At this moment, Nami also reacted, turning to Monkey D. Luffy and asking, "You mean Rob Lucci suddenly got weaker too? Just like how Enel suddenly couldn't turn into lightning last time and got hit by you?"
"Yeah!" Luffy nodded. "That guy was super tough before, but suddenly he became super weak. So boring."
He even looked disappointed.
That expression made everyone want to hit him.
That situation had been life-threatening—and he thought it was boring?
At this moment, Nico Robin pondered for a moment and boldly guessed, "Could it be that someone used that scroll to forcibly exchange part of their power?"
Although it sounded absurd, it was the only plausible explanation.
"Perhaps it's a Devil Fruit ability—something that can forcibly swap power or items with another target," Robin added.
"That's very likely," Nami nodded.
It was the most reasonable explanation.
"But who did it? And twice so coincidentally… it's like someone is helping Luffy," Usopp asked in confusion.
This kind of luck was unbelievable.
"Who cares? As long as everyone's fine, that's all that matters!" Luffy said casually.
As always, he couldn't be bothered to think about such complicated things.
Instead, he leaned toward Nami and urged, "Quick, Nami! Check if we can learn this thing! If we can, everyone will get stronger fast!"
Last time, Nami's strength had skyrocketed after obtaining chakra and the extraction method.
Even Luffy had been jealous.
"Yeah, yeah!"
The others also crowded around.
They had completely forgotten they were still on a battlefield.
Fortunately, the Going Merry was still carrying them away.
The scene ended.
"Phew…"
Akira let out a long breath, as if he had just experienced it firsthand. "Even though I've watched this scene many times in my previous life, experiencing it like this feels completely different."
Then, his expression turned strange.
"Luffy and Nami are insanely lucky… Twice they benefited at critical moments. Their enemies not only lost power through the exchange, but even the exchanged items ended up in their hands."
"That's what you call true protagonist treatment… the world's chosen son."
Unlike certain "protagonists" like Wang Fan or Xiao Fan—
Who just keep getting screwed over.
At this moment, a crystal-like object appeared in Akira's hand, and information flooded his mind:
[Rob Lucci's Body Technique Crystal]: Contains over twenty years of Rob Lucci's physical training and complete mastery of the Six Powers (Rokushiki).
(Originally, Rob Lucci could have risen to the peak of life through his exceptional physical abilities and joined CP0… Now, his future is uncertain.)
"Haha! Just as expected—this is it! I've struck gold this time!"
After processing the information, Akira couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Finally, some good luck.
His biggest weakness had always been his physical body and stamina, preventing him from fully unleashing the power of his Rumble-Rumble Fruit and swordsmanship.
Although he had trained hard for over three months and even created the Lightning Body Tempering Technique—
It still wasn't enough.
He was too young. Training time had to be limited, or it would damage his foundation.
But now—
This crystal contained over twenty years of training from a top-tier physical genius like Rob Lucci.
It was enough to elevate his physique to the top tier of the ninja world.
Well… maybe not number one.
After all, monsters like the Third and Fourth Raikage still existed.
"I wonder how I compare to Might Dai now… Probably stronger, right?"
Akira thought as he placed the crystal against his forehead.
In the next instant, it dissolved into light and entered his body.
A surge of warmth spread from his forehead throughout his entire body.
Soon, his whole body flushed red, steam rising from his skin.
His muscles began to twitch rhythmically, and his height even started increasing.
The entire process wasn't painful at all—
It felt incredibly comfortable. Even better than soaking in a hot spring.
At the same time, countless training memories flooded his mind.
The Six Powers—Rokushiki—were engraved into his consciousness.
Combat experience, techniques, and physical conditioning—
Everything etched itself into his muscles, bones, and instincts.
After more than an hour, the transformation finally ended.
"Phew…"
Akira exhaled a stream of white vapor as his skin returned to normal.
He stood up and stretched—
Crack! Crack!
His entire body echoed with explosive sounds.
"This power… I like it."
He clenched his fists.
His strength had increased dozens of times over.
More importantly—
Every bit of it was under his complete control.
He could even manipulate each muscle fiber and pore in his body.
"So this is the Six Powers' ultimate technique—Life Return. Truly powerful."
He loved this feeling of absolute control.
"With this, my ability to absorb nutrients will improve drastically. And the efficiency of Lightning Body Tempering will skyrocket."
With full control over his body and precise lightning manipulation, tempering would become far safer and more effective.
Even his height had increased by over ten centimeters—now reaching around 1.3 meters.
Not bad for a six-year-old.
"But this change is too sudden… I'll need to use Life Return to adjust gradually. Let others get used to it over time."
Akira quickly made a plan.
"Time to test it."
With a thought, he disappeared from the spot and entered the space ring.
Arriving in an empty northern area, he prepared to test his abilities.
"Rokushiki: Soru!"
In an instant, he vanished—
Reappearing dozens of meters away.
"Geppo! Rankyaku! Tekkai! Kami-e! Shigan!"
"Life Return… Kami-e Martial Form!"
"Rokushiki Ultimate: Rokuogan!"
"Maximum Wheel: Rokuogan!"
After running through the techniques, Akira roughly assessed his combat strength.
Purely in terms of taijutsu—
He had reached elite Jonin level.
Even among elite Jonin, he was strong.
Of course, in the ninja world, ninjutsu and chakra couldn't be ignored.
Destructive power often came from those.
"Looks like I underestimated Rob Lucci's physical combat ability…"
Akira sighed in admiration.
As expected of the pirate world—
A paradise for physical fighters.
Whether it was beasts, Sea Kings, or even plants—
Everything there provided insane nutritional value, supporting extreme physical training.
