Pirates: Rush to the Peak

"Captain, I told them."

Ryan said as he handed over the Den Den Mushi.

"Okay, we know where you are. Wait there and someone will be there soon."

The Five Elder Stars hung up the Den Den Mushi after they finished speaking.

Kuro was left alone, staring at the Den Den Mushi in a daze.

Is the devil fruit that the Five Elders are talking about the same one as Punk Hazard?

If not, could it be that that traitor Vegapunk developed more than one?

No, you can't do that. Don't you just make a fruit, publicize it as a failure, and then stop doing it if it's not successful?

So if it was, the newspapers reported, that Punk Hazard's gas had leaked, how did he retrieve it?

Kuro really couldn't figure it out. Was this fruit an artificial mythical beast? This was related to his own future.

Just as Kuro's brain was working at full speed and thinking hard, a big bird flew over from the distant sea, holding a box in its claws.

The big bird was in mid-air, flying towards the black ship at a very fast speed.

"Whoosh!"

The big bird flew in front of the boat and transformed itself into a man wearing a white suit and a mask.

"Excuse me, which one is Mr. Craw?"

Behind the mask was a man's voice, and the first thing he said was to look for Kuro.

"I am, you are? What's your CP?"

Kuro walked forward and looked at the man in the white mask and asked.

"No comment, this is the devil fruit that the Five Elders asked me to pass on to you."

The man in the white mask spoke in a cold tone and threw a box in his hand to Kuro.

"Wait a minute, I want to ask, where are you from?"

"No comment, just open it and take a look. If there's nothing else, I'll leave."

"Wait, wait, let me take a look first."

After Crow finished speaking, he opened the box, and inside was an apple-shaped fruit, which was blue-purple in color, and the fruit was covered with circles.

This should be it. It looks exactly the same as in the cartoon.

"I'll just ask you a question, and you can leave once you answer it. Did you fly here from Punk Hazard?"

Kuro asked and looked into the eyes of the white masked man. When he mentioned Punk Hazard, the masked man's eyes flashed.

"Yes."

After the masked man finished speaking, he transformed into a bald eagle, then spread his wings and flew into the air, disappearing in a moment.

After the masked man left, Kuro held the devil fruit and the crew surrounded him.

"Captain, is this the devil fruit the World Government was talking about?"

"Captain, what kind of fruit is this?"

"Captain, do you want to eat?"

Kuro listened to the crew members' chatter and felt a little confused.

I read in the newspaper that there was no hope of getting this fruit, and I could only wait for Caesar to escape from prison and then go get it myself.

Unexpectedly, it was delivered to me the next second, but I was not sure if it was the one I wanted.

At this time, I really want a cheat code, even if it can only detect item information.

"Yes, this is the one the Five Elders mentioned. I won't know for sure what it is until I eat it."

Kuro said as he looked at the devil fruit in his hand.

"Ryan, I want to tell you something. If anything happens to me after I eat this fruit, this pirate group will be handed over to you."

"With the power of your fruit, plus the training method I taught you, three years will be enough for you to become famous in this ocean."

Ryan looked solemn after hearing this.

"Captain, do you mean there might be something wrong with this fruit?"

"This is too problematic. This fruit was made by humans, and that traitor announced to the public that this fruit was a failure. Do you think there is a problem with this?"

"Then Captain, why don't you just not eat yet?"

"But I can't hold my fart. If I don't eat the food, I'll feel uncomfortable all over."

"Okay, don't worry about it, Ryan, remember what I said."

"I'll remember it, Captain! I will definitely keep the reputation of the Kuro Pirates."

Looking at Ryan with a serious face, Kuro nodded with relief.

Then he opened his mouth and ate the devil fruit in his hand.

"Hmm, huh? Hmm!"

"What's wrong, Captain? Is it poisonous?"

"No, I thought it would taste terrible, but it turned out to be no different from an apple."

Kuro ate all the fruit in just a few bites.

Then wait quietly for the ability to manifest.

"Huh? Why not? The Five Elders wouldn't try to trick me with an apple, would they?"

As soon as Kuro finished speaking, he felt a force running around in his body, and then spread to all parts of his body.

"Uhhhhhh!"

Starting from Kuro's hands, his hands swelled and grew larger, instantly turning into dragon claws. Kuro's body also continued to expand and lengthen, and then turned into a dragon's body. His head swelled and twisted, and finally turned into a dragon's head!

"hold head high!!!"

Kuro felt the power running through his body and he opened his mouth and shouted, a dragon roar came out of his mouth. With a kick of his legs, his lower body turned into a dragon's tail!

The crew members saw that their captain had turned into a giant dragon floating in the air, a hundred meters long, covered with blood-red scales and with golden dragon horns on its head!

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

"hurricane!"

Kuro roared! This was the swelling feeling brought by his power. Then he directly set off a hurricane in the air, violently sweeping the surrounding seawater.

"Captain! Too strong! Hahahaha"

"The captain has now become a real monster."

"Ahhhh!"

"Skyfire!"

Kuro ignored the shouts of the crew members. Now he just wanted to release all this power.

Then a ball of fire appeared in Kuro's mouth. It kept gathering and growing. When it gathered to the extreme, it sprayed towards the distant sea.

“Buzz buzz buzz—boom boom boom!!!”

The pillar of fire hit the sea directly, and then with a loud bang, a big hole was blasted out in the sea.

At the bottom of the big cave, you can see that the soil has been burned into magma. The area around the cave is full of water vapor formed by evaporation by the heat. Then the sea water pours back into the cave, causing another loud noise.

"Hahaha! That's it!"

Kuro grinned, and his claws produced a cloud of flames. Kuro grabbed the flames and the whole dragon began to fly up.

ku ku ku ku ku.

"Hahaha, my bet was right!"

Kuro played around in the sky for a while, and then quickly familiarized himself with the ability of the fruit based on the moves developed by Teacher Gai.

"Thunder!"

"Zizzi—boom!"

Kuro caught a bolt of lightning in his hand and threw it into the sea.

"boom!"

The sea exploded with a loud bang, and then a bunch of steaming sea fish floated on the sea surface, and even a sea king with a bull's head exploded.

"Hahaha, is this the strength of Teacher Kai? It's too strong!"

After Kuro had enough fun, he began to try to transform into human-beast form. As the entire dragon body was compressed little by little, Kuro could clearly feel that the strength of his entire body was increasing rapidly.
