Chapter 197 I Haven't Eaten the Fruit Yet
Chapter 197 I Haven't Eaten the Fruit Yet
"Whoo~"
Xuefeng let out a long sigh, took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood stains on his armor, and bent down to pick up a treasure chest of the dead.
"It's quite difficult."
She looked at the bodies of the explorers on the ground. She was worthy of her former title of unrivaled in the arena. Although she was a second-level explorer, she defeated a third-level explorer.
However, this is all thanks to the fact that they have been training on Kaido's ship for some time, and their domineering level has improved.
Even so, they fought hard, and in the end Xuebing had to eat the superhuman steel plate fruit to survive.
Yes, although Yukikaze’s adventure group had obtained several devil fruits before, they did not eat them. They were planning to take them out into the world and sell them.
This is mainly because the devil fruit is generally incompatible with other bloodlines, and the upper limit of its growth is relatively vague. The side effects are not a big deal and will disappear if you go to other worlds, but after choosing this bloodline, you have to give up many other excellent bloodlines.
As an ambitious space person, Xuefeng is not planning to eat a devil fruit. Even if she wants to, she thinks it has to be a mythical beast. She is not interested in eating ordinary devil fruits for fear of lowering her upper limit.
But the previous battles were too difficult. After all, they were all third-level explorers. Even if they had not improved at all in the past few months since entering the world, their basic attributes were still around 55 points.
Therefore, except for Yukikaze, the other two people in her group ate devil fruits during the battle.
Of course it is impossible to make good use of the power of the fruit at the last minute, but the devil fruit will increase its attributes as long as it is eaten, and the attributes are real combat power.
Xuebing's Steel Plate Fruit is quite suitable for his role as a tank, but the female priest with a lot of milk in their team was in a miserable situation. She ate a Rat Fruit to save her life.
It's not a mole fruit. So far, I haven't discovered any abilities after eating it. Even the ability to dig holes is not very good. It will become very ugly after turning into an animal.
Women always love beauty, and explorers are no exception. For a moment, the female priest Xuetuan was in tears. Not only was her bloodline limit locked, but she also turned into a mouse girl.
"The fog is so thick, don't we need to go help Uncle Lu?"
Runti crawled out from the cracks in the ruins and glanced at the battlefield in the distance, feeling a little worried.
She had a good time in the Beasts Pirates during this period. After Lu Li's guidance, she also understood that if Kaido had not intended, she and her brother would not have been able to obtain the fruit.
For a moment, she felt that this big family was still a bit warm. As Lu Li was the one who had taken good care of her siblings during this period, she was naturally grateful.
Originally, she thought that since Uncle Lu could kill even a rear admiral, he should be able to walk around freely in a small place like Sky Island. However, the other side was in a tough fight.
"Sister, there are cries everywhere. I'm so scared."
Peggy Wan hid behind Runti, looking timid.
Runti raised her hand and hit Peggy Wan, "You are useless. Uncle Lu will defeat all the bad guys."
"But we are pirates. Aren't we the bad guys?"
Peggy Wan complained.
After hearing this, Runti was furious and stepped on Peggy Wan's instep, "How dare you talk back!"
"It hurts, sister..."
Peggy Wan complained, and suddenly raised her hand and pointed at the fog, "Look, Uncle Lu!"
Upon hearing this, Xuefeng and the others turned around and saw that the fog was parted for a moment, and Lu Li was actually blasted out by the light cannon.
Lu Li crashed into more than a dozen houses before he finally stopped, and a large charred hole appeared on his left shoulder.
"Fuck, could Boss Lu be defeated?"
Xue Bing saw this scene and exclaimed, "Sister, should we…"
"Shut up, it's not over yet."
Xuefeng scolded, she knew what Xuebing wanted to say. They had just fought a great battle and were exhausted, so it was not realistic for them to help Lu Li now.
If Lu Li lost, Shenquan would definitely clear out the Sky Island. In Shenquan's eyes, these elite explorers were all treasure chests of the dead.
Therefore, if you want to run, it's best to do it now. As long as you escape into the white sea and hold on for half a day, it will be time to return.
But she didn't want to leave yet. It wasn't because she was loyal, but because she hadn't found any possible historical text or hidden information in Bica.
You have to know that Enel's Ark Motto was not something he came up with out of thin air, but was made with the blueprints he got from Sky Island Bika. This shows that this island is by no means simple, and there may be more hidden things than Sky Island Gaya.
Considering their previous analysis, the Sky Island people came down from the moon, mastered advanced technology, and established a huge kingdom eight hundred years ago. So there are probably many "high-tech" drawings hidden on this island.
To make a bold guess, the drawings of Ark Maxim are most likely the design drawings of the ancient weapon "Ultra King"!
They couldn't take Enelu's unfinished Ark away, but they could take Uranus's design drawings. If they could return to the space and build it, such a thing would be of great help to an adventure group.
Even if they can't take it away, discovering this blueprint will definitely bring them a lot of world exploration.
"Sister, are we too greedy?"
The female priest Xuetuan was a petite girl with a lot of breasts. She was still traumatized by the battle just now, and now that she saw Lu Li was at a disadvantage, she wanted to run away.
"Greed? If you don't get greedy here, you will die sooner or later."
Xuefeng said coldly, "And I believe him. He is the man who defeated me."
As she spoke, she waved her hand to signal the others to follow. Now that the explorers had largely withdrawn, Sky Island was relatively safe except for the battlefield between Lu Li and Shen Quan. This was a good opportunity for them to sneak in and explore.
