Inside the secret hideout, Gjhin was standing while training his Devil Fruit ability. After knowing what he could do, he immediately started training so that he could use it as soon as possible. On his hands, a single black line that was a few centimeters in thickness could be seen running across his entire arm below the elbow.

Spending quite some time repeating the same process over and over, Gjhin could now increase the strength in his arms for longer than five minutes. Once it reached five and a half minutes, it would automatically disappear on its own, even if he didn't want it to.

With his strength enhanced, Gjhin punched the air in front of him. He could hear the sound of wind being blown forward from the force of his punch. Without being too happy about it, he slowly transferred the enhanced strength around his body.

Looking at himself, he could clearly see the black lines move from his arms, around his body to whoever he willed it to transfer. From his chest, down to his legs, then to his neck. Since he couldn't see his face, he assumed it worked there too.

Next, he tried something else. Strength wasn't the only thing he could increase. Focusing back on his arms, this time, the lines that ran through his arms weren't black. They were a golden-yellow color instead. It seemed like whatever stat he enhanced, would have a different color.

The golden-yellow lines represented speed or agility. With this, he tried punching as fast as he could with both arms.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The speed at which he punched was impressive, being almost ten punches per second! His hands were moving fast, as though he had a million arms. Though it wasn't that powerful, he could hear the soft sound of wind moving as he punched, which sounded like a whistle. Though this wasn't anything special since anyone who punched hard or fast enough could make that sound, even a little child like himself.

However, if one punch wasn't enough to defeat the opponent, then what about ten? If ten wasn't enough, then a hundred. If a hundred wasn't enough, then a thousand. He could punch them until he defeated his opponent, as long as he had the chance to.

As for the other aspects of his Devil Fruit ability, he couldn't test them out too well. He enhanced the defenses of his legs and hit himself with the iron pipe. It definitely worked, but it still hurt quite a lot. The green lines on his legs soon disappeared as he changed aspects.

As for intelligence, he focused it on his mind. Looking around, he closed his eyes then reopened them. Well... nothing happened as expected. So, he tried to enhance his eyesight. He felt a soft tingling feeling around his eyes, as he could suddenly see further into the distance.

He could even control how far he wanted to see. The maximum distance he could see further ahead than usual was ten meters. His vision returned to normal, as he enhanced his ears and nose. After testing his Devil Fruit, Gjhin stopped, as Ace, Sabo, and Luffy returned.

"Welcome back." he told them. The three brothers all came into the hideout with an entire tiger. It was dead, but no visible wounds besides the large bump on its head could be seen. The tiger was over three meters long and much taller than them all. It required all three of them to carry back to the secret hideout.

Throwing the large tiger onto the ground, the entire hideout shook from its weight. The sound was also quite loud when it landed, as the three brothers put their iron pipes down. "How did it go?" Ace asked.

"I figured out my Devil Fruit ability. Basically, it lets me enhance my entire body, whether strength, speed, or defense. I can also enhance my eyesight, hearing, and sense of smell etc." Gjhin replied.

"That's a powerful one, unlike Luffy's. It's hard to imagine how Luffy can become strong in the future as a rubber man, though it really depends on how the person uses it. Even if someone obtains a strong ability, if they can't use it then it's just a waste." Sabo said.

Gjhin and Ace agreed to what he said. As for Luffy, he was picking his nose and waiting to eat with his stomach rumbling like thunder. "Well, let's eat first. We can discuss after the meal."

Hearing that they were going to eat, Luffy was happy. Ace and Sabo lifted the tiger with Gjhin's help and placed it down. The tiger's blood seemed to have been rung out already when they brought it back, so there was no need to do that step.

First, Ace and Sabo held a knife to skin the tiger. Even though they were children, they seemed to be used to it. There was another knife, so Gjhin grabbed it and started copying what they were doing. At first, it was a little bit wonky, but after a while it was great. He felt as though he had done this before, feeling very familiar.

However, he couldn't remember anything about it. Ace and Sabo saw this but didn't say anything, since something similar had happened before already, so they had already adapted. Soon enough, the entire tiger was skinned very quickly as the three children worked together.

Leaving the skin for another purpose, they chopped the tiger up into multiple parts. Ace and Sabo brought the entire tiger over to the center to start cooking it over a flame. "Eh? Aren't you going to save some for tonight?" Gjhin asked.

"We can finish the entire thing, no worries, we might have to hunt more for tonight with you here instead." Ace replied, as if eating an entire tiger was normal. "They sure eat a lot..." Gjhin thought.

Placing the tiger meat over a flame, it didn't seem safe since the hideout was made entirely of wood, however, it didn't burn and seemed perfectly safe instead. It didn't take long for the meat to cook, as all four of them sat around the fire and shared the tiger meat.

Gjhin ate the least of the four, only eating a single leg, while Ace, Sabo, and Luffy ate the rest of the tiger by themselves. Even though Ace had said so, it still shocked him to see them eat the entire tiger in front of his eyes. It seemed like he would have to get used to this sight as he lived with them.
