Kong Tai looked at the three guys with amusement.
Turning around, he took out the remaining white Devil Fruit from the box in Indigo's hand.
Seeing Kong Tai's action, Alo and the other two stopped simultaneously, staring at Kong Tai curiously.
A flicker of longing flashed in Hua's eyes. He glanced at Alo's transformation. If anyone on the ship was the most impatient, it had to be him.
Before, he and Alo used to compete on who was more laid-back. Now that Alo had taken off, he also wanted to get stronger!
Otherwise, wouldn't he be mocked by Alo every day in the future?
Kong Tai swept his gaze across Hua and Tao.
He could clearly feel Hua's nervousness, while Tao seemed a bit indifferent.
He lowered his head, looking at the white fruit in his hand, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
This fruit might be very useless. Unlike Ant-Ant, he could clearly feel strong potential.
As for the "Rabbit Fruit," he really didn't know what its strong points were.
Regarding the red-eyed rabbit and berserk states, these were purely his guesses.
If they ate the fruit and no special abilities appeared, then it would be better not to eat it!
At the very least, not eating it meant not fearing seawater. If they ate this thing and their strength didn't increase much, they would have an absolutely fatal weakness.
That would be quite a loss!
Looking at Hua's longing eyes, he made up his mind and decided to let Hua decide for himself.
He didn't give it to Tao because Tao was the strongest of the three.
He was also the most patient and powerful.
"Hua, whether to eat this fruit or not, you decide for yourself."
Kong Tai looked at Hua and said seriously, "This might be a very useless fruit, or it might be a very powerful fruit as I suspect."
"What is your decision?"
Looking at Kong Tai's serious eyes, and feeling Alo's provocative gaze, Hua did not hesitate too much.
He said firmly, "I want to eat it."
Devil Fruits, for ordinary people, were unattainable supreme treasures.
But for him, they were now within reach.
There was no need to hesitate. Even if it was a very useless fruit, could it be more useless than he was now?
"Alright!"
Staring at Hua's determined eyes, Kong Tai tossed the rabbit fruit in his hand to him.
"Since you've made up your mind, eat it quickly!"
Everyone watched Hua with anticipation.
Especially Alo, who had personally experienced the unforgettable taste of the Devil Fruit.
Just thinking about it made him feel sick.
Looking at the white fruit in his hand, Hua thought of Alo's miserable state earlier, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
Then, his eyes behind his glasses widened, and a fierce aura emanated from him.
He looked at the rabbit fruit as if it were an enemy.
Fiercely opening his mouth, he swallowed the rabbit fruit in his hand in one gulp.
Then he swallowed hard, and only when he was almost rolling his eyes from being choked did he manage to swallow it down.
Everyone around was shocked by Hua's unconventional method.
Alo looked at Hua, his face full of regret, tears flowing in his heart.
Why didn't he just swallow it in one go!
Now, thinking back to how it felt like eating shit, and he had only taken a few bites, he felt nauseous.
Kong Tai looked at this guy in shock.
Isn't this the same way Monkey D. Luffy ate the Devil Fruit?
Truly amazing!
Only Hua, with his obese physique, could swallow such a large fruit in one gulp.
The moment Hua ate the fruit, he transformed into a fat white rabbit.
He stood there, his eyes blood-red, exuding an extremely chaotic aura.
He seemed to be holding back something, his whole body trembling.
Seeing Hua's appearance, Kong Tai seemed to understand something and quickly signaled everyone to step back a few paces.
This guy seemed unable to control himself. Judging by his aura, it was indeed a berserk, chaotic aura.
It was more than ten times stronger than before.
It seemed he had guessed correctly again. It was truly the favor of Lady Luck.
He managed to stumble upon this.
Looking at Hua transformed into a rabbit, he couldn't help but smile at the corners of his mouth.
This rabbit was clearly an extremely powerful fruit. He wondered why it was considered garbage.
Perhaps the illustrations were wrong, and rabbits also came in different breeds.
