Munch-Munch Fruit, Super Windfire Wheel

"How was it, Windfire Wheel? What did it feel like to eat a Devil Fruit?" Rody asked curiously.

"Yeah, Windfire Wheel, what did it feel like? None of us have ever eaten one before." Everyone looked at Windfire Wheel with curious expressions. Carmen and her apprentice in particular, being chefs, practically perked their ears up.

Windfire Wheel rubbed his chin, thought for a moment, and slowly said, "How should I put it... It was... a very strange feeling. I don't know how to describe it to you."

"Tch." Everyone looked disappointed.

Still unwilling to give up, Carmen stared at Windfire Wheel and pressed, "Windfire Wheel, think carefully. Devil Fruits are food worth at least 100 million Beli. Food that expensive must have some magical flavor, right?"

"The flavor really was magical, but I truly don't know how to describe it to you. After all, I'm a motorcycle man. I usually only drink motor oil, unlike you humans, who can eat so many things and taste all sorts of flavors."

"But Devil Fruits really are amazing. After eating one, I instinctively knew that I could now eat anything. Haha... From now on, I won't have to sit in the corner drinking motor oil while watching you eat delicious food in restaurants anymore. Haha..." Windfire Wheel said excitedly.

"How... could it be like that? That was a fruit worth at least 100 million Beli!" Carmen said dejectedly.

"How about this? The next time the captain gets another Devil Fruit, you can prepare it first and make a fruit salad," Windfire Wheel consoled her.

"Alright, we can talk about that later. Windfire Wheel, tell us about your abilities first," Rody interrupted their discussion and ordered.

"Yes, Captain. After eating the Devil Fruit, I instinctively knew that I could eat anything and turn what I ate into part of my body, or combine what I ate into something new. I can even eat myself, then reassemble and upgrade myself," Windfire Wheel explained excitedly.

"Alright. Go eat those first and let me see what you can do." Rody pointed at the castle ruins.

"Yes, Captain."

"Even though I know I can eat these things, it still feels strange when I actually have to do it," Windfire Wheel muttered as he walked toward the castle ruins.

Standing before the ruins, Windfire Wheel's mechanical mouth—though Windfire Wheel and the others did not need their mouths to speak, they were indeed designed with mouths—suddenly opened wide enough to fit a washbasin. Then, facing the castle debris scattered across the ground, he began swallowing.

"Well? Isn't that amazing? Want me to find one for you too?" Rody asked Nami beside him as he watched Windfire Wheel devour the castle rubble.

"It is amazing, but if it's this kind, then forget it!" Nami looked thoroughly disgusted at Windfire Wheel's gaping mouth.

"How could that be? Even if you wanted to eat one, I wouldn't agree. I've already thought of a fruit that suits you."

In the brief time Rody and the others spent talking, Windfire Wheel had already finished chewing through the castle ruins, and his body had grown enormous.

"How is it, Windfire Wheel? After eating the entire castle, aside from getting bigger, did anything else change?" Rody asked.

"Captain, aside from becoming larger, I feel like my body has become much harder too."

"Alright, let me see what you can synthesize after eating so much." As soon as Rody finished speaking, everyone watched Windfire Wheel expectantly.

"No problem, Captain. Just don't be too shocked. Haha..."

"Super Motorcycle Factory!"

Windfire Wheel responded excitedly. Then his enormous body shifted and transformed, and a large door appeared on it. The door opened, and a large green off-road vehicle drove out.

"Cool!"

"Windfire Wheel, this vehicle looks amazing! We've never seen anything like it!" Leo and Jose excitedly touched and inspected the off-road vehicle from every angle, while Nami and the others carefully examined it as well. Although cars existed in the pirate world, fashionable models were all found in the New World. East Blue mostly had old-fashioned cars from the last century. Those born in East Blue had never seen a vehicle like this.

"Hehe... I made this off-road vehicle using a companion of mine from Motorcycle World, someone named Shockwave, as the model."

"Then can you make the sports car Thunderbolt and the fighter jet Supersonic that you told us about?" Leo and Jose often listened to Windfire Wheel's stories about Machine Beast World, so they naturally looked at him with eager expressions.

"Of course. Not only transportation like sports cars and planes—I can also make all kinds of weapons and equipment, or upgrade weapons and equipment."

"And I discovered that the alloy on these vehicles I create is much tougher than ordinary metal. It also has a memory function that ordinary alloys don't possess. Even if it gets damaged, it can repair itself."

"Haha... I've named this special alloy Windfire Alloy. What do you think? Sounds good, right?" Windfire Wheel said proudly.

Rody nodded in satisfaction and smiled. "Mm, very nice. Looks like I'll get to drive all kinds of vehicles in the future. Windfire Wheel, show us any other skills you have too."

"Hehe... This skill of mine is incredible. Don't blink, everyone. You'll definitely be blown away," Windfire Wheel said confidently.

Hearing Windfire Wheel say that, everyone immediately became interested and stared at him in unison, wanting to see what kind of skill had made him so confident.

"Haha..."

Windfire Wheel was very pleased by everyone's anticipation. With a confident grin, he shouted, "Windfire Wheel Super Evolution!"

The next moment, Windfire Wheel's huge mouth actually swallowed his entire body from top to bottom, leaving behind only a barrel-shaped chunk of iron.

"That's it?"

"What... the hell is this?" Nami said speechlessly.

"What was that? You looked so confident that I thought it would be some amazing skill. Turns out you just ate yourself and turned into a chunk of iron."

"Exactly, exactly. That skill isn't cool at all." Leo and Jose also expressed their disappointment in Windfire Wheel's skill.

Rody, however, was full of anticipation for this skill. In the original story, Wapol had eaten his own body and used that to alter his skeletal structure. When he spat himself back out after eating himself, he had changed from a fat man into a tall, thin, agile person.

Not long after, the round chunk of iron Windfire Wheel had turned into let out a bang, and a cloud of smoke burst forth. As the smoke dispersed, a completely blue motorcycle man appeared, carrying two cannons on his body. His steel frame gleamed with bright metallic luster as he held a one-knee kneeling pose.

"Super Windfire Wheel has arrived!"
