One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

Kona's Clamshell has an even more remarkable hard shell, making its outer shell exceptionally sturdy.

Can……

"Can I trust you, Clamshell?!"

Seeing the Clamshell appear on the field, Kona silently recited a prayer before shouting:

"Clamace, use the retraction technique!"

"Next, use Iron Wall!!!"

"Be careful, the Pokémon over there is acting strangely!"

Although she still hadn't found a way to break the deadlock, Kona didn't give up and continued to hold onto hope for the spiky shell.

Then, rumble...

The familiar flames, the familiar roar.

Under the violent explosion, the spiny mollusk that had retracted into its shell was instantly launched like a marble by the impact of the blast.

In addition, it even unleashed a Pokémon move.

In fact, if Lorelei hadn't reacted quickly enough to put Cloyster into a defensive stance in advance, the battle might have ended much earlier.

Even so, the situation was not much better at this point.

With no chance of fighting back, it was only a matter of time before the Spiny Clam was defeated.

"Are you still trying to decide the outcome by stalling tactics?!"

On the other side, Red, who was standing at a distance avoiding the bombardment of the explosion, saw the expression on Kona's face and instantly guessed what she was thinking.

Kona, who was unaware of Devil Fruit abilities, hoped to buy time with the incredibly strong defensive Shell, waiting for Usopp to run out of supplies!

It must be said that Kona's combat skills are undoubtedly excellent, given that she was able to come up with such a battle plan under such unforeseen circumstances.

But after a fleeting thought, Crimson merely smiled slightly and commented:

"The approach is correct."

"It's just a pity..."

"You've run into Usopp!!!"

Rumble...

The artillery fire lasted for a full three minutes.

Finally, after nearly a thousand high-explosive shells detonated in this icy land, Kona's spiky shell could no longer hold on, opened its shell, and revealed a strange face with its eyes rolling around.

Spiny shell, defeated!

Level 61 Slowbro, Level 61 Sandslash (Alolan Form), and Level 62 Lapras...

While Kona's idea was good, unfortunately, Usopp's equipment was simply too shameless.

Compared to Pokémon that fight on their own, his tactics are completely a pay-to-win strategy only whales can afford to use!

In just a few tens of minutes, the amount of ammunition Usopp used was enough to easily destroy a country!

If these munitions were sold under the guise of weapons, they would be worth at least a billion dollars.

If Nami knew that Usopp had wasted so many Berries in a single battle, she might strangle this spendthrift.

It's fair to say that Kona's loss was entirely justified.

After all, how can a person be compared to a cheater?

"I never imagined you'd become so powerful!"

After the battle, the once lively Kona became dull again and began to have a conversation with Red based on the machine's settings.

"In that case, let's consider your challenge a success."

"You may proceed to the next room."

"It's finally... over!"

"Hoo~!"

Seeing the environment return to normal under the machine's magical power, Usopp immediately removed his Green Goblin Armor and sat down wearily on the ground.

Although releasing his Devil Fruit powers wouldn't waste too much of his energy, constantly chasing after Kona Pokémon amidst the massive explosions was somewhat mentally exhausting for Usopp.

"Well done, Usopp!"

At the same time, Crimson, holding a bottle of good medicine and with a satisfied and approving smile on her face, came to Usopp's side.

"Combining the special abilities of the Storage Fruit with Pokémon energy to issue specific commands to the plants..."

"I can't believe you even came up with something like that!"

"hey-hey."

Usopp, who rarely received praise from Akane, grinned and immediately responded:

"As expected of Crimson, he actually figured out the operating principle of the Green Goblin Armor directly."

"But we have to thank Franky for his help!"

"His research and design on weapon structure is the key to the perfect operation of this Green Goblin Armor."

"Hmm, the Green Goblin Armor's abilities should be more than just this, right?"

Red nodded and smiled.

"You two, one is good at making strange gadgets, and the other has a talent for making gun barrels and cannons."

"With these two forces complementing each other, who knows what kind of big commotion they might cause in the future."

"I'm really looking forward to the day when you guys let me pilot a Gundam!"

After exchanging a few words with Usopp, Red chuckled and sent his consciousness back to the real world.

Even with the Green Goblin Armor, Usopp could challenge one or two more Uranus.

But he's not the main character today.

Having him participate in a King of Fighters challenge to test the performance of the new equipment would be considered a perfect completion of the mission.

Moreover, the Green Goblin Armor is not entirely invincible.

The limited space simply gave Usopp an advantage.

If it were truly in the natural environment, it's hard to say whether Usopp could defeat Lorelei.

So let's leave the battle to the real strong ones!

A dark figure flashed by.

Sanji, who was already prepared, appeared in front of Akane in an instant.

"It's finally my turn!"

"Did Usopp waste so much time?"

Sanji, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, smiled slightly, his face showing an eager expression.

But upon hearing this, the crimson-faced man immediately found it amusing.

Even though he knew Sanji was just joking, he couldn't help but remind him:

"It's a pity that the Pokémon world doesn't have recording equipment, otherwise I would really like to show you Usopp's battle just now."

"Huh!?" Sanji was taken aback. "What? Has that guy developed some other fighting style again?"

"Hehe~" Red smiled without saying a word, but left Sanji with a mysterious look.

Immediately afterwards, he completely abandoned Sanji and opened the main interface of the machine with a flash of his eyes.

At this moment, a notification message with a gold border appeared prominently on the main interface.

This was the first time Crimson had ever seen such elaborate information prompts on a machine.

Clearly, this hint is by no means something simple.

With a thought, Crimson immediately focused her attention on the notification message.

[Congratulations to the player for defeating the Ice-type Elite Four member, Lorelei! The achievement "Legendary Path" has been unlocked.]

[The Path to Legend: For each Alliance King defeated, the player gains a boost to their physical strength, an additional special ability, and a special item.]

[Congratulations to the player for defeating the Ice-type Elite Four member, Lorelei, and gaining the special ability: Ice Incarnation.]

[Congratulations to the player for defeating the Ice-type Elite Four member, Lorelei, and receiving a special reward: Ice Seed.]

A series of messages popped up on the screen of the machine.

Feeling the inexplicable power emanating from his body, a "I knew it" expression appeared on his flushed face.

His earlier guess was correct!

Since even the achievements triggered by the gym challenge are able to make his strength steadily increase.

As the King of Kings Challenge is part of the main storyline of the game world, it's impossible for it to remain completely silent.

The emergence of the new achievement, "Path of Legends," proves this point.

As Crimson marveled, he raised his arm and unleashed the new power that had suddenly appeared within his body.

"They even have powers from outside the Pokémon world..."

"You haven't been influenced by the One Piece world, have you, Machine!?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crimson human hand instantly transformed into the shape of an ice cone.

And this is the reward he just received in [Achievement: Path of Legend] - the Incarnation of Ice.

This ability grants Crimson the power to transform any part of her body into ice elements and to shape and transform ice.

However, as one of the rewards for this achievement, this ability is not particularly powerful.

First of all, the Ice Incarnation can only allow Akane to undergo physical transformation, but it cannot create countless ice crystals out of thin air like Aokiji's Ice-Ice Fruit.

Secondly...

The volume of ice transformed by the Ice Incarnation is also related to the volume of Crimson itself.
