Pirate's Ape Fruit

Sakaski now has a headache when he thinks about recruiting soldiers. Luffy's Z Navy is currently recruiting soldiers in full swing. There are even many people who specially go to the New World to join his Z Navy. However, the recruitment situation of the Navy's soldiers. It was deserted and deserted, with no one to be seen at all. Being able to recruit more than ten sailors a day was already the best situation at present. Sometimes, not even a single sailor could be recruited for several days in a row.

Sakaski may not yet understand what the problem is, but with his intelligence, he will soon be able to understand the root of the problem.

The land of snow.

Luffy's few days of waiting finally paid off for Shirahoshi.

Of course, Luffy was not only waiting for Shirahoshi, but also Katakuri.

Katakuri, or rather the entire Charlotte family, would come to the Land of Snow, that was exactly what Luffy meant.

"Luffy, what do you want us to do here?" Katakuri asked.

"Don't worry, I won't touch you."

Luffy said with certainty: "If I wanted to attack you, there is no need to stay here until now, and I also found such an excuse to let you come here.

"Then what do you want us to do?"

As soon as Katakuri finished speaking, Luffy's hand immediately grabbed Peropelos' neck and said with a warning look on his face: "If you want to play tricks on me, let me tell you, my eyes But I can penetrate people's hearts, so I know exactly what you are thinking now."

Of course, Luffy was fooling Katakuri and the others.

Luffy just caught Peropelos's dissatisfied look for a moment, so he used the excuse now.

"Brother Peropelos"

Although Katakuri didn't plead out loud, Luffy could see how helpless he was now.

Luffy now wants Katakuri to work for him and help him, so he can take this opportunity to give him a favor.

With a flick of his hand, Luffy threw Peropelos directly against the ice wall, and said in a very affirmative tone: "Katakuri, I can see it for your sake, but now you not only have to prove Your loyalty is also to educate these guys not to seek death, but when the time comes, don’t say that I am not showing any kindness to you.”

"do not worry."

Luffy asked them to come here, and Katakuri was no fool. He could figure it out with his knees. Blackbeard must have been killed by Luffy.

In the cabin, Nami asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Why did you bring these people with ulterior motives here?"

"Of course I want him to help me work, there's no way I can support them in vain."

People like Luffy are the typical ones who always suffer losses if they can't take advantage.

It was naturally impossible for Katakuri and the others outside the ship to hear Luffy's voice.

"Brother Peropelos, I hope you won't have such thoughts in the future. Otherwise, it will not only harm you, but also us all. If we all die, then the Charlotte family It can be said that people are completely done with it.”

"I'm just not convinced"

“What can I do if I’m not convinced?”

Katakuri is the strongest among them, so his words still carry a lot of weight.

I saw Katakuri slowly saying: "Blackbeard, who we couldn't defeat, has been destroyed easily by him. I think you have all read the newspaper, and I think you have seen the death of Blackbeard now." Keep it in mind, we are not even as good as Blackbeard, so don’t have such thoughts now.”

Katakuri's words have made it very clear. When they can't defeat Luffy, they should be honest and don't have any rebellious intentions. When they have the power to surpass Luffy, they will not attack Luffy again. Not too late.

When Luffy saw Peropelos again, he knelt down directly to Luffy and asked for Luffy's forgiveness. Luffy is not a fool, and he can naturally see that Peropelous was showing off his acting skills throughout the whole process.

But in this case, Luffy could only pretend that he didn't notice.

Not long after Luffy entered the city, Katakuri and the others also followed.

When Katakuri and the others appeared in the Land of Snow, it was completely boiling.

Because he is also one of the Four Emperors recognized by the World Government, it will naturally make the entire Snow Kingdom boil.

However, the swaggering appearance of Katakuri and the others was all Luffy's intention.

Luffy just wants to create an illusion, a target that disturbs his vision. After all, there are some things that are impossible for him to show up. Even if it is like now, wearing a mask and a false identity, but as time goes by, he will definitely be The most important thing for people to see through is that Luffy can no longer stay in the Land of Snow. He has to continue traveling and at the same time make plans in the North Sea.

Katakuri can be said to be a crucial person in Luffy's layout in the North Sea.

The appearance of Katakuri, coupled with the death of Blackbeard not long ago, for some people who like to speculate, it must be that Katakuri killed Blackbeard.

After all, they are all Yonko, so they must have this ability.

As expected, the next day, Luffy had already achieved the result he wanted.

Newspapers published photos of Katakuri and the others, and even wrote in the headline that Blackbeard's death was the work of members of the New Big Mom Pirates.

However, Luffy appeared on Katakuri's ship at this time.

Katakuri is following behind Luffy.

Although Luffy is the only one here, Luffy is not afraid at all. If Katakuri and the others dare to take action, Luffy can kill them all in an instant, and at most he can find a spokesperson.

However, Katakuri was very calm.

"Luffy, do you just want others to know that we are the ones who killed Blackbeard?" Katakuri didn't think Luffy went to all the trouble to call them here just for this.

Because there is no need to be so redundant, at worst, Blackbeard's death can always remain a secret.

"Of course, I can't let you come because of this. Letting you come is just an opportunity to divert attention." Luffy's expression became very serious and said: "I want you to become the largest sea in the North Sea." Thieves, but you must act according to my rules, and you are not allowed to burn, kill or loot. If anyone violates my taboo, you should know what the outcome will be."

"Then what exactly do you want us to do?" Peropelos asked.

