Chương 260: 259 Combination Skill
While Marco and the others have their own traits, their abilities are also very different. Fully integrating everyone's strengths is no easy task.
However, they are all very enthusiastic about this matter. Therefore, they have been thinking about this issue during this period of sailing on the sea.
Thinking about it when eating, and also thinking about it when sleeping. Basically, except for some special things, they will study this together every day.
On this particular day, Marco and the others gathered once more, this time with the intention of putting their plans into practice.
Marco transformed into a phoenix, flying into the air, while Jozu took on a diamond form, securing a specific position.
Charles Vane and Vista also made their preparations, each taking up positions in two different directions. Together, the four of them covered all directions.
First of all, they established a basic method of cooperation: starting with Charles Vane, all the skills of the others were aligned with his, and then merged.
"Is everyone ready?" Marco asked.
"Okay, no problem," they replied.
"Alright, Vane, let's begin" Marco instructed.
"Alright, this is the start"
Charles Vane declared, initiating the use of his Wind-Wind Fruit's ability.
They saw as Charles Vane slowly amassed a small whirlwind in the center of the four, reaching about the height of an average person. To facilitate the integration, Charles Vane didn't compress the power too much.
Charles Vane started to gradually subdue the whirlwind, while Marco released a sequence of small, particle-like flames.
The cyan flames from the phoenixes slowly attach to the small whirlwind, quickly spreading in every direction.
Before long, the small whirlwind transformed into a blue flame whirlwind.
"The first step was successful"
Charles Vane expressed a hint of satisfaction.
Typically, the collision of two moves only results in a powerful clash. To achieve a merger, precise mastery and subtle control of the techniques are necessary.
This precision added a lot of pressure on Charles Vane. After all, his whirlwind served as the foundation of the structure.
If he couldn't stabilize his whirlwind, others' techniques wouldn't successfully integrate with it. Currently, Charles Vane had successfully merged Marco's flames with his whirlwind.
This brought joy to Charles Vane, and now, the second step is about to begin.
"Jozu..." Marco called.
"Got it!"
Jozu assured, and then started building up strength. Soon, a diamond extended from Jozu's body, transforming whatever it touched into a texture resembling cotton cloth.
Jozu gradually enveloped the cyan whirlwind with his diamond. At the first moment of contact, a burst of energy emanated from the point where the two met.
An instantaneous burst of turbulent airflow occurred, with the powerful wind pressure extending to the surroundings.
"Hold steady!" Marco called out immediately.
"Damn it!" Jozu shouted, struggling a bit.
Compressing these diamonds to one side had already drained a considerable amount of Jozu's energy. This step was quite challenging, demanding precise control of the fruit's ability.
Furthermore, the consumption is continuous, placing significant demands on one's mental endurance. Therefore, Jozu faced considerable pressure during the integration.
Simultaneously, there's already a cyan flame attached to Vane's whirlwind, and maintaining the overall stability between Charles Vane and Marco also demands a substantial amount of energy.
In this scenario, the difficulty of ongoing integration will increase exponentially. Therefore, when attempting to continue the integration...
The small whirlwind suddenly burst out, instantly rolling Jozu's diamond into pieces. Simultaneously, a tremendous force erupted at the center.
This power instantly expanded and then spread, pushing Marco and the others back.
"Sigh, it's a shame, we were so close."
After the failure, Jozu pounded his fist in frustration.
"Don't worry, it's the first time. With this experience, it'll be better next time. Let's take a break for now,"
Marco reassured him.
Later, Marco and the others started analyzing their problem, starting with the issue of habit.
They are not accustomed to merging with the fruit power of others, so attempting a forced merge does feel somewhat unfamiliar.
"Well, let's first adapt to merging each other's powers, maybe that will accelerate the efficiency of the fusion"
Marco suggested.
In the following time, they initiated a two-on-two fusion: Marco and Charles Vane combined their powers, while Jozu and Vista fused their abilities.
Continuous integration allowed them to grow accustomed to each other's strengths, reducing the energy consumption and making it progressively easier to maintain stability.
After a prolonged period of adaptation, they started to switch partners: Marco and Vista merged forces, while Jozu and Charles Vane joined together.
After adapting to their new partners, they continued until all four became familiar with each other's powers.
At this point, they commenced the fusion experiment once more, with Charles Vane taking the lead in executing the technique.
Next up was Marco. This time, the attachment of Marco's cyan flames went more smoothly. By this point, Jozu also demonstrated a much higher level of proficiency.
Diamonds, resembling cotton cloth, delicately shrouded the whirlwind. This whirlwind now appeared like a layer of crystals, gleaming brightly in the sunlight.
"It worked!"
Marco exclaimed in surprise, surprises is evident in his voice
However, the matter is not over yet. This whirlwind possesses the power attributes of speed, defense, and recovery.
The whirlwind, now enveloped by this layer of diamond defense, has significantly enhanced its defensiveness.
Furthermore, as long as it doesn't face a one-time destructive attack, the whirlwind will continue to recover, leveraging the properties of the undead flame.
Ultimately, it lacked attack power, and this aspect was entrusted to Vista.
"Vista, it's up to you!" Charles Vane shouted.
"Don't worry, let's see if you can handle this." Vista agreed, then raised his swords in front of him with both hands.
"Dance of Roses!"
With a swing of Vista's double swords, dazzling rose petals fell from the sky, accompanied by invisible sword slash.
This sword slash entered from the bottom of the whirlwind and swiftly fused with it, making the whirlwind instantly become sharp.
They succeeded, and the techniques of Marco and the others seamlessly merged, maintaining stability.
"Finally succeeded"
Marco expressed surprise, and it seemed they didn't take much time to complete this step.
The rate of success surpassed their expectations, progressing much faster. This was attributed to the special training provided by Whitebeard at the beginning, making them much more proficient in their respective abilities.
"Come on, let's test the power of this technique!"
Marco cheered.
