One Piece I Transmigrated into Marco Chapter 96 96: 96: Awakening the Phoenix

After entering his cabin, Marco imdiately accessed his system panel to review his status:

Curious, Marco clicked on the Special Attributes section.

Devil Fruit Upgrade: Zoan Type – Phoenix Form (Unawakened) → Zoan Type – Phoenix Form (Awakened), consus 15,000 Attribute Points. Options: Yes / No

Without hesitation, Marco chose Yes, spending 15,000 Attribute Points to awaken his Devil Fruit.

Instantly, his panel updated to display his new stats:

Na: Marco

Age: 43 years old

Attribute Points: 5,000

Devil Fruit: Zoan Type – Phoenix Form (Awakened)

Haki: Armant Haki (Top-tier), Observation Haki (Top-tier), Conqueror's Haki (Interdiate)

Physical Techniques: Soru (Interdiate), Rankyaku (Interdiate), Moonwalk (Interdiate), Tekkai (Advanced), Finger Pistol (Advanced), Kami-e (Interdiate)

Strength: 12,054

Speed: 6,500

Defense: 13,800

Recovery: 60,000

Stamina: 15,100

ntal Strength: 10,300

System Combat Power Assessnt: Strong Admiral–Emperor Level

Marco studied the numbers, astonished.

Strength had risen by 2,000 points, Speed by 2,000, Defense by 5,000, Recovery by 15,000, Stamina by 5,000, and ntal Strength by 1,000—an overall gain of 30,000 points from only 15,000 spent.

Half of the boost went into Recovery, granting him nigh-immortality as long as his stamina held.

Five of his six core attributes had surpassed 10,000, with only Speed remaining below.

Marco considered investing points to push it above 10,000 for symtry but decided it wasn't urgent.

With his current strength, he already stood at the visible pinnacle of the world.

Even the Three Admirals only reached Strong Admiral–Emperor Level.

Among the Four Emperors, Big Mom was only Admiral–Emperor Level, and Kaido and Red Hair might be stronger, but likely still capped at Strong Admiral–Emperor Level.

King Level? That was reserved for legends like pri Whitebeard.

Returning to Special Attributes, Marco discovered that his Devil Fruit could evolve even further, revealing four potential upgrade paths:

1. Redemption: 50,000 Attribute Points

2. Undying: 50,000 Attribute Points

3. Impart: 50,000 Attribute Points

4. Destruction: 50,000 Attribute Points

Marco contemplated their anings:

Redemption should enhance the Phoenix Fla's healing for others, Undying strengthens my own recovery, Destruction clearly boosts offensive power, and Impart… perhaps I can share my Phoenix abilities with others.

He recalled the Immortality displayed by the Gorosei and God's Knights in the Egghead and Elbaf arcs, considering that Impart might indeed involve transferring powers.

And Undying—was it rely extre recovery, or true immortality, akin to the God's Knights?

Unsure, Marco pondered whether these were upgrade paths or permanent choices, as picking one might prevent selecting the others.

He realized he needed advice.

"System," Marco called aloud. "Co out, System. Answer , Attribute Point System?"

For a mont, silence filled his mind.

Then, tentatively, he added, "Little Ai…"

"I'm here!" The system AI's voice rang out instantly, clear and responsive.

Marco smiled, ready to learn which path to take next, his mind buzzing with possibilities.
