One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! ...

Two differently colored dragon wings suddenly emerged from behind Zoro.

One gleamed with a strong metallic sheen, while the other was pitch black, exuding a demonic aura.

Inscriptions, faintly tinged with blood, emerged from Zoro's heart amidst the darkness, covering his entire body like dragon scales, leaving only his resolute and handsome face visible.

"Oh? It's Zoro's new form!"

Sensing the aura emanating from Zoro on the field, a look of surprise flashed in his crimson eyes.

"Is this a variant of the Asura form from the original story?!"

"As expected of you, Zoro!!!"

After carefully experiencing the power of superpowers, Crimson was filled with excitement and admiration.

If it weren't for the ongoing fight, he would have been tempted to exclaim in surprise for Zoro.

Despite possessing no Devil Fruit abilities, Zoro has somehow managed to create a power that never existed before in this world by combining his understanding of swordsmanship, demonic energy, Pokémon power, and Haki with his intuition and talent!

Without the Nika Fruit, and without the bloodline of scientific power...

Zoro is more deserving of the title "Strongest Human" than Luffy and Sanji!!!

He embodies the true spirit of humanity at its peak!

"Now, the chances of beating 'Let's Go, Peel/Let's Go, Eel' have increased quite a bit!"

"Luckily, I never doubted you, Zoro!"

Crimson celebrated in her heart with deep emotion.

He once analyzed the changes in the levels of Gym Leaders' Pokémon...

If the machines don't cause any trouble, the highest level of the Pokémon held by the Elite Four will be between 55 and 60, and will not exceed 60.

Even among the Four Heavenly Kings' rivals, the level of the enemies they encounter is probably only around level 60.

With Luffy's current strength, it would be no problem for him to make a grand entrance as the final character and challenge both the strongest Dragon-type Uranus and his strongest rival.

With his powerful Devil Fruit ability, Sanji could reliably contend with one of the Four Heavenly Kings if he leveled up even slightly.

Now we have Zoro as another reliable fighting force.

Next, if Crimson trains him for a while longer and he levels up by one or two, he can easily defeat one of the Elite Four.

"As for the last of the Four Heavenly Kings..."

Thinking of this, a glint flashed in Crimson Eyes as she recalled the figures of her companions, but ultimately focused her attention on one person.

"I wonder if Usopp, now possessing Devil Fruit powers, is up to the task!" Red thought to himself.

Although among the current companions, the highest-ranking Laboon is still available to choose from...

But the battleground is ultimately on land, and Laboon's size is too enormous.

Unable to move freely on the ground, he would only become a sitting duck in the battle of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Moreover, Laboon's potential is ultimately too low.

Despite its high ranking, its true strength may not surpass that of the Elite Four Pokémon created by the machine.

Therefore, he was naturally excluded from the candidate list by Crimson.

As for Robin, who is the second highest-ranking, she is still quite far from being able to shoulder a major responsibility.

As a result, the only decent member of the Straw Hat Pirates is Usopp, who can hide an army of insectoids with him.

Red has completed the test. As long as he doesn't turn those insects into Pokémon, Usopp can freely bring the insects hidden inside his body into the Pokémon world.

Although they had previously researched turning some insectoid creatures into Pokémon and then accelerating their reproduction to see if they could breed insectoid creatures with inherited moves.

But that's just speculation, and it would waste a lot of electricity, so a lot of preparation is still needed before it can be put into practice.

not to mention……

Those are, after all, the Four Heavenly Kings.

Usopp's Zerg army is still too weak, and the tactic of overwhelming the enemy with sheer numbers may not be 100% successful.

Therefore, he needs to develop even more powerful Zerg or Ammunition before he reaches the Elite Four in the game.

"So, our next focus for development will be these two people!"

Having thought of this, Crimson instantly made up her mind.

Meanwhile.

In the arena, Zoro, transformed into his Steel Demon Dragon form, was already clashing with Blaine's Nine-Tails.

