Pirates: Going out to sea? Cultivate to the Mahayana stage first

Wait, that’s not right. When I think about it carefully, it seems that this matter has a lot to do with the express shrimp.

Back then, the Express Shrimp bravely broke into the heavily guarded lair of the Lord of the Sky and successfully seized countless precious treasures.

Then, it was so generous that it picked up some treasures and threw them to Nami.

Who could have expected that among these seemingly ordinary treasures, there was actually a devil fruit hidden.

If this matter were to be made public, I'm afraid no one would choose to believe it.

An Nuo's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly, thinking to himself:

"For a moment, I couldn't even tell who had better luck."

He slowly and carefully took the devil fruit that looked like a shining star from Nami, who was also in a state of shock and a little dazed.

He first held it up to his eyes, looked at it carefully, then put it close to his nose and sniffed it gently.

It turns out that this devil fruit does not emit any special smell.

In fact, devil fruits have always been so strange. When you smell them from the outside, you can neither feel the slightest fragrance nor detect any peculiar smell.

But once it is eaten, the consequences are really disastrous, it's almost fatal!

To be honest, this is very misleading.

Looking at this devil fruit, An Nuo couldn't help but recall the feeling when he ate the Dream-Dream Fruit.

He remembered that at that time he chewed the entire Mengmeng fruit bit by bit and ate it whole.

As slaves at that time, there was no other way and we were afraid of being discovered.

To be honest, I'm really a ruthless person.

Shaking off the messy thoughts in his mind, Anno handed the star-like fruit to Hina.

"Hina, when you were at the Navy Headquarters, did you ever have the chance to look through the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia?"

I wonder if with Hina's knowledge, she can recognize what type of devil fruit this mysterious devil fruit is?

You know, the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia contains most of the information about Devil Fruits in the pirate world!

Generally speaking, as long as you look at the appearance of a devil fruit, you can basically tell roughly what category it belongs to.

Although the outside world has made this devil fruit encyclopedia sound magical, as if owning it is equivalent to mastering the most rare treasure in the world.

But don't forget that it's the Navy Headquarters! How could such an important and powerful organization lack such crucial information?

With Hinata's skills, as a captain of the Marine Headquarters and one of the most outstanding talents among them, he is highly valued and carefully cultivated by the Marine Headquarters.

Maybe in Marinford's cozy boudoir, there is even a devil fruit encyclopedia placed on the exquisite bedside as a daily children's reading material.

At this moment, Hina was staring at the devil fruit in front of her that was emitting a strange light. She frowned slightly, and her big, lively eyes kept blinking, as if she was trying hard to search for the memory of this fruit deep in her mind.

After thinking in silence for a long time, she finally stretched out her hand slowly, fiddled with her slender fingers and said: "Well... I was fortunate enough to browse through that illustrated book..."

However, I have to say that the illustrations in it are not clear enough.

Therefore, regarding this devil fruit, she could only vaguely remember that there seemed to be a few pictures of fruits that looked similar to it.

But it is really difficult to determine which one it is at the moment.

"How many such mysterious and powerful devil fruits are there?"

Hinata couldn't help but be slightly stunned, a thoughtful look on her face.

After a while, he slowly said: "Indeed, there are so many types of devil fruits that it is dizzying. It is not easy to accurately distinguish them in a short time."

However, looking at the appearance of this devil fruit, it is quite similar to several of them."

Hinata, who was standing nearby, nodded slightly, and then as if remembering something, she slowly introduced: "First, there is a kind of parahuman devil fruit, which also appears to be as black as ink and twinkling with starlight. Its unique ability is 'weaving', and the owner can weave the surrounding matter into various weapons at will."

"It's just like the devil fruit I have, except that my ability is more focused on defense, while this weaving fruit is more diverse in terms of attack methods. It is undoubtedly a very practical and powerful devil fruit ability."

At this point, Hina paused for a moment, then continued, "In addition, there is an animal-type Crocodile Fruit. As the name suggests, after eating it, you can gain the ability to transform into a crocodile."

The crocodile's strong and powerful body and sharp teeth give this devil fruit considerable attack and defense power, and it is definitely a force that cannot be underestimated in battle.

"Of course, there is a similar variety among the natural devil fruits - the Star Fruit. According to rumors, this is a legendary devil fruit!

It is said that the magical power it contains is the ability to summon the dazzling power of stars.

Just imagine how spectacular the scene would be when all the stars in the sky gather in the palm of your hand and release earth-shattering energy as your mind desires!

"The Crocodile-Crocodile Fruit, the Weaving Fruit, the Star Fruit... It sounds like each of them has impressive performances, and the upper limits of these abilities seem to be quite high!"

Anno muttered excitedly as he listened carefully to Hinata's story.

At this moment, his eyes, which had originally seemed a little dim, suddenly became extremely bright.

If they could really get their beloved companion to take this devil fruit and successfully acquire its power, then they would surely be able to quickly improve their own strength and thus better protect themselves.

Thinking of this, Annuo couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation and joy in his heart.

So, who should this devil fruit be given to?

The first person that came to Anno's mind was Nami or Madam Makino.

