Chapter 531: 'Star Gate's Rank is Higher Than 'Door-Door'!
"Issho wants to stay at Marine Headquarters?"
On the Empty Throne inside Noah's Ark, Lord Imu looked at the report written personally by Sengoku and delivered by the Five Elders, feeling quite surprised.
However, after reading Issho's thoughts, he understood and thought to himself, "Indeed, this is very 'Fujitora'."
As the Marine Admiral most praised by One Piece Fans in his Previous Life, wasn't it precisely because he possessed such benevolence and virtue in his Heart?
It was indeed hard to imagine someone like Issho participating in the invasion War against Other Worlds.
"Alright then, such a person shouldn't be overly pressured, as that would only lead to various problems and turn a good thing into a bad one."
Lord Imu agreed after a moment of consideration.
Anyway, in his Heart, the Marines and Air Force would become one family sooner or later.
After Issho finished the 'Summit War Challenge Match', he would let him stay at Marine Headquarters to be responsible for the Defense Mission of the Sea Star Mainland, and at the same time, utilize the Gravity-Gravity Fruit Ability in other aspects.
So, let's think about what the Gravity-Gravity Fruit could do.
One, keep Asteroids in Space to smash people as Meteorites. Two, generate a Gravity Field to suppress people on the ground or collapse objects. Three, use a Reverse Gravity Field to make objects fly.
Lord Imu inwardly complained that no matter how he looked at it, it seemed more suitable for the Air Force.
However, he continued to think. In terms of brainstorming, as a Transmigrator, he couldn't possibly lose. He just needed to recall similar Abilities from those Fantasy Works.
But after thinking for a while, he found that Gravity-based Techniques were largely similar, generally involving area suppression or single-target suppression.
"I wonder if Issho can imitate Pain's 'Chibaku Tensei'. That Technique seems more inclined towards attraction..."
Lord Imu knew that although Gravity was generated by attraction, Gravity couldn't be equated with attraction because of this. Therefore, he wasn't sure if Issho could develop attraction-based Techniques using the Gravity-Gravity Fruit.
But he could note it down and let him try to Research it.
Just as he was holding the luxurious Pen in his hand and writing his Opinion below the application Report, a Flash of Inspiration suddenly flashed through his mind, causing his Gaze to brighten sharply.
"That's right!"
"Gravity can be used for Training!"
At this moment, Stussy, wearing High Heels and swaying her slender figure, walked quickly into the Main Hall along the long Red Carpet, her face full of Excitement.
In her left Palm, she held a small model made entirely of Gold. It had identical openings at both ends, but the middle section was very narrow, somewhat resembling a flattened hourglass.
"Lord Imu, the Experiment you instructed me to try earlier was successful!"
"Hmm?"
Lord Imu was initially displeased at being interrupted, but upon hearing her words and seeing the object in her hand, a hopeful Smile appeared on his face.
"I hope you don't disappoint me."
"Please rest assured, Lord Imu, I have already tested it twenty times, and there have been no Accidents!" Stussy was full of confidence.
"Then show it to me."
Lord Imu rested his arm on the Throne's armrest, supporting his cheek with his right Palm, looking down at Stussy below the platform with interest.
The latter first gently placed the Golden model on the Red Carpet, then canceled the Ability Effect applied to its surface, causing it to quickly enlarge and return to its Original Copy Volume.
This also attracted the curious Gaze of the Kuja Guards in the Main Hall.
A sandglass-shaped Golden Tunnel appeared on the Open Ground in front of the triple platform. It was nearly twenty meters high and five meters wide at both ends, with a middle passage length of about seven or eight meters, but a Height of only two meters.
"This is the 'Shrinking Tunnel', a special Items based on 'Punk Metal' and the 'Small-Small Fruit'!"
Stussy had a beautiful Smile on her face and patted its bright golden, cold surface with her hand.
"I fixed the Small-Small Fruit Ability within the internal Space of this Tunnel, and then fixed the effect of releasing the Ability at the Entrance/Exit at both ends."
