"Hey Wo Grass ......"

Oka and Poison Q had just run to Titch's side with a puzzled look on their faces when they heard Titch whisper a curse.

"Captain, what do you see?"

Oka asked, slung his special sniper rifle over his shoulder, standing behind Titch.

Poison Q slowly approached Titch with a weak smile.

"Devil Fruits?!"

"Alas...... It's a pity it's not the Devil Fruit I'm looking for. ”

Titch sighed.

In order to find the coveted "Dark Fruit", Titch had watched the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book more than once a long time ago, until he imprinted the appearance of the Dark Fruit in his mind.

At the same time, this also made Titch have a certain understanding of many more powerful Devil Fruits.

For example, the natural Thunder Fruit, Magma Fruit, the Animal-based Ancient Species, the Phantom Beast Devil Fruit, and some Devil Fruits with outstanding abilities in the Superhuman Series.

Blackbeard has a special "alien body" that allows him to eat two Devil Fruits at the same time, possessing both abilities and not dying as a result.

The "Dark Fruit", which can neutralize all Devil Fruits' abilities, and the "Shock Fruit", which has the power to destroy the world, are the ideal combination in Titch's mind.

But now, Whitebeard's concussive power has been taken away by Carl, and if nothing else, there is a chance that the Shock Fruit will not appear in this world again.

The whereabouts of the Dark Fruit are still unknown.

Do you have to wait forever?

No, there is no time to waste!

Looking at the Devil Fruit in his hand, Titch's eyes revealed a fierce gaze like a fierce beast.

"If this soul fruit can be used properly, it can also develop the ability to destroy the world!"

Laughing loudly, Tiki didn't care about the mud and sand on the Devil Fruit that had just been washed up on the shore by the sea, he directly stuffed the Soul Fruit into his mouth and chewed it heavily.

As long as you eat one bite, you can have the power of a Devil Fruit, and the rest of it is completely equivalent to eating.

Maybe it was because he was angry with fate, or maybe he wanted to use the Devil Fruit to stimulate his restless emotions, Tiki grinned, chewed all the whole soul fruit, and swallowed it completely.

If he had a choice, Tiki would definitely not want to eat any soul fruits.

Because Carl, who had harmed him to this point of embarrassment, was able to control the ghosts, and Titch's intuition told him that the "ghosts" were the nemesis of the soul fruit.

But he had no choice.

Without the protection of the Whitebeard Pirates, he would not have been able to carve out his own niche on the sea of the New World with his unskilled brute strength alone.

If you encounter the "ghost" Carl again in the future, it is good to try to avoid using the ability of the soul fruit to fight him, anyway, you can't only eat one devil fruit.

"Oka, poison Q!"

Titch turned, and the resentment that had accumulated over the years finally exploded at this moment, and his fierce expression was like that of a vengeful ghost who had just crawled out of hell.

"Let's start hunting souls!"

……

Red Earth Continent, "Holy Land" Mary Joy, in the ancient city of Pangu.

There is a "vacant throne" here.

The throne has a strange shape, looking like a giant sword standing upside down on the ground.

On the wide avenue in the palace in front of the throne, there is a sumptuous red carpet.

Straight on either side of the carpet stood two rows of guard soldiers in armor armed with spears.

Walking through the red carpet and stepping on the steps, you will come to a platform full of swords.

These swords are like a fence blocking the way of the people, and the meaning of these swords is also "forbidden to go forward".

There are no steps between the second-story platform filled with swords and the three-story platform like a castle wall, which shows that the "vacant throne" can be viewed from a distance and cannot be desecrated.

Walk down the steps on the third floor and you will reach the fourth platform where the "Vacant Throne" is located.

On the ground in front of the throne, there are 20 different weapons, including swords, guns, halberds, axes, hooks and forks—the same weapons used by the 20 kings who created the world government 800 years ago!

The "vacant throne" has its own unique meaning – it represents an oath to insist that kings are "equal to each other" and that there will never be a dictatorship.

The "Vacant Throne" represents the center of the world and is a symbol of peace that no one can touch.

Just as the pinnacle of power in the world is held by the highest rank of the Celestial Dragon people, the "Five Old Stars", there is no unique king in this world!

However, today, these five so-called highest-ranking Tianlong people stood respectfully on the first red carpet without the protection of soldiers, just like elementary school students who were about to wait for the head teacher's lecture.

On the side of the Vacant Throne, in a room called "Between the Flowers", a strange man in a black robe and a crown of strange spiky thorns is teasing several butterflies among the flowers.

On the grass behind him, a bounty has been sliced to pieces by him with a sharp sword.

It was vaguely discernible that the bounty was on Karl's head.

A man in black knelt not far behind Im and whispered, "Lord Imu, the people have arrived. ”

The strange man named Im did not respond, and like a mute, he dragged his long cloak and slowly walked up the steps leading to the "Vacant Throne" from the "Flower Room".

At the moment when Imu appeared, the five old stars actually bent down, bowed their heads, and knelt towards the "vacant throne".

The five pitiful-looking old men said in unison: "Lord Imu, the five old stars have come to pay a visit!" ”

Imu didn't get angry, and he didn't let the five old stars get up.

He sat down on the throne that "must never be seated", slowly opened his eyes, and stared at the five old stars who were kneeling on the ground on the first floor in the distance with a pair of eagle-like sharp eyes.

Before Imu could speak, the five old stars took the initiative to speak: "It is our dereliction of duty to fail to destroy the monster "lamp" named Carl in this annihilation operation, so we implore Lord Im to punish him!" ”

In the long river known as history, Imu has ordered countless "lights" to be extinguished.

The "Lamp of Sandora" on Gaya Island and the "Lamp of O'Hara" in the West Sea were all finally destroyed because of this man's order.

The world government has been stable for 800 years, but in the last 8 years, a strange lamp named "Carl" has appeared, a non-devil fruit ability with terrifying thoughts and the power of ghosts.

It is said that the "D family" is the natural enemy of the "gods", so what kind of variable will this strange lamp called "ghost god" be?

The expression was extremely grim, and even with a hint of timidity, the five old stars didn't dare to speak anymore after saying a word.

But Imu was staring at them from beginning to end, and didn't say anything.

He really looks like a mute.
