Pirate Shadow Guardian

"Jasmine, are you sure you want to do this?"

Jasmine said nothing, but just looked at Yangye with a firm gaze.

"In fact, it's safest for you to stay in Windmill Town. No one can cause trouble here."

The determined gaze remains.

"This animal-type devil fruit can indeed enhance your strength, but it may not be suitable for you. I will find a more suitable fruit for you later."

"Without my brother, Jasmine would have no future."

A calm tone and a firm gaze.

"I've already said it, this is my plan, I'm sure..."

Well, Yang couldn’t continue.

Is this girl born in the year of the donkey? She is so stubborn!

Yang also felt that even if he left Jasmine in Windmill Town, she would run to the garbage mountain by herself.

"Forget it, I'm scared of you!"

Yang also took out the devil fruit from his pocket and handed it to Jasmine, who also smiled sweetly.

Jasmine took the Devil Fruit and bit it without hesitation. The moment she bit it, her brows slightly frowned, but she still swallowed it without changing her expression. At the same time, the Devil Fruit turned into a black stream of light and sank into Jasmine's body.

"how do you feel?"

Yang Ye's taste is bad. Eating a devil fruit doesn't make you feel anything except nausea. Even if it's an animal-type devil fruit, it can't immediately enhance your physical fitness.

The three states of animal ability users:

Ordinary human form,

Animal form,

Half-orc form.

There is no difference between ordinary human form and not using the devil fruit.

The animal form is the state of using the power of the fruit. The physical fitness will be greatly enhanced, and different fruits have different directions of enhancement.

The half-orc form is the awakened state, enhanced in all aspects.

(The difference between animal form and awakened state depends on which aspect is more important. Animal form is a beast with human characteristics, while awakened state is a human with animal characteristics. It may seem a bit confusing, but it is actually quite easy to distinguish.)

When he went to see Garp, Yang took out the devil fruit and wanted Garp to help him identify it.

Unfortunately, even Garp could not recognize this devil fruit. He could only judge based on the type of pattern that it was an animal-type fruit.

Then, this devil fruit was targeted by Jasmine.

She had been training very hard for the past half month, but her age limited her growth rate. The animal-type devil fruit was famous for its ability to enhance physical fitness, so she wanted it.

Most importantly, she knew Yang was going to take the risk too.

If she wanted to help Yangye, with her current strength, maybe she could assassinate a few small pirates. How could she be of any help?

So, when Yang returned to the dormitory of Makino Hotel, she proposed to use this devil fruit, which led to the scene just now.

Yang Ye was not reluctant to give up this animal-type devil fruit. As we all know, animal-type devil fruits are notoriously high in lower limit and low in upper limit.

Except for the ones with an extra suffix "mythical beast species" and "ancient species", the rest basically won't have any very high achievements, and the upper limit is stuck.

Why does this happen?

Yang Ye's guess is:

In the animal world, origin and bloodline are more important.

But these are all Jasmine's own choices. He always only makes suggestions and does not force his partners to make decisions according to his will.

Even though Jasmine had always been by his side as an accessory, he had never viewed her in this way. In his eyes, Jasmine was a flesh-and-blood, independent-minded, trustworthy partner!

Since the fruit has been given to Jasmine, it would be nice to see how miserable Jasmine looks after eating the devil fruit. Maybe it will become a source of sarcasm for teasing Jasmine in the future?

However, Yang was disappointed.

Jasmine didn't say a word at all. She just nodded, shook her head, and then closed her eyes, not opening them for a long time.

"Brother, I'm fine."

Apparently, Jasmine has gotten over that terrible feeling...

This is a cruel person!

There was actually someone who ate a devil fruit, but he just frowned slightly, closed his eyes, and after a few breaths, he was fine!

What can I say?

Cow batch!

"Show me your new abilities!"

Yang was somewhat excited, but also somewhat nervous. No matter what Jasmine became, he could accept it. He was just afraid that Jasmine herself would not be able to accept it and would be devastated by it.

"Okay, brother."

Jasmine smiled sweetly, and then began to use the devil fruit. Using the power of the devil fruit is not troublesome, it is an instinct of the ability user.

Of course, development is another matter.

You can use your hands and feet flexibly, but if you want to use your hands and feet to perform a set of boxing techniques, it will require a long period of training and development.

Jasmine's body began to change rapidly. Her arms opened unconsciously, her body lengthened, wings grew, and her head turned into the shape of a bird.

Is this the bird fruit?

But... this look... why do they look so similar...

crow?!!

Yes, no wonder the light I saw before was black...

Aren’t crows black?

To be honest, this crow doesn’t look ugly. It has good body proportions and looks elegant and mysterious.

Well, let’s comfort Jasmine like this for a while!

The crow has a wingspan of two meters, with a pair of wings taking up three quarters of its body. It is one and a half meters long, so it looks like it should be flying fast. I don’t know if it will grow bigger in the future. If it grows a little bigger, maybe I can ride it myself…

Just as Yang was looking at Jasmine's new form, Jasmine suddenly disappeared!

!!!

Is it so fast?

Where can a lockable room go?

Suddenly, Yangye's body shook and he looked at his own shadow in disbelief!

Jasmine...ran into the shadows here?!

"Jasmine?"

"Brother is amazing, you figured this out!"

Jasmine slowly emerged from Yangye's shadow, as if she was emerging from the water.

Yang was not unfamiliar with this situation, as he often appeared from other people's shadows. But this time...it was someone else who came out of his own shadow!

This feeling is weird and wonderful.

"How did you get into my shadow?"

Yang Ye asked hurriedly.

"Just now my brother's shadow overlapped with mine, and then I felt that I could enter, so I tried it, and then I succeeded."

"Then can you sense other shadows, can you enter other shadows, and can you travel between shadows?"

Yang also threw out a series of questions.

After discovering that Jasmine's abilities overlapped with his own, Yang couldn't wait to know if Jasmine had any other abilities.

Yang Ye couldn't really tell what his psychology was like. It was very complicated and contradictory.

He hoped that Jasmine could have more abilities, but if she had the same abilities as himself, he would feel unhappy. It was a feeling that a power that only he could use suddenly had another user...

Fortunately, Jasmine's devil fruit is still animal-type, not shadow fruit.

After Jasmine's experiment, she concluded that after she transformed into the "Shadow Crow" form, she could live in the shadows. However, she could not sense the shadows outside her habitat, and of course she could not shuttle between shadows.

Of course, this ability is also very useful.

Although it has a lot of limitations, it can still be used to great effect if used properly. It is perfect for Jasmine, who is trying to follow the ninja sword route.

What's more, Jasmine's animal-type devil fruit is the Bird-Bird Fruit, which can fly!

Animal type·Bird-Bird Fruit·Shadow Crow Form.

Yang Ye just took the name.

It can fly and hide, so its survivability is quite strong.

And…this was only when Jasmine was alone.

What if... I add my own shadow fruit?

Yang also has a bold idea!
