Size-Size Fruit

"Give this fruit to that lizard! I need it."

After thinking it over, Ye Chen decided to deal with whatever came his way and give the fruit to the vehicle.

This Devil Fruit arrived at just the right time, adding the finishing touch to Ye Chen's subsequent plans.

"Give it to that stupid dragon?" Bai Doudou tossed her carrot dagger with satisfaction, her expression exaggerated upon hearing Ye Chen's decision.

"Yeah, I'm useful. Didn't you complain about our mode of transportation? From now on, this silly dragon will be yours to drive. You'll be cool enough."

Nodding, Ye Chen said in an annoyed tone, which made Bai Doudou's ears perk up immediately.

"Hehe." Drooling was dripping from his mouth. At this moment, Bai Doudou's mind was filled with the image of him riding on that stupid dragon, parading around the world.

"I'm going right now, he'll be my brother from now on." Snatching the Devil Fruit, Bai Doudou disappeared in a flash, as swift and energetic as a wild rabbit.

He smiled, then Ye Chen expression turned serious.

On the other side, the Fire Dragon carried out Ye Chen's command perfectly, lying still and not moving at all. The aura Ye Chen gave it was so terrifying that it cast a shadow on its mind, making it excessively obedient.

Around them were guards, all looking at the Fire Dragon with some fear, clearly recognizing it.

In fact, this Fire Dragon was an artificial creature created by Vegapunk to protect the island. It can adapt to any Fire Dragon, meaning that no matter how harsh the place, whether it's ice, fire, poisonous fog, or swamp, given time, it can survive.

In addition, it has thick skin and strong flesh, with strong defense, recovery and attack power. It can also fly and breathe fire, just like the dragons in legends.

Its only drawback might be that its intelligence hasn't fully developed, but it still possesses basic wisdom; another is that it can't speak. Ye Chen was able to understand the Fire Dragon's thoughts entirely because of his Observation Haki.

"Hey! Big silly dragon, wake up!"

Not long after, Bai Doudou arrived in front of the Fire Dragon and found it sleeping, drooling.

"Who's disturbing my sleep?"

The enormous roar echoed throughout the research institute, startling some of the guards who hurriedly raised their weapons, trembling as they stared at the Fire Dragon, knowing that this dragon was extremely ferocious.

"What are you yelling about? How dare you give me attitude!" A slap landed on the Fire Dragon's Rabbit Lord, causing Fire Dragon to stagger slightly in pain.

It's obvious that Bai Doudou can understand the Fire Dragon's words. This is a gift of the Mink Tribe; some can understand the words of simple intelligent creatures, and Bai Doudou has this gift.

Unlike Ye Chen, who could only understand through his Observation Haki, the others only heard the roar.

Seeing the Fire Dragon lower its head in grievance, Bai Doudou said with satisfaction, "From now on, you're my little brother. You have to call me 'Big Brother,' understand?"

Bai Doudou stared with wide eyes, her expression full of threat and imposing manner.

"Eat it!"

Bai Doudou clapped her hands as she tossed the Devil Fruit directly into the Fire Dragon's mouth.

"Ugh, this tastes awful and smells awful, I'm going to throw up!"

His face turned a deep purplish-red, and the Fire Dragon suddenly struggled, gagging incessantly.

Suddenly, with a "pop," it shrank in the blink of an eye, its originally enormous body instantly transforming into the size of a sparrow.

Huh, why does my line of sight seem to be lower now?

Completely bewildered, the Fire Dragon slowly took flight, only to be startled when it suddenly saw a rabbit face approaching.

"I didn't expect it to change so much; it looks much better now. I was originally planning to just eat you if you misbehaved, but now I'm having second thoughts."

As soon as Bai Doudou finished speaking, the Fire Dragon trembled, and its originally tiny body instantly began to expand to ten meters, thirty meters, fifty meters, one hundred meters, two hundred meters. Its enormous body exuded a terrifying and ferocious aura, filling the entire research room.

All the guards around them stood there, Big Mouth, faces filled with terror, their legs trembling.

"Stop! Do you want to burst this place?" The more Bai Doudou looked at it, the more satisfied she became. She could already imagine herself standing on this clumsy dragon's head, swaggering around triumphantly.

It changed again in a flash, leaving the Fire Dragon somewhat bewildered, but then it became arrogant.

"Return to that tiny little thing from before."

Immediately afterwards, the Fire Dragon shrank to the size of a sparrow and flew into the air.

Not long after, the man and the dragon, munching on carrots, returned to Ye Chen's bedroom.

Looking at the Fire Dragon that had shrunk to the size of a sparrow, Ye Chen actually thought it looked pretty good, because it actually looked somewhat cute.

The Big Big Fruit, as the name suggests, is the ability to grow larger and change size. It is actually an extremely powerful ability. Because of this ability, as one grows larger, one's weight, body, and everything else will also enlarge and change. If the user wishes, they can retain their original physique or become lighter, and so on.

In other words, as you grow bigger, your weight, strength, and appearance will all change.

If this silly dragon had this talent, it could even develop the ability to enlarge or change the size of anything it touches. For example, a bullet could grow to the size of a house after being touched, and its weight and other characteristics would also change.

Strictly speaking, it's a pity that such a powerful Devil Fruit was eaten by this dragon, but Ye Chen didn't care.

Upon seeing Ye Chen, the Fire Dragon trembled slightly, for it was afraid of this human.

"Quickly call Big Brother!" Bai Doudou slapped the Fire Dragon and glared at him.

The "Big Brother Roar" was timid and hesitant, even his roar sounded so aggrieved.

Ye Chen's face darkened slightly, and he glared at Bai Doudou.

"Fire is my brother, and I'm his boss. In turn, my boss is my boss, so I'm his big brother. Don't worry, Fire, from now on, you'll live a life of luxury by following me."

Bai Doudou patted her chest and gave Fire Dragon a look that said, "You won't regret it."

As for the name "Fire," it was a name that Bai Doudou gave the Fire Dragon casually, and it didn't sound imposing at all.

Ye Chen didn't care much about how he addressed Bai Doudou. Strictly speaking, Bai Doudou was Ye Chen's pet, but Ye Chen didn't treat Bai Doudou as a pet. After spending a long time with him, they were no different from family.

Therefore, Ye Chen can tolerate Bai Doudou's various shortcomings. If she causes trouble, he will deal with it; if she suffers injustice, he will deal with it; no matter what Bai Doudou does, he will unconditionally protect her.

It wasn't just because Bai Doudou had saved Ye Chen before, but because from Ye Chen's perspective, Bai Doudou become indispensable. She filled the emptiness in his heart perfectly. Since coming into this world, Ye Chen had been lonely, and only Bai Doudou could make Ye Chen feel warm. It was like being abandoned by the world, and Bai Doudou was the only light.

Bai Doudou often does silly things, often makes Ye Chen, and sometimes they argue. It's clear that only family members would do this. Sometimes, bickering doesn't necessarily mean anything bad.

To put it another way, if a family is always harmonious and full of sibling affection, then it won't be long before that family falls apart.

Only when there are arguments and anger in life can a family truly live in harmony, because arguments are an essential seasoning.

Of course, there's a limit to this noise; otherwise, if it goes too far, it'll be disastrous.
