Chapter 284: The Mystery of the New Ability Fruit!
What the heck?
Higashinohara was carrying [Nine Eyes and Six Paths], even in the dark night, he was also aware of everything around him, and he clearly saw that the person in the darkness was clearly the woman named Teresa who wore a navy blue peacock feather mask during the day.
And the man that a woman means is a man who is still in the middle of the day with another woman wearing a pink peacock feather, and I am a man who is dressed in a somewhat British gentlemanly style.
Wait a minute...
If I'm not mistaken, when I passed through the border gate during the day, the woman in front of me was still disdainful of the actions of the two of them, and it was really fragrant in the dead of night?
Oh, woman.
Since joining the Chasseur organization of [Scarlet of Daybreak], Higashinohara has gradually discovered that although this organization is a "killer organization" to some extent, it is actually not as ruthless as he perceived... For example, Higashinohara just joined the two teammates that Daybreak Scarlet matched.
Dusk is still in line with some of Higashinohara's imagination before joining this hunter organization, just like Agent 007 and the like in his previous life.
But another wild rose who loves dramas and oden, and his nerves are a little off the line, it is estimated that he has to fight with Xia Li, and he has nothing to do with Higashinohara's imagination at all.
Let's take a look at today's seven-star chaspers, who are considered the "heads" of the scarlet of dawn, and even have a bloody love triangle, I have to say that the chaspersin in this chaser organization...
Well, they all have more personality.
This made Higashinohara speechless and a little curious at the same time, how did such a chaser organization quickly rise into a top-ranked chaser organization second only to "Red Star" in just a few decades, and who would be the person who founded this chaser organization?
Higashinohara thought about this in his heart, and I was not interested in these sea kings and green tea kings in the dark night, so I turned around and wanted to leave here.
At this time, a man's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Is it the White Yasha?"
Discovered?
Higashinohara paused and wanted to ignore it and walk away, but the voice of the woman named "Teresa" who met under the sky tree in the afternoon came from behind.
"Sure enough, it's you."
When the woman said this, the first word was still behind her, but the direction from which the last word came from was ringing in her ears.
When Higashinohara turned his head, Teresa's figure had already appeared not far from him, looking about thirty years old, with dazzling white blonde hair, a pair of pale red lips on a long snow-white neck, a well-proportioned and graceful figure, quite a bit of pure desire.
"It's not good for a man to be too slow..."
Teresa, who was about to arrive, looked at the white-faced and fanged Yaksha mask on Higashinohara's face with a smile, brushed the white blonde hair around her ears, and chuckled, "Do you wear a mask at night?" Look, I've taken off my mask to let you see my face, shouldn't you..."
Teresa said this, and her snow-white arm was gently raised like catkins, and she gently approached the mask on Higashinohara's face, as if she wanted to help Higashinohara take it off.
This kind of action is a little intimate, and it seems that he doesn't care about the man who was with her just now, like a tool man who throws it away when he runs out.
Higashinohara stood still and did not move.
Teresa's full pale red lips curled slightly, and she looked at the white-faced, fanged Yaksha mask that was close at hand, but a faint sense of pride welled up in her heart.
What White Nakshatria.
To put it bluntly, he's just a man...
However, in the next moment, when Teresa's fingertips touched the mask on Higashinohara's face, the completely unreal touch made her feel slightly stunned.
In the faint moonlight, the originally clear figure in front of the woman's eyes gradually blurred, and the figure of the wild field in the air was like the moon reflected in the water, and after a burst of ripples, it appeared on her other side.
At this moment,
Just like that moment and then.
It's like Theresa never came.
"I'm sorry... I'm used to wearing a mask. Higashinohara's hoarse voice came from behind the mask, saying sorry in his mouth, but his tone sounded very cold.
Teresa's raised hand froze in place, and her face was cloudy for a moment, and it seemed that this should be one of the few failures in her glamorous youth.
