"It seems you are not destined to have this fruit."

As he spoke, Thoth looked at Nochiko and Huniu, "You two come and eat, try one first and see the effect."

"Nami, transform back into your white tiger form and give Tiger Girl a strong reference."

Nami blinked, and her body changed drastically, transforming into a seven-meter-tall white tiger.

Tiger Girl roared excitedly, came to Thoth, hugged a fruit, and swallowed it in three bites.

Nochiko also came over, picked up a coin, and quickly ate it.

He sat cross-legged beside Thoth and began to digest the power within the fruit.

A deep tiger roar suddenly rang out, and the tiger girl's bones cracked and popped as she looked at Nami with intense longing in her icy blue tiger eyes.

The graceful curves of its body, the powerful wind control, the terrifying pressure—everything about it is what it desires.

As the life energy in her body was fully digested, Tiger Girl's size increased considerably.

A flow of air gradually began to move across the body's surface.

Then, she looked longingly at Thoth, whose Observation Haki sensed the life force within Tiger Girl's body, and the rhythm and frequency were very stable.

It was signaling to continue eating.

Tiger Girl's eyes were filled with emotion and excitement as she continued to devour her food.

Tiger Girl's evolution continued, and Thoth looked at Nojiko. In the perception of all things breathing, the life veins in her body were constantly fluctuating.

At the same time, I sensed that her thoughts were also fluctuating wildly; she longed to become more perfect and stronger.

Driven by this intense desire, abundant life energy flowed through her body, and her aura gradually grew stronger.

In Thoth's perception, the frequency of the Smooth-Smooth Fruit power within Nojiko's body also became incredibly active at this moment, making her entire body flawless inside and out.

That foreign life energy could not affect or change her body.

After consuming the fifth one and digesting it, the tiger girl, now two meters tall, roared and a gust of wind burst forth from her body.

Blow away all the bloodstains and fallen hair that had flowed from his body due to his rapid increase in size.

The wind swirled and undulated around it.

Thoth looked at Tiger Girl, a slight smile playing on his lips, as his alien bloodline had fully awakened and evolved.

Tiger Girl noticed Thoth looking at her, and with a roar full of excitement, she suddenly leaped into the air. An invisible gale howled, and her body glided away into the distance on the wind.

Thoth's eyes flickered slightly as he realized that even if Tiger Girl had awakened her wind control abilities, she still couldn't compare to the real White Tiger Nami.

Or perhaps, it's just that it's too weak right now and its abilities have only just awakened and evolved, so its ability usage is too inefficient.

However, the wind seemed to be just an ordinary wind.

But what if Tiger Girl learns paper drawing, storm kick, and moon walk later on?

The visuals are absolutely stunning.

With a tiger's roar, Thoth saw a condensed whirlwind erupt from the tiger girl's mouth, blasting a hole more than a meter in diameter into a nearby tree.

Surprise appeared in his eyes.

After watching Tiger Girl frolic and practice her abilities for a while, Thoth looked at Nojiko, who had already eaten her sixth Devil Fruit.

His aura became increasingly powerful, and in Thoth's perception, it was no less than that of Arlong back then.

Her body had also grown considerably larger, in every sense of the word. The red and white striped T-shirt on her chest became incredibly tight, and due to the angle of her cross-legged position, her hips became more rounded.

Soon after, Nokiko slowly opened her eyes and exhaled a breath that smelled of fruit.

At this moment, a red light gradually appeared deep in her eyes, and her Observation Haki had awakened.

At that moment, Thoth was surprised to discover that her Observation Haki seemed to possess a peculiar power.

In his own perception, the Observation Haki surrounding Nojiko's body was like being covered by an incredibly smooth membrane.

Nojiko blinked, a slight smile playing on her lips. "My Smooth-Smooth Fruit ability has been deeply developed. The super-smooth characteristic, combined with the intense craving brought about by the mutated fruit, has become a part of my Observation Haki."

When my Observation Haki surrounds my body, it can naturally deflect the senses of others.

This achieves a kind of concealment effect.

Assassin?

In her own perception, Observation Haki naturally swept past her, as if her aura was being protected.

However, this was only a barrier; Thoth would still notice something amiss.

"You're really something. You disabled someone's Observation Haki right away. In future battles, you'll basically have the upper hand."

A smile appeared in Nojiko's eyes:

"It's alright, after all, it can't completely prevent others from sensing my presence."

"You should be content! Besides, Observation Haki can be continuously developed and improved. Who knows if you can do it in the future?"

"Thoth said with a smile."

Nami's eyes widened slightly. Nojiko had awakened her Observation Haki, and possessed this ability that could be considered the sixth best.

Karina blinked, a sweet smile on her face: "Congratulations, big sister! Your long-awaited Observation Haki has finally awakened."

