Pirate Company

"Master Pedro, this is a gift we have carefully prepared for you. I hope you like it." A majestic man, holding a wooden box similar to a treasure chest, walked up to Pedro and gave the prepared gift to into his hands.

"If I remember correctly, you should be the current Patriarch of the Sikayalu Royal Family." Pedro collected heavenly gold for the Tianlong people more than once. understood. He recognized the identity of the man in front of him at a glance. He could become the leader of many nobles in the West Sea. The gift he gave him must not be bad. Pedro was still looking forward to the gift in his hand.

"Is it a special gift?" Pedro continued to ask, "It was specially packed in a wooden box. It must be very precious. You have a heart."

"It's not precious, it's just a small gift from the nobles of our newborn land." Patriarch Sikealu replied, as if thinking of something, and then added: "For this gift, the other three seas The royal family also put in a lot of effort."

"Hearing what you said, I'm looking forward to it even more." Pedro nodded, opened the wooden box impatiently, and looked inside the first time. The royal family wandering here from all over the world has expended so much effort.

When Pedro opened the wooden box, Zhou Yixian also looked at it curiously for the first time. When he saw the gift in the wooden box, showing his true face, he couldn't help being a little surprised.

Devil Fruit?

Soon, Zhou Yixian denied this unrealistic idea in his heart. Because, the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book in his body didn't send out any hints that this thing that looks like a Devil Fruit should not be a Devil Fruit.

However, Monday was busy wondering.

The Royal Family of the Newborn Land should not dedicate a devil fruit model to Pedro, they are not bored to this extent. Besides, if it's just a model, it doesn't take too much effort for the Universal Royal Family.

Since it's not a devil fruit, and it can't be a useless model, Zhou Yixian really doesn't know what the thing that looks like a devil fruit is. In his memory, there has never been such a thing in Pirate World.

"What's inside the wooden box." Zhou Yixian asked Sura curiously.

"Such an obvious thing, do you still need to explain it?" Sura gave Zhou Yixian a blank look, and really couldn't understand why he would ask such a question, "It seems that I know it is a devil fruit. The royal family of the Land of Rebirth , so willing to please Pedro."

Sura has already experienced the rarity of devil fruit. The Devil's Tree in the Upside-Down Land seems to have countless Devil Fruits, but they are all controlled by powerful forces in the world. Even so, there will be special situations where the upside-down guard responsible for collecting the devil fruit fails to pick the ripe devil fruit in time, causing the devil fruit to fall into the sea.

However, this kind of situation is very rare. If you want to get a devil fruit in the sea in this way, it is tantamount to winning the lottery jackpot.

It is really not easy for ordinary people to obtain devil fruits. At least the Elizabeth family, under the premise of preparation, almost paid the price of their lives being wiped out.

"Nobles in the land of newborns don't have this kind of strength yet, so they can get devil fruits." Although Zhou Yixian knew the authenticity of devil fruits, he still asked questions, wanting to remind Sura.

"No, if you're willing to spend it, it's not impossible." Su La thought of a possibility and explained for Zhou Yixian: "There are many powerful forces that occasionally send a few devil fruits to the auction house. Relieve your own financial needs. Perhaps, they got the devil fruit through this way."

"I hope so." Monday replied indifferently.

It seems that the counterfeiting technology in this world has developed to an unimaginable level. However, what's the point of this? The authenticity of the devil fruit can be verified the moment the person eats it. From Zhou Yixian's point of view, this behavior of the Royal Family of the Four Seas is quite risky.

"Devil Fruit?" Pedro was stunned when he saw the contents of the wooden box. He really didn't expect the other party to be so willing.

It was rare for Pedro to speak for the first time and promised to reduce the heavenly gold. It seemed that the devil fruit really moved his heart. This gift was completely worth Pedro's use of his power.

"With this, you may not be able to avenge your shame, you boy of Elizabeth's family, just wait for me." Pedro is now full of boundless confidence in his heart. He has reason to believe that with his third-level strength and his brutal devil fruit ability, he will definitely be able to make Elizabeth's kid look good.

Even the kid from Elizabeth's family has the ability of devil fruit. Due to the gap in strength, Pedro is confident that he must be better at developing Devil Fruits. After all, the strength of ability is still inseparable from the user.

