A total of eighteen Devil Fruits were presented, including not only various Ancient Zoan and powerful Paramecia types, but also four Logia type fruits that are usually rare and precious!

"Could there really be some kind of internal rule among the Celestial Dragons?"

"For example... because 'the world will eventually be submerged by the sea,' they are forbidden from eating Devil Fruits?"

The doubt that had flashed through V's mind resurfaced.

However, these things ultimately have little to do with him or the Straw Hat crew.

The final four Devil Fruits are:

Natural Series: Fungi Fruits;

Users with this ability can transform into all kinds of "fungi" substances, such as fungi, molds, and spores, and can freely generate and manipulate them, possessing the characteristics of microscopic penetration and macroscopic erosion.

Nature Series: Earth Fruit;

Users with this ability can transform into "earth materials" such as soil, sand, and rock layers, and manipulate and assimilate them at will to reshape the terrain and reorganize the materials.

Nature type: Frost Fruit;

Users with this ability can transform into "frost" and "cold air," generating and manipulating low-temperature fields, and creating ice crystals, frost, and deceleration fields by condensing water vapor.

Natural Type: Oxygen Fruit;

Users with this ability can transform into "oxygen" and related gases, precisely control the oxygen concentration in the air, and master the core abilities of life support and gas compression.

Chapter 192 The Transformation Begins

"It's really spectacular!"

V gazed at the four Logia-type Devil Fruits displayed last in the transparent safe and sighed sincerely.

The brain-computer interface, with its powerful analytical capabilities, has already analyzed the information from each fruit.

The Fungus Fruit, the Earth Fruit, the Frost Fruit, and the Oxygen Fruit—each one contains a powerful force capable of changing the course of a battle.

“The World Government has really shown its sincerity this time.” V pushed up his glasses, a glint of light flashing behind the lenses. “Each of these four Logia-type Devil Fruits has irreplaceable tactical value.”

The microscopic penetration and bio-erosion properties of the Fungus Fruit, the Earth Manipulation and Terrain Reshaping Ability of the Earth Fruit, the Low-Temperature Field Generation and Deceleration Field of the Frost Fruit, and the "strategic" ability of the Oxygen Fruit that can directly affect life maintenance and environmental gases...

"Just like the previous Paramecia-type Devil Fruits, none of the four Logia-type Devil Fruits provided by the World Government are useless."

V turned to look at the iceberg beside him, his tone becoming serious:

“Mr. Iceberg, Labs’s transformation plan must be launched immediately.”

"By the way, one of Golden Lion's subordinates is Dr. Indigo, who has extensive knowledge and research in biology. Before the modification, we can submit the plan to him for final verification."

Iceberg took a deep breath and nodded: "Received."

“However, Mr. V, Laboon is too large, and it simply cannot reach shallow waters…”

"Therefore, we must first build a suitable conversion base on the sea."

“The construction and transportation involved are also major issues.”

"Don't worry!"

V waved his hand, interrupting his concerns.

"Go find the Golden Lion; that old guy's abilities are for this kind of thing!"

Is Raab large?

It doesn't matter!

The Golden Lion merges with three small islands to form a ring-shaped floating island that surrounds Laboon.

In this way, not only can you have 360° all-around contact with Laboon's entire body, but you can also control the height of the island and carry out 3D transformation of Laboon.

As for transportation, there's even less to worry about.

Whose transport capacity can rival the Golden Lion's low-altitude flight?

All I can say is that the power of the Float-Float Fruit... is just too useful!

……

……

With the addition of Shiki the Golden Lion and Dr. Indigo, Laboon's transformation plan progressed exceptionally smoothly and rapidly.

Under V's instructions, Shiki once again demonstrated the extraordinary power of his legendary Float-Float Fruit.

This time, he was not fighting, but creating.

From the uninhabited islands surrounding Water Seven, Golden Lion precisely selected three structurally stable medium-sized rocky islands.

He hovered high in the air, his hands pressing down, and an invisible, floating force, like an unseen giant hand, gently peeled the three islands from the seabed.

Under his skillful manipulation, rocks and soil were reshaped and fitted together, and within half a day, a uniquely structured ring-shaped floating island had taken shape.

This circular island has a diameter of over 1,000 meters and a width of several hundred meters. It is suspended about 50 meters above the sea surface, with a huge hole in the center.

It's like a giant scaffolding custom-made for Raab, or a magnificent engineering theater suspended in the air.

This time, V didn't even send out too many Carrera crewmen from Iceberg.

The massive resources from Alabasta and the World Government enabled V to adopt a more efficient and controllable construction method—mechanization and automation.

In the heart of the circular island, a temporary yet technologically advanced "robot incubation factory" sprang up in just a few days.

The factory consists of a rapid-prototyping alloy frame and transparent polymer sheets. Inside, on the assembly line, various types of engineering robots are being continuously assembled.

