I was born to be a king

Crocus smiled and comforted him,"It's okay, Shanks, it's good that Roger's child doesn't have to bear the burden of this fruit.""

"This world cannot be saved by Roger's family alone!"

Kurokas did not ask what Roger's child was called or where he was.

Because he knew that the fewer people knew the whereabouts of Roger's child, the safer Roger's child would be.

Shanks nodded.

"Well, I'm leaving now, Uncle Crocus!"

Shanks returned to the boat and waved to Crocus below.

Crocus smiled and nodded, saying:"Shanks, go ahead and complete your mission!"

Bendik Snake asked Liya and others,"Do you have a permanent pointer to the Drum Island?"

"If not, we will choose the route to Whiskey Peak!"

Liya nodded and said,"We have some. We purchased them in Rogue Town before."

In fact, in order to facilitate Noah's travel, Liya bought all the permanent pointers available in the store.

Bendik Snake smiled and said,"That's good, so we don't have to run that route. After all, there is a small garden there. If we use a recording pointer to store magnetism, it will probably take a year, and then we will have to run around again."

If you can't wait for the pointer to be filled with magnetism, you can only run to other islands to re-record new magnetism.

In the Grand Line, where you can only rely on the pointer to determine the direction, running around is not a good idea.

If you are not careful, you may end up in one place for several months.

Food during this period is not a big deal, at most you can eat fish.

But the fresh water resources may be drunk up.

Liya asked Michelle to take the helm. Xibel has been driving the ship for too long, and entering the Upside-Down Mountain just now has consumed a lot of her mind.

Not far ahead.

There is a gorgeous and huge ship.

Sitting in the first seat on the ship is a man wearing a pirate captain's coat, a towering bicorne hat, and an anchor pattern.

There are two bodyguards standing on the left and right, one with a long knife on his waist, and the other with two guns on his waist.

At this moment, he is looking at his kneeling subordinates below with a serious face and irritability.

"Haven't you found anything that can be used as a gift after so long?"

The kneeling subordinate below is obviously also a master. He has a pair of arms that can run horses, a pair of big chest muscles that make countless women ashamed, and a pair of thin legs that are extremely disproportionate to his body. All of these show that he is a master of physical skills. There is also a rebellious look in his eyes. Although his expression is respectful, there is no fear on his face.

Obviously, he is very confident in his own strength and his position in the boss's heart.

"Boss Umit, we have searched all over the world but found nothing worth showing off. I heard someone from the Chamber of Commerce reported that there is a kind of delicious fruit on the island of Bochea in the Grand Line. How about we go and have a look?"

The man reported his pre-planned itinerary.

But Umit said disdainfully:"Send fruit? Jace, do you think I've been sitting in this position for too long!"

"How delicious can fruit be?"

Umit said, feeling irritated.

Although the King of Shipping, one of the six kings of the dark world, seems very impressive to outsiders, he is actually nothing to the monsters on the sea!

If he didn't have the secret of the ocean current that travels quickly across the entire ocean, he would have died in a corner of the ocean.

Now his subordinates have begun to explore the secret of his use of the ocean current.

So his position is the same as that of the News King Morgans, wandering around all day.

The World Government would not mind catching him and interrogating him about the information of the ocean current.

Now, he has come to the first half of the Grand Line.

"Yes, yes, Jace, you don't want the boss to cause the aunt's anger."

The man holding the gun next to Umit squinted at Jace jokingly.

"Reagan, you!"

Jace glared at him angrily, then hurriedly explained to Umit:"Boss, this fruit has the mellow fragrance of milk, and the sweetness and juiciness of fruit, and each fruit grown on a tree tastes different. The reason why it is not famous is that it is a deserted island, and this fruit is not easy to store."

"But with the deep ocean currents, it will definitely be delivered to Auntie within the fresh period."

Umit ignored Reagan's words. As long as he was not confused, he knew that these two people were taking the opportunity to step on each other.

But he was curious about the fruit that Jace mentioned again and again.

"If it is true as you said, then it is a good gift."

Umit said, supporting his chin with his hand.

He knew that Auntie was a big dessert lover, and this kind of fruit that can be used as dessert can actually satisfy Auntie's needs.

He also understood the way of balance, and said:"If this is true, then the escort mission for the next three months will be handed over to you and Duke, and Reagan will take care of the chores."

Jace nodded happily and shouted:"That's really him thanking the boss."

After saying that, Jace glared at the root with a gloating look.

Staying with Umit not only allows you to take the opportunity to secretly learn how to use deep ocean currents, but also allows you to enjoy traveling around the world with Umit. This kind of life is much more comfortable than managing chores here.

It is said that Umit learned this from the previous Shipping King. Later, the previous Shipping King suddenly died. It was said that he was assassinated by his opponent, but who knows the truth!

Anyway, after his death, Umit quickly took over the position of Shipping King.

Umit seems to have learned it well now. His bodyguards are always replaced, and every few years, the bodyguards around him die strangely in a shipwreck.

The subordinates understand that this is a race between life and death. It depends on whether you finish learning first and grab the position to enjoy wealth and glory, or whether you will be taken advantage of by Umit and become a withered bone in the wind.

