Have Ivan Deal with Fox
Fleet Admiral Sengoku Guo finished speaking, all the Vice Admiral in the meeting room turned their attention to Ivan.
Everyone was quite curious about this newly promoted Vice Admiral.
How will the White Dove, upholding Burning Justice, respond?
Ivan was also somewhat bewildered, never expecting that the fire would spread to him.
This is a very difficult problem, not to mention that it involves the death of Celestial Dragons and the reputation of the World Government.
Ivan pondered for a moment, then had an idea. He declared righteously, "The Fox is undoubtedly a wicked villain. We must increase the bounty on the Fox and capture him as soon as possible!"
"Very good." Sengoku nodded, "But we are now in a predicament."
The Shadow Garden is notoriously elusive; we can hardly even catch a trace of Fox.
Even if they were to be found by chance, the other party's strange spatial abilities would allow them to easily escape, making capture impossible.
Do you have any way to bring him to justice?
Ivan stared at Sengoku in disbelief, and everyone could see one thing in his eyes: You want me to catch Fox?
Faced with that gaze, Sengoku felt a little embarrassed, but he couldn't think of any other way, so he could only push the matter to Ivan to buy him some time to think, not expecting Ivan to actually come up with a solution.
But to his surprise, after a moment's thought, Ivan actually offered a solution. "Perhaps we can use Devil Fruit to lure the Shadow Garden!"
Sengoku's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with some surprise, "Tell me in detail."
Ivan got up, went to the whiteboard in front of him, and placed the photos of the Fox and the Tanuki together.
Facing a large group of Admiral and Vice Admiral, he appeared calm and confident, without any fear. "I believe I have some knowledge of Devil Fruit, and I can even develop the Press-Press Fruit to absorb life force and infuse it into the seed."
So, after carefully studying the information on the members of Shadow Garden, I unexpectedly discovered something incredible.
"What? Attracting life force? So this is where Vice Admiral Ivan's ability to control trees comes from?" Everyone exclaimed in surprise, paying even closer attention to Ivan.
Some of the less knowledgeable Vice Admiral generals questioned their close colleagues, "Can gravity really attract such an abstract form of energy as life force?"
His companion looked at him with an expression of utter disbelief. "Of course, Logia Devil Fruit have the highest minimum potential, Zoan Devil Fruit have the strongest physique, but in terms of pure ability, Paramecia Devil Fruit are the strongest."
Like the Op-Op Fruit, some users can only use it to cut wounds, but strong users, such as the recent rookie pirate Trafalgar Law, can develop the ability to Teleportation.
Among them, the Shichibukai Doflamingo was able to develop aerial techniques such as the "Sky Line" that allowed him to move through the air, and even had a technique called the "Birdcage."
Charlotte Katakuri can even turn herself into mochi, becoming a unique form of Elementalization. It's not surprising that Vice Admiral Ivan can develop the ability to attract life force.
What surprised me was that Vice Admiral Ivan is only 19 years old, yet he has already developed the advanced abilities of Devil Fruit and possesses such formidable vitality, capable of creating a forest in a short time!
Besides this Vice Admiral, everyone else also realized this.
A strong vitality undoubtedly represents a powerful physique.
This also means that Vice Admiral Ivan is not only a great swordsman, but also incredibly skilled in Taijutsu!
He truly deserves to be called a future Admiral!
Ivan's words attracted the attention of Sengoku, Garp, and the Three Admirals.
Aokiji looked up curiously and removed his eyepatch. "I admit you're quite skilled at developing Devil Fruit abilities, so what do you want to say?"
After all that buildup, Ivan finally revealed his plan. "I've discovered that the members of Shadow Garden all possess similar spatial abilities, and they have a wide range of skills. This is abnormal!"
"That's definitely not normal!" Akainu nodded in agreement; he had noticed this phenomenon long ago.
Ivan nodded to Akainu, glanced around, and said with an unusually serious expression, "Therefore, I suspect that the Shadow Garden's understanding of Devil Fruit may be beyond what ordinary people can imagine!"
They could very well use Devil Fruit to enhance themselves!
Upon hearing this, the meeting room immediately erupted in commotion, with the lieutenant Vice Admiral all expressing that this was impossible.
"That's absolutely impossible! A person can only eat one Devil Fruit!"
"That's right, anyone who eats a second Devil Fruit will definitely die; it has always been that way since ancient times!"
Faced with the doubts of the crowd, Ivan did not speak up to stop them. He believed that there must be people who would agree with him, such as Fleet Admiral Sengoku, who held a high position and knew more about the matter!
As expected, Sengoku suddenly stood up, a golden light even appearing on his body. "Silence!"
With a burst of Conqueror's Haki's Haki, black and red Inazuma silenced the chaotic sounds. Sengoku gestured to Ivan, "Vice Admiral Ivan, your analysis is excellent. Continue."
The others looked at Sengoku in disbelief, then at Ivan.
Judging from Fleet Admiral Sengoku's reaction, could it be that Vice Admiral Ivan's analysis was correct, and that someone could truly master multiple Devil Fruit abilities simultaneously?
Ivan thought to himself, "As expected, even Blackbeard can obtain two Devil Fruit abilities. This is not an isolated case; the World Government has also been studying it. He made the right bet!"
With the final plan in place, Ivan bluntly stated. "Although I don't know how they managed to concentrate multiple Devil Fruit abilities into one person, or even replicate Devil Fruit."
But I know that those who possess this ability must lack Devil Fruit for research. We can use Devil Fruit to attract their attention and lure them here!
The meeting room fell silent immediately after these words were spoken.
After a moment, Akainu was the first to speak, "I support Vice Admiral Ivan's decision!"
Aokiji nodded in agreement. "I agree too."
Sengoku was also very interested. Knowing many secrets, he knew that Ivan's plan was very likely to succeed.
But as Fleet Admiral, he had more to consider. "How should we capture them? Their special Teleportation ability is extremely difficult to deal with."
Ivan grinned, full of confidence, and said, "Perhaps we can use ground Seastone powder, mixed with seawater, to create a mist that will cover an area of one kilometer radius as soon as the Fox appears."
In this way, as long as the Fox doesn't possess Observation Haki Future Sight, it can be captured directly!
"I agree too!" Ivan successfully persuaded Sengoku.
"But how do we crush Seastone? That kind of stone is incredibly hard!" Kizaru, who had been paddling for a while, finally asked a question when he saw that he had no idea what to do.
At this moment, Ivan turned his gaze to Garp, who was watching intently and chewing on a senbei (rice cracker), and said with a smile, "This will require Vice Admiral Garp and Fleet Admiral Sengoku's efforts. I've heard that Conqueror's Haki Coating can destroy Seastone!"
