When 'Silver Fox' Foxy woke up again, he found that he was no longer in that cold, damp cell.

It was a bright ward, lying on a bed a hundred times more comfortable than the prison stone bed, and there seemed to be a lot of professional-looking medical equipment around him.

'Haizatou' Hao Xue was wearing a white medical coat at this time, and was sitting beside him with a medical record book recording something.

"He's awake."

Foxy hurriedly turned his head to look to the other side, only to see Trafalgar Rowe, the fierce apprentice of Victor of the 'Murder Chain', leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, looking at him with a fierce look in his eyes.

Hao Xue took off her glasses, stepped forward and opened Fuxi's eyelids to take a closer look, then straightened up and said to Luo, "No problem, let's go." ”

With that, he and Luo pushed the door and left the ward.

Foxy waited for a while, and saw that there was no movement on the side of the ward door, so he quickly sat up from the hospital bed, and then he found that his body was no longer weak and weak, and the shackles of the sea tower that had been binding him disappeared.

Maybe...... Is this a good chance to slip away?

Foxy jumped out of bed all of a sudden, and he walked around the ward barefoot in a hospital gown, making up his mind to escape. There was no way, his courage had long since been worn out in prison.

Just as he was hesitating, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"What? Mr. Fauxie, don't you cherish such a good opportunity to escape? ”

Foxy stiffly and slowly twisted his neck, and found Victor standing not far behind him, watching him go around in circles for a long time.

"You, you...... Didn't you shoot me? Faulksi's face was full of panic, and then he remembered to touch the location of the gun on the door of his head: "Strange, what about the wound?" ”

Victor tilted his head: "Didn't you notice anything wrong?" ”

“…… What have you done to me? Foxy looked sluggish at first, and then suddenly covered his back with alertness.

“…………”

Victor sighed speechlessly, "Try your sluggish fruit ability. ”

'Silver Fox' Foxy's eyes lit up, isn't this the perfect heads-up situation? Eat my slow light waves!

He 'drank' and strode up, his right hand clenched his fist at Victor, his index finger and tail finger cocked, and shouted loudly: "Late~~slow~~~Light!" Wave! ”

There was silence.

Foxy pursed his lips and looked at the unresponsive Victor, reluctantly changing his position and continuing to try to fire sluggish photons.

"Slow Light Wave!"

"Sluggish broom!"

"Slow Swallow Fox Home Delivery!"

"The slowest close-up in the world, pat pat pat

“……”

Victor crossed his arms and patiently watched as Foxy changed back and forth in more than twenty poses, but he couldn't emit even the slightest sluggish photon.

Call...... Call......

Foxy was sweating profusely and holding his knees, barely straightening his waist. What's going on, how can the invincible sluggish light waves not be emitted?

"Looks like there's no remnant of your fruit abilities at all."

Victor held up a golden apple with a spiral pattern in his hand and smiled, "Familiar?" ”

"Huh? Slow, sluggish fruit? Foxy rubbed his eyes and found that he was indeed not mistaken.

Each Devil Fruit will only exist in the world at the same time, and only if the person who eats its ability dies completely, the Devil Fruit will reappear somewhere in the world.

This is the [Law of Iron] that cannot be shaken on this sea.

I thought about it again, and I could no longer sense the sluggish fruit ability in my body...... This guy! This guy is capable of depriving others of their Devil Fruit abilities!

Faulsey sat down on the ground in horror, his mouth trembling and unable to speak.

Half horrified, half terrified.

He's a little crazy, but he's not stupid. Since the other party didn't care about doing experiments on himself and showing the results to himself, it was obvious that the 'murder chain' Victor didn't intend to keep himself alive at all.

The golden apple in Victor's hand disappeared, replaced by a closed box, which he casually threw to Foxy: "The last part of the [exchange], take it." ”

Foxy grabbed the box and opened the lid tremblingly, revealing a banana-shaped Devil Fruit covered in a spiral pattern lying quietly inside.

"The animal is a dog fruit, and the form is [fox]." Victor put his hands in his pockets and said in an inexplicable tone: "It's your wish to exchange this [Fox] fruit for the fruit of sluggishness, right?" ”

Foxy looked at the Devil Fruit, then looked up at Victor with a puzzled expression: "...... Are you—Are you serious? ”

"Of course."

Victor smiled and nodded: "Eat it, you should be a normal person now, and it doesn't matter if you eat the Devil Fruit again." ”

In one bite, Faulksie took a bite of the banana along with the pulp of the belt. The familiar disgusting smell is even more than that!

Gradually, strange powers surged into his body, and strange powers completely different from the sluggish fruits filled the limbs of Fauxy.

Powerful! It seems like endless strength! Is this an animal-based Devil Fruit!?

Fukxi turned into a fox man about 3 meters tall, covered in silver-gray fur, with a cunning fox face on the nose and above, two pointed ears that appeared unusually large, and a large furry tail swept around behind him.

"Huh? From [Red Fox] to [Silver Fox]? Victor raised his eyebrows, a little surprised: "It seems that the same Devil Fruit will be slightly different after being taken by different people. But it made him sit on the nickname 'Silver Fox' Foxy......"

Foxy felt the powerful power that was constantly emerging in his body, and wanted to obey his heart and look up to the sky and howl, but after seeing Victor who was looking at his appearance from the corner of his eye, Foxy decisively obeyed his heart, and quickly reined in his strength and changed back to human form.

"The power control is good, you are very close to this [fox] fruit."

Victor applauded perfunctorily, and then looked at Foxey with interest: "Didn't explode and died, it seems that S· W has indeed completely removed the sluggish fruit from your body. ”

"Thank you, thank you." Foxy looked apprehensive and didn't know what Victor was going to do with him.

