When they reached their room Michael sat on his bed and kept thinking about his devil fruit powers while Hancock and her sisters went out of the room. This is a very good devil fruit and if he planned well, he might be able to escape from here early.
What he ate was not some electric man fruit otherwise he would not be so happy. What he ate was the logia 'Cloud Cloud devil fruit'. It enables him to create, manipulate and become any cloud. There are so many things he can do with this power. He can create thunder clouds and hail clouds, he can fly by becoming a cloud or he can increase the density of the cloud and take others to fly.
He can even try to absorb and store sunlight with clouds, if he can then it will perfectly complement his racial ability. He can get stronger even in this place. This is why he was so happy back then, this fruit is just made for him. It makes him wonder if it is true that not only the owner chooses their devil fruit but also a strong devil fruit chooses its own owner.
When he attacked the slave earlier he turned the palm of his hand into a charge cloud the moment he made contact with the slave and released as much thunder as he could. It might be due to his weak body or the clouds being too small, he was exhausted without doing any damage which deceived everyone.
Hancock quietly returned while Michael was absorbed in his own world. Hancock looked at Michael who was serious and imagined what would have happened to their sisters if they did not meet Michael in this place and she trembled a little at the thought of it. She has developed a favorable impression of him in the past week and maybe some dependency also. She slowly walked over
" Michael, what are you thinking about?"
Hancock went out to wash the dirt on her face. Now even the dirty clothes cannot cover her beauty anymore. The charm given by her devil fruit power is exploding. Her whole body is excluding an aura of charm and her every movement and expression is making others sink more deeply. And her small body and weak expression may add more lethality to some individuals.
Michael looked over and his whole body froze, he stared blankly at Hancock which made her embarrassed. It's not that he has not seen any beautiful girls. One moment he was blank and in the next moment a beautiful face suddenly appeared so close to him and it was not any normal beauty. The next moment he reacted, he quickly turned his face away and his face also turned a little red.
"Ha...Han...cock!!! It's nothing!! I was just thinking about the new power I got"
Hancock snickered at his cute action. Sometimes she forgets that Michael is also a 14 years old teen not much older than her. So she decided to tease him more, she got even more closer
"Michael, do you see any difference in me"
Michael has also come back to his senses. He felt embarrassed at his weak appearance. But it is not his fault either, he was not this close to a girl even in his previous life. It is not a matter of age, he has no experience. But he has to do something.
" You look very beautiful today. But be careful if I fall for you and turn into stone you will lose your helpful roommate"
He did not wait for a reply, seeing Hancock so close he quickly got up and hugged her and spun a few rounds in the air pretending to be very excited about something.
"Ma.. Michael!!! Slow down!!! Slow down!!! " This time it's her turn to be embarrassed.
" Hancock we might be able to escape from here. If my plan is worked out you will be able to go home. We won't have to suffer here anymore, we will be free Hancock!! Free!!"
Michael said excitedly but not loudly. This time he is not pretending but really excited at the possibility of escaping from this place.
"What are you talking about, Michael. How can we escape from here. Is it for real!! Will we really be able to go home!! "
Hancock was also excited. She quickly asked Michael about his plan.
"Cough.. Cough... The devil fruit I ate allows me to create clouds and I can create a type of cloud which can take us to fly. We just have to wait for suitable weather and we can escape directly from the sky and I just happen to know when there will be such weather"
Michael quickly gives a brief description of his escape plan. There are many loopholes in his current plan but he believes he will be able to fix them. He is not the weak person with no strength from yesterday. As for whether he can create a cloud that can take people to fly, he is not worried because there is already an island floating in the sky.
"Is it true, Michael. Can we really escape from here? You aren't lying to me, are you? I miss home, I want to go back home."
Hancock couldn't believe it. She thought that she would be trapped here forever but now she has hope to escape. She suddenly missed her home and felt like crying.
"Believe me Hancock, we will surely leave this place." Michael quickly said with confidence as he saw that she is about to cry. He was about to explain his plan to boost her confidence when the door suddenly opened.
"Michael.. Hancock.. What are you doing? Are you getting married?"
A voice suddenly comes from behind which petrified him. They are in an embarrassing position, he is hugging Hancock in the air and their faces are very close to each other. Before they were so excited that they did not think much but now someone suddenly disturbs the situation and he is very embarrassed.
He quickly put Hancock down and moved a few steps away. He saw that Hancock's face was also all red.
"This..this..is not what you think it is!! And what do you mean married, we have not even dated" He tried to explain to SanderSonia and MariGold but it seems to make it worse.
"What!! Hugging doesn't mean you are married! Dont lie to us, Michael. Our sisters from Amazon Lily said that if a man hugged you then he has agreed to marry you." They have a confident expression as if they know he is a liar.
Amazon lily is an island with only women, when someone wants to have children she will find a man quickly get married. If the child born is a girl she will bring her back to amazone lily and raise her. Most girls there don't have much idea about the opposite sex.
Michael also began to doubt himself a little. He is not much familiar with this word, who knows if hugging a girl here means getting married.
'Am I already a married man'
While Michael was doubting life in the corner Hancock quickly explains to her sisters. They also seem to think that it was a coincidence but still gave Michael a suspicious look. Michael and Hancock also looked at each other and breathe a sigh of relief which they themselves aren't sure of why.
"Then Michael when are we going to escape from here" SanderSonia and MariGold also got excited when they heard that they can escape from here.
" We can't escape now, we have to wait for a few months. During winter Mary Geoise will be enveloped by heavy fog for some time. The slaves will also have free time for a few days. In the fog I will try to steal the key for the explosive collar. If this step is successful then we can directly fly away with the fog as cover. No one will be able to see us escape and when they find out we will already be far away from this place."
Michael explained his plan to the three. He has great confidence in stealing the key. Fog is also a kind of cloud and he himself is a cloud. Even if someone has observation haki, it will be hard to find him. The three girls also think that his plan will succeed and were happy for a long time.
After they chat and laugh together for some time Michael separated. He came in front of the window where there is sunlight to see if his idea can succeed. It is a very important part of his plan which can change the difficulty of their escape.
He stretched out his hands in the sunlight and a lump of black fluffy cloud floated out of his hand and it remained floated in the sunlight. After some time he absorbed the cloud into his body. He felt his body becoming a little stronger and his stamina coming back.
Michael got excited at the change even though it is very small compared to direct exposure to sunlight. He just has to figure out how to store this sunlight at least for a night. Then he can exercise himself at night and when he is exhausted he can quickly recover by absorbing sunlight stored in the clouds.
Previously he did not do it because he did not have any time during the day and also because direct exposure to sunlight increases his power many times thereby consuming too much stamina. He will gasp after a few punches. Now he can stably increase his strength by training at night.
