Chapter 1156: The first lot: Fish-Fish Fruit, Ancient Species, Megalodon Form
A devil fruit that didn't look like an ordinary item. Everyone participating in the auction turned around and forgot about their previous offense, staring at the item in the tentacle monster's hand.
Being stared at from all directions at 360 degrees, the shy Mr. Koro's skin turned from yellow to pink once again. He used a tentacle that appeared out of nowhere to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"My distinguished guests are really enthusiastic. Don't worry, let me introduce it to you. This devil fruit does not appear in the universal devil fruit encyclopedia. In order to show its value, I will demonstrate it with my body." Teacher Sha's skin turned back to yellow, and this time his eyes were extremely serious, showing the attitude of a teacher.
In the luxurious and noisy auction hall, everyone's eyes were focused on waiting for the host's next move, and the atmosphere was tense and heated.
At this moment, the host, Mr. Koro, suddenly opened his mouth wide, grabbed the devil fruit with his tentacles, and swallowed it whole in one gulp.
In an instant, the auction hall fell silent. The expressions of the auctioneers changed from expectation to shock. Their eyes widened as if they had seen the most incredible thing in the world.
Some people gasped, some rubbed their eyes in disbelief, and whispers quickly spread among the crowd, "He actually took the devil fruit for himself!"
"What should I do? Is his body special enough to accommodate two devil fruits?"
The outside world thought that Koro-sensei had some kind of special devil fruit ability. He ate the second devil fruit in public. If he didn't explode and die, then his physique would be as special as Blackbeard Teach's.
Koro-sensei's body began to change. His once normal shape began to swell uncontrollably, like a balloon that was being continuously inflated.
I watched his limbs become thick and round, his abdomen bulged high, and every inch of his skin was stretched tightly, as if he was about to explode and die in the next second.
The auctioneers were all shocked by this sudden change and their eyes widened. They cried out in surprise. Mr. Koro also showed a bit of panic on his face. "I think I've messed up. Can anyone come and save me..."
The strong man who had just amazed everyone, in a blink of an eye, killed himself because of his own IQ. Some people sighed, some gloated over his misfortune, but there were always some smart people who would not be deceived.
Koro-sensei's skin began to twist and deform. His originally smooth surface became bumpy and his color gradually became mottled.
Slowly, his facial features began to shift, his head became round and big, his mouth opened wide, and he looked more and more like a puffer fish.
That bloated body was swaying, and every movement looked extremely funny. He tried hard to keep his balance, but his body like a fathead fish made his movements extremely clumsy, just like a fish struggling on land.
The puffer fish that Koro-sensei turned into had exposed skin that looked a bit like shark skin, and it bounced very elastically in the center court like a bouncing ball.
The guests closest to them couldn't hold back any longer, one person's laughter led to the laughter of everyone else, and the host's funny look brought the strangers closer together.
The host did not explode and die, but now he still believes that Koro-sensei will explode and die. His IQ is questionable. Saint Charlos, who stands on a high place, likes this monster Koro-sensei very much.
When Mr. Koro looked at his appearance, he sighed helplessly, then smiled bitterly and shook his head. The originally tense atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.
When he opened his mouth to speak, the fathead fish kept spitting bubbles, and Mr. Koro's voice turned into bubbling sound, "Don't laugh, I'm demonstrating the ability of an unknown devil fruit. If you eat it, you can turn into a fish"!
However, the ability to turn into a fish on land is still a bit weak. Devil fruit users are naturally weak to the sea, and the fish will be a waste if eaten.
Some customers who were unaware of the truth shook their heads to express their disinterest. Most of the world is surrounded by oceans, and the number of times one can fight in fresh water is limited.
Turning into a fish and fighting on land, you might die of dehydration before defeating the enemy. No one would be interested in the obvious disadvantages.
The Beasts Pirates ate artificial devil fruits. Even if the unlucky ones lost their emotions, the lucky ones gained the abilities of land animals. Instead of eating fish fruits of unknown origin, it is better to eat blind boxes like artificial devil fruits.
The fathead fish opened its mouth again, and Mr. Koro stretched out his tentacles and took out the fish-fish fruit that he had just swallowed intact, without even a trace of mucus on it.
The host didn't actually eat the devil fruit, he just played a joke on the audience to liven up the dull atmosphere.
Putting the devil fruit back on the tray, facing the slight doubts, Mr. Koro straightened his clothes and began to introduce it solemnly: "Through my demonstration just now, everyone should know that this is a fish-fish fruit. I can understand the guests' concerns."
There is a powerful fish-fish fruit in this world, but the one in Kaido's stomach is a noble mythical beast, which is essentially a dragon, not a fish.
For the past twenty years, Kaido, the King of Beasts, has relied on this fruit to call the shots in the second half of the Grand Line. He has firmly occupied the Country of Wano and made a fortune from the sale of seastone and arms.
If Big Mom had not obtained the Blue Dragon Fruit, Kaido would not have eaten the Blue Dragon Fruit, and the future might have changed, with one less Kaido the Beast and one more Blue Dragon the Demon.
Kaido would not be as threatening as he is now. If he survived the multiple encirclements of the navy and eventually became powerful enough to kill him, one would have to pay a price hundreds of times the initial one.
"After my identification, the demon in my hand should be the Animal Series · Fish-Fish Fruit · Ancient Species Megalodon form, which is the top predator among fishes." Mr. Koro ran to the backstage and put up a whiteboard, and painted on it with a brush made of tentacles.
Some pirates have never been to school. They may have seen sharks but don't know about the extinct Megalodon. It's not their fault that Koro-sensei is uneducated.
In the dim central platform, Koro-sensei's tentacles held the paintbrush firmly, and his movements were as smooth as flowing water.
In just one minute, a picture of a megalodon appeared on the paper, and its huge body seemed to break through the whiteboard and swim into the real world.
Its bloody mouth was open, and its huge teeth were extremely sharp, flashing a terrifying cold light, and each tooth seemed to contain endless murderous intent.
The guests stared at the whiteboard intently, exclaiming in amazement. Some of them had their eyes wide open, with an expression of disbelief on their faces.
Some people were discussing in a low voice why the megalodon, such a powerful fish, became extinct in modern times and was classified as an ancient species.
Not every fish in the sea is weak and will allow humans to prey on it to fill their stomachs. Megalodon is a clear exception.
