Chapter 316: The Three Become Ability Users!
"Since that's the case, then we'll find her again!"
"I must understand why she changed like this!"
"So, I've decided to go out to sea and look for her!"
Nami made up her mind after listening to Koshiro's words, her determination unshakable.
Deep down, she felt that Nojiko was hiding something from her, and she had to find out the truth.
"Count me in!"
"And me too!"
Zoro and Kuina both responded without hesitation.
"Alright!"
"But your strengths are still lacking!"
"We'll use these Devil Fruits to make up for it!"
"Oh, by the way, Koshiro-sensei, do you recognize these Devil Fruits?"
Nami took out the three Devil Fruits and asked Koshiro.
Koshiro examined them carefully but eventually shook his head.
"I don't recognize them."
"Then let's leave it to fate!"
Nami wasn't too disappointed and turned to Zoro and Kuina.
"I'll go first!"
Zoro, despite his ambition to become a pure swordsman, realized the gap between his strength and that of Nami and Nojiko.
He no longer resisted the idea of becoming a Devil Fruit user, as it wouldn't deter him from his goal of becoming a top-tier swordsman.
Without further hesitation, Zoro picked up one of the Devil Fruits and took a big bite.
Instantly, the horrible taste almost made him spit it out.
However, with his strong willpower, he forced himself to swallow it.
A moment later, an unusual sensation filled his body, and information about the power appeared in his mind.
"How is it?"
Nami, Kuina, and Koshiro looked at him with curiosity.
"It's... Logia-type. Wind-Wind Fruit!"
(Many speculate that Monkey D. Dragon has the Wind-Wind Fruit, but here we are making a bold guess that he doesn't.)
"The power to manipulate wind! Feels pretty fitting for me!"
Zoro grinned, clearly pleased with his choice.
"Next is you, Kuina!"
Nami nodded approvingly, then turned to Kuina.
"Alright!"
Kuina carefully picked a bright red fruit that looked visually appealing.
Remembering Zoro's experience, she prepared herself for the horrible taste and quickly swallowed a chunk.
Suddenly, intense flames burst from her body.
Afraid of accidentally hurting others, Kuina quickly moved to an open area, while everyone followed curiously.
They saw fiery red wings sprout from her back, burning brightly.
After a while, Kuina managed to control the strange power, retracting the flames into her body.
"This is an incredibly powerful Devil Fruit!"
"Zoan-type. Mythical Zoan. Phoenix Fruit!"
She revealed, still marveling at the newfound power.
"Impressive!"
"This fruit completely compensates for Kuina's physical weaknesses!"
"With this power, you're destined to become a top-tier swordswoman!"
Nami smiled warmly, feeling genuinely happy for Kuina.
"Thank you!"
Kuina's lips curved into a gentle smile, trying to suppress her excitement.

"Now it's my turn!"
Becoming an ability user was the fastest way to gain strength.
Recalling how both Nojiko and Uchiha Yi had mentioned Imu repeatedly, Nami felt that everything pointed to the mysterious figure.
She needed to get stronger to face whatever awaited her.
With countless thoughts swirling in her mind, she finally took the last Devil Fruit and ate it without hesitation.
The bitter taste was overwhelming, but it was nothing compared to the pain in her heart.
As the fruit settled, an unfamiliar power surged within her.
Almost instantly, she understood the nature of the fruit.
Charge Fruit!
Any non-material object can be absorbed and stored for future use.
The storage capacity is limitless, depending on the user's physical endurance.
"How is it?"
Seeing her in thought, Kuina and Zoro couldn't help but worry.
"It's great! It's very suitable for me!"
Nami smiled brightly, finally feeling a bit of hope return.
Her mind raced with ideas for how to use the fruit's potential.
Although it seemed unremarkable, Nami knew that with her Super Potential trait, the fruit's abilities would be elevated to a whole new level.
Zoan-type fruits enhance physical attributes, especially mythical types which add special abilities on top.
Logia-type fruits grant control over natural elements, making users almost invincible unless countered with Haki or specific weaknesses.
Paramecia-type fruits, though varied, often exhibit rule-based powers, which can be highly versatile and adaptive.
And among all types, rule-based Paramecia fruits could be the most potential-rich, as long as the user knows how to develop them.

"Since we just ate the fruits, we still need time to get used to the powers."
"I'll give you a week to practice!"
"Once we're ready, we set sail!"
"We must find Nojiko and get to the bottom of this!"
Nami's expression turned serious as she addressed Zoro and Kuina.
"And remember, our journey ahead won't be easy."
"We have to be prepared for anything."
Zoro and Kuina exchanged a look and nodded firmly.
They knew this journey would be filled with challenges, but none of them planned to back down.
They would face whatever came their way—together.
