One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

The specific power consumption depends on the strength of the loaded template.

[Currently held template: Zapdos LV.50.]

"Free template!? What does that mean!?"

Red clicked on the [Zetzart] icon on the template, puzzled.

In an instant, a familiar yet unfamiliar information interface jumped from the machine's screen to Crimson's eyes.

[Template: Zapdos]

[Personality: Impulsive]

[Attributes: Electric, Flight]

【Characteristic: Sense of oppression】

……

"This...this is!?"

Looking at the information template that appeared before him, a feeling of divine inspiration instantly welled up in Chi Hong's heart.

He subconsciously stretched out his palm, and his gaze followed.

With a thought from the crimson figure, the originally slender five fingers suddenly transformed into four sharp bird toes.

Brilliant lightning followed, blooming in his eerie palm, at his mercy!

"Is this... the power of freedom!?"

Crimson murmured softly, then its eyes flashed and transformed into two sharp and majestic bird eyes.

His body also changed rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, the crimson figure that was standing on the ground transformed into a Zapdos, flapping its wings and hovering in mid-air.

"Hiss, gay~!!!"

Luffy, who witnessed all of this, immediately let out an excited shout.

Having recovered from his fourth-gear state, he hurriedly ran to the crimson figure in surprise, looked up, and excitedly asked:

"Crimson red, what's going on!?"

"How did you suddenly turn into a Zapdos!?"

wow——

With a nimble turn, Zapdos transformed back into a boy wearing a baseball cap and landed in front of Luffy.

"Hehe~ This is a bit complicated to explain."

"Are you sure you want to waste your precious game time listening to my story!?"

"Uh..." Luffy's expression froze. Although he struggled with his eyes, he ultimately made the right decision.

"Then let's forget about it!"

"Then shall we... continue?"

"continue!"

Red and Luffy took turns singing and then wandered around the abandoned power plant.

The wild Pokémon that spawn inside the abandoned power plant are mostly Electabuzz, Magnemite, or Magneton, all of which are Electric-type Pokémon that Luffy is weak against, and all of them are level 40 or higher.

The only slightly troublesome ones are probably the toxic Grimer and Muk.

However, with the Bright Storm technique's ability to remove all abnormal statuses, Luffy is completely fearless!

Each of these Pokémon can provide Luffy with a large amount of experience points.

Furthermore, in order to help Luffy improve his strength even faster, Red even brought out his hidden treasure – the Poké Ball!

Every time Luffy defeats a Pokémon, he throws out a Poké Ball, allowing Luffy to always enjoy the fun of double experience points.

Although the special modifications to the machine make it less convenient to obtain Poké Balls than in the game, and their price in the Friendship Shop has increased several times over.

However, thanks to Crimson's patience all along...

Since the computer was turned on, his backpack has accumulated hundreds of regular Poké Balls, dozens of Great Balls, and more than a dozen Ultra Balls.

Some of them were bought by Chi Hong at the Friendship Store, while others were found by him on the roadside.

In short...

With these Poké Balls, he can not only let his friends experience the thrill of leveling up with double or even multiple times the experience.

Furthermore, they often obtain valuable items from the Pokémon they capture.

What surprised Crimson the most was the [TMT - Lock-On] that dropped from a Magnemite yesterday!

[Movement: Lock-on]

【Attribute: Normal】

Category: Change

【power:-】

[Description: By keeping your focus firmly on your opponent, your attacks are more likely to hit.]

This move has neither great power nor any fancy effects.

But after Red tested the effect of this move, he praised it highly!

This technique is so effective that it can effectively mobilize the user's perception beyond the five senses!

Just as described in the move description...

Attention is not simply a matter of sight and hearing!

After Luffy, Zoro, and the others conducted repeated tests, they finally proved with certainty that after activating a lock-on technique, their Observation Haki would receive a terrifying boost and be firmly focused on the target.

Even if the other party leaves their Observation Haki range, they will still be able to sense them to some extent.

Locking in is simply the perfect move to train your Observation Haki!

"Once we're done with this busy period, it'll be time to get Usopp, Nami, and the others back to their Haki training!"

Watching Luffy rhythmically defeat one Pokémon after another, Red, the Straw Hat Pirates' trainer, murmured to himself and then confidently began to examine his newly acquired achievement reward.

After some time of exploration and with the system's prompts, he had a general understanding of what the reward actually entailed.

In short...

The achievement reward of "Conqueror of the Divine Beasts!" is equivalent to having Red eat a Devil Fruit called "Zoan-type Bird-Bird Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Zapdos Mode".

Now, he can transform his entire body or parts into Zapdos form anytime, anywhere, and freely use the power and multiple rows of Zapdos moves.

All he needs to give up is a tiny bit of battery power!

"The power consumption in its fully evolved form is 5 times that of the normal game world!"

"That means at my current power recovery rate, I can transform into Zapdos for more than an hour a day..."

"However, Zapdos's battle stance isn't particularly convenient, so there's no need to pursue its Ultimate form."

Crimson was testing while pondering in his mind.

The template's flexibility far exceeded his expectations.

In addition to being able to transform parts of his body into Zapdos form, he can even freely choose how much power to load onto himself based on the percentage of the template.

The only downside to this achievement reward is...

It's possible that the Zapdos that Luffy defeated wasn't that strong, at most around the level of a 3 million bounty pirate.

However, in any case, it can be considered as solving Red's shortcoming of lacking basic combat abilities in addition to moves and skills.

"Machine, you've finally become a human again!"

A few hours later.

Luffy and Red, whose experience points had increased significantly again, left the game world and returned to the Going Merry.

A faint orange-yellow light pierced the silent darkness, rising slowly from the distant horizon and illuminating the entire world.

"It's a new day again~"

With a bountiful harvest, Crimson looked at the beautiful scenery at sea, a look of anticipation on its face.

"The Celestial Dragons are ready, and the situation in the New World is not optimistic."

"The timing is almost right!"

Near Gaya Island.

The surging waves roared and surged on the sea, like a ferocious beast calling for its prey.

The overcast sky made this sea area look like the end of the world, making it impossible for ordinary people to get close.
