The Ouroboros Pirates' ship Jormungandr was currently sailing in the ocean.

One night, Lepus who was on the deck saw the full moon that had just appeared and was shining brightly.

Inwardly, he thought of something.

'It's time....'

Tonight is the night after the Strawhat Pirates went to Skypeia and defeated Enel.

And Lepus currently wants to try something.

Lepus then said to Brisa who accompanied him on the deck.

"I'm going away for a bit...."

Brisa was confused why suddenly Lepus said he was leaving. Brisa asked.

"Where, Danna-sama?"

Lepus then answered briefly.

"Getting rid some trash.... Don't ask."

Brisa frowned slightly not understanding. But in the end she accepted whatever Lepus said.

".... Alright. Be careful, Danna-sama."

"Hn. I'll be right back!"

Lepus kissed Brisa's forehead.

After that, Lepus opened the gap and left.

When Lepus came out of the gap, all he could see around him was a sea of ​​white. Or rather a sea of ​​white clouds.

And not far away, Lepus saw a large ship with a large face of gold visible on its deck.

The ship is Maxim. Enel's ark that uses lightning power to move.

Lepus then headed to the ship and to the deck.

There, Lepus saw a shirtless man with a large ring on his back, sitting on a throne in front of a golden face. He is Enel. And he still seems to be quite injured from the fight with Luffy.

Seeing that someone suddenly appeared in front of him, Enel was quite surprised and frowned.

"Who are you?"

Enel asked.

And Lepus only answered coldly.

"It doesn't matter who I am.... Die!"

Lepus without further ado uses Haki and moves to kick Enel so hard that he crashes into the wall of the golden face behind him!

"Guhahhh!!!!"

Enel was so surprised! He didn't think that this unknown person who had suddenly appeared could hit and injure him so heavily! Though, this unknown person is definitely not rubber like Luffy! Even this guy only used regular kicks and there didn't appear to be any devil fruit power at all!

Seeing Enel who looked completely dumbfounded and shocked, Lepus again said coldly to him.

"Hmph! You think just because you're a Logia, you can't die? Foolish...."

Then Lepus from the storage in his gap took out his sword Fugekkou and then various kinds of fruit that he placed on the floor.

Then Lepus approached Enel.

"Die!"

Lepus then uses Fugekkou's sword which is infused with Busoshoku Haki, and stabs the heart in Enel's left chest!

*jleb

"Aaaaahhhh!!!!!!!!"

Enel screamed in pain and vomited blood! He was very, very surprised! He was supposed to be an invincible Lightning Logia! But just today, twice was he able to be hit and hurt by others! Moreover, this time he would not only be injured but would also die! And truly die! Not like when he was 'killed' by Wyper with a Reject Dial but he could 'resurrect' himself with an electric shock!

Not long after, Enel breathed his last.

Lepus nodded, then he took a close look at the various fruits he had placed on the floor deck around Enel's body.

Some time later, Lepus saw a phenomenon where one of the fruits changed color and shape! The previously oval-shaped fruit turned from yellow to bright blue! And the shape has also changed from a plain oval to a scaly swirl carved pattern with the tip forming like a thunderbolt! And the fruit stalk also turns into a swirling arch!

"Yes! I did it!"

Seeing the phenomenon that occurred, Lepus realized that the experiment was successful! The experiment that Lepus did was to transfer the devil fruit power from a recently dead user to a new fruit!

Lepus did this experiment based on the main story of the One Piece series that he remembered during the Punk Hazard Arc. In the arc, the phenomenon is shown that the power of a devil fruit whose user just died will transfer to a new fruit that is nearby! Maybe it actually won't always succeed, but at least there is a chance!

After the phenomenon of the formation of the Goro Goro no Mi devil fruit just finished, Lepus then kept the devil fruit as well as other ordinary fruits.

Then, he took Enel's body and threw it into the sea of ​​clouds.

After that, Lepus moved away from Maxim then used his Boundary power.

"Broke-Intact Boundary!"

Lepus dismantle Maxim!

Not long after, Maxim was slowly dismantled and separated into several main parts. Namely, first the wood that became the body of Maxim's ark. Second, Gold from the Face Wall, Control Panel Throne, and Maxim Drive Circuit Construction. And third, 200 Jet Dials which are backup power.

Lepus then kept the Gold and Jet Dials from Maxim, while the wood he left it aside and threw away.

After everything was finished, Lepus opened the gap to return to The Jormungandr.

When Lepus returned to The Jormungandr, the ship seemed to stop with the anchor dropping and the sails rolled.

On the deck, Lepus saw the figure of Brisa who was still leaning in the previous place. Lepus approached and hugged her from behind.

"Kya!"

Brisa was a little surprised when someone suddenly hugged her. However, she then realized that it was Lepus who was hugging her and she calmed down.

"Danna-sama...."

Lepus then said to Brisa.

"Why don't you go inside? It's cold outside here. Let's get in."

"Um."

Brisa nodded.

Lepus then took Brisa's hand and headed to the room to 'warm up' themselves.
