Forcibly Taking Nami Aboard, MultiverseLottery

"Optimize it."

"Ding! Optimization successful. The Devil Fruits drawn have no side effects and are immune to seawater and Seastone weaknesses."

Bai Yu smiled in satisfaction. That was enough for him.

"Open the two cards."

"Ding! Opening Devil Fruit cards now."

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining two Devil Fruits!"

1. Logia: Cloud-Cloud Fruit (Kumo Kumo no Mi)

• A One Piece-exclusive fruit. Grants rare long-distance flight abilities, cloud creation, and transformation into different types of clouds: sea clouds, island clouds, thunderclouds, etc.

2. Paramecia: Restoration Fruit (Kaifuku Kaifuku no Mi)

• A fruit from the outer worlds. Restores anything! Advanced development allows for conceptual restoration of things beyond their physical state.

Bai Yu fell silent for a moment.

The Cloud-Cloud Fruit was fine—a strong, versatile ability. But the Restoration Fruit was on a whole other level: simple yet terrifying.

It reminded him of a certain ability from another world—Orihime Inoue's Soten Kisshun from Bleach. It wasn't just restoration on the level of time or space—it was a complete rejection of any concept of harm.

"A power that transcends the world of pirates…" Bai Yu mused, calming his mind before glancing at Nami.

"Your years of fear have convinced you that Arlong is invincible," Bai Yu began. "But in reality, on the Grand Line, except for a select few, most fish-men are nothing more than slaves. Humans buy and sell them like cattle."

"In human society, they have no status."

"Their so-called strength—ten times that of a normal human—is only significant to regular people. In this world, the extraordinary always surpass the ordinary."

"And Arlong? He's just trash who ran away from the Grand Line to dominate the weaker East Blue."

Bai Yu held out his hand. "I can give you more power than Arlong. Do you want it?"

Nami looked up at Bai Yu blankly, clearly struggling to believe his words.

Bai Yu flipped his hands, revealing two strange fruits.

Kaya gasped in surprise. "Those are… Devil Fruits?"

"The legendary fruits worth at least 100 million berries each?!"

Nami's eyes lit up, turning into literal berry symbols, sparkling with greed.

Mine! They're all mine!

Before she could even speak, Bai Yu handed one of the fruits to her.

"Are… are you giving this to me? Do you know how much it's worth—"

Bai Yu stepped closer, placed the Devil Fruit in her hands, and softly rubbed her head.

"In my eyes, you are priceless."

For a moment, Kaya thought she saw tears forming in Nami's eyes, silently streaming down her face.

"Stop… stop lying to me!" Nami muttered, hurriedly wiping her tears as she gripped the Devil Fruit tightly. "This is probably fake! You big liar!"

Ahhh!

Big bastard! Why do you say such touching things?!

Nami couldn't believe the fleeting warmth she felt. She wanted to hear more.

Bai Yu's voice floated out once again:

"There are two kinds of priceless: one that's worthless, and one that's immeasurable. You… are the first kind."

"YOU BASTARD!" Nami roared, throwing a punch at Bai Yu. "Give me back my heartfelt moment!"

Kaya giggled beautifully at the scene, watching Nami's temper flare.

Bai Yu laughed, marveling at her punch. "Is this the legendary 'natural Armament Haki' in action?"

"Alright, eat it," Bai Yu said seriously. "And don't even think about selling it."

Nami hesitated, her heart bleeding at the thought of how much the fruit was worth. "How much money am I losing in one bite?!"

Reluctantly, she took a bite, only to gag violently.

"Ugh! BLEGH! KEK KEK KEK—What is this?! This isn't edible!"

Kaya, who had been watching nervously, suddenly paled. Bai Yu handed her the other Devil Fruit. "Do I have to eat this too?"

Bai Yu pinched her cheek gently and said softly, "This one's different. Eat it. It will help your body recover. Trust me."

Kaya nodded firmly and took a bite. Her eyes widened in delight.

"It's… delicious!"

Seeing Kaya enjoying the fruit, Nami felt betrayed.

"Really?! Why is hers delicious?! Mine tastes like garbage!"

Bai Yu grinned, knowing the truth. The Restoration Fruit, being a crystallization of the outer world, was indeed sweet and pleasant to eat.

"Does your body feel any different?" Bai Yu asked Kaya gently, watching her carefully.

Meanwhile, Nami, still trying to rinse her mouth, shot him a glare. "I hate you! You made me eat this! What if it doesn't work?!"

"Although technically, one bite is enough," Bai Yu replied nonchalantly, "if you don't eat the whole thing, who knows if there will be side effects? Do you want your powers to be defective?"

Reluctantly, Nami bit into the fruit again, grimacing through every chew.

"I swear… you're the worst liar ever…"

Meanwhile, Kaya finished her fruit quickly, smiling sweetly.

Nami glared at her. "Why do you look so happy?!"

"Devil Fruits are categorized into three types," Bai Yu explained, ignoring Nami's complaints. "Logia, Paramecia, and Zoan. Yours is a Logia fruit, meaning your body can become intangible and elementalized."

Nami's eyes brightened. "So… what can I do?"

Bai Yu smirked and said, "Let's test it. Take this punch."

"Boom!"

Before Nami could react, Bai Yu punched her. Her body exploded into clouds, dispersing into the air.

Kaya gasped in amazement. "That's incredible!"

"See? Logia powers make you practically untouchable."

Bai Yu marveled at the sheer versatility of the Cloud-Cloud Fruit.

Logia fruits were not to be underestimated. While Haki could counter them, the sheer advantages of elementalization—both passive and active—were immense.

"With this, Nami, you're no longer weaker than anyone else."

Nami slowly re-formed from her cloud state, her expression a mixture of wonder and excitement.

"This… this power…"

Bai Yu crossed his arms. "Now, stop being scared of Arlong. You're stronger than him already."
