"You're lying. Only after the Devil Fruit user dies can you obtain his Devil Fruit. This is the law of nature!" Crocodile retorted.

"How do you know it's impossible? I can take out your devil fruit, so why can't I let you live?"

Crocodile was silent for a moment and slowly shook his head.

"Haha, even if I could, I wouldn't tell you." Crocodile smiled bleakly and closed his eyes, looking like he was willing to die.

"Oh, what is that secret? It makes you like this."Les was very curious, what kind of secret could make Crocodile guard it at the cost of his life?

"Humph, some things are far more important than life." Crocodile opened his eyes and said with emotion.

Rice narrowed his eyes slightly. It seems that Crocodile is still a man with a story.

However

"Are you sure you don't want to tell me?" Les said in a slightly cold voice.

Crocodile simply didn't answer, but closed his eyes.

"Well, then you go die."Les sighed. The future father Buggy will not be able to step onto the stage in the future.

Les took out the newly opened air gun (among the miscellaneous things), pointed it at Crocodile's head, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

At this moment, Crocodile, who was bound by the seastone, was not even as good as an ordinary person. It was impossible for him to dodge the bullet.

""Bang!" A blood hole appeared on Crocodile's forehead, his whole body shook, and he lost his voice.

One of the Seven Warlords of the Sea fell.

Rice opened the seastone prison, opened the seastone handcuffs with ease, put them aside, and looked at the fruits around him expectantly.

Under Rice's eyes, an apple slowly turned into a yellow fruit, and several spiral stripes appeared on the skin. The most peculiar thing was that this fruit seemed to be made up of countless sand.

Rice reached out and touched it. It was a layer of sand, a little rough.

Rice's mouth curled up, not bad, very smooth, but who should this fruit be given to? If he didn't eat it himself, he couldn't waste it. After all, it was a good natural devil fruit.

If it is well developed, not to mention the strength of the admiral, the vice-captain is still okay.

Forget it, let's talk about it later.

Rice looked at the sun hanging in the east, which was already emitting a scorching breath. It was getting late.

As usual, it was burned cleanly.

Rice put away the sand-sand fruit and went to Albana.

In the capital.

The loudspeaker in the square was broadcasting:"Caused by Crocodile......Thanks to Mr. Rice's heroic fight yesterday, the thief Crocodile was finally defeated......"

The center broadcasts the story of how Rice defeated Crocodile yesterday, and explains the reason for the drought in the past three years.

In it, Rice is described as a wise and brave man who first broke Crocodile's plan, then saved the king, and finally defeated Crocodile.

""What? It's like this. I thought there were no good people among pirates." A man with a beard suddenly realized.

"Aren't they the Shichibukai? Pirates recognized by the government." The younger man next to him asked

"The government? The government is not a good thing. Our country has been suffering from drought for so long, and they have never come to take care of us. I have long known that Crocodile is not a good thing. The young man sneered at the government.

"That's true." The young man nodded. Suddenly he remembered something and said

"But I heard that Mr. Rice, who defeated Crocodile, was also a pirate.

The young man was stunned and said as a matter of course,"How can that be the same? I have heard that Mr. Rice and his men brought large-scale rainfall to the Cattleya region. They are really good people, but it's a pity that they didn't bring rainfall to our capital. Fortunately, people like Mr. Rice will not sit idly by and watch us do nothing. They directly solved the source of the problem and defeated Crocodile."

"Therefore, Mr. Rice is totally different from ordinary pirates.

The young man was stunned by the flattery.

The young man nodded in agreement, with admiration in his eyes, and said:"It is my luck to meet someone like Mr. Rice."

"It is our country's luck."The young man corrected

""Yeah."

People in the streets and alleys were talking about this matter, and almost no one questioned it, mainly because they were all staunch supporters of the king.

Therefore, they had a great liking for Rice and his party who saved the country.

At this time, in a room in the palace.

Nami frowned and looked around the bed, but did not find any trace of Rice.

"What's the matter? Rice got up so early today?"

Nojigo stretched lazily, with a sly smile on her pretty face:"What's wrong, Nami, are you missing Rice again?"

Nami snorted:"Huh, who misses him?"

"You said you didn't want to, but you look so happy." Noki laughed loudly.

Nami was startled and hurried to the dressing table. After taking a look, she said coquettishly,"Noki, you lied to me again. You really learned bad things from Rice."

"Hehe, okay, sister will look for it with you." Nokigo got out of bed, put her arms around Nami, and pressed her soft body against Nami's back. As

Nokigo said this, she activated her ability.

Just a second later, Nokigo said in surprise:"Les is outside the palace and is coming here now."

Nami was relieved and nodded.

A minute later, Les turned the door open and walked into the room.

Nami was helping Nokigo tie her hair. When she saw Les come in, she frowned and asked,"Where have you been?"

Les came over with a smile and said,"I went to get a good thing."

"Good stuff? What is it?"Nami: Curious

"Two devil fruits, one natural and one animal."

Nami's eyes widened in surprise. Now she knew that the natural devil fruit was rare, but she didn't expect that Rice would get it after going out again.

Nojigo also sighed:"Rice, you are so lucky to pick up two devil fruits at once. It's a pity that we all have devil fruits."

"Nojigo, I didn't pick this up. I got it after I killed Crocodile and Miss. Merry Christmas."

When they heard this, the two girls were very surprised. This sentence contained too much information. They were also deeply puzzled.

"But, Rice, after a Devil Fruit user dies, won't his Devil Fruit randomly appear in the sea? How did you get the fruit so quickly?"Nami was puzzled.

Rice chuckled and said,"I found that seastone can restrain the user, so I thought that if I use seastone to seal a space, the power of the Devil Fruit inside will not escape. Furthermore, if I kill the user inside and put some fruit on it, I can get the corresponding Devil Fruit."
