Chapter 297: That Devil Fruit

At night after the big feast, Buggy & Bellemere sleep together. They just do it in Belle's house, but they toned it down so they won't disturb the kids' sleep. Then after their night session, both of them talk on the bed.

"B, I have a request. Can you train me? I want to be strong so that I can handle the danger that might come in the future," says Belle.

"Sure, but why so suddenly?" asks Buggy.

"Don't feign ignorance. You know it as well, that if the Marine knows our relationship, they might try to do something to me & the girls. I don't want the girls to be in danger, so I need to be strong," says Belle.

Buggy smiles and says, "Alright then, but it won't be easy. I won't go easy on the training just because you are my lover."

"Hmph, I will punch you if you go easy on me," says Belle smugly.

Buggy laughs and then they go to sleep so that they can rest. The next day, they start the training after breakfast. They go to an empty space with Nojiko & Nami. They can't leave the girls because it might take a rather long time to finish.

Before the training starts, Buggy gives a small box to Belle. She opens it and sees a strange fruit with twirl patterns inside. It's the devil fruit that Buggy found on the volcano in Ruff's hometown. He has kept it for a long time because he planned to give it to Belle.

"What devil fruit is this?" asks Belle.

"I don't know, no one knows. It isn't listed in the Devil Fruit encyclopedia, so it's an unknown devil fruit. It might have an ability that you'll like or hate so it will be a gamble. People will say it might be a strong or weak devil fruit, but I do not agree with that. There is no such thing as weak or strong devil fruits, there are only strong & weak users. It all depends on how the users train & utilize their devil fruits. So how is it? Do you want to take the bet?" asks Buggy while smirking.

Belle looks at Buggy and then the kids before looking at the devil fruits. She doesn't say anything before she takes a bite of the devil fruit.

"Ugh, it's disgusting," says Belle with a very disgusted expression.

She is very disgusted, but she still continues to eat the fruit. Belle eats all the fruit's flesh and only leaves the unedible parts. Buggy doesn't say anything and just lets her eat the whole fruit because it looks funny.

"Do you feel something?" asks Buggy.

"W-Wait! Let me drink something first to wash away this disgusting taste," says Belle before she gulps a glass of orange juice immediately.

Buggy waits for her to finish drinking before asking her to show him her power. Devil fruit users will instantly know what their ability is. So Belle also knows instantly after she ate the fruit.

"Wait, Nojiko! You shouldn't touch her carelessly. Her body is full of flame, so it might be very hot. Your hand might get burnt," says Buggy.

"B-But... Sorry," says Nojiko sadly.

Buggy pats her hair and says, "It's okay, I'm not angry at you, just worried. Let me check her thoroughly first, alright? I will let you touch her if it's safe."

Nojiko nods and Buggy gives Nami to her so he can inspect Belle's power closely. He tries to touch the dark red flame and it's really hot upon touching. It wasn't this hot when they stand close to each other, but it becomes very hot upon touching.

Belle's body is also hot enough to hurt normal people. Even Buggy will get hurt if he touches it for too long. Luckily, he stopped Nojiko from touching Belle or her hand might get burnt.

"Hmm, the heat doesn't spread from your body or flame. Most likely, it's because you are still new to this power and you are still weak. I'm glad though because sometimes, a new user's power can get out of control because they aren't used to their new abilities yet. At least your power stays inside your body because you can't draw them out yet," says Buggy.

"I don't know if that's an insult or a compliment, but I'm glad that I didn't hurt the kid because of that," says Belle.

Buggy nods and says, "That's right, safety is very important. I've decided on the training that I'll give you. We will train here every day and it will just be the 2 of us. The kids aren't allowed to come until you have good control."

Bellemere nods back and says, "Aye Aye, Instructor."
