Devil fruit in comics

Chapter 7 Task Execution
The task reward of 500 million Berry means that the difficulty of this task will not be very high.

At least from the perspective of the amount of rewards, this is the case.

But whether it is really that easy, we need to see Dr. Connors, the lizard man.

Even if there were not [-], there were [-] fellow travelers who overturned in the hands of the "novice monster".

On the surface, "traversing" is a very happy thing, and it is the best way to reach the pinnacle of life.

But in reality, it's more likely to be a high-speed train ride to hell rather than heaven.

After yesterday's training, Roger has roughly mastered the two combat moves of "bounce thread" and "five-color thread". The system also recognized these two moves and added them to his list of combat moves.

"The fruit of the thread-stretching thread: shoot a thin thread at high speed like a gun from the tip of the index finger, and it can be far and near, and its power is comparable to a large-caliber pistol."

"Line fruit—five-color thread: create a sharp thin line on each of the five fingers, cut or cut the target with the gesture of a beast claw, a melee move."

The system's explanation for these two moves is only a simple sentence.

If he continues to develop or improve the power of these two moves in the future, the system will give a more detailed explanation of these two moves.

In terms of the number of moves, what he currently has mastered is far from enough.

However, this does not mean that the fighting ability of the fruit of the line is only these.

To some extent, the thread fruit is actually quite similar to Spiderman's spider silk. Although they are just simple abilities, they can still exert good effects in battle if they are used well.

With the basic use of the thread fruit, the unique moves of the two thread fruits, and his decent melee combat ability, it shouldn't be a problem to complete the task of "capturing Professor Lizard".

After roughly calculating his current combat power, Rogge walked towards the small supermarket near the hospital.

To complete the task of catching Professor Lizard, the first thing to solve is to find his whereabouts.

Although Roger did not have the professional intelligence network of the police, he knew a little trick to find Professor Lizard.

After buying today's latest newspaper and a Spider-Man headgear in a small supermarket, he began to look for reports on the actions of Boss Joe and others last night in the newspapers.

Unlike the florist's news media, the American news media has a mysteriously high interest in the police's external actions.

No matter which criminal gang the police successfully cracked down on, or the jokes made by the police, it will attract the attention of these media.

If the police’s actions involve superheroes or super villains, as long as there are no major events such as alien invasion or world destruction the next day, then these police actions will basically become the headlines of the day.

This can be regarded as a unique landscape of the Great America.

Sure enough, on the headlines of today's newspaper, Roger easily found the action report of Boss Joe and others last night.

"Five dead and thirteen injured! The arrest of the lizardmen failed again!"

After reading this detailed news report that seemed like the reporter was at the scene of the action, Roger threw the newspaper into the trash can and started to go to the scene of the action where Boss Joe and the others took place last night.

…………

Osborne Group, top office.

"Have you found Dr. Connors' whereabouts yet?"

Norman Osborne, the chairman and founder of the Osborne Group, sat behind a large desk and said without raising his head.

On his left, there is today's latest New York Times, and the headline on it is also the arrest operation of the police last night.

The only difference was that the headlines of the news were different from what Roger had read.

"Sorry sir, we haven't locked down the whereabouts of Dr. Connors yet."

Standing in front of Norman Osborn was a big black man who wore a suit to look like tights.

"I'll give you another three days. If you still can't catch Dr. Connors back, you can go to the laboratory in the suburbs to be guards."

Although Norman Osborn's tone was very calm, to the ears of the big black man, it was no different from the threat of a demon.

As the captain of the Osborne Group's security team, the big black man knew the true face of the suburban laboratory better than anyone else.

"Okay, sir! We will definitely get Dr. Connors back within three days!"

The big black man's face was dripping with sweat, and he tried to control his tone and replied.

"Remember, it must be captured alive. The living Dr. Connors has the greatest value."

After finishing speaking, Norman Osborn waved to the big black man, indicating that he could leave.

…………

The scene of the police operation last night in Brooklyn.

Roger didn't know what happened in the Osborne Group, and now he was walking in the sewer near the scene of the operation with the Spider-Man headgear he just bought.

Enduring the bad smell in the sewer, Roger quickly moved forward in this labyrinth-like sewer.

It is not easy to find Dr. Connors the Lizard in the huge New York City.

But if you have some unknown information, then this matter will become much easier.

Others may not know it, but Roger clearly remembers that Dr. Connors, who was injected with the lizard gene drug, has the charisma to attract reptiles.

This charisma, which only works on reptilian creatures, is uncontrollable, and even if Dr. Conners discovered this, he couldn't prevent it from happening.

So if you want to find Dr. Connors, the best way is not to study his course of action and thinking mode, but to follow the reptiles in the sewer directly.

Follow these little guys to Dr. Connors, as long as you can find the reptilian creatures behaving strangely.

After advancing for more than half an hour in the sewer where the air environment was harsh, Roger finally encountered various small lizards that behaved abnormally.

I saw these little lizards slowly crawling in the same direction like small troops.

"Got you!"

After identifying the direction in which these lizards were heading, Rogge showed a satisfied smile, and rushed towards the direction in which these lizards were heading.

500 million berries, here I come!
For ordinary people, the lizardman, who has quick reflexes, amazing strength, and super regeneration effect, is a terrifying creature that cannot be defeated.

But to him, the lizardfolk were a bunch of walking beries.

Even if he couldn't defeat the lizard man now, he was absolutely sure of getting out.

Travelers are so confident.

But soon, the confidence on his face turned into doubt.

Why is he here?

What appeared in front of Roger at this time was not Dr. Connors the Lizardman, but Spider-Man wearing the same headgear and matching tights.