Victor looked at Foxie, who was kneeling on the floor, and said slowly: "The agreed [exchange] has been completed, the 'fox' is for you, and the 'slow' is mine." Now let me think, what am I going to do with you? ”

Foxy fell to his knees and shivered, not daring to say a word.

"I won't kill you, you know too much. Kill you, and you will not sin unto death. ”

The corners of Victor's mouth habitually raised a smile: "...... That's good, for the sake of your life, it seems that we need to do a new [exchange]. ”

A silver-white revolver quietly appeared in his hand: "Exchange your [memory] for [life], do you agree?" ”

“…… Agreed, I agree. ”

What else can Foxey say? You're amazing, you're right!

Bang——!!

With a gunshot, Foxy fainted and fell to the ground. At the same time, a light blue bubble with the word V quietly appeared in front of Victor.

He pulled out a fancy bottle, carefully stored the bubbles in it, and casually threw it into the zippered space.

After the chain fingers carried Fauxy out of the room, the room became empty again.

Victor sighed, found a chair and sat down, cocking his legs into deep thought.

The Bubble Fruit, a Devil Fruit that didn't play a big role in the original manga, actually has a very high potential.

For no other reason, the ability of the Bubble Fruit in the comics [CP9] Kalifa has shown the ability of a similar concept.

Her whole body can produce bubbles that can wash away anything, even power, and make the objects she touches extremely smooth, in short, stripped of friction.

Of course, it is not [deprivation] in the full sense of the word, at least there will be some remnants left.

But after eating this bubble fruit, the silver-white robot-type chain stand-in that he carefully constructed instantly burst out with incredible power! Just the moment he made eye contact, Victor was hit by the bubble that suddenly appeared beside him, and he was simply deprived of [consciousness] and fainted to the ground.

Later, after various tests, Victor was able to conclude that due to S· W was affected by the Chain Fruit, and after eating this Bubble Fruit, the two sides affected each other, resulting in a wonderful reaction - the Bubble Fruit's ability display [Shift]!

[Cleaning] was directly eliminated from the two core competencies of [Cleaning] and [Deprivation], and all conceptual abilities were concentrated on [Deprivation], and the ability display also changed from a large number of soap bubbles to a single shampoo bubble, which is more in line with the definition of [Bubble].

In exchange, the concept of [deprivation] is infinitely magnified! 'Sound', 'Friction', 'Consciousness', 'Bouncing', 'Stamina', 'Vision'...... Even things that exist only in concepts can be taken away. The deprived items are stored in special shampoo bubbles, and once the shampoo bubbles burst, the seized items are returned to their owners.

It seems that because the chain fruit of his own body has awakened, the ability to master the bubble fruit eaten by the chain stand-in has also reached a very terrifying level.

The brain-opening Victor has a new idea - can the 'Devil Fruit ability' be deprived of the ability?

As soon as he thought of it, Victor began to prepare for the experiment. Of course, this kind of dangerous experiment must not be found by his own men, so Victor has his eyes on the unlucky prisoner who has just arrived, 'Silver Fox' Fox.

After the prompting of the 'Apocalypse' and his own ideas, Victor devised a relatively safe plan so that the dispossessed themselves would not resist the dispossession process, which should greatly increase the success rate.

The three questions posed to Faulksie were also well-thought-out choices.

[The first question, what does the fruit look like?] 】

Choose the most suitable 'carrier' according to the Devil Fruit you eat, and maximize the success rate of transferring the Devil Fruit's ability.

[The second question is, do you have the ability to want more?] 】

Providing the other party with a list and allowing him to pick out a suitable replacement for himself to further lower his psychological defenses is also a necessary step in the exchange.

[The third question is, are you willing to exchange abilities?] 】

It is up to the other party to make the decision and admit the choice in person. In this way, instead of [Plunder] but [Exchange], the difficulty is further reduced.

Use the Overlord Color Domineering to stun the opponent, and use the Bubble Fruit Ability to extract the [Devil Fruit Ability] and transfer it to the prepared carrier.

It turned out to be perfect.

Afterwards, Victor asked Haoxue and Luo to strictly monitor and check Foxie's physical condition, and the results showed that he was no different from a normal person, and the sea floor stone and sea water no longer weakened and restrained him.

Finally, after completing the last step of [Exchange], after eating the Inu Fruit, not only did Foxy not explode and die like a person who normally ate two Devil Fruits, but the corresponding fruit ability also worked very smoothly.

Through [Apocalypse], Victor discovered that Fuksy had completely turned into a [Ability in the form of the Animal Canine Fruit 'Silver Fox'], and incidentally verified his previous speculation - the same fruit will be slightly adjusted after being taken by different people.

As for the life and death of Foxy himself, it is not a big question.

It stands to reason that Victor should decisively execute Foxy. But first of all, he had promised the other party to spare his life, and secondly, he still needed to continue to observe Fuxi's physical condition, this was the first living case of [Devil Fruit Ability Extraction Surgery], and every piece of data had its value.

First deprive him of his relevant memories, then put him in prison, and in the end, it really can't be done, and the childlike fruit of sugar can directly erase Foxy from this world.

The fewer people who know about it, the better, and now is not the time to show this ability to the world. The deprivation of the Devil Fruit's abilities is too shocking, and in history, only the Dark Fruit can extract the ability from the corpse of the capable, and once it is known by other large forces, it will inevitably cause huge disputes.

Anyway, he unexpectedly held in his hands a trump card that could change the situation.

It's getting closer and closer to the goal.
