Volume 1: Chapter 171 Item Compatibility, Despair Arrives Ahead of Schedule

Hearing Ichinose Honami's suggestion.

Kikyo Kushida quickly blinked, forcibly suppressing the overwhelming feeling of nausea.

"call......"

Almost instantly, thanks to the facial control she had honed over the years of disguising herself, she reverted to her usual gentle and healing angelic expression.

The speed of her change of expression left Ichinose, who was just about to pat her on the back to comfort her, speechless with astonishment.

Kikyo Kushida turned her head and saw Ichinose looking slightly stunned.

She thought the power of the Sweet-Sweet Fruit had already taken effect on her.

She pursed her lips, and a faint, shy smile unconsciously appeared on her face.

"Ichinose, what should I do next?"

To be fair, she was a "little angel" who was quite popular among all the boys in the school.

Kikyo Kushida thought, "Am I really a good match for this 'Sweet Fruit' that enhances my charm?"

If I borrow Ichinose's Teigu [Thousand Miles of Flight] and wear it again in the subsequent exams.

Just by using her natural charm to cosplay an angel, even without doing anything else, she could instantly petrify those disgusting creatures.

Kikyo Kushida was lost in her own fantasies.

However, Ichinose simply coughed awkwardly and asked seriously:

"Um, Kushida..."

"Do you feel an extra surge of energy within you right now?"

"Try guiding it, like practicing ripples, feeling the flow of life energy. Try to mobilize it..."

Ichinose patiently explained.

Kikyo Kushida obediently closed her eyes and tried to sense the power within her body, as she had instructed.

but......

Aside from the fact that I can clearly feel that I ate too much natto at noon and now my stomach is a little bloated.

I felt nothing else!

'What's going on?' Kikyo Kushida opened her eyes, her brows furrowed slightly.

Her narcissistic personality and her long-term repressed and disguised mental state are indeed very suitable for practicing Ripple.

However, due to her own physical condition, she was not as strong as Koenji Rokusuke and Ayanokoji Kiyotaka.

So over this period of time, her ripples have only just reached the beginner level.

But don't Devil Fruits grant superpowers simply by being eaten?

This doesn't require strenuous practice!

Why is there no response at all?!

Kikyo Kushida pondered for a moment, then subconsciously turned her head to look at her side...

That was Yotsuya Miko, who ate another Devil Fruit around the same time as her.

At this moment, Yotsuya Miko, though also feeling nauseous and uncomfortable from the excrement-like smell of the Devil Fruit, had her brows slightly furrowed.

But in Kushida's view, Miko seemed to be coated with a faint pink holy light!

Every smile, every frown, even the slightest furrow of her brow, was inexplicably captivating, making one want to protect her...

Kikyo Kushida opened her mouth, and a cruel answer instantly appeared in her mind.

Sakayanagi Arisu, who had been keeping a close eye on the situation, couldn't help but chuckle at the sight.

She rested her chin on her hand and teased softly:

"As expected, only the first person to eat a Devil Fruit can enjoy the benefits of its power... the remaining half is just utterly inedible garbage~"

"Oh dear, that's such a shame, Kushida-kun. You had to endure that disgusting smell for nothing."

The girl tilted her head slightly and added a conjecture: "However... if the person who ate the Devil Fruit really dies, her power might be passed down to the next person who eats it, who knows?"

Upon hearing this, Kikyo Kushida's face stiffened.

But she quickly put on a smile again and stepped aside.

Seeing that Kikyo Kushida was alright and didn't need help, Honami Ichinose moved closer to Miko Yotsuya, patting her back to help her catch her breath while nodding thoughtfully.

“What Sakayanagi-san said is indeed possible.”

She looked at Yotsuya Miko, who had recovered, and said, "By the way, Yotsuya-kun, you can try to petrify me by direct touch later."

"I spent S points in the Main God Space to upgrade the Sweet-Sweet Fruit, eliminating the requirement of being moved. I wonder if this kind of system enhancement will have the same effect on you, who has 'shared' the fruit's ability."

As she spoke, Ichinose, not wanting to neglect Kushida, took out her Ruby Staff item capsule and handed it to Kushida Kikyo.
