Uchiha Xin pulled out a few more strands of hair.
The Power of the Limit condensed it all.
Petal-like Luffy Nami, Tashigi, Vivi, Shyarly, and Shirahoshi.
The patterns are placed on their wrists, shoulders, and waists.
After the branding is completed, it also disappears into the skin.
Robin also left the same mark on his own body.
She activated the Float-Float Fruit.
All patterns are connected simultaneously.
Perona, Nami, Tashigi, Vivi, Shyarly, and Shirahoshi's bodies all left the ground together.
Robin then put away the Flower-Flower Fruit.
There are no petals.
There is no remote clone.
There was no additional energy expenditure.
The group remained suspended steadily in mid-air.
Uchiha Xin used his Power of the Limit to completely fix the pattern.
"From now on, these patterns will be permanent."
"As long as Robin possesses the Float-Float Fruit, you will be able to fly stably indefinitely."
Robin withdrew the power of the Float-Float Fruit.
Inside the conference room, everyone slowly landed.
Nami looked down at her wrist.
The petal-like patterns have blended into the skin, leaving no visible trace on the surface.
She tried to rekindle that connection.
The next moment, his body left the ground again.
"Without Robin actively controlling it?"
Nami flew forward a few meters, then turned around in mid-air.
I can decide the direction myself.
Robin nodded.
"The patterns keep you connected to the Float-Float Fruit."
"I only need to unlock your abilities, and you will be able to fly on your own."
Vivi also rose into the air.
She was a little unaccustomed to it at first.
After flying a few circles, the maneuver quickly stabilized.
"It has no wings, and it doesn't need Geppo."
"This feeling is really strange."
Shirahoshi had been holding back for a long time.
She flicked her fishtail and flew away from Uchiha Xin.
" Nami- neechan!"
"Sister Vivi!"
Let's go out and give it a try!
The three of them flew out of the conference room together.
Perona followed closely behind, carrying Kumashi.
Tashigi also picked up Shigure and went outside.
In the Divine Palace Square, Sky Island warriors were still training.
Hearing a voice from above, everyone looked up at the same time.
Shirahoshi flew overhead from the Divine Palace.
Nami and Vivi followed her on either side.
The three flew faster and faster, soon soaring into the clouds.
Not long after, they circled back from the other side.
"It really won't fall!"
Shirahoshi opened her arms.
"It's fine even if you don't wag your tail!"
Nami passed by her.
" Shirahoshi, let's see who flies to the Island Cloud first!"
"Good!"
Shirahoshi immediately accelerated.
Vivi wasn't lagging behind either.
The three of them swept over the plaza, creating a gust of wind that made many Sky Island warriors squint.
"They can all fly now?"
"You didn't use Geppo just now, did you?"
"Is this the power bestowed by God?"
Gan Fall looked up at it for a long time.
Shirahoshi and her friends have no wings, yet they fly faster than the Sky Island residents.
Moreover, it does not require the use of Waver.
This means that the 10,000-meter distance between Sky Island and Blue Sea is no longer an insurmountable obstacle.
Tashigi walked to the front of the training team.
"Continue training."
"Once you pass the assessment, you will also gain the ability to fly."
Hundreds of Sky Island warriors straightened up at the same time.
"Yes!"
The response echoed throughout the square.
Perona floated to Tashigi's side.
"Your words are far more useful than training commands."
"After they saw Shirahoshi away, they all wished they could rush to the Blue Sea immediately."
Tashigi looked up at the sky.
"If they stay on the Sky Island for training without real combat, it will be difficult for them to become true soldiers."
"The travel problem has now been resolved."
"It's time to let them see the open sea."
Perona put Kumashi down.
I'll go down first.
Tashigi turned to look at her.
Where are you going?
Blue Sea.
Perona pointed to her wrist.
"Sister Robin has already connected her flight ability to the pattern."
"Perfect timing to test the furthest distance."
"And gather intelligence while we're at it."
Although her Ghost Clone can act remotely, they cannot handle all matters in place of her original self.
Now the entire ocean is abuzz with talk of the Four Emperors and One Emperor.
The Navy is preparing for a public execution.
The Four Emperors have also begun to pay attention to Sky Island.
Perona had long wanted to visit Blue Sea herself.
Are you alone?
"It's more convenient to have one person."
Perona picked up Kumashi and put it back on the ground.
You stay here.
I can't take you this time.
Kumashi stood still, without saying a word.
Perona flew to the edge of the Divine Palace platform.
Beneath our feet lies a surging sea of clouds.
She used to stand here, only able to levitate briefly thanks to the Hollow-Hollow Fruit.
Continuing downwards, the capacity would be insufficient to support a distance of 10,000 meters.
But things are different now.
The connection between the patterns and the Float-Float Fruit has not weakened.
Perona took a step forward.
The body immediately left the Sky Island and flew downwards.
She was getting faster and faster.
The figure quickly passed through the clouds and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Tashigi watched her leave, then turned and headed towards the Divine Palace.
Inside the meeting room, Uchiha Xin was still there.
Robin sat at the table, continuing to familiarize himself with his newly acquired abilities.
Tashigi entered the room and went straight to Uchiha Xin.
I have a request.
"Explain."
"Let me lead the first group of Sky Island warriors to Fish-Man Island."
Uchiha Xin looked at her.
"Reason."
Their physiques have been fully enhanced.
"I've also mastered the basics of the Six Powers."
"Some of them have already reached the threshold of Haki presence."
Tashigi placed Shigure on the table.
"If you continue training in the square, your progress will slow down more and more."
"They need real combat experience."
Uchiha Xin did not immediately agree.
"The rebellion on Fish-Man Island has been quelled."
There are no suitable enemies there.
"We're not going to suppress Fish-Man Island."
Tashigi said:
Neptune pleads with us to rescue the captured Fish-Man and mermaids.
Fish-Man Island keeps records of missing persons.
"I can take some men there first to gather intelligence, and then use the leads to track down the slave traders."
"It can both save lives and allow Sky Island warriors to gain practical combat experience."
Robin stopped trying to control the papers floating in front of him.
"Slave traders are usually backed by a complete trade network."
"The arrest, transportation, detention, and auction—each step is handled by different personnel."
"Simply dealing with the superficial arrests won't save many lives."
Tashigi nodded.
"Therefore, I need Fish-Man Island to provide the records."
"We'll make our move once we've ascertained the route."
Uchiha Xin asked:
How many people are you planning to bring?
One hundred people.
"All were selected from the warriors who completed their upgrades earliest."
Tashigi replied:
"They have the longest training time and the best obedience."
Ordinary slave traders are no match for them.
"If I encounter a powerful opponent that I cannot handle, I will contact Sky Island immediately."
Uchiha Xin looked at Robin.
"You go with her."
Robin did not refuse.
"You want me to assist in investigating the slave trade routes?"
"Good."
"You're better at organizing intelligence than Tashigi."
"They know you too, they know you on Fish-Man Island."
