A Natural Monster, Starting With Dark Fruit

Returning to the area where the sailboat was parked, Xia Yan took Carina and Nami aboard Mad Torega's sailboat.

Turning around and looking at the two women with empty hands, Xia Yan seemed to remember something and asked, "Where is your treasure?"

"Uh...uh hehe, what kind of treasure? We don't have any treasure!"

The two women's hearts skipped a beat, and then Carina said with an awkward smile.

Nami also had a forced smile.

Xia Yan almost couldn't help laughing when she looked at the two women with evasive eyes, as if they didn't have three hundred taels of silver.

I saw him putting down the body of Mad Torrega, pretending to be unhappy and saying: "What are you afraid of? If I were interested in your treasure, I would have robbed you before."

"Forget it, seeing is believing, let me show you the strength of your future Master."

After finishing speaking, Xia Yan pointed at Nami and said, "Go to the cabin's restaurant and get me some fruit from the refrigerator."

"……yes!"

Nami, who was still in a state of shock by Xia Yan, ran into the cabin very obediently and quickly took out an ordinary fruit.

Taking the fruit from Nami, Xia Yan skillfully released the black mist and wrapped the body of Mad Torega.

It's just different from the previous two attempts to seize the ability. This time, Xia Yan increased his intensity in releasing the black mist, even covering himself.

The ink-like black mist formed a huge black ball and appeared in front of Carina and Nami.

Looking at the black ball in front of them, both Carina and Nami recalled the scene where the treasure hunter group was swallowed up just now. They couldn't help but swallowed and took a few steps back subconsciously.

The black ball just formed and quickly dissipated.

All of this black mist was absorbed back into the black hole space by Xia Yan.

When the bodies of Xia Yan and Mad Torrega reappeared, Carina, who was very observant, immediately discovered that the fruit in Xia Yan's hand had changed.

The fruit in Xia Yan's hand just now was just an ordinary fruit that could be held in one hand and was neither big nor small.

But now, the size of this fruit has increased a lot, turning into a special fruit that is completely silvery white, with special spiral patterns on the peel, and seems to have chain patterns.

Wait...chains? !

A flash of light flashed through her mind, and Carina's beautiful blue eyes suddenly widened.

"This...couldn't this be..."

The girl with extremely strong psychological quality couldn't help but stutter at this time.

There is no way, that conjecture is really too incredible.

"Carina, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at his shocked partner, Nami couldn't help but asked curiously.

Xia Yan, on the other hand, was very satisfied with Carina's reaction and full of appreciation for this girl's observation skills.

He nodded, confirming Carina's guess: "Yes, this fruit is the Devil Fruit that the guy just ate."

"You're... you're lying, is this Devil Fruit?"

Nami finally realized something was wrong and looked at the changed fruit in Xia Yan's hand with an expression of disbelief.

"hiss……"

Carina also took a breath of cold air, and then she had another crazy guess, and couldn't help but ask: "M... Master, is it because of the black mist that you are able to take away the secret treasures at sea that others have eaten, or is it because of all ability users? Can we take away each other’s abilities?”

"Your mind is very powerful, this is my unique ability."

Xia Yan admired this girl even more and introduced herself: "My name is Xia Yan. I am a user with Logia Dark Fruit, Paramecia Door Fruit, and Paramecia Staring Fruit abilities."

"So...so awesome!"

Carina and Nami, who didn't know what the concept of three-fruited ability users was, said sternly.

Judging from their expressions, Xia Yan also knew that they didn't know much about Devil Fruit yet, and they should only stay at the level of secret treasures at sea.

Therefore, he did not explain too much, but threw away the Devil Fruit in his hand and said: "The price of Devil Fruit starts with a guarantee of 100 million beli. Do you think I have such ability, and I will still like you?" That little treasure?"

Carina and Nami shook their heads subconsciously.

"I'll give you half an hour to get your treasure back. I don't want to come to this uninhabited island again."

Xia Yan left these words and turned around and walked into the cabin.

Looking at Xia Yan's back, Carina and Nami got off the boat obediently, ready to retrieve their treasure.

"Carina..."

Along the way, Nami looked back at the sailboat many times.

After seeing that Xia Yan was not on the bow of the boat, she finally couldn't help but look at Carina, wanting to say something.

"Shh!"

Carina seemed to know what Nami wanted to say, and couldn't help but put her index finger in front of her mouth.

Looking at Nami who was hesitant to speak, Carina leaned into her ear and whispered: "This is a test."

"……Uh-huh."

Nami, who has worked together for so long and has a strong rapport with Carina, instantly understood the meaning of her partner's words and nodded repeatedly.

What she wanted to say just now was to ask Carina if they should take the opportunity to hide.

The uninhabited island is so big, if they really hide, it will not be easy for that person to find them.

If they find that the other party is looking for them, and they take the opportunity to steal a boat and leave, there is a high probability that they can escape.

But Carina's words made Nami give up this idea.

Because she remembered that the way that person appeared was by opening the door through the air and coming out of a green space.

At this moment, that person might be in that space, watching them silently.

If they hide, the other party might come out.

How should they explain then?

Just like Carina said, this is a test.

In fact, Carina thinks more than Nami.

To be precise, what she was thinking about was not Xia Yan's test, but her future plans.

This Master was obviously different from the captain they had ‘taken refuge’ with before.

This is a strong person, a strong person that Carina has never seen since her debut, and even broke her world view.

What does it mean to be able to capture the Devil Fruit?

Even if Carina doesn't know enough about Devil Fruit, she still knows how terrifying this method is.

Becoming the maid of such a strong man might be an opportunity.

Carina, who was caught by Mad Torrega and felt the suffocation of death for the first time, already found that they could not go on like this.

This time she was caught, and Xia Yan rescued her.

If they are taken away next time, I can’t imagine what kind of treatment they will receive.

If they want to survive in this sea, they need to take refuge with the truly strong.

This Master meets this condition.

Get along with him for a while first and see if this Master is reliable and worth following!

Carina thought to herself.

"Is this a reflection of the extremely flexible mind in reality?"

Carina didn't know that all her thoughts were seen by Xia Yan's mind-reading eyes.

Seeing this girl, she saw through his test in an instant, and she already recognized the reality and was ready to seize this opportunity. Xia Yan not only sighed: "I really found a treasure."

Yes, I found a treasure.

Xia Yan originally thought that Nami would be the biggest gain from this heroic rescue trip.

Unexpectedly, this female character who only appeared in the theatrical version would give him such a big surprise.

The girl's intelligence, reaction and observation skills have refreshed Xia Yan's understanding.

This is a real world, and you must not underestimate those characters who only occupy a small space in the original work.

In the real world, these people who appear rarely are all relics buried in the dust.
