[Red Dragon Fruit]!

While the Marine Headquarters was holding the "Pluton Rayleigh Execution Conference".

Storm, who had flown away from Punk Hazard Island, was taking stock of all the gains from his mission.

In exchange for one Pluton Rayleigh, he received six Devil Fruits.

In.

The Logia Cloud- Cloud Fruit has already been given to Nami by Storm.

The Paramecia [Bubble Fruit] has also been transformed into Storm's own shape.

This [Bubble Fruit] has been transformed into a six-star [Bubble Ring].

Storm still has four Devil Fruit left.

Mythical Zoan [Yama-waro Fruit].

Paramecia Fruits: the Smooth- Slippery-Slippery Fruit and the Calm-Calm Fruit.

Another one is the [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit].

"Paramecia [Slippery-Slippery Fruit]..."

Storm wasn't particularly interested in this Paramecia Devil Fruit.

Although this is a "beauty fruit".

However, he clearly didn't need the "beauty effect" of this Devil Fruit.

Of all the companions Storm knew—all the companions worthy of being given Devil Fruit —there was none who needed the [Slippery-Slippery Fruit].

After a moment's thought, Storm tossed the [Slippery-Slippery Fruit] next to the few [Lizard Fruit] that hadn't been used yet.

Certainly.

No matter how terrible the Slippery-Slippery Fruit is.

It's at least better than things like the [Komodo Dragon Fruit], [Dull-tailed Poison Lizard Fruit], or [Marine Iguana Fruit].

According to Storm...

The Slippery-Slippery Fruit and the Tyrannosaurus Fruit can be considered to be in the same tier.

Let it wait for its "destined one"...

Storm put away the Slippery- Slippery-Slippery Fruit and looked at another Devil Fruit.

"Paramecia [Calm-Calm Fruit]..."

In terms of ability and effect alone...

Storm felt that this [Calm-Calm Fruit] was comparable to the [Marine Iguana Fruit] and other "Lizard Fruit".

He wasn't entirely sure yet whether the [Calm-Calm Fruit] could be developed to the desired effect.

For example, things like "restraining the [Tremor-Tremor Fruit]" or "forcibly silencing the enemy's abilities"...

However, judging solely from the performance of Donquixote Rosinante, the previous Devil Fruit User of the [Calm-Calm Fruit],...

This [Calm-Calm Fruit] is really quite lousy.

However, compared to that [Slippery-Slippery Fruit].

Storm, on the contrary, valued the [Calm-Calm Fruit], which had extremely poor performance.

The specific abilities of this Devil Fruit are not important.

However, this [Calm-Calm Fruit] can be used as "bait".

"Come to think of it, my Storm Pirates doesn't seem to have a proper 'ship's doctor,' does it?"

A figure flashed through Storm's mind, and then he carefully put the [Calm-Calm Fruit] away again.

As for the remaining two Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit...

Storm first picked up the [Yama-waro Fruit], then stepped towards the dragon's belly cabin at the back.

He has already decided on a plan to deal with this [Yama-waro Fruit]!

"I thought the [Tyrannosaurus Fruit] was a bit too low-level before, but this Mythical Zoan [Yama-waro Fruit] is perfect for giving to Weevil!"

Storm had been thinking about using Devil Fruit to improve Weevil's strength.

In his view, aside from some Paramecia Devil Fruit with rather unique abilities...

Zoan Devil Fruit are undoubtedly the most suitable type for Weevil.

The [Yama-waro Fruit] possesses a simple ability and is relatively easy to use.

It's perfect for someone like Weevil, who's "as pure as ever."

Storm, carrying the [Yama-waro Fruit], went directly into the dragon's belly cabin.

Weevil was still sleeping.

Freed from Buckingham Stussy's constraints.

Weevil's daily routine consisted of eating and sleeping, and sleeping and eating.

Storm also didn't particularly enjoy manipulating Weevil's daily actions.

As long as this guy can obediently follow orders, then there won't be any problems.

Storm looked at the fast-sleeping Weevil, raised his hand and released his power, "calling out" Edward Teach.

Edward Teach delivered a powerful punch.

Weevil's snoring stopped abruptly, and he immediately crouched down, covering his head.

"Brother! Is it time to eat again?"

"It's not a meal, it's fruit."

Storm handed the [Yama-waro Fruit] to Weevil.

"Weevil, eat it!"

Unlike his kindness towards Nami and Ace, Storm did not treat Weevil with the same gentleness, nor would he politely ask if the other wanted to eat Devil Fruit.

Since we've already decided to use Devil Fruit to enhance Weevil's strength, let him eat the Devil Fruit directly!

Weevil looked at the greenish-blue [Yama-waro Fruit] that Storm had handed him, and a trickle of saliva unconsciously escaped from the corner of his mouth. He tentatively glanced at Edward Teach beside him.

"Elder brother?"

"Weevil, eat it!"

Edward Teach's tone of voice is exactly the same as Storm's.

However, Weevil couldn't discern the nuances in their tone of voice; he only knew that his brother was telling him to eat!

Weevil immediately reached out and grabbed the [Yama-waro Fruit], popping it into his mouth like he was eating candy.

The next second.

Weevil's face turned into a bitter gourd.

"It tastes awful!"

So, Weevil actually knows what tastes good and what tastes bad?

Storm looked at Weevil with slight surprise.

He didn't speak, but instead let Edward Teach, who was standing to the side, give the orders.

"Weevil, do you sense any special abilities? Or do you want to unleash something? Close your eyes and try to understand."

"Insights?"

Weevil couldn't understand Edward Teach's words.

But he obediently closed his eyes and silently "senseed" it for a while.

