Time always passes easily without realizing it.

On the snow outside the royal city.

Natsuki was still training, but when Natsuki took a step forward, his figure suddenly appeared in the distance, and it was almost difficult to detect Natsuki's speed and traces with the naked eye.

"Tsk, I'm still not proficient." Xia Shu sighed. Shaving was not as easy as imagined. Even though he has initially mastered it, he is still not proficient in many places.

At least in terms of leg strength, he's not skilled enough yet.

It can easily lead to sudden menstrual cramps in the leg muscles.

Shaking her head, Natsuki did not continue, but turned to look into the distance. The wind and snow made it easy to blur the vision, but Natsuki could still see two figures, one large and one small, slowly walking towards here in the distance. .

Perhaps seeing him, the two figures quickened their pace.

"Adult~"

As the distance approached, the petite figure immediately rushed towards Xia Shu, and suddenly threw himself into Xia Shu's arms, wrapping his right hand around Xia Shu's neck.

The red lips also pressed tightly against Natsuki's mouth.

Natsuki hugged this petite figure and started to invade without any politeness.

But then, Natsuki grabbed the hand wrapped around his neck with his right hand and pulled it into his sight.

This slender, white and cute little hand was holding a sharp dagger, shining with a cold light, as if it was about to stab into the back of Natsuki's head just now.

"Hmm~ Sir, you have noticed it again. Is it because my beauty is not enough for you to be completely immersed in?" No. 5 said in a troubled tone.

"Ha." Hearing this, Xia Shu sneered, grabbed No. 5's neck with one hand, threw No. 5 out and hit the ground in the distance, and then looked at No. 3.

"Sir." No. 3 said in a respectful tone.

"Well, you two came at just the right time. The time should be almost up." Natsuki said with a smile.

As the voice fell, Xia Shu felt her right hand being wrapped in softness. No. 5 came over at some point, holding Xia Shu's arm while wiping the blood from her mouth and asked expectantly. "Do you have any fun plans, sir?"

"It's just a small experiment." Xia Shu turned to look at No. 5's delicate 'childish' face, lowered her head and kissed her deeply again, and then said with a smile. "But if this experiment succeeds, it will be very good news for me."

"Hmm~ When the adults said this, people suddenly started to look forward to it." No. 5 said excitedly, and his body seemed to be trembling slightly.

"Go back first." Xia Shu smiled lightly, hugged No. 5 beside him, turned around and walked towards the royal city.

No. 3 said nothing and followed Natsuki silently.

The three of them quickly returned to the palace.

In the study, Xiaoxue is not here, and should be in her room at this time.

"Sir, will this be our base camp from now on?" No. 3 asked.

"Yeah." Xia Shu nodded slightly.

"Is it so far? Doesn't it take a long time for people to come back once?" No. 5 sat on Xia Shu's lap and complained.

Natsuki didn't reply, but just picked up the two boxes he used to contain devil fruits from under the desk, put them on the desk, and said. "You can choose among these three fruits."

"One, with the ability to slow people down."

"One has the ability to transform into an orc and possess the characteristics of an animal like a black-footed cat."

"One is also the incarnation of an orc, with the ability to possess the characteristics of an animal like a bison."

For things like Devil Fruit, for Number One and Number Eight, these two abilities are not suitable for Number One, Number Two cannot use them, and Number Four does not need them.

No. 6 does not need to fight, No. 7 itself is very special.

Therefore, the four fruits are prepared for No. 3, No. 5, and No. 8. As for the last remaining one, it will be reserved for No. 9 and No. 10 in the future.

As he spoke, Natsuki opened the box, and three Devil Fruits appeared in their sights.

Both No. 3 and No. 5 focused on the three Devil Fruits.

Without any hesitation, No. 5 immediately took away the black-footed cat fruit and said happily. "I like cats, sir. After you eat it, I can transform into a cat lady to accompany you."

Natsuki didn't reply, just waiting for No. 3's choice.

After hesitating for a moment, No. 3 took the slow fruit.

"Good choice." Xia Shu smiled and nodded. "This fruit can make up for your shortcomings very well. If you develop it well, you don't have to worry about someone who is too fast being a threat to you."

Saying that, Natsuki patted No. 5 on his body.

Number 5 immediately jumped from Natsuki's arms to the ground, looking at Natsuki doubtfully.

Natsuki said. "I have something to deal with. You guys are waiting for me here, so you can get familiar with the power that this fruit brings to you. In addition, Devil Fruit has a weakness. Once eaten, you will become afraid of sea water, and even touch it. The sea water will make you weak."

After saying that, Xia Shu left the study.

