One Piece Dragon Collector

Chapter 230 Books and Fruits
.........

Bernard had a new understanding of Spark's defensive power.

"This kind of defense is much stronger than that of Diamond Joe. I'm afraid he can resist Garp's punches head-on for several times without vomiting blood." Bernard thought to himself.

Seeing Bernard finished speaking, Spark spoke again: "The patriarch is right, but at the speed of the patriarch's thunder fruit, I can't beat the patriarch."

"The world is so big, there is almost no place the patriarch can't go."

After listening to Spark and Bernard's explanation, Ullens also understood his grandson's current strength, and smiled happily: "Haha, not bad, really good, I didn't expect you to be so strong, grandson." .”

"It's almost far away! One day, the Quixote family will become the first family of the Tianlong people." Bernard's voice was firm and powerful.

"Even the only Celestial Dragon family!" Bernard thought to himself.

Hearing this, Ullens patted Bernard on the shoulder in relief, and said, "Then grandpa will see that you will carry forward the family."

Ullens also looked forward to his grandson being able to bring Don Quixote to that step and become the true uncrowned king.

After some discussion, the group returned to the third floor at the top of the vine, and Spark also went down to treat the animal wound on the arm.

Bernard will not return to Marie Gioia for the time being, and plans to take Ullens to live on the empty island for a while, enjoying the last leisure time.

Because in the next period of time, Bernard intends to plan to break through the general in an all-round way and completely possess the combat power of the general level.

And the realization of this goal, Bernard put his hope on the island of Thor...

While Bernard was taking a leisurely vacation on the empty island, the sea was still in turmoil.

The navy is recuperating and preparing for the war a month later, and the pirates have rarely settled down because of the navy's previous shock.

In the past seven days, the looting of civilians in the village has become less and less.

The originally turbid sea now has a touch of clarity.

But many people know that this will be the last calm before the storm.

The navy and pirates will truly determine the future situation of the sea in the new world one month later.

Time is passing quietly,

Seven days later, Bernard took Ullens and the others back to Mary Gioia.

After returning, Bernard also went to visit the Elise Palace, which he had not seen for many days.

Elise Palace, who thought she was left out by Bernard, ignored Bernard's arrival.

But in the end, under Bernard's shamelessness and constant frivolity, Elise Palace was still defeated and lay in Bernard's arms with a rosy face, and said softly, "When will we get married?"

"This may take a while, I still have some things to deal with." Bernard said while playing with Elise Palace's hair.

"It always feels like you're hiding a lot of things from me." Elise Palace wrinkled her nose and said.

"Of course, you haven't entered the family of the Quixote family yet." Bernard said a little straight.

Elise Palace, who stopped talking, said speechlessly: "What is this, should I praise you for your honesty?"

While hiding something from her, I honestly confessed that I did hide something from you.

If it weren't for the years of getting along, Elise Palace still knows Bernard's character well, and Elise Palace might lose her temper.

"Is this a matter of principle? It's not that I really want to hide it from you. Naturally, I can't tell you some family secrets until you enter the door." Bernard laughed.

Bernard lied, and Bernard did hide a lot about Elise Palace.

Bernard didn't tell Elise Palace about his own strength, killing Giovanni Saint, etc.

It's not that Bernard doesn't believe in Elise Palace, it's just that the less people know about some things, it's a secret, and the more people know about it, it's not a secret.

On the other hand, as Bernard said, Elise Palace has not officially married Bernard yet, so it is really inconvenient in terms of status.

Sensing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, Bernard deliberately changed the subject and laughed, "Why, do you want me to eat you so impatiently?"

Elise Palace blushed when Bernard made such a move, she shyly slapped Bernard's hands off and said, "Don't make trouble!"

Looking at the alluring look of Elise Palace, Bernard almost couldn't bear his bestiality.

However, in order to make his wedding night more perfect, Bernard still forcibly suppressed his thoughts.

Yes, until now Bernard has not eaten Elise Palace, and now Elise Palace is still a baby.

This world system may be closer to the feudal system of the previous life, but there is no rule that you cannot have intercourse before marriage, as long as you are voluntary, it doesn't matter.

Even according to Bernard's understanding, the nobles in this world are in chaos, and the system is so big that only you can't think of it, and there is nothing they can't do.

The reason why Bernard and Elise Palace haven't had sex yet is probably because of a small obsession in Bernard's previous life: on the wedding night, his bride must be the first time, so that it can be regarded as his future husband and wife life Off to a good start.

In the end, Bernard still endured the unbearable pain, and it was not good to go back to Xiaolan and the others at this time.

So she whispered a few words in the ear of Elise Palace.