Although most of the subordinates are traitors, there are exceptions. Duke, the swordsman beside Umit, is the one who follows him wholeheartedly because he has received his favor.

Umit is very confident in him, because he is a pure swordsman.

"Boss, there seems to be a box floating below, I wonder what it is?"

A sailor ran over to report to Jace.

Jace frowned and said,"Is it a sacrifice to the sea god?"

"Uh...it doesn’t seem so!"

"Never mind, just fish it out first!"

""Yes!"

The sailor took the order and left in a hurry.

Jace said a little embarrassedly:"I'm sorry, boss. I don't know you."

Umit waved his hand and had no opinion.

For him, he wished that no one in the world knew him.

He was not a pirate, and fame was dispensable to him. What he wanted was to make a fortune in silence.

The sailors were holding a scoop net to pull up the box, but they were always pushed away from the net by a small wave.

After several unsuccessful attempts, the sailors' foreheads were sweating.

Jace looked at the sailors' clumsiness from the side, and the tic-tac-toe on his forehead burst out. He roared with fierce eyes and sharp teeth:

"Idiot, if you can't catch it, let someone jump in and get it! You guys are not raised to eat dry food!"

""Yes! Yes! Yes!"

The frightened sailors trembled subconsciously, and nodded their heads in response.

Soon, a sailor who looked very strong jumped down.

He skillfully used freestyle to paddle to the side of the box, and then was about to hug the box.

The sailors cheered,"Well done, Yuke!"

Yuke also smiled, but soon his joy turned into sorrow.

A big wave came over, and instantly separated the box and the man.

Seeing the box being pushed farther and farther away by the waves, Jace said angrily with disdain:"Useless thing!"

As he said that, he jumped off the boat with a physical skill similar to the moon step on his feet, and then stomped a few feet in the air quickly.

Puff!

With a few accelerated steps, Jace came to the side of the box, picked up the box with one hand, and then stomped hard on the water surface, as if stepping on the ground, and jumped into the air again, and finally returned to the boat with a few empty steps.

"Boss, you’re awesome!"

"Did you see that? The boss was running in the air just now!"

"Yeah, Boss is amazing."

……

A group of sailors surrounded Jace and flattered him.

Jace also laughed loudly, obviously very satisfied with the compliments from his brothers. If it were in the New World, no one would think it was anything special.

Jace opened the box in his hand and found that it contained an orange-white devil fruit.

Jace was so happy that he wanted to hide the fruit. After all, he was a strong physical athlete. If he had a suitable devil fruit, he would definitely be able to reach a higher level.

Thinking of closing the box, he told the brothers around him not to tell anyone.

But before he could close the box, one of his brothers shouted:

"Boss, what kind of fruit is this? It looks pretty good!"

"What kind of taste do you have? She looks so weird."

"You idiots, this is obviously a devil fruit!"

A little brother who had just praised Jace the loudest came out triumphantly, folded his arms and smiled,"It's a secret treasure of the sea. I heard that eating it can gain a kind of magical power, but the price is that you can't swim!"

"Huh? Can't swim? Who would eat this?"

"Yes, yes.……"

Jace was so angry at these ignorant guys that he almost had a brain congestion.

A plant!

Why are you so loud! Are you afraid that the old man on the boat can't hear you?

Just now, Jace felt comfortable listening to them talking, but now he felt uncomfortable. He wanted to stuff shit into their mouths one by one.

Sure enough

"Jace! I heard you caught a devil fruit? Bring it here to me!"

The boat was so small, and Umit was delighted when he heard his brothers talking about devil fruits.

As long as the devil fruit is not too useless, what other gift would be more thoughtful than giving a devil fruit?

Thinking of this, he immediately ordered Jace to bring the fruit over.

Jace was like ten thousand horses running across the grassland, and the devil fruit that was about to reach his mouth flew away again.

Now he can only pray that the devil fruit is a rubbish fruit, at least to make him feel a little better.

"OK, boss, right away!"

Jace handed the fruit to Umit happily. After all, the fruit was definitely lost, and the goodwill that he had just gained with great difficulty should not be lost.

Umit was very satisfied with Jace's decisiveness. He decided to fulfill the reward even if he didn't need the fruit.

After Umit opened the treasure chest, his pupils shrank.

This is... the hot fruit!

As one of the underground kings of the dark world, Umit had of course read the devil fruit encyclopedia, and he often flipped through it to find fruits for Big Mom.

He was very impressed by this fruit.

It has an extremely high temperature, which alone makes this fruit attract the attention of many people.

Umit's first thought was to use this fruit to exchange for more benefits from Big Mom.

After all, he didn't know how many traitors he had, and giving them food would simply aid the enemy. As for Duke, he was a pure swordsman, otherwise, with his skills, he would have found a suitable devil fruit for him long ago.

And Big Mom once asked him to find this fruit. If he let someone eat it, wouldn't that anger Big Mom?

He didn't expect that this scene was seen by someone in the distance.

"Huh? That person seems to have a devil fruit in his hand."
