One Piece: Revenge of the Slaves

A tingling sensation, like growing flesh, spread across Alistair's face, making him want to scratch it.

"Don't move," Nico Robin called out, and Alistair restrained himself. What was growing on his face was Robin's meticulously controlled "muscle." Robin controlled its growth. Her ability was limited; she could only grow limbs within her line of sight—for example, growing an arm to break an enemy's joint. This tactic was effective; even with little strength, she could easily break joints. But this was for combat; she'd never made such subtle adjustments to a face.

Alistair wanted his face to be unrecognizable. This level of precision was new to her; it was a challenge.

Ace and Enel arrived, less concerned with their own training. Gossip was more important. Not just them; the four Skypiea representatives and four administrators, including Hancock and Dalton, were all there. Even though this was top-secret, "To be honest, even if Robin succeeds, don't get your hopes up too high."

Alistair's face itched, but he couldn't touch it; he spoke to distract himself: "The Navy and CP's intelligence agencies are excellent and ruthless; Robin should remember them well; it's only a matter of time before they discover my identity."

"But a later discovery is better than an earlier one; even delaying it by a day is worth it."

"Time is our greatest deficit against the World Government." The itching stopped; others fell silent; Robin was finished.

"How is it? Give me a mirror." Alistair touched his face; it felt like a mask. Robin, seemingly ticklish, gasped. She could easily grow arms to kill, but creating thin muscle layers was difficult. They had to be thin and adhere perfectly; thick layers would be obvious. This was a huge challenge; she had to keep Alistair in sight to prevent the muscle from disappearing.

This skill, like Ace's propulsion, was typical of Alistair's Devil Fruit development—a skill they couldn't have imagined. She couldn't create masks while moving, but she could create masks for herself; her bounty would be meaningless; as long as she didn't reveal her true appearance to ordinary people, she could live a normal life anonymously.

But after solving her crisis, could she really withdraw from this era? The answer was no.

Alistair looked at his reflection in the mirror and exclaimed in surprise. Due to his body transfer, he was weak; he was a cripple by this world's standards. But the transfer had a benefit—his body age was ten. He lived on top-quality food and goods, selling his intellect. His appearance had helped him survive with the Celestial Dragons. To be politically incorrect, his appearance improved significantly; he was handsome by One Piece standards.

His original features were gone; his straight nose was now a large, bulbous nose; his cheekbones were higher, making him look sharp; even his eyes were sharper due to the muscles around them. He looked like a different person, a typical strong One Piece character, not the weakling he was before. He looked sharp and fierce, somewhat dragon-like. This was Robin's "makeover," based on a typical pirate's appearance. Alistair stood up; everyone gasped; although they'd watched the process, the transformation was still shocking. A Devil Fruit might achieve this, but this was Robin's unique skill.

They no longer needed to fear the Navy.

"This disguise only works within my line of sight; it disappears if you leave my sight; you can't move; you can only record these…images."

She wasn't used to the Shadow and Sound Shells; she'd never seen anything that could record human voices and images. Alistair had only seen one Devil Fruit that could change appearance: the Imitate Imitate Fruit user, Bon Kurei. This ability was overpowered—in movies, anime, and novels, someone who can change faces at will is a major plot device. Alistair didn't have this, but he had Robin.

He sketched a face and showed it to Robin.

"Can you modify it like this?" Everyone gathered around, looking at the face Alistair had drawn. They gasped.