Seeing this, the man who was thrown away quickly ran up, and said apologetically to Higashinohara, "I'm really sorry, it was Teresa who was rude just now, but we didn't have malicious intent, we just wanted to say hello, my name is Elenda, code name Gentleman, from the United States of Tagos in the West, you shouldn't know me, but I know, there should be no one in our chasers team this time who hasn't heard the name 'White Yasha'." ”
"Hello, White Yaksha." Higashinohara maintains basic etiquette.
In this world, it is impossible to say that there are many friends and many paths, but at least there is no need for him to befriend his companions in this temporary exploration team until there is no direct conflict of interest.
Seeing that although Higashinohara's tone was cold, he didn't mean to be angry, and Allenda, the man codenamed "Gentleman", couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.
At the same time, Teresa also recovered from the embarrassment just now, a subtle glimmer flashed in her eyes, and a smile appeared on her face again, "It was indeed me who was impulsive just now, and I apologize to you here, but we just stopped you, in fact, we want to invite you to form an alliance with us." ”
"Alliance?"
Higashinohara was slightly stunned, "Aren't we all together now?" ”
"No, no, no..."
Teresa chuckled and shook her head, "I mean... A small group that we can help each other and survive together in this world..."
It turned out to be a small group...
Higashinohara's face was a little abrupt, but then it became a little strange again.
In addition to Kimura Hakuta, the leader of the third party investigation team of the initiator and funder, the rest of the exploration team this time added up to a total of nine people.
And then the four of them will form an alliance again?
This can't help but remind Higashinohara of a joke in a girls' dormitory of six people and five groups in his previous life...
After Teresa finished speaking, although she couldn't see the look on Higashinohara's face through the mask, she also found that her proposal didn't seem to impress Higashinohara.
She suddenly remembered something, and before Higashinohara opened her mouth to refuse, she suddenly said, "Aren't you curious, what is the special reward in the mouth of the head of Kimura?" Most of us should be aiming for that thing this time, otherwise it's just that little money, and I'm sure no fool will come..."
Higashinohara didn't speak, the corners of his eyes twitched under the mask, and he felt a little insulted inexplicably.
But he didn't ask, just stood still.
Teresa didn't expect Higashinohara to be so oily and salty, with a look of "you love to talk or not", this feeling is like she used to treat those licking dogs around her when she didn't have a task, "don't take the initiative, don't refuse, don't be responsible", this feeling is really one of the few experiences for her...
Finally, before Higashinohara turned around.
Teresa still didn't want to lose this new cheature ally who broke through to the seventh star at the fastest speed in [Scarlet of Dawn] and had a red "↑" logo in the back, so she took the initiative to speak, "Ability fruit, the unexpected joy in Captain Kimura's mouth is the ability fruit, but only those who survive can successfully get the fruit from his hands." ”
Hearing Teresa's words, Higashinohara's face finally changed slightly.
It wasn't the first time he had heard the name "Ability Fruit", when he rescued Nishimaru Miri at that villa in the harbor last year, the imprisoned Ability Bearers at the auction were all survivors of the big data of the "Ability Fruit".
In fact, the reason why the "Fruit of Ability" is also called "Devil Fruit" in the black market is because in the eyes of people, this way of obtaining ability through external forces is tantamount to trading with "Devil".
What's more critical is that this fruit is extremely unstable, and the probability of surviving is not one in 100, and it is generally those who are cornered, or some forces organize illegal imprisonment of "experimental subjects" to take such fruits to fight for luck.
Seven-star hunters like Teresa and Ellenda have awakened their innate abilities to be promoted to the seventh order, and it stands to reason that such fruits should not be attractive to them at all.
Even if you get your hands on it and sell it on the black market, the value is not as high as you imagined, after all, this fruit is too dangerous.
Alenda seemed to see the confusion under Higashinohara's mask, stepped forward with a light cough, and said to Higashinohara, "It seems that Your Excellency Hakuyasha's impression of the Ability Fruit is still stuck in the past, presumably Your Excellency must not know that a new type of Ability Fruit has appeared on the black market recently..."
"The fruit of a new ability?" Higashinohara Road.