Approximately one second later.

"Snoring... snoring..."

Loud snoring proved that Weevil was asleep.

Storm's lips twitched slightly.

He raised his fist, wanting to knock Weevil out of his wits and force Weevil to adapt to his newfound abilities.

But then he remembered that he had just received Weevil's [Star Trophy].

It's estimated that the other party can't provide a seven-star Big Trophy right now.

In the end, Storm lowered his fist.

'We'll teach this idiot a lesson later!'

Storm took a deep breath and left the dragon's belly cabin.

The [Yama-waro Fruit] has been given to Weevil.

There is another [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] waiting for Storm to deal with.

Storm returned to the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's dragon head chamber and picked up the [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] again.

Eight-Star Devil Fruit.

Only Eight-Star [Demon Ring] can unleash its full effect.

Storm now possesses one nine-star ring, five seven-star rings, and one six-star ring.

There's no eight-star ring...

"To upgrade a seven-star [Demon Ring], a seven-star [Star Trophy] is required."

"If it's Death Trophy, you only need one; a regular trophy requires two..."

"We're still missing a high-class Big Trophy!"

Storm examined the [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] and temporarily abandoned the idea of absorbing and using it.

The [Demon Ring] is not high enough.

The seven-star [Demon Ring] cannot unleash its full power when using the [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit].

The Nine-Star [Demon Ring] contains the Devil Power of the Eight-Star [Clay Fruit].

"Once I hunt down a seven-star Great Pirate, I'll add some points to get an Eight-Star [Demon Ring]!"

Storm immediately came up with an idea.

The [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] has a huge advantage over ordinary Devil Fruit.

This Artificial Devil Fruit is at least Eight-Star level!

Although its final destination is also Eight-Star...

But at least there's no need for Storm to put any more Big Trophy into this [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit].

"Now there's only one problem!"

Storm communicates with [the Big Trophy].

"Can the color of this [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] be changed?"

According to Vegapunk...

The color of the [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] is a "congenital defect".

Even after spending decades, Vegapunk was unable to make the color of the [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] the same as that of the [Azure Dragon Fruit].

Storm can accept Vegapunk's argument.

But he really didn't like this "pink dragon"!

Upon seeing the pink dragon, Storm would think of Kozuki Momonosuke, the Kozuki Clan, the chaotic Wano Country, and the incredibly powerful Kozuki Oden...

The thought of this made Storm feel physically uncomfortable.

Why didn't Beasts Kaido wipe out Wano Country?

All in all.

Storm intends to use this [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit].

However, he really disliked the color of this Artificial Devil Fruit.

Change it if you can!

The [Big Trophy] in the void emitted a ripple of energy.

Storm quickly received a reply from [the Big Trophy].

The color of the [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] can be changed!

To change it to the "blue-green" color of the [Azure Dragon Fruit], you'll need to spend an Eight-Star [Moonlight Trophy]!

If you want to change it to any color other than pink, all you need is a five-star [Platinum Trophy].

If it's a six-star [Diamond Trophy].

Storm will feel the pinch for a while.

But a five-star [Platinum Trophy]?

Without hesitation, Storm took out a [Platinum Trophy] and made a wish to change the color of the [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] in front of him.

As the magnificent Platinum Trophy melted into the void.

The appearance of this [Artificial Pink Dragon Fruit] also underwent a very subtle change, with its original blue-purple skin becoming even deeper in color.

At the same time.

[Big Trophy] Information regarding this Artificial Devil Fruit has also changed somewhat.

This is no longer the [artificial Pink Dragon Fruit].

Instead--

[Artificial Red Dragon Fruit]!

Crimson, a blood-red color!

Storm put away the [Artificial Red Dragon Fruit] with peace of mind.

Under his control, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon flew swiftly, returning directly from Punk Hazard to the Germa Kingdom on the Red Line Continent.

Storm handed over all the "improved treatment plan and cloning data" that Vegapunk had generously given him to Vinsmoke Gage.

Unlike Storm.

Gage is also a genius scientist and can fully understand Vegapunk's new treatment plan.

He was both shocked by Vegapunk's technical skill and envious of Vegapunk talent.

Storm, seeing the constantly changing expression on Gage, simply shook his head.

"Bear, according to Dr. Vegapunk, the new treatment plan will only take six months to cure Bonney."

"Very good!"

The Bear was overjoyed.

If he could, he would love for Bonney to recover on the spot right now!

However, the original "two and a half years" has been changed to "half a year".

This news was enough to excite Bear.

"Take good care of Bonney, and everyone else... Don't let your guard down against Dr. Gage."

Storm gave his earnest instructions.

"I will continue to update Vegapunk on the treatment progress here whenever I have the chance."

Bear nodded solemnly.

"Thank you, Storm."

"You are welcome."

Storm smiled and shook his head.

"Didn't you 'sell' me twelve years of your life?"

As per the agreement previously made between Storm and Bear.

As long as Bonney can be cured of her "Azure Jade Scales" ailment, Storm owns all of Bear's life until she grows up healthy and reaches adulthood.

Bonney is six years old.

There are still twelve years until she comes of age.

For the next twelve years, Bear will be entirely under the Storm.

However.

Bear, however, felt that "twelve years" was far too short a time.

As long as Bonney can be cured.

Bear is willing to go through fire and water for the Vongola Family, without hesitation!

Storm had no idea what the Bear was thinking.

After dealing with the trivial matters in the Germa Kingdom.

Storm immediately mounted the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and charged straight into the New World!

He plans to seize a seven-star Big Trophy before Pluton Rayleigh's Execution Incident takes place!

For that [Red Dragon Fruit]!
