When they tried to dodge, they found that several large black holes appeared in the space, constantly pulling their bodies, making their movements slow and deformed.
While they were busy dodging and adapting to this strange gravity, Al began to explain: "In this state, my use of fruit abilities will also be greatly improved, and I can display perfect fruit abilities at will."
Seeing that everyone stopped to avoid and resist the gravity of the Dark-Dark Fruit, El quietly changed his tactics and converted the fruit ability into the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
In an instant, a strong shock wave erupted around them without warning. Caught off guard, everyone felt the powerful impact from all directions, and their bodies shook involuntarily.
After the shockwave subsided, Al released the Ultra Instinct state, looked at everyone with a gentle gaze, and said with a smile: "In this state, the body's energy consumption is extremely low. Through long-term battles, you can continuously accumulate advantages until you completely defeat the enemy."
The reason why the Ultra Instinct function is so perfect this time is due to the research on multiple personality brain circuit switching that Vegapunk conducted to help Big Bear.
After systematic optimization, this research allowed him to observe his body almost as if his soul had left his body, and to give appropriate control instructions without affecting his body's instincts.
The significant improvement in the fruit ability brought about by this state is due to Vegapunk's research, which stimulates the devil hidden in the devil fruit.
Under Al's guidance, Kaya, who possessed extensive medical knowledge, was the first to learn to separate her spirit from her body and to detach her spirit from the material world.
But it is not enough to just do this, she also needs to control her mind in this state and send just the right attacking commands to her body without over-controlling her body movements.
Originally, Kaya could only use the ability of the Slippery Fruit to make her body slide over the opponent's attacks like flowing water.
But in the Ultra Instinct state, she can not only slide her body away from attacks, but can also arbitrarily make the ground beneath her opponent's feet lose friction, causing her opponent to slip inexplicably.
Then, she would move decisively, launching continuous targeted attacks on the dislocated El. This series of actions was as smooth as flowing water, and was completed in one go, making everyone present dazzled.
Seeing that El seemed a little embarrassed after Kaya's operation, their enthusiasm for learning this secret increased.
Nami is the second person to learn Ultra Instinct.
When she entered the state, her whole body was covered in thunder, and the shining light made her look heroic, like a god descending from heaven.
Her Observation Haki, which was already close to the critical point, evolved to the point of being able to predict the future, allowing her to make the most accurate dodges in advance.
And each of her attacks was accompanied by the effects of high fever and paralysis. The power of thunder and lightning not only enhanced her attack power, but also stimulated her body, bringing greater strength and speed.
As everyone learned Ultra Instinct one after another, their abilities in their own fruits were greatly improved.
Among all the people, the one who got the biggest improvement was none other than Robin.
Her ability of the Hana-Hana no Mi allows any part of her body to grow like a flower on any tangible object within sight.
However, there is a close connection between these changed body parts and the original body, and everything they feel will be directly fed back to the original body.
Whenever an enemy attacks his arm, Robin himself will take the same damage.
When she entered the state of Ultra Instinct, her original arms were all transformed into fingers covered with armed color domineering.
The all-round, no-dead-angle attack of the Thousand Finger Guns made even Al's scalp tingle and he felt a chill running down his spine.
Time and again, Al became their experimental subject, allowing them to use their newly acquired abilities on him to their heart's content.
Seeing this scene, Gallot, who was standing by, no longer liked the carrot in his hand.
"Rebecca, why didn't you and Sister Tashigi learn this secret?" Carrot asked curiously.
Rebecca explained with a smile: "My sister Tashigi and I have different secrets from them. The captain said that it is better to learn thoroughly than to learn a lot, so we should focus on practicing our own skills."
Dashigi, who was standing nearby, also joined the conversation, gently touched Carrot's head and said, "Actually, we have to thank you, Carrot."
"Huh? Why are you thanking me?" Gallot looked confused.
Rebecca answered first: "Because the captain said that this time the secrets were specially researched and developed because you joined our team, so we have the opportunity to learn."
Chapter 177 A strong army means a strong country
Hearing this, Carrot felt mixed emotions, feeling both honored and a little disappointed: "It's a pity that I haven't eaten a devil fruit, so I can't learn the secrets like you guys."
Rebecca patted her shoulder comfortingly, "Don't worry. The Captain said you have the Moon Lion form. He plans to let you transform with the help of that form. Maybe you will be stronger than us."
Garrot tilted his head and looked up at the sky. "But the Moon Lion form can only be transformed when the moon is full. This opportunity is so rare."
Rebecca was speechless for a moment and looked to Dashigi beside her for help.
Dashiqi looked at the two little girls' expectant eyes and said with a smile, "Don't worry, just trust Al. He is a man full of miracles. All the problems you worry about are not a problem for him."
El, who heard their conversation, came over and said to Carrot: "Don't worry, Carrot, I know a way to let you transform into the Moon Lion form when it is not a full moon."
"Really? Captain? This is the first time I heard that one can transform into the Moon Lion form without a full moon!" Carrot looked at El in surprise.
