Chapitre 129: [128] Revealing Rewards[2]
[2100 Words]
-----------------
With the new addition to the "Devil Fruit Extraction" feature, multiple messages containing information about each fruit laid out on the wooden table appeared.
---------------------------------------
-¶ Name: Tremor-Tremor Fruit - (Gura Gura no Mi).
-¶ Type: Paramecia.
-¶ Description: A pale white fruit with dark blue spots, pulsing as if a coming earthquake. This fruit grants its user the ability to create devastating quakes, capable of literally destroying the world.
-¶ Abilities: Massive structural destruction, generating seismic waves that can shatter the earth, ships, and even split the sea. There's a chance to destroy islands and tectonic plates after awakening.
-¶ Rating: ★★★★★ (Top-tier fruit).
---------------------------------------
'A top-tier fruit... tectonic plate destruction!' Ren inhaled sharply upon reading the system's description. This fruit truly lived up to its reputation as a world-destroying power.
But the question now was, who should he give this fruit to? Should he eat it himself? What if he did, and a more powerful or valuable fruit appeared later? Could he remove it thanks to the new feature?
Ren hesitated for a moment, glancing at his crew. Nami was bickering with Nojiko, who was intentionally teasing her, while Robin watched them with a resigned expression. Lila and Vivi were chatting with Kalifa, trying to strengthen their bonds, while Zala and Mikita were greeting Bell-mere, who had just entered the house. Lastly, his eyes landed on Kaya, who was focused on reading a medical book, serious despite the noise around her.
'Nami is doing well with the Thunder Fruit, and Nojiko is developing new techniques with the Bomb Fruit... As for Robin, I can change her Devil Fruit later. Mikita needs a stronger fruit, but the Tremor Fruit doesn't suit her style. The rest... well, there are better-suited fruits for them.'
Ren's mind worked quickly, cycling through numerous thoughts in just a fraction of a second. Not only had his body become stronger, but his mind had also undergone significant changes thanks to the evolution of his Haki. He felt like he could fight for a week without needing sleep.
Returning to the matter at hand, Ren held the pale fruit, feeling the immense power contained within it.
He took a deep breath, clearing his mind and...
*Bite!*
He ate the fruit without hesitation. There was no awful taste; it tasted like the finest peaches.
The crew stopped chatting upon hearing the sound of chewing, turning their eyes to Ren with surprise.
"The captain is eating a Devil Fruit!" Nami exclaimed excitedly, followed by a series of reactions.
"Let's see what fruit he ate!" Nojiko, just like her sister, was excited.
Even Kaya, who had been focused on her book, paused and looked at Ren with curiosity.
She wasn't the only curious one—everyone in the house, including Bell-mere, was eager to know which fruit Ren had eaten.
Within seconds, the space Ren had occupied alone was now filled with beautiful women.
Ren opened his eyes after finishing absorbing the new power flowing through his veins. He relished the euphoric feeling of growing stronger every time.
"The captain's eyes... they look different..." Robin whispered quietly, but her voice was audible to everyone. They all stared at his eyes, which seemed to glow with a white light, full of power and majesty.
"Do you want to know which fruit I ate?" Ren asked the women gathered around him.
"Yes!" they all replied. Even the beautiful Bell-mere, different from her previous self, nodded her head, clearly curious.
"Unfortunately, I can't test its power here because that would destroy this house... and maybe this entire island..." Ren sighed in frustration.
The women were shocked by his words, and Kalifa asked in a professional tone, "Is the fruit that powerful?"
Ren looked at her gently, a stark contrast to the cold gaze he had given her earlier when he threatened her with a gun to her chest. He had noticed Kalifa's loyalty growing since she entered the dimension, so his attitude toward her had softened.
He didn't make her wait long and replied, "That's right... Many people claim that it holds the power to destroy the world, after all." His voice was filled with hidden amusement.
