Pirate's Ape Fruit

"This"

After listening to Luffy's story, Sabo showed a hesitant expression.

Luffy could also see from Sabo's expression that he was struggling. Anyway, he had told Sabo about the flaws of the artificial Devil Fruit. If Sabo and the revolutionary army wanted to sell it, Luffy would never be able to put the knife on it. on their necks, forcing them not to buy.

Luffy can also see that Sabo also wants to get some artificial Devil Fruits

After Sabo struggled for a while, he asked tentatively: "Luffy, what's the price of your artificial Devil Fruit?"

"In the prosperous and peaceful times, one person was worth thousands of gold." Luffy secretly rejoiced in his heart, "Now in the troubled times, one person is definitely worth ten thousand gold."

"what"

Sabo was completely confused. He thought it would be cheaper in troubled times, but he never expected that Luffy was raising the price randomly.

Sabo said with an expression of extreme dissatisfaction: "Luffy, you are clearly trying to trick our revolutionary army. Even if you don't tell me about this brotherhood, we are also friendly forces after all. Your heart is too dark, even if we start Those who work in gold mines will be helpless when encountering a gold-devouring beast like you."

"Sabo, this is my brother's price." Luffy patted his chest and said, "If you don't like the price, you can participate in the auctions every week. Each time there are three to ten artificial demons. Fruit, you can go there and try your luck. Don’t say I’m unjust then.”

"This"

Sabo couldn't see any confusion or strangeness in Luffy's eyes or expression, so he didn't think Luffy was lying.

In fact, the price that Luffy sold to Sabo was a slightly mid-range price at the auction. If you don't say it is a joke, it would be a joke.

After Sabo hesitated for a moment, he decided to tell Long about this.

"Yeah"

Luffy could tell from the expression on the phone bug in Sabo's hand that his bastard father seemed to have a strong interest in this artificial Devil Fruit.

As expected, Sabo quickly handed the phone bug in his hand to Luffy

When Luffy took the call, he said with a bad look on his face: "Damn dad, if you want to take advantage of me, then we don't have to say anything."

What Luffy said was very direct.

Long didn't look angry because of Luffy's words, but with an unchanging tone, and even his entire expression from the beginning, as calm as a calm, without the slightest disturbance, "Luffy, if we cooperate in large quantities or for a long time, If so, what’s the lowest price you can lower it to?”

Listening to Long's words, Luffy could tell that his father was definitely a good businessman.

Luffy said firmly: "It's still the same, after all, scarcity is more valuable."

Long suddenly cursed: "You brat, do you really think that I am so easy to fool? If something is really rare, then it is not an artificial devil fruit. Besides, it goes to auction every time, how many do you think it can be?" "scarce"

Luffy could tell that Ryuu just wanted to keep the price down.

"Eight thousand gold coins, no more."

But Long said with a very determined expression: "Five thousand gold coins, if it is higher than five thousand gold coins, then stop talking, we don't want it."

Although one artificial Devil Fruit can only be sold to the Revolutionary Army for five thousand gold coins, Luffy still made a lot of money. Naturally, he said with a smile on his face: "It's okay, but you must buy no less than ten each time." Artificial Devil Fruit, after all, if it doesn’t sell in volume, I won’t make any money, right?”

"ten"

Saab wants to sell people.

Ten means that you have to spend 50,000 gold coins every time to buy artificial devil fruits, which is a big expense.

Sabo couldn't help but cursed: "Luffy, when did your heart become so dark?"

Luffy said with an unhappy look on his face: "Sabo, this is a business. I didn't put a knife to your necks to force you to buy. Now I'm saying I have a bad heart."

Luffy blocked Sabo's mouth with a few words.

At this time, the transaction between Gold and Bailey was completed.

Luffy had a smile on his face, because he used Mifune's paper and exchanged it for a shipload of gold from the Revolutionary Army, which was a huge profit.

But at this moment, Long said something that Luffy had never thought of.

Ryuushi said with a very serious look on his face: "Luffy, let's find a time to meet."

"Meet"

Luffy was a little flattered by Long's words.

"Dad, don't think that because you are my dad, I will let you take advantage of me."

"Forget it if you don't want to." Long's words were very straightforward.

"who said it"

However, there is something a little strange about these two father and son.

Although I said I wanted to meet him sometime, I couldn’t find any time in half a day.

It's not that Luffy and the others couldn't find time to come out, it's that the two of them were timid at the critical moment.

"Dad, I'm very busy"

"me too"

Luffy and Long finally discussed whether whoever had time would ask the other out to meet.

This little trick that Luffy and the Revolutionary Army carried out in private was naturally soon known to the top leaders of the World Government.

The four old stars are now looking at each other, because they all understand that if Luffy continues to do this, Bailey will be in the same situation as the New World and become a piece of paper, and then the hegemony of these Celestial Dragons will fall apart. .

This is a big deal. After all, their existence is to protect the hegemony of the Celestial Dragons.

Tai said with an annoyed look on his face: "These revolutionary troops are just a bunch of rabble. They really think they can overthrow the world. They are really a bunch of stupid guys who have become our knives. They don't have any clues at all." Really, you are really stupid."

Yang said with a worried look on his face: "Our world government was established with the help of the foundation of these countries. There were originally 1,700 countries of various sizes, but now there are only more than 200 countries left. If we want to use the revolution to It is probably impossible to wipe out more than two hundred countries with the help of the army."

Kaname also said with certainty: "It's really unlikely. These kings and royal families, including the nobles, have already become ants on the hot pot. If they continue like this, they will definitely not sit still and wait for death. Maybe they will unite. stand up."

