316 Poodle
"It doesn't feel any different from a little crocodile......" Luffy thought about the crocodile in the mountain of Windmill Village.
"There is no difference between these huge animals and ordinary animals in terms of appearance, the only difference is that they are very large." Guina said.
"The mouth of the banana crocodile is really powerful, and it can bite a pit ...... one bite," Guina said, saying the characteristics of the banana crocodile.
"What about that banana? Have you cut it down and tasted it, it looks so strange, and there is a banana on your head......"
"That's meat, so the taste is normal, although I haven't eaten ......"
Vivi was coming over to find Luffy for something, listening to the conversation between him and Guina for a while.
It was the banana crocodile, a particularly dangerous species, and the apex predator of Alabastan's Eco-King I, but they talked to it like an ordinary animal that could be hunted at will.
This is too much, so let's respect its social status:
But...... I don't know if I can do it......
Vivi tapped her toes on the ground and drew circles, not bothering Luffy and Guina to talk.
She also practiced the Six Postures with Uta to strengthen her body, but she never fought.
At the beginning, I was trained by Uta, and every time I returned to consciousness, I was very tired, but now I am much better.
I'm getting stronger, too.
"That's it, let's report back when the artificial rain boat is controlled." Guina said.
"Well, be careful, don't be seen by others, and if the ship is seen, just publicize the Navy's documents and say that it is doing something."
"Got it......"
Luffy hung up the phone and looked at Vivi, "Is there anything wrong with Vivi looking for me?" ”
Now, Uta is sleeping to replenish his strength, and the progress bar for water control is halfway through, and the data of two-thirds of the land has been collected.
"It's Ikalem who came to ask you about the poodle." Vivi said.
"That Devil Fruit weapon...... Luffy thought.
Together with the mayor of Clockwork Island, he made the weapon blueprints and gave them to the royal craftsmen of Alabastan for further progress.
After all, there are only such things as forging steel and splicing parts, and he doesn't need to spend more energy.
The inexplicable reverberation was felt by Luffy.
It's a strange sound, it's complicated, it's indistinct, it's inaudible.
"Vivi is beautiful today." Luffy listened strangely for a while and said.
"Huh? What, suddenly say this? Vivi took two steps back and asked cautiously.
"Strange... Am I doing something wrong? Luffy asked.
A very chaotic echo came from the side, and Luffy heard it, so it was Vivi's voice.
But what the sound represents, I don't know, it's all like a ball of velvet intertwined and knotted, making people scratch their heads.
"I feel disgusted by Vivi."
Have you done anything bad lately? Every day is normal, but last time, I saw three girls sleeping in the same bed, and I couldn't help but want to play a prank, and then I was Nami's licking dog.
Is it going too far, it should be, but ...... It's so exciting.
I didn't control it.
"There's no such thing......"
Vivi shook her head, "I won't hate Luffy, after all, Luffy is the hero who really saved Alabastan." Vivi said with a smile.
She was wearing a light blue light fluttering short skirt, which did not cinch her waist, and the skirt looked a little fat, but Weiwei put her hands behind her back, pressing the skirt, and the waistline was looming.
There is a hazy beauty.
"Then I'd like to hear Vivi call me brother."
"Brother... Brother~"
Vivi spoke softly, crimson creeping up her face and quickly disappearing.
"Hee-hee~"
Luffy smiled contentedly.
"Let's go find Nami, we need her to test that weapon."
It's Nami again.
Vivi thought inexplicably.
"Well, Nami, I guess I'm going to rest in the measuring room now."
The two walked side by side towards the measurement room, and Vivi's eyes lowered as she watched her hand shake off Luffy's hand.
What would it be like to hold hands......
Vivi thought about the question, and pushed Nami open the measuring room.
She was sleeping on her stomach on a topographical map of Alabastan, marked with many geographical lines, climates, and air pressures.
It seems that when the precipitation plan is completed, Nami will have a complete topographic map of Alabastan.
"That's amazing, it's more detailed than the royal map of Alabastan......" Vivi looked at the map and exclaimed deeply.