"Destroy the world?!" Zala exclaimed in surprise, and Robin, who had been calm, suddenly had a glint in her eyes as she said, "You mean... you ate Whitebeard's former fruit! The Tremor-Tremor Fruit?!"
"Bingo." Ren smiled at her, making Robin feel pleased, though she hid it well beneath her cold, beautiful face.
"The Tremor-Tremor Fruit... I can't wait to see the captain use it in battle," Mikita said, looking at Ren with excitement.
"Well, maybe that'll happen soon, who knows." Ren answered mysteriously, leaving them to their thoughts, then refocused on the fruits still laid out on the table.
"By the way, I have some interesting fruits here. I'll see which one suits you best and give it to you."
Ren's words caught the girls' attention, but individuals like Mikita, Robin, and Zala quickly sighed with sadness.
Ren knew what they were thinking, so he decided to reveal his ability to change their Devil Fruits without needing to kill them, which brought them joy.
But they weren't shocked.
Isn't it tiring to be surprised every time Ren reveals some sort of miracle?
I mean, there were so many things that amazed them, to the point they were already numb: resurrection, Haki scrolls, Rokushiki techniques, extracting Devil Fruits that resist seawater and Seastone, and even removing the horrible taste...
And there's a chance this list of miracles might grow even longer.
Even Kalifa, who had just officially joined the crew, could no longer be surprised. She hid her thoughts, thinking: 'Who exactly is Captain Ren?' and sighed with a faint smile on her cold face.
'I guess I'll never find the answer to that question, huh.'
Back to Ren, he began reading the next fruit's information.
---------------------------------------
-¶ Name: Emotions- Emotions Fruit -(Kimochi Kimochi no Mi)
-¶ Type: Paramecia
-¶ Description: A pineapple-shaped fruit with vibrant colors, ranging from red to orange, as if it harbored volatile, powerful emotions.
-¶ Abilities: It allows the user to slightly influence others' emotions, depending on the user's strength. It can stir excitement, fear, or anger in their hearts. This fruit is particularly useful in psychological warfare and distracting opponents during battles.
-¶ Rating: ★★★★
---------------------------------------
Ren explained the fruit's abilities to the girls, then gave them a few moments to think, but none of them were particularly interested.
"This doesn't suit my style," Zala said after some thought.
The rest of the girls nodded in silent agreement, but Ren noticed someone who seemed to be staring at the fruit with desire.
Thanks to the evolution of his Observation Haki, Ren had become sensitive to people's desires and emotions, so he didn't miss this subtle movement.
"Hey, Bell-mere, are you interested in this fruit?" His voice startled Bell-mere, who had been lost in her thoughts, and it caught the attention of Nami, Nojiko, and the others.
"Do you want to eat a Devil Fruit, Bell-mere?" Nami asked in surprise.
"Well, it wouldn't be bad for Bell-mere to have some strength to defend herself," Nojiko agreed with Bell-mere's desire.
"Yeah...But...I'm not part of the crew," Bell-mere said, slightly embarrassed, a contrast to her usually fiery and enthusiastic personality.
Upon hearing this, Nami and Nojiko turned to Ren, but to their surprise, he was already holding the fruit and tossing it to Bell-mere, who quickly caught it.
"It doesn't matter whether you're part of the crew or not. If you want it, just take it." He smiled warmly at her, causing her heart to skip a beat and a slight blush to appear on her beautiful face.
"Fufufufu..." Nojiko chuckled quietly at the scene, realizing that Bell-mere might...
Nami, too, had some thoughts in her mind.
As for Bell-mere, she quickly suppressed her embarrassment and smiled brightly. "Thank you, Ren, for this gift. Since you're offering it, I won't be stubborn!" Right after saying this, she ate the fruit, and since it didn't taste terrible, she made sure to finish it all.
Nami, Nojiko, and the rest of the girls laughed at the scene while Ren continued inspecting the other fruits.
---------------------------------------
-¶ Name: Paper-Paper Fruit - (Kami Kami no Mi)
-¶ Type: Logia.
