Alvida panted heavily, her eyes fixed on the pink color of the Devil Fruit, the greed in her eyes almost palpable. She stared at the slender man, and a sneer spread across her lips.
"Well, well, well! Since you've brought this valuable item to me, I won't make things difficult for you! Hand it over." Mason was slightly perplexed by Alvida's sudden straightforward attitude.
How did she suddenly change her tune? Then, seeing her enthusiastic expression, Mason understood.
After all, she was a pirate; what she wanted, she would take. As he thought this, the Slippery-Slippery Fruit in Mason's hand suddenly disappeared.
"It seems you haven't realized the situation you're in." Alvida's heart panicked as the Devil Fruit suddenly vanished.
She reached out her hand, intending to catch the man in front of her. However, the next moment, a one-meter-by-one-meter stone wall appeared in front of her.
"?!" And while she was still stunned, stone walls also appeared on her sides.
By the time she reacted, everything around her was stone walls. And Mason appeared on top of the stone wall.
"You! You're also a Devil Fruit user!" "If not, why would I give you the fruit if I weren't a user?" Mason shrugged, and at the same time, the Slippery-Slippery Fruit reappeared in his hand.
Realizing this, Alvida understood her position. She prepared to act cute or do something to survive.
But in her current chubby form, her swaying posture made Mason roll his eyes. "Stop, my mood is good right now, that's why I'm giving you a chance." "I agree!" Mason smiled and nodded, then tossed the Slippery-Slippery Fruit to Alvida.
"Remember to eat it all." After speaking, Mason jumped down from the stone wall.
He walked towards the wild boar. If Luffy hadn't sent Alvida flying, she might already be dead.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that they were her saviors. Although he wasn't an anime otaku, he had seen mainstream manga like One Piece, and he was familiar with the characters who appeared in it.
While there was the issue of his values following his aesthetics, which man didn't like beautiful women? If he didn't, he was definitely gay.
As soon as he walked up to the wild boar, it shrunk and was sucked into Mason's backpack. This made him stunned.
Then he opened his backpack to see the three-meter-tall wild boar now lying in one slot of the backpack. Good heavens, this was very Minecraft-like.
Thinking, he crafted a furnace, then placed logs in the fuel area. He directly threw the entire wild boar into it.
Then, the cooking began. "It really works!" Watching the burning value decrease and the progress of the roasted boar slowly increase.
Clearly, the logs were insufficient. However, there was a lot of wood in the forest.
He took out his stone axe, walked to a giant tree, and started cutting. As soon as he finished cutting a circle, the giant tree above completely collapsed, turning into small blocks that fell to the ground.
Mason was slightly shocked by this, as he didn't have this ability when cutting trees before. His vision blurred again, and then he paid attention to the interface.
So that's how it was. It appeared when he wanted to 'see' the game interface?
With a thought, everything in the game appeared. And his level was clearly one.
"Level up? It must be the experience orb dropped by the dead wild boar? So, leveling up will unlock modes?" As Mason pondered, a panel appeared in front of him, and on the panel, only "Chain Mining" was lit up.
Below it, there were several locked slots. They were each for levels 10, 20, 30.
And so on. Until level 100, and then there were no more.
He didn't know if that was the cap or if there were more that he couldn't see. He stopped thinking and returned to the furnace.
He put in all the logs. Then he went to check on Alvida.
Honestly, he was quite curious about how eating the Slippery-Slippery Fruit would change someone into a beautiful person. But when he looked, Alvida was still the same Alvida.
A chubby aunt. "No, you didn't eat it?" "I ate it, but why am I still like this?" Alvida was somewhat desperate.
Mason was slightly perplexed. But then, as if he thought of something.
"Activate your ability, expel the fat, expel the spots." As his words fell, Alvida began to change drastically, like clay, her skin started to peel off, accompanied by lumps of fat falling to the ground.
Soon, the tall and beautiful Alvida from the anime appeared. Destroying the circular stone wall, Mason poked at the round balls on the ground.
Fat and skin. "So that's the principle, right? Using skin to wrap and then sliding from the excess fat and skin problems. Yes, if it's like this, it makes sense. If not, if it's just shedding fat, the skin would be wrinkled." Alvida walked out, gazing at her slender arms, hairless and smooth, as silky as silk.
She touched her face, an oval shape with proportional features, no longer pinched like before. "I... I?! Has my voice also changed?" "Normal. When a fat person loses weight, their voice changes because more air flows through their throat, and their voice becomes clearer." Mason explained.
Alvida was overjoyed. Although she hadn't seen her appearance yet, it was undoubtedly no longer the same as before.
She stared at Mason, about to express her gratitude, but then noticed his gaze wandering. "What's wrong?" Mason scratched his head, his voice slightly shaky: "Confidence is a good thing." Alvida looked down, froze for a moment, and then burst into laughter, without any feminine modesty.
In the past, she couldn't see her feet when she looked down, and while she still couldn't see them fully now, at least she could see her toes. Mason was slightly perplexed by Alvida's sudden laughter.
Didn't all women have a bit of a pirate queen in them? He scratched his head.
Mason, barely twenty years old, felt a bit overwhelmed. He discreetly averted his gaze.
After a while, Alvida, now dressed neatly, came to the furnace. "Thank you." The simple thanks, yet they were the best words Alvida could utter at the time.
"You're just in time, the roasted boar is ready." "Roasted boar?" Mason reached into a square, still burning furnace opening, and pulled out a massive object.
It was a boar over three meters tall. Alvida's eyes widened.
It was hard to imagine how such a large object could be pulled out of a furnace opening only thirty centimeters wide. But she soon gave up trying to understand; after all, the Devil Fruit was too mysterious, and it wasn't strange for them to achieve this.
"Want some? It will help with your injuries." Alvida rubbed her stomach, which still felt a faint pain.
She didn't stand on ceremony, directly tore off a piece of the boar's leg, and started devouring it. The three-meter-tall boar was consumed by the two of them in less than ten minutes.
Alvida ate a lot, or she wouldn't have become so fat in the first place, while Mason could eat as much as he wanted. Although his inventory was full, he could still increase his satiety, which was a characteristic of the MC.
However, his hunger bar was now full. "I didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good."
