire ocean, its density enough to block out sunlight.
From a distance, it looked like a dark, devilish sea.
Storm rode his Blue-Eyes White Dragon, soaring through the sky, surveying the peculiar sea before him.
Eight-Star Observation Haki, infused with the unique electromagnetic induction ability of the Rumble- Rumble-Rumble Fruit, surged from his body, penetrating into the Devil's Triangle ahead and continuing to penetrate deeper.
Storm caught one "sound" after another.
Rolling waves, lifeless reefs, sailing ships...
Just then, a clear and melodious piano sound entered Storm's [Observation Haki].
Accompanying this was a very familiar piece of music at the beginning.
That's a timeless classic song known to countless pirates on the high seas.
<Binks' Sake>
