Chapter 14: Good luck
"Jake Jake no Mi?"
"Jake Jake no Mi."
"...so you are a human jacket?"
"Yup."
"....."
The two rested and played around in the hotel and the Saobody Archipelago, and this time, Masa accompanied Carina in buying clothes as he read a book about navigation quietly.
As expected of this island, even if there was a place known as a lawless area, the other area was quite decent, and he could find many important books to enhance his knowledge of navigation, medicines, history, geography, and many others.
Still, considering his situation, he decided to learn navigation first, and at the same time, he had to say the power of three Masa made him able to learn everything fast, and his body also grew stronger and stronger, especially after he had devoured the user of Ton Ton no Mi.
When he thought about the original user of this Devil Fruit, Machvise, he thought that this guy was a clown. He knew that this might seem like an exaggeration, but this was the fact he got from this guy, especially when all the names of his moves had either 1,000 tons or even 10,000 tons in weight when the truth was that wasn't the case at all.
If the user of Ton Ton no Mi could really increase its weight to 10,000 tons, then he believed that user would already become one of the strongest!
More importantly, when one increases one's weight with this Devil Fruit, it makes it harder for them to move.
If he made an example, it was like how one carries a heavy thing and needs to move slowly to move.
So, the fact that Machivise shouted 1,000 or 10,000 tons was nothing but a lie!
If he wanted to make his fist into the 10,000-ton weight, his physical capability also needed to reach a certain standard, or else, he could only be like either Machvise or Mikita, who floated toward the sky and then dropped themselves toward their opponents.
However, a Devil Fruit ability was full of possibilities, and he might probably be able to develop the Ton Ton no Mi into an illusionary weight instead of a real weight so that way, while the damage he caused with this ability increased, the standard of physical ability that he needed to reach wasn't that much different.
Yet, in this world, whether he wanted it or not, physical ability was the core.
Even the Admirals of the Marines, who ate a Logia type of fruit, also needed to train their physical ability to strengthen their Devil Fruit abilities.
To become the strongest in this world, a strong physical ability was needed.
Masa knew that, but the improvement of physical ability wasn't easy, and it needed long, tough, bloody training, which was kind of troublesome, especially when he wanted to get stronger faster.
Fortunately, Jake Jake no Mi solved all of his troubles, but the problem was it wasn't easy to devour those strong people.
At the same time, he really felt that his decision to devour the Ton Ton no Mi was a bit hasty, especially when the number of Devil Fruits that he should be able to consume was only three.
While it might increase in the future, he could only consume three now, and as he had consumed two, he could only eat one more.
Masa had decided on the third fruit that he would eat, but then again, he hoped for the new Masa to appear so that he could eat more Devil Fruit.
Yet, Carina was dumbfounded when she learned her man ate a Jake Jake no Mi.
"Human jacket..."
Carina wondered how such a strange ability could become such a versatile ability, but then again, when she thought about Masa's IQ, she felt that it was normal. However, it was only Masa who was smart; the rest were all the same in his mind since, in her mind, most of the people in this world were idiots, and all of them had such low IQs that she could fool them like a toy.
"By the way, how long are you going to shop?"
Masa couldn't help but ask this question since this woman had spent 100 million of belly for shopping!
Damn, how wasteful!
One hundred million bellies could be used for many things, but this woman used it for clothes that she might not even wear in her life.
While Masa didn't care much since he didn't lack money as he had ransacked all the wealth in the lawless area, he felt a bit bored since all the clothes she had chosen were a bit conservative. He didn't mind this as she would wear them on the outside, but somehow, as a man, wasn't it natural of him to wish to see something bolder?
"...let's visit a different store, then."
Watching Carina's naughty smile, Masa nodded. "I saw there is a good underwear store nearby earlier."
"Pervert!" Carina blushed, but she didn't refuse him. "Okay, let's visit that place." Anyway, Masa toyed with her body many times, and she also loved the play, so why not?
More importantly, Masa wasn't stingy, which was why she loved him so much~!
Unfortunately, Carina couldn't keep all of his money, considering she didn't have a zipper space within her body like Masa's.
"I want to eat a Devil Fruit like yours too." Carina looked at Masa with watery eyes and asked like a spoiled baby, pressing her lewd body against his, tempting him as usual, "Is there a Devil Fruit that can give me the ability to keep things inside my body?"
"Hmm..." Masa thought for a moment and said, "There are many."
"Huh? Really?"
"Yeah." When Masa thought about all the Devil Fruits in this world, he knew that there were many Devil Fruits that could be used to keep items inside. "But I don't recommend it for you since it is too wasteful to eat a Devil Fruit just to keep items inside your body."
"Hmm... you are right."
