March, the Beihai in 1509, Haiyuan Calendar.

The night is already deep, and the bright moon hangs high, sprinkling soft light like silver gauze.

On a fishing boat, the hunched and exhausted fisherman put away the fishing nets and dragged them to the deck to check whether there were any precious fish to catch.

However, the harvest is only a bunch of the most ordinary fish. This trip can make at most hard money.

"What's this?"

The fishermen flipped through the pile of fish and picked up a strange fruit.

The fruit is bright red all over, shaped like a love heart, and has spiral patterns on its surface.

"This... doesn't seem like something to eat."

The fishermen took the fruit back to the room and placed it on the head of the bed, all of which were regarded as souvenirs.

A few hours later, it was getting dark and the fishermen turned the bow of the boat and were about to return.

"The fish caught this time can probably be sold..."

The fishermen were consciously calculating the harvest of this trip to sea, and suddenly, the whistle of shells came from their ears.

boom!

The bow of the ship was directly blown to pieces. The fishermen were shocked and rushed out of the cabin. They saw a ship with a pirate flag flying towards this side.

"Pirate! It's over!"

The fisherman showed a look of despair on his face. How could his small broken boat pass through the pirate ship quickly?

You should know that pirate ships are given priority in speed and firepower are followed. Some pirate ships sail at full speed, and even the navy's warships cannot catch up.

Just half an hour later, the fishing boat was caught up, and the fisherman was shot to death by a bald pirate standing on the pirate ship.

Obviously, the pirate did not use the Hokkien pistol, and was still using the "drought" weapons left over from the previous generation.

"hey-hey."

The bald pirate had a fat face and a fierce appearance. After killing someone, he blew his muzzle, showed a smug smile, and said, "Let's go, next one."

The younger brother beside him asked, "Boss, don't you need to deal with the spoils?"

The bald man said disdainfully: "It's just a fishing boat. Do we want to bring a boat of fish back and sell it?"

It can be seen that the reason why this guy killed people was simply for fun.

The younger brother said angrily: "At least it's worth some money, and there are so many treasures in the sea, maybe there will be any treasures on this ship?"

The bald man tsk and said, "Then drag the boat over and find out if there is anything good."

After some search, the pirates returned to the pirate ship cursingly.

"What a waste of time! There is really only one boat of fish."

"It makes me smell like fishy."

"Next time I meet such a poor man, just sank the ship."

The bald man laughed and said, "I'm right? Like this...hey! Jem! What are you holding in your hand? Don't eat it first!"

The pirate named Jem was stunned, closed his mouth, then ran to the boss and presented the fruit in his hand.

"Boss, do you want it?"

The bald man snatched the fruit with a bright look and murmured: "This is... kidding, it's just a random attack on a fishing boat, but he actually encountered such a treasure?"

The younger brothers were stunned, and Jem asked in confusion: "Boss, is this thing a treasure?"

The bald man said excitedly: "Ah, an absolute treasure! This is the legendary devil fruit that can bring people super powers! It's not wrong, I have seen something similar at auction with my own eyes!"

Jem suddenly felt very regretful and would have eaten it secretly if he had known it.

"That, boss, this fruit..."

The bald man looked solemn and said, "Don't think about it, I'm going to sell it!"

Everyone exclaimed, "Sell?"

The bald man played with the devil fruit and laughed: "Yes, sell it! You don't know that there is a big man in the Great Way who is purchasing the devil fruit at a high price. He is said to be preparing to find a powerful fruit for his unborn son to eat. The acquisition reserve price has soared to 500 million Bailey, five times that of the previous few years!"

The bald man said, his voice trembling. Five hundred million Baileys are definitely not bad. As long as he can sell them, he can retire directly.

He knew how many tricks he had, wasn’t he going to sea just for money? Could it be that he really wanted to dominate the sea or look for the big secret treasure that One Piece once said?

There are rumors on the sea now that the great secret treasure actually does not exist at all, and ONE PIECE or something is just Roger's rash statement.

Amid the jealous and coveted eyes of many pirates, the bald man held the devil fruit close to his body, then waved his hand: "Return!"

The first Jem who found the devil fruit flashed for a moment, and a vicious flame suddenly emerged in his heart.

"It was clearly found by me! Why...has it...had aversion!"

......

On Sky Island, Odo is having a video call with the big guys in the dark world.

"I have offered a high price of 500 million yuan. No one is higher than me, right? But what's the result?"

Stussi laughed and said, "Don't be angry, Your Majesty, the devil's fruit has no fixed source of output. Whether or not you can acquire such secret treasures at sea depends entirely on luck."

