The idea of humans transforming into giants, something that only appeared in tokusatsu shows, would have been considered utterly absurd by anyone with a sound mind in the past. However, in this Superman society with its Quirk of "Gigantification" and "Gigantification Plus," it's no longer surprising for humans to grow to the size of giants of light.

However, this kind of Quirk change usually involves proportionally enlarging the original body, and it can only be maintained for a very short time, lasting for a maximum of less than half an hour.

However, the transformation from a human body into a sperm whale tens of meters long is unprecedented. In terms of Quirk theory, at least two Quirk are required to accomplish this transformation: one is to become a sperm whale the size of a human, and the other is to Gigantification. Both Quirk are indispensable.

However, most people only have one Quirk. Although Shoto Todoroki can use ice and fire, it is, in a sense, a Quirk called "Half-Cold Half-Hot." As far as Jilan knows, his Quirk is due to Endeavor 'Quirk marriage.

"Transformation" and "Gigantification" are both extremely rare Quirk, let alone having two completely unrelated Quirk at the same Quirk. At least, Jilan has never heard of a combination of parents with both of these Quirk.

Of course, although Jilan has a dual Quirk, he is a special case and has no reference value.

"Sperm whale... that guy still possesses that power, even though I took that thing off his neck..." The principal muttered to himself, lost in thought.

Something hanging around the neck...

Upon hearing the principal mention this word, Jilan's heart skipped a beat, and she seized the opportunity to ask, "Principal, do you know who Isana is? She seems to know you quite well, and she's very determined to defeat you."

The headmaster replied simply, "That guy... he's an enemy."

"Oh, I see... By the way, Director, what was that 'smell' he was talking about? He seemed to have found me by smell." Jilan deliberately sniffed her armpit. "Could it be that I somehow picked up the smell of rabbits?"

"Nonsense!" The headmistress jumped up as if she'd stepped on a trap, and gave Jilan a whack on the head. "I could never smell fishy! I bathe every day and get my fur trimmed every day!"

The headmaster hadn't used much force in his strike, and Jilan didn't feel much pain. He smiled sheepishly, "Oh, I see... So, does the headmaster have any clue about that 'smell'?"

"That's what he meant!" To prove his innocence, the headmaster reached through his red scarf and into his neck, pulling out a stone radish tied with a rope.

This is... something the zookeeper uses to turn the animals into humans!

Jilan still remembers that Oumagadoki, when the headmaster stood on the rabbit statue on the Statue of Statue of Liberty, took the stone carrot from the hand of the stone statue that should have been holding a torch, and blew the carrot like a trumpet. A large amount of white smoke that came out of the carrot instantly enveloped all the animals. When the animals rushed out of the smoke, they had turned into humanoid bodies!

"Director, isn't this something very important? Why are you showing it to me?" Jilan asked the director, suppressing her excitement.

Seeing the undisguised shock in Jilan's eyes, the headmaster understood that Jilan had remembered what it was. He chuckled and put his arm around Jilan's neck, "You're an unofficial member of our Oumagadoki, so it's no big deal for you to see something like this. Besides, this is the answer to your question."

As the headmaster spoke, he shook the stone carrot and, with a "poof," pulled open the carrot top to show Jilan its internal structure. The stone carrot had a simple structure: the inside was a vacuum, with two dazzling blue crystals, one large and one small, placed inside, separated by a mesh. Some fine powder was at the tip of the carrot, giving it a faintly melting appearance.

Jilan was very familiar with the object placed inside this stone radish. In fact, she had been dealing with it every day for the past two weeks, so there was no doubt that it was Ambergris, also known as "Raw Stone"!

"See clearly now? I'm taking it back." Even the usually carefree headmaster cherishes the Raw Stone. After letting Jilan glance at it a few times, he immediately put the lid back on and hung it around his neck.

"Director, are these things Isana's?" Jilan asked eagerly.

"Only the small piece is his, the big piece is mine." The headmaster put his hands behind his head and lay down on the sand dune, with Jilan sitting down beside him.

"Jilan, I think you've guessed it already. This is what transforms the animals." The zookeeper realized something was off after saying that and corrected herself, "No, no, to be precise, these things are used to provide magic. It's me who makes them transform. Only my Quirk can make the animals transform. Even if someone else got this thing, it wouldn't work for them."

Magic... mental power... energy... physical strength, are all actually names for the energy that originates from within the body and allows one 'Quirk to be released. Jilan understood what the headmaster meant. There is a huge energy source in the Raw Stone, and he uses the energy in the Raw Stone to release his Quirk.

Just like when Jilan fought the red-haired man in the tower on I-Island, he had a constant supply of energy in his body, so he could use his Quirk without expending his own physical strength. At that time, he had only used a small portion of the Stock Solution's energy and his body could not withstand it. If Dr. David had not created a drug that could degrade and evaporate the energy, he would have already died from excessive energy.

Jilan recalled Isana's state when she transformed, and now that he thought about it, her state during the transformation was similar to the state when the zookeeper transformed the animals.

Perhaps, Isana is the same; he possesses a massive Raw Stone within him, enough to sustain him in the form of a sperm whale for several years. Moreover, unlike Jilan, his physical body is strong enough to withstand the energy generated by the Raw Stone.

Jilan suppressed his excitement. At this moment, all the clues connected. He figured out the principles behind Isana and the headmaster's transformations, understood how to use the Raw Stone, and even had a vague guess about the purpose of the person behind the scenes.

At this moment, Jilan had more questions he wanted to ask the headmaster. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the headmaster's rabbit ears twitch, and then, with a whoosh, she sat up.

"Some troublemakers are coming!" the headmaster suddenly shouted.

Jilan was a little confused and was about to ask when suddenly, the once calm sea began to roar. The waves suddenly grew larger, which startled the passengers swimming and walking on the beach, and they hurriedly ran towards the sand.

At that moment, Jilan vaguely saw something appearing on the sea. He quickly grabbed the binoculars that the headmaster had thrown at his feet and looked at the sea!

A sharp black dagger is tearing through the sea and flying rapidly toward the Tottori Sand Dunes, and behind this dagger, a few more sparse daggers are following closely behind!
