Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 113 Only Fools Eat Devil Fruits! (First Update, Please Subscribe!)

"The legendary treasure of the sea?"

Nami pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized.

"So it's a Devil Fruit!"

As a fervent little money-lover, Nami is extremely interested in everything related to "money".

Naturally, she wouldn't overlook the "Devil Fruit".

Unfortunately.

The East China Sea is vast, so vast that it occupies a quarter of the area of ​​this sea.

The East China Sea is also very small, so small that it's like a spoon, a "hero's key," where no "big shot" can possibly emerge.

Nami, being of low status and little influence, not only had no access to Devil Fruits, but she had never even seen the "Devil Fruit Encyclopedia".

She hadn't even heard of many people who possessed Devil Fruit abilities.

The only Devil Fruit user I remember who was active in the East Blue.

Buggy the Clown, the captain of the Buggy Pirates, has a bounty of approximately 1500 million Berries!

all the time.

Nami's relationship with Devil Fruits can only be described in eight words—

We've only heard of it, but never seen it.

Today I finally saw the true form of the Devil Fruit!

Nami stared intently at the flaming fruit in Strom's hand, and for some unknown reason, drool unconsciously trickled down her chin.

Although this fruit looks strange, it's valuable!

Extremely valuable!

It's worth at least 100 million Berries, enough to buy so many oranges...

Nami jolted awake from her reverie, raised her right hand, and quickly spoke to Storm.

"Lord White Dragon!"

"Um?"

"Um, this Devil Fruit...can I...can I have it?"

Nami originally wanted to ask Storm for the Flame-Flame Fruit.

But as the words were about to come out, she suddenly remembered their current "identities," and at the same time, she remembered Bai Long's immense power...

do not care!

Money is the most important thing!

In the end, Nami still managed to stammer out her request for a Devil Fruit.

"You want this Logia-type [Flame-Flame Fruit]?"

After a moment's consideration, Storm handed the Devil Fruit in his hand to Nami.

"Here you go, just a heads up, this stuff doesn't taste very good."

Storm now possesses the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, which has a wider range of applications and stronger personal abilities.

He doesn't have a high need for a second Logia-type Devil Fruit.

Not to mention that this is the well-known "Flame-Flame Fruit," which even dogs wouldn't eat!

Cough!

Of course, things like "[Flame-Flame Fruit], even dogs wouldn't eat it"...

This was just a joke, a joke.

Even if the Flame-Flame Fruit is a lower-level Devil Fruit than the Magma-Magma Fruit;

Even if many people don't eat the Flame-Flame Fruit, they can still unleash "fire-type abilities";

Even though many people use "fire-type abilities" that far exceed those of the true users of the "Flame-Flame Fruit";

But isn't the Flame-Flame Fruit pretty powerful too?

Ok……

At least the Flame-Flame Fruit is much stronger than the Smoke-Smoke Fruit, Swamp-Swamp Fruit, Gas-Gas Fruit, Snow-Snow Fruit, and a whole host of other "disgraceful Logia-type" fruits.

Besides, no matter what, this is a Logia-type Devil Fruit!

Well known.

Logia-type Devil Fruits can be extremely powerful or extremely weak.

However, one basic skill is generally universal—

Immune to general attacks!

Apart from the Dark-Dark Fruit.

All Logia-type Devil Fruit users gain the special ability of "natural elementalization" the moment they eat a Devil Fruit.

This ability can be released passively even without being actively used.

Based on this alone.

The lower limit of Logia-type Devil Fruits is guaranteed enough!

In Storm's opinion, Nami will probably never be associated with "strong people" in her life.

He didn't expect the little thief to suddenly become the invincible "world's number one female pirate"...

In this case.

Instead of improving Nami's own strength, it would be better to increase her ability to protect herself.

no doubt.

Logia-type Devil Fruits are the best way to enhance a person's self-defense capabilities.

Logia-type Devil Fruit users can survive as long as they don't encounter their "natural enemy" or "Haki".

Even a pig can make its way freely on the high seas by relying on its own abilities!

Storm just felt that Nami and the Flame-Flame Fruit didn't seem to be a good match...

But since it was Nami who made the request, what can you do?

As soon as Storm handed over the Flame-Flame Fruit, Nami eagerly reached out and took it.

"Ah! This is the taste of a Devil Fruit~"

Nami held the Flame-Flame Fruit in both hands, brought her nose close, and took a deep, blissful breath.

"Wow! This is the taste of money!"

"What are you dawdling about?"

Storm was somewhat speechless at the little thief's reaction, and he offered a reminder.

"Eat quickly, eat the fruit as soon as possible, and get used to it as soon as possible."

"eat?"

Nami's eyes widened instantly.

At this moment, she was no longer a little orange cat, but a mother tiger protecting her cubs.

"Why would you eat it! That's money! One Devil Fruit can sell for at least several hundred million Berries!"

Nami held up the Flame-Flame Fruit in her hand and roughly estimated its size.

"Even just one bite would cost several million Berries, right?"

"I'm not eating this! I'm going to sell it! Sell it—"

"Huh? My Devil Fruit!"

