The development level of the More-More Fruit, due to his strength, at the moment he ate it, he didn't need to develop the amplification multiplier; his strength had already reached this aspect.
Just like a certain someone who wished to remain anonymous, Sabo-san, who ate the 'Dog-Refusing Fruit', could throw a Fire Fist right after eating it.
After Sage ate it, he indeed could wield a hundred times power.
However, there weren't many things he could stack.
The idea previously believed in Impel Down, to apply a hundredfold amplification of power, volume, speed, and weight to objects... sorry, his idea was bragging.
It's not that it can't be done, it's just not developed to that extent yet.
Currently, in terms of fruit development, for himself, he's still only able to amplify his speed a hundredfold, and he must wrap his attacks in Haki, or else the body cannot withstand it.
As for objects...
Of the four aspects, he can only stack at most two.
It's not that he can't continue stacking, nor that the body cannot bear it; dead non-living objects don't have the aspect of bearing or not bearing, it's just his ability is only developed to this point.
To stack everything on an object, further development is needed.
But this is already strong enough.
Previously, Sage, wanting to destroy a town, needed to use Haki Bullets for comprehensive bombardment, turning it into ruins.
Now, with the power of that cannonball just released, throwing out one shot is enough.
Although using the Fist Bone's power technique, the inherent power is far greater than normal cannon bombardment, even a normal cannonball, after amplification, is sufficiently mighty.
Not to mention...
In sea battles, he's already on the advantageous side; no matter how many warships come, he won't step back!
Sage clenched his fist, descended to the deck, laughing at the gape-mouthed crowd: "How about it, bad luck cannot compare to strength, hahahaha!"
"Captain Sage!"
Gin was trembling with excitement, "You're truly amazing!"
This was their captain!
Clearly much stronger than before coming out of Impel Down!
"Captain Sage!"
"Master Sage!"
The pirates, initially scared by the cannonball's power, now transformed into admiration, shouting vigorously.
Sage's authority was already substantial, precisely because of unparalleled strength, and now this strength was even more profound, only making these pirates more fervent.
They followed someone who could casually throw a cannonball as if meteors falling...
A true 'natural disaster'!
"Captain Sage, unbelievable!"
Jabra approached, eyes filled with shock, and deeply hidden intense fear, "He actually suppressed the erupting volcanic flow, now it's all spread out across the sea surface and seabed."
Upon hearing this, Lily was taken aback, turned to look at the now dissipated mushroom cloud, and as the mushroom cloud dissipated, the volcano marked with an 'X' calmed down, steam rising outward, condensing into a circular rainbow above, appearing gem-like beautiful.
"Circular, circular rainbow?"
Nami approached the nearest deck, looking towards the area, "So beautiful..."
"Circular rainbow, also known as 'Gem of the Sea'."
Robin gazed at the circular rainbow for a while, then turned to Sage and said, "Perhaps, this is the 'Rainbow Gem'."
"Eh! Is this it!"
Luffy, sitting up from the deck, first grimaced and held his head for a while, then eyes gleaming, looked over, mouth gradually opening, smiling broadly, "Great! Circular rainbow! Rainbow Gem! Hey, white-haired guy, do you want this?"
"Stop joking!"
Sage's face turned serious, "What I want isn't this kind of gemstone, what about those two kids?"
"In the cabin, I let them take shelter there."
Gin replied beside him, bringing the two little girls from the cabin, the first sight that the elder sister and Sayou saw was the circular rainbow, eyes wide, and thoughtfully nodded, "So this is what it is..."
"Did you discover something?"
Sage asked.
"Yes, the arrangement method is now clear. Following the circular rainbow's color arrangement from outside to inside, perhaps a 'Rainbow Gem' can be made." Sayou nodded.
"Renedia, take note."
"I'll try it later." Renedia noted down the method.
Sage nodded to the two sisters, "So now, choose between the two options I gave you earlier."
Sayou took a deep breath, raised her head to look directly at Sage, "I choose the third option. As long as you can ensure a happy life for our village, we can work for you."
Her initial thought was to find the method, rely on the gemstone to earn for the village, and then not have to toil.
However, after witnessing Sage and Luffy's battle, she changed her mind.
Luffy was different, a good person, a friend, so he wouldn't have peculiar thoughts.
But Sage wasn't...
Yet people like Sage must exist on the sea, just like the manager Dorong trying to capture them.
Since someone already covets this method, there's no way they can guard it on their own.
Might as well choose a safer way.
At least this man hasn't forcefully taken, but is willing to communicate with them.
Although he's domineering, he indeed provides a sense of security.
"Hehehe... the third option, quite bold, I'm a pirate, accepting my protection includes inherent risk, aren't you afraid?" Sage asked.
"There's no safe place on the sea."
She insisted, "So we should make our own choice!"
Sage froze for a moment, corner of his mouth grinning, "Great! I admire courageous individuals, once you make it, when I reach the New World... I'll protect you. But this isn't a choice for now, Gin, go to the Treasure Vault and give her a hundred million Belly and a Radio Snail."
He had the plan, Lily noted it down, the material was available, Renedia knew how to make it, next was just testing.
If they could indeed make it, as long as the price is profitable, it's a stable source of revenue. Once entering the New World, Sage would have a major enterprise to manage.
He wanted the gemstone's production method precisely for his development strategy upon entering the New World!
Plan!
As for whether it could be made successfully...
Consider it an investment!
Investments, some lose, some win.
If you don't invest, how would you know which industry profits or which loses money?
If you don't participate, how will you understand what those industries are up to?
To be a landlord ruling everything, of course, you must understand everything, participate in everything once!
Practical experience brings real knowledge!
That's how he ruined his family's fortune!
