The Sabaody Archipelago~~~
"Wha... What just happened...?"
Kid stared at the image of the small boat and Red-Haired Luffy, utterly dumbfounded.
Capone Bege took a drag of his cigarette, his expression one of disbelief. "That Straw Hat brat over there... he's truly a genius when it comes to Devil Fruit development..."
Scratchmen Apoo chimed in, "I must admit, that move is incredibly effective. With this technique, even if you encounter a storm while out at sea, you can quickly escape to safety."
Trafalgar Law smirked, "Impressive, as expected from both of our Straw Hat leaders... They're truly remarkable."
At Marine Headquarters~~~
Donquixote Doflamingo burst into laughter, "Fufufu! This red Straw Hat brat is absolutely hilarious!"
Behind him, Kuzan scratched his head, muttering, "This guy's ability to develop his Devil Fruit powers is completely off the charts..."
Meanwhile, Kizaru puckered his thick lips, "Wow~ That was unexpected. If I had eaten that fruit, I doubt I'd have thought to develop it in such a way..."
Boa Hancock gently touched her lips, murmuring softly, "That version of Luffy-kun seems even cuter..."

In the chatroom~~~
Usopp: "Oh my gosh!! Th-th-this... Isn't this just a rubber-fruit version of the Coup de Burst?!"
Franky: "This is far more practical than the Coup de Burst! Each hundred kilometers consumes 10 liters of cola with the Coup de Burst, but Luffy's sausage propulsion doesn't use anything!"
Roronoa Zoro: "Actually, Luffy's might consume even more. Probably about ten tons of food per hundred kilometers..."
Vinsmoke Sanji: "Hahaha!! Without food to replenish his energy, every hundred kilometers would probably cost us one Luffy..."
Brook: "But still, we should learn this skill! When we run out of cola fuel, this could be a lifesaving ability!"
Monkey D. Luffy: "You're right. I'll try hard to master it..."

In Mary Geoise~~~
Imzanbalong V Nasurou Santo narrowed his eyes slightly. "The power of that fruit is considered the most absurd, the most mischievous force in the world..."
Jailgroosia Satan Santo pressed his hands against his cane, speaking in a deep voice, "Indeed... Judging by that red-headed Luffy, his fruit hasn't even awakened yet, but its development has already gone down this ridiculous path."
After a brief pause, he added, "Now I understand why that Devil Fruit chose him!"
"Clearly, this Monkey D. Luffy is almost certainly the most important beacon out there!!"
Markus Maz Santo's face turned grim as he stroked his long beard. "Once this viewing system ends, notify the CP0 agents immediately. List Monkey D. Luffy as the number one wanted criminal!"

[Having left the storm zone, Luffy opened an oil-paper package and pulled out the cured meat that Dadan had prepared for him, eating it with flatbread.]
[Perhaps it was because the previous skill had consumed so much energy, but Luffy's appetite soared. Before he knew it, he had devoured all the food he brought along.]
["Looks like I didn't bring enough meat... I'm only half full..."]
[Luffy patted his stomach and stared blankly at the sea...]
[Time flew by, and two days passed. Luffy was starving...]
[Fortunately, he arrived safely at an islandâKotou Island.]
[Luffy docked his boat and entered the town, heading straight for a restaurant.]
["Boss! Hurry up and bring me some meatâI'm starving to death!"]
[After two days without food, Luffy slammed his bulging money pouch onto the table, shouting weakly.]
[Seeing Luffy's overflowing wallet, the restaurant owner's eyes widened in shock!]
[Whoa, a big spender just walked in...]
["Alright! Young man, we've got top-quality mountain beef here. Would you like to give it a try?"]
[Without hesitation, the owner began pushing the most expensive cuts of meat.]
["Sure, as long as it fills me up."]
[Luffy had hardly ever spent money since he was young and had no concept of good or bad meat. All he knew was that he had money in his hand, so he could buy food. That was all...]
[Soon, a plate of fragrant, secret-spice marinated mountain beef was placed in front of Luffy, who began devouring it ravenously!]
["By the way, boss, are there any strong people on this island?"]
[While stuffing his face with beef, Luffy casually asked.]
[His journey across the seas wasn't just to see the worldâit was also to grow stronger through battles.]
["Of course there are!!"]
[With such a big spender enjoying their premium beef, the owner naturally decided to throw in some valuable information along with the sale.]
["If you're asking about the strongest fighter around these islands, look no further than the pirate hunter Roronoa Zoro!"]
["Legend has it that he drifts across the seas like a ghost, hunting down skilled pirates and turning them in for bounty rewards."]
["His strength is absolutely unmatched... Like THIS!!"]
[The owner spoke vividly, raising his thumb to emphasize Zoro's incredible prowess.]
["Great! Where is he?"]
[After swallowing another mouthful of beef, Luffy asked excitedly.]
["Huh? You're looking for him?"]
[Hearing this, the owner's expression changed dramatically. He leaned in and whispered earnestly, "Listen, kid, I thought you were just asking casually. But if you're serious about finding him, I strongly advise you not to do it!"]
["Why?"]
[The owner's face filled with fear. He instinctively glanced toward the door before leaning closer to whisper in Luffy's ear, "They say that guy is like a demonâhe kills without hesitation!"]
["So scary..."]
[Luffy's expression turned serious.]
[He silently resolved in his heart, When sparring with someone this strong, I can't afford to be careless!]
[Yeah, I'll go all out from the start. Can't afford to trip up in a gutter fight...]
