The Way to Become Stronger

On the way back to Secon Island, Giotto basically stayed in the cabin alone. He needed to become stronger than he was now. As the leader of the Vongola Family, he couldn't allow himself to be stuck at this level!

The most direct way was to increase the Vongola Family Completion Rate. This way, all his abilities would be enhanced. However, it was not easy to increase the Completion Rate. Either he had to expand Vongola Family or complete the mission that would pop up occasionally.

Both of them were relatively slow and would consume quite a lot of time, so he decided to try another idea, which was the classic item of One Piece world...

Devil fruit!

Known as the secret treasure on the sea, one of them could fetch hundreds of millions in Belly. It was said to be enchanted by sea devils. Whoever consumes them would get superpower or special trait, but the seas turned against them, rendering them unable to swim.

The Devil Fruit was divided into three categories: Paramecia, Logia, and Zoan

Of course, any type of Devil Fruit would increase its eater's strength by a large margin. After all, the extent of the ability of a Devil Fruit depended on the strength of the eater.

For example, Whitebeard's Devil Fruit was called the strongest Paramecia, but in Giotto's eyes, it was because the one who ate it was Whitebeard that it was called the strongest Paramecia. Had it been someone else who ate it, it might not be called the strongest Paramecia-type Devil Fruit.

But then again, eating the devil fruit could indeed significantly improve one's strength, especially the rare Logia-type or Mythical Zoan ones.

Since he was in the One Piece world, he should naturally borrow the power of this world. The Devil Fruit was a very good choice because, in addition to his own, he could also enhance his Family members' strength.

For example, Knuckle. As the strongest boxer, his physical prowess was exceptional. On top of it, he could use Sun Flame, giving him an even more advantage in battle. Even from the previous fight between him and Big Mom, it could be seen that he could rival an Admiral's power.

If he could eat some powerful Paramecia or Zoan-type Devil Fruit, his strength would definitely improve further.

However, Giotto was still hesitating about whether to borrow the power of the Devil Fruit or not. Because a Devil Fruit user had the ultimate weakness of sea stones and seawater, and in certain situations, it might reduce his combat strength.

"No, I'm gravely mistaken. Those who are truly powerful will not be affected by the Devil Fruit's weakness!

Giotto frowned and muttered to himself, "Whitebeard, Big Mom, Kaido... These people were Devil Fruit users, but none of them feared sea stones and seawater. In the end, it depends on their own strength. Those who have truly developed their ability will naturally be able to avoid the insignificant side effects."

"Looks like you have finally figured it out, Giotto."

While Giotto was lost in thought, Reborn was already standing in front of him. "I also came up with the same idea some time ago. The Devil Fruit can greatly enhance the Family's strength. However, finding a suitable Devil Fruit with its user isn't an easy task. In order to avoid unnecessary mistakes, I specifically asked Crowley to find something..."

"The Devil Fruit Encyclopedia!"

He then handed a book to Giotto. This book listed various shapes and abilities of the Devil Fruit. With this book, he could avoid eating the wrong devil fruit to a certain extent.

"You're as reliable as always, Reborn." Giotto smiled and took the picture. He didn't expect that Reborn had already come up with a solution for the problem he had just thought of.

After a slightly proud smile, Reborn continued, "after some research, I have chosen some Devil Fruits that should be suitable for you and the Guardians. Although the Guardian we have now is only Knuckle, I think it won't hurt to start preparing now."

"First, let's talk about the suitable Devil Fruit for you, Giotto. In my opinion, the most suitable Devil Fruit for you should be a fire Logia-type, Flame-Flame Fruit. That Devil Fruit can strengthen your Dying Will Flame since it's also a flame, right?"

Hearing this, Giotto's eyes widened slightly.

Dying Will Flame was also a flame?

That seemed to be true. Besides, even if it weren't, the Flame-Flame Fruit itself had great potential, especially the ability to alter the flame's temperature. How could lava burn flame? In Giotto's opinion, this only happened because Ace did not have enough mastery over the Flame-Flame Fruit.

Moreover, Giotto himself had good control over the flame. If he ate the Flame-Flame Fruit, he would definitely be able to use it smoothly.

Flame-Flame Fruit was indeed the best choice for him, but it was not easy to get it!

"After returning to Secon Island, I will think of a way to get the Flame-Flame Fruit." Giotto nodded in agreement and made a decision in his heart.

After pausing for a moment, Reborn continued, "Well, in that case, let's talk about Knuckle again. As a Sun Guardian, he had considerably high-level physical skills, so I think the most suitable for him should be a Paramecia or Zoan-type. After reading this encyclopedia, I also came up with several choices..."

"Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Twinkle-Twinkle Fruit, Heat-Heat Fruit, Mythical Zoan Bird:Phoenix, or other Mythical and Ancient Zoan-type."

As Giotto listened to Reborn's list, the corner of his mouth twitched, and then he looked at Reborn in front of him with the look, "Are you kidding me?"

"Are you saying that we should go back to destroy Whitebeard pirates? Or go to Whole Cake Island again and destroy Big Mom Pirates?"

"I am not joking, Giotto," Reborn said as if he was looking at an idiot.

"You start it!"

In an instant, Giotto became hysterical.

Did he realize what he just said?

The Devil Fruits that Reborn mentioned just now were indeed suitable for Knuckle, but all of them either belonged to Whitebeard Pirates or Big Mom Pirates.

Obtaining it was basically out of the question!
