Child of Nature: "If your physical constitution isn't strong enough, using a few big moves will drain you completely. You might compare it to Kakashi from Naruto… and honestly, you might even be worse off."
Child of Nature: "With a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit, not only can your physical constitution be greatly enhanced—allowing you to train Haki and wield the Sharingan—but the potential is also immense."
Child of Nature: "What do you all think?"
Most Evil Spirit: applause
Uchiha Dance King: applause
Be My Son: applause
Bo Da Gu Ao Cheng Tang: applause
Ordinary Group Owner: "We hadn't considered that before… impressive, really impressive."
Ordinary Group Owner: thumbs up
It wasn't mere flattery—Su Yunqing genuinely thought this through. She had only considered the flaws of Devil Fruits and focused on the chat group's current inability to eliminate those flaws.
She hadn't realized that right now, what mattered most for her was strength.
Whether it was for safety in the main world or for earning points after the chat group's full features were unlocked, strength was the key.
No points, no matter how many optimization functions the chat group eventually had, what could she do?
Accumulating points just by signing in? That would take ages.
Child of Nature: "I can understand why they didn't think of this—they're still unfamiliar with the chat group, focusing only on the present. But you…"
"You're a transmigrator, and you became the chat group's owner. A little confidence in the chat group is only natural."
Ordinary Group Owner: "Ahem… um, let's talk about something else, shall we?"
Su Yunqing turned her head, slightly embarrassed, thinking it better to change the subject.
Child of Nature: "Then I'll continue."
Child of Nature: "Analysis is mostly done. The only real challenge now is the rarity of Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits!"
Child of Nature: "From what I know in the One Piece world, Mythical Zoans include: Sengoku's Human-Human Fruit, Buddha Form; Marco's Phoenix Fruit; Kaido's Fish-Fish Fruit, Azure Dragon Form; Catarina's Nine-Tailed Fox; and the massive Yamata no Orochi Fruit from Blackbeard."
Child of Nature: "I'm not entirely sure about Kaido's, since I haven't followed the later One Piece arcs closely."
Child of Nature: "So far, the entire One Piece world has only produced these five Mythical Zoans—and every owner is formidable."
Child of Nature: "Putting Marco aside, acquiring any of the other four requires stealing the fruit's power secretly, something even Whitebeard struggled with."
Child of Nature: "After all, they're all strong, and Whitebeard himself isn't in top condition right now."
Child of Nature: "So you'd still need the entire Whitebeard crew to locate it—you'll just have to wait."
Child of Nature: "@Be My Son, you know about Teach, Ace, and the Summit War, right?"
Be My Son: "All of that was uploaded to me as memory copies on my first day in the group."
Be My Son: "Teach hid a Devil Fruit in my pirate crew for so many years… I really underestimated him."
Whitebeard's gaze grew complicated. He truly treated Teach like a son and never imagined that such a straightforward, honest man could hide so deeply. Both in strength and character.
Be My Son: "Kururururu… @Child of Nature, I understand your point. Compared to the fate of the Whitebeard crew, a single Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit is nothing."
Be My Son: "I will do everything in my power to find the most suitable Mythical Zoan for the Group Owner."
Child of Nature: "I trust in the old man's reputation."
Child of Nature: "I'm just giving the Group Owner a heads-up."
Ordinary Group Owner: "???"
Ordinary Group Owner: "A heads-up about what? You just made me nervous!"
Child of Nature: "Every gift of fate has already been silently marked with its price."
Child of Nature: "The information you see as just an anime is, for others, their future—their chance to change destiny, to save everything."
Child of Nature: "You can be a bit selfish and trade what you know for something useful to you—because what you give up is always extremely costly."
This is why in nearly every chat-group-style novel, the protagonist uses their knowledge to trade for advantages. The difference is only in how much they trade.
Su Yunqing was a first for him.
Uchiha Dance King: "Every gift of fate has already been silently marked with its price."
Uchiha Dance King: "Good line, rookie. I admit you."
Most Evil Spirit: "Oh my… the Group Owner is far too kind. Do you even realize what this information represents to us?"
Most Evil Spirit: "If you need anything, I'll do anything for you."
Ordinary Group Owner: "Don't misunderstand, I don't have that kind of interest, okay?"
Just Like That Meow: "We still didn't catch Pikachu, darn it!"
Just Like That Meow: "But that little brat didn't win the championship after all."
Just Like That Meow: licks paw
Golden Flash: "Are you guys on a different channel? Never mind… as [Child of Nature] said, the Group Owner's information is extremely important to me."
Golden Flash: "If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask."
Inside, Minato Namikaze thought resolutely.
Because Uchiha Madara had no interest in his own future, Su Yunqing hadn't previously shared the Naruto memory copy.
But when Minato came in, she sent it over. Not exactly like the original work, but highlighting what she thought was important for him to see:
Naruto's childhood hardships
Where he lived
His outrageously low living allowance
Of course, the Nine-Tails incident had to be included—without it, nothing else would make sense.
This information was crucial for Minato.
Whether it was the Nine-Tails attack or Naruto's treatment by Konoha, it almost made him think: "Is this the Konoha I risked my life to protect? Might as well let it all die."
He still couldn't understand why the Third Hokage had done that.
Because of old enemies? To hide Naruto's identity?
Are you kidding me?
The entire Konoha with the Uzumaki surname… besides his wife Kushina and the First Hokage's wife Mito, who else is there?
Bearing the Uzumaki name, were they idiots? Couldn't they figure out Naruto is my son?