Carina knew the cost of the power of the Devil Fruit would make her unable to swim, and if she traded her ability to swim for a meaningless ability, then she would cry without tears!
However, Carina had to say that this guy was amazing to develop a trash-like Devil Fruit into a unique power that made her jealous.
"Let's say you can eat a Devil Fruit; what will you eat?"
"Naturally, Suke Suke no Mi, or Gold Gold no Mi!"
Either becoming an invisible woman to become the best thief or controlling gold to become the richest.
Hearing her greedy ambition, Masa could only stare at this woman helplessly.
"Or, if possible, is there a Devil Fruit that is like yours?"
"Fuku Fuku no Mi, then."
"Fuku Fuku no Mi?"
"Yeah, you will become human clothing and make any clothes you wish. Moreover, you can also do something like what I do. Or rather, this Devil Fruit should be a better version of my Devil Fruit."
Yes, while Masa didn't like it compared to the Fuku Fuku no Mi, he knew himself that the Jake Jake no Mi was the lower version, but then again, no matter how powerful the Devil Fruit was, if the user was trash, then they would be trash no matter what.
"Fuku Fuku no Mi..." Carina murmured. "Isn't this the ultimate Devil Fruit?!"
Among all the clothes she bought, she didn't buy a jacket since Masa could use his ability to create a jacket, but if she ate a Fuku Fuku no Mi, then couldn't she create all the clothes she wished to wear?
More importantly, she could do all the things that Masa could do!
Damn, this was her dream Devil Fruit!
"Let's get it, then!"
Carina was sure that in the eyes of others, the Fuku Fuku no Mi was treated like trash, and with the low IQs of the people in this world, she believed that she could get this Devil Fruit.
"It isn't easy to get one. Everything is based on luck, and I think that there is a better Devil Fruit than the Fuku Fuku no Mi for you."
"Oh? What kind of a Devil Fruit is it?"
However, Masa couldn't answer Carina's question since a group of people stopped their steps.
"Give us all of your things and leave your woman with us!"
"....." Carina and Masa.
"Carina... how many again is it?"
"Ten? Or more? I forgot to count after ten..."
The two of them sighed helplessly, thinking about the number of times that they had been stopped by criminals, pirates, and other types of bad people. All of them were the same, wishing to get his money and Carina.
"Even though it has been ten or so... shouldn't they remember us already...? More importantly, it has been three days after the incident, right? Aren't there too many bad guys on this island?"
Masa thought that with how many people he had taken down and whose wealth was taken, they wouldn't make a move on him and Carina again, but he underestimated the situation of this world.
"Don't underestimate the stupidity of the people in this world..." Carina sighed, then smiled. "Anyway, we will get rich again~!"
Unlike Luffy, who would just beat up the evil guys and then continue with the adventure.
While Masa also beat up the guy, he also tortured the guy and robbed all of the wealth of the people who wanted to do a bad thing to him. Sometimes, he even separated their bodies with a zipper, burying them alive inside the giant mangrove trees on this island.
Carina also wasn't a virgin who would feel sorry toward those bad people, and even if Masa killed them, she said nothing since if she was caught by those people, what would her fate be then?
"They don't seem rich, though."
"You are right. They are poor..."
The two looked at the group of evil people before them and sighed helplessly, knowing that they were as good as paupers, considering their clothes and all.
"SHUT THE HELL UP!"
"WHAT ARE YOU TWO TALKING ABOUT?!"
"JUST BE OBEDIENT AND GIVE US YOUR EVERYTHING!"
"By the way, can I get the buy? He is so handsome..."
"You are right!
"..." Masa.
While Masa was speechless due to how handsome he was and that he often met this type of trouble, Carina laughed. Still, she knew that those groups of people were as good as over, and as expected, after they said those words, he directly beat all of them and took their everything.
If those people want to steal from others, then they should be prepared to be stolen from, too.
"What a bad luck..."
"Let's visit that underwear store then to improve your mood." Carina held his hand, then wrapped it around her white, round shoulders.
"..."
Masa looked at Carina and thought that while this woman was bad, she was good at making his mood better. "Okay." Still, he didn't refuse, but then, he realized that his good luck seemed to be drained, especially when he heard a voice that made him sick and annoyed from behind.
"Hmm... that woman is beautiful... make her into my wife."
"....." 2x
"Very well, I will make the preparations to take her to the Holy Land as your 10th wife."
"Good, send off the guy."
Whether Masa or Carina were angry and annoyed, thinking that someone really dared to cause trouble for them, but at the same time, there was this feeling that made them hesitate to turn, yet they still turned, and as expected, the last type of people they wanted to see was there.
While Masa didn't say anything, Carina's voice was trembling when she saw the person before her.
"World Noble..."
