Chapter 272: Dual Devil Fruit Mode, Successfully Developed!
Chapter 272: Dual Devil Fruit Mode, Successfully Developed!
Seeing Robin regain her youthful appearance stunned everyone, even Uchiha Yi was genuinely surprised.
In his heart, he now had a clear understanding of the abilities of this Logia-type Carnation Fruit.
If used properly, it was undoubtedly a god-tier fruit.
"Brother Yi, give me a Draw a Circle to Imprison skill!"
"From now on, I'll use this body to walk outside while keeping my main body inside!"
After getting familiar with her newfound abilities, Nuo Qigao expressed her idea to Uchiha Yi.
"Sure!"
Uchiha Yi fully supported her decision.
This way, anyone unaware of Nuo Qigao's ability would be completely powerless against her.
Even an Admiral or an Emperor of the Sea wouldn't be able to do anything.
Of course, the foundation of everything still depended on her own power.
If an Admiral or Emperor kept consuming her energy in battle, she wouldn't last forever.
Once her main body's vitality was exhausted, she would die.
This proved that nothing in the world was truly invincible—only relatively invincible.
Afterward, Nuo Qigao found a flower pot, transferred her main body onto a green leaf, and planted it in the pot.
Finally, Uchiha Yi drew a circle around the flower pot, activating his Draw a Circle to Imprison skill.
With this, Nuo Qigao's main body was completely protected inside, making it impossible for anyone to harm it.
However, nothing was ever absolute.
To prevent any accidents, Uchiha Yi assigned an AI guardian to watch over it.
Once everything was set up, Nuo Qigao's main body could rest peacefully while her consciousness transferred to her new form.
Anyone unaware of this secret would never notice anything unusual.
Moreover, this new body could still utilize her Devil Fruit abilities!
Since the raw abilities of a Devil Fruit needed time to be refined into techniques, Nuo Qigao found a quiet place to start developing her powers.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Yi assigned the others to train, pushing them to master Haki as soon as possible.
Only by doing so could they navigate the New World more smoothly in the future!
At the same time, Uchiha Yi began contemplating his research on the dual Devil Fruit mode using Nuo Qigao's Carnation Fruit as a reference.

Developing the Dual Devil Fruit Mode
"AI, generate a human!"
"Camera… Lily Carnation!"
Soon, two experimental subjects appeared before Uchiha Yi.
The manifested Lily Carnation, lacking "nutritional support," quickly began to wither.
Uchiha Yi acted swiftly, picking up a pen he had prepared earlier and painstakingly writing the term "Photosynthesis" onto the Lily Carnation.
Immediately, a randomly generated attribute appeared:
[Entry: Photosynthesis]
Quality: Purple
Attribute: Light Energy Conversion Rate +210
[Entry Attribute Details:]
Green (Common): 1–10
Blue (Rare): 10–100
Purple (Epic): 100–500
Gold (Legendary): 500–1000
Red (Mythical): 5000+
Prismatic (God-Tier): 10,000–100,000
Granting this attribute significantly enhanced the plant's ability to convert light energy.
It fundamentally altered its survival method, eliminating its reliance on consuming human vitality.
Now, with just water and sunlight, it could survive indefinitely.
The next step was to fuse it with a human, similar to how Baron Tamago integrated his fruit abilities into his body.
By transplanting the Lily Carnation onto a person's shoulder and feeding it a Devil Fruit, it could function as an "External Spirit Bone."
Seeing that the Lily Carnation was no longer withering, Uchiha Yi knew the Photosynthesis entry was effective.
Now, he needed to test if the Lily Carnation could peacefully coexist with a human host.
Reaching out, he transferred it onto an AI's shoulder.
As expected, the two entities integrated smoothly, with no signs of rejection.
"Excellent! Now it's time to see if both of them can consume Devil Fruits!"
After observing for a while and confirming no abnormalities, Uchiha Yi took out two Devil Fruits.
One was a Zoan-type Toad Fruit, and the other was a Paramecia-type Whisper-Whisper Fruit.
Since both abilities were relatively weak, using them as experimental materials was no loss.
"You eat this one, and you eat this one."
Following his instructions, the AI consumed the Toad Fruit, while the Lily Carnation ate the Whisper-Whisper Fruit.
After waiting for a while to let the powers take effect, it was time to test the results.
"Activate your Devil Fruit abilities!"
Uchiha Yi watched them closely, issuing his command.
"Understood!"
The AI responded in a deep voice and immediately transformed into a massive toad, crouching on the ground.
A peculiar phenomenon followed—the AI's head now had a flower growing from it.
"Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit!"
Simultaneously, Uchiha Yi's ears were filled with the sound of frog croaks.
His Kenbunshoku Haki (Observation Haki) detected that only he could hear these sounds.
It was likely the effect of the Whisper-Whisper Fruit, allowing the croaks to be transmitted directly and discreetly.
However, due to the poor compatibility between the two abilities, their synergy wasn't particularly impressive.
Still, overall, it was an incredible achievement.
"So, does this mean… my Dual Devil Fruit Mode theory is a success?"
Looking at this combination of a human and a plant, Uchiha Yi couldn't help but feel exhilarated.
However, further observation was necessary before widely implementing this method.
If all went well, he could let Robin try it next.
Pairing Robin's Hana Hana no Mi (Flower-Flower Fruit) with the Childlike Fruit would render many opponents completely powerless against her.
Of course, the Childlike Fruit had already been consumed by someone else.
They would have to wait for the Yami Yami no Mi (Dark-Dark Fruit) to appear so they could steal it.

Testing the Dual Fruit Concept on Himself
With no immediate issues in sight, Uchiha Yi generated another Lily Carnation.
He applied the same Photosynthesis entry and transplanted it onto his own shoulder.
At that moment, Uchiha Yi clearly sensed that the Lily Carnation lacked intelligence.
Its ability to speak was merely due to its unique biological properties.
As long as its needs were met, he could control it freely with his thoughts.
"This is incredible!"
Experiencing it firsthand, Uchiha Yi was thrilled by its potential.
Eager to test further, he took out a Paramecia-type Jacket Fruit and fed it to the Lily Carnation.
"Now, try using your ability!"
He commanded the plant through his mind.
In the next second, the Lily Carnation on his shoulder rapidly extended wooden tendrils, wrapping tightly around his body.
It then transformed into a wooden jacket.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Uchiha Yi knocked on the jacket, producing crisp sounds.
He gradually increased his strength, testing its durability.
Finally, he determined that its defensive power was only moderately useful to him.