Luffy looked at Nami, who was sleeping lightly, took her hair and rubbed it on her cheek.
Nami's eyelids trembled, but she still didn't wake up, so Luffy shifted the place where her hair was rubbing to her neck.
After teasing for a while, Nami slowly opened her eyes and saw that it was Luffy playing with her hair.
"Luffy~" Nami got up angrily.
"It's very itchy!"
"Nami, that dog has been transformed, let's go and have a look." Luffy said.
"Dogs?" Nami looked at Luffy and thought it was a very big, disobedient perverted dog.
Dog man dog man!
"It's that weapon, what did you make it look like?"
Nami yawned.
"If it's completely designed, it should be a poodle, right?" Luffy said.
"Species have changed ......"
When they arrived at the weapons development site, they found that Nokigao was already watching the poodle.
There are also a lot of workers in the vicinity who are banging on the mechanical dogs for the final stability test.
"That's a big ......," Nami looked up at the giant robot in the shape of a lion.
It was completely transformed.
"It's six meters high, weighs about 120 tons, and has a built-in war room, which is about the size of a single-family house, and it is completely enough for us and some supplies." Luffy said.
The current dog is still in weapon mode, and you can see the mechanical transmission structure with clear water chestnut angles.
"Mr. Luffy, in strict accordance with the requirements on the drawings, this big guy was produced."
The person in charge of the project said to Luffy.
"Now let's test the performance."
The workers moved the scaffolding out of the way, and Luffy knocked on the poodle's leg.
They saw that the huge mechanical lion was gradually filled with flesh and blood, with the texture of an animal, and the edges and corners were not as sharp as before, and the face became softer.
"Snorr~"
The giant monster made an indeterminate sound, and then a large bubble dripped from its nose.
The whole body is like a dog, shaking wildly, the dog is in the rain, or if there is a problem, it will swing its body wildly, at a very high frequency.
If it was a purely mechanical structure before, it would definitely not be able to do this kind of high-frequency oscillation, but if it was a living thing, it would.
The six-meter-tall giant dog shook its body, and the bubbles around its nose slowly rose into the air.
"Thunder Bubbles!"
Nami looked at the bubble in shock and felt the amount of charge inside.
"Ha Qiu, Ha Qiu, Ha Qiu!"
The giant poodle didn't seem to be able to adjust to its new body, sneezing incessantly, and countless chaotic climate bubbles floated into the sky, converging into small dark clouds.
A bright yellow bolt of lightning slammed down on the floor like a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
Directly smashed out a piece of charred black.
"It's dangerous!!"
Nokigao, who had been observing the poodle up close, ran behind Nami with a roll.
"This guy...... It's really powerful, from cold wood and alloy, to flesh and blood......"
Luffy reached out and pinched his toes, feeling the warmth of flesh.
There is no doubt that this is a living thing.
"Can this guy create a cloud at will?" Nami asked.
"I don't know, this guy's ammunition depot is a very mysterious thing." Luffy said.
"It looks like it's making its own ammunition, probably...... In the same way that people pee, this is how it makes ammunition? ”
Luffy said uncertainly.
Devil Fruit weapons need to be eaten, and only animals that can eat can eat weapons and transform them into Devil Fruit weapons.
So, eating, drinking, and resting is a transformation mechanism?
Just like the ability person eats and drinks and replenishes his physical strength, he can create what is allowed within the scope of his ability at will.
Anyway, it's a matter of Devil Fruits, and he, as an ordinary person, can only guess.
"That's amazing!" Vivi sighed.
The poodle is no longer in its previous dachshund form.
Its legs are long and strong, supporting its massive body, its neck is thick with fuzz, its body is covered with hard, crocodile-like scales, and its nails are sharp like razor blades.
In the past, dogs were thin dogs, but now dogs are fierce beasts, and just looking at others can bring great deterrence.
"This weapon...... How do I use it? Nami asked Luffy curiously, with little stars twinkling in her eyes.
This is a super big dog, and it can also use climate bubbles, so it has a high compatibility with her.
