Shape Transformation
Next Day,
Completing his daily One-Punch man workout, Blaize went to enjoy the wonderful delicacies cooked by the Ship's chef.
One day's rest and healthy meat energized the Marines of his unit to some extent. All of them looked energetic and full of strength, ready to confront a pirate crew.
Blaize then stepped inside the forest to experiment with his devil fruit powers. After crossing the '30' bar limit, his heat manipulation improved to a whole new level with a raging temperature.
With a thought, a ball of fire actualized in his hand burning fiercely. The flame was much intense and denser than before; vermillion in texture with a golden tinge around its edges.
Blaize was sure the temperature of the flame is now even fiercer than Fire-Fire fruit. As for whether it's superior to Sakazuki's Magu Magu no mi, he wasn't sure.
Aside from the temperature, the noteworthy trait he noticed is his control over the Heat Manipulation elevated to an astonishing level.
Closing his eyes, Blaize concentrated. The ball of fire in his hand turned brighter while a huge amount of heat massed around, raising the temperature.
Soon, the ball of fire fluctuated intensely as if something is trying to break out of it. And soon, the ball of fire exploded crumbling into a myriad of small fire dots.
The fire dots then clustered together shaping a bird that looked like a raven. The fiery red bird made out of scarlet fire hovered in mid-air flapping its wings.
'As I thought, now I can change the shape of the fire as I want!' The flame bird had no soul but Blaize can control all its movements with his thought.
Guiding the bird, he let it fly. Fluttering its wings, the flame bird looped around him screeching in a high-pitched cry.
With his thought, the bird opened its mouth and breathed fire. A stream of reddish-orange flame flared from its mouth, blazing through everything in its path.
It was a wonderful sight. The flame extinguished anything in its path, leaving an incandescent trail in its wake. The superheated fire stopped only after nearly hollowing a huge hole in the mountain located some distance away from him.
After the attack, the flame bird faded and disappeared completely losing its energy.
His control over the shape transformation is clumsy as it's his first time attempting something like this. Even so, it didn't stop him from experimenting more.
Once again, Blaize conjured a ball of fire over his hand that burned fiercely. With little concentration, he was able to expand it in size.
From the size of a cricket ball to a large boulder. The temperature of the fireball rose to an extreme degree vaporizing everything in the surrounding; Be it trees, rocks, or other things.
The fireball flared and glowed like a miniature sun, exuding high heat. The ability is similar to Ace's Flame emperor or Escanor's cruel sun.
With a slight wave of his hand, the miniature sun hurtled forward and struck the huge mountain. The next second, the mountain was completely erased from existence.
As for the miniature sun, it shuttled forward and crashed into the sea vaporizing everything within a 100-meter radius while misty fumes covered the area.
The sea boiled for a few seconds before returning to its calm.

In the distance,
Regis, Jotto, and other Marines gaped at the now half-destroyed Island and wondered in their heart, 'Where are the mountains that we saw a few moments prior?'
The sheer destructive power of Blaize's attack left them speechless. Regis commented: "This is not something an ordinary human can do!"
"I think captain's strength rivals most of the headquarters Vice Admirals. He's in a completely different league.
If not for his conflict with Vice-Admiral Sakazuki, he would have already promoted to Rear-Admiral considering his current strength." Jotto added.
The other marines also nodded their head as they had witnessed Blaize's overwhelming strength during these six months.
Just as they chatted among themselves, Blaize came back with a refreshed expression. Releasing some of his pent-up emotions gave him a sense of satisfaction.
At that moment, his personal Den Den Mushi buzzed with the 'Purupuru...Purupuru' sound.
"Who's calling me at this hour?" Blaize took out his Den Den Mushi and noticed it's from Sengoku.
Relaxing in a chair, Blaize attended the call and spoke: "Sengoku-san...What a rare occasion for you to call me? How are you doing?"
"Sigh...You brat, let's not talk about me. How's everything on your side?"
"Sengoku-san, there's no need to beat around the bush. I think you know my situation better than anyone!" Blaize smirked.
How could Sengoku doesn't know what's going on? Though he's not the direct cause for what's happening to his unit, in some way he's responsible.
If hadn't placed him under Sakazuki, there's no need for all this hassle.
There's silence from Sengoku's side. In fact, he's monitoring Blaize and his actions during these six months. He feels sorry about him and what he had to go through.
After much contemplation, Sengoku decides to intervene and settle the disagreement between them. He also knew Blaize's strength reached a stage where doing this will have an adverse effect.
Henceforth, he decided against restraining Blaize.
"From today onwards, I am changing your commanding officer to Vice-Admiral Borsalino. You don't have to report to Sakazuki anymore."
"Oh...Sengoku-san, what happened to you, why this sudden change?" Blaize was really surprised.
"Don't make me regret my decision, Blaize!" Saying this, Sengoku ended the communication without speaking anything.
'Kacha'
Keeping the Den Den Mushi away, Blaize smiled. 'Finally!'
Though Blaize hadn't shown anything on the surface, he was always exasperated by narrow-minded Sakazuki and his way of doing things.
"Everyone!" Blaize called his unit and shared the good news, "Let's enjoy ourselves today and from tomorrow, we are going to hunt the pirates!"
"Yes!" The marines exclaimed together, some even shed tears of joy.