"This isn't your Devil Fruit, it's mine!"

Storm forcibly took the Flame-Flame Fruit back from Nami's hands, speaking in a harsh tone.

"I'd rather sell you than sell the Flame-Flame Fruit!"

Storm initially thought that Nami wanted the Flame-Flame Fruit so she could eat the Logia-type Devil Fruit.

In that case, he could accept it; he could treat it as training one of his own people.

But does Nami want the Flame-Flame Fruit so she can sell it?

Are you kidding me!

Nami has become obsessed with money.

Storm doesn't have that.

"No! Lord White Dragon!"

Nami let out a heart-wrenching wail.

"That's hundreds of millions of Berries!"

"How about we split the Devil Fruit 50/50? 40/60? 30/70? 19/10 is also acceptable! You get the lion's share!"

"I'll take your head!"

Storm bent his finger and tapped Nami's head hard, making a crisp "thud".

"Wake up! To eat or not to eat?"

"I won't eat it!"

Nami crouched down, covering her head, and looked at Storm with her big, teary eyes.

"But...it can really sell for a lot of money!"

"you……"

Storm was almost laughing in exasperation at this little money-grubber.

"Fine, you want a Devil Fruit just to sell it for money?"

"right!"

Upon hearing this, Nami instantly perked up.

In an instant, her headache disappeared, her legs stopped hurting, and her eyes were no longer teary.

"One Devil Fruit costs 100 million Berries. At that point, I can eat oranges and throw them away one after another!"

"..."

There are just too many flaws in Nami's words.

Storm wanted to complain, but he didn't know where to begin.

"Since you found the anthill hell..."

Storm looked at the blue-eyed white dragon beside him.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon then opened its mouth wide and spat out four new Devil Fruits.

They were all lizard fruits—

Chameleon Fruit, Dumb-tailed Poison Lizard Fruit, Komodo Dragon Fruit, Marine Iguana Fruit.

These four Devil Fruits have been in Storm's possession for some time now.

Unfortunately, he looked down on these Devil Fruits and didn't even consider using them to enhance the strength of his subordinates.

Animal type, common species, too weak.

It is a pity that it is tasteless.

This is Storm's opinion on the four "lizard fruits".

But since Nami wants it now, let's "reward" her with one.

Storm did not produce the Tyrannosaurus Rex Fruit.

This ancient variety is of fairly good quality.

Giving it to Nami to "play with" is far too extravagant...

"These four Devil Fruits are..."

Storm recounted the details of the four fruits, then looked at Nami and said...

"You can pick one out of there, but you can't eat it yourself."

If Nami were to eat the "Lizard Fruit," that would be a real waste!

It's not that the fruit has been wasted, it's that people have been wasted!

"Only fools would eat Devil Fruits!"

Nami made a typical money-grubber's statement.

"Such a valuable treasure should definitely be sold!"

"Lord White Dragon, which of these four Devil Fruits do you think is the most valuable?"

valuable……

Storm had never imagined that the appeal of Devil Fruits could be measured from this perspective.

"If I had to say... it would be the [Komodo Dragon Fruit]. It's large, with good destructive power and defensive capabilities, so it might fetch a good price at the auction."

"Then I'll take this [Komodo Dragon Fruit]!"

Nami immediately picked up one of the four Devil Fruits, held it tightly in her arms, and even hummed a little tune involuntarily.

"Pele~ Pele~ Pele~"

This money-grubbing attitude is truly something else.

Storm watched Nami's "performance" and shook his head.

This is truly a childhood trauma...

Some people need a lifetime to heal from their childhood trauma.

Nami will probably never escape the clutches of "money" in her lifetime...

Storm put away the other three "Lizard Fruits", along with the "Flame-Flame Fruit".

At this moment, Nami was still immersed in the joy of obtaining the Devil Fruit.

That's enough.

Storm patted Nami's forehead, both amused and exasperated, and then casually picked up the [Komodo Giant Lizard Fruit].

"I'll save this fruit for you and give it to you when you need it."

"Now, it's time to leave this anthill hell!"

As Nami looked at the Komodo Dragon Fruit that Storm had taken away, she felt like she had heard his words somewhere before.

However, she really didn't have a place to put the [Komodo Dragon Fruit].

If it gets bumped or knocked over by accident, the priceless Devil Fruit might be ruined...

Nami couldn't bear that kind of blow.

"Lord White Dragon, you must take good care of this fruit!"

"Um."

"Lord White Dragon, when the time comes, I'll take this fruit and sell it. We'll split the money between us... 19/10, I'll get 90% and you get 10%."

"Um?"

"Waaah... fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty is alright, isn't it?"

"No, please be quiet for a while."

Storm pinned down the feigning-crying little thief and looked up toward the northwest of the anthill hell.

Even without using Observation Haki to perceive.

Storm saw a small black dot flying upwards in an illogical manner.

[Observation Haki] activated.

Storm "saw" more carefully.

That "little black dot" is actually an island!

An island that is "floating" upwards!

"It seems like we've unexpectedly run into some very important person!"
