"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!"
Luffy's entire body was enveloped in thick white smoke, and his physique was constantly expanding, while his hair turned visibly white.
As the white smoke continued to pour out, Luffy's body seemed to be melting.
"Whoa! Luffy's melting!"
Chopper exclaimed in shock, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets. Everyone was equally stunned, unable to comprehend what was happening.
"Luffy, how do you feel now?"
Nami asked, her voice trembling.
"I feel like I can do anything!"
Luffy cheerfully swung his arms.
Then, to everyone's amazement, Luffy began to fly, circling around in the air freely.
Everyone was left dumbfounded, trying to make sense of the situation. But the real shocker was yet to come.
Luffy grabbed onto a cloud in the sky, which seemed to become solid in his grasp, and pulled it down, twisting it into a rope and using it as a jump rope while continuing to fly.
As everyone struggled to comprehend this, the screen's voice started to explain.
"In truth, there is no Rubber Fruit. The name 'Rubber Fruit' was a false name given by the World Government to hide the true power of this fruit. Its real name is the Mythical Zoan Human-Human Fruit - Nika Model."
"Nika was a warrior who liberated slaves centuries ago in the pirate world, known as the Sun God. He was said to lead slaves to freedom. Because Nika himself was a rubber man, eating the Nika Fruit grants the ability to become rubber. Upon awakening, it allows the user to turn anything into rubber and grants extraordinary vitality."
The crew of the Straw Hat Pirates was stunned upon hearing this explanation.
"Nika Fruit? That's the first I've heard of such a Devil Fruit."
Sanji couldn't process the information immediately.
Their goofy captain was now connected to some Sun God? The contrast was too much.
"Luffy is so amazing!"
Chopper, however, was quick to express his admiration.
"But why would the World Government hide the fruit's true name? What terrifying power does it have?"
Usopp was baffled.
"Centuries ago... could it be related to the Void Century?"
Robin, sharp as ever, made the connection, lost in thought.
"Hey! Luffy! What's going on with you? How do you feel?"
Zoro shouted towards the sky.
"I feel fantastic!"
Luffy responded, his eyes comically popping out of his head, reminiscent of cartoon characters.
"And I've awakened other powers too! I can hear many people's voices and even know your movements!"
Luffy lay leisurely in the sky, seemingly sensing his crewmates' every move without looking.
Then, his arms turned pitch black as he punched the sky, producing a tremendous noise.
Finally, black lightning crackled all over his body as his Conqueror's Haki erupted, sweeping the area.
Thanks to his Nika awakening, Luffy had also awakened all three types of Haki!
"Look, I can do this now!"
Luffy grabbed the Thousand Sunny and, pulling it like it was made of clay, twisted it into funny shapes.
"Hey! Stop messing with the ship!" Franky shouted in alarm.
"Sorry, sorry."
Luffy's transformation was visible to everyone across different worlds.
The ones with the most unpleasant expressions were at Marineford.
"Hey! Fleet Admiral, what's going on? What is this Nika? That kid has gotten even stronger!"
Akainu asked War Admiral Sengoku, his face dark with anger. Why hadn't the Marines known about this?
"I... I don't know."
Sengoku's eyes trembled. He hadn't expected the Rubber Fruit to have such a backstory. It seemed even he had been kept in the dark by the World Government.
"Send out orders to increase the Straw Hat bounty. They are growing too strong, we can't afford to underestimate them. We must deal with them as soon as possible."
Sengoku panted heavily as he spoke.
He already felt that the growth of the Straw Hat Pirates was surpassing his expectations. They might soon reach the level of the Four Emperors, which would make them even harder to deal with.
"Can we use the screen's position display to track down the Straw Hat Pirates?"
Sengoku glanced at the screen and asked.
"It's all just ocean. We can't tell their exact location. But if they're heading for the New World, they'll have to pass through the Sabaody Archipelago."
Kizaru pointed out an important detail.
"Then let's set up an ambush at the Sabaody Archipelago! We can't give them any room to grow. Capture them as soon as possible!"
Sengoku quickly issued the order.
"What about Garp?"
Akainu asked. Such a large-scale operation against Luffy might provoke Garp.
"I'll handle him. We'll have Kuzan join in too; his power will be useful."
Sengoku said, beginning to make arrangements to capture the Straw Hat Pirates as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, people from other worlds were making their comments.
Diana: "Sun God? Our Sun God is Apollo. Nika must be unique to the pirate world."
Strange: "Regardless, this power is too strange. It's more cartoonish than formidable."
Nick Fury: "Turning things into rubber, huh? Devil Fruits are truly powerful."
Shizune: "But the Eight Gates being given as a reward, that's an incredibly powerful technique. Opening each gate comes with a huge burden. It's said that opening all eight gates grants immense power but guarantees death."
Sanji: "That sounds terrifying. I'll have to be careful using it."
Tony Stark: "I'm more interested in Alchemy. If it can combine materials as long as the elements are the same, skipping complicated experimental steps, it could revolutionize technology! It's a boon for science!"
Chopper: "It's that amazing? I was just thinking of using it to make medicine."
Tony Stark: "Haha, using it for medicine is great, but imagine creating high-tech armor. With the right materials, you could build things that current technology can't even achieve!"
Franky: "You're right! The Plasma Cannon blueprint is extremely complicated. Maybe with Chopper's Alchemy, we can make it faster!"
Tony Stark: "Please describe the blueprint in detail! I want to develop it too."
Tony Stark was eyeing the screen of the pirate world with envy.
The Plasma Cannon was a revolutionary weapon, more terrifying than a nuclear bomb. His armor currently used lasers, but equipping it with a Plasma Cannon would make him unstoppable against any enemy.
