Chapter 1224 The Last Item of the Auction: Thunder Dragon Fruit
With the disappearance of the three troublemakers and Urahara Kisuke's act of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, order in the Pandora venue was restored to normal.
The backstage staff came on stage and cleaned up the central stage in all aspects. The auction continued. As long as Mr. Koro was thick-skinned enough, he could just pretend that what happened just now had not happened.
The auction process lasted for several more hours. The mid- and low-end items were sold at a good price. Finally, it was the last item. After it was sold, this grand auction was about to come to a successful conclusion.
The waitress brought a tray, and Mr. Koro didn't waste anyone's time any longer. He took off the red cloth on the tray, revealing the true appearance of the final devil fruit.
A devil fruit that looks like a pineapple lies quietly on the tray. The dazzling golden flesh and skin seem to penetrate the oppressive darkness of the stage under the light.
The exposed flesh petals are strangely shaped, like streaks of lightning, as if they contain endless energy and may burst out with amazing power at any time.
The devil fruit had such a strange appearance that the air around it seemed to become hot because of its existence. The guests held their breath, with only the last item in their eyes.
The powerful auction once again produced an unexpected devil fruit, making most of the guests forget their previous unpleasantness. They were eager to know what kind of power they would gain after eating it.
"As the last item to appear in the grand auction, the quality must be good. The devil fruit in my hand belongs to the animal-type devil fruit, the Dragon Dragon Fruit, the Mythical Beast Type, the Thunder Dragon Form"!
The mythical beast fruit in the host's hand is not an artificial devil fruit, but a dragon fruit that was accidentally obtained by the organizer of the auction.
The dragon that can control lightning has top-notch attack and defense power. From some comparison angles, its values are even better than those of the natural devil fruit.
"I cannot give a conclusion as to which is stronger, the mythical beast-type Thunder Dragon Fruit or the nature-type Thunder Fruit. It depends on the personal qualities of the ability user." Later, Mr. Koro praised the Thunder Dragon Fruit in his hand in all aspects.
Ordinary people can think of the moves. Using the Thunder Dragon Fruit, you can discharge electricity, and your body will have endless thunder power, which can be transformed into various moves to deal with enemies in various scenes.
The Thunder Dragon Fruit can also cause thunder in the sky, but its effect is inferior to that of the Thunder Fruit.
The user of the Thunder Dragon Fruit can devour all matter and energy with electrical properties, and use all kinds of electricity to strengthen himself. The more electricity he devours, the stronger he becomes. This is considered a standard feature of the Dragon Fruit.
Theoretically, any electric current moves released by the user of the Thunder Fruit will be swallowed up harmlessly by the user of the Thunder Dragon Fruit and used for their own purposes.
In more extreme cases, if the user of the Thunder Dragon Fruit can catch the user of the Thunder Fruit, they can eat the user alive and digest all of the natural lightning energy without leaving any behind.
The user of the Thunder Dragon Fruit can greatly stimulate his or her body through thunder, enhancing his or her combat effectiveness in close combat, and achieving a qualitative leap in speed, strength and intensity.
The user of the Thunder Dragon Fruit, when developed to a certain level, can even turn himself into lightning, similar to the elementalization of the natural system, but the duration of lightning is limited and cannot be maintained for a long time.
Thunder-turned-light can deprive the enemy of their vision, but for those who cannot use the ability of the Pika Pika Nomi, converting light into actual damage can be considered an auxiliary means.
The dragon-type fruit has a biggest trump card, which is the possibility of falling into a runaway dragon transformation. Those with weak wills may lose themselves and be forever transformed into a thunder dragon and unable to change back into a human.
Half-dragon transformation and dragon transformation provide the user with a large amount of power, so they should be used with caution. The Iron Dragon has gone berserk in the Sky Curtain, which can be regarded as a proof of Koro-sensei's point of view.
"Mastering the Thunder Dragon, specializing in thunder and lightning, the thunder force released is stronger than the Azure Dragon Fruit, and it is one of the mythical beasts with the highest destructive power. Bringing it to auction is enough to prove the sincerity of the organizer."
The host looked regretful. If the devil fruit could take effect in him and he had to choose between the Rain Rain Fruit and the Thunder Dragon Fruit, he would most likely choose the latter.
The Thunder Dragon Fruit inherits the traditional advantages of the animal system, which is that it has thick blood and is resistant to attacks. After being eaten, it will be immediately converted into combat power.
It would take several years of training to transform the Rain Rain Fruit into the power of a natural disaster after eating it, and there is a possibility of death in the middle of the process and being killed by a powerful and domineering person.
The starting price of the final item was set at 15 billion berries, and each increase in price was no less than 1 million berries, which directly discouraged most of the guests who had no money.
"We have finally waited for this. We have come a long way this time and we cannot return empty-handed."
"Spend all the money you have on you. If it's not enough, find another way. You must get the Thunder Dragon Fruit."
As a criminal waiting for punishment, Foz F needs to prove himself to be loyal enough to the Beasts Pirates and completely cut off his past.
If Jack, who is criticized by the group, messes up this mission, Boss Kaido will no longer show mercy and will take back the title of disaster. Jack will join the Flying Six and become the seventh person.
The two frustrated men got together to seize this last chance. The number buttons near their seats popped up, and Foz F entered the price without hesitation and put all his assets at the stake, a full 30 billion berries.
There were two highest bidders in the first round, both offering bids of 3 billion. The competition for the Thunder Dragon Fruit was so fierce that when the second round of bidding was about to begin, Jack was dumbfounded because he didn't bring enough money.
"Don't panic, we still have external help. The young master must have a lot of pocket money following the birdman." Foz F could only try his luck and put his hope on Yamato.
During the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Foz F took the initiative to contact his young master, and the two exchanged new Den Den Mushi numbers. Unexpectedly, it would be really useful at the critical moment.
Dial the Den Den Mushi of Young Master Yamato and try to borrow money in a humble tone. Then the Beasts Pirates will not default on the debt and will pay it back to Birdman with interest.
Yamato knew the current situation of the unlucky duo, so he did not choose to add insult to injury at this time. Instead, he wanted to help as much as possible, and the Godfather agreed to lend them money.
Morgans just needed connections, so he got close to the Beasts Pirates and established a good relationship with Kaido. He was very interested in the evolved beasts that appeared near Onigashima, and in his opinion, it was a good deal with little money.
With the financial support from the News King, Foz F and Jack started a price war with the Celestial Dragons. They proposed 40 billion berries in the second round of bids, defeating other bidders with a slight advantage.
In the third round of bidding, Foz F was very ruthless and offered the highest price of 50 billion berries, which was far higher than the second place price of 8 million berries, and he successfully won the bid for the Thunder Dragon Fruit.
The host and organizers did not expect that the Thunder Dragon Fruit could eventually be sold for 50 billion berries. The previous calculations were too conservative, thinking that it could only be sold for 40 billion at most.
With the money exchanged, the fruit was delivered to Foz F personally, which drew cheers from the Onigashima group outside the camera.
In the eyes of the Beasts Pirates, although spending 50 billion berries to buy a powerful dragon-type fruit was too expensive, they did not regret it.
The potential of the dragon fruit can be proved by Kaido. Maybe in the future, Onigashima can cultivate a second real dragon.