"The black market here is run by a man named Ancient Sage Gu Ling."

"Dragon people open a black market"

It's incredible that Luffy knows this.

After all, the impression given to others by Tianlong people is that there is no need to operate such a thing.

"Do you want us to kill this ancient spirit?" Katakuri asked with a bit of worry.

Katakuri is not a fool, and he is not Luffy. If he dares to kill a Celestial Dragon, let alone him, the entire Charlotte family will probably be hunted to the ends of the earth until they are destroyed.

"of course not."

Luffy continued: "This black market has Bailey's transaction of buying gold. I think you guys know how much I need gold, but I can't appear in this super black market every time to buy gold, so I need you to show up for me and replace me. Go buy this gold.”

"real"

Not to mention Katakuri's face full of surprise, even a conspirator like Peropelos never expected that such a huge good thing would happen.

Luffy simply showed a playful expression and smiled: "Not only are there gold for sale here, there are even a lot of Devil Fruits, so I will also ask you to buy some Devil Fruits and send them back to the new world."

When Luffy said it at the end, he said with an extremely sure look on his face: "This is your next mission and what you have to do. I have already made an agreement with Gaji, and he will provide you with enough Bailey that you need." .”

After Luffy said these words, he left neatly.

Katakuri and the others looked at each other after Luffy left.

If Luffy asked them to buy gold here and transport the gold back to the new world, it can be explained, but if he gave them access to Devil Fruits, and there were a lot of Devil Fruits, wouldn't it mean that there was no silver in this place? .

"Do you think Monkey D. Luffy will set a trap for us?" Owen said with a bad look on his face.

"This is not a trap."

Katakuri said with certainty: "We are all ability users. For us, or our physiques simply cannot possess two Devil Fruits at the same time. Even if we eat them, we are seeking death."

Dafu showed a sullen expression and said: "It seems that he just wants to use this Devil Fruit to test us. After all, with gold, we will definitely be able to withstand the test, but Devil Fruits, especially good Devil Fruits."

Since Katakuri and the others felt that this might be a test for them from Luffy, it was naturally impossible for them to touch this devil fruit.

Of course, this is also a psychological tactic of Luffy's.

As soon as Luffy came back, Nami asked with an anxious look on her face: "Luffy, you won't leave Shirahoshi here, will you?"

Luffy naturally knew what Nami and the others were worried about.

"Of course it's impossible. As long as Shirahoshi orders us to go ahead and let Neptune bring us people in Wufeng to open a road to the North Sea, why do we still need to stay here." Luffy said with a speechless face: "Even if you Don’t be afraid, I’m afraid too.”

"Lord Luffy"

Luffy didn't expect that Shirahoshi would actually run out at this time, cling to him and cry non-stop, which made Luffy feel a little guilty.

Maybe Bai Xing became more focused after crying, and soon passed out from excitement.

Luffy also had nothing to do with Shirahoshi.

"Chopper, it's okay." But Luffy still had to ask.

Chopper showed a nonchalant expression and said, "I'm just a little excited. I'll be able to recover after a short rest."

The next day, Katakuri and the others followed Luffy's instructions and headed to the ancient sage's super black market.

Katakuri and the others originally thought that Luffy was deceiving them, or trying to find a reason to test them, but they never expected that in the ancient sage's black market, Bailey actually exchanged gold for gold, and Bailey bought it. Devil Fruit.

Gold in prosperous times, ancient times in troubled times, in the current situation, Bailey's purchasing power is no longer enough. Normal people should be desperately hoarding gold. Normally, this situation is impossible, but it is here.

Katakuri is such a smart person. Naturally, the first thing he thought about was that Bailey might still be circulating among the Celestial Dragons. In other words, the Celestial Dragons felt that their rule could not be overthrown and wanted to take the opportunity to amass a large amount of wealth. .

Because Bailey's purchasing power to buy gold is several times greater than before, this is a good way to make a fortune.

But Katakuri and the others felt that this was a test for them by Luffy, not only to prove their loyalty, but also to prove their worth, so they naturally wanted to get things done.

Luffy didn't ask them to buy Devil Fruit, but bought gold first.

However, when there was still money left, Luffy asked Katakuri and the others to buy the cheapest natural devil fruit on the black market, the Swamp Fruit.

Luffy did not take the Devil Fruit away, but placed it with Katakuri and the others, and never even showed up again.

Of course, this is also a good psychological tactic.

Although Swamp Fruit is the weakest thing in the natural system, in general, it is still natural. With just this elementalization, an ordinary person can gain more powerful power after eating it, at least not armed. A lewd person can't hurt him at all.

Katakuri also understood what Pelopelos meant. As long as one of their people eats this swamp fruit, they will immediately have an effective general with a bounty of more than 200 million beli.

Katakuri is a person who can withstand the test. After playing with the swamp fruit for a while, he directly put the swamp fruit back into the original box, and then said with a very sure face: "Peroperos Brother, can't you see that this test has already begun, and we'd better do what he asks now, otherwise, we may not even be able to pass the first level."

When Peropelos thought of Luffy's face now, he couldn't help but shuddered and said, "I know, I won't say such things again."

Katakuri felt that Luffy might be spying on them now, but in fact, Luffy was sleeping now, and sleeping soundly. There was no need to worry about this, because people who are too smart sometimes Cleverness can lead to mistakes, so Luffy can take advantage of this to create a lot of obstacles for Katakuri and the others.

When Luffy woke up, Katakuri had already sent someone to ask Luffy what orders he would give them next.
