Chapter 667 Skeleton Surprise
...
"Gudong!"
“Ugh~~”
Teach lay on the ground and retched, but there was no sign of him exploding and dying.
"Hahaha, it seems that your teammates didn't lie to me. You can really eat the second devil fruit, Teach. Oh no, I should say that you didn't lie to them. You told them all this secret. You still want to hide it from me when so many people know it?"
Gel looked down at Blackbeard on the ground with a playful look on his face.
"Lord Gel! Lord Gel! I really didn't mean to hide this from you!"
Teach crawled in front of Ger and kept explaining.
"When I was a kid, I was sick and met a barefoot doctor. After checking my body, he said that I had amazing bones and a unique physique that is one in a million. Before, I just guessed that I might be able to eat a second devil fruit, but I was not sure if it was really possible. I said that just to scare them into letting me be the captain. I really didn't mean to deceive you!"
"I see. So, I was wrong about you, then?"
"No, no, it's my fault for not thinking it through. I should have told you, Lord Gel, in advance."
Tiqi shook his head hurriedly, then flattered again.
"I also want to thank you, sir, for helping me verify that my body can really take a second devil fruit!"
"Hahaha, you're welcome."
Gel's mouth curled up. It was rare for Heizi to speak so nicely.
"By the way, Master Gel, what devil fruit did you just give me?"
After reading the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia, Teach recalled it carefully, but still had no impression of the Devil Fruit he had just eaten. After carefully experiencing it, he could not sense any changes in his body. He could only ask, still holding out a glimmer of hope in his heart that he had eaten a powerful fruit that had not been recorded.
"Ah, don't worry about this. This fruit has no other effects except the side effect of being afraid of sea water. You are a landlubber to begin with, so this side effect has no effect on you. Hehe, it's really a bargain for you. You don't have to pay anything and you can eat one more devil fruit than others for free."
Gel said seriously.
?
"Ah this!?"
Is this human language?
Teach forced a smile on the surface, but his heart was bleeding!
His ambition!
His dream!
Just broke in half!
Teach suppressed the anger and the urge to fight back, and said with a smile.
"Thank you so much, Master Ger!!"
"Hahahaha, you're welcome. By the way, in order to bring us closer together and prevent misunderstandings when I find out later, is there anything else you forgot to tell me?"
Ger stared into Tikki's eyes and asked with a smile.
"Thank you for your understanding, sir. But if there is anything missing, I will definitely report it to you, sir. I will never dare to hide anything."
Tikki answered cautiously.
"Oh? Really? No more?"
Gel habitually touched the non-existent stubble on his chin.
"Conjectures count, for example, you can actually eat a third devil fruit or something like that?"
Tiqi shuddered when he heard that, and fell to his knees again with a plop.
"Master Gel, please spare my life! With my special physique, I can only eat two devil fruits and survive. How can I eat a third one? If you eat more, I will definitely die, Master Gel!"
Gel smiled and didn't rush to express his opinion. He just looked quietly at Teach who was kneeling at his feet.
I thought to myself that this little black guy was still playing dumb in front of me. After he obtained the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, he was clearly still thinking about plundering the Sweet-Sweet Fruit from Empress Hancock and starting to follow the route of a "Mei Ko Mei Ko Mei Ko~" idol with real talent.
Although it is still an unconfirmed speculation that Blackbeard can eat a third devil fruit, judging from all the signs, it is probably correct.
First of all, the logo of the Blackbeard Pirates is three skulls, and Blackbeard always carries three pistols. Also, Blackbeard's teeth, sometimes three are missing, sometimes four, and sometimes none are missing, repeatedly hinting at his uniqueness. In addition, he is preparing to plunder the Sweet-Sweet Fruit and the Operation Fruit for his own use, etc.
But the most important thing is that as a big villain, when the protagonist starts to cheat in the later stage, how can you survive without a qualitative change to improve your strength? How can you interact with the protagonist if you can't keep up with the version updates?
So Blackbeard can definitely eat the third devil fruit.
Seeing that Ger was still unmoved and eager to try, Teach became panicked.
"Master Gol, please think twice! With my ability to assist you, and your powerful military force, we can hunt for Devil Fruits on people with special abilities at will. Within ten years, we will be able to form a large group of powerful people with special abilities and become the strongest force that directly threatens the Navy and the World Government! Do we really want to ruin this great situation just for a guess?!"
Tiqi lowered his head and begged, but his face was as gloomy as water.
"Hahaha, don't be so nervous, little blackie. I was just joking with you. How is it possible that someone can eat devil fruits as a meal?"
Ger said with a laugh.
"That's right, Lord Gel is wise! Lord Gel is wise!"
Teach breathed a sigh of relief and shouted loudly.
In fact, Gur had already made up his mind that no matter whether Blackbeard could eat the third devil fruit or not, he would let him eat the third, or even the fourth devil fruit. However, he would have to wait until he plundered all the devil fruits of the ability users on the sixth floor. If it explodes, it will explode. He is enough and there is no need for any other villain!
"Well, we've stayed a little too long, and now that things have been resolved, we should get out of here."
Gel said, looking at the time.
"Excuse me for a moment, Kuroko. Come on, Yamato, put on the seastone handcuffs on him."
Gel said as he threw out a pair of seastone handcuffs and leg cuffs.
Along the way to Advance City, in addition to harvesting prisoners on the sixth floor, what Gel Shun obtained the most were seastone handcuffs and shackles. Most of the equipment for these ferocious pirates were high-quality seastone products from the seastone mines in Wano Country, with very high purity.
The prices for goods sold to the World Government through the Bra Chamber of Commerce are not cheap, and they can be sold again when they are brought back. Although Captain Gul has more money than he can spend, he always remembers that every grain of rice on the plate is hard-earned, and it is a fool not to take advantage of a bargain.
"Okay Captain."
Yamato took the order and stepped forward.
"Ah, this? That's not necessary, right, Lord Gel?"
Tikki looked pitiful.
"Hahaha, it's just a pair of seastone handcuffs. I have plenty of them. Why are you being so polite? You don't deserve them!"
Ger patted his shoulder and smiled.
"what?"
"No, Lord Gel, I'm not being polite. I mean, we are all family. I will never run away! You can't run away even if you want to!"
