[Comment: Soft and moist]
Storm first took out the [Bubble Fruit] from the treasure chest, and the Big Trophy immediately displayed its corresponding ability information.
This is a strange fruit with Violet and its skin is covered with Arabesque Swirl Pattern. At first glance, it looks a bit like a mutated cantaloupe.
Storm was particularly impressed by the [Bubble Fruit].
Upon seeing the [Bubble Fruit], I immediately thought of CP9 agents, Kalifa, long, flowing golden hair, thin, frameless black glasses, black fishnet stockings, and the agent sister duo...
Cough cough!
Storm forcibly shifted his attention away from the "next" Devil Fruit User of the [Bubble Fruit].
In his mind, the effects of the [Bubble Fruit] were not simply limited to "releasing and creating bubbles".
The bubbles created by the [Bubble Fruit] have the specific effect of "cleaning"!
Moreover, this "cleaning" ability.
It's not just about "cleaning" in a physical sense.
The Bubble Fruit can even "clean up" some conceptual abilities!
For example—strength!
As far as Storm knows.
Even though Kalifa had only recently eaten the Bubble- Bubble Fruit, she could still use her abilities to forcibly weaken the power of her enemies!
In other words...
This ability to "cleanse" is a "basic ability" inherent in the [Bubble Fruit]!
You can achieve a conceptual-level effect without in-depth development.
In Storm's memory, the last Paramecia Devil Fruit who could gain conceptual-level abilities simply by virtue of their own power was...
It's still Bartholomew Bear's [Nikyu Nikyu no Mi]!
Since the Bubble Fruit can cleanse "strength," what about "speed"? And "endurance"?
And what about other conceptual abilities?
This moment.
Storm also thought of something else, or rather, a "weapon"!
Among Vegapunk's many groundbreaking inventions, there is one very special weapon—
[Bubble Gun].
Judging from the name alone, [Bubble Gun] is nothing special, and even looks a bit like a child's toy water gun.
However, the "bubbles" emitted from the [Bubble Gun] actually contain extremely concentrated ocean essence, which can weaken any Devil Fruit User comes into contact with it!
If Vegapunk's Bubble Gun could suppress Devil Fruit User...
So, could the [Bubble Fruit], which already possesses the ability to "cleanse," also do this?
Storm couldn't be sure yet, but he was very clear--
The potential of the [Bubble Fruit] is definitely not low!
Storm put down the [Bubble Fruit] and picked up another Devil Fruit instead.
The [Bubble Fruit] has immense potential, but most people are unaware of this.
But this [Cloud Fruit] is different!
Logia Devil Fruit are considered a "guaranteed" Devil Fruit.
In Storm's memory, the [Cloud Fruit] had never appeared on the sea.
Neither now nor in the future has the [Cloud Fruit] appeared.
The World Government has actually produced a [Cloud Fruit]!
'Looks like there's still a lot of money to be made from the World Government...'
'But it makes sense, considering it's World Government that has ruled the seas for eight hundred years...'
'Even in a hunting competition for natives from World Government Member States, the World Government can casually offer powerful Devil Fruit like the [Azure Dragon Fruit] and the [Nikyu Nikyu no Mi] as prizes...'
'It's perfectly acceptable to offer one [Cloud Fruit] now...'
In Storm's opinion, the [Cloud Fruit] has quite good potential.
Creating clouds, influencing weather, interfering with meteorology, and even manipulating the climate...
If the [Cloud Fruit] falls into the hands of a meteorologist with sufficient professional expertise, it will surely shine with unparalleled brilliance!
And coincidentally, Storm has just such a gifted "little genius" under his command!
The genius navigator— Nami!
Storm already possessed the "invincible" [Rumble-Rumble Fruit], and later added points to and upgraded the [Flame-Flame Fruit].
He possesses two Logia Devil Fruits.
Storm wasn't very interested in the [Cloud Fruit].
In his eyes, the allure of the Cloud- Cloud Fruit was less than that of the Paramecia Bubble Fruit...
But.
For Nami, the power of the Cloud- Cloud Fruit is just right.
This Logia [Cloud Fruit] is probably the most suitable Devil Fruit for Nami on the sea, bar none.
In a fleeting moment.
Storm has already considered how to deal with the [Cloud Fruit].
'Speaking of which, both the Cloud- Cloud Fruit and the Bubble Fruit seem to be Devil Fruit with the 'water' attribute...'
And at this time...
Kizaru was still explaining the names and general abilities of the two Devil Fruits.
Finally, Kizaru added one more sentence.
"... The Gorosei mentioned to me that if you hand over Pluton Rayleigh to the government now, I can go and bring the remaining three Devil Fruit over right now."
This is indeed the intention of the Gorosei.
This "Pluton deal".
