A wonderful adventure that begins with a pirate
Chapter 21 The origin fabricated in advance
The two talked happily, and Otis also laughed, but when he opened his mouth, he rejected Matt's words again: "Of course the market situation is what I said, but if you want to buy or sell Devil Fruit, Things are not that simple.”
He explained: "Devil Fruits are inherently rare. Anyone who sees it is lucky. After seeing it and getting to know it, he still needs to know the market and trading conditions before he can find a way to sell it. Even so, If we really want to buy or sell something, both parties must have sufficient strength, otherwise it may become an open robbery. This kind of thing has happened a lot in Qinghai."
Otis made it clear, making Matt nod repeatedly: "Indeed, it is not easy to achieve such a high-priced deal."
At this point, he remembered his first words and couldn't help but look at Otis in surprise and asked: "So this is your real deal, and it seems that you have already made it once."
Otis nodded and gave the answer.
"You're so good, kid." This time, Matt was really impressed by Otis and praised him out loud.
After sighing, he couldn't help but wonder: "Then you can handle all the troubles and difficulties you just mentioned."
Otis grinned again: "Didn't I tell you before, I'm still very strong, so there's no problem with the transaction being safe."
One sentence was followed by a boast: "You can tell from what I said just now about the market situation and so on. I also know a little bit about it."
Finally, he wiped his nose and said: "As for the first and most important thing, how to find the devil fruit, this is what makes me better than others, and it is also the reason why I am here."
"What is it?" Matt's appetite was successfully whetted.
After laying the groundwork for so long, Otis finally came up with the final words that concealed his true purpose.
"I told you the price of Devil Fruit in Qinghai, so you should also know how many people can go crazy with such a number."
Matt pondered for a while and sighed: "Indeed, one trillion Igus, one hundred million Baileys, is enough to make everyone crazy about it. Even I just heard about this situation and couldn't help but think wildly. "
Otis nodded: "So, regarding Devil Fruit, there has been chaos down there for a long time. Countless people are dreaming of getting rich overnight with this, and any place where it is possible has been looted."
"So powerful." Even though he already knew the shocking facts about Devil Fruit, Matt couldn't help but be surprised when he heard what Otis just said.
Of course that's not the case. A lot of the whole content was made up by Otis, and everything was just to deceive him.
But on the face of it, Otis certainly behaved in a completely honest manner.
"That's not true." Otis shrugged. "I just got lucky once. No matter how hard I work in the future, I won't be able to match the good things I did before."
"So" at this point, Matt also understood somewhat.
"So you know why I came here? Since there is so much competition in Qinghai, then just find a place with less competition."
Otis said with a proud look: "The secret treasure of the sea appears randomly. Many people may not see it in their lifetime, but you may also find it anywhere, so theoretically speaking, Qinghai and Baihai are here There is no difference at all. While there are countless people in Qinghai searching and fighting for it, not many people in Baihai know about Devil Fruits. In this way, my chances of finding Devil Fruits are greatly increased."
After going around in a big circle, Matt finally figured out the purpose of Otis coming to Bika. Although it was only on the surface, it was still enough to surprise him.
"This is really true." Matt opened his mouth wide at first, then shook his head and sighed after a while, "You are really crazy. Although it makes sense to think so, you would take the risk of coming to us just to improve yourself. Dare enough to think and do it.”
Obviously, he was completely shocked by Otis's boldness and madness.
After a long while, he spoke again, but this time he asked a key or somewhat sensitive question: "If you plan like this, why do you tell me everything? Are you not afraid that we will find them all here?" Are you going to grab the Devil Fruit?"
Faced with such a question, Otis just smiled.
This is of course not a big flaw in his fabricated rhetoric. In fact, if he only went so far, it would have no meaning at all for his purpose of obtaining the Thunder Fruit.
With the last link added, this set of fabricated origins can help his actions.
I saw Otis asking: "Then will you go to Qinghai to sell Devil Fruit? Or is the Devil Fruit on the island worth one trillion Egus coins?"
Matt was startled and finally understood what Otis meant.
Pursuing and buying and selling Devil Fruits only makes sense in the context provided by Otis, which is Qinghai, because only in Qinghai have Devil Fruits been sold for a price of 100 million beli, while Bai Hai has nothing to do with this. Relationship.
So as Otis said, after finding the fruit, he went to Qinghai to sell it. Not to mention that Matt grew up here. The whole family is here and they are reluctant to leave. Even if some people are willing to travel far away for money, Bai Hai The risks with Qinghai are no joke. If you are not careful, let alone making money or even your life will be involved.
Even if we take a step back and ignore this point, assuming that someone successfully goes to Qinghai and plans to stay after making money and not risk returning, there is still a problem how to complete the transaction in the middle. As Otis reminded before, such a large amount of business cannot be done without strength, and it will definitely be even more difficult for the Baihai people who are unfamiliar with the place.
So looking back, it's really unlikely that Bika would end up in the situation Matt said.
"Indeed, I think no one would take risks like you." Matt obviously thought clearly, shaking his head and smiling.
Otis's words were more than that.
Just listen to him say: "So not only am I not worried about telling you, I also hope that everyone on the island knows."
These words naturally made Matt wonder again: "Why?"
Otis answered him: "Because you won't argue with me. No one is willing to go to Qinghai anyway, so the news will spread if people know there is a problem, and it will make everyone more enthusiastic about Devil Fruits." A little is a good thing for me, because if you pay more attention, you will be more likely to discover and find fruits.”
"That's true. If you are paying attention, the chance of encountering so many people is definitely higher than just you alone."
"That's right, so don't keep it a secret from me. Telling everyone will help me a lot." Otis nodded and smiled. In fact, this was what he really wanted to say.
He continued: "Of course, this matter is not without explanation. If someone really discovers the Devil Fruit and he is willing to take action, I will definitely buy it at a high price, although 100 million Baileys is one trillion Egus coins. No, but it won’t disappoint.”
