The blue lightning flashed with dazzling arcs at this mont, shocking everyone's understanding present.
A fruit that controls lightning?!
The Rumble-Rumble Fruit that's been missing for centuries?!
No, this should just be an auxiliary ability of his fruit!
Just like Kaido's fruit, which can also produce fla-imbued attacks in its awakened state.
But to be honest, abilities like fire can be achieved even by people without Devil Fruits, as long as their physical skills are strong enough to generate flas through air friction.
As for lightning, aside from the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, only Charlotte Linlin's Soul-Soul Fruit can accomplish this.
But that's actually an alternative developnt thod requiring assistance from her creation Zeus to achieve.
Soone like Jake directly summoning lightning out of thin air is unprecedented!
Watching the still-crackling blue lightning arcs, Garp's palm darkened slightly as he reached out to touch it.
A tingling sensation coursed through his body, making him shiver slightly.
He then gave a thumbs-up to Sengoku and said.
"It's real lightning! And quite powerful too—at least more painful than when I touched that electric gate last ti."
Sengoku just glared at Garp before turning to Jake with curiosity.
"Jake, is the lightning ability sothing you developed?"
Jake didn't deny this, simply nodding before replying.
"After learning about the fruit I ate, I went to research the so-called existence of angels in books. The texts ntioned that angels have control over lightning, so out of curiosity, I tried it myself. To my surprise, I could actually summon lightning."
Upon hearing this, Aokiji scratched his head and said with a hint of speculation.
"If you really are the legendary angel, then your ability to control lightning makes logical sense. I recall angels are also said to govern human sins and such. Jake, can you do that as well?"
Before Jake could answer, Sengoku shot Aokiji a glare and interjected.
"Idiot, stories are just stories. If we followed every tale, then my Buddha Fruit should be able to exorcise spirits, shouldn't it?"
Aokiji chuckled and waved his hand dismissively, replying.
"I was just guessing, Fleet Admiral Sengoku. You're really strict, huh?"
At that mont, however, Jake spoke up timidly.
"Um... I think I can actually do that. Though I haven't developed it well, it does seem related to personal sins."
Hearing this, Garp imdiately burst into laughter at Sengoku's expense.
"Pfft—BWAHAHAHA! Sengoku, I've always said your fruit developnt was lacking! You've got the Buddha Fruit, yet all you can do is manipulate shockwaves and turn into a golden fatso. What kind of Buddha is that? HAHAHA! At the very least, you should be able to chant sutras or exorcise spirits right? HAHAHA!"
Sengoku's face darkened at Garp's mockery, veins bulging on his forehead, but he couldn't retort.
anwhile, Zephyr glanced at Borsalino.
Seeing the man unchanged expression, he realized Jake must have already demonstrated this ability to him.
Under Zephyr's stern gaze, Borsalino shrank slightly before Zephyr turned back to Jake and asked.
"Jake, you used the words 'I think' earlier. Are you uncertain about this ability? If it's safe to demonstrate, you can try it here. We might be able to offer so advice—after all, Sengoku also has a Mythical Zoan-type fruit like yours."
Jake nodded in response.
"It's not a particularly destructive ability. It just creates sothing like a gravity multiplier, but the effect varies based on the sins of the person affected. If I demonstrate it, please be prepared, sirs."
Garp grinned and said.
"You're quite the cheeky brat, aren't you? Don't worry, go ahead and use it. If I so much as budge today, I'll change my na to Monkey D. Garp!"
Sengoku shot Garp a sharp look before turning to Jake and saying firmly.
"Go ahead, Jake. Don't worry—no one here will have any problems."
With a nod, Jake activated his power.
A strange, almost imperceptible energy ripple emanated from him and in the next mont, everyone felt a weight pressing down on their shoulders.
This pressure was different from ordinary gravity—it was an eerie force that even Haki couldn't dispel.
"I willingly bear these sins."
As Jake's voice rang out, everyone instinctively felt the weight on their shoulders grow heavier and mories they had once refused to face began surfacing in their minds—Ohara, the God Valley, the deaths of loved ones...
Their most unbearable mories slowly erged from the depths of their consciousness at this mont.
The weight on their shoulders beca increasingly oppressive, affecting their willpower, stamina and ntal state with all-encompassing interference and erosion.
Then, in an instant, the weight dissipated.
Jake's voice continued.
"Purify!"
Like a sumr breeze, it swept away the burdenso weight from everyone, leaving behind a refreshing sense of relief.
Jake looked at the group before him and bowed slightly in apology.
"My sincerest apologies for using such an intrusive ability on all of you here."
Hearing this, Zephyr smiled and said, "There's no need to apologize, Jake. We asked you to do this. No one here blas you. But truly, what an incredible ability—to affect all of us simultaneously. Does this power really correlate with each person's sins?"
Jake replied uncertainly, "I can't give a definitive explanation about that. However, when I use this ability, I can clearly sense that the weight imposed on each of you differs. In fact, Instructor Zephyr, you bear the least amount of sin, while..."
At this point, Jake stopped speaking, deliberately avoiding eye contact with anyone to prevent misunderstandings.
Sengoku, however, spoke calmly, "The one with the heaviest sins should be , right? Jake, don't hesitate—just say it. This is an excellent ability."
"Yes, Fleet Admiral Sengoku."
"And what do you think about that?"
"It's only natural, well within expectations."
"Why?"
"If I were in your position, I imagine my burden would be twice as heavy."
Hearing Jake's words, Sengoku laughed.
He looked at Jake with kind eyes, filled with admiration.
