Caesar's artificial fruit is very special. Its raw material is a special substance called sad, which is blended with the blood of different animals. As a result, the type of smile created is unknown. No one knows what kind of ability can be obtained by eating it.
To be precise, most people, including Caesar, the creator, don't know whether one can gain abilities by eating this fruit. The original Mads did not have any requirements for character, and anyone who had the ability could join.
Quinn still has someone to control him, and he has to consider the consequences when conducting experiments, but Caesar is different. He has no limit. He doesn't care what the consequences will be if he eats it. Anyway, it's not him who is eating it.
Arceus couldn't determine the type, but he could guarantee that this thing wouldn't turn into some weird creature after eating it.
"Sha Yina, just find two people to come over. We have something new to try."
"No special requirements?"
"The weaker ones are the ones who have no chance of being blessed by God at first glance."
"Yes, I understand, please wait a moment."
This requirement is not difficult. Today's four emperors all have their own large fleets. In addition to elite cadres, there are also a lot of miscellaneous soldiers to fill the number. Those who stay in Wano are relatively elite, and these people are just suitable for artificial devil fruits.
This was bought with real money and cannot be wasted casually.
...
At the same time, outside Onigashima, two pirates stood guard by the door boredly.
Rotom electronic gates have long been popularized on Ghost Island. Rotoms are responsible for all ordinary sentry duties, but the position of gatekeeper has never been cancelled.
Pirates are not a group suitable for idleness. There are very few pirates like Manderfish who are dedicated to living an honest life. In order to give these pirates something to do, many positions are dual positions of Pokémon and pirates.
"Ah, Lord Kaido is out again. Guess which guy is going to be unlucky this time?"
"Who knows, I guess it's the useless navy, but where are the people who are changing the guard? How long has it been?"
"Understand, those guys had a party yesterday and drank too much. We agreed that we should stand a little longer."
"I'm talking about a while, it's almost turned into a day, I have to let these two guys make up for it tomorrow..."
They are pirates after all, unlike the members of the Knights in the monastery, who stand guard just like stakes. Things like skipping work happen from time to time. Anyway, as long as someone is standing up, it doesn't matter.
"You two, come in with me."
"Yes, Lady Sha Yina!"
The two looked at each other. Although they didn't know why, they always heard the officials right. Metal doors opened one after another, and the two came to a floor that they usually had no permission to set foot on.
"Lord Holy Beast, people have brought it."
After bringing the two people into the room, Sha Yina stepped aside and made room.
"Ah... Lord Arceus?! Do you have anything to do with us?"
"Yeah, what can we do."
Although they stay on Ghost Island, they don't have many opportunities to get along with captain-level figures, let alone being specially called here.
"A chance, these are two special devil fruits."
There were a total of 20 samples sent by Doflamingo. In Arceus' eyes, only two could be completed, so the success rate was one-tenth.
"It's unknown what their abilities are, but it must be some kind of animal type. Now we need to see the effects of eating it. Are you two willing to try it?"
Looking at the two strange-looking apples floating in front of them, neither of them hesitated. They grabbed the fruits and bit into them without hesitation.
This seemed like an experiment, but it was also an opportunity. Arceus had found them. If they refused now due to timidity, even though nothing big would happen, it would be impossible to encounter such an opportunity later.
When they embark on the path of pirates, they know what they may encounter in the future, and no matter how strange the power they are given is, they are willing to give it a try.
The only advantage of the Devil Fruit made by Caesar may be that it is not that unpalatable. According to the original timeline, Orochi distributed the defective fruits to the villagers in the Leak Detection Village. If these fruits still have that unpalatable taste , they won’t eat it anymore.
The two fruits disappeared quickly. No weird organs grew on their bodies, nor did they turn into weird people who could only laugh.
They just ate the fruit, and they haven't mastered that power yet.
"Lord Arceus, now..."
"It won't take long to get familiar with the power and then transform."
The two of them began to feel the power in their bodies. They had never eaten pork, but they had seen pigs running. There were so many animal-type ability users in the Hundred Beasts, and they had also heard about the changes in form.
Within a few minutes, their bodies began to swell. One of them's skin turned dark, the clothes on his back were torn, and rows of black and white thorns grew out. Through this fruit, he gained the ability of a porcupine.
The other man had black feathers growing all over his body, and his arms turned into wings, which seemed to be the ability of a crow.
Except for the Falcon Bell of Alabasta and the fruit modified by Arceus, other bird fruits will turn their arms into wings, and Caesar's creations also follow this principle.
Then they switched to animal forms and had the standard three-stage transformation of the animal system.
"Porcupine and crow, it's okay. It's okay. Just do whatever you need to do."
After confirming that there was no problem with the fruit, the two returned to their posts. Neither of them understood why they gained the power of the fruit after standing guard for others.
...
"Can I still get this kind of benefit if I take over the job?"
"I don't know. It seems that I should work more overtime in the future. Brother Manderfesh may be right. Your efforts will always be rewarded..."
The two were discussing where to go for a drink to celebrate in the evening, when two people not far away walked over arm-in-arm.
"Harper, Rory, are you two happy?"
The two of them went out paddling and fishing, and played in Baiwu for a while before coming to hand over their duties. They thought they would be nagged, but in the end they were both smiling and had no idea what they were talking about.
"What's wrong with your clothes? Why did the back and cuffs explode?"
"Hahahaha, you two idiots have no idea what you are missing."
As they said that, the two transformed again, Harper fidgeting with his wings, and Rory studying the spines on his back to see what role they could play.
"Those who can??"
"No, weren't you still ordinary people last night??"
"Yes, but during the time you were fishing, we gained brand new abilities.
Not long ago, Lord Arceus and Lord Kaido seemed to have gotten something good again. If you come to hand over your shift on time, wouldn’t this ability be yours? "
