For example, the navy gave them the code name "Sky Calamity Brigade" and bounty posters for the crew members.

Although Ron was a little annoyed by the codename and thought it was a bit cringeworthy, Connie and Bonnie thought it was cool.

Bonnie and Connie were overjoyed to have a bounty on their heads, while Kung Fu Dugong Seven was quite disappointed that no bounty was on their heads.

Robin felt somewhat guilty about this.

Ultimately, it was because of her that everyone on the ship became criminals whom the World Government and the Navy could not tolerate.

However, she quickly came to her senses.

Since things have come to this point, there's no point in pursuing it any further.

It's better to make yourself stronger so that you can better help your companions when facing danger in the future!

After figuring it out, she was no longer confused or hesitant, and focused all her energy on developing the abilities of the flower-fruit.

If your offensive capabilities aren't strong, then focus on your support abilities.

Soon, after gathering some intelligence in the North Sea, Ron used his ability to make the ship float in the sky again.

this day.

After testing Bonney, Robin, Connie, and Seven's current strength, Ron announced something to everyone on the ship, including Kuina.

"Starting today, I will formally teach you breathing techniques."

"Breathing...method?"

Everyone except Kuina was a bit confused.

Kuina, who knew a little about it, explained to them: "It's a unique breathing method that helps to circulate qi and blood, increase strength, and restore physical strength."

Robin and the others looked surprised and enlightened.

But then Ron's voice rang out again.

"It's not just these functions."

Ron glanced at Kuina and said, "Back then, I didn't fully master the breathing technique either, so what I taught you was just a rough and simplified version."

"Eh?"

Kuina was somewhat stunned. The breathing technique that had helped her so much was actually just a rough version?!

"A truly complete breathing technique is even more powerful."

As Ron spoke, he clenched his right fist and swung it out at the sea of ​​clouds to his side, all under the watchful eyes of the others.

The fierce force of the punch instantly dispersed a large area of ​​clouds in front, forming a fan-shaped cloudless zone with a radius of several tens of meters.

"This is the punching power without using breathing techniques. Next, I will demonstrate the punching power using breathing techniques. Watch carefully."

As Ron spoke, under the attentive gaze of Kuina and the others, he took a light breath and began practicing the Breathing of the Sun technique.

His blood and qi surged, his black hair moved without wind, and an invisible spiral of qi coiled around his fist.

A punch of equal force was thrown to the side at the now-restored sea of ​​clouds.

It was accompanied by a deafening roar as if the air had been blasted apart.

A strong wind swept through, and visible air currents spread out to both sides.

Everyone's hair was flying wildly.

The clouds around the ship were completely dispersed by this punch, and a cloudless area more than two hundred meters long and several meters wide appeared in the sea of ​​clouds directly in front of Ron's fist.

Ron withdrew his fist, turned to the group of people who were still in shock, and smiled, "This is the difference between using breathing techniques and not using them when you have the same punching power. Breathing techniques can greatly help to concentrate and control power, allowing the same amount of power to exert greater force."

"Of course. I have now reached the top level in my mastery of breathing techniques. You could never have reached this level at the beginning."

"After mastering the breathing techniques to circulate qi and blood, it can also greatly help to sense and enhance Armament Haki."

Ron looked at Kuina and smiled, "Kuina, you should have sensed that too, right?"

She nodded slightly.

"Master, master, I want to learn, teach me!"

Little Seven couldn't contain herself any longer. She looked at Ron with excitement, her little eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"Don't rush. There are many different characteristics of breathing techniques. I will teach you according to your individual characteristics."

"Since we have become a thorn in the side of the World Government and the Navy, unless we stay in the sky, we will inevitably be hunted down by the Navy as soon as we return to the sea. There may even be an attack by an admiral-level force. The danger is not small. Therefore, you need to improve your combat power as much as possible in the coming period of time."

Ron crossed his arms and addressed the crowd.

"Six months later, we will enter the Grand Line."