-¶ Description: A pure white fruit with colorful spots, its surface smooth like a work of art.
-¶ Abilities: It allows the user to transform their body into paper, becoming intangible to regular attacks and bullets. The user can also create paper wings and fly freely through the sky, gaining speed and agility. Additionally, the paper can be used as a weapon to cut or launch long-range attacks.
-¶ Rating: ★★★★☆
---------------------------------------
'A fruit nearing top-tier (4,5 Star)Status... Wait, Logia? Isn't it Paramecia?'
[Author's Note: An empty star (☆) represents half a star.]
[Master, this fruit isn't recorded in the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia, so you only assumed it was Paramecia.]
"..."
Ren couldn't find anything to refute, so he quickly changed the subject and explained the fruit's abilities to the girls.
"I want it."
Mikita was the first to speak. Ren looked at her and thought deeply.
'Mikita's Haki is strong, but her Devil Fruit is weak compared to the monsters in the New World... But that means her fighting style will change.' Many thoughts crossed his mind before he asked Mikita, who was looking at him eagerly.
"Are you sure? This means your fighting style might change."
"No problem, Captain," she responded without hesitation, then continued, "I have some ideas on how to develop this Devil Fruit. I won't lose the ability to fly; in fact, I'll be able to fly faster and in any direction I choose, unaffected by wind or storms. Plus, my current fruit has a fatal weakness, where my weight drops to 1 kilogram..." Mikita kept talking, her excitement for the fruit evident.
"It's yours," Ren was convinced by Mikita's words. Even if he hadn't been, he would still grant her wish. He could always remove it later if she ever wanted, though he doubted that she would.
"Alright, come here so I can remove your current Devil Fruit powers." Ren smirked mischievously and motioned for her to sit with him on the couch.
Mikita was puzzled by his sly smile, but she complied and sat beside him.
'Miss System, remove Mikita's Devil Fruit powers.'
[Understood, Master. Would you like to display the process for the girls or perform it discreetly?] Miss System asked, but Ren didn't hesitate and chose the first option.
Under the curious gazes of the girls, a yellow energy began to radiate from Mikita's body. She was caught off guard by what was happening, and the yellow energy quickly condensed, forming a Devil Fruit that floated in mid-air.
"Wow..." Mikita murmured in awe.
"What an incredible Magic!" Kalifa muttered. Although she had heard about Ren's abilities, witnessing them firsthand was a different experience entirely.
The rest of the girls shared similar reactions.
"Mikita, how are you feeling?" Ren asked, more concerned with her condition than anything else.
"I feel like I've lost something that I've been used to for a long time... It's strange and a bit uncomfortable..." Mikita muttered, her voice slightly dazed. But soon after, she heard Ren's reassuring words: "That's normal. You've lost the power that's been with you for years. Don't worry. Here, eat this."
He smiled at her, and to Mikita's surprise, Ren pulled out a plate, a kitchen knife, and a fork. He sliced the white Devil Fruit into small, bite-sized pieces and pierced one with the fork.
Mikita gave him a strange look as he did all of this, while the rest of the crew quietly chuckled, knowing what was coming next.
"Say ah~" Ren grinned playfully as he held the fork close to her mouth, ready to feed her.
"C-Captain! I can eat it myself... you know..." Mikita stammered, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment.
"Ah! C-Captain, w-what are you doing..." Mikita's embarrassment deepened when Ren pulled her into his lap. She could feel his firm, strong body against hers... It was a wonderful feeling.
"Open your mouth, Mikita. Let your captain feed you." Ren grinned, feeling her soft body against him, which tried to stir his primal instincts. He restrained himself and gently pushed the fork into her mouth.
"Amm?!" Mikita wanted to say something, but her mouth was closed. Blushing, and under the amused gazes of the other girls, who seemed to be silently laughing at her, she chewed the piece of fruit and swallowed it, soon feeling the new power coursing through her veins.
she felt The Logia powers in her body!
