One Piece Talk King, starting with a review of devil fruits

Xie has liked to play with puppets since he was a child. Because of his poor family background, he and his parents performed outside. His family are all famous puppeteers in the local area.

The puppets manipulated by these puppeteers will have a thin line on their fingers that is invisible to ordinary people. They use their fingers flexibly to make the puppets move in front of the audience.

Xie's talent for manipulating puppets is far better than their parents. Two adults can only manipulate five puppets at most to perform behind the scenes with two fingers connected to one puppet.

At a young age, he can use ten fingers to manipulate puppets vividly, making the audience in the audience think that these puppets have life, and his family can get a lot of bounties for this.

Until the day when he was ten years old, his parents went out to buy things in time, and then never came back. He waited and waited for the two close relatives but still did not show up.

He had a bad premonition in his heart. He went out to look for them on an empty stomach the next day. It took him less than an hour to find his parents, but they could no longer move and lay on the ground as cold corpses.

This puppet master couple was very unlucky. When they went to the market to purchase supplies, they encountered a fight between pirates and the navy. Scorpion's mother became a hostage of the pirates.

The farther the branch base is from the navy headquarters, the worse the quality of the soldiers is. This is a strong correlation. Some poor people entered the navy system and became slaves of the navy commander, washing clothes, cooking, farming and fishing for the commander's family.

Another part of the ruffians entered the navy system and further corrupted the navy's military discipline, from the bottom to the top. Without the supervision of the upper level, justice is just a decoration, and only interests and wealth are eternal.

Scorpion's mother did not receive any rescue. The navy sergeant who led the team directly ordered to shoot her and the pirates together. The grassroots navy beside the sergeant would not question the commander's order.

The moment more than a dozen guns pulled the trigger, Scorpion's mother and the pirate were shot on the spot. Scorpion's father wanted to stop all this, but he was also beaten into a pirate after the incident.

Scorpion was shot in the head by the naval sergeant leading the team. The next day, when he came here, he saw the bodies of his parents being loaded onto a bullock cart by the neighbors.

The navy did not clean up the scene after killing people, and would not compensate for the damage to the surrounding environment. The grassroots soldiers were often deducted from their salaries and blood. It was already quite good to be able to eat a full meal in the sub-base. It was already a great favor for this town that they did not go to the town restaurant to eat a free meal.

Scorpion followed the bullock cart to the outskirts of the town and saw with his own eyes that the group of adults dug a big pit, threw more than a dozen bodies into the pit, and then buried them with soil.

Not throwing these bodies directly into the sea to feed the fish is already a kind heart of the people in the town. There are mass graves nearby, and at least hundreds of people have been buried.

Everyone in the town knows this child. They can only sigh at the fate that Scorpion will face next. What kind of substantial help is needed? For these poor people who rely on the sea for food, one more mouth can probably bankrupt a family.

"Alas, what a poor child. I guess the death of his parents scared him so much that he even forgot to cry."

"Every time his family goes out to sea to earn money outside the island, they can probably save a little. Let's keep an eye on him and don't let some bad guys rob the child's money."

The neighbors in the town can't provide food for Scorpion to grow up, but they can still do this little thing of not letting outsiders disturb him. Grassroots mutual assistance can only go so far.

With an expressionless face, Scorpion walked back to his home. People around him didn't know what he was thinking. As he walked, the child's blood was lost and his tender feet were worn out. Even so, the boy didn't show any expression.

He stayed at home alone, didn't want to eat or drink water. Outsiders would not care about a weird child who lost his parents, but Scorpion was a human being after all, and he couldn't pretend to be a puppet for his whole life.

The deterioration of his body functions made him more and more eager to eat. Driven by the instinct of survival, he began to look for edible things in the house and search for the relics left by his parents.

Soon a locked wooden box caught the child's attention. Because he couldn't find the key, he could only use the most violent method, lifting the box high and throwing it heavily on the ground. After a few falls, the box was overwhelmed and a fruit-like object rolled out.

Scorpion found something edible and ate the fruit without thinking much. Maybe the fruit had been in the box for too long, so the taste was not very good, but it was more juicy and meaty.

The whole fruit made Scorpion's belly round. Since that day, the boy no longer needed to eat or drink water, or even breathe fresh air, because he ate the fruit, which was the superhuman puppet fruit.

The puppet fruit turned Scorpion into a puppet man, which was the result he had dreamed of. As a puppet, he no longer had to beBound by flesh and blood, Scorpion can even transform himself to make the original physical defects more perfect.

Scorpion's fruit ability is quite terrifying. Any creature touched by him will lose the ability to think and become an ordinary puppet.

Ordinary puppets have the ability to move and can understand the most basic commands of the puppeteer. When these puppets touch other humans, they will also transform the touched people into ordinary puppets.

It was for this reason that in less than a day, there was not even a breathing animal left in the whole town. All of them became Scorpion's ordinary puppets. The island that was originally full of vitality turned into a dead puppet town overnight.

In order to retaliate against the navy, Scorpion ordered these ordinary puppets that looked like humans to surround and attack the navy's sub-base. Because of the perverted effect of the puppet fruit, this sub-base soon lost contact with the navy headquarters, and all the navy members here became ordinary puppets.

Ordinary puppets are stiff and can't speak, but Scorpion likes quietness very much. There is a group of puppets around him to take care of his life, clean his room, make his bed, clean the yard, etc.

Although these ordinary puppets work slowly and clumsily, Scorpion prefers to stay with these puppets who are neither human nor ghost compared to the cunning and difficult to get along with humans.

However, such a carefree life will eventually be exposed one day. The Navy's overseas branch base has been disconnected from the Navy headquarters for a long time, and the loss of contact has lasted for several months.

The Navy headquarters sent the Navy Vice Admiral of the headquarters to cross the Grand Line and enter the waters here. After all, they are people from the headquarters, and they dare not enter rashly when the branch base is in trouble.

Moreover, there is no trace of artillery coverage on the periphery of the branch base, which does not look like it has been captured by pirates. The navy standing guard outside the base looks very strange.

Standing guard for a long time under the scorching sun, there is no sweating discomfort. Standing in one action for a day, there is no change.

After a day, the Navy Vice Admiral figured out the situation here. Whether it is officers or grassroots soldiers, the navy of the branch base, are affected by some kind of force and become puppets that cannot speak, and are placed at work as usual.

And this process is irreversible. After humans become puppets, puppets cannot turn back into humans.