"That's true, but that thing is not yet perfect and needs to be improved. What you need to do is to practice Qigong well during this period. After all, the Moon Lion form may consume a lot of physical strength."
Thinking that he could transform without a full moon, which would definitely shock his friends on Zou Island, Carrot nodded happily and pulled Rebecca to practice Qigong hard.
Looking at the little rabbit's efforts, Al thought about it and felt that it was almost time to put the Super Saiyan 4 form on the agenda, so he asked Kerla for help and went to Ruskaina Island.
A few days ago, Al contacted Hancock by phone and asked her to send someone to Ruskaina Island to contact Chopper and ask him to develop some blue wave balls.
At this time, Chopper had learned about the herbal medicine on Nine Snake Island, and his medical skills had also improved a lot.
Upon learning that Kerla was going to the uninhabited island where the Straw Hat guys were, Reiju specifically asked her to help bring some Alabasta specialties to Sanji.
As night slowly fell, Weiwei was finally able to free herself from her busy affairs.
During this day, she received envoys from neighboring countries and noble subjects from her country, and she felt that her face was filled with smiles.
However, when she opened the door to her room, she saw Al already in the room.
"Why are you here?" Weiwei's face showed fatigue and a hint of weakness.
"I came to see you. You must be tired after a busy day. Let me give you a massage to relax you."
Hearing Al's words, a blush quietly crept up her cheeks.
She closed the door gently, then relaxed on the recliner that Al had specially prepared for her.
Al's gentle fingers began to wander over her shoulders, skillfully kneading every inch of muscle and dispelling the fatigue that had accumulated throughout the day.
A few sips of warm milk slid down her throat. With this soothing massage, Weiwei's mood gradually relaxed and she began to talk about everything she had experienced today.
"It's really tiring today. I didn't expect my father to have to deal with so many things every day."
At this moment, Al turned into the best listener and listened carefully to her complaints.
However, this concentration only lasted for a while. His hands, which were originally focused on massage, began to wander and gradually deviated from their original purpose.
"Wait a minute, Al, I still have a lot of things to say!" Weiwei gently slapped Al's hand away, with a hint of coquettishness in her tone.
Al smiled, "Okay, go ahead, I'm just helping you relax."
"The workers sent by President Agubasi of the Seven Waters City will soon arrive here. By then, all the railways and trains in this country will be constructed by their engineering teams."
Before she finished speaking, Al's actions once again troubled her. Helplessly, she could only respond with a slightly reproachful look and continued, "All this is thanks to the treasures you brought back from the West Sea. With sufficient funds, I have enough confidence to carry out so many construction projects."
Hearing this, Al took the opportunity to lean close to Weiwei's ear and whispered, "So how are you going to thank me?"
Before Vivi could respond, Al had already given his answer with his actions. He flicked his fingers lightly, turned off the lights in the room, gently picked up Vivi and walked to the bed.
They shared a sweet moment on this warm night, and until Vivi fell asleep, Al began to think about the challenges facing the country.
Although Alabasta has a standing army of 600,000, it is extremely lacking in high-end combat capabilities.
Even the kingdom's guardian gods, Jackal Gaga and Jung-no-Bell, only have a bounty of around 10 million berries, which is a big gap compared to other forces.
But there was no way around it. Even the world's largest military force, the Navy, could only muster 100,000 elite navy troops when facing the Four Emperors Whitebeard.
Unless one has the ability of the Encouragement Fruit like Betty, the commander of the Revolutionary Army's Eastern Army, which allows the inspired Milk Girl to defeat Peach Beard with a difference of 5200 million, the gap in strength cannot be made up by numbers alone.
Ultimately, he decided to go back to basics and improve the soldiers' fitness through physical training.
Then invite some fishmen from Fishman Island to settle in Alabasta. With the help of their strength, hunt sea king creatures in the sea and provide high-energy food resources for the army.
He then taught the basics of Chi, and had them practice with weights like Master Roshi, to speed up the basic growth of the soldiers, so that they could grow into a physique capable of practicing the Six Styles of the Navy.
With the sound of Vivi's even breathing, Al's plan gradually became clearer and more complete.
The next morning, after sharing his plan with Vivi, El first set about teaching the two deputy commanders of the Kingdom Army, Jaka and Bell, the basic knowledge about Chi.
In order to ensure that this training method can adapt to more soldiers with different physiques, Al created a unique method of practicing fighting spirit through the system.
Let every ordinary soldier extract Qi from their bodies through systematic training and intake of high-energy food, thereby nourishing and strengthening their physical fitness.
During the teaching process, Al also specially invited Dashigi to assist in systematically organizing the complex training steps into a book.
Combined with some advanced training methods of the Navy, it was compiled into a complete training guide, providing the Kingdom Army with an intuitive and easy-to-understand learning tool.
As for the invitation from the residents of Fishman Island, Vivi decided to come forward in person and communicate and negotiate with King Neptune as the Queen of Alabasta.
