Chapter 11: The Magic of Devil Fruits and the Talent Crisis
『Chapter error, click here to report』
It's ridiculous to say that although the Devil Fruit is a specialty of the One Piece world, in fact, the number of people who have actually seen the existence of the Devil Fruit is only very small compared to the population of the entire world, and most of them are still concentrated in the Great Voyage. As for the lucky enough to be able to eat a Devil Fruit, the existence of those who become capable is even rarer.
Excluding those characters who are either strong in their own right, or have a powerful background, the examples of ordinary people who can eat Devil Fruits to achieve their abilities can really be described as one in ten thousand.
Therefore, for the vast majority of people and people in this world, they only lack the ability and means to obtain Devil Fruits, but they never lack the courage to consume Devil Fruits!
Even though, in the legend, the Devil Fruit tastes like something indescribable.
However, there is a saying that does make a lot of sense: resources are always concentrated in favor of the strong.
The Devil Fruit, which can be encountered but not sought by ordinary people and forces, is just an item that can be obtained if you want it, and for Tesla, who is truly the supreme powerhouse of the world.
Even, those Devil Fruits that have too little development potential or no development potential at all are not looked down upon by Tesla!
Moreover, for Tesla, the development potential of the Devil Fruit is by no means limited to its combat ability.
In fact, Tesla has always believed that using all of the Devil Fruit's abilities in combat can only be said to be the will of the world (Oda will?). ) as a result.
Tesla, who once lived in a highly developed civilization and an explosive world of information transmission, has a large brain, or a clear brain circuit, compared to the vast majority of wise people and even scientists in the One Piece world, he probably has something that cannot be surpassed.
After all, it is a strange civilization that is desperately trying to light up self-destructing technology points, and at the same time, it does not forget to pile up civilian technology points.
To a certain extent, ordinary people living in that world are indeed very happy.
Those who play computers don't need to be able to build computers, those who fly planes don't need to be able to repair planes or build airplanes, and old drivers can only race with peace of mind, except for worrying about the river crab god without fear......
In such a society where the division of labor is extremely developed and clear, and civilian technology is pushed into an unprecedented world, the vast majority of ordinary people only need to live honestly and step by step, and they can enjoy a happy life that the emperors of the past decades or even hundreds of years ago could not enjoy.
And the world of One Piece is completely different.
The world of One Piece, which has been transformed from anime into reality, is full of black technology that was enough to dumb all scientists in the previous life, but it can be said that there is almost no care at all in terms of civilian technology.
In Tesla's view, the vast majority of people living in this world, including the so-called nobles and even royalty of the major kingdoms, their quality of life is not even as good as that of a white-collar worker in the previous life.
It can't be helped, that's how the world is going.
The strong are always fighting, killing, killing, and fighting, and science and technology have no brains to extend and develop towards war, as for civilian technology?
Joke, those leeks are the greatest gift to them as long as they live, aren't they? Want something else? Dream on!
It is under this ideological atmosphere and environmental influence that the One Piece world will exist in such an unreasonable place in Tesla's opinion.
Like Devil Fruits.
Not to mention what kind of achievements Xiao Ya's Earth Fruit will have in terms of combat, but even after removing the relationship between Xiao Ya and himself, even if the strength of the person who can be ten or even a hundred times stronger than Xiao Ya is completely incomparable to Xiao Ya for Tesla.
The ability of the Earth Fruit, when used in battle, can really only be said to be a great waste and blasphemy.
The real use of this fruit should be in terms of people's livelihood.
Tesla had already tested her abilities with Bud.
After activating the Earth Fruit's ability, as long as she stands on the ground, Little Bud can create all kinds of terrain and land types she needs.
For example, small buds can create terrain that includes, but is not limited to, plains, hills, mountains, and even plateaus and valleys.
Even, she can change the properties of these terrains while creating them.
For example, the plateau has a fertile soil like a plain.
Of course, more importantly, the ability activation of the Earth Fruit is a natural change, which means that once Xiao Bud creates a special terrain, even if she loses her will or even dies, the terrain change she creates will not dissipate, not to mention that if Xiao Bud is handcuffed or falls into the water, the terrain she changed through her ability will return to its original state.
Based on this alone, the little bud with the fruit of the earth is the core and most critical existence of the entire force for Tesla!
In addition to the earth fruits of the small buds, the same is true of the lush fruits of binz.
Although it is not a natural fruit, Binz's ability can manipulate the growth rate of plants.
Tesla also once took Binz to the desert to test his abilities.
The result left Tesla equally dumbfounded.
The small desert with an area of about 5,000 square kilometers was transformed into a forest in just a few hours under the bewitching and spicy dance of Binzna!
Moreover, the effect is similar to that of the Earth Fruit after it is activated, and it is a permanent change......
Tesla, who saw this, has since positioned Binz in the position of gardener and timber supplier in Middle-earth.
Such a talent, to fight or something, is it simply a blasphemy and waste of this ability, okay?
After successfully transforming Bud and Binz from combatants to logistics team leaders, the combat value that the Devil Fruit can provide for Tesla has been infinitely reduced, and on the contrary, the Devil Fruit that can act on people's livelihood has become the thing Tesla desires the most.
"Tsk, when you think about it this way, it's really the most versatile Devil Fruit of the natural system!" Scratching his head, Tesla reached for the cloud-white pear-shaped, but the skin was covered with spiral patterns of natural devil fruit cloud cloud fruit.
After putting the Devil Fruit in his hand and playing with it for a while, Tesla suddenly slapped his head: "Wait, if I'm eating this Devil Fruit, then everyone except for Mr. Zefa will be landlubbers!" ”
Tesla, who had a bitter face, could only helplessly put the Yunyun Fruit in his hand back into the box again.
Because he has just discovered a very important problem.
That is, almost all of the core personnel around him are Devil Fruit abilities!
Needless to say, Butterfly and Little Bud, both of them have their own Devil Fruits; Rescued in the Battle of the Navy, Tina, Ain, Binz and Drow, who naturally became the core management of the entire Middle-earth Continent, are all Devil Fruit abilities!
And then what?
No more......
The core management of the entire Middle-earth continent is also the most trusted by Tesla, and there are just so many people.
Except for him and his teacher Zefa, all the rest of them are already Devil Fruit abilities!
"Damn it...... It's still a problem of lack of talent!! ”
Tesla is going crazy.
"It seems that talent training is also imminent, without the integration of fresh blood, everything is a floating cloud, and any dream is a fantasy!"
"But apart from training myself, how can I have the right people to scavenge......"
Tesla, who forced himself to calm down, swept his eyes over several Devil Fruits in front of him, and suddenly his gaze focused on Yunyun Fruit:
"Wait, I seem to have something in mind......"