The reason is simple. It is because the magical thing called devil fruit, once swallowed by ordinary people, can instantly possess abilities beyond ordinary people, thus joining the ranks of superior people.

Although, the peerless masters like Garp and Roger who stand at the top of the world disdain the devil fruit

Because once you eat the devil fruit, you will lose the ability to move freely in the water like a landlubber, which undoubtedly becomes a major weakness of yourself.

Nami and Makino are not people who are keen on pursuing powerful strength.

But if they could be allowed to swallow the devil fruit, their power would certainly be greatly enhanced in a short period of time.

At that time, combined with the various magical spells and mysterious talismans mastered by the immortal cultivators, perhaps unexpected and wonderful reactions will occur.

As for the current strength of Nami and Makino, it is roughly equivalent to the colonel-level officers of the Marine Headquarters.

However, it must be admitted that they are not good at fighting.

In contrast, Nojigo and Kerla have put a lot of effort into this aspect. Not only can they use the two-color domineering skillfully, but they also have at least the combat effectiveness of a major admiral of the Marine Headquarters.

As for Hina, she is the most diligent and hardworking among them, and is now able to compete with Lieutenant General Gion, the candidate for general.

As for the Weaving Fruit and the Star Fruit, there is naturally no need to say much. After all, women have always had a natural advantage in such delicate work. Maybe they can use the abilities of these two devil fruits to play all kinds of unexpected new tricks.

But what exactly is this crocodile-crocodile fruit?

The thought of Nami accidentally swallowing it and suddenly finding herself turned into a huge crocodile with a hideous face and bared fangs and claws, oh my god, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Annuo felt a chill just thinking about it. He even had nightmares at night about Nami waving her thick and powerful tail and flames spewing from her mouth. The scene was so terrifying!

As if seeing through Anno's deep-seated worries and hesitation, Nami pursed her lips and smiled, feeling a little secretly happy in her heart.

She walked lightly to An Nuo's side, with a smile as bright as a spring flower on her face. Her sweet appearance made people feel pity for her.

Especially when she shows the cute and charming dimples on her cheeks, she looks as charming as an angel descending to earth.

She gently hugged An Nuo's arm like a docile kitten and said in a soft voice: "Don't worry, brother-in-law, leave these devil fruits to others, I don't want them."

Hearing this, An Nuo couldn't help but raise his hands to cover his face, thinking to himself:

"You keep saying no, but you're probably just afraid of turning into a crocodile!"

But then again, the power of this crocodile fruit should not be underestimated!

Even if you just sell it on the black market, you can probably get a considerable price.

Because for those discerning and knowledgeable buyers, such a powerful devil fruit is definitely worth their pursuit.

Look at the other two fruits - the weaving fruit and the star fruit, they are both rare and top-grade products!

The mysterious power contained in it may be comparable to the legendary ancient species!

Chapter 188 Gion

Sure enough, after thinking it over, I decided not to take the risk.

You have to know that the devil fruit is such a magical existence that except for the weird and unique Blackbeard, other people can only enjoy one in their lifetime.

If you are unlucky enough to eat a Devil Fruit of inferior quality, even if you as a user have outstanding potential for development and have studied it in great detail and in a variety of ways, in the end you will probably still find it difficult to compete with those who are extremely lucky and have swallowed a powerful Devil Fruit in one gulp.

It is for these reasons that Devil Fruits are divided into so-called superior and inferior categories.

Thinking of this, Annuo couldn't help but think of the String-String Fruit possessed by Doflamingo.

It has to be admitted that Doflamingo's exploration of the ability of this fruit has reached its peak.

Look, he has developed such wonderful methods as stand making, puppet manipulation, wound suturing, and even the symbol of a strong man like fruit awakening.

Moreover, Doflamingo not only possesses the three colors of Haki, but his physical skills are also not to be underestimated.

However, what is really sad is that just hearing the name of Kaido would frighten Doflamingo so much that cold sweat would drip down his forehead.

This shows that the seemingly powerful String Fruit did not actually give him much confidence and courage.

In the end, such a powerful character was defeated by Luffy, the king whose devil fruit ability did not seem outstanding but was actually of the ancient species.

After all, the mutual restraint between Devil Fruits is too serious.

Anno clearly remembered that in his previous life, many anime fans often heatedly discussed this point of view.

"There are no useless Devil Fruit abilities, only useless Devil Fruit users."

However, he himself did not agree much with this statement.

In fact, among the characters appearing in the world of pirates, there are indeed quite a number of Devil Fruit users who appear to be relatively weak.

For example, Foxy, the silver fox who ate the Slowness Fruit, and Caribou, who possessed the Swamp Fruit.

However, when it comes to Devil Fruits that can truly be described as "useless", there are many of them.

Not long ago, they encountered the female cadre of Baroque Works.

What they eat is the kilogram fruit, and they can adjust their weight between one kilogram and ten thousand kilograms at will.

But the problem is that this so-called 10,000 kilograms of weight does not play any substantial role.

The result was obvious. She was easily defeated by Nami and others, and even Anno himself didn't have to take action personally.

Therefore, deep in his heart, Annuo always believed in this truth.

A person's talent and unremitting efforts can certainly determine the minimum level he can achieve.