Chapter 178 General Smoker
Over the next few days, something happened in the World Government concerning him.
After confirming that El and his friends did not master the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and the Dark-Dark Fruit, the World Government quietly withdrew the decision to give El the Supreme Sword that had been promised to him on the grounds that they had not fulfilled the previous conscription order.
At the same time, Al knew nothing about this and was taking King Cobra on a journey to the Twin Capes.
This was a special mission he had undertaken at Weiwei's request, and the reward had been collected in advance last night.
As a condition, he would take King Cobra to Twin Capes to ask Kulokas to give him a comprehensive health check.
After completing the physical examination of King Cobra, Kurokas prescribed some medicine for him, and El took the opportunity to make him an invitation.
"Mr. Crocus, are you interested in moving to Alabasta? The conditions there will definitely be much better than here."
Kulokas smiled generously and said, "Forget it. I have been here for so many years and I have already gotten used to it. I prefer the peaceful life here."
After hearing Crocus's refusal, El did not give up, but continued to persuade him: "If you want to live a peaceful life, there is a small island near Alabasta that is very suitable for you. It is a hot spring island that no one has ever set foot on. You can take Lab to vacation there. There are many human-like animals there, and I will help you build a wine cellar there to store the royal wine for you to enjoy."
After hearing El's conditions, Crocus was slightly tempted, but he did not agree immediately. He just left the permanent pointer of Alabasta and the map of the hot spring island, saying that he would go over and take a look when he was free.
After getting Crocus's reply, El said goodbye to him with a smile, turned into a blue dragon and carried King Cobra back to Alpala.
When he landed in the palace and found Vivi, she picked up a document from the World Government from the table and handed it to Al.
"This is an official document from the World Government. They are going to collect the Heavenly Gold in advance."
Al took the document and read it carefully.
This official document sent to the member states announced major personnel changes within the navy and the official inauguration of two new admirals.
As the strongest man who joined the navy through the World Conscription, he was promoted to the admiral of the navy without any suspense in his life, codenamed Fujitora.
The other is the former Vice Admiral Smoker, who used the code name White Dragon and was also promoted to Admiral of the Navy.
After this breaking news, the World Government made an unprecedented request, requiring member states to pay the Heavenly Gold six months in advance because of the need to strengthen naval armaments to cope with the turbulent New World after Whitebeard's death.
After reading the report, Al pondered for a moment and then expressed his opinion to Weiwei.
"Unless we have enough strength to break free from the constraints of the World Government, we can't save this money now. However, we can use another method to use special resources to replace the Heavenly Gold. After all, this is within the scope of conditions."
The gun hits the bird that shoots. At this moment, Alabasta cannot risk standing at the forefront of the resistance against the World Government.
By the time the World Conference comes in a year and a half, the member states liberated by the revolutionary army will refuse to pay the Heavenly Gold.
At that time, we will decide whether to follow this trend based on the actual situation in Alabasta.
After leaving Vivi, Al informed Tashigi of Smoker's promotion to admiral. She was overjoyed, but unfortunately she didn't have Smoker's contact phone bug, so she couldn't congratulate him in person.
But unfortunately, she had no way to contact Smoker directly and couldn't celebrate in person.
At this time, Al thought of Kuzan, the former admiral of the navy. Although he had left the navy, Al felt that he still needed to tell him the news. After all, he had a good relationship with Smoker.
In addition to Tashigi, Al also thought of one person, that is the former admiral Kuzan. Although he has left the navy, Al felt that he should still tell him the news of Smoker's promotion to admiral.
After all, they had a good relationship. When he participated in the Battle of Marineford, it was Smoker who brought him to meet Kuzan.
On the sea, Kuzan was riding a bicycle leisurely, and his pet penguin behind him caught up with him holding a Den Den Mushi that was sending out signals.
When the Den Den Mushi revealed Al's face, Kuzan asked, "Moshi Moshi, Al, what do you want from me?"
"Actually, there's nothing special. I just learned that Smoker has been promoted to admiral of the navy, so I came to tell you."
"Oh, I already know about this." Kuzan's tone revealed a bit of happiness, "That guy has been receiving special training from me for some time. Otherwise, with his ability, he wouldn't even be nominated."
After hearing this, Al suddenly realized that Smoker's strength was improved with the help of Kuzan. Otherwise, with his strength, he would not be able to reach the level of an admiral.
But it’s better this way. Among the current admirals of the navy, except for Kizaru who is unpredictable, Fujitora and Smoker are not the kind of people who will blindly follow the orders of the World Government.
Such changes may add more variables to future situations.
"Mr. Kuzan, what are your plans for the future? My friends and I are currently in Alabasta. If you want to find a quiet place to rest, you are always welcome here."
El, who had just invited Crocus, tried to send an invitation to Kuzan who was far away through Den Den Mushi.
"I've heard about Alabasta. You've done a great job transforming the desert into fertile land. However, I still have some things to do. Staying in one place is not suitable for me. A friend invited me to visit him before, but I was delayed at that time, so I'm planning to go see him now."