Six months—that was Ron's approximate estimate of how long it would take him to master and become familiar with the Float-Float Fruit's abilities.

Six months should be enough time for them to reach a point where they can use breathing techniques proficiently.

"I'm ready."

Connie said seriously.

Robin and the others also looked serious.

Ron smiled at them and said, "Even so, there's no need to be so serious and tense. Relax."

The girls exchanged glances and, upon seeing the sturdy-looking Manatee Xiaoqi standing upright with her hands on either side of her tail, wearing a green headscarf and looking serious, they couldn't help but laugh. Their laughter, like clear bells, instantly dispelled the tense atmosphere, restoring the relaxed and warm atmosphere of the day.

Hearing their laughter, Xiao Qi turned around, scratched her head, and looked at Ron with some confusion: "Master? What's wrong?"

Ron couldn't help but chuckle at its silly, dazed look.

"nothing."

130. A hypothetical scenario regarding the power of the Float-Float Fruit.

Each person is taught a different breathing technique based on their individual characteristics.

Kuina practiced the Thunder Breathing technique to unleash its strongest power.

Connie practices the gentle and calming water breathing technique.

Bonney relies mainly on her Devil Fruit ability in combat, and since her Devil Fruit ability requires physical contact with her opponent, the Insect Breathing technique, which enhances her agility and speed, is the most suitable.

Like her, Robin also practiced the Insect Breathing Technique to enhance her speed and agility.

With a passionate personality and an innate love of fighting, the kung fu manatee Xiao Qi practices the Flame Breathing Technique.

Ron also taught Kuina, who was also a swordsman, the accompanying sword technique of the Breath of Light.

There is only one style.

However, when cultivated to its peak, this is also the strongest move in the Thunder Breathing Sword Technique.

Focus on one point, and reach the pinnacle!

A flash of thunder!

For a long time after Kuina learned the Breathing of Lightning, the Voyager was accompanied by a roar that tore through the air, and a golden bolt of lightning would flash from the bow to the stern, leaving a long-lasting arc of sword energy in the air.

While the crew members on board were learning and practicing breathing techniques to improve themselves.

Ron wasn't idle either.

Through daily practice, his understanding of the Float-Float Fruit's power became clearer, and his mastery of it became increasingly close to that of the Golden Lion.

This includes directly lifting a small island into the sky, raising a certain area of ​​land, condensing seawater, and controlling the sea of ​​clouds.

Using this ability to launch large-scale attacks is incredibly easy.

Moreover, in the process of developing this capability.

Ron thought of Fujitora's Gravity-Gravity Fruit, which allowed him to manipulate gravity.

Since Fujitora can create gravity waves by relying on gravity, generating a repulsive force that repels everything, what about the Float-Float Fruit, which can also control gravity?

Could it be possible to extend the power of the fruit, similar to the Gravity Fruit which manipulates gravity, to the four fundamental forces?

However, after actual testing, Ron found that it was impossible to do so.

The Float-Float Fruit cannot control gravity; it can only free inanimate objects from its pull. The user's strength lies in this control, not in the ability to arbitrarily adjust the magnitude of gravity.

The power of the Gravity Fruit lies in its ability to adjust the strength and direction of gravity, but it cannot directly control objects.

The two are somewhat similar, but there are still significant differences.

In terms of Devil Fruit abilities alone.

Obviously, the fruit that can directly manipulate gravity and achieve lateral gravity, zero gravity, anti-gravity, pressure, tension, repulsion, and even attraction is stronger.

Upon closer examination, both the Gravity Fruit and the Float Fruit can counter each other's abilities.

Ultimately, who is stronger depends on the individual with the ability.

Ron was also looking forward to the day he would meet Fujitora.

Was it his gravity that pulled him down, or could the Float-Float Fruit ignore his gravitational pull?

Since we know that the Float-Float Fruit cannot control gravity, but can only free all non-living objects from the Earth's gravity, thus achieving the state of 'floating'...

Ron then shifted the direction in which he developed the Float-Float Fruit's power.
