Chapter 9: Six Devil Fruits
"Aside from him, Hill is not a capable person."
Lao Gan said again, "It's the girl with the giant sword on her back, she is walking the pure way of a swordsman, in addition to the sword in her heart, it is estimated that there is only a young master, so naturally she will not eat such a thing as a devil fruit." ”
It seems that there is more than one freak......
Heiko was speechless for a while, he suddenly thought of another question, and after struggling for a moment, he still asked tentatively, "What about ...... What about him, Lord Vito? Is he a capable one? ”
"Not before."
Lao Gan paused after speaking, and after muttering for a while, he said with a smile, "As for whether it will be in the future, it depends on the young master himself......
…………
In the daylight, black ravens flew out of the window, silently disappearing into the darkness.
Heiko sat at the head of the bed in a bit of a daze, reminiscing about the meaning of the last sentence left by Lao Gan.
In the next room, Vito, who was looking out of the window at the sea, silently lit a cigarette when he saw the raven flying away.
Lao Gan was a loyal servant who followed his father when he was young, and he was always reassured by his old ways, and since he left at this time, he must have explained everything that should be said clearly in front of Heiko.
This guy is a very important pawn in the next plan, and many things need to be cooperated, and there must be no mistakes at critical moments.
But the most important part still falls on you in the end.
"Hoo ......"
Vito exhaled a puff of smoke, looked at the mirror-like sky and thought for a moment, then took out three boxes from the drawer of the bedside table, lined them up, and placed them side by side on the desk in front of the porthole.
Of the three boxes, all of them are Devil Fruits.
As Gan and Heiko mentioned in a half-joking tone, the Corleone family had a great business in the mountains, and because Vito had swallowed up all his peers in the surrounding mountains in one fell swoop after his father was bedridden, he had saved as many as six Devil Fruits.
Three of them have been picked and eaten by Vito's henchmen.
In addition to Hathaway's brain circuit Qingqi, who chose a Ragdoll fruit that he didn't think had any eggs, the other two fruits, that is, the abilities of Seti and Lao Gan, are quite powerful.
Of the remaining three, two of them have long been identified by the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book, and all of them belong to the animal cow cow fruit, with the difference that one is in the form of a cow and the other is in the form of a rhinoceros.
Vito had found these two fruits a long time ago in the relics of a caravan littered with dead bodies after being intercepted by bandits.
The bandits were not very particular about what they did, killing all the merchants from Mary Joy, robbing them of valuable gold and belongings, but they did not carefully clean up the battlefield and did not bury the corpses.
Vito has always hated this irresponsible behavior, and many of the occasional plagues in the mountains are caused by these unruly peers.
In the dark compartment on the top of the carriage, Vito found the two Devil Fruits hidden by the caravan man, as well as some other soft jewels, and accidentally dug out a mother and son who had escaped the catastrophe in the corpse.
The mother was already dying, barely reluctantly identifying herself as the mistress of the caravan, and swallowed her breath before she could thank Vito, and the little boy she was protecting in her arms was only seven or eight years old, and his black pupils were calm and indifferent, and he perfectly concealed her sorrow and hatred.
Vito saw himself in his previous life on the little guy's face, and with a rare sense of compassion, he took two Devil Fruits with him and brought them back to the cottage, and raised the little boy named Arno carefully.
As for the last Devil Fruit......
Vito squinted slightly in the sunlight and opened the box in the middle.
On the soft velvet, there is an oval devil fruit with a whole emerald green body and a faint blue light, and the surface lines are intricate and three-dimensional.
This is the latest Devil Fruit that Vito obtained, which was accidentally discovered in the mountains and mountains about half a year ago, and it is also the only Devil Fruit among all the fruits in his hands that has not been marked in any Devil Fruit Illustrated Book.
Interestingly, judging from Vito's experience after handling so many Devil Fruits, the only thing that can be determined about this fruit is that it is most likely to belong to the natural system.
The burnt fruit and rustling fruit, which have been recorded in the illustrated book, have uneven and extremely prominent thick lines, which can even be described as cutting hands.
This commonality may not be an absolute criterion for judging the attribution of fruit types, but most of the time it can still be used as a reference basis, and the emerald green fruit obtained by Vito has a surface texture type that happens to be exactly the same as the surface of the burnt fruit.
Department of Nature.
With such a scope in mind, no matter what kind of pact the fruit would make with the demon, it would undoubtedly be worth far more than all the rest of the fruit in Vito's hands.
The best is always behind, and Vito got his first Devil Fruit shortly after crossing over, and the reason why he hasn't tried to eat it for more than ten years since then is precisely because he doesn't like these fruits very well.
Or rather, his vision is too high to look down on......
In Vito's opinion, instead of losing the ability to swim for this level of Devil Fruit, which gave him an Achilles' heel, it was better to continue to practice and practice while waiting for the right fruit ability to appear.
There has never been a shortage of arguments in the world, saying that those who only have the ability of garbage Devil Fruits, and those who do not have garbage, as long as they are properly developed, no matter how chicken their abilities are, they can shine in the hands of the strong.
Vito scoffed at this.
There seems to be nothing wrong with the words themselves, but the logic of cause and effect is very problematic, and it is exactly the same as the statements of those in their previous lives who claimed that smoking and drinking had no effect on life expectancy, and took those old smokers who lived to be eighty or ninety years old as an example, saying that the doctor who advised him to quit smoking had died in front of him.
In a word.
Before becoming a Devil Fruit ability, Vito had been quite attentive to his physical cultivation for more than ten years.
Even in the eyes of many loyal subordinates, his own young master is really a little too cruel to himself, almost a posture of not giving up without squeezing out his physical potential.
Kevito has never taken this kind of vision seriously, in his opinion, the ordinary people in this world have quite terrifying physical potential, far exceeding the average level of earthlings in the previous life, like a bottomless treasure trove, not worrying about digging it all out.
Moreover.
I don't know if it's because the Corleone family has excellent genes, Vito obviously feels that his body is much stronger than his peers around him even when he is the thinnest and sick.
In his previous life, in order to become stronger and diligent after the catastrophe, he cultivated his body to a monster-level level, and since he was born with such a favorable basic conditions in this life, Vito would not squander his talent because of some unwarranted concerns and live up to this grace of God.