All of a sudden, the originally ruddy Elise Palace became even redder, almost smoking.

Elise Palace shyly refused at first and shook her head, but in the end she insisted on it under the insistence of Bernard Earhams.

Elise Palace still moved down slowly obediently, then lowered her head.

.........

In the evening, the sun shyly showed only half of his red cheeks.

The red radiance sprinkled on the ground, and Bernard, who had just spent some tenderness with Elise Palace, was walking back to the manor refreshed.

"What a stunner!" Bernard walked, recalling the wonderful feeling just now.

Thinking of Elise Palace's pure and charming face, Bernard became shamefully hard again.

"Huhuhu—" Bernard quickly took three deep breaths, not thinking about these things.

This kind of thing can be regarded as an adjustment in life, but it can't be used as a main course. Bernard is still clear about this.

Back in the manor,
Bernard first took a medicinal bath and massage as usual.

But this time Bernard behaved well, and didn't play with Bai and Hong again, after all, he had already handed over food at Elise Palace just now.

After eating a few medicated meals prepared by the chef, Bernard came to the study. This is Bernard's favorite place to stay besides the bedroom where he sleeps and the training ground where he trains.

Bernard sat at the table, quietly flipping through some books, and Xiao Lan also sat beside Bernard.

When looking at a small country miscellaneous diary, Bernard suddenly said: "Is there any major event in the sea recently?"

"No, the sea has been very calm recently, but one month after the news from the navy, they will send troops to the new world again," Xiaolan said.

"I guess I want to attack Whitebeard!" Bernard said while flipping through the books on the table.

"Ah."

Bernard suddenly closed the book and asked Xiao Lan, "Xiao Lan, do you want to become a devil fruit user?"

"It's all up to the young master." Xiaolan smiled as if she had no idea.

Looking at Xiao Lan's face close at hand, Bernard smiled and said, "You."

After speaking, Bernard took out a small box from underneath.

When I opened the box, I saw a devil fruit with white square arabesque pattern lying quietly inside.

Bernard pointed to the fruit and introduced: "This is the book fruit, a very good devil fruit."

That's right, this devil fruit is the devil fruit of Charlotte Mondore, the No.19 son of the Charlotte family and one of the 34 ministers in the original book, "Minister of Cheese".

It's just that when the navy destroyed Cake Island, it was acquired by the navy, and after some twists and turns, it fell into Bernard's hands.

Xiaolan didn't hesitate, picked up the fruit and took a bite without asking why.

Since Bernard took out the fruit, it meant that Bernard wanted her to eat the fruit.

Although Xiaolan doesn't know about this fruit, Xiaolan is willing to believe in Bernard.

"Ouch, it's really unpalatable." Xiao Lan said with disgust after taking a bite and swallowing.

Seeing Xiaolan's lack of hesitation, Bernard was inevitably moved.

Suppressing the emotion in his heart, Bernard said calmly: "If possible, it's better to eat all of it."

"What?" Xiaolan was taken aback when she heard this.

Even if she doesn't know devil fruit very well, she knows that devil fruit can gain power just by eating one bite.

But in the end, Xiao Lan still believed in Bernard, and swallowed the whole fruit while suppressing nausea and vomiting.

"Drink some water." Bernard poured a glass of water thoughtfully, and put it in front of Xiaolan.

Xiaolan immediately raised the glass, and regardless of her appearance, she gulped down the water in the glass in one gulp.

"Huh~" Xiaolan put down the cup and let out a long gulp.

Bernard asked with concern: "How is it, how do you feel?"

"It's terrible..." Xiaolan said subconsciously, and then realized that Bernard might not be asking about this, and said, "Wait a minute, master."

After speaking, Xiaolan closed her eyes lightly, and after a while, Xiaolan made a gesture of holding a book with both hands, and a white light appeared in Xiaolan's hands.

Slowly, a book with a taupe cover appeared in Xiaolan's hands.

Xiaolan handed the book to Bernard and said, "Master..."

Bernard took it and flipped through it. There were not many pages, and they were all blank.

After closing the book, he praised: "Well, yes, the ability to condense the book so quickly shows that you are still very talented..."

"Also..." Bernard took out another stack of documents from the drawer, pushed it in front of Xiaolan and said, "I don't know much about this fruit, and I can't give much advice on its development.

"However, here are some book fruit ability users recorded in history, I hope these can help you."

"Thank you, young master." Xiaolan took the document and said.

After handing over the document to Xiaolan, Bernard flipped through the Xiaoguo Miscellaneous Notes that he had just read halfway through.

Xiaolan also silently flipped through the documents in her hand.

For a while, there was silence in the study room, only the sound of pages turning.
