Naruto: Fire-Release system

Chapter 271: The Powers of the Carnation Fruit!

Originally, Uchiha Yi had planned to use Lily Carnation's traits to create a dual-Devil Fruit ability.

Instead, by some unexpected twist, he had accidentally created a Logia-type Devil Fruit.

This turn of events left him both amused and speechless.

Now that Nami had eaten the fruit, Uchiha Yi was genuinely curious—

What kind of abilities did this rare Plant-variant Logia grant?

—

Not long after consuming the Carnation Fruit, Nami felt a strange power begin to circulate inside her body.

She could control it as easily as moving her own limbs.

At the same time, a stream of information flowed into her mind, revealing basic details about the fruit.

—

Carnation Fruit

Ability: The Flower of Life and Death

Description: By absorbing life energy, the user can heal any injury, achieve eternal youth, and even attain immortality.

—

"Oh…!"

After processing the information, Nami's jaw dropped, unable to hide her shock.

—

"What's wrong?"

"Nami, tell us—what's the ability of this Devil Fruit?"

Her reaction immediately piqued everyone's curiosity—especially Vivi, who wasted no time pressing for answers.

—

"I… I… This fruit's power… is just… too… too…"

Nami stuttered, struggling to find the right words.

—

"What is it?!

"Spit it out already!"

Vivi grabbed Nami's arm, shaking her impatiently.

—

Finally, Nami took a deep breath and explained:

"This fruit's ability is tied to life and death!"

"It allows me to absorb life energy—both to heal wounds and to maintain eternal youth and immortality!"

—

"Huh?!"

Vivi instantly regretted her decision—

"If I had known, I would have eaten it instead!"

She pouted in frustration.

—

"I'm curious about one thing…"

"The meaning behind carnations in flower language has nothing to do with life and death."

"So why would this fruit have these abilities?"

Uchiha Yi found it hard to understand.

Carnations were normally associated with love, purity, and admiration—

Not immortality and resurrection.

—

"I have no idea."

Nami shook her head.

She only knew the basic abilities of the fruit after eating it—

but not why it had these properties.

—

"As a Logia-type Devil Fruit, how does your body transform?"

Uchiha Yi asked.

—

"Like this!"

Instead of explaining, Nami demonstrated it directly.

At first, her appearance didn't change much—

But then, a single green leaf suddenly sprouted from her head.

—

"Vivi, try attacking me!"

Nami said confidently.

—

"Alright, let's see!"

Vivi raised her whip and lashed it toward Nami.

—

"Snap!"

Surprisingly, the whip actually struck Nami's body—even though she was supposed to be a Logia user!

—

"Huh?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Normally, non-Haki-infused attacks should pass through a Logia user's body.

Had Nami failed to transform in time?

—

"Did that hurt?"

Vivi asked.

—

"Not at all!"

"Because you weren't hitting my real body!"

Nami smiled calmly.

—

"Huh?"

Vivi looked completely lost.

—

"I transferred my real body into the leaf on my head."

"Essentially, my transformation works differently from regular Logia fruits."

"As long as my true body remains untouched, my physical form becomes nothing more than an empty husk!"

"It doesn't feel pain or take damage!"

"But if my true body is found and destroyed, I'll die instantly!"

Nami explained.

—

"Wait, doesn't that make your Logia transformation kinda weak?"

Vivi raised an eyebrow.

—

"No!"

"Paired with Uchiha Yi's 'Domain Prison,' Nami would be nearly invincible!"

Robin countered immediately.

—

This fruit's transformation mechanics were completely different from typical Logia abilities.

In fact, it was somewhat similar to Blackbeard's Yami Yami no Mi (Dark-Dark Fruit)—

Which couldn't phase through attacks like other Logias but instead absorbed damage through gravitational pull.

For the Carnation Fruit, the user's consciousness relocated, making their original body a puppet-like husk.

As long as their true body remained safe, they would be immortal.

—

"This Devil Fruit has serious potential!"

Uchiha Yi nodded in approval.

Right now, Nami had just acquired it—

But as she mastered its abilities, she would be able to control multiple puppet bodies.

Just like Lily Carnation, which had spread its roots across the entire island, creating an army of puppets.

If Nami reached that level, she could essentially become a hive-mind entity.

—

"By the way, Uchiha Yi… those AI constructs you created—can I absorb them?"

Nami turned to Uchiha Yi expectantly.

—

"Sure."

—

In moments, a row of AI humanoids appeared.

Without hesitation, Nami extended countless vine-like tendrils, wrapping around them.

Within seconds, she drained them completely, leaving behind dry husks.

—

"I'll give you all something good!"

After absorbing the life energy, Nami felt an overwhelming surge of vitality—

Her cells became hyperactive, and her body overflowed with energy.

She had never felt so full of life before.

Then, she touched Uchiha Yi, Robin, and Vivi, transferring some of her excess energy to them.

Instantly, small green leaves sprouted from their shoulders, infused with her shared life force.

—

Among them, Robin experienced the most dramatic change.

—

As the leaf on her shoulder withered, she felt an unprecedented sense of rejuvenation—

Her skin became soft and smooth, as if soaked in milk.

Her complexion glowed with youth, and her appearance now resembled an 18-year-old girl.

—

"AHH!"

"Robin! Your skin is so smooth and fair!"

Vivi gasped, staring in disbelief.

The transformation was so incredible that Robin barely looked like the same person.

With her flawless skin and youthful glow, she could easily pass as a teenager again!
