Tensura pirates adventures! - The Beginning

That's Intense!

The three of them thought for a while, then finally all of them, except Koby, agreed to get the devil fruit powers.

"Are you sure Koby?"

"Hai Rimuru san. I feel like it will be better for me without a devil fruit. I idolize Garp san, and he also doesn't have a devil fruit"

"Alright then, Akkun and Helmeppo, drink your glasses" 

With that, both of them gulped the entire liquid in one go.

"So how does it feel?"

"It feels awesome Rimuru san. The Goro Goro no mi is amazing! I feel like I m invincible now!" 

"Hai hai don't get on a high horse just yet. You are still weak" said Rimuru, which brought Akuta back to the earth.

"Hai"

"And you um.... "

"Its Helmeppo" said Helmeppo

"Right. Hepollo kun. How do you feel?"

Koby just chuckled a bit, which irritated Helmeppo.

"Hai I think this sickel sickel fruit will be a good match for me. It suits my fighting style" said Helmeppo, although in his heart he he wished to get a cool devil fruit like the lightning devil fruit as well.

"Alright then, so now listen to your schedule for the next week. You will train in the morning, in the day, in the evening, and in the night as well! No breaks at all, not even for drinking water!" said Rimuru with a smiling face and closed eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw the three of them standing with their mouths open, as if they were statues.

"Yosh! Looks like you like it"

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN!"

"Ahem I apologize, but don't you think this schedule is a bit too harsh Rimuru san? I admit we need to train as much as possible, but 7 days nonstop with no breaks to even eat or drink is just...."

"Oh You don't need to worry about that. You see Luminas san here can instantly restore your health to full, so you will basically have no need to eat, drink or sleep, as long as you take regular splashed of her elixir" explained Rimuru.

"Yeah right. That's how we were able to go to the moon. Dino did the teleportation, but he was still unable to take us there in one go, so we needed to be exposed to her elixir the entire way so that we could live without breathing in the vacuum" said Guy

"Ahem. At this point I m not even gonna ask why and how you went to the moon, but if what you say is true, then I m up for the challenge" said Akuta, excited.

"Good. And also you won't be needing it to save you from thirst or hunger alone. I mean you would be too busy coming back from the brink of death to be worrying about such things Haha" said Rimuru happily, which only sent even more shivers down their spine.

"Y-You mean?" asked Koby hesitantly.

"Right. You will be fighting against Milim, Leon, Dagruel and Guy in shifts, and none of them will be holding back any more than what is needed to kill you in one hit. And then you will be immediately restored by Luminas, and the cycle will continue" said Rimuru 

"Alright. I believe in it. Since haki evolves in the heat of battle, experiencing death countless times over the next 7 days is going to take us to new heights."

"Yosh, then we will be beginning your training tomorrow morning. Rest all you want for today."

"Hai" 

"Alright then, is there anything else left to discuss?"

"No Rimuru sama. Other than the matter regarding that white worm"

"Yeah Right. First lets get whatever info we can out of him. Luminas, please bring our VVIP guest to our VVIP guest room"

"Right Rimuru, on it" said Luminas, and then locked herself with Arnold in the 'Torture Room', which was fortunately sound proof, so that the meetings outside could take place in peace...

"By the way how did Luminas manage to do that Rimuru? I am curious as well" asked Leon, and Dagruel looked as if he wanted to know too.

"Right. So basically you remember how big mom got her power right? Luminas did something similar. She immersed the entire body of the host in elixir, and then started removing their body parts one by one, until only a few cells are left. The cells in this case, since they are immersed in elixir, are very well alive and have still have the devil fruit power, but they lack any intelligence to be able to use it. And then it is simply stored in a glass. The glass now has that living devil fruit user's cells, well and alive, and anyone drinking it will be directly consuming the user, as in case of big mom, and will in turn gain the devil fruit power."

"So does that mean that basically any giant can get any human's devil fruit by simply eating him whole?" asked Leon

"I don't think so. I think it also partially has to do with the very nature of the elixir elixir fruit, just like how Blackbeard's devil fruit has a hand in him gaining the quake quake fruit. So its a mix of both" explained Rimuru

"Right. That makes more sense. So in other words, we now have the ability to steal any enemy's  devil fruit we want, and give it to one of our allies? That sounds really nice!" said Dagruel

"Right? We can even make a whole army of natural devil fruit users! Unlike Kaido who has to use the inferior artificial ones" said Ramiris excited

"Yes we can indeed do that, but for now lets focus on our next task ahead" said Rimuru "Listen here Diablo, Ramiris and Dino, I am giving you your task for the next 7 days. Find as many merchants, carpenters, and other people who will provide necessary services in our Nation. You can use as much money as you want, and we have more than enough money for anything now considering Veldora managed to nab that noble's entire treasury"

"Kyahahaha Of course I know I m great"

"Yes Veldora. You were amazing this time. I will rewards you for your work later"

"Kufufufu leave it to me Rimuru sama" 

"Right then we will discuss the roadmap and structure of that island when Antak comes back. I really hope he is not in any kind of danger"

*

"Tch looks like those punks managed to get away from this island before I could reach here. No matter they couldn't have gotten too far in these few minutes. Lets search the nearest island from here" 

"Hai sir!"

With that, the battalion moved towards Jameri island. 

"That's as far as you can go"

"Huh? who is this punk trying to cross the path of an admiral? Do you have a death wish?"

"Me? death wish? Do YOU have a death wish you brat? I said this is as far as you go. Turn back or else none of you is going to be alive" said Antak in a threatening tone.

"Tch. Flying pest. I am in a bad mood today. Looks like I will have to burn you alive"

Antak started to undergo a minor transformation, and entered his battle mode. At the same time, one of the admiral's hands turned into magma.
