The ghost sword hero of the pirate

id "con682426">

On the ice formed by the cold air of the netherworld, Toral's body continued to roll and twist, and the surface of his skin began to gradually dry up.

Roar

The thunderous roar resounded throughout Del Salado, showing how painful it was.

"Hey, what's wrong with you"

Arriving in front of Toral and seeing its weak appearance, Ferro was a little confused.

I thought to myself, I didn’t do anything to him. Could this guy be pretending on purpose?

Human, help me drag me into the volcanic lake, otherwise I will die."

Toral, who still had some strength, opened his eyes and looked at Ferro imploringly.

If it were not facing the threat of death, it would never release such a message.

“Captain, before Ojos said it couldn’t leave the volcanic lake for too long, there must be some reason.

It's supposed to be time, so it's like this. "

Seeing that the battle could no longer proceed, Tesla came to Ferro, observed Toral's situation, and expressed his guess.

Hurry up, please, I'm going to die in a minute."

Toral, I hate Tesla so much that I will turn into a mummy, but this guy is still interested in studying me.

Snapped

Although he couldn't figure out Toral's situation, he still had to give it a try anyway. Ferro grabbed Toral's tail and dragged it all the way to the hole just now.

Worried that Toral would take the opportunity to slip back into his lair, Ferro just pressed its head into the rolling lake water to see the situation first.

Murmur

As soon as his head entered the lake, Toral seemed to find some strength, and then swallowed the water in big mouthfuls.

As a large amount of lake water entered Toral's body, a magical scene occurred, and the speed of its body's deflation decreased significantly.The areas even began to return to their original appearance, and the skin regained its elasticity.

The entry of the lake water seemed to light a fuse, and the blood vessels under Toral's skin suddenly began to twist, making it look even more terrifying.

However, what was even more frightening was yet to come. As the struggle in Toral's body intensified, the blood vessels under its fleshy wings suddenly burst open, and an insect as thick as a finger was flushed out by the blood.

This insect is twenty centimeters long, with a transparent body filled with black-red blood. Even if it falls on the ice, it is still full of energy and squirming crazily.

"what the hell"

To be honest, Ferro, who thought he was very neurotic, was disgusted by a bug for the first time.

creak

Fierro raised his foot, aimed at the insect, then struck it down, and twisted it hard.

Unexpectedly, under Ferro's huge force, the insect did not explode. Its body was unusually strong. Even though it had been crushed into pieces, the exposed head even had the strength to unfold its hook. The same teeth were directed towards Ferro's feet.

锵

Unable to tolerate the insect mucus on his shoes, Ferro decisively drew his sword. This time the insect did not escape, and its head was cut off at once. The blood in his stomach dyed a large piece of ice red.

"This is a parasite unique to the South China Sea, called schistosomiasis, which usually parasitizes fish. Infected fish have obviously enlarged abdomens, vertical scales, protruding eyes, and water accumulation in the eye sockets."

Tesla picked out the squirming bugs with his short knife and continued, "But the schistosomiasis is definitely not that big, and its vitality is not that strong at all."

"Stop pretending to be dead, Toral, tell me how you got infected with something so disgusting."

Ferro asked after kicking the weakened Toral.

I don’t know, it must have been something I ate. I’ve been tortured by it for a long time.

I didn't feel anything at first, but this thing seemed to evolve, becoming more and more powerful, and it would get further every time it reproduced.

Only by staying in this volcanic lake will it stop and enter a dormant state.

Toral blinked feebly, it also hated this thing deeply.

"Captain, what did this guy say to you?"

Seeing Ferro and Toral winking there, Tesla was very curious.

"I have some guesses, it's like this..."

Retelling Toral's experience, Ferro also expressed his conjecture.

"It should be. The thing in this guy's body must have eaten a devil fruit, otherwise he wouldn't be restrained by the water of the volcanic lake."

Although it may sound unbelievable, as a scientist, Tesla believed that anything was possible.

"I think so too. Since this kind of insect is parasitic in Toral's body, seawater cannot affect him at all. Even if Toral drinks a lot of seawater, it will only absorb a very small amount of the factors of the sea floor stone into the body." in vivo.

But this volcanic lake is different. The water here is equivalent to liquid sea rock, so Toral will be fine if he stays here.

The factors of the sea floor stone will continue to be diluted out of the body, which is why Toral cannot leave here for too long.

"Ferro continued to analyze.

"I remembered, this bug must have eaten the derived fruit of the Superman system." Tesla suddenly thought of something.

"Fruit of Evolution"

Ferro was a little confused. This was the first time he heard about this kind of fruit.

"Yes, it is the fruit of reproduction. After eating this fruit, you can quickly reproduce and have excellent genes for your offspring.

It can be said that the more offspring are produced, the stronger the ability user will evolve. This is an ancient legend spread on an island in the South China Sea. "

Tesla remembered the story he had heard when he was a child and told it in detail.

When Ferro heard this, he also began to recall the fruit illustrations he had seen. There was no relevant record. It was probably because the fruit had not been discovered by the world after it was eaten by insects.

This schistosomiasis should have evolved a variety of powerful genes, including longevity genes, otherwise it would have died long ago.

Moreover, if Toral hadn't been soaking in the volcanic lake, making its iteration almost stagnant, no one could tell how far it would have grown.

In other words, with Toral's size and vitality, an ordinary human would have been sucked dry of blood by the schistosomiasis, looking for the next host.

Hey, human being, please ask that guy quickly. There is nothing you can do about it. How can you kill it quickly?

Although Toral could not speak, he could understand Tesla's words. After hearing Tesla's analysis, he quickly cast a questioning look at Ferro.

Toral didn't notice that Tesla, which it hated just a moment ago, now made it extremely dependent on him.

"No need to ask him, will you let me try, Toral?"
