Chapter 242: The Shadow Fruit's Wonders
Give us a ride......
What does this mean?
The Straw Hats looked at Maude with wide eyes.
"Why, don't you want to?"
Maude got up slowly, calmly looking at the straw hats who couldn't hide their surprise.
"I don't want to ...... Woohoo......"
Luffy, who had a tendon, was about to refuse on the spot, but halfway through his words, he was gagged by Usopp and Nami teaming up in time.
"Yes, yes!"
Then, Nami and Usopp, and even Bartolomeo, who had the least voice, made a decision for Luffy decisively.
Maude's strength is here, and having him with him all the way is tantamount to being escorted by his thighs.
Such a good thing sent to the door is only a fool who refuses.
That's right
Their captain is a fool!!
Nami and Usopp thought silently in their hearts as they tightened their grip on Luffy's mouth.
Sanji and Zoro glanced at Luffy, who was covered with the Great Silence Technique.
In fact, they also tend to let Maud go along.
After all, Klockdahl's forces were far superior to theirs, and there was a so-called Baroque workshop.
In this situation of disparity in strength, it is advantageous and disadvantageous to have such a strong Maude companion.
Weiwei, who is concerned about the future of the country, can't ask for this.
Ace glanced at Maude and didn't interfere too much.
He came here after receiving news that the Blackbeard Pirates were haunting Alabastan.
Meeting Luffy is more of a stop-by.
After confirming the movements of the Blackbeard Pirates, he will leave immediately, and naturally it is impossible to follow Luffy all the time.
And now that he has confirmed that Maude will not pose a threat to Luffy, he has a lot less to worry about.
In Luffy's whine, everyone agreed to Maude's proposal.
With Maud on the team, the happiest people are none other than the trio of Usopp, Nami, and Bartolomeo.
"Master, why did you suddenly 'fly' here?"
When the dust settled, Luffy and Ace's injuries were dealt with, Usopp raised the question in his heart.
"To save you."
Maud put away the shadow visor and turned her head to look at the corpse in the distance.
Hearing Maude's words, everyone was slightly stunned.
Now that I think about it, it is.
If Maud hadn't arrived in time, they would have ......
When they thought of the appearance of the rock giant that covered the sky and the sun, everyone's hearts still palpitated.
"Fortunately, Master is here......"
Usopp let out a long breath.
Everyone felt the same way, and aside from the previous bad episodes, even Luffy, who was nervous, was very grateful for Maude's assistance.
"It's really an idol, and even the rush is different from ordinary people!"
“……”
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched slightly, and Bartolomeo looked at Bartolomeo, whose face was full of starlight.
"You don't need to thank me, this matter was originally caused by me, so it is a natural result for me to come forward to solve it."
"Huh?"
Everyone was puzzled.
Until now, they thought that Pika was from the Baroque Workshop, so they didn't quite understand what Maude meant.
"The person who attacked you is actually one of the top cadres of the Seven Martial Seas Doflamingo, and Doflamingo has an enmity with me."
"Huh?!"
Hearing Maude's words, everyone was taken aback.
Maud then explains why Pika attacked them.
"No wonder the rock freak named Usopp as soon as he appeared."
"Speaking of which, since we entered the Great Passage, we have met several groups of people who have come to Usopp."
"yes, I almost thought Usopp was a plague god......"
"Hey, how do you talk!!" A roar from Usopp.
"Great, Usopp is not a plague god."
After the truth came out, the straw hat little cute thing Chopper patted his chest in fear.
Seeing Chopper's reaction, Usopp burst into tears.
"It's really worthy of being an idol, just let ...... casually"
"Bang bang ......!"
Everyone rushed up and punched a certain "really worthy of the blame" speechlessly.
Moments later,
Bartolomeo had a full head and looked pitiful.
"In other words, Bartolomeo is also one of the people who has come to 'find fault'."
Sauron struck Bartolomeo, who had a bruised nose and swollen face, with the hilt of his knife scratching the back of his head in embarrassment, but gasped in pain.
Maud glanced at Zoro's three sabers, a strange color flashing across her eyes.
In addition to the text of Kazumichi, the other two swords don't look very good, and they don't seem to be the third generation of Onitoru and Yukigo.
Could it be because of the butterfly effect that Zoro missed the opportunity to get three generations of Onitoru and Yukigo in Rogue Town?
After thinking about it, Maud subconsciously looked at the autumn water hanging from his waist.
I always feel ...... I'm sorry for Sauron.
When the rest was over, they prepared to set out for Juba.
"Bailey, turn into a 'chariot'."
Before setting off, Maud had no intention of walking.
Hearing this, Bailey nodded slightly, and his body transformed into a poor man's version of a tracked chariot loaded with rudimentary weapons at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The meaning of weapons is broad.
Strictly speaking, as long as it is a tool with offensive attributes, it can be called a weapon.
Therefore, whether it is a sword, a sword, an axe, or a chariot transformed by Bailey, they all belong to the category of weapons.
In other words, as long as the idea is clear enough, Bailey's weapon fruit ability is not limited to conventional swords, guns, swords, and axes.
Extending from this premise, if Bailey's ability proficiency is high enough, or if it awakens.
so
Theoretically, as long as there is a relevant design drawing, and Bailey can understand the various structures in the design drawing, he can change the things in the design drawing.
It can be a warship of the highest specification of the Navy, or it can be said that the Navy is still in the research stage.
Or even ...... The prototype of the ancient weapon Hades.
That being said, the weapon fruit has a drawback that is difficult to avoid.
That's – volume.
Like now......
The crowd watched in silence at the chariot that Bailey had transformed.
Or should I say it...... Toy cars.
When they were resting just now, through chatting, they had already met Bailey and Perona, and they also knew a little bit about Bailey and Perona's abilities.
Now seeing Maude conjure Bailey into a toy car that can barely carry Chopper, there is nothing but confusion or confusion.
And this is the source of the limit on the maximum number of weapon fruits - the size of the ability.
If it's a demon like Little Oz who eats the weapon fruit......
and a certain Devil Fruit that is still advancing into the body of a prisoner in the city......
Such a combination may be exactly what happened in the past.
Back to business.
Bailey's size is too small, and it is not a big problem to turn into a regular knife and gun.
But if it is a large weapon such as a tracked combat vehicle, it is obviously not proportional in terms of size.
In terms of practicality, it can also be said that it is useless.
Moreover, Bailey only conjured up the shell of a tracked combat vehicle, and did not even have the driving force.
However, Maude's Shadow Fruit ability can make up for these shortcomings.
Shadow flow, everything is simulated.
Maud infuses her own shadow into Bailey's shadow.
After a few moments, the size of the Bailey chariot increased at a rate visible to the naked eye.
"Can it still be like this?"
Under the gradually shocked gaze of everyone, the volume of the toy chariot that Bailey deformed is constantly multiplying!
In just five or six seconds, the vehicle had grown to a size that could carry everyone.
That's where the Shadow Fruit comes in.
The expressiveness in terms of auxiliary properties is amazing.
