Start by Eating Jake Jake no Mi

While Patrick died just like that and felt endless regret as he achieved nothing, Masa quickly moved on to his next target, Douglass Barret. 

Yes, the Devil Fruit that Masa chose for his 7th Devil Fruit was the Gasha Gasha no Mi. 

Naturally, he was sure that this choice was quite controversial as many would question him again. 

Why this Devil Fruit? 

Yet, if one watched the movie, one would be able to tell how wonderful this Devil Fruit was. 

In the hands of Barret, this Devil Fruit could be used to create various weapons, such as a submarine and a giant robot, and he could even combine himself with the entire island, creating a fearsome giant that could destroy everything. 

Yet, this was the ability of the Gasha Gasha no Mi, which allowed the user to telekinetically disassemble objects and reassemble them into whatever they please, making them an Assimilation Human. 

If Masa ate this Devil Fruit, then he could create various machines, ships, giant robots, nuclear bombs, and whatever he wished. 

If he had achieved an "awakening," then he would probably have been able to do a feat similar to Ope Ope no Mi, too. 

Still, even if he didn't achieve an "awakening" state, this Devil Fruit was pretty useful, especially since it could help him to create various machines that he wished. 

If he had this Devil Fruit during his time on Water 7, then he was sure that he could create his ship, Venus, instantly instead of waiting more than two weeks, which showed how amazing this Devil Fruit was. 

Yet, if this were all, then they would be wrong. 

The potential of this Devil Fruit was frightening. Instead, it could be said that it was one of the most fearsome yet also godly abilities that ever existed. 

"Even if I can't disassemble or assemble a human being, I can disassemble all objects, whether it is air, water, or even the environment." 

Masa somehow could imagine that by using this Devil Fruit, he could control the weather of the Drum Kingdom, making it less cold and liveable to all human beings. 

In other words, the so-called ability of Gasha Gasha no Mi allowed him to perform terraforming! 

Somehow, he could imagine that he would create his own rocket by using this ability, then go to Venus, Mars, or even a moon, modify the atmosphere, temperature, surface topography, and ecology of a planet, moon, or other body to be similar to the environment of Earth to make it habitable for humans to live on with this ability. 

Or rather, this Devil Fruit was the solution to every environmental issue that happened in every place! 

Climate change, pollution, environmental degradation, and resource depletion could all be solved with the ability of this Devil Fruit! 

Compared to the Nika, the Gasha Gasha no Mi was more suitable for being called a savior of this world! 

At the same time, for everything that he envisioned, there was no need for him to wait for manpower and time-consuming processes, and everything could be built instantly with the power of Devil Fruit! 

Yet, there was no doubt that the ability of Gasha Gasha no Mi, which Masa told them, made them realize the potential of this Devil Fruit and why Masa wished to get this Devil Fruit no matter what. 

"Then, can you build a horror castle instantly?" Perona asked with shining eyes, which made Masa speechless, but he nodded. "I only need a few minutes or so." 

"..." Perona. 

"Then... then... can you also make gold, diamonds, and other precious metals?" Carina also asked with heavy breathing, to which Masa nodded. "Yes, it's possible." 

Compared to the Goru Goru no Mi, he felt that the Gasha Gasha no Mi was more well-rounded, as it could help him to disassemble and assemble all materials. 

Yes, this Devil Fruit gave him an ability similar to that of an alchemist in the legend, which made him able to create anything except for a living being. 

'But in the future, it might be possible.' 

This was the so-called power of creation, he thought.

Still, even if Masa didn't use this ability, he could create a life with his women, yet there was no doubt whether it was Perona, Carina, and Kalifa who knew that he had to take this Devil Fruit no matter what! 

"Go and take it, Masa!" 3x

No one hesitated, and they supported him in devouring Barret, who had eaten this Devil Fruit. 

Masa also didn't hesitate since not only due to the Devil Fruit, but Barret's talent was also good, especially as a fighter.

With Barrett's strength, it should probably be possible for him to fight toe-to-toe against Kaidou, Big Mom, and Whitebeard, especially with his achievements on the Armament Haki and the Supreme King Haki.

Devouring Barrett gave Masa more benefits than anything! 

Yet, similar to Patrick, Barrett also noticed the strangeness before him. He could tell an invisible figure was staring at him like a hungry vulture, which made him furious like a raging inferno. 

"...what are you planning to do?" 

However, Barret is also nervous, especially when he notices Patrick's disappearance. Unlike the others, who let their guard down, when Patrick shouted, he also started to tense up, yet as he had been kept in this prison for so many years, he was at his lowest point, and he was so, so far away from his peak!

'If I'm not being jailed...' 

Then, Barrett knew that he wouldn't be as helpless as he was now! 

Still facing a criminal, even if Barret had a tragic past, Masa never paid attention and just used the power of Yami Yami no Mi to devour Barret. 

"W-What is this...?!" 

Barret's heart was filled with terror! 

Being beaten and caught by Marines never made him feel this way, but this time, Barret knew that all the struggles he would show were meaningless, and he was as good as dying, like those weak soldiers and people that he had killed in the past!

Yet, this time, his role was reversed, and he became that weak person who could do nothing against the injustice! 

"No! I don't want to die like this! I haven't found someone who can fight me with everything!" 

In many stories, most people would be interested in turning Barret into a subordinate, considering how strong he was, but Masa had to apologize since he really needed the Gasha Gasha no Mi for his next Devil Fruit. 

Then, similar to Patrick, Barret was devoured by Masa! 

However, along with Barrett's last struggle, everyone started to notice the strangeness that happened on this floor. 

"What is happening?" 

"Those were screams of despair, right?" 

"That voice was... Barret, right?" 

Everyone knew Barrett well, especially when they remembered the destruction he caused, and because of that, they started to feel the danger that was about to come in their direction! 

"Wait... did you remember that old man's words?" 

"Then... you think there is someone here?" 

"Impossible!" 

"But what if there is someone here?!" 

"...." 

Everyone fell silent and felt a terror that had appeared beside them without them even realizing it. 

"Help! Help! Help! Anyone! There is an intruder on Level 6!" 

"Magellan! Come on! Go to the Level 6!" 

"Hey, are you all deaf? What's wrong with all of you? Hear us!" 

Yet, no matter how much they shouted, it was meaningless as Masa had taken control over all the Den Den Mushi on this floor, so no one would be able to know what was happening in this place except for those who were close, such as the group of monsters on the 5.5 floors. 

"Hey, did you hear something from below?" 

"What? Do you think those villains on Level 6 are making trouble?" 

"What do you think?" 

"...." 

"IMPOSSIBLE!" 

All of them then laughed happily as they looked at the screens that were connected on Level 6 and confirmed that nothing had happened. 

"LET'S CONTINUE THE PARTY! HEE-HAW!" 

"OOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!" 

Yet, as they had their blast, Masa started to devour, devour, and devour.
