"That's so cool!!" Lee said as he watched Luffy send a punch into the empty air and watched as his arm stretched like a rubber band before bouncing back, "I want one!!"
Instead of stretching back like when he had grown up, the fist hits him on the face when it stretched back.
At this point in his life, Luffy is still inexperienced in using the abilities of the rubber fruit.
"Ouch!"
Jon smiles on the side as he watches Luffy demonstrating his devil fruit's ability. He kind of like the foolishness of this kid.
I was sitting on the grass in disappointment, feeling like he still hadn't mastered landing a punch with the powers, "I'm still not very good. I just had this problem."
Meanwhile, Sanji eyes Luffy with awe and suspicion, "That is from eating a devil fruit?"
Luffy was surprised that Sanji knew what it was, "Yeah, but it tastes awful. Like the worst thing that I ever ate in my life."
"I heard from Zeff that devil fruit users cannot swim," Sanji said with pity, "I'm not sure you will want one, Lee."
"That's not a problem at all," Lee said as he tried to stretch Luffy's cheeks, "ninja can walk on water."
"Walk on water! I want to do that too!" Luffy said with excitement, imagining himself sprinting on the water would be pretty cool.
"Here I'll show you," Lee took Luffy with him to the lake close by and demonstrated by slowly walking on top of the water with ease.
"Awesome!! Lee, you have to teach me how to do that!" Luffy pleaded as his eyes sparkled with interest and fascination, while Sanji, who was on the side, was a little too shy to be begging someone else to be teaching him something.
But he still watches from the side as Lee teaches Luffy how to master his chakra, maybe because Luffy is the main character in the world.
Still, he slowly grasped the mastery of chakra and is now courageously trying to take his first step on the lake.
"Luffy is better than Naruto at mastering chakra?" Jon thought to himself, like discovering interesting news upon seeing how easily Luffy could master chakra control within three hours.
But the instant Luffy was able to stand on his own two feet above the water, he quickly lost control and fell into the water, "Help!"
He flounders in the water before being saved by Lee, who is by his side; seeing that his clothes have become soaked, a maid comes over and gives Luffy a new set of clothing.
Jon finds him quite funny as Luffy is not slightly embarrassed about changing his clothes in front of everyone around him.
If it were Sanji, that would not be a possible scenario, especially with the cute maids that he is trying to flirt with right now.
He watches in the distance as Luffy tries, again and again, to stand on the water. This seems like a beautiful scene from paradise with the green grass in the high mountains and the clear lake.
"Yay! I finally got it!" Luffy had his arms in the air as he danced, "Lee, I finally mastered walking on water!!"
Looking up at the sky, he noticed that the sun had already begun to set in the sky, but Lee smiled happily with the bright beam, "Luffy, I believe in your hard work!"
"I won't have to be afraid of falling into the water again," Luffy said with excitement, as he then noticed that Jon had prepared a mountain of meat on the ground again, "Yay! Meat!!"
Jon watches Luffy rush over with excitement and gorging on all the meat. Then he asks Luffy, "Luffy, do you want to learn a special skill that can help you digest all the food you eat instantly?"
Hearing that there is a skill that can allow him to digest all the food instantly made Luffy interested, "Really? That would be awesome! I can eat all the food in an instant."
Jon was initially thinking of teaching Seimei Kikan; it was amongst the skills that were gifted to him upon accepting Luffy into this world; besides that, he also learned the six techniques of Rokushiki.
Besides that, he also learned to use haki, which was the gift from accepting Sanji into the world, allowing him to use the three forms of haki to perfection.
[Disciple System Initiated]
[New Skill: Void Regeneration]
Upon mastering the skill, Jon learned that this skill allows the user to take the energy of the food that is digested and transform them into a form of personal power.
Upon eating more powerful beasts, the user would continuously grow more vital to a limitless degree, reminding him how similar this is to gourmet cells.
The difference is that void regeneration has no limitations upon calorie intake and increases the user's mastery and control over his physical body, digestion, and mental strength.
Luffy watches as Jon points a sparkling finger to his head. Upon the slight touch, he finds his mind containing a new set of information about something called Void Regeneration, but the only thing he is concerned about is hunger.
"Why am I so hungry again," Luffy said as he rushed headfirst into the mountain of food; seeing Luffy eating the mountain of meat like he hadn't eaten for days made Lee and Jon smile awkwardly.
Jon and Lee exchange a knowing glance as they see Luffy's small body not expanding upon consuming the mountain of food at an unbelievable pace. And soon, even the last piece of meat and the bones.
Luffy then looked at Jon with a smile, and Jon instantly knew what Luffy was up to, "I won't be feeding you more today. If you want to become the strongest and discover the new cuisines, then fight for it."
Seeing this scene made Lee smile since this was also what he had experienced some time ago. He remembered how his master had seemingly initiated him into a brand new world.