Looking at Xia Shu's leaving figure, No. 5 said curiously. "I heard that your Excellency has raised a little Lolita in the palace. Did you go to that Lolita's place? It's really strange. She is also a little Lolita. Why don't you play nurturing games with her?"

heard.

No. 3 glanced at the petite and childish-looking No. 5, frowning slightly. "nausea."

"Huh?" No. 5 suddenly looked at No. 3 with murderous intent. "What do you mean? Am I not a loli?"

No. 3 shook his head and said calmly. "You became an adult three years ago."

Hearing this, No. 5 was startled, and then water mist condensed into water droplets in his big eyes. "Oooh, No. 3, you are so annoying, I feel so sad."

"..."

No. 3's mouth twitched slightly and he shook his head. He ignored the idiot woman in his eyes and just looked at the devil fruit in his hand. Then he slowly opened the peel and took a bite. No. 3's expression suddenly changed.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing No. 3's strange expression, No. 5 asked strangely.

"It's nothing." No. 3's expression returned to normal and he shook his head. “It tastes surprisingly good.”

"really?"

Hearing this, No. 5's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly opened the peel and took a bite. Then No. 5's expression changed.

Swish.

A sharp dagger was pulled out, No. 5 stared at No. 3 with a gloomy expression, and roared. "I'm going to kill you!!!"

The expression on No. 3's face remained calm. He just slowly pulled out the heavy metal hammer behind him that was as tall as No. 5 and placed it gently on the ground. But even so, the ground slowly cracked open like a spider web.

"sorry for disturbance."

Looking at the big hammer, No. 5 put away the dagger without hesitation and sat aside obediently, as if nothing happened.

...

Naturally, Xia Shu didn't know what was going on in the study.

He hurriedly left the study and came outside the palace just because of one thing.

【Ding! It has been detected that the trading time is about to end and the countdown is starting! 】

【59s! 】

【…】

【35s! 】

【…】

【02s! 】

【…】

[The countdown is over and the transaction content is being detected! 】

[The test is over, the host will pay the other party what he needs: Armed Color Haki Cultivation Method! 】

[The host did not receive a reward of one billion yen within the transaction time. This transaction was unilaterally violated by Party B. The host can open a special transaction! 】

【Ding! If it is detected that Party B is in another world, the host can take others with him to the world where Party B is located to collect the reward! 】

[Detect that the portal function is not enabled, and the portal function will be enabled in advance! 】

[The portal function has been turned on, please check it yourself! 】

As the voices in my mind sounded and fell.

In front of Natsuki, the system panel appeared.

As the smile gradually rose on Xia Shu's face, the gray 'portal' function on the screen gradually became brighter.

When the 'portal' function was fully illuminated, Natsuki chose the 'portal' function without hesitation.

I saw the screen change.

Two huge portals appeared in front of Xia Shu.

There are subtitles on every door.

One is: Random!

One door reads: Contract!

Plain and simple, random portals are created by entering transaction points and then randomly traveling to other worlds.

The contract is specifically used to go to the world where those 'customers' who unilaterally violate the contract transaction are located.

One requires trading points, one does not.

"Hahaha, it really worked." Looking at the two portals in front of her, Xia Shu couldn't help but smile excitedly.

He had speculated before, what if he made a deal with people from other worlds, but the other party broke the contract? Can he go to the other person's world?

Under this doubt, Natsuki and Koichi Zito made a deal as an attempt.

Now it seems that it is exactly as he guessed, and the 'portal' function can be opened in advance.

Without hesitation, Xia Shu turned around and returned to the study.

At this time, the two people in the study had obviously eaten the Devil Fruit, and Natsuki's eyes flashed with excitement as he ordered. "Rinto."

"exist!"

"Call No. 8 over."

"Yes."

A respectful voice sounded outside the door, and he left immediately.

Number 5 returned to Natsuki's lap again, wrapping his hands around Natsuki's neck. He keenly noticed the excitement in Natsuki's eyes and asked curiously. "Sir, is there anything you are happy about? Tell me to make others happy."

"Hahaha." Natsuki grinned. "There is indeed something happy. You will know about it when the 8th comes."

As soon as he finished speaking, the study door was pushed open and then closed.

When No. 8 came to Natsuki, his legs had recovered a lot, at least the limp was not that obvious.

"Boss, what's going on?" No. 8 scratched his head and asked.

"important things."

The corners of Xia Shu's mouth raised as she thought.

hum.

A door suddenly appeared in front of Xia Shu.

The door is closed, full of ancient and vicissitudes of life.

Immediately afterwards, the door was slowly opened, and a dazzling light burst out from inside.

Xia Shu's eyes became more and more excited as he said. "Come on, come with me, this is a whole new world for you!"
