Chapter 48: Talk!
"So-"
After a while, after digesting the descriptions about the Devil Fruit in Cheng Jie's cognition, and all kinds of drawbacks, the group couldn't help but sigh.
"And what kind of fruit is this?"
Anilu is interested.
After learning that there are many people on the sea with strange abilities and devil fruit abilities, the group couldn't help but look at Cheng Jie curiously, wondering what kind of ability this fruit has.
"Ahem ~ this ......"
Cheng Jie coughed lightly, scratched the back of his head, and said with some embarrassment: "Actually, I don't have the ability to figure out this fruit." ”
"What!"
"Don't blame me, after all, the Devil Fruit is known as the secret treasure of the sea, even on this sea, the number is very limited, how can I know at a glance, the ability of this fruit!"
Looking at the group of people, after hearing Cheng Jie say that he didn't know what kind of ability this devil fruit was, they all looked at him in disappointment, and Cheng Jie, who had a good face, retorted.
"Cut-I thought you knew~"
Anilu said even more teasingly.
"However, although I don't know what power this fruit has now, I still have this!"
Cheng Jie flipped through the Berry pile, and pulled out a brown book with a "swish".
Everyone looked at the book that Cheng Jie took out, which was only about two palms long and wide and three fingers thick, and his eyes showed doubts.
"You'll know through this, this is the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book."
Cheng Jie held up the small notebook, glanced at Anilu proudly, checked the Devil Fruit in his hand, and said: "In this small book, there are many introductions to the shape and ability of the Devil Fruit~"
"What~ and this kind of thing?"
"yes, even if there is, how did you find it?"
Originally, when Weber and the others heard Cheng Jie's words just now, they felt hopeless to understand this devil fruit, but suddenly, they ushered in such a turning point, and they couldn't help but look at Cheng Jie with surprise on their faces, and looked at Cheng Jie with a little suspicion.
"Alas~"
Cheng Jie saw Weber and the others, with an expression of disbelief, he couldn't help but sigh softly, and said helplessly: "This is what I found in the vault in the fortress, and there are these things together, do you think it's luck, why can't you stop it?" ”
Weber and his group, seeing Cheng Jie's superior and self-absorbed expression, 'smacked' and did not answer.
Anilu was even more direct, snatched the illustrated book from Cheng Jie's hand, and flipped through it, and Weber and the others also came over curiously.
"Do you have any pictures, it's so convenient!"
After opening the illustrated book, Anilu saw the first page, which was both illustrated and textual, and the power and shape of the Devil Fruit.
"Melt Fruit, Sparkling Fruit, Clear Fruit, ......"
Anilu looked at the fruit in Cheng Jie's hand, constantly flipping through the illustrated book, and the abilities and introductions of the devil fruits appeared in front of everyone's eyes, making them dazzled and surprised.
But as the page of the illustrated book has been turned more than halfway, everyone has also discovered that the description of the devil fruit in the illustrated book is more and more blurred the further it goes, like a watershed.
It turned out that the previous was a description of the Devil Fruit, not only with pictures but also with very detailed descriptions of abilities, but now, some are painted with pictures, and some are only one-sided descriptions of abilities, which is very different from before.
"Why, no."
After Anilu finished flipping through the illustrated book that recorded the Devil Fruit, he frowned, flipped through it again, and asked Cheng Jie, "Why, there is no introduction to your fruit in this illustrated book?" ”
"Uh......"
Cheng Jie touched his chin and nodded slowly, "Sure enough, the reason why this devil fruit was not eaten by the navy may be that there is no record about him, so it was hidden in the small vault." ”
"What--you already knew that there was no information about this fruit in the book!"
After everyone reacted, they stared at Cheng Jie tightly, as if if he didn't give them a reasonable explanation, the consequences would be self-evident.
Being stared at by them like this, Cheng Jie was very uncomfortable and shrugged his shoulders, "I haven't seen this illustrated book, how can I know that there is no record." ”
"Then you just said it again."
But Anilu is still the same, unforgiving.
"That's just my guess, but you just verified my idea."
Cheng Jie spread his hands, "Besides, the number of Devil Fruits on the sea is so large, how can they all be described, and now there are so many descriptions and introductions of fruits in this illustrated book, which is already very good." ”
"Uh...... That's right, too. ”
Anilu and the others, hearing Cheng Jie say this, thought about it and couldn't refute it.
On Cheng Jie's side, there was an endless debate over what kind of ability this devil fruit was.
In the G8 fortress, the almost destroyed stone ruins were brightly lit, and the downed sailors were constantly being carried on stretchers and sent for treatment, while other sailors were cleaning up, and the miscellaneous rubble and rubble were poured into the sea, constantly going back and forth between the shore and the ruins......
In a quaintly decorated, brightly lit room inside the fortress, Jonathan sat quietly, his arms resting on a mahogany desk, closing his eyes and pondering, that is, the slight bandage wrapped around his arm, which seemed a little abrupt in this scene.
Suddenly, Jonathan stretched out his other unbandaged hand and pressed the snail with its head on the shell of the navy blue navy markings. (This snail is an important communication tool in the One Piece world, the phone bug.) )
After pressing a number on the phone shell, Jonathan picked up the round microphone in the groove on the top of the phone shell, full of round holes.
"Bulu Bulu—"
The moment the phone bug was picked up the microphone, it raised its originally shrugged head, opened its big round eyes, and kept making the sound of dialing in its mouth.
"Click~", the phone worm said a serious male voice in his mouth.
"Is it Lieutenant General Jonathan? I'm Sengoku. ”
When Jonathan heard this, he quickly brought the microphone to his mouth and said in a deep voice.
"Marshal of the Warring States, I'm Jonathan, although I'm a little embarrassed to disturb you so early, but a very bad incident has just happened at the G8 base of the Great Waterway Navy where I am stationed!"
"Hmmm! What's going on? ”
"That's the case, just now, the G8 base was invaded by several pirates......"
Jonathan rigorously described Cheng Jie and others the process of invading the base and the damage it caused, especially emphasizing the theft of the vault.
"That is to say, 4 fledgling pirate newcomers invaded the base where you are stationed, and also stole a Devil Fruit and about 100 million Berry with unknown abilities?"
Marshal Sengoku, who was in the Navy Headquarters, was silent for a while, and his voice raised slightly, obviously this incident made him a little confused and unhappy.
