The Worst Fruit Among Pirates

“This trip to Sky Island was very relaxing,”

Amid the farewells from the residents of Dressrosa, the Don Quixote family headed towards the King's Heights.

Indeed, let alone the empty island at this time, even Enel who eats the Thunder Fruit in the future will not pose much of a threat to the battle-hardened Rossi.

Although the Thunder Fruit is powerful and Enel's vision is good, with Rossi's domineering level, it is not difficult to kill Enel with a knife at close range.

"Diamanti has obtained a huge amount of gold, and her strength has greatly increased."

"Recruited the mechanic Eniro, and also acquired a top-notch natural devil fruit."

It can be said that the harvest is not cheap,

"Hey, it would be great if I could spit out my devil fruit."

After hearing that Rossi had acquired the 'Thunder Fruit', Torebol's whole person exuded an aura of 'mourning'.

Pika's Stone Fruit can create an 800-meter giant statue, Diamanti can control various golden creations, and after Dover's Thread Fruit awakens, it can turn the earth into a sea of ​​threads.

In comparison, his slime fruit is——

"You're dreaming,"

Vergo next to him hit him without hesitation.

"If the fruit can be replaced, this fruit should also be given to Rosie. Isn't it a waste to give it to you?"

"However, although···"

"Fufufu, don't say this, the fruit is just a kind of power."

The leader, Dover, had his hands in his pockets and was wearing a crisp suit and a pink feathered coat. He was handsome with a hint of evil charm.

"Rosie can easily defeat you even if she doesn't use her fruit power."

"Although the Silence Fruit is inconspicuous, it's not like you haven't tried it before when you are blocked from seeing and hearing the Haki in battle."

When strong men fight, domineering plays a very important role.

Once you are blocked from seeing and hearing, not to mention becoming blind on the spot, your reaction will immediately slow down a notch.

Rossi was only able to fight back and forth with strong men like Red Earl and Kaido, and the Silence Fruit was indispensable. The so-called fruit exchange was just a joke.

"That's right, Rosie."

Dover tilted his head and looked at Rossi beside him.

"We have an old friend visiting us. Don't use the Haki of Knowledge. Guess who it is?"

old friend?

To be called that, and to say it from Dover's mouth, could it be that——

----

King's Heights,

in the palace.

"Moohahaha, long time no see!"

Facing the tauren warrior striding towards him, Rossi smiled and opened his arms.

"It's been a long time indeed, Roddy. Karuchiu!"

Snapped,

He hugged Roddy, a muscular tauren warrior, as if the hairs of a steel brush were scratching across his face.Rosie turned to look at the other side, a sports girl with long gray hair hanging down to her waist and a pair of horse ears.

"Long time no see, little chestnut hat."

贴，

The horse-eared girl stood on tiptoes and rubbed her cheek gently against Rosie's face. The warmth stunned Rosie.

"Karuchiu~~Long time no see, Rosinandi."

Without using his Haki, Rossi had already guessed that the visitors were Rody, a tauren warrior from the fur tribe, and Oguri Hat, a horse-eared girl.

Only these two fur tribe warriors who fought together when the Don Quixote family first entered the Grand Line could be the 'old friends' that Dover spoke of.

"Originally, I wanted to go to Zuowu to play with you, but the direction of your life paper is erratic, and the family has been turbulent and fighting with enemies from all walks of life, so I haven't taken the time yet."

Facing Rosie's explanation, the horse-eared girl shook her head, her long gray hair swaying from side to side behind her.

"It's us,"

"After returning the children who were abducted by Gameno to Zou, the king was too old and was unable to do what he could. In recent years, many children in Zou have been abducted by slave traders."

"So Roddy and I simply united with several members of the 'patrol team' and went to sea again to rescue these tribesmen."

Oguri Hat explained that with the strength of the two of them, and the members of the "Patrol Team" who are strong masters of domineering and "electricity", they have rescued many children of the fur tribe over the years, and also destroyed a large number of children. Slave-catching pirates.

"Because of our activity, the prices of our people in the slave market have skyrocketed. Damn it!!"

The tauren warrior Rody patted the bull's horn in annoyance, not knowing how to describe his mood for a moment.

Because of the rising prices, more pirates joined the ranks of catching fur tribes.Although Zou can move in the sea and the strength of all the fur tribe members, they cannot withstand the harassment day and night by the strongest among humans.

Moreover, there are many people with strange abilities among them. In addition, these pirates specifically target women and children, so the fur tribe can be said to be very difficult to guard against.

The main reason is that the fur tribe does not have a truly strong person who can "control the situation".

Oguri Hat and Roddy are already considered masters among the fur tribe. After improving in battle in the past few years, their strength is only about 3 million bounty. It is very difficult to meet the leader of a big force or a top-notch senior cadre. .

"We came to you this time because we have something to ask for."

"Sit down and say,"

When old friends meet, Rossi naturally wants to hear their problems.

----

"Pirates' Feast?"

"Yes, this is the New World's quadrennial pirate trading and auction conference."

Everyone in the Don Quixote family gathered together and listened carefully to the explanation of the horse-eared girl Oli Hat:

"Not all pirates have their own channels for selling dirt, and some 'goods' are not easy to sell, so pirates also need a trading platform."

This is normal. Pirates rob merchants. It may be a ship of food or a ship of arms, but more often it is goods that they cannot use: such as a ship of metal parts, a ship of porcelain, or even a ship of ore. ··

These things, you say, are worthless. Once they are shipped to where they are needed, huge profits will immediately be made.

