Chapter 109 – The Munch-Munch Fruit Gets Its First Taste Test
Nami had been drooling over Devil Fruits for ages.
Every time she sparred with Carina, those hurricane-level abilities made her green with envy.
Wave a hand → instant natural disaster. Elementalize → fly wherever she wanted. Strong and elegant.
Meanwhile Nami was stuck grinding physical training and Haki like a peasant.
The injustice!
So the second Aike pulled out a fruit, she pounced.
"…Nope."
Instant heartbreak.
"This is the Munch-Munch Fruit. Top-tier even among Paramecias."
"I was planning to give it to Doyu or Guren."
Nami deflated with a loud "Tch."
Aike rolled his eyes. "You can have it if you really want."
"I'll give the Rumble-Rumble Fruit to someone else then. Deal?"
"Absolutely not!"
Nami shook her head hard.
If Foxy got to be a walking disaster storm, she refused to settle for less.
Plus elementalization was non-negotiable.
She was still curious about the Munch-Munch Fruit, though.
The name obviously had something to do with eating.
Aike gave her a look and called Doyu and Guren over.
Kuina and Tashigi, fresh from sword practice, tagged along—purely out of curiosity.
Nojiko and Carina, the ship's only current fruit users, wanted to see how it stacked up.
Vivi watched quietly, a little envious. Alabasta's fall had taught her the hard way how much power mattered.
Izumi and Hikari weren't interested.
Kaya was busy sorting medical texts in her room.
"You two decide who gets it."
Aike left the choice to them.
The girls exchanged a glance.
Even with their original wills rewritten by the modified Kotoamatsukami, their personalities and friendship stayed intact.
They were still a mini-clique from the same old organization.
Guren, who already had Crystal Release, stepped back without hesitation.
The fruit went to Doyu—the former cursed Hyuga branch member.
"Fine by me."
Aike handed it over.
Doyu bit down without a second thought.
Instantly her face scrunched up as the infamous Devil Fruit taste hit.
Guren internally thanked her past self for yielding.
"One bite is enough. You don't have to finish it."
Aike pulled a spare sword from his inventory.
"Eat this."
Doyu took the blade.
Under everyone's stunned stares, her mouth stretched—wider, wider—until it was the size of a washbasin.
Then she swallowed the entire sword in one gulp.
Zero worry about the sharp edge cutting her insides.
"Now picture turning the swallowed sword into the most comfortable weapon part for you."
Doyu focused.
Her forearm instantly morphed into a perfect sword blade.
The rest of the arm stayed flesh—full flexibility preserved.
Physical sword-human unity achieved.
"Her arm turned into an actual sword?!"
Carina poked the blade-arm curiously.
Cold steel. Real.
"So the Munch-Munch Fruit lets you turn your body into anything you eat?"
Aike nodded.
