The Most Wasteful Fruit Among Pirates

Dressrosa,

"Be careful, hang up the bunting..."

"Balloons over there, put a little more—"

The whole city was plunged into a sea of ​​celebration. The men set up ladders and hung strips of colorful flags across the streets. The women placed flowers, hung balloons... and gave the extra balloons to eager children next to them.

The annual "Harvest Festival" is about to begin. This year, the weather in the whole country is rare, and not even a single pirate can be seen: this is a matter of course. Anyone who dares to approach this sea area will be sent to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish .

Meanwhile, another big thing is about to happen:

"They are all protected by the Don Quixote royal family~~"

"Yes, yes, Minister Riku is also very kind..."

What ordinary people want is a stable life, without life and death, without bloodshed; although it may be a bit boring, this is what most people want.

As for those who dare to pursue their dreams and embark on the path of killing:

"I'm coming!

"

Near the edge of the city, someone ran over and shouted.

"The cadres of the royal family scattered on other islands have arrived at the pier, and Master Rossindi is personally leading the team!"

? !

"Hurry up, let's go to the pier~~"

The crowd who were preparing for the celebration immediately rushed to the pier, asking the girl in the alley next to her to close one eye.

"It seems that people are used to the rule of the Don Quixote family,"

"Feel sorry,"

Next to the girl, Cyrus, who was like a statue, answered dryly.

"Why are you apologizing? It's not your fault. And—"

The girl turned around mischievously, and stretched out her hand to the tall man behind her.

"My lord Cyrus, can I invite you to go to the pier with me to interview the "cadres of the Don Quixote family"?"

"It is my pleasure, Miss Don... Scarlett."

Young men and women walked out of the alley hand in hand, mixed with the crowd towards the pier.

Along the way, people who saw them wanted to say hello, but when they saw the hands holding each other, they all turned their heads with smiles, and pulled away those brats who wanted to disturb them.

——

"Rosindy~?"

"Lord Rossindi! Look at me~~"

"Master Rocindi, I want to have a monkey with you—"

On the pier, Rosie, who had just disembarked, immediately received a warm welcome. A large number of beauties cheered, blew kisses, and even scattered flower petals and handkerchiefs like rain, making the face of the leader Rosie a little stiff.

"Ahem, let's go."

Rossi took the lead, followed by the talented Gilder Taizolo, the tall murloc boatbuilder Mr. Tom, and Fram, who was only wearing a pair of swimming trunks and beach clothes.

Then there are the middle-level cadres of each island: tall, short, fat and thin, with knives and guns on their backs, all of them are full of muscles, and everyone exudes the aura of a "strong man", which makes the residents of Dressrosa feel happy.

The stronger the Don Quixote family, the more stable their lives will be.

"Come on!

"

"Let everyone see your heroic appearance!"

The sounds of thousands of people whirled and mingled into a loud torrent, shaking endlessly at the pier in Dressrosa. It even spread far above the sea and among the mountains, causing a long-lasting rolling echo.

With such enthusiastic cheers, even these 'experts' were more or less infected by the atmosphere, and became flushed.

"Dreis Rosa is known as a country of 'love and passion', and it lives up to its name."

Among the team, there was a long blond haired, indistinguishably handsome 'beautiful girl' Pete with a gentle smile full of sunshine on his face. While waving to the cheering crowd, he chatted casually with his colleagues next to him.

"But the excessive persistence of love has also created strong jealousy among women. As long as they are betrayed by men, they will commit terrorist acts to assassinate each other."

Beside the 'beautiful girl' Pete was four meters tall, with dark skin wrapped around steel-like muscles. A black and white beard, and a left hand that lost its index and middle fingers.

'Eight Fingers' Oba,

Both of them used to be cadres of the "White Dragon Pirates", and later joined the Don Quixote family together. Because of their previous experience, their relationship is better than others.

Of course, it's only a little better.

"Hehe, the betrayal of a woman..."

Hearing Auba's serious answer, the neutral "beautiful girl" Pete with long blond hair twitched the corners of his mouth and looked up at the sky.

"Do you care?"

···

"Don't talk about this, I heard that the reward for this competition is 'Devil Fruit'."

"It is indeed a very attractive reward,"

'Eight Fingers' Oba nodded, even for a cadre like them, it is not easy to own a Devil Fruit. So both of them are determined to win, and even the other is the biggest obstacle!

As former supernova cadres, the strength of the two of them is absolutely top-notch: just mastering the primary domineering is not an advantage that other people can match.

"The reward is mine."

"Oh, reward..."

Unlike Auba with a serious face, there was a trace of sarcasm on the corner of the 'beautiful girl''s mouth.

It seems that even Oba is content with the status quo, yes, after all, they are just 'ordinary' strong people. As long as there are people who can be attached to, it is no different from these cheering civilians.

"Let's go, the show is about to begin."

——

"It's a nice country,"

Standing on the top of the tallest building on the pier, the sea breeze blows the man's wide blood-red cloak, making him look like a legendary vampire.

But Baloric Redfield is a real non-capable person. With an umbrella in his hand as a weapon, he can keep pace with Whitebeard, Roger, and Golden Lion!

Added pets...or companions: Tanuki Padong, the strength of one person is enough to match a legendary pirate group!

However, this man nicknamed "Red Earl" has a very idle personality, neither has the slightest interest in the throne of "One Piece", nor does he want to establish his own power.

All because of his powerful source:

Naturally knowledgeable and domineering!

Aisha, a little girl in Sky Island in the future, can cover the width of an island, miss. Golden Week in the future (the partner of the third brother Candle) can control the strong control of the mind, and the princess of Fishman Island can change the appeal of others.

