One Piece: Start Collecting Nicolo

Barto tugged at Big Bear's trouser leg and looked up at him: "Big Bear, does your ability have any effect on this?"

Big Bear sighed, "It probably won't work. Even if it does, I don't want to suffer such humiliation."

On the deck, several girls surrounded Caesar, touching and poking him.

"So... if antibodies can only be produced after the disease is cured, how can this disease be cured?" Robin asked curiously.

"Femininity itself is caused by a mutation in estrogen. As long as the hormones in the body are balanced, it will be fine. In addition, the Disease Fruit will amplify the effects of the disease. Under normal circumstances, the effects of femininity are not so obvious."

Deuce said, raising an eyebrow slyly at Caesar. "Would you like me to help you untie it, Captain? Or would you like to try something different with your girlfriends tonight?"

"Sounds interesting, but I'm afraid it won't be until tonight..."

Caesar's body suddenly grew taller and returned to its original shape. The women all looked regretful when they saw this.

"I have a huge amount of life force stored in my body, which will keep me in the healthiest state. If there is any hormone abnormality, this unhealthy state will be adjusted quickly."

Caesar laughed, "This ability is quite interesting though! Do you have any other abilities?"

"Yes, Captain! Yes! I also have virility disorder!" Deuce said excitedly.

Suddenly, several cold and ruthless gazes looked over at him, causing his smile to freeze.

"have what?"

Robin looked at Deuce with a smile, and although it was a bright smile, it gave him a chill.

"Haha, it's indeed an interesting ability!"

Yamato slammed his mace down on the deck and laughed heartily, "But if you use it on me, I'll blow your head off!"

Baby5 said nothing, but just fiddled with his left arm that had turned into a cannon.

Nami and Bonnie took two steps back, chirping quietly.

"Turn a man into a woman, turn a woman into a man, Nami-san, this is what that is..."

"Ah, that's it!"

"Pervert!" ×2

"Ahem... just a joke!"

The corner of Deus' mouth twitched, and he waved his hand with a wry smile: "By the way! I'm not very familiar with the power of the fruit yet, I need to get used to it first!"

Having said that, he turned around and slipped into the cabin.

"I thought you, Yamato, would be interested?"

Caesar looked at Yamato with amusement: "Didn't you always say that you were a man?"

"Wow! Don't mention that! Ouch!"

Yamato's face turned red, and he bit Caesar's head in panic.

"Oh! It hurts! Hurry up and take her away!"

Caesar pushed Yamato's head with both hands, causing everyone to laugh.

Barto ran behind Caesar and pulled him back by his waist, while Baby5 hugged Yamato's waist and pulled him back with a distressed look on her face.

Seeing this, Nami also laughed and stepped forward to help. She hugged Baby5's waist, and Bonnie hugged Nami's waist, and then they just hung on each other's waists...

"Ahhh, it hurts even more! Be gentler!"

"Sir, please be patient! I'm coming to save you!"

"Are you okay, dear? Onee-sama, please let go!"

"Be patient for a moment, lecherous captain! We are here to help you!"

"That's right! Hahaha..."

"Bullshit! You guys were just laughing! You didn't stop!"

Ace watched this scene and laughed unconsciously.

Suddenly his smile stopped, and he looked down at the Flame-Flame Fruit in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.

"This fruit is very suitable for you."

Big Bear lowered his head and smiled gently.

"Hey... I say, Mr. Big Bear."

Ace looked at Caesar in the crowd and asked, "You must be very powerful, right? Why did you join his team, even bringing your daughter with you?"

Chapter 91 Bounty

"Because he needs me."

Big Bear had a gentle smile on his face.

"Caesar cured Bonnie's jade scales. This is a very rare and terminal disease. There are only a few people in the world who can treat this disease..."

"So you're doing this to repay a favor?" Ace asked.

"No, he didn't threaten me with this. Instead, after curing Bonnie's illness, he formally invited me."

Big Bear explained, "So I boarded the ship not out of gratitude, but out of a genuine desire to follow him and help him complete his journey to unify the world."

Ace pondered: "Unify the world... is this his ambition?"

"No, he didn't do it out of ambition. I could sense that."

Big Bear shook his head slightly. "It's like he thought it was the right thing to do, so he did it. You saw it before, didn't you? He even extended an invitation to the admiral. Bloodline or status, he never cared about such things."

"Is this so..."

Ace raised his hand to press down the brim of his hat, and pursed his lips slightly.

"By the way, let me remind you..."

Big Bear smiled slightly: "Caesar's ability is very strong. If you don't eat this fruit, there is no way you can defeat him."

