Chapter 562 - Trajectory

The work that Aizah usually had to deal with started to become slightly easier after Marceline and her maid joined the White Storm.

The maid ended up proving her abilities when it came to understanding certain things enough to be able to arrange everything and handling smaller delegated tasks that were more suited to a secretary position.

Marceline was kept busy with her new role, where she was doing whatever Aizah was doing as a temporary assistant until she would be promoted to a more permanent and official role.

Things were running a lot more efficiently compared to how it was previously, so there was more time for Aizah to do things she liked and to make time for things that she had not had much time to do.

When someone was at the head of any hierarchy, whether it was in business or something else, they would have more responsibilities and benefits, but there would be times when those people would be stuck dealing with what they had to deal with.

They would be stuck looking over documents and getting reports from others as they made decisions based on those types of things.

It would be quite rare for those types of people to be able to get a clear view of what went on inside their business or something else that they were the head of.

The only things Aizah could see beyond that role were the things that her other job as an idol let her see, but that was still quite limited.

Since the schedule had been freed up a little, Marceline suggested that they look into other things, which resulted in them leaving the main building where they were working.

They had set out on the seas once more on the way to one of the locations where there existed one of the other branches which handled one of the many businesses of the White Storm.

The ship they were on was almost at the destination when it suddenly came under attack.

Everyone was running around they they were making every preparation needed for the time when they would be in a conflict.

The cannonballs that were being fired had yet to reach the ship, but they were slowly getting closer.

Aizah's black eyes looked over everything calmly before turning toward Marceline. "You can take over. Try to let everyone remain calm when handling their duties."

She soon disappeared from where she was standing as she moved at a very fast speed.

A cannonball was flying toward the ship as its trajectory would cause it to put a hole through the side of it until a sudden change took place.

Aizah appeared right in front of it as if she were floating on a small cloud that appeared underneath her boots. "Time to finally test this."

The roller skates she used to create clouds to skate over had been modified for daily use, so she had a pair that looked like ordinary shoes that could be worn during work hours.

The speed at which it produced footholds had been amplified, so it allowed her to arrive in a decent position that others would usually struggle with.

A black layer of Armament Haki formed over her finger as she pointed it out toward the incoming cannonball. "Trajectory reversal and increase."

The moment that she touched the cannonball, no force could be felt from it as if all of the momentum that existed had no longer existed.

The cannonball suddenly moved away from where it was heading as it went back on the path it had previously travelled.

The Devil Fruit ability that Aizah had eaten was called the Trajectory Paramecia Devil Fruit.

It gave her the power of a trajectory human who could sense when things were on a direct trajectory toward her.

The other abilities included manipulating the trajectory of anything that she touched, which included being able to slow down or speed up the trajectory of something that was in motion.

Another capability that she possessed was to change the trajectory of something that she had already made contact with.

That capability extended to stopping and diverting anything that was already in motion or manipulating something else at the moment of making contact with it, while it was possible for her to control the trajectory of something she had touched previously when it was already in motion.

The power was created using the target Paramecia Devil Fruit and the Float Paramecia Devil Fruit as examples.

Like the Float Paramecia Devil Fruit, the Trajectory Devil Fruit worked only on her to affect the trajectory of her movements, but it did not work on other living beings.

It only worked on non-living inanimate objects and herself, which resulted in her moving much faster than usual and allowing her to stop the trajectory of an incoming cannonball before it hit the ship.

Unlike the Target Devil Fruit, the Trajectory Devil Fruit allowed more precise changes to the movements of those inanimate objects, but it did not allow for price targeting that would never miss.

The Trajectory Devil Fruit would not result in the touched object continuing to pursue a chosen target until it finally reached its target, or if something managed to get in front of it to stop it before it did.

Her Observation Haki played a large role in letting her sense the incoming dangers, but the trajectory Devil Fruit was what made it extremely accurate since she would know when something was moving on a trajectory toward her.

The usage of Armament Haki helped to protect her hand during the initial contact with what she was touching, so that she could better protect herself if she did not apply her power in time to reduce or stop the force that was coming toward her.

If it were someone unskilled in using such a power, then they would be less likely to take the risk of jumping in front of cannonballs, bullets and other projectiles.

If someone had a very weak body that could be harmed by those types of things, then it would be even more risky to attempt to do those types of things.

If there were other Devil Fruits that it resembled even a little, then it was the More Paramecia Devil Fruit, which could amplify the size and speed of any object that would have been touched.

The Trajectory may not have allowed for the object to be changed in size, but it let Aizah alter the speed.