One side pays "Pluton Rayleigh," and the other side pays "five fruits."
The two Devil Fruit Kizaru has brought over are merely a "deposit".
The Gorosei want to make White Dragon understand how important this deal is to him!
But.
Kizaru glanced out of the corner of his eye at Pluton Rayleigh was looking exhausted.
'If Storm is this weak right now... the Gorosei won't let this go, will they?'
"I know the Gorosei are in a hurry, but I'm telling them not to rush."
Storm put away the two Devil Fruits and said calmly.
"I still need to go to Punk Hazard Island!"
"Let them put the remaining three—no, four— Devil Fruit on Punk Hazard Island first!"
"At that time, we'll hand over the pirates with one hand and the Devil Fruit with the other."
Storm was very satisfied with the [Bubble Fruit] and the [Cloud Fruit].
However, he had no intention of handing over Pluton Rayleigh, right now.
What if the World Government suddenly reneges on its promise after we've given away Pluton Rayleigh?
Storm has never hesitated to assume the worst about the World Government.
"Okay, I understand."
Kizaru stroked his chin and pointed at Rayleigh beside him.
"Don't let this legend from Old Era get away!"
"Otherwise, the government will have a real headache."
"Rest assured."
Storm nodded.
"I have always been very careful to protect my personal property from infringement."
"Even pirates are studying law now, that's really scary~"
A flash of yellow light emanated from Kizaru's body, and his figure slowly disappeared from the spot.
"However, since we've come all this way to Sabaody Archipelago, we still need to work for a while..."
"I'm just destined to be a workaholic~"
A yellow flash, coming and going in a hurry.
"Lord White Dragon"
Perona glanced around warily, afraid that the Admiral had just disappeared might suddenly reappear.
What does it mean when Kizaru says he wants to 'work'?
"They've probably gone to other islands to hunt down pirates... Anyway, it's none of our business."
Storm shook his head.
He then turned his gaze to the Old Era pirates standing to the side.
"Pluton Rayleigh, you'll stay with me for a while!"
Storm extended his right hand and unleashed the power of the Clay- Clay Fruit, summoning a large mass of clay to completely and thoroughly envelop and bind Pluton Rayleigh, leaving only two breathing holes exposed.
He planned to meet Robin and the others first, and then head to Punk Hazard Island.
Let's leave it at that for now, Rayleigh!
Storm looked at the Blue-Eyes White Dragon in the sky, and the latter immediately flew down.
"Yohohoho!"
Brook's laughter landed on the ground before his.
"Captain, what a convenient ability!"
"Most of the trivial matters have been taken care of!"
Storm sent Rayleigh onto the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, then waved to the Old Skull and the Ghost Princess.
Let's go play together!
For the next half day.
Storm, Perona, and Brook spent some time relaxing and enjoying themselves on the Sabaody Archipelago.
During this time, they also heard news about Kizaru.
This Admiral did indeed go off to capture pirates right after he left...
Although this kind of thing doesn't sound very "Kizaru".
However, Kizaru did indeed capture a large number of pirates on the Sabaody Archipelago.
Judging from the reactions of passersby, Kizaru captured at least five hundred pirates.
Storm's assessment was -- "As expected of the Yellow Flash!"
On the Sabaody Archipelago.
Perona bought some pretty little dresses and jewelry.
Brook also applied to purchase a large number of musical instruments.
After we'd had our fill of sightseeing...
Storm and his two companions returned to the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and rode it towards the Red Line Continent.
The normal way for pirates to reach the New World is through Fish-Man Island, which is 10,000 meters below the surface.
But Storm plans to fly over the Red Line Continent before heading to the New World!
In addition.
Storm had just spoken with Robin and the others.
After this period of voyage, the giant snail of the Germa Kingdom has successfully completed its journey...
Most of the journey.
Simply put, it is --
The giant snail has already climbed the side of the Red Line Continent closest to the East Blue and is currently on land ten thousand meters above sea level, heading towards the remaining side of the Red Line Continent closest to the North Blue.
It is estimated that it will take more than a week for the giant snail to reach North Blue...
Storm rode the Blue-Eyes White Dragon swiftly toward the Red Line Continent.
On the Sabaody Archipelago.
With her bandages wrapped around her, Shakky watched the White Dragon fly away into the distance, and finally decided to make a call to the Den Den Mushi.
The invisible Den Den Mushi signal travels from the Sabaody Archipelago all the way to the Calm Belt.
"Hancock... Rayleigh, has been kidnapped..."
Served at dawn!
It's teetering on the brink of collapse... Goodnight everyone.
Wrong.
I forgot to ask for subscriptions and monthly votes!
Goodnight everyone.
Tomorrow (it's already today), it will be the fourth watch.
