Seeing everyone's bewildered expressions, Hera took out 'Saikū' and slashed a rift leading to the training ground: "Words alone won't make it clear; let's go to the training ground."
Everyone followed Hera through the spatial rift and arrived directly at the Marine training ground.
Next, Hera looked at Kuina. Kuina blinked blankly, and Hera said: "Summon your power, you know, that throne."
Kuina summoned it subconsciously. A golden throne erged from the ground, and the 'Astral Dress: Adonai lek', styled like a purple princess gown, replaced the military uniform on Kuina's body.
As Kuina drew the wado ichimonji, white fragnts surged from behind the throne and rged onto the wado ichimonji in Kuina's hand, forming the double-edged greatsword 'Sandalphon'.
Holding the brand-new greatsword in her hand, Kuina felt a sense of familiarity. Although the style had changed, it was still very smooth to swing, as if it were a part of her body.
Purple armor and clothes resembling a princess gown enveloped Kuina's entire body. The seams, lining, and hem of the gown were composed of non-material light mbranes blooming with an incredible glow, and she wore a purple crystal headpiece on her head.
Ain and the others curiously sized up Kuina's new appearance.
Kuina, however, covered her skirt, her face turning red. She said sowhat shyly: "Why is this armor like a skirt? It feels a bit chilly. Won't it affect combat?"
Hera laughed: "This is the form most suitable for combat, but after you beco proficient, you can adjust the form yourself."
Kuina felt that her physical attributes had strengthened significantly. If she encountered Hawkeye again, although she might not necessarily win, she at least wouldn't be in such a pathetic state.
Hera continued: "This is an ability granted by the spirit crystal. You can understand it as a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit; it strengthens physical attributes while providing unique armants."
Kuina felt the connection between herself and the throne. With a single thought, the throne flew up under Kuina's control. She instinctively felt that the sword in her hand could evolve again.
Hera confird her thought: "This sword is called 'Sandalphon'. It has more forms that you need to develop yourself, but you can also give it a na you like."
Kuina nodded, her hand stroking the blade of 'Sandalphon', and said: "Then I'll still call you wado ichimonji."
The blade stroked by Kuina trembled slightly, as if acknowledging this new na.
Subsequently, Kuina swung the new wado ichimonji, feeling the power within it and gradually adapting to the new strength.
While Kuina was adapting to her brand-new power, Reiju caught the main point of what Hera had said and asked: "Oh, so how did that spiritual power enter Kuina's body?"
Hearing this, Hera imdiately beca shy, stamring and not knowing how to say it.
Perona also noticed and shook Hera: "Hurry up and tell us, how do you inject spiritual power?"
Seeing her companions crowding around, all full of curiosity about this matter, Hera could only say in a small voice: "It's through contact with ."
The noisy sounds drowned out Hera's voice, and Nami asked: "What?"
Hera's face flushed red, and as if giving up on everything, she said: "My body contains spiritual power!"
The four people surrounding Hera were also shocked, looking Hera up and down. Hera, feeling the four sowhat shocked gazes, lowered her head awkwardly.
Reiju rembered that night on Punk Hazard island, let out a light laugh, and asked Hera with ill intent: "Then I wonder if our Captain is the one who does the exchanging, or the one who is exchanged?"
Hearing this, Hera's face burned even more. Since things had co to this, the fact that she was the one on the bottom could absolutely not be known by them. She said stubbornly: "I am the Captain; of course I am the active one."
Ain also thought of that night and continued: "Oh, is that so? Then why was it Kuina who ca out to get the food back then?"
Nami also rembered that night and said: "I rember, Kuina even said you were so tired you fell asleep."
Hera's face turned completely red. She squatted on the ground and covered her face, her thin voice sounding as if it were squeezed out from between her teeth: "You guys, you all know?"
Only then did Perona understand. She glared at Hera: "So that's how it is? I was even worried sothing happened to you and wanted to use my soul to take a look."
But thinking of the sensation of Hera's arm, her face suddenly turned red, who knows what she was thinking.
Ain leaned close to Hera's face and said pointedly: "The Captain can't be biased. I also want to beco stronger; what should I do?"
Hera felt like she was being stared at by predators, but on her side, it was four 'great lesbians'. She looked toward Kuina with a pleading gaze for help.
But Kuina was busy familiarizing herself with her power and didn't notice the situation over here.
The City of Devouring Ti beneath her feet surged; Hera already wanted to run away, but her wrist was caught by Ain, who noticed the abnormality: "The Captain wouldn't be thinking of escaping, right? That won't do."
With her thoughts exposed, Hera imdiately beca stubborn: "How could I possibly run? This has to be transmitted through that kind of thing; this sort of thing definitely has to be done with soone I like."
Reiju laughed, her finger gently tilting Hera's face up: "Oh, then as long as we are willing, it's fine?"
Hera shook off Reiju's finger and said: "Of course. Let you all see the Captain's prowess."
Ain said: "I have no problem with it, of course. From the mont you got the Float-Float Fruit back for , my heart has belonged to you."
Hera breathed a sigh of relief. She had already anticipated Ain's feelings; at most, there should only be one more, Reiju.
Reiju said with a smile: "It was you who brought out of that emotionless place, the Germa Kingdom, and even saved my mother and brothers. Have you forgotten? I agreed to you long ago."
Reiju thought of how Hera had dominantly said 'I want you' when landing in the Germa Kingdom, and she showed a smile.
Nami also rushed to say: "It was you who saved from Arlong's kingdom and gave the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, giving the conditions to realize my dream."
Then Nami said: "Besides, I have already agreed to be bound together with the argo; who would agree to stay on the ship of soone they don't like for a lifeti?"
Hera was caught a bit off guard by Nami's sudden frankness and looked at Perona.
Perona stared at Hera, who was looking at her, a blush appearing on her face. She still said fiercely: "What are you looking at for? You snatched away from Moriah, so you're not allowed to leave behind."
Nami looked at Hera's sowhat incredulous expression and was slightly angry: "Captain, you just don't know how high your charm is. Even without relying on your ability, you have a fatal attraction."