"Ah? Aren't we going to help?" Runti was a little anxious when she saw Xuefeng and his men walking to the other side, thinking that Uncle Lu's men were unreliable.
"No, he can handle it himself."
Xuefeng said, "That little injury is nothing."
She had fought with Lu Li in the arena. At that time, she had an absolute advantage in attributes, and of course she had injured Lu Li, so she knew how outrageous Lu Li was.
As if to confirm her words, Lu Li walked out of the ruins. As he took a step, the horrific bloody hole on his shoulder began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the wound disappeared in a moment.
"Reply? It seems that you are really a qualified god of death."
Shenquan saw this scene in the fog with an amused look on his face. The battle had come to this point, and since everyone was about to return, he spoke more and more unscrupulously.
Anyway, with all the things he did in the pirate world, he is not planning to come to this world again, because after a careful investigation by the world government, they will find out that he was the one causing trouble in the whole city, and if he is not strong enough next time, he will probably become a rat crossing the street.
"So, how many more can you eat?"
Lu Li said as he stared at the mist that was coming towards him.
Shenquan's light cannon is very powerful. Even if you use Duankong to defend against it, you can't completely block it. You can only hold out for a moment and then be blasted away.
It’s not that Duankong’s defense is weak, but Shenquan’s light cannon seems to have some kind of destructive property, and the effect of attacking energy barriers is very strong.
On the contrary, if he could predict accurately and directly use Liuying and Bachan to wrap the prisoner demon and use them to meet the light cannon, he would be able to cut it open without getting hurt.
The reason why he was injured just now was that Shenquan's spiritual attributes had risen again, and the power and speed of the light cannon had increased, catching him off guard.
Having fought to this point, he didn't believe that Shenquan had any temporary tricks hidden, so the improvement of Shenquan's attributes could only be because he had eaten another devil fruit.
Devil Fruits are bloodline items that take effect immediately after being eaten, and the attribute bonus is very direct.
"Don't be so stubborn, you are no match for me now."
Shenquan tried to attack his heart. He was actually in a bad mood because he was forced to eat another devil fruit, which occupied his last slot.
He originally intended to reserve this grid for the Thunder Fruit or the fruit of a thunder-type mythical beast.
Lu Li's observation Haki was unexpectedly strong. Even if he was wrapped in fog, he could always react in time to meet his light cannon. This forced him to find a way to further increase his power and break through.
Therefore, he used a fruit that he had originally planned to take out to sell. It was a superhuman dream fruit. He was not sure about its specific ability at the moment because he had no time to develop it. It was only stated in the details of the space appraisal that this fruit could add 4 points of spiritual attributes to him, so he ate it.
With the increase of spiritual attribute, his magic output ability naturally improved as well, that’s why he was able to injure Lu Li just now.
Lu Li used the Prison Demon to block part of it, but was still hit on the shoulder by a part of the light cannon that was cut off. If he was hit directly in the vitals, he would probably die on the spot.
"Being brave?"
Lu Li's face was gloomy, with strange rage, "But you, do you know what you did?"
This time it was Shenquan's turn to be puzzled. Didn't he just eat a fruit? It's not like he hasn't hurt you before, and you haven't been so angry. "It seems that you have foreseen your defeat."
Lu Li was surrounded by a dark red domineering aura. Under the Thunder Breathing Technique, the golden thunder and the domineering aura intertwined and transformed into red lightning. It made his hair stand on end, like an angry Shura.
"How dare you eat my fruit!"
Lu Li said angrily as he took a step forward, his sword moving with all its might. The endless fog was stirred up by him and was sucked away as it dispersed behind him.
He moved forward, running under Shenquan's strange and shocked gaze, and killed towards Shenquan's real body in the fog.
boom--
In a hurry, Shenquan had to fight back with the holy sword again. The shock waves generated by the attacks of both sides drove away the water mist, allowing the residents of Sky Island outside the battlefield to see the scene clearly.
Lu Li had a furious look on his face and swung his sword continuously. His attacks were as intense as a storm and in a flash, he had already cut off a lot of Shenquan's life source and soul source.
Shenquan immediately flapped his wings and at the same time controlled the water mist to condense into a stream that rushed over from the side of Lu Li, separating the two of them.
He wanted to complain, what do you mean by your fruit? What kind of bandit mentality do you have?
Also, do you think you can definitely get my Dead Man's Chest?
Shenquan was slashed repeatedly by Lu Li, suffering some injuries, and his soul source also dropped again. Even if his divine bloodline could be restored, it would not be infinite under the current circumstances, which gave him a headache.
Before the two sides separated, Shenquan fired a beam of light, forcing Lu Li to dodge.
With Shenquan's current attack power, Lu Li didn't dare to use the Prison Demon to cut his light cannon. Not only would he be injured, but the durability of his Prison Demon would also be reduced.
After Lu Li stood still, he did not rush towards the sacred spring again. He just tilted his head and looked at the sacred spring. "So, is this all you have?"
Shenquan's expression control instantly failed at this sentence, and obvious anger was reflected on his face. He didn't understand why Lu Li could still be so calm.
It was clear that Lu Li was completely suppressed by him in terms of attributes, and the timing and terrain were all on his side. He held the initiative on the battlefield and could fight or retreat. He used light cannons to injure Lu Li several times, but Lu Li was still so calm.
This taunt made Shenquan bizarrely furious. As both were pioneers, who was worse than who?
As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. When pioneers from different spaces meet, there must be a fight of life and death!
Seeing the anger on Shenquan's face, Lu Li simply said, "I haven't eaten the fruit yet."