"This is indeed a problem." Tai Ye felt that it was not possible to use the help of the revolutionary army to clear out more than two hundred countries. "At the moment, we still select qualified candidates to kill this fifth veteran star." I’ll wait until my position is filled.”

"That's a good suggestion."

These four old stars have lived for so many years, and they are naturally more vixen than vixens. They don't want to deal with these revolutionary troops now. They will wait until the time is almost right to take action, and then try to play hard to get. By then, these two hundred Many countries will definitely be reduced a lot again, at least dozens of countries.

Then the rights and places of the world government will be more consolidated, and it will gradually move towards the true rule of the Celestial Dragons.

Although the current world government is still decided by the Celestial Dragons, these Celestial Dragons do not have the right to control the world government. To put it bluntly, because of the region, these regions are controlled by kings or royal families, and big nobles, so when these places are If it becomes a city founded by the Celestial Dragons, it will be controlled by the Celestial Dragons.

Thinking of this, Tai looked at the other three veteran stars as the leader of the veteran stars and said: "My suggestion is to quickly let Cyborg Kong take up the position of the fifth veteran star."

Taidu had already said it himself, so naturally the other three veteran stars had no objection at all.

Navy Headquarters.

Marin Vando.

When Cyborg Kong learned the news, he was confused.

Because Cyborg Kong also knows the rules of the old star, he also knows that he is no match for Luffy now. If nothing else happens, it is not impossible that he may be the shortest-lived old star in history.

But this was an order, and Cyborg Kong didn't dare to disobey it.

Warring States and the others didn't know what Lao Xing's rules were, but now they all looked happy.

That's because they feel that as long as Cyborg Kong becomes the fifth veteran star, as a man from the navy, he will more or less definitely provide some benefits to the navy. At least now he doesn't have to be suppressed everywhere, making it difficult for the navy to move forward.

Sakas basically looked overjoyed, but he never expected that Cyborg Kong's current expression was actually a bit more bitter than Balsam Pear.

Warring States suddenly looked puzzled and asked: "Brother Cyborg Kong, you have become an old star. What an honor it is."

"glory"

Cyborg Kong is an understanding person. What he sees now is not glory, but a reminder. He said with a look of helplessness: "You think the old star is really that good?"

As soon as Gang Gukong said these words, the generals present thought that the navy in the past would definitely be able to move directly from this decline to a new high point in history. After all, an old star has emerged from their navy, which is said to be a great honor for the navy. , is not an exaggeration at all.

But Ganggu Kong's words were like pouring cold water on each of these people's hearts.

"Old Marshal, what do you know?" Sakaski naturally wants to know why. After all, if he can create another glorious era of the Navy, then he, the Navy Marshal, will definitely stay in the Navy. History, Sakaski felt it was necessary.

Cyborg Kong said with a very serious expression: "Then there is no need to know why now."

Because this was an order from above, Cyborg Kong could not disobey it, so he could only accept the invitation of the World Government and became the fifth old star and one of the most powerful old stars in control of the World Government.

Of course, as Cyborg Kong becomes the Five Old Star, he will naturally become the center of attention in the world and appear in the news.

Luffy was on his way back to Cake Island at this time.

With a ship full of gold, Luffy would naturally have to escort it personally. If the gold was taken away, he would be heartbroken.

There was a news bird flying in the sky. Luffy just waved to the news bird, and the news bird flew down immediately.

Luffy still used Bailey to buy news, because these news are no longer news about the new world, but record some news about the four sea areas, so Luffy sometimes can understand the situation of the outside world through these news

When Luffy saw the news for the first time, his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Brooke, who was playing the violin, suddenly asked with a puzzled expression: "Luffy, what are you doing?"

"See for yourself"

Brooke's jaw dropped to the ground, then he picked it up and put it back again, "Luffy, Cyborg Kong has become an old star."

Luffy also had a look full of surprise. He never thought that Cyborg Kong would become an old star.

However, Luffy thinks that he does not have much friendship with Cyborg Kong. If he dares to cause trouble for him, then his fists will not recognize anyone and he will have to beat him up.

However, Luffy immediately took out the phone bug.

Because of the issues regarding some old stars, Luffy naturally had to find the former old star, now Huang Hu

Huang Hu is now working for Luffy, and Luffy is his boss. Naturally, Huang Hu knows everything that Luffy asks, and tells everything he knows.

Luffy never expected that there used to be more than a dozen old stars, but now there are only five old stars left. He also knows some of the conditions for becoming a veteran star.

"So that's what happened."

Although Luffy knew the ins and outs, he never expected that Cyborg Kong had been scheduled to be the sixth veteran star a long time ago. Later, because the Queen lost to Luffy, Cyborg Kong was urgently needed to replace him. Huang Hu’s position remains unchanged with the current number of five veteran stars.

However, Luffy believed that Huang Hu must be the unluckiest old star in history, bar none.

That's because even Huang Hu couldn't beat Luffy. Although Cyborg Kong took Huang Hu's place, he couldn't beat Huang Hu, which showed that he was very unlucky.

At this time, Cyborg Kong also became an old star in power under a grand ceremony.

After Cyborg Kong became an old star, he was more worried, but he did not deliberately worry too much, because what was supposed to come would eventually come, and no matter how much he worried, it was of no use.

Although Luffy knew that Cyborg Kong was unlikely to cause much trouble to him, Huang Hu told Luffy that after Cyborg Kong became an old star, he would naturally enjoy some of the resources of the old star and would definitely get a qualitative improvement. Leap, as for how much strength Gang Gu Kong will get from this qualitative leap, Huang Hu doesn't know. After all, everyone's limit and potential are different, and it is impossible to give a conclusion.