The flickering firelight illuminated the entire area.

The slender Nine-Tailed Fox waved its nine magnificent tails, moving swiftly across the arena with the agility of a flash, transforming into a fleeting shadow enveloped in flames.

Compared to it, Zoro at this moment was like a strange monster, roaring and ferocious, opening his vicious claws at this beautiful Pokémon.

A battle between a human and their pet is about to erupt!

Having entered a state of barely holding on, Zoro has chosen to go all in!

Even though he had almost no energy left, he still chose to desperately push his body to its limits, converting all the Pokémon energy into physical strength by enduring the moves, making his attacks even more fierce and violent!

boom!!!

With his dragon wings waving, Zoro took a series of steps and used the Shave technique, unleashing the power of the Nine-Tails that was no less than that amplified by the high-speed movement technique!

"Since the opportunity is right, let's use you to test this technique that was originally prepared for curling eyebrows!"

"Dragon Form - Three-Sword Style - Ultimate - Hellfire Demon Slash!!!"

Whoosh! ! !

With a whooshing sound.

Zoro's figure flashed past Kurama in an instant!

The two landed on the ground simultaneously, maintaining their postures.

Several seconds later, a gust of wind that suppressed the raging flames belatedly appeared on the ground.

The wind pressure formed instantly, like a sharp slash that cut the world apart, piercing through the entire arena.

Zoro staggered forward two steps, a struggling expression on his face.

Clang!

The Sandai Kitetsu and Zacian were suddenly thrust into the ground, serving as crutches to support Zoro's exhausted body.

And just then...

"Chirp..."

The Nine-Tails behind Zoro suddenly let out a painful howl, its eyes flashing as it looked at its trainer, but before it could fully raise its head...

The severely injured Nine-Tails went limp and collapsed to the ground.

And at this moment...

This also signifies that Zoro has successfully defeated Blaine, the leader of the Crimson Gym, winning another important badge for Red!

"I never expected that you would actually defeat me!"

"Then, as a reward for the victor, this crimson badge is yours!"

"What an amazing challenger!"

"Also, consider this [Move Learning Device - Big Flame Burst] as a reward for your victory over me!"

The battle is over.

Crimson suddenly waved his hand, summoning a grassy field to help Zoro, who was nearly unconscious, regain his strength.

He then went to the curator, Xia Bo, and received his reward.

As a deep red badge, as red as a flame, fell into Crimson's hand, an incomparably intense energy suddenly surged within his body.

"This is……"

Feeling the crimson sensation as if some strange, enormous object was filling his body, a flush immediately appeared on his face.

Of course, this does not mean that anything strange happened to him.

In that instant, the energy volume within the crimson body suddenly doubled!

At the same time, the Pokémon's energy recovery rate also increases dramatically!

"As expected of the crimson emblem that represents fire!"

"This is really... going all out!!!"

Sensing the sudden changes within his body, a look of amazement flashed across his crimson eyes, followed by a satisfied smile instantly spreading across his lips.

The increased energy capacity allows him to use Pokémon moves more recklessly, making their power and effects even more terrifying!

The increased energy recovery rate also means that he has more resources to continue hypnotizing others.

The reward the machine gave him this time, while not exactly doubling his strength, did relieve Crimson's immediate crisis.

His gaze shifted, and he immediately looked at the new move learning device that the gym leader, Xia Bo, had given him.

However, as a synonym for simplicity and brutality, the fire attribute makes this move extremely concise.

The effect is to release a large flame attack on the enemy, causing an explosion, and there is a certain chance that the enemy will suffer burning pain.

The effect of this move can be described as extremely simple.

However, its power is a high 110 points, second only to the terrifying destructive ray.

In contrast, this move is not as difficult to control as the destructive beam.

Even its move effects themselves have the ability to help users control Pokémon energy.

It is foreseeable that...