But for pirates, it cannot be eaten or used, and it cannot be used as money to buy things. Should it be buried in the ground?

The scene of robbing a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry only exists in stories. Under normal circumstances, that idiot would go out to sea with a large amount of gold and silver?

Diamanti next to her raised her head.

That's right, it's right here!

"Ahem, in short, the so-called 'Pirate Festival' is just such a day for pirates to trade."

The Maltese girl who accidentally injured Diamanti continued to explain:

Those goods that are not easy to sell, as well as things that you cannot use, will be traded with each other at the 'Pirate Feast'. At the same time, plundering from each other is prohibited during the transaction, so it attracts a large number of maritime merchants who pick up missing items.

Many countries will even send their own troops disguised as 'pirate groups' to participate: with the cultural level of the pirates and their eagerness to get rid of the situation, many precious goods can be bought here at cabbage prices.

"And the place of transaction is Beehive Island."

As this place name came out of Xiaoli Mao's mouth, everyone suddenly understood.

Beehive Island, also known as 'Pirates' Paradise', is the birthplace of the pirate game and can be said to be an iconic place among pirates.

The previous owner of Beehive Island was called Rocks D. Jiback!

A true ceiling-level madman, he took the young Whitebeard, Charlotte Lingling, Golden Lion Shiji, Captain John, and the newly adult Kaido under his command to form the strongest pirate group on the sea.

Although they were defeated by the joint efforts of Garp and Roger, looking at the entire sea, who else can make the Pirate King and the Navy Hero join forces?

"And after the Rocks Pirates fell apart,"

Rosie took over the topic of Oguri Hat,

"The one who occupies Beehive Island now is the legendary pirate 'Wang Zhi'!"

Wang Zhi, born in the Flower Kingdom of the West Sea, is also a legendary strongman with a reputation throughout the new world. He also once joined the Rocks Pirates.

After Rocks died, Wang Zhi immediately occupied Beehive Island and made it his territory.

"Going to trade on that legendary pirate's territory? It is indeed a place where everyone can feel at ease."

With Wang Zhi's strength, he could completely control the situation.

Although Rossi knew that Wang Zhi would be overturned by Blackbeard in 20 years and become a stepping stone for Teach.However, one of the deserters, Wang Kebi, also made a lot of contributions by mistake, and even pretended to take the credit, so that he could be promoted.

And 20 years later...

Even Whitebeard was overturned by a car, and Wang Zhi was probably injured, so it's not surprising that he became a stepping stone.

But the current Wang Zhi is not so easy to deal with. At least when he occupied Beehive Island 18 years ago, White Beard, Golden Lion, and Charlotte Lingling didn't say anything.

With the temper of these people, if they didn't have the same strength, they would have beaten them to death long ago!

Just like another 'Captain John' who escaped with the treasure and was severely injured, died in the internal strife of his own men and became a joke to the entire sea.

"In other words, your fur-tribe children were taken to Beehive Island for auction?"

"Yes,"

Oguri Hat and Roddy nodded. If they had no other choice, they would not have approached the Don Quixote family, Rossi and Dover.

The strength of the fur tribe is pretty good, but it is nothing compared to the legendary One Piece.

As for using the method of 'buying' to save people, Zuowu basically lives in a barter society and doesn't even have the concept of money. Where did Pele come from to redeem people?

"I'm sorry for bringing you into this."

"Hahahaha, weren't we once partners fighting side by side?"

Rosie patted the horse-eared girl on the shoulder,

"Since it is our own matter, of course we will not sit idly by. Dover——"

Facing Rossi who turned to look at him, Dover pushed up his red sunglasses.

"Fufufu, of course."

"——The Don Quixote family will leave two places for you on the ship. This is what I said."

Yes, Dover did say this back then.Without Oguri Hat and Rody, the Don Quixote family almost couldn't hold on when they faced the 'Shichibukai' Gamenio.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's involved or not, it's too foreign."

Now that he was domineering and skilled, Torebol, who still had no expression on his face, pressed his bowler hat when he faced the Minotaur warrior 'Karuchu'.

"If it weren't for you, there would probably be several fewer people in this hall."

These words made a person with the golden fruit ability who was poisoned and almost died at that time froze.

Another inexplicable shooting,

"Now that the family's strength has grown, I don't know how much. Even the legendary pirates can't touch it."

"Problems that can be solved with money are not problems."

Rosie, who had just moved to a golden city from an empty island, was extremely wealthy.

"There is no need to fight, just find the seller and knock him unconscious with money."

"Hey hey~~"

Torebol smiled at this.

"Rossi, you have such a wonderful idea. It is precisely because we are super rich now, so... and based on the experience that you will fight wherever you go, we should actively prepare for the war."

Faced with Torebol's words, everyone in the hall nodded, and even Dover gave the order directly.

"That's it, Cyrus and Gary will stay in Dressrosa."

"Everyone else is dispatched to see the 'Legendary Pirate' Wang Zhi's style."

"Hey, hey, hey, why do you all agree that I will go there and beat you there..."

Although Rossi complained like this, he touched his chin and recalled it carefully, and found that he was indeed either fighting or on the way to fight.This time when I go to Beehive Island, I’m afraid—

Okay, let's see how powerful that 'Wang Zhi' is!

Thinking of this, Rossi couldn't help but get excited.