Immediately afterward, Johnny and his companion, realizing what was happening, also offered their congratulations with envy.

All the mutated fruits obtained have now been consumed.

However, at this moment, Thoth looked up at the ancient tree in the center of the lake, his eyes filled with thought:

"I wonder if the tree sap will be useful?"

093. The Core of Life!

Do it when you think of it.

Thoth stood up and looked at the giant tree in the center of the lake. The fragrance of flowers in the surrounding air was now barely perceptible.

Having just finished feeding, the giant tree, through its Observation Haki, sensed a hint of satiation and an increasingly deep-seated greedy nature.

The chicken feet are showing!

This tree is full of spirit; even if it lacks intelligence and understanding, it is probably no less than some ordinary wild beasts.

Drawing his Tyrblade from his waist, Thoth bent his knees slightly to gather his strength, and with a thud, he left two deep footprints on the ground before shooting off like an arrow.

A hundred meters away, with a loud crack, two feet slammed into the air, and amidst the booming sound, the figure sped closer like a hawk.

Amidst the continuous booming of the atmosphere, Thoth quickly traversed hundreds of meters to reach the giant tree.

As if sensing danger, ripples and waves instantly spread across the lake's surface, and whoosh! Thick roots shot out from the lake's surface.

Sixteen dark green roots, tinged with the color of iron, suddenly stabbed, whipped, and coiled around him.

midair.

Thoth showed no surprise. In the blink of an eye, the tree roots rushed in front of him, all things breathed and resonated, and Tyrfong bloomed with several cold trajectories in his hand.

Click, click, click!

I could feel the steely texture of the blade as it sliced ​​through me.

The attacking roots were severed in an instant.

The greenish-blue juice spilled into the air.

A unique, fresh fragrance of grass and trees immediately filled the air.

But at that moment, the entire giant tree suddenly trembled violently, and roots and stems shot out of the lake surface in succession.

In Thoth's perception, an invisible sense of anger permeated the environment at that moment.

"Tasting hundreds of herbs"

A look of understanding dawned on Tote's eyes; from the fresh scent of grass and trees... the greenish sap indeed contained a vigorous life force.

It is extremely suitable for medicinal use.

Armament Haki surged within his body, quickly seeping into Tyr's Blade. In the blink of an eye, the blade turned a deep, dark black, with a bluish-black flame rising and then instantly condensing on the blade.

In mid-air, Thoth nimbly treads the air, his figure speeding through the dense, thick roots.

His right arm swung swiftly, and streaks of dark blue light were etched into the atmosphere.

Sections of roots fell from mid-air to the lake surface, scattering green sap everywhere and even changing the color of the lake.

The giant tree's branches and leaves trembled violently, and a silent tremor echoed in the atmosphere, like a mournful cry.

And at this moment.

The lake surface was churned into a raging torrent, and increasingly dense roots burst forth from the lake bottom. Then, from the canopy and leaves, purplish-black flowers bloomed in profusion, and a strange fragrance burst forth instantly.

In an instant, the aura spread into the distance. Thoth frowned, sensing that the beasts in the forest were becoming agitated.

He suddenly stomped forward, his body rising high into the air. Turning back to look at Nami and the others on the shore, who were watching him warily, he shouted:

"You all, get back out of the way!!!"

After saying this, he lowered his head, looked at the giant tree's desperate posture, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes. He no longer held back.

He turned upside down, head down, and with a thunderous thud, his legs kicked off the air, and he descended from the sky as a blur.

Approaching the roots that writhed like pythons in the blink of an eye, Tyrfinger in his hand swung like waves, the cracking sound echoing incessantly.

Sections of roots broke off, and green sap crawled all over his body. Thoth landed on a thick root, leaped forward, and wielded a sharp sword. Any root that attacked was cut off in the blink of an eye.

After a few breaths, with no roots left around him, Thoth arrived in front of the giant tree trunk and took a deep breath... Clang!

Holding the sword with both hands, Armament Haki condensed on the blade like a tide, and in an instant, he swung it out, and in the blink of an eye, a cyan-black slash beam with a diameter of 100 meters shot out with a whooshing sound.

In an instant, it cleaved the trunk of the giant tree horizontally. After a crisp buzzing sound, the entire giant tree seemed to freeze, remaining motionless.

Crack! A few seconds later, a crack spread out from a position of several meters from the trunk of the giant tree. The trunk tilted backward, and a smooth cut appeared that went deep into the trunk for tens of meters.

With a series of cracking sounds, the entire winding giant tree crashed onto the lake surface.

Waves hundreds of meters high were created.

Thoth flashed to the smooth cut on the main trunk, where green sap seeped out continuously, and an incredibly rich, fresh herbal fragrance filled the air.
