The Lord of the Underworld of Pirates

after a while

Robin's expression was a little strange.

"This is actually a sealed place, and according to the description, the so-called vampire died here."

Robin began to interpret the meaning of the text for the two of them.

Thousands of years ago, demons were rampant in the world. A Western Buddha appeared in the world, and a mighty campaign to eradicate the demons began.

The previous generation of vampire fruit users lived for 500 years with their abilities, and they also created a kingdom that fed on captive humans.

The Buddha came to seduce the demon and had a fierce duel with the vampire. In the end, the vampire was defeated and hurriedly fled to the cave where he had gained the power of the vampire. He tried to kill the Buddha with the power of billions of bats.

But in the end, the vampire was killed by him, and Buddha even used special means to seal the vampire's ability into a fruit.

This place was sealed by a barrier set up by the Buddha.

The last paragraph of the text is to advise those who come later not to break the barrier easily. The ability of a vampire can easily allow people to gain abilities and even achieve immortality. People with weak will are extremely easy to be affected by the will.

"Then that means the vampire fruit is indeed here!"

As for the Buddha's last words of caution, Brooke isn't too worried.

Others gain strength because they get the fruit, but the Red Earl was already the world's top combat power, and it remains the same no matter how he improves.

As for immortality, there is so much blood of bad guys, you can suck it as you like. Even if the Red Earl falls later, Brooke himself will still be there!

Brooke doesn't think he can die easily, and having another immortal person to restrain each other may be a good thing for this world.

"The Buddha from thousands of years ago? Couldn't he be a devil fruit user?"

Brooke speculated, and his speculation also caught Robin's attention. She was unsure:

"Are you talking about the fruit from Buddha's Warring States Period? It is indeed possible."

"Yo ho ho ho... Maybe in the world a thousand years ago, some so-called gods were just powerful ability users."

Brooke laughed at himself, after all, he himself had already made an act of calling himself a god.

The Red Earl touched the rock wall blocking their way forward and said without paying much attention:

"It doesn't matter. It seems that the rock wall in front of us is the last barrier."

"Do you need me to clear the way for you?"

"Haha... This level can't stop me from moving forward."

The Red Earl took a step forward, while Brooke and Robin took a step back.

Calm down, gather your strength, and strike out with a sword quickly.

Brooke felt a flash of red light, and the huge steel rock wall was cut off by the Red Earl.

boom!

The rock wall fell, making a loud noise in this narrow space. When the smoke gradually dispersed, the black cave had been opened.

"Let's go!"

The three of them continued to move forward, and within a moment, the three of them arrived at a large hall.

"I didn't expect that there would be a palace in such a ghost place."

Brooke looked around and complained.

This underground palace has a strong smell of history, and all three of them noticed the traces of battles in this underground palace, which were very tragic.

The Red Earl noticed that there was a black box on the only intact seat in the palace, and he walked directly towards the seat.

The Red Earl's movements attracted Brooke's attention, and he followed the Red Earl's steps.

Robin seems to be more interested in this building, which shows her vocation as an archaeologist to study ancient times.

This is a black wooden box with embroidered patterns. It is hard to imagine that a wooden product can be preserved for such a long time.

"It seems that the so-called vampire fruit is here."

The Red Earl opened the wooden box without any hesitation. With Brooke's ability to predict the future, he did not notice any crisis in the future.

A blood-red apple-shaped fruit with patterns was placed quietly in the box.

"Devil Fruit is indeed the most magical thing. If placed in a box, it can be immortal for thousands of years."

Brooke sighed.

"Lite, eat it and gain the power to regain your youth. Come with me to compete with the strong men of this era."

The Red Earl stared at the fruit in front of him. This fruit exuded an alluring aura, and the Red Earl felt a sense of blood from it.

Although the strong men of the previous era did not rely on this kind of thing to become famous, and the Red Earl also hated this kind of thing, at this time, he hated his old body even more.

He stretched out his right hand to pick up the devil fruit in front of him, put it to his mouth, and took a big bite.

Click!

It's as crisp as an apple, but tastes as bad as shit.

After taking a bite, the Red Earl threw away the remaining Devil Fruit.

"It's unpalatable!"

The Red Earl's words resonated with the other two.

"really!"

"Well...there's nothing tastier than this!"

Ignoring the two people's complaints, the Red Earl closed his eyes and began to appreciate the abilities brought by this Devil Fruit.

A powerful thought was introduced into the Red Earl's brain, but it was immediately tamed by the Red Earl. The greed for blood that had just arisen was immediately crushed by the Red Earl. This is the difference between a strong man eating the fruit.

Not only is it not bound by the animal nature, it can also be used in reverse.

Seeing the Red Count open his eyes, Brooke immediately asked:

"Well, it's that fruit."

The Red Earl nodded and secretly activated his ability. His four teeth became elongated, and above his nose, he transformed into a half-beast mode with bat characteristics.

The Red Earl began to talk about the power brought by the fruit.

"My eyesight has become stronger, and it is not affected at all in this dark environment."

"My hearing has reached an incredible level. Even if I don't rely on my knowledge, I can hear people talking in the town."

Closing his eyes, Red Count used special ultrasound to hear the conversations of the townspeople in the distant town. He could even hear clearly the sounds made by the sailors when they were doing some indescribable things.

Suppressing this special hearing, the Red Earl began to experiment with his nose.

"The capabilities of the nose have also been enhanced."

"I could feel the breath of the bats outside and had a feeling that I could control them."

"In this way, my domineering power will be further enhanced."

Brooke was very envious. It took him more than ten years to activate the Devil Fruit after he ate it, and it took even more decades for it to take effect.

"What a difference between people!"

The Red Count looked at his arms again. The front ends of his arms turned into sharp claws, and the back ends of his arms were made of transparent films. It seemed that all he needed to do to fly was open his arms and vibrate his wings.

"This... what's the strength, what's the strength of the phantom beast species... people will laugh at you if you use these wings."

Brooke complained without any scruples, and Brooke's words made the Red Earl deeply agree.

If he relied on such wings to fly, the Red Earl might as well use his original body.

"Normally speaking, the devil fruits of the animal-type fantasy beasts all have a special power, such as the blue flame of the phoenix, the attack wave of the giant Buddha, the thunder and lightning of the Kui Niu, and the vampire's."

Brooke asked directly.

The Red Earl felt his body again, and after studying it for a moment, he understood what his special power was.

"blood!"

"I can get power from blood, and I can also use blood to accomplish some incredible things."

The Red Earl has already had the idea of ​​using the blood to transform his body. Unfortunately, his body's Qi and blood are not strong at this time, so he is not able to achieve this level.

"What about blood? This won't do anything for me, because I'm already dead with only bones left!"

Brooke told a skeleton joke. Seeing that neither of them laughed, he suggested leaving here.

Upon arriving at the hotel, the Red Earl asked Brooke for a contest, but Brooke refused because the Red Earl had not yet returned to his peak.

There are no bad people here, and the Red Earl cannot borrow blood to return to his youth. After some consideration, the Red Earl can only give up temporarily.

He wanted to show the people he admired at his peak state.

Brook also understands that this contest is inevitable, and he is also looking forward to something.

Since they did not bring their own ship this time, if they want to leave the island, they must still take a merchant ship, and the merchant ship will take another two days, which means that Brooke and the others will need to stay here for two more days. .

This short journey also gave the Underworld Pirates another ability user.

Animal-type bat fruit, phantom beast species, and vampire form.