"When the time comes, just don't be disappointed." Zhou Yixian saw Pedro looking at him, and mourned for him in his heart. He was rather looking forward to what kind of wonderful expression Pedro would have when he knew that the devil fruit in his hand was fake.

"No, I think you have misunderstood a little bit." Seeing Pedro's satisfied expression, Sikealu's Patriarch quickly explained: "This thing may be a little different from Mr. Pedro's imagination. How should I put it... say yes There is nothing wrong with the devil fruit..."

"Since it's a Devil Fruit, there's no problem." Pedro originally thought there was some accident, but when he heard that the other party must have given him a Devil Fruit, he immediately felt relieved. In his opinion, other problems are not a problem. The other party gave a reassuring look, "Don't worry, I also understand your purpose, and I will not forget it."

Pedro thought that the other party was just afraid that he would not admit it after he got the devil fruit, so he interrupted the other party's words. Pedro felt that the other party's worries were completely unnecessary, and it was an easy task for him to appropriately reduce some of the heavenly gold. If you can get enough benefits and give some benefits to the other party appropriately, why not do it.

"SMILE, what you got is SMILE." The Patriarch of Sikealu didn't want the other party to misunderstand, so he blamed himself, and repeatedly emphasized a few words, "If you are a little unfamiliar with this name, there is another name, I think you must I can understand. The thing that looks like a devil fruit in the master's hand is actually a man-made devil fruit... That's why I said that it is not wrong to say that it is a devil fruit."

Hearing the explanation from the Sikealu family, Zhou Yixian suddenly realized that it was a man-made devil fruit. No wonder the devil fruit illustration book in his body did not issue any relevant reminders. Reminiscing for a while, Zhou Yixian remembered that SMILE seems to be a kind of man-made devil fruit in the animal department.

SMILE was jointly created by Doflamingo and the former scientist of the Navy Headquarters Science Corps, M. Caesar Courant, using the raw material SAD cultivated by the little humans to create an artificial devil fruit of animal origin.

However, this devil fruit has a fatal flaw. Not every man-made devil fruit can give the user the ability to obtain the devil fruit. There is only a very small chance that the user can gain the devil fruit ability. Moreover, those who fail to take it will permanently lose other expressions and can only smile.

This is also the reason why artificial devil fruit is called SMILE. Even without this flaw, Zhou Yixian is quite unimpressed with man-made devil fruits. Even if one successfully acquires the ability of a devil fruit, it cannot change its form like a real animal devil fruit, and can only maintain the form of a monster. It is also quite weak. If the user uses the artificial devil fruit ability for too long, he will experience serious physical exertion. This is quite fatal in battle.

"SMILE...artificial devil fruit?" Pedro confirmed.

"Yes, artificial devil fruit, artificial animal devil fruit." The affirmative tone of Patriarch Sikealu broke Pedro's last illusion, and then said: "If you want to get a real devil fruit, rely on our strength , it is already impossible. Therefore, we can only buy an artificial devil fruit through Bucky Express Company. Even so, we paid a considerable price."

Bucky Express?

Zhou Yixian heard a familiar word again. Logically, it is already a hundred years after Luffy became the One Piece. Unexpectedly, Bucky Express still exists. Zhou Yixian doesn't think that Bucky can have such a long lifespan. He can only say that Bucky is not as simple as imagined. It is quite good that the power he created lasted for such a long time in Pirate World.

"The man-made devil fruit has developed to such an extent that it can almost be confused with the real one." Zhou Yixian sighed, if Patriarch Sikealu didn't say it, people who don't know about devil fruit might believe it.

However, with Pedro's identity, although his strength is a little weaker, he must have some knowledge. Based on this, it should be the reason why Patriarch Sikealu would tell the truth.

"It turned out to be a man-made devil fruit. I thought it was a devil fruit." Sura said with a little regret.

"How hard it is to get real devil fruits, don't you know?" Zhou Yixian didn't understand what Sura was regretting. "Man-made devil fruits are also good, just look at their eyes."

"It seems to be the same. After all, there are only a few lucky people." Sura glanced at the crowd behind him, and found that many of them were around the same age as Zhou Yixian. Devil Fruit.

Possessing a devil fruit, the ability to obtain a devil fruit, can greatly enhance one's own strength without any effort, who would not want it. As for the price of eating the man-made devil fruit, they can't think about it. In their view, as long as they can increase their strength, there is nothing to pay for it.
