The first ray of sunlight in the morning draped over the statue like a golden veil, and the eyebrows and eyes carved from white stone became much softer in the halo.

Nami, who had curled up at the foot of the statue all night, had her eyelashes trembling slightly, and her frozen hands and feet gradually regained consciousness.

She slowly opened her eyes and first saw the statue's drooping sleeves covered with fine dust. Then she discovered that there was something heavy pressing on her chest.

The cold wind from last night is still howling in my memory, but now only the warmth of the sun remains, penetrating into my bones along the lines of the fabric.

"The storm has finally stopped, it hurts..." Nami just turned her neck slightly and touched the wound on her face, making her scream in pain.

Suddenly remembering her teacher, Nami realized that Haredas was sleeping not far from her, lying flat on the ground, and she could hear him snoring, proving that he was still alive.

"This is..." Nami's breathing suddenly stopped when she lowered her head. She felt that she might be dizzy, or confused in her sleep, or even dreaming.

A fruit lay quietly under her chest. The fruit was a very light milky white, like a shell washed by moonlight.

The shape is clearly that of a small pineapple, with spiral eyes arranged neatly, but without the rough bumps of ordinary pineapples, it is rounded as if it has been carefully polished.

The strangest thing was the cloud pattern on the surface. It wasn't a printed pattern, but rather a correspondence to some terrifying celestial phenomenon. If the woman wasn't mistaken, this must be a devil fruit! ?

Nami held her breath and touched it lightly with her fingertips. The coolness of the fruit passed through her fingertips. Then her two hands covered the entire fruit, stroking the rough skin of the fruit. It all felt so real.

Nami sat up suddenly, holding the devil fruit in one hand. What happened last night? Could it be that this devil fruit was blown here by the storm, so is everything in front of her a coincidence?

The fruit felt heavier than it looked, about as heavy as two apples. The cloud patterns on the surface gradually came alive in her palm, slowly stretching out as if they had life, and her astonished eyes were reflected in the silvery patterns.

She held the fruit above her head. The morning sun shone through the lines on the statue, casting a swaying spot of light on it. This was not a dream, everything was real.

Nami, in ecstasy, called out to Haredas loudly, asking the old man to see what she had discovered and to share the surprise with her teacher.

Haredas' body was almost shaken apart by Nami. He finally opened his eyes with difficulty and uttered incoherent words, "Be gentle, my old bones can't stand your tossing and turning."

"Teacher, look at this thing, it's a devil fruit, right? This is the first time I've touched such a beautiful devil fruit."

Nami has heard all kinds of magical legends about devil fruits. During her childhood experience as a thief, she occasionally came into contact with devil fruits, but they were all ordinary animal-type ones.

Even though these ordinary items are extremely difficult to steal, eating an animal-type devil fruit can change the fate of an ordinary person.

Only big forces have the habit of collecting devil fruits. When individuals or small forces encounter devil fruits, they will take them on the spot and gain the exclusive power to change their destiny.

"How did you get it? Did the wind blow it here?" Haredas guessed the truth with just one sentence.

"The goddess of luck has not abandoned us. This devil fruit, no matter what its ability is, should help us leave this place." Nami fiddled with the devil fruit in her hand, and liked it more and more.

The fact that a devil fruit fell from the sky can no longer be described as lucky, but can only be described as weird. Haredas has lived long enough and seen a lot, and he always feels that things are not that simple.

But seeing Nami's happy look, Haredas didn't know what to say. He was afraid that saying something bad would cause Nami to misunderstand and make his good apprentice suspect that he wanted to take possession of the devil fruit.

Haredas is already an old man half buried in the earth. He has no desire to fight or be strong. After experiencing such a big change, he just wants to spend his old age in peace. Eating the devil fruit is just a side effect for the old man.

"No matter how bad this devil fruit is, it is still an animal type. Even if we can't leave the deserted island for the time being, it can reduce the difficulty of our survival. Maybe I can turn into a large animal and catch more meat." Nami has decided to eat this devil fruit. Given the dire situation of the two of them, they can only rely on this devil fruit to take a gamble.

"I heard that devil fruits taste terrible. Nami, you have to be mentally prepared. Don't just eat one piece. It's best to eat the whole fruit and get all the power of the fruit." Haredas did not dissuade Nami. After saying this, the old man just looked back at the statue behind him.

The miracle that happened last night, and the devil fruit that fell today, could it be that the statue is alive? Perhaps it was my destiny from the moment I arrived on this deserted island.

"I accept it even if it tastes bad, but it's better than waiting to die in this damn place." Nami took a deep breath, made up her mind, opened her mouth as wide as possible, and bit off a large piece of fruit flesh.

Chewing the flesh of the devil fruit in her mouth, Nami frowned. The most unpalatable food she had ever eaten was better than the devil fruit in her arms.

Resisting the urge to retch, Nami chewed the fruit pulp and swallowed it, "It's so disgusting! I must forget this taste after eating it. I don't want to remember it for the rest of my life."

For her own sake, Nami ate the devil fruit as quickly as possible, swallowing the flesh mechanically, and swallowed the entire fruit in less than a minute.

The woman burped beside the teacher. Although this devil fruit tasted terrible, the flesh was really firm. It made Nami so full that she might not need to eat until noon.

"Nami, feel the power you have gained with your heart." Haredas also hopes that Nami will gain abilities stronger than the animal type, and it would be even better if she has the ability to fly.

"Don't worry, I'll try." Nami had just finished speaking when her feet suddenly lost weight. Her body seemed to be pulled by an invisible thread and slowly floated off the ground.

Haredas's scream came from below. The woman hurriedly tried to grab something around her, but her fingertips passed through the air again and again.

"What's going on? Why can I fly?" Nami screamed, finding herself rising into the air uncontrollably.

One meter, five meters from the ground... her orange hair was blown away by the airflow, revealing her face which was pale with fear.

Even more terrifying things happened one after another. Her arms began to become transparent first, and the muscle texture under the skin seemed to be melted away, replaced by fluffy white mist.

"My body is decomposing." Panic wrapped around her heart like vines. She watched her neck, waist and abdomen... even her short orange hair began to turn into wisps of clouds.

He wanted to scream, but only whimpers like wind blowing through clouds came out of his throat. When his legs completely dissipated into the air, all that was left above Haredas' head was a cumulonimbus cloud that was constantly twisting and deforming.

From Haredas's perspective, the old man was so shocked that he couldn't say anything. He witnessed with his own eyes how Nami was transformed from a living woman into a cloud.

"Could it be that this ability is elemental? Did you eat a nature-type devil fruit?" This was the only explanation Haredas could think of. If it was a parahuman-type devil fruit, there would not be such an effect.

Nami recovered from her previous tension, and gradually relied on her own consciousness to transform her body, which had turned into an elemental cloud, into a human form again. She could deploy this magical power at will.

"It's the Cloud-Cloud Fruit. It actually appears here. It seems that I am destined to have a connection with it." After Nami regained her human form, she floated in the air, rolling and moving in the air, enjoying the freedom of weightlessness in the sky. Her body floated freely like a cloud.

The Yunyun Fruit is the most suitable devil fruit for Nami, no doubt about it.
