Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World.

Chapter 160 Akainu: How about killing the game merchant?

He paused, then said excitedly, "Didn't you all notice? That rifle, like a Devil Fruit, can enhance the user's body?"

These words were spoken.

The entire conference hall was stunned by the numerous lieutenant generals, including the two admirals and Akainu.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Sengoku frowned. "A gun that can enhance the user's body, are you Noland of the West Sea?"

"It's true!"

"Didn't everyone notice? Bucky's stamina was completely depleted just now, and he shouldn't have been able to reload armor-piercing rounds. But after getting that rifle, not only did his stamina recover, but the armor-piercing rounds also became more powerful."

Everyone frowned.

Indeed, there is intelligence from the East China Sea that, to be precise, these skills require energy to unleash, a special kind of energy converted from mental attributes.

Bucky's appearance just now definitely indicated that he had exhausted his energy.

"Report!"

"Marshal, we have discovered a contractor pirate."

Just then, a naval officer came to report.

This pirate was a nobody on the Grand Line who accidentally found a uniquely shaped Devil Fruit and became its contractor.

Although most of the contractors are in the East China Sea, over the past few days, some contract fruits have drifted across the ocean with the currents and flowed into other sea areas. However, the number is very small, and since they are floating on the vast ocean, the probability of them being picked up is not zero, but extremely small.

Unexpectedly, this lowly pirate had good luck.

However, it is estimated that finding the Contract Fruit exhausted his luck, which led to him being quickly discovered by the Navy and taken to the Navy Headquarters.

"Bring him here!"

After hearing the explanation, Zhan Guo's eyes lit up, and he quickly gave the order.

He was puzzled. He had just ordered the Navy to search for Contract Fruits in the East Blue, and now there was news. Even Kizaru's Devil Fruit ability didn't work this fast. It turned out that they were lucky enough to find a Contractor in the Grand Line.

It seems that even God is protecting the navy.

Soon, a fierce-looking, burly man, whose body was bound by chains, was brought into the meeting room.

He had been glaring fiercely at the navy officers holding him, but once he entered the conference room, he began to tremble with fear.

Even if you haven't seen it with your own eyes, the islands of the four seas and the Grand Line all have information on the high-ranking naval officers, which is used to deter pirates.

The Buddha of Sengoku, Akainu, Kizaru, Aokiji, and Admiral Candidate Momousagi

He was just a nobody pirate who had just entered the Grand Line, with a bounty of only 40 million. Even a vice admiral at the bottom of the ranks could kill him with a single punch.

Upon suddenly seeing these top-tier naval forces, his legs went weak with fear, and he felt as if he had entered hell.

Could it be that among the civilians I killed, a Celestial Dragon has infiltrated this group?

"Are you a contractor?"

Warring States raised his head and revealed a kind smile.

puff.

The pirate immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly and pleading, "Spare me! I was forced into becoming a pirate by the nobles of the allied nations, please don't kill me!"

He didn't even have the will to resist; the difference in strength was simply too great.

Only a few hotheads like Morgan dared to wield an axe against Garp.

Sengoku frowned, stroked his goatee, and said, "Answer my question."

"Yes, I found a Contract Fruit. After completing the contract mission to capture a Sea King, I got a new skill. After completing more missions, I got a weapon."

The pirates confessed everything honestly, like spilling beans from a bamboo tube, hoping for leniency.

As he spoke, he tossed the weapon out of his backpack.

It's a beginner's crossbow.

Seeing Sengoku pick up the crossbow with an interested look, the pirate quickly explained, "This is a weapon from the Samsara Game. It can enhance my eyesight, albeit slightly, but it will make me shoot more accurately."

"To improve eyesight?"

There is no special feeling in the Warring States period; non-players cannot use the equipment in the Reincarnation Game.

Upon hearing this, he looked at the lieutenant general, who was an expert in firearms, and asked about the weapon that could enhance the human body.

He asked, "Is it because the crossbow's design improves accuracy that your aim has become better?"

This is the most reasonable explanation.

The stronger the knife, the harder its material and the sharper its blade, the more powerful the slashes it can deliver.

The thicker the armor and the better the materials used, the stronger the attack it can withstand.

The same principle applies to firearms. The design can improve accuracy, and changes to gunpowder and bullets can increase kinetic energy and fire more powerful bullets.

"No."

The pirate glanced cautiously at Sengoku and said, "It's just my eyesight and vision. After I hold this crossbow, my dynamic abilities will suddenly become stronger, and I will be able to see objects at a greater distance."

It sounds absurd, but it really is.

at the same time,

The lieutenant generals also noticed something amiss in the video Den Den Mushi: in addition to Buggy, more and more players were starting to drop equipment.

There are shields that enhance strength, blades that strengthen sword energy, and armor that increases stamina.

"How is that possible!"

The Warring States period was marked by furrowed brows, and it took him a long time to process this bizarre information.

How did they manage to do that? Was it another Devil Fruit ability?

This is beyond the scope of normal understanding.

Weapon Fruit?

No, the Donquixote Family of the Seven Warlords of the Sea has Weapon-Weapon Fruit users who simply transform themselves into various weapons, and it's impossible for them to have any of those strange effects.

Users of the Blacksmith Fruit can create all sorts of amazing weapons.

But how do you explain the pitch-black tower, the projection, and all sorts of skills? Could it be that the game merchant ate several Devil Fruits?

Most importantly, although Devil Fruits have various special abilities, the fruit will regenerate after the user dies.

Over the centuries, countless Devil Fruit abilities have appeared and have been recorded in the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia. In particular, the Marine Headquarters, backed by the World Government, has a very complete Devil Fruit Encyclopedia.

There are no records of any so-called "skill fruit" or "blacksmith fruit".

The abilities displayed by this game merchant seem to belong to a completely different world than One Piece. Could he be an alien?

Sengoku took a deep breath and asked, "Would you like to join the navy?"

"Yes, I do!"

The pirate nodded in agreement without hesitation.

He was quick-witted and understood that under normal circumstances, a pirate like himself, who had committed numerous evil deeds, would only be imprisoned in the underwater prison.

Being able to face the Fleet Admiral directly and be asked if he wanted to join the Navy must be related to the Contract Fruit, so he quickly told the Fleet Admiral everything he knew.

"very good."

After hearing all the news, Sengoku appointed him to the position of sergeant and then let him leave.

An eerie silence filled the air.

Akainu broke the deadlock first, saying in a stiff tone, "Although these abilities are diverse and there are weapons and equipment that can enhance the body, they are all very weak. Any pirate with a bounty of over 100 million could easily sweep them away."

"It's conceivable that the game merchant's strength is probably not very strong."

"Moreover, it is very likely that he is a special Devil Fruit user who has never appeared before. He can become stronger by giving these strange items and skills to others. We can no longer sit idly by and wait for our doom."

"Kill him before he becomes uncontrollable!"
