The result is fascinating: Luffy and Zoro gain a more mature aura, while Sanji and Robin appear rejuvenated. Franky, in contrast to his usual mechanical modifications, only sports a prominent scar on his cheek.

Chopper, the crew’s lovable doctor, takes on a more childlike form, while retaining his reindeer features, such as rosy cheeks and a graceful antler.

Nami and Usopp, meanwhile, feature notably different looks compared to the anime original, while Jinbe displays some similarities, although his tattoos are absent.

Brook, the skeleton musician, has part of his body made of bones, but his face retains a hint of flesh, resulting in a truly peculiar appearance.