"Fruit...what is its ability?"

Ace asked hurriedly, knowing the opponent's intelligence was also a necessary condition for victory.

"It's okay to tell you, but don't tell anyone."

Big Bear raised two fingers: "Caesar, due to his own special nature, has two fruit abilities. One is the rarest mythical beast-type vampire fruit, and the other is the natural-type dark-dark fruit."

"Speciality? Two abilities?"

Ace pressed the issue, "Does that mean a person can only eat one devil fruit under normal circumstances?"

Big Bear nodded and said, "That's right. Each person can only eat one devil fruit in their lifetime. It is rumored that anyone who eats the second fruit will explode."

"That's too shameless!"

Ace's face twitched. "Just one ability is troublesome, right? For example, your ability, I have no idea how to deal with it. Damn, I always thought that people with abilities were as funny as Luffy!"

"funny?"

Big Bear tilted his head, clearly very interested in Luffy.

Thinking of his brother, Ace grinned, "Ah, he's the user of the Gum-Gum Fruit, and he often accidentally sends himself flying."

“That was really interesting.”

Big Bear laughed: "But even if we don't take into account the ability of the fruit, Caesar's Haki and swordsmanship are both top-notch. He has no weaknesses at all. In my opinion, he should be the strongest man in the world right now."

“Domineering…”

Ace was obviously unfamiliar with this term.

"That's what I said, Sabo is ahead of you."

Big Bear explained, "If you don't learn Haki, you won't be able to survive in the New World, let alone challenge Caesar."

Ace was a little embarrassed: "Then... can you teach me?"

"of course."

Big Bear nodded and said, "I was originally responsible for teaching you Haki, but for some more advanced Haki uses, you'll need Caesar to teach you. He has a high level of attainment in Haki."

"Is that so?"

Ace nodded and looked at Caesar who was pulling his head out of Yamato's mouth and was furious.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yamato turned around and ran, but Caesar dodged and carried him on his shoulders and brought him into the cabin.

Ace: "What are those two doing?"

Big Bear: "I can't teach you about physiology. I suggest you find a girlfriend and study it privately."

"..."

A young man's shyness flashed across Ace's face, and he scratched his cheek awkwardly.

Then he looked at the fruit in his hand, as if he had made up his mind, and ate it all in a few bites.

"Ugh—it tastes so bad!"

"You're eating too fast. You only need one bite."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?!"

Ace's face turned dark, and with a loud bang, dazzling flames burned from above his head.

"Ouch! Ace's head is on fire!"

Noticing the commotion, Bonnie yelled, "Are all the idiots' heads on fire?"

"This is the power of the fruit, you little brat!" Ace roared with his shark face.

"Nature Department..."

Nami was a little curious. The target Caesar had chosen for her was also a nature-type. "Hurry up, let's see what abilities it has."

"ability…"

Ace raised his hand, and with a thought, a blazing flame burned fiercely. Then he made a pistol gesture towards the sea.

Puff puff…

A series of flaming bullets flew out, exploding into brilliant flames on the distant sea.

"Haha! Looks like it's really interesting?"

Bonnie clapped her hands and said, "Can we set off fireworks?"

"Let me try…"

Ace thought for a moment, then raised his hand and pointed to the sky.

Another flash of fire shot up into the sky, and with a bang it exploded into brilliant sparks.

Robin chuckled, "That's great! We don't have to buy fireworks on the ship anymore."

"More than that!"

Hearing the noise, Deus rushed out of the cabin, his face brimming with excitement. "Flame is a very good power source! If I had enough materials, I could build a small flame-powered assault ship!"

Barto patted Ace on the shoulder and said, "Yoshi! From today on, you're a member of the support team!"

Ace was a little confused: "Support team?"

"It's a team specifically responsible for combat support. The current captain is Daxiong."

Barto explained, "By the way, I'm from the combat team, and the captain is Miss Yamato!"

Deuce thought for a moment and said, "So I'm the medical team?"

Nami pointed at herself, "Then what am I? The Weather Team?"

"Should it be considered a logistics team?"

Robin pondered, "For now, I should be included. Big Bear is in charge of the logistics team. His ability allows for strong mobility. Besides, Baby5 and Bonnie are both considered part of the combat team."

"How about this? Kuma will still be in charge of the support team. Currently, Kuma and Ace are on the team. As for me, Nami, Deuce, and other civilian and medical personnel, we will form the logistics team. I will be the team leader and be responsible for coordinating the support team."

"Yamato is still in charge of the battle team, and the members are Barto, Baby5, and Bonnie."

"Hey, wait a minute!"