"This way, objects or Creatures with a Height between three meters and twenty meters will first shrink to two meters when entering the Tunnel, walk through the middle passage Zone, and when they come out from the Entrance/Exit at the other end, they will quickly recover to their Original Copy Body Size."
Lord Imu was very satisfied after hearing this.
The Size problem of Small Stargates had always troubled the World Government, and Medium Star Gates only had Upgrade Authority once every three years. So, he had been thinking about whether he could use Devil Fruit Abilities to solve this.
At that time, he hadn't given the Door-Door Fruit to Oimo yet. Moreover, recent Experiments showed that the Door-Door Fruit's Space could not connect to the World on the other side through the 'Star Gate'.
Therefore, whether it was Human, or this Noah's Ark wanting to return to the Sea Star Mainland, they needed to first return to the Real World from this Space, and then have Stussy use her Ability to shrink them before they could smoothly pass through the 'Star Gate'.
This indicated that the 'Star Gate's Rank was higher than the 'Door-Door Fruit'.
Getting back to the main topic.
In short, he thought of further utilizing the Small-Small Fruit, which was why he had previously sent Stussy to help shrink Warships and such.
But the problem was that Stussy was a single Human, and his Secretary-General, so it was impossible for her to stay at the Star Gate Base for a long Time. He could only find a way to fix the Small-Small Fruit Ability onto a certain object.
With the idea in mind, Lord Imu naturally gave her the Order.
However, at that Time, Stussy seemed unable to attach her Ability to objects for a long Time, and in her disappointment, she stopped paying too much attention to it.
But he didn't expect this Woman to not give up!
"You just mentioned 'Punk Metal'?"
Hearing the question from above, Stussy lowered her head Respectfully and replied, "Yes, Lord Imu. Actually, my Small Ability Awakened last month."
"It's just that after the Awakening, although I can indeed apply the Ability to objects, I need to constantly maintain the Ability from close by. Clearly, this still has a big Gap compared to the Effect you hoped for."
"So I took the initiative to contact the Academy of Science and asked if there was a way to solve this problem. Then I heard about 'Punk Metal' from Dean Vegapunk."
"It is said to be a 'Memory Alloy' that inherently possesses 'Lineage Factor'. By fusing a little of my 'Lineage Factor' with it, the Small-Small Fruit's Awakening Ability can be fixed onto it for a relatively long Time."
Lord Imu understood after hearing this introduction. It was a Prototype Product of a 'Pacifista' that still had quite a few flaws.
"Then, how many of these things can you make?"
Stussy replied regretfully, "It's very regrettable. Perhaps it's due to insufficient Training of my Ability, or perhaps this Ability that can maintain the Awakening effect for a long Time away from the Ability User is unique. After trying many times, I found that I can only create this one."
"Is that so..."
Lord Imu nodded. Having one was already very good; he shouldn't be too greedy. He then said, "Immediately have Saul come over!"
Regardless, it was best to witness the Effect firsthand.
"Yes!"
Stussy quickly took out a Transponder Snail and conveyed the Order to the 'Giant God Soldiers' Commander.
[Roar Roar Roar Roar----]
A moment later, a series of air blast Roars sounded from outside.
Immediately after, the huge Hall Door was pushed open by a Giant wearing Full Golden Blood-Patterned Armor.
He first knelt on the Red Carpet beside the 'Shrinking Tunnel', then took off his Golden Helmet and gently placed it in front of him, his White Cloak draped on the ground behind him.
"'Giant God Soldiers' Commander, Jaguar D. Saul, pays respects, Lord Imu!"
Lord Imu casually instructed, "Walk through the Tunnel next to you."
"Yes!"
Saul immediately Stood Up, then lowered his head slightly and walked into the Tunnel. Perhaps because he had eaten a Mythical Zoan Fruit, his current Height was already twenty-two meters.
Within a few Breaths, his figure reappeared at the Exit on the other end!
"Good!"
Lord Imu was greatly pleased.
