🕑 Added 2024-02-09 16:06:25 +0000 UTC68. Copying the Amp Amp Fruit. Izou’s shock.
│3rd Person POV│
[Grand Line, New World, Beehive Island…]
"What's happening? Why is Wolf on the ground?"
Surveying the scene in front of him, Izou's pupils constricted as he stared at the unconscious form of Wolf on the ground, his eyes reflecting a mix of incredulity and disbelief.
After all, he just experienced Wolf’s terrifying strength with his body. In just a short span, how could he be defeated?
"Ron? Teach?"
Following that, Izo's gaze shifted between Ron and Teach, ultimately settling on Teach. "Teach, did you do this?"
While phrased as a question, it held an air of certainty. Given that Ron was occupied with healing him moments ago, it was implausible for him to swiftly eliminate Wolf.
"Yes, Commander Izou!" Teach admitted without reservation.
From the moment he opted to take action, certain capabilities of himself were bound to come to light.
Moreover, after years of fruitlessly staying in the shadows, he now wanted to try to come slightly into the limelight and actively search for the Dark Dark Fruit.
It was regrettable that when the Copy Copy Fruit was found by Thatch, Ron had consumed it without him being able to do anything.
Otherwise, he might have taken action against Thatch that day and claimed the fruit for himself.
Nevertheless, Teach didn’t want to reveal too much of his ability right away.
So, he explained the excuse he had already prepared beforehand, "To be honest, this guy was already at the end of his rope.
“When he attacked me while I was guarding Ron and you, his body violently spasmed and stopped for a second. I took the chance to deliver a fatal blow and defeat him in one go.
“I think this guy’s body couldn’t handle the strain of using his Devil Fruit beyond his limit.”
Upon hearing these words, Izou fell silent for a few moments.
He was inclined to accept this narrative, considering Wolf was on the verge of losing before his strength increased.
He may really have been pushing his limits to amplify his strength and defense by more than tenfold.
Furthermore, if Wolf had really been in an optimum state, he wouldn’t have bothered to dodge Ron’s previous attack.
While Izou was slightly doubtful, Teach's earnest demeanor and emotions compelled him to discard those doubts.
"No, it’s not the time to ponder useless things!"
Suddenly, Izou realized what Ron was doing while kneeling next to Wolf. He shouted, "Ron, what are you doing? Don't squander your limited quota on subpar Devil Fruits."
At that moment, Izou's expression underwent a drastic change.
He hurriedly approached Ron to stop him before he succeeded in copying.
While he couldn't ignore the fact that Wolf's Devil Fruit seemed promising, it was still a fruit that seemed unpredictable and unreliable.
If Ron wasted his limited copying opportunity needlessly, it would really be a huge waste.
After all, based on the information they had, Ron could only copy a total of three Devil Fruits in his lifetime.
Except for the initial Phoenix Fruit, almost all the Division Commanders wanted Ron to copy Whitebeard’s Tremor Tremor Fruit with the last copy chance reserved for a powerful Logia Devil Fruit.
But what was happening right now?
Wasting such a precious copy chance on an unknown Paramecia type seemed to be a huge mistake by Ron, considering his limited opportunities.
"Commander Izou!" Teach's expression shifted, and he swiftly positioned himself in front of Izo. "You can’t stop him now! Ron has already started copying, he can’t be interrupted now.
“This is a carefully considered decision. This guy's Devil Fruit is not ordinary. In a way, it's even more suited for Ron.
“This guy won’t be alive for long. If he dies and the Devil Fruit leaves his body, Ron will miss the chance to copy this Devil Fruit.”
More suitable for Ron? Raising his eyebrows, Izou looked at Teach and asked, "Is it comparable to Dad's Quake-Quake Fruit? Is it on par with powerful Logias?
"Teach, Ron only has three chances. How can you let him squander it like this? He already used one slot for copying the Phoenix Fruit because he really needed the boost provided by Mythical Zoan Type Devil Fruit. But now–”
"Commander Izou, please listen to me!" Teach interrupted Izou's rant and explained, "This guy's Devil Fruit is the Paramecia Type; Amp Amp Fruit.
“I've read about this Devil Fruit in the Devil Fruit illustration book. The last time this fruit had a user was about three hundred years ago.
“Its value is immense, even surpassing most Logias. Although Ron's excellent, I don’t think he could gain much with a Logia. Compared to incomplete Logias, this fruit's ability is the most suitable.
"After all, we all know that the copied Devil Fruit cannot awaken like the original. In my opinion, most unawakened Logias, to be honest, are not even as impressive as Ancient Zoan Type Devil Fruits in the New World."
Hearing this, Izou was slightly intrigued and he asked, "Amp Amp fruit?" Teach, tell me more about the Devil Fruit that appeared three hundred years ago!"
Izou wasn’t directly rejecting their choice now. He was gradually calming down.
"Alright!" Teach breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that Izou didn't persist in halting the process.
Teach started explaining, "Amp Amp Fruit is among the top-tier Paramecia Devil Fruits, such as the Tremor Tremor Fruit and the Float Float Fruit.
“Possessors of the Amp Amp Fruit can enhance all their attributes like speed, strength, physique, defense, vitality, and so on tenfold without even reaching 10% of their development potential.
“Then, every time the user develops their fruit by 10%, the maximum limit of amplification increases by an additional ten times.
“At full development to 100%, even without awakening, the user can increase all their attributes a hundredfold.
“In a sense, this Devil Fruit is a superior version of the Paramecia Type; More More Fruit. Moreover, More More Fruit’s power only works on external objects while the Amp Amp Fruit’s power only affects the user’s body."
Gulp——!!
After listening to Teach's explanation, Izou couldn't help but swallow hard.
Additional tenfold amplification each time the Devil Fruit development increased by 10% and a hundredfold at 100% development– it was a shocking and terrifying ability indeed.
Then, as if realizing something, he looked at the unconscious form of Wolf on the ground and muttered, "No wonder…! No wonder this guy was just a Vice Admiral before, but in the blink of an eye, he exploded with strength not inferior to a Quasi Admiral.
“Fortunately, this guy was dumb and didn’t focus on developing his Devil Fruit to the extreme, otherwise…"