Multi-joint precision assembly arm, responsible for delicate welding and installation operations;

Heavy-duty transport platforms are capable of lifting tons of special alloy plates;

Small flying units equipped with laser cutting and welding tools can flexibly navigate between complex structures;

There are also auxiliary models responsible for 3D scanning, real-time monitoring, and cleaning and maintenance.

The design blueprints for these robots all came from the Cybernetic Shop, and with modifications by Franky and Iceberg, they incorporated the material properties and energy systems of the One Piece world. Franky personally carried out the final adaptation and debugging and served as the overall commander.

"Super—!!!"

Franky stood in front of the factory's central control console, looking at the dense array of robot status indicator lights on the screen and the three-dimensional construction drawings of the Labs modification, and excitedly struck his signature pose.

The data interface on his metal arm is wirelessly connected to the control center, enabling him to direct the movement trajectory and operation process of each robot in real time.

"With these best buddies, efficiency will increase a hundredfold! No, a thousandfold!" Franky shouted excitedly into the communicator. "V! Your brain is simply a super arsenal and a treasure trove of technology!"

V's calm voice came through the communicator: "It's just about allocating resources reasonably."

"Frankie, the overall scheduling, emergency coordination, and robot maintenance are all yours."

Leave the professional tasks to the professionals.

Although Laboon's transformation was extremely important to the entire Straw Hat crew, they didn't really have much room to maneuver.

"Leave it to me!" Franky thumped his steely chest, his voice ringing out.

With everything ready, the core of the renovation project—Labu—was finally guided to the area beneath the circular island.

"Ow~"

It let out a long, expectant call and slowly swam into the hollow in the center of the circular island.

Its back rests close to the lower surface of the inner edge of the ring-shaped island, while its head and tail extend naturally from both sides of the ring-shaped structure.

Golden Lion used his Float-Float Fruit powers to precisely adjust the level and height of the ring-shaped island, ensuring that Laboon's massive body could float stably, with all parts easily accessible to the engineering equipment, while preventing the docile whale from feeling any discomfort or constraint.

Dr. Indigo was working intently in a makeshift biological laboratory set up on the edge of the atoll, wearing his signature blue and white striped suit and comically large shoes.

Before him unfolded a holographic projection of the "Complete Plan for the Biomechanical Modification of Labu," a document so detailed it was breathtaking, transmitted from V via brain-computer interface.

The plan encompasses dozens of subsystems: internal skeletal reinforcement, neural connection system, external composite armor, distributed energy core, modular weapon platform, life support and medical unit...

"I never imagined I'd be involved in a project like this in my lifetime... This idea of ​​seamlessly integrating biological tissues with mechanical creations... it's practically a redefinition of life forms..."

Indigo skimmed through the pages quickly, muttering to himself in his characteristic comical tone, but his eyes revealed the fervor and rigor typical of a scientist.

He was responsible for using his 20 years of experience in biological and intelligent research to conduct final checks and fine-tune biochemical parameters on all key aspects involving Lab's body, ensuring that the modifications would not cause any long-term health risks to Lab.

"Mr. V, the simulated signal test of the central nervous system bundle has passed. Labb's feedback is good, with no rejection reaction!" Indigo reported through the encrypted communication channel.

"receive."

With V's concise and clear answer, Labs's transformation plan was officially launched.

Chapter 193 Straw Hat Daily Life

In the blink of an eye, another half month has passed.

Labu's renovation plan proceeded exceptionally smoothly.

However, because its size is so enormous, comparable to a small island, even after more than ten days, the project is only about one-fifth complete.

This is mainly because the initial stages of the transformation were fraught with difficulties, and many projects needed to be carried out carefully under Dr. Indigo's strict supervision to ensure that Labu's body would not experience any rejection or abnormal reactions.

Fortunately, the robotics engineering team led by Franky gradually matured and became more cohesive during this period.

From initial unfamiliarity with working on the surface of a massive whale to now being able to skillfully direct various robots to carry out collaborative construction, the efficiency and safety of the entire transformation process have been significantly improved.

Although the current progress seems slow, the team has accumulated valuable experience and established standardized work modules, which will significantly shorten the time required for subsequent projects.

Meanwhile, the Straw Hat crew was not idle either.

The 18 Devil Fruits obtained from the World Government have now been converted into Devil Badges by V.

It's worth mentioning that...

In the end, he still made Sanji eat the Speed-Speed ​​Fruit, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit.

Meanwhile, on a deserted island in the sea near Water Seven, the Straw Hat crew is experiencing a completely different kind of "lively" daily life.

"Rubber rubber—white pistol!"

In the center of the training ground, Luffy's white fist in Gear 5, crackling with leaping black and red lightning, slammed down towards a golden trajectory in mid-air that was so fast it left only a blur.

The ground cracked from the impact, and the shockwaves sent Usopp and Chopper, who were watching the battle, flying backward.

But in the fraction of a second before the fist landed, that golden afterimage suddenly veered and accelerated in a manner that almost defied the laws of physics—
