Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Deep Hydra

The One Hundred Hydra dropped from the sky at an alarming rate. Zora held on by the mast and had a huge smile on her face. Hydra fell through the clouds and the great blue sea was visible. Zora not wanting her ship to be demolished, let go of the mast and put her hand on the deck. She infused Haki into the lower part of the ship and braced for impact.

Hydra hit the surface of the ocean and splashed into the water, creating a large wave. The ship rocked back and forth, though it was completely intact. Zora was completely drenched in water and went to change. She came out of her cabin in a new outfit consisting of a black sarashi wrap around her chest, shorts that end right above her midthigh, and leg wraps that end right below her tattoo, along with a black robe with red flowers.

"Now we set sail!" Zora said as she sat on the figurehead and let the wind take her boat wherever.

'Are you sure you want to sail like this? How do you even know where you're going?' Masamune asked.

"I don't have a navigator, so I sail based on my instincts. I can feel an island is near, also, when can we begin training?" Zora said with excitement at the end.

'Depends on how far the island is, we can begin now.' Masamune said as she was unsheathed by Zora.

"We're around 1-2 weeks away, so how do we start?" Zora said as she got into a stance.

'Swing 100 times and increase by 5 everytime you reach your limit.' Masamune said as she made herself 10x heavier, going from 30lbs to 300lbs.

"Alright!" Zora said as she began her training.

[2 weeks later]

"Haa...Haa...Haa..." Zora panted on one knee using Masamune as support.

'You've done well these past two weeks, although it's only the basics with your learning speed you'll be proficient in a few months.' Masamune said proudly.

"Thank you, Masamune!" Zora said as she finally regained her breath. She stood up and sheathed Masamune as she walked inside the ship's kitchen. She dug into her sack and pulled out a few pounds of meat and began eating. She finished and looked at the devil fruit sitting on her counter, she picked it up and contemplated.

"Masamune, do you know what fruit this is?" Zora asked Masamune just in case.

'I haven't the slightest idea, although if you are planning on absorbing its abilities you won't gain the weakness of a devil fruit user.' Masamune stated.

"YOLO." Zora said as she attempted to Devour the devil fruits spiritual energy. Her right arm was hardened by a purple-hued Haki and released an aura that took the shape of a mouth full of teeth, it clamped around the devil fruit and Zora felt a rush of abilities and spiritual energy flow into her.

"Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Deep Hydra!" Zora said as she began to go through physical changes. Her recently gained tiger tail fell off and was replaced by a long purplish-black draconian tail adorned with a sharp end. Her horns gained purplish-black scaled and grew a couple of inches, her eyes changed from yellow to a deep purple, the edges of her eyes also gained purplish-black scales.

"This fruit could come in handy." Zora said as she checked herself out.

'What are the abilities?' Masamune asked eagerly.

"I have numerous abilities to name a few, I can control the purple variant of lightning to a masterful degree, I can also breathe said lightning. I can go into my complete Hydra form, which best works underwater but I can also fly via lightning. Speaking of underwater, this fruit isn't affected by seastone or the ocean in general. My half-beast form allows me to imbue my lightning with Haki making it much more destructive and in my Hydra form, I can quite literally create storms and infuse them with Haki. Those are the surface abilities, I have to use the fruit to figure out the rest." Zora said with a smile.

'That's amazing Zora! We will conquer the seas, Meito and Human the ultimate duo!' Mesa mine said with excitement for the future.

"Yeah!" Zora said with a huge smile, showing off her canine teeth.

'How close are we to the island!' Masamune asked Zora who was playing with her newfound abilities, specifically the lightning.

"We should arrive in a couple of hours, which gives me all the time to get familiar with my abilities." Zora said as she raised her hands in the air, causing clouds to cover the ship and rain to fall along with strikes of purple lightning. She pointed her finger in a random direction and a huge bolt of lightning struck. She stopped the storm and the sky returned to normal.

"That was only in my base form! Imagine that same strike in my Hydra form!" Zora exclaimed excitedly.

'Let's test that out.' Masamune said in an excited tone as well.

Zora untied Masamune from her waist and placed her on the rails so she can 'see'. Zora dived into the water and swam deep before deciding to transform. She activated her transformation and the weather took an immediate change, going from sunny with a slight breeze to dark with hurricane-force winds. Numerous amounts of thick lightning bolts struck the location above Zora and a whirlpool was formed above her. It was then, a huge bump appeared in the water and what bursted was a head large enough to swallow the One Hundred Hydra with no problem. The head then left the water and what followed was a gigantic body, the size of a small town. The Hydra had one head and was covered in purplish-black scales along with giant horns on the side of its head.

Zora left the water completely and allowed lightning to lift her up by creating rings around her 4 legs, each with 4 toes and sharp talons. She flew clumsily for a few minutes but eventually got the hang of it. She roared in excitement which created large gusts of wind and large waves. She flew above the One Hundred Hydra to speak to Masamune.

"Look! I'm so big!" Zora said with excitement as she looked down.

'SUBARASHI!! This is amazing!' Masamune said sharing the excitement with Zora.

"If I trained with this fruit, we can conquer the entire world!" Zora said as she roared once again in excitement.

'Yes! World Domination!' Masamune said with an insane laugh.

"Fuck being King of the Pirates, or destroying the World Government! We'll become Gods!" Zora said and both she and Masamune laughed insanely.
