118. Awakening of Devil fruit
Robin gave an awkward laugh to that.
"Not everything is about at." Usopp shouted and so did Zoro and Sanji.
"Robin, can you tell us your problems? Is it the governnt? Did sothing happen?" Nami asked as she was concerned that marines or the governnt would co after them. Though she was ready to face the governnt with her friends, at the end she was still a little fearful so she was looking around.
Robin shook her denial and just looked at Luffy, who was eating at happily, said.
"Luffy, where did you eat the Gum Gum Fruit?"
"Huh!! I ate it accidently when Shanks ca to our ho island. I was hungry and saw the fruit. I tell you, this tasted horrible." Luffy replied reminiscing his past when he was thrown into the sea and later got rescued by Shanks.
Good old days!!
Ken now could guess what Robin was being bothered about. In the details of Luffy, she had probably seen the na of the fruit and it didn't match the na that Luffy had provided before. This confused her but she didn't know how to approach Luffy about it since he kind of idolized Shanks a bit.
"When I peeked through the details of your fruit it didn't say that your fruit was Gum Gum no Mi." Robin said. Everyone had a question mark over their head. Except for Ken, nobody could understand what Robin ant by that.
Luffy's power had always been about rubber. Though he was a ninja, his body had always been rubbery in its core so they didn't understand what Robin was going with it.
"What did you read?" Chopper asked as he was curious and so were the others.
"I read.. I read..."
"She read the fruit that was eaten by Luffy as Hito Hito no Mi- Model Nika. Am I right?" Ken answered what Robin wanted to say. He had always known of the Devil Fruit of Luffy but never bothered to reveal it because in order for Luffy to use it he would have to awaken it and it also ca with its own problems. Exhaustion being the primary reason why Ken didn't care.
Of course, now it was a different situation. Luffy had got his hands on a God and the Devil fruit would probably be able to work wonders in conjunction with his new found powers. Robin and others were surprised when Ken spoke of the Devil fruit.
Robin was sure that Ken didn't get to read what she had read so it only ant that Ken knew of it from the start.
"Hito Hito no Mi? Like mine?" Chopper asked as his devil fruit too was of the sa origin.
"There is no Gum Gum no Mi. The governnt had lied about this fruit as a long ti ago and they wanted to cover up a more dangerous Devil fruit that could threaten them once awakened. Luffy's Devil fruit was the one they had been searching for a long ti. For once they did get a hold of it until Shanks ca and botched the whole thing...."
".... When the Devil fruit was on its way to the governnt headquarters, Shanks raided the ship that was carrying it and stole the Devil fruit."
"Shanks stole this Devil Fruit from the governnt?"
"There is such a story behind this. But why don't I see anything special about this devil fruit."
"What does Model Nika an?"
"Nika... Nika could be referred to as soone who existed in lore. Soone who loved freedom and was free. It is said that there is always a smile on his face and he is fantasized among the prisoners as soone who would co and free them. This is a very popular lore and even in Impel Down, the place where the worst criminals live, they have passed on that lore since a long ti ago. Nika is also referred to as the Sun God."
Everyone's eyes were wide open when Ken spoke of Nika. They couldn't even believe what Ken just said. Even Luffy himself was a little shocked. Robin had heard of Nika too but never so much in detail.
"Is it so kind of legendary person?"
"No, probably mythical!"
"Ken, you an to say that Luffy has the powers of so called Nika? But he is just a rubber man." Nami asked.
"That fruit is a mythical zoan fruit. And it would need awakening for Luffy in order to maximise the actual power of the fruit. Awakening is sothing that could be associated with Devil fruits that had been mastered to the maximum. For example if soone awakened a Devil fruit of paracia, he or she would be able to change the surroundings according to the devil fruit. It is a very difficult thing and very few could achieve it."
"So you an to say that after Luffy awakens his devil fruit he could change the surroundings into rubber?"
"Technically, it should be like that but sadly Luffy's fruit is not based on rubber. The reason why the governnts fear this fruit is because once a person awakens this fruit, he could just make things out of imagination. If Luffy thinks he is wearing a sunglass, then a sunglass would appear before his eyes. If Luffy thinks that his enemy was made of rubber, then his enemy's body structure would be that like rubber." (Yes, both of the examples has happened in the manga)
Everyone now was looking at Luffy and had only one thought in their mind. This guy was becoming more and more like a monster. Imagining things and making them into reality? What the hell? Was the God character not enough? Nami and Usopp were having happy tears thinking that their captain was so powerful and they would always be saved. Chopper joined that group too.
"Ken, you always knew about this?" Luffy asked after finishing the at.
"Yes, I have always known but never bothered because you are still far away from awakening and it didn't matter anyways. "
