An incredibly overpowered ability!
Returning to the surface after swimming for a long time, testing his limits.
'At this moment, I might be equal to, or even better than, a Fishman.'
Although it doesn't mention that Aquaman can command sea creatures, he could influence them.
His level of influence depended heavily on his charisma.
Controlling water with Aquaman's powers is out of the question. Apparently, one would need Neptune's Trident (or Poseidon's Trident) to do that.
'That's a shame.'
In this world, controlling the sea would be an incredible advantage. If he could, he'd have a massive edge against Devil Fruit users.
'I could maybe get hydrokinesis from the gacha…' Caleb thought randomly while walking around the island.
Not wanting to dwell on it, he picked up some small pebbles from the ground.
Wanting to test something, he stood 2 meters from a tree.
When he used 'teleport,' the pebble that was in his hand appeared in the tree trunk.
He approached and tried to remove it, but it wasn't a simple item teleportation.
With teleportation, the matter being moved replaces the matter at the destination.
Because of this, the pebble that was once in his hand was now firmly lodged in the tree as if it belonged there.
Moreover, since he's replacing an object with the matter at the destination, even if he uses a fragile item, it could still cut through something as tough as steel.
'I might end up becoming the nightmare of swordsmen,' he thought.
Of course, there was an even worse scenario… Namely, making something appear directly inside someone's body.
Be it a simple pebble or even a sword.
Of course, it's not that simple. Teleportation requires extremely precise calculations. Sending an object into a human body (which is in constant motion, even if subtle, due to breathing, heartbeats, etc.) is no easy task.
Even if he uses Sage and his left eye, it's hard to say what his chances of success would be without trying.
Not to mention, for him to rely on this ability to defeat someone, that person could likely use Haki, and if they're a Logia user, only something like seastone would have any effect.
'That doesn't make this ability any less amazing,' Caleb thought.
Especially when he reaches 100% assimilation with Shirai Kuroko, being able to teleport himself will be a huge advantage.
After a few more tests, he brought down a tree just by teleporting small pebbles into it.
He basically teleported a pebble into the tree, then touched where the pebble was, removed it, sent it elsewhere, and then 'cut' again with pebbles in the open areas, deepening the 'cut.'
'Tedious to keep doing, but the test was worth it,' Caleb thought, storing the tree.
Since he felled this tree, he'd use it, even if just for firewood.

There's a clear reason why Little Garden is a tough island to survive on.
With various prehistoric animals roaming around, each with colossal sizes and strength to destroy houses with their massive bodies, able to cut steel with their teeth, not to mention two giants in constant conflict, the risk of being caught in their shockwaves is enough to kill ordinary people.
Even so, Harribel walked with Saeko as if it were a casual stroll.
When an animal appeared, Harribel only needed to manifest a bit of her Haki, and that was enough to make many of them instinctively feel she was a predator they shouldn't dare provoke.
Conqueror's Haki was similar to spiritual pressure in some ways. Just releasing Conqueror's Haki was enough to instill fear in weaker animals, even stronger ones.
"ROARR!"
A Tyrannosaurus rex, on the other hand, wasn't as intimidated by Harribel and even dared to lunge at her with its massive head.
With half her face hidden, Harribel's eyes seemed to issue a warning, accompanied by a pressure directed straight at the T. rex, which, though it slowed down, only shook its large head, ignoring her warning.
At this point, Harribel stopped being passive. She drew her sword, and a jet of water shot from the blade, slicing through the T. rex's massive head.
'That should do it.'
After the two parts fell to the ground, she simply dragged the body, leaving the head behind.

"Nami, you're my Nakama!!" Luffy shouted.
"No, I'm not part of your crew," Nami replied bluntly.
"Come on, Nami, I like you, and I want you to be my navigator, be my NAKAMA!!!"
…
Moments earlier…
After arriving in Paradise, the first thing they did was learn about Laboon's story.
And, just like in the canonical event, Luffy had a brief confrontation with Laboon and made a promise to the whale. Additionally, Miss Wednesday, who was actually Princess Vivi in disguise, boarded his ship with Mr. 9, and they gave them a ride to Cactus Island.
Upon arriving at Cactus Island, they were welcomed as heroes. Luffy woke up to Zoro and Kuina attacking the people of Cactus Island, who were actually bounty hunters. In the end, he tried to fight them, but Kuina literally kicked his butt.
In the end, they uncovered the whole truth, but unlike the canonical event, Nami still tried to find Baroque Works' treasures but didn't learn about Vivi's story as in the original. Only when a portrait of Luffy, Kuina, and Zoro was made, and Vivi revealed to the three about Crocodile, did she want to leave alone.
…
Back to the present moment, Nami said to Luffy: "I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I only agreed to go with you because I'm looking for someone!"
"Who exactly are you looking for, anyway?" Luffy asked.
When they heard Luffy's question, Kuina and Zoro also seemed interested.
"Caleb Saga," Nami revealed.

"The food is ready~" Alice sang, serving dishes made from T. rex meat.
If there's anything common and universal, it's eating.
Eating is something that, no matter what world they come from, is almost impossible not to enjoy.
Especially in a world like One Piece, with Alice cooking the food.
Just the smell was stimulating enough to make them start drooling.
On the table were plates of cooked crab, nutritious porridge, fried dinosaur drumsticks, crispy roasted wings, large shrimp, crucian carp, and soup…
All the dishes looked fancy and appetizing.
"Thanks for the food!"
Without hesitation, they began to eat.

In the blink of an eye, another 100 GP could be purchased.
Although he no longer had Arlong's bounty, he had accumulated a lot of money hunting pirates over the years.
[+100 GP!]
With that, he spent 10 million Belly at once.
He was alone in his room. Since it had been a whole month since his last roll, he tested the waters with 10 random pulls first.
