Chapter 110 – The Quiet Days at Sea and the Captain's "Totally Legitimate" Training Regimen
"The Munch-Munch Fruit lets the user turn anything they eat into a part of their body."
"They can also fuse swallowed objects inside themselves—including living things."
Two short sentences.
The girls instantly understood why Aike called it top-tier.
Use it right and it was broken.
The world was full of legendary weapons—like the three Ancient Weapons Aike had mentioned.
Swallow them and turn them from external tools into literal body parts?
Casual island-busting cannon fire, anyone?
Aike continued, "The fusion ability is what I value most."
Kuina and Tashigi looked confused.
Aike tapped their swords.
"Imagine fusing a natural-element fruit—like the Flame-Flame Fruit—with Kōsetsu or Shigure."
"Your blade would command fire."
"One swing—everything burns. Even the Twelve Supreme Grade swords couldn't compare."
The girls' eyes nearly popped out.
Combine Devil Fruits with weapons?!
They had never even considered the possibility.
But if it worked…
With the sheer variety of fruits, the creations would be endless.
Flaming swords. Flying ships. Laser-shooting guns…
And none of the sea-water weakness.
Multi-ability users, the backdoor edition.
Every gaze on Doyu turned burning hot.
Doyu looked at Aike with gratitude—and a brand-new layer of "slightly suspicious" devotion.
"Power is only as strong as the user makes it. Never forget development," Aike warned.
"Understood, Lord Aike!"
"I won't let you down!"
Doyu threw herself into training.
She even pestered Carina and Nojiko for tips.
Her strength—once crippled by the curse seal—began climbing fast.
Guren watched the whole thing and felt the fruit envy hit hard.
Aike already had plans for her—Crystal Release buffs, overcoming sound weakness.
As for Crocodile's Sand-Sand Fruit…
He glanced at Vivi, who was also staring longingly at the fruit.
Who better for it than a desert princess?
After leaving Drum Island,
the Libra returned to the calm, slightly boring rhythm of Grand Line sailing.
Kuina and Tashigi remained sword-obsessed.
With Aike's guidance, Kuina was one foot in the realm of true swordsmen—cutting iron was only a matter of time.
Tashigi… Same face, totally different talent.
Even with Aizen-level and Kojiro-level swordsmanship poured straight into her brain, she was still miles behind.
No hint of cutting iron yet.
At this rate, reclaiming famous blades from pirate hands would take decades.
Only one solution: Aike would have to "sacrifice" himself and transmit knowledge the direct way—body-fluid edition.
Totally for her growth. Definitely not because he wanted to.
He mentioned it once.
Got a blushing, furious dash away.
Sigh.
"Training incomplete. More effort required."
Aike shook his head dramatically, then turned to his two newest students—Yakumo and Hinata.
Proper lessons this time.
Yakumo, after flexing her genjutsu in the Naruto world, had officially begged to become his disciple.
She'd been pestering him daily for five-senses control tips.
