"Mr. Jer, you... How do you know this? ”

Xia Qi looked at Jer's in surprise, thinking that this Mr. Killer was mysterious enough, but now it seems that what he sees is only the tip of his iceberg.

Jerle shook his head with a wry smile and said.

"Miss Xia Qi, sometimes it's not good for people to be too curious. However, since you already have the heart to join my team, there are some things that you can be mentally prepared for as soon as you know earlier. ”

Jerle paused, and opened the large box in front of him, revealing that there was a small wooden box hidden in the sunken dirt pit at the bottom of one of the boxes.

Xia Qi blinked her eyes wide, and Jer's action of opening the box made her inexplicably a little flustered.

Why was Mr. Győr so bold this time, wasn't he worried that the contents of the wooden box would dissipate again?

As it turned out, Xia Qi's worries were unnecessary.

This time, what Jer took out of the wooden box was no longer a paper document, but a strange-looking fruit.

The cyan color of the trees, with the compass stripes, makes the answer obvious.

"It's... Devil Fruits? ”

Xia Qi was in a complicated mood, and felt more and more that Jeer was unfathomable. I don't know if this is the first time she has been surprised today, and she has faintly developed antibodies to the surprise in her heart.

Jerle nodded, holding the Devil Fruit, not knowing what to think. Suddenly, under Xia Qi's gaze, he took a bite of the fruit.

"Ahh

"Mr. Jer, you... You ate a Devil Fruit so casually? ”

Jerle wiped the corners of his mouth, casually tossed aside the remaining fruit that had lost its potency, and smiled.

"Why, Miss Xia Qi, do you think I should go to great lengths to cook it before eating it? With all due respect, I'm afraid that the world's top chefs won't be able to make such a bad thing to eat. ”

"Mr. Jer, I didn't mean that, it's just... It's just..."

Xia Qi frowned in annoyance, feeling for the first time that her ability to express herself was so poor.

"It's just Mr. Jer, don't you know that the Devil Fruit is a cursed fruit. But whoever eats the Devil Fruit will be abandoned by the sea? ”

Abandoned by the sea?

Perhaps.

Jerle doesn't care, there is no such thing as perfection in this world. If you want to become stronger, if you don't even have the consciousness of this trade-off, what are you talking about fighting against the world.

"Alright, Miss Xia Qi, there is nothing left to remember here. Let's talk about what happens. ”

Without waiting for Xia Qiduo to say, Jer's had already walked to the edge of the rock wall.

"Miss Xia Qi, offended."

"What?"

"Ahh

A scream rang out, and Jerle picked up Xia Qi and jumped down from the top of the dirt mountain.

The speed of falling is extremely fast, and I don't know how much easier it is than rock climbing, but Xia Qi does not have the slightest joy.

Crazy, really a madman.

"Miss Xia Qi, hold me tight, it's time to land."

Xia Qi was so angry that her teeth itched, and she couldn't wait to bite Jer'er a few times. Just because he was afraid, he buried his head next to Jer's neck and didn't dare to look down.

"Tree Realm, Vine Bed."

Jer's fluttering words rang out, and when he was still three meters from the ground, the dragon's teeth came out.

In the next moment, with the dragon's tooth as the center, the weeds within a radius of five meters surged up. In the blink of an eye, a huge green rattan bed stood horizontally in the air, just in time to catch the two people who fell from the sky.

Xia Qi stared blankly at the rattan bed above her head, until she landed, it was still a little cloudy.

Is this the ability that Mr. Jell has acquired? It's terrifying, it can make ordinary weeds skyrocket as tall as towering trees in an instant.

"Okay, Miss Xia Qi, don't be stunned. I don't think there's anything left to explore on this island, so let's gather some food and get ready to leave. ”

Jer pulled up the dragon's teeth, and the fruit ability given to the dragon's teeth just now actually left a green vine stripe on the scabbard of the dragon's teeth, faintly having a dragon-like feeling.

Interesting.

"Ah, Mr. Jeer... What's going on? ”

It turned out that just now, the huge rattan bed actually withered. And in that five-meter radius, the once grass and trees have withered away.

Is that really the result?

Jerr held his right hand and pondered.

The release of fruit ability is far from meeting the expectations in my heart. Therefore, in the case of insufficient ability, the vitality of all plants and trees is overdrawn.

"Don't worry, Miss Xia Qi. It's okay, it's the sequelae of my improper use of my abilities. ”

"Mr. Jer, what about you..."

Xia Qi looked at Jer's worriedly, the sudden withering was so shocking that she couldn't help but worry that Jer's body would also be hurt.

Jer's heart warmed, and the feeling of being cared for for a long time was really intoxicating.

"Thank you Miss Xia Qi for your concern, I'm fine. This artificial fruit is the raw fruit of the super-energy system. By sharing vitality, the effect of rapid growth can be achieved... Because I haven't used it yet, that's why it wilts. ”

"Huh? Artificial fruits?! Mr. Jer, are you saying that the fruit you just ate was not naturally generated, but artificially created? ”

Jer's pupils were dilated and Xia Qi was a little funny and helpless.

Sure enough, she shouldn't reveal too much, Miss Xia Qi, who was so calm before, made her lose her mind from today's experience.

Old Jer, maybe I understand you a little. I know everything, but I have no one to talk to and share. So until death, don't you want to remember how strong you are?

"Alright, Miss Xia Qi, don't be curious. Knowing too much is not good for you at this stage. ”

Jerle turned around and walked slowly towards the way he came. Xia Qi bit her lip and looked at Jer's lonely back, feeling inexplicably distressed.

"Tell me everything! If I can, let me do some of it for you! ”

"Jer... Captain! ”

Jer's footsteps paused, and at this moment, there was a gap in the killer's constant vigilance.

Not only the remnants of old Jer, but also the loneliness that Jerle had long been accustomed to being alone in his previous life, began to waver with a "captain".

Jer didn't look back, and Xia Qi didn't step forward. The two of them held a few positions, and just stood silently.

"I know it was my performance that let you down, but from the moment you saved me, my life was yours. So, please let me live with you with your faith. ”

"Captain Jer, I won't let you down again!"

Jerle sighed, and Xia Qi behind him was already faintly crying.

Thinking of his evaluation of Xia Qi, Jer's heart was helpless again.

Intelligent, and sharp.

By the time she refused to tell her more, she had already understood, the answer to whether she could get on the boat.

Do you want to be soft-hearted?

No, the path you walk, the companions you need, even if you can't do it with combat strength, you must have the mentality that the sky is not shocked.

Didn't he take a fancy to her at the ball because she was a slave of the Celestial Dragons, but she never had the slightest fear?

"Miss Xia Qi, we..."

"Let's go back to the boat."
