Chapter 308 The Dark-Dark Fruit Appears
Chapter 308 The Dark-Dark Fruit Appears
One of the cooks from the Fourth Division discovered the strange fruit while washing and cutting it.
He seemed to have thought of something, his eyes suddenly lit up, he picked up the dark purple fruit and hurriedly ran to find Captain Sachi.
"Captain, is this a Devil Fruit?"
The chef excitedly boasted to Captain Sachi about his achievement.
After all, Sachi had repeatedly instructed that the first Devil Fruit they found should be given to the Fifth Emperor, Luo Ji, as payment for healing his father.
As the most loyal member of the Whitebeard Pirates, the cook never considered keeping the Devil Fruit for himself.
"They really found a Devil Fruit??"
Sachi took the dark purple Devil Fruit, his eyes filled with disbelief.
This was indeed predicted by Luo Ji.
Moreover, it coincides with the imminent arrival of Luo Ji.
Could it be that Luo Ji came to see them not only to invite the Whitebeard Pirates to the Pirate Expo, but also for this Devil Fruit?
"Captain, what kind of Devil Fruit is this? Is it a very powerful ability?"
Besides this chef, several other chefs in the Fourth Division were also filled with curiosity.
This is a treasure from the ocean that can change a person's destiny.
If you acquire a powerful ability, you can achieve a leap in social class in no time.
"Hmm... I don't think I've seen this shape in the Devil Fruit encyclopedia on the ship."
"This should be a Devil Fruit with unknown abilities."
Sachi examined it carefully several times, but still couldn't recognize the dark purple Devil Fruit.
However, since he had already promised Luo Ji, he was too lazy to investigate the specific abilities of this Devil Fruit.
"This Devil Fruit will definitely allow the captain to gain the deep friendship of the Five Emperors, Luo Ji."
"Then our Fourth Division will be even more unruly in the New World."
"Idiot, we can find more rare ingredients through the Luo Ji World Group and make even more delicious food."
"Maybe ALL BLUE is on the final island. I really want to go to ALL BLUE, where all the ingredients in the world are available!"
"If we become allies with the Luo Ji World Crew, whether it's Old Man or Lord Luo Ji who becomes the Pirate King, we might be able to reach the final island."
···
The chefs in the chef squad all had eager eyes.
In their eyes, finding ALL BLUE is far more important than a Devil Fruit.
The person with the best chance of finding Laugh Tale right now is definitely Luo Ji, and the second is their strongest father.
"I wonder if Luo Ji could have predicted that we would find the Devil Fruit today."
We need to give him a surprise!
Sachi smiled and put the Devil Fruit into a luxurious treasure chest, intending to personally deliver it to Luo Ji when the Luo Ji World Group arrived.
During a previous Den Den Mushi call, Luo Ji had specifically asked about it, but at that time they hadn't actually found the Devil Fruit yet.
It seems that Luo Ji's prediction was not 100% certain.
At this moment, on the spacious deck of the Moby Dick, hundreds of pirates were happily eating, drinking, playing, singing, and dancing.
Blackbeard Teach sat somewhat dejectedly in the corner.
He never imagined that there was a permanent pointer to Raphdru in this world.
What was the point of his efforts to collect intelligence on historical texts about the Red Army?
Teach also inadvertently learned about the Three-Eyed Tribe's deciphering of the Poneglyphs.
Aside from searching for the Dark-Dark Fruit and plotting to acquire his father's Tremor-Tremor Fruit ability, he's been making all sorts of preparations to become the Pirate King.
He made many plans and preparations, including assessing strength and capabilities, building a powerful crew, and gathering information from landmarks.
But the Dark-Dark Fruit has yet to appear.
Without this prerequisite, all his preparations are castles in the air.
'how so!'
'Where is the Dark-Dark Fruit?! Why hasn't it appeared yet?!'
'I haven't even become a powerful figure yet, how did the permanent pointer to Laugh Tale appear at this time!'
Teach was filled with resentment, probably thinking that a second Pirate King would appear at this Pirate Expo, and the Dark-Dark Fruit he had always longed for would never appear.
Am I really destined to live a life of mediocrity?
I'm so unwilling to accept this!
He watched Shanks become one of the Four Emperors step by step, and then watched the monster Luo Ji rise to power at an astonishing speed.
To be honest, he was really jealous of Luo Ji, that lucky kid.
They were able to recruit so many powerful individuals and help them grow to such a level that they could confront the World Government head-on.
"Teach, have a drink!"
"Judging from your expression, is something bothering you?"
"Tell me what you think is wrong, and see if I can solve it. If I can't, then there's everyone else, right?"
"If all else fails, go ask Luo Ji for advice. He can definitely solve any of your problems."
"After all, he's an all-knowing man!"
Fire Fist Ace, half-drunk, found Teach, a veteran of the Second Division, and started shouting with his arm around him.
"No, no, I'm just worried about why I'm so weak and can't get the permanent Log Pose for Laugh Tale for my dad and help him become the Pirate King."
Teach looked at himself with a simple, honest expression of self-reproach, wishing he could risk his life to retrieve the Perpetual Pointer for Whitebeard.
"Don't worry! We're not without a chance."
"All we need to do is give it our all!"
A resolute look appeared in Ace's eyes. Even Luo Ji could not stop him from seizing the Laugh Tale Perpetual Pointer.
Meanwhile, after temporarily putting away the dark purple Devil Fruit, Sachi left the kitchen department in high spirits and continued drinking with the various squad leaders.
If Luo Ji hadn't been arriving soon, he really would have wanted to share this joy with all his brothers immediately.
But after thinking about it, I decided to give everyone and Luo Ji a surprise.
Anyway, everyone will find out about the Devil Fruit tomorrow.
What Sachi didn't know was that it was this very thought that saved his life.
If he were to take out the Devil Fruit now and share his joy, Teach would probably send him to hell tonight.
While Sachi was drinking with Ace, he also had a few drinks with Teach.
Looking at the half-drunk Satchel, Teach had a vague feeling of emptiness in his three hearts.
What's going on?
Teach, who was already depressed, felt even worse, as if he had missed something important.
Could a new Pirate King really emerge at this Pirate Expo?
Teach did feel a little heartbroken; he also wanted to become the Pirate King and the strongest Devil Fruit user!
But now everything is so far away from him.
If the Dark-Dark Fruit never appears, he will only be able to retire in the Whitebeard Pirates and die a meaningless death.
White-bearded Newgate looked at his happy sons, and he knew perfectly well what they were thinking.
He wanted his sons to live safely, but they all wanted to help him become the Pirate King.
This is so annoying.
Whitebeard felt a sense of unease when he thought of Im, the "King of the World," who had once exuded a terrifying aura on Egghead Island.
He had absolutely no confidence in protecting so many sons from such a monster.
That bastard Luo Ji is a real troublemaker, making it impossible for anyone to have peace and quiet.
When Luo Ji arrives, we must teach him a proper way to behave!