Leiderfield's knowledgeable arrogance focuses on mental perception.

Intuitively speaking, the Red Earl is born with the ability to passively hear the inner voices of others.

Later, he even developed the ability to read other people's memories through contact. It's like training the color of knowledge to the point where it is comparable to the "memory fruit"!

"Well, hearing such a 'bright' voice made me feel a little better."

The 'hope', 'longing', and 'excitement' in the hearts of the people below... made Laidfield, who was standing at the highest point, narrow his eyes slightly.

Red Earl's knowledgeable domineering has a shortcoming that is not a "shortcoming": that is, he can passively hear other people's voices, and human beings... who hasn't a little dirty mind?

So often what he hears is:

"I want to sleep with the woman next door..."

"I want to get rich and trample everyone underfoot..."

"The guy who robbed me of business, it's better that his whole family be killed by pirates..."

"Hmph, mere untouchables, they're nothing but animals. I can kill them with just a watch..."

For the Red Earl, hearing these noises every day, and not turning black into the world-destroying demon king, is considered a firm mind. So he hates a bunch of people gathering together, unless he can resist his knowledge.

"Roger is gone, and there is one less friend left."

When the Red Earl was feeling emotional, the civet cat on his shoulder comforted him earnestly.

"Pull~~Boss, I will always be with you."

"Hehe, Paton."

Lovingly touching the top hat's head, the Red Earl's eyes were full of tenderness.

Only this civet cat 'Padong' who used to be a 'pen' and later ate the 'dog dog fruit · phantom beast species · civet cat form' because of Vegapunk's technology can accompany the red earl.

Because Padong has a simple mind, and his appearance is the same.

Lonely,

This is the price of power.

"Oh? I heard some noise."

The Red Earl's eyes fell on the man with long blond hair in the line below, and the corners of his evil mouth slightly raised.

"boring,"

None of this has anything to do with him, he's here to—

His gaze shifted to the front of the team, Rossi in a black feather coat.

"Devil fruit, it's really unbelievable."

It seemed that what he was after was in this boy.

Um?

In the team below, Rossi tilted his head to look at the top of the tallest building on the pier next to him.

Nothing at all···

illusion?

No, the knowledgeable domineering has been trained to the point of 'predicting the future', how could there be such a low-level reaction as 'illusion'.

There was indeed something there just now!

——

King's Heights,

"Yes, you all work hard for the family."

Dover, who was sitting on the throne, put down the report in his hands, and below him were a group of middle-level cadres half kneeling on the ground. No matter what identities and experiences they once had, they are all members of the Don Quixote family now.

"I think you've all heard that,"

As Dover snapped his fingers, Torrebol next to him took out a glass treasure chest.

? !

When they saw what was inside, the people below became uneasy for a moment.

Devil Fruit!

And this number... a total of six pieces!

No way, this is too generous. Just collecting so many devil fruits is already incredible, it seems that they are all given out as rewards...

In an instant, everyone's eyes were filled with excitement!

Originally, I thought there would be one for everyone to compete for, but since there are six... many people who think they are not weak can't help showing joy on their faces.

"Fufufu, this is the family's reward for the loyal."

"But I want to remind you first, these are not 'devil fruits'."

? ?

"It's an 'artificial devil fruit'!"

···

After the shocked middle-level cadres left, Dover turned to ask Torrepol next to him.

"Where's the Rossi?"

"Eh...he said he was a little restless, so he was patrolling around the palace."

"What's the meaning?"

Even Dover frowned suspiciously,

"With the strength of our family, who can infiltrate? Admiral, legendary pirate... Impossible!"

——

When Dover took a sip of tainted milk, Rossi had already visited the top of the palace.

"Strange, is it really my nervousness?"

Standing on the roof of the palace, looking at the entire Dressrosa, Rosie was puzzled.

Impossible, no matter what, he was also killed from the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood (physics). Even the millions of corpse puppets of Accardo the Impaler didn't make Rossi frown, how could there be hallucinations like this—? !

in a split second,

Rosie 'saw' a hand fall on his head from behind!

!

stop---

"Hey, lost?"

Appearing on the other side of the castle in an instant, Rossi's vest broke out in a cold sweat, with the three-generation ghost in his hand in front of him, and Tong Kong locked the position where he was standing before shrinking violently.

"The Red Earl???"

A red cloak like bat wings, a blue rose on his chest, a wicked smile, a gold chain hanging from the corner of his mouth, a slender umbrella in his hand, and a real tanuki on his shoulders that is very similar to Chopper—

"Baloric Ledfield..."

This name, in the sea, is a real 'dream devil'.

I wish you to go out to sea and meet the Red Earl, who is the most vicious curse common to all three parties, including navy, pirates and merchants.

Two years ago, an unlucky "Qiwuhai" met him, and then...

There's no after that.

"What are you doing here?"

Don't blame Rossi for overreacting, it's because the Red Earl is too tough!

You must know that this guy was able to overturn the current Admiral of the Navy' Kong' by himself, and then had a fight with Garp who rushed over, before he was imprisoned in the city of advancement because of lack of physical strength.

With this record, Roger and Whitebeard would be ashamed...

Don't ask why Whitebeard is the 'strongest man', because the whole sea agrees to expel Earl Red from 'humanity'!

Just by looking at you, you can understand what you think in your heart; by touching you, you can read all the memories of your life... Is this still a human being?

"Take it easy, brat."

The Red Earl, who lost his memory, smiled evilly,

"I came here for the ability of a devil fruit."
