"Well, to put it accurately, it's that most hated and useless Devil Fruit..."
Fat Henry sighed, "For the sake of Lord Shano, I'll give you a demonstration."
Pa!
His figure blurred, swelling rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a gigantic ship. The ship's bow looked like the face of a chubby old man, speaking through gritted teeth:
"See that? It's a Paramecia-type, the Ship-Ship Fruit... I just can't understand it. How much of a twisted sense of humor must the gods who created the Devil Fruits have to come up with a fruit like this to torment people!"
A fruit that lets you transform into a ship to sail…
Except the Devil Fruit Users can't go into the sea...
"Puhahahaha!"
Nami, realizing what was happening, clutched her belly and rolled on the ground, laughing until tears started to fall. Though it sounded awful, she simply couldn't hold it in!
How unlucky can this guy get!
How can there be such a completely useless fruit...
Unlike her Flame-Flame Fruit, which is so useful and rare!
Pa!
"Anyway, all these years, just thinking about this lousy fruit makes me furious!"
The chubby old man returned to human form, patting his round belly with a somewhat annoyed expression, and he casually punched towards the sea beside him to vent.
Boom!
Fierce flames erupted from his fist, a water column tens of meters high shot into the sky, instantly evaporating into a massive vacuum space.
The scorching steam spread across the sea surface, and under such high temperatures, even the nearby seawater boiled for a moment.
"Ha—"
Nami suddenly stopped laughing, like a goose with its neck pinched.
...
After moving the supplies, the sky had already brightened.
Just as Shano was about to return to the training room, the small radio snail he had suddenly went "Blu-Blu" with a ring.
He took it out for a look.
The radio snail's head suddenly sprouted a furry Bear Ear Hat, looking quite cute, and its face turned into a kind expression, as if wearing glasses.
"Oh!"
Shano chuckled, "So it's Kuma! How's Bonney's illness? Has it been cured?"
"Yes, Lord Shano."
The radio snail chuckled heartily, obviously in a good mood, "Though it took some time, we've finally managed to completely rid her of it. I've already left with Bonney, and we're on the way now. All goes well, we should reach your side in four or five days."
"That's good!"
Shano had been a bit worried. If even Mansherry couldn't deal with the Cyan Jade Scale Disease, he was just about to be at his wit's end, considering spending five thousand points to see if he could help Bonney.
However, it seems this Heal-Heal Fruit's ability is even more reliable than he expected.
"How about Mansherry?" he asked with a smile, "Is that little one with you too? Does she want to come on my ship?"
The ship could still use a ship doctor!
"She and Bonney are both asleep."
The radio snail replied gently, "Looking at her earlier, she seemed a bit hesitant, wanting both to join you on adventures and to miss her father and her people. In any case, I plan to first take her to Dressrosa to reunite with her family, and if she makes a choice, I'll contact you."
"Alright, let's discuss it then."
Shano nodded, "Take care on the road."
After hanging up the call.
The Endgame was just setting sail from the shore, and with Old Henry waving them off, they continued on to the next "proper" island.
Shano changed into his close-fitting training gear and headed to the training room, when he suddenly remembered something and glanced at the system trade market.
As he expected.
With the arrival of the new month, the item mall had refreshed.
With over seventy thousand points, he could finally splurge a bit!
Shano immediately clicked in, eager to browse.
The result...
The first item made his face turn dark—
