One Piece: Starting With Flame-Flame Fruit

Just as they were both beginning to relax, Tony noticed something unusual. From Enel's body, a strange, apple-shaped object was floating up.

This caught Tony by surprise.

"Hey, Nami! What's that?"

"Huh?"

Nami tilted her head, looking in the direction Tony was pointing.

She shook her head, saying, "There's nothing there, Tony. Are you trying to mess with me again?"

Nami crossed her arms, looking irritated.

However, Tony quickly realized that he wasn't mistaken; it was just that Nami couldn't see it.

Thanks to his Sharingan, Tony could see things that ordinary people couldn't. His eyes weren't a mere illusion in this world, and their potential was immense.

Furthermore, Tony carried a system with him. As the "Advancement System" progressed, his Sharingan would eventually evolve into the Mangekyō Sharingan and, eventually, the even more terrifying Rinnegan! These abilities would become one of his most powerful and lethal tools in his future domination of the Grand Line.

"Amaterasu... Chibaku Tensei! Susanoo... Six Paths of Power!"

These were all powers granted by his eyes!

And now, with the death of the Sky God Enel, his Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability would disappear.

What Tony was seeing was the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, a Logia-type Devil Fruit that Enel had possessed, now in its soul form, preparing to fly off and merge with another fruit somewhere in the world.

In this world, Devil Fruits were unique treasures; no two fruits with the same power could exist simultaneously. Only when the user died would the Devil Fruit power vanish and find its way into a new fruit.

Devil Fruits were referred to as the sea's secret treasures, and now, in front of Tony, was a rare Rumble-Rumble Fruit from the Logia category. He couldn't let this opportunity slip by. He had to claim it for himself. A greedy glint appeared in his eyes for the first time. He knew how powerful the Rumble-Rumble Fruit was—it was a top-tier fruit in the Logia category, with immense destructive power and speed, on par with the best of them.

Tony wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth.

Stretching out his hand, he prepared to use a binding technique. He knew that Armament Haki was one way to counter a Devil Fruit user, and since his Kido had already merged with Haki, he was confident he could control it.

"Bakudo #73: Falling Mountain Crystal!"

"Swish!"

In an instant, a cubic crystal coffin appeared, encapsulating both Enel's corpse and the soul form of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, trapping them within the crystal coffin to prevent its escape.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Rumble-Rumble Fruit relentlessly slammed against the crystal coffin, trying to break free, but it was futile. Without a user, it was just an ordinary fruit—without any of the power it once held.

Tony's lips curled into a small smile, his heart pounding with excitement. He never imagined that coming to this sky island would provide such an opportunity. Not only did he defeat Enel, but he could also take the Rumble-Rumble Fruit as his own.

If things went as Tony hoped, it would make him even stronger on his future journey through the New World—whether he consumed it himself or gave it to one of his crewmates. The Rumble-Rumble Fruit would surely shine in the future, becoming a headache-inducing asset for his enemies.

"Nami! Quick! Throw all the fruits you have into the crystal coffin! Now!"

Tony urgently shouted.

Nami looked at him in confusion. From her perspective, Tony's actions made no sense. Why was he so serious about a dead body...?

But seeing his excited expression, Nami quickly trusted him. His enthusiasm reminded her of the thrill she felt when seeing a large sum of money.

Without hesitation, she ran forward, pulled out a small pouch of fruits, and poured them into the crystal coffin. Then, she slowly backed up to Tony's side.

"Well done, Nami!"

"Thanks to you bringing these fruits, we were able to avoid a massive loss! If you hadn't, we could have ended up losing something worth hundreds of billions of Berries!"

...

In the grand design of fate, it was somehow destined that the fruits Nami had brought were meant for her and Tony to stave off hunger. Who would have thought they'd end up serving such an unexpected purpose?

Nami's mind was struck by a thunderclap. Her mouth trembled, unable to utter a single word.

Hundreds of billions? What did that even mean? For someone like Nami, who loved money above all else, it was too overwhelming to comprehend. If it were stacks of bills, she imagined they could fill several small houses!

In her mind, she could already picture herself scattering money from the balcony of a massive villa.

Unable to contain herself, she grabbed Tony's arm and asked urgently, "...Hey, hey! Tony, explain this to me! You're saying that by tossing a few fruits, we could make hundreds of billions? Is that for real?!"

Tony smiled mysteriously, teasing her, keeping Nami on the edge of her seat.

To Tony, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit was worth much more than just a few hundred billion... The Logia-type Devil Fruits were widely regarded as the most powerful in the world. Their worth couldn't be measured in mere money—whether it was the Four Emperors or the Marines, everyone was willing to pay a massive price to seize one.

After all, these Devil Fruits were the key to rapidly increasing one's strength. Especially the rare Logia-types.

Tony's focus remained entirely on the crystal coffin, watching its every move. He couldn't afford to make any mistakes because this fruit was far too important to him.

Inside the crystal coffin, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit had been slamming against the walls in an attempt to escape. As the fruits around it arrived, it seemed almost alive, swirling for a while before finally merging with a small pineapple. Before long, the pineapple turned completely blue, unmistakably marking it as an extraordinary fruit.

Tony, seeing the transformation, immediately released his Kido, rushing forward to carefully cradle the fruit in his hands, unable to stop admiring it.

Thanks to his Sharingan and unique Kido abilities, Tony successfully secured the Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

"Nami! This is the priceless treasure worth hundreds of billions! The rare Logia Rumble-Rumble Fruit!"

Tony waved the fruit in front of Nami, who was now thoroughly stunned.

"Nami, we need to sell this fruit immediately! We'd never have to worry about money again, not just in this life, but the next, and the next, and... well, forever!"

Nami's eyes sparkled with golden light, completely blinded by the immense value of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit. She was completely mesmerized, her hands rubbing together, drool already pooling beneath her.
