Chapter 200: INIIDF-Chapter 197 What Devil Fruit Did You Eat?
I am translating a new novel (Multiverse Conquest Starting from Dragon Ball). Read it and support me.
''Chapter Title: Liam, the Day You Wake Up - Useless Your Highness''
New World, Wano Country. The factory chimneys belched black smoke; in the quarry, the Hundred Beast Pirates cracked their whips; gravestones stood in a forest in the cemetery; cold winds wailed in the valleys; in the palace, Orochi was surrounded by companions, reveling in laughter; in the streets of the city, the son of the former General, the sworn brother of Whitebeard, the once-kneeling pirate king, the daimyō of Kōri, the "Invincible" samurai Kozuki Oden danced naked, unconcerned about the gaze of the surrounding townsfolk, lost in his own joyful and incomprehensible dance...

Liam stood to the side, suddenly enlightened.
No wonder this old man's appearance seemed familiar… After seeing the little wooden boat suspended beneath the balloon, he instantly recalled that this old man was none other than the Skypiea scientist whom Nami learned weather magic from!
Unexpectedly, this old scientist had secretly infiltrated the Amazon Lily Island, which was forbidden to men, just to conduct weather research. He truly was fearless…
"Let's go! Fly up quickly!" Hancock urged.
Her two younger sisters were also excited, fully curious about what it felt like to fly in the air.
Haredas untied the ropes, tossed them into the boat, and climbed in himself.
Hancock called for Robin, who used her Flower-Flower Fruit (Hana Hana no Mi) to sprout a series of arms on the boat to pull herself up.
"Giorno!" Hancock urged.
"I'm waiting for someone," Liam replied calmly, remaining still. Kuma had knocked him away but hadn't touched his Stand…
At that moment, B.I.B. was hurrying toward the main body…
"And your ship…" Liam reminded them.
The weather ship, filled with people, let out a "thud" as its bottom hit the ground.
Hancock, Sandersonia, Marigold, and Robin: "........."
Haredas tugged at his mustache and said, "I've never had so many people aboard at once…"
He glanced awkwardly at the 1.8-meter-tall Liam and the 6.8 to 9-meter-tall Kuma. Each of their weights looked like it could easily outweigh the old man and the young girls combined…
Kuma looked up at the sky and gently asked, "Where is this 'Weatheria' you mentioned?"
Haredas pointed to the sky above and smiled, "It's right above us, at a height of about ten thousand meters… Weatheria is a small Skypiea!"
"Right above us?!" Marigold looked up.
"Ten thousand meters?!" Sandersonia was shocked.
"Skypiea…" Hancock looked up, bewildered.
"So Skypiea really exists…" Robin murmured. She had seen rumors of Skypiea in some books but had previously thought it was merely an exaggerated myth.
Kuma said, "If it's Skypiea… I can go up on my own, so I don't need to board the ship."
Liam laughed, "I don't need to either!"
As he spoke, his body dissipated like smoke, transforming into a swirling stream of air that remained cohesive.
"Ah, is that a Logia-type Devil Fruit?" Haredas exclaimed, surprised. "How rare…"
Hancock urged, "Since they don't need it, let's set off quickly!"
Haredas replied with a smile, "Alright, then we'll set sail."
With that, he made a few adjustments to the device on the weather ship. Robin looked up and saw that the chaotic, incomprehensible energy in the small ball inside the transparent balloon suddenly became even more violent.
Black armor flew out from the forest, drifting beside the main body.
Liam smiled and said, "Let's go! Our destination is the sky."
…
In the woods of Amazon Lily Island, a small wooden boat suspended by a balloon gradually rose. Inside stood a white-bearded old man and four beautiful young girls.
"Off to the sky-island!!"
Hancock squeezed between her two younger sisters and Robin, raising her fists toward the vast sky and joyfully shouting.
Robin looked outside, watching as Liam transformed into a stream of air, leaving a winding trail like a snake as he followed closely around the ascending weather ship.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The air was filled with explosive sounds, as Kuma, using the power of the Paw-Paw Fruit, controlled the force, rhythmically striking the air, flanking Liam to the left and right as they closely followed the weather ship.
Liam couldn't help but wonder if Geppo from Rokushiki… was developed by a former user of the Paw-Paw Fruit ability.
Inside the weather ship, Hancock raised her hand and reached toward the balloon, astonished as she looked at her hand. "Is this… wind? Is there wind around the balloon?"
Haredas chuckled as he stroked his white beard. "This is the science of weather!"
"Then what's inside the small ball…" Robin observed the balloon. "Is it stored magnetic force? Did you create wind using magnetic force?"
"Eh? Little girl, do you understand the science of weather too?" Haredas was fully surprised.
"I've just seen some materials that say magnetic force can influence the weather and even shape the climate," Robin shook her head. She remembered Dr. Vegapunk's research; he once dreamed of creating a magnetic device to transform his hometown, Karakuri Island, from a winter island into a warm spring island…
"Exactly! After adjusting the magnetic force, wind can be formed… like this!" The old man said with a smile as he took out a device from his pocket. "Just like this wind knot…"
"A knot?" Hancock asked, puzzled. "Isn't this just a string of black balls?"
"Ah! Wrong one." Haredas awkwardly replied. "This is the Thunder Cloud that creates lightning…"
This guy actually has such a weapon… Hancock was speechless.
"Ah! Found it, it's this one. This is a knot that has been soaked in a special magnetic solution…" Haredas quickly pulled out the real wind knot, proudly opening one of the knots in front of Robin and Hancock.
"Opening one can summon a gentle breeze."
With a puff, a light breeze blew through, ruffling Hancock and Robin's hair.
"Opening two can summon a strong wind."
Whoosh! Hancock and Robin's hair danced wildly as the gust of wind shook the balloon and the entire weather ship.
"Opening three can summon a storm— ah!"
Just as Haredas was about to untie the third knot, Hancock punched him directly, angrily saying, "You idiot! That's dangerous!"
"I was just demonstrating!" The old man covered the bump on his forehead.
…
"Wow! Kujai Island looks so small now…"
After smoothing down her wind-blown hair, Sandersonia looked down from the edge of the weather ship, only to see that what they had thought was an enormous island now looked like a palm-sized spot.
"Eh? What's that?" Marigold's eyes widened.
Robin looked down and exclaimed, "There's someone… coming up!"
Soaring through the clouds, Liam and the air-walking Kuma looked below to see a whirlwind carrying two figures flying up.
Amidst the fierce winds, a man in a 2.5-meter-tall cloak was holding onto the two-meter-tall Snake Princess, rushing forward with a howl.
Liam smiled and said, "Long time no see, Dragon! I have a question, what Devil Fruit did you eat?"