Morgens said: "Kaido and Lingling also have a great demand for the devil fruit. The Whitebeard Pirates have always used the devil fruit as spoils and distributed it to the seized people on the spot. So, Odo, it is very difficult for you to acquire the devil fruit from the New World."

Umit said in a deep voice: "We can help you collect some from all over the world, but the most powerful one in the world is always the navy."

The Red Clay Continent and the Four Seas are the territory of the navy and the government, and the paradise is basically ruled by Odog, while the New World is the world of the Pirate Emperor.

Morgens and Stutchy, the emperors of the dark world, are very famous, but in fact they are just making a living in the territory of pirates and navy.

Odo rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Forget it, please pay more attention to me."

After the meeting, Stussi reported the information to the world government with his backhand, reiterating that Odo was looking for powerful devil fruits.

However, the government's reaction was very cold. Everyone wanted the devil fruit, which was not valuable information at all.

On the side of the Sky Island, Odo lifted up the microphone and called Kaido again.

"Hey, Kaido, I heard that you have a dog fruit, a phantom beast species, and a big mouth true god form?"

Kaido's tone sounded a little depressed and said, "Ah, yes, what's wrong?"

Odo asked, "You know, Fufu and the others have been pregnant recently. I am going to prepare some good devil fruits for my children, so can I sell them to me? You can buy the price at will!"

Kaido paused for a few seconds and growled: "Yawa that gangster...sorry Odo, that fruit was eaten by Yamato."

Odo was a little regretful, but it was absolutely reasonable to leave good things to his daughter.

However, the incident did not seem to be like this. Kaido only heard cursing: "The boy said he wanted to become Oden some time ago. He was locked up by me for a few days. As a result, she slipped out while the guards were not careful. Then because she was hungry, she ate the devil fruit I treasured! What is most unforgivable is that she even said she regretted eating randomly!"

Odo's eyes twitched and he said heavily: "Blow! Beat hard! The child is disobedient, and he will be honest if he beats him!"

Kaido said loudly: "Hey, Odo, when your son grows up, come and get people! I'm upset when I see Yamato now!"

Odo said in surprise: "You are serious? Kaido, Yamato is already 14 years old? My son is not born yet."

Kaido said indifferently: "It doesn't matter if it's 14 years older, Yamato is shedding my blood at least."

Odo didn't know that Yamato, who is 28 years old in the future, looks like a little girl, saying that she has a lot of people to believe in her underage.

"Let's talk about it when my son grows up." Odo hurried over.

Not long after, Odo received another call from Lingling, saying that he wanted to wait for Odo's child to be born and pick up at least one child, with the last name of their Charlotte family.

I want to be a waste! Odo refuses directly, and Odo also quarreled with Lingling for this.

......

In Beihai, the bald man and his group rushed to Ciandao Mountain with the devil fruit that had not yet been identified.

The pirate ship stopped at the foot of the upside down mountain and began the final preparations.

Jem pretended to be careless and asked, "Boss, why don't we sell it directly to the Don Quixote family? I heard that Tianyasha is the younger brother of the Red Dragon Emperor."

The bald man despised: "What do you know? Do you think the people in the Don Quixote family will really give you money? You're not going to die?"

Jem hesitated, "Where is the Red Dragon Emperor?"

The bald man said confidently: "That's a top pirate, with a guaranteed reputation."

His idea was very simple, to go to the paradise, sell the devil fruit to the Sky Pirates, and then immigrate directly to the Sky Island to live a retirement and retirement life.

Jem's eyes flashed and he said, "I am worthy of being the captain, the plan is really comprehensive."

The bald man said proudly: "Of course!"

Jem lowered his head and said, "Boss, I suddenly remembered that I have been going to sea for a long time this time, and I want to make a phone call with my family."

The bald man waved his hand: "Go."

About ten nautical miles away, a huge merchant ship rushed towards him.

On the deck, a middle-aged man with a big back on his back, holding a monocular lens and searching around.

"Boss, there is news and the location has been determined."

The middle-aged man took back his telescope, turned around, and showed a sneer.

"How are those hyenas ready?"

The younger brother who came to report swallowed and said, "The bounty hunters... are a bit nonsense, but they are still obedient."

The middle-aged man smiled softly, took out a photo from his arms, and looked closely and said, "Very good! A devil fruit has a market price of 500 million yuan now, but some special devil fruits can be sold at sky-high prices... What a good luck, those rural pirates in the North Sea, hahaha."

What appears in the photo is the red heart-shaped devil fruit.

Surgery fruits!
