Shirahoshi took out a blue canister bearing a mermaid design and pressed it against her abdomen.
A flash of multicolored light passed, and a ring of white clouds appeared around Shirahoshi's waist. Her body floated off the ground, just as if she had used Bubble Coral.

Her reason was that those things looked too much like the Guardian's legs, and using them would feel very strange.
Afterward, the explosive propulsion device jointly proposed by Klee Meow and Jinx Meow, the Germa jet device proposed by Ai Haibara Meow, and the fish-tank tank device Xie Wen proposed on his second attempt were all rejected for various reasons.

As a result, apart from Shirahoshi and Robin, the only ones
