One Piece: Fist of the World

"This guy should have a lifeline. If we don't deal with it as soon as possible, I'm afraid Doflamingo will catch up."

Neru reminded him.

Rhodes had said before that he wanted to pick a good day to try to obtain the Devil Fruit, but considering the risk of being chased by the Shichibukai along the paper of life, it was better to kill him now.

Hearing Nailu's reminder, Rhodes instantly became alert.

He almost forgot about this.

In particular, Dressrosa, where Doflamingo is located, is located in the second half of the Grand Route. It is the section of route sandwiched between the North Sea and the West Sea. You only need to cross the windless zone to get directly from the New World. Arrive at Beihai.

As for Doflamingo's Thread Fruit ability, he can move by winding the thread on clouds in the sky, and he is fully capable of chasing him across the windless zone.

If he faced Doflamingo now, Rhodes would not be sure of victory.

"Fortunately, I have you, Nailu!"

After patting Nailu on the shoulder, Rhodes was filled with joy.

"But let's kill that thin dog first and use him as a cushion."

"mat?"

Several people looked puzzled when they heard the words coming out of Rhodes' mouth.

"Well~ although I can't choose the auspicious day of the zodiac, at least I've chosen the less important ones first. This is a sense of ritual!"

"Although I don't know what you are talking about, it is exactly what I want."

After taking a nap, Luo, who had recovered most of his strength, stretched out his palm, and light blue light flashed in his palm.

"ROOM - isolation room!"

A light blue halo appeared, covering the two captured people and the surrounding fruits.

"It seems more reliable."

Relying on the experience of being treated by Luo many times, Rhodes made a judgment.

Compared to the last time he killed Bellamy, his abilities this time feel more solid.

"Yes, that area is almost completely in two dimensions with us."

Neru nodded in affirmation.

His experience is quite special, and he feels this point more deeply.

"What are you..."

After all, he is a family cadre who follows Doflamingo, but Gladius still has some knowledge.

After the Devil Fruit user dies, the fruit's ability will be randomly reborn in the sea. The specific principle is unknown.

However, someone has seen an ordinary fruit suddenly turn into a devil fruit.

What these guys in front of me want to do now...

"It seems that you also know something."

There was no time to talk to Gladius, so Luo focused all his attention on the area of ​​ROOM.

As his fingers shook, a dagger that had been placed in the water tank moved slowly and pierced Manudo's heart.

Time passed slowly, three minutes later

"Looks like it failed again!"

After maintaining the domain with all his strength for three minutes, Luo released his ability and looked slightly tired.

Compared with the use of ordinary abilities, this move consumes more physical strength.

Even though Luo, who had been training hard with Rhodes since he was a child, was much stronger than before, he was almost at the limit of his physical strength in the "isolation room" for three minutes.

"I heard that devil fruits have their own will and will choose a suitable host. It seems that there are no small dogs in our group, hahaha."

The experiment failed again, and Rhodes was not too disappointed.

Originally it was just an idea of ​​his. It would be best if it succeeded. Even if it never succeeded, there would be no loss.

"Hurry up and continue, the mat has been put down, strike while the iron is hot!"

Turning his eyes on Gladius, Rhodes urged Qi Luo.

"Now it can only be used for half a minute at most."

Facing Rhodes's eyes, Luo looked troubled.

Although Rhodes didn't seem to care, he still wanted to do his best to do this well.

As a person who uses abilities and is also a researcher, Luo knew in his heart that Rhodes' idea was feasible. The problem now was that he had not developed enough fruit abilities.

"No wonder I didn't retain the Segou Fruit just now. It's probably because the devil inside knew that you were already an esper. Otherwise, you and the Segou Fruit would be a perfect match."

Rhodes complained about Qi Luo mercilessly, and then waved his hand before the other party could refute, interrupting what he wanted to say.

"Forget it, half a minute should be enough. This kind of thing still depends on luck. If it works, maybe ten seconds will be enough. If it doesn't, even half an hour won't work. I believe luck is on my side! "

After hearing what Rhodes said, Luo no longer hesitated and activated the fruit ability again, covering Gladius and the fruit within the scope of the ability.

"Young Master will not let you go!"

Foreseeing his own death, Gladius calmed down. He just looked at Luo with cold eyes and spoke softly.

"I won't let him go either!"

Looking at Gladius calmly, Luo felt calm in his heart.

With the movement of Luo's finger, the long knife pierced Gladius' heart. His head placed on the wooden box trembled slightly, and his eyes completely lost their look.

At the moment Gladius died, an apple placed around him suddenly changed and turned into a devil fruit with strange lines under the gaze of everyone.

Superhuman Devil Fruit - Blast Fruit!

"Success!"

After seeing the rebirth of the devil fruit, everyone cheered. They seemed to have accomplished something remarkable!

At least before this, no one had ever heard of anyone being able to take away the power of a devil fruit.

Finally succeeded!

Seeing the formed devil fruit, Luo felt relieved.

As expected, just as Rod said, it only took a second for the new fruit to be reborn!

With a successful case, I can breathe a sigh of relief. The feeling of carrying everyone's expectations but not being able to respond is really uncomfortable!

So, what kind of pressure should Rod, who carries everyone's dreams and sails with everyone, bear?

Just as everyone cheered for the successful interception of the devil fruit power, Luo felt a little bit of Rod's responsibility and pressure as the captain.

"Why are you still exhausted? It only took less than ten seconds just now."

Rod patted Luo on the shoulder and interrupted his thinking.

"What should I do with this devil fruit."

His thoughts were interrupted, and Luo turned to throw a question.

"Emm...Pekin, Xiaqi, do any of you want to eat it?"

"We?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Pekin and Xiaqi's faces.

"This is a devil fruit worth at least 100 million Baileys! Boss Rod, are you going to give it to us directly?"

Their previous cheers were, on the one hand, because they witnessed the rebirth of the devil fruit with their own eyes, and on the other hand, they were happy for the entire Rod Pirates. Before this, they had never considered the option of eating the devil fruit.

"Of course! You are my partners!"

"Boss Rod!" x2

The two hugged Rod excitedly.

"Don't be funny, but there is only one fruit now, who will eat it first?"

"But, Boss, you don't have a devil fruit yourself."

The two looked at each other, and then Pekin hesitated and spoke.

"I have no plans to eat the devil fruit for the time being, and Neru is the same. We haven't fully tapped our own strength yet."

"Let's keep the opportunity for the time being."

Xiaqi took over the conversation, glanced at Pekin, and nodded affirmatively to Rod.

Then, they put on flattering smiles on their faces and hugged Rhode's thighs.

"Since we asked who would eat first, we will be given another fruit choice later. When there is fruit next time, we will become ability users together! Your words count, Boss Rhode!!"

"Don't worry, I will give you a choice - don't hug me anymore, two grown men are so disgusting!"