"I don't know."
Luffy replied honestly.
"Huh? I don't know? Vivi looked at Luffy in shock.
"No, you're the designer of a weapon, how come you don't know how to adapt to it?" Nuoki asked.
"I don't know it, I can only design it, but who knows the specific use, just like a kitchen knife, the original intention is to cook, but if you use it to cut people, the designer can't stop it."
"So, I don't know how to drive this big guy......"
"I just 'exercised' it, so that it changed from a weak dachshund to a powerful dachshund lion form."
"I imagined that the poodle would protect you, but in order to prevent it from catching a cold and other misuse of power, I set up my weapon as a bubble ......," Luffy said.
"Here's a new question, how do we use this guy?"
Nami touched her chin.
A weapon, if it can't be used, is no different from waste.
"Would you like to try calling its name and then posing and saying fit?" Luffy egged on Nami to say.
"Don't, it's too shameful!" Nami quickly refused.
The poodle stopped sneezing and seemed to gradually adjust to its new body, tilting its head to look at Luffy, and when it heard the word merge, a red light flashed in its eyes.
Eat Luffy and Nami in one bite.
Luffy and Nami grunted down their esophagus and into the villa-shaped space inside.
The poodle's eyes are like windows, projecting what it sees into the villa, so that people inside the villa can clearly see the outside world.
Inside the villa there is an operating table with buttons written on it such as thunder, heat, cold, fog, sound, etc.
"What are these?" Nami pressed them one by one curiously.
"Trick Sheet."
"I don't know exactly how to play it, but it will be anomalized by the Devil Fruit." Luffy said.
As Nami pressed Ray's button, the poodle opened its mouth and spat out a thunderbolt.
Nami pressed the button and didn't let go, but she noticed that the charge in the ball was increasing, and it turned into a white sphere with static power.
"What's the sound?" Vivi pressed.
"I designed a big horn that can roar at others, after all, it's a big lion, and there has to be a lion's roar."
Luffy explained on the side.
As Vivi pressed it, the thunderball that had gathered in the poodle's mouth burst and emitted a sizzling electric sound, which was amplified by the sound and became very large.
"If it's fog, it's a smoke bomb, and it's for fun."
Nami pressed it, and the poodle spewed white smoke.
"It's fun!" Nami's eyes lit up, and she felt like she had figured out how to use the mecha.
"Shall we give it a name?" Nami said.
"What's it called?" Nuoki asked.
Nami thinks that the poodle evolved from the Dachshund, and has a ring of artificial fluff around its neck.
"Why don't we call it...... Velvet! ”
Nami confidently said the poodle's name.
The poodle purred and lay on the ground.
"Look, it loves the name!" Nami said happily.
"No, I don't feel the sound of joy at all......" Vivi and Notch shook their heads.
Luffy also wanted to test whether he could walk on the sea, so he asked the dog to walk towards the reservoir that had been prepared in advance.
The pond is a five-meter-wide and ten-meter-deep reservoir, and with the tonnage of a poodle, it should sink straight down.
But there is the existence of a super buoyancy board, and Luffy's idea is that it can float and stand on the water, no matter how bad it is, the sea water will not reach the soles of the feet.
The results of mathematical calculations can float.
The poodle stood at the edge of the pool and stopped, both the performance of the Devil Fruit and the performance of the weapon, which made it automatically take on the characteristics of water aversion.
But the master's order is absolute.
It still walked into the water with its hands outstretched.
"Wait, Luffy, we're going to just fall into the water, right?"
Nami asked.
This ton weighs in there.
"Let's see the situation first......" Luffy said.
They saw the poodle's first two paws sink into the water and then bounce back to the surface.
The poodle apparently noticed the strange situation and stepped into the water.
Its body sank suddenly, and then the dog's belly pressed against the water, and then slowly rebounded, only the part of its paw sank into the water.
The water level was a little above the top of the foot and neck, and the dog did not sink anymore.
"Very good, this is done, a new generation of Hailou Stone Weapons!"
Luffy announced that the basic performance test was a complete success!