And Alo's ants, they clearly weren't ordinary ants.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but give a big thumbs up to Shiki in his heart.
What a great master!
Not only did he teach him a lot of swordsmanship and Haki techniques, but he also gave him a doctor with superb medical skills.
Finally, he even took care of the navigator.
Now, even the "Rabbit Fruit," which he thought was the most useless, turned out to be a powerful Zoan-type fruit.
Looking at Hua, who was gradually gaining control of himself and whose berserk aura was disappearing.
Everyone quickly gathered around, looking at Hua with curiosity, awaiting his explanation.
Hua looked at everyone's expectant gazes and haughtily transformed back into human form.
However, his human form was a bit of an eyesore.
A perfectly good fat strong man now had two rabbit ears.
And from his originally plump buttocks, a fat, fluffy rabbit tail emerged.
This would be acceptable on a beautiful girl.
But on a strong man, it was a bit perverted.
Sensing everyone's strange gazes, Hua looked confused.
He lowered his head and looked at himself.
It wasn't until he saw the tail on his buttocks that he suddenly understood.
Then his face rapidly turned red, and he was so embarrassed that he darted into the kitchen like a rabbit.
With a "bang," the door was shut.
Watching Hua flee in embarrassment, everyone burst into laughter.
Among them, Alo laughed the loudest.
He fell to the ground, slapping the deck with all four hands, laughing so hard he couldn't catch his breath.
Kong Tai suppressed his laughter and looked at everyone.
"Okay, okay, stop laughing. It's just a rabbit tail, what's so funny about that!"
As he said this, he couldn't help but bend over, cover his stomach, and burst into laughter.
...
Behind the cabin door, Hua, hearing the laughter from outside, his face was so red it looked like it would bleed.
He took a deep breath.
Turning his head to look at the kitchen, he suddenly saw the refrigerator and a flash of inspiration struck him.
He quickly put aside his awkwardness and rushed to the refrigerator.
Opening the refrigerator, he began to search.
After a while, he took out a bag of carrots from the refrigerator.
He stared at the carrots in his hand for a moment, then turned to the stove, put on his chef's hat, tied his apron, and began to cook.
Outside, the others heard the commotion in the kitchen and thought this guy had channeled his shame into appetite.
They stopped laughing and were about to go knock on the door.
The kitchen door suddenly opened from the inside.
Hua came out holding a plate, his face no longer showing any shame or awkwardness.
He walked generously to Kong Tai, excitedly raised the plate, and presented it to Kong Tai.
"Kong Tai. Hurry up and try this new ingredient I've cooked."
Everyone looked at Hua, completely baffled.
Had this guy gone crazy from shame? Did he really think he was a rabbit? He was cooking carrots.
Kong Tai's smile faded as he looked at Hua's excited expression.
He could clearly feel Hua's excitement at this moment, an excitement like discovering a great treasure.
He lowered his head to look at the carrots on the plate, solemnly picked one up, and examined it carefully.
Hmm! It looked no different from an ordinary carrot.
Without thinking further, he brought it to his mouth and took a bite.
"Hmm!"
With just one bite, his face showed an expression of extreme shock. This was the second time he had made such an expression today.
He looked at the carrot in his hand, then looked up at Hua with shining eyes, as if looking at a peerless treasure.
"Is this a Devil Fruit ability?"
"Mmm! Mmm!!"
Hua nodded repeatedly.
Seeing the excited expressions of Kong Tai and Hua, the others sensed something.
They all reached out and took a carrot from Hua's plate, and began to eat.
"Wow!"
"No way!"
Tao and Alo looked at Hua with flushed faces.
With this, they too would become strong in the future.
Indigo was even more shocked.
He didn't know how many emotional ups and downs his mood had experienced today.
He looked at the carrot in his hand and once again mourned for Shiki.
Even Kuina, after eating the carrot, showed a rare expression of shock.
These carrots were not just carrots; they were their elixirs and food for becoming strong.
Because this thing could rapidly restore stamina.
With this, they could train to their hearts' content in Kong Tai's spatial domain.