"That's right." Teresa next to her said with a smile, "We also call this new type of 'Ability Fruit' the 'Angel Fruit', this kind of fruit does not have all the side effects of the 'Devil Fruit' at all, and only needs to endure slight pain and a short loss of control to awaken a new innate ability and become an enviable dual-innate ability." ”
"The meaning of a person with dual natural abilities... I don't think I need to introduce His Excellency the White Yakshas, do I? Gentleman Ellenda looked at Higashinohara, who was motionless, and his heart suddenly relaxed, almost sure that the other party had been moved.
No one can resist the temptation of dual talents.
For those who are capable, one more talent is equivalent to one more way in the process of ability advancement, and some geniuses can even comprehend more complex abilities than before.
Teresa looked at Higashinohara, who was motionless, and continued to say seductively, "The 'Unexpected Joy' that Captain Kimura prepared for us this time is the third-level blue new 'Ability Fruit', which can awaken the blue high-risk ability, and it is even rumored that it can awaken the extremely rare talent sequence ability of the same position..."
Gentleman Allenda shrugged his shoulders and said, "But we know that the fruit of this powerful, stable, and safe new ability is priceless even on the black market, even with Captain Kimura's financial resources... I'm afraid that the number is also extremely rare, so whether it is the reward of our exploration mission or the additional reward of the fruit of the new ability, only the last survivor will have a chance to obtain it. ”
As for that, they have said everything that can be said and what should be said.
Ellenda and Teresa believed that in such a clear situation, Higashinohara had no reason not to be tempted and there was no reason to refuse their invitation.
However, it was precisely because of this confidence that next, when Higashinohara's words fell, the two of them almost thought that there was an auditory hallucination in their ears.
"I'm sorry... I'm used to being alone. ”
After finishing speaking, Higashinohara turned around and left without saying a word, and Ellenda and Teresa behind him were suddenly a little dumbfounded.
What is the situation?
With them, there is no doubt that the chances of obtaining the fruits of the new ability will be much greater, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity to awaken the second innate ability, isn't this guy not tempted at all?!
......
On the way back to the camp, Higashinohara's mind was also thinking about the new ability fruit, he was naturally not excited, and the so-called "second talent" was just a joke in front of him.
Higashinohara was just a little puzzled, since there were even priceless things on the black market, where did Kimura Hakuto get such a thing to tempt the seven-star chasseurs of the Chaser Organization to die for him?
And there is still a little doubt, which has existed in Higashinohara's mind from the beginning.
Since the Sky Tree [Boundary Gate] appeared in New Tokyo, it would have been fine if the Adjudicator Division had been there before, but now the Adjudicator Division is gone, and it is naturally impossible for the host of Wano Country to put "Baoshan" at the door of his house, just waiting for others to come to the house to explore, and it is normal to send an exploration team.
Higashinohara felt that it was Kimura Hakutaku who was abnormal.
This guy seems to be a little too natural about everything here, and looking at his familiar appearance, there is still no need to explore.
But that's also the problem.
In that case, what did Kimura Hakuto do when he hired hunters to come to this place?
With these chaotic thoughts in his mind, when he passed by the pitch-black elementary school classroom, Higashinohara subconsciously glanced at the black classroom.
Under the erosion of I don't know how many years, the glass windows of the classroom are gray and mottled, and even Higashino's original night vision ability can't see what is inside.
But having experienced it last time, even if something suddenly flew out of the door of the black hole classroom at this moment, Higashinohara would not have any surprise in his heart.
However, in the dark classroom, everything was very quiet, and this scene was very strange in Higashinohara's eyes.
Passing by the front door of the classroom in the black hole, Higashinohara didn't turn his head to look inside.
It wasn't until he was about to reach the back door that he turned around and turned his head close to the dusty window, peering through the mottled gap.
The next moment, his pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly!
In the field of vision, it was a pair of pale eyeballs with unusually prominent crystals, peering at him from the other side of the window without blinking.
Higashinohara subconsciously took a few steps back, and looked at the "Happy Elementary School" in the dark night, like a black monster entrenched in this barren land.
Wait a minute!
Over here... It's not that there are no demons!
......
