Chapter 28 Devil Fruit

In the song and dance hall, the aroma of wine overflowed, singing and dancing.

"coming."

Soon, Xiaomei led Maria, who was cleaned and put on new clothes, and walked to Kaido.

After tidying up, the little girl looked completely different from the dirty beggar before. It was obvious at first glance that she was a beauty. If she hadn't been too big, she would have been trained as an oiran.

"Very good, take a seat."

Kaido looked at Maria, and the more he looked at her, the more satisfied he became. Regardless of her future strength, her appearance was worth his investment.

"Eat, let's talk after you're full."

Maria sat down and looked at the dazzling array of delicious food. She kept swallowing her saliva and gradually lost her mind.

She couldn't wait to pick up the largest piece of meat and bite it. The juices overflowed in her mouth. The delicious taste she had never experienced before captured her instantly.

"tasty!"

The little girl's eyes were glowing red and she was stuffing food into her mouth hungrily.

Since her body changed, her appetite has continued to increase. However, her poor family situation meant that she never had enough to fill her stomach. After being sold to Youguo, she could not even finish a meal.

It wasn't until her belly was so full that she couldn't hold any more food, then she reluctantly put down the bowl and chopsticks and burped happily.

Kaido chuckled: "Are you full?"

"Well, thank you, Lord Kaido!"

A smile broke out on Maria's face. Although she felt uncomfortable and wanted to vomit, nothing could replace that feeling of satisfaction.

Kaido had almost finished eating. He put down the wine bottle and asked, "Maria, when did your body change?"

"About a year and a half ago, I went to visit a grave with my family and ate a strange fruit there. After that, my body changed."

Maria remembers clearly that after sweeping the grave, she began to spin silk, and sometimes hair would grow on her hands and feet, which was very scary.

"There are two more strange fruits there!"

"Two more?"

Kaido was startled, and his originally casual attitude immediately became serious.

"Maria, what does the strange fruit you mentioned look like?"

"I can't remember, I just remember that the fruit had messy patterns on the surface, and it tasted very unpleasant!"

Maria stuck out her tongue. Thinking of the rancid smell made her feel sick. It was worse than a rotten apple!

"Devil Fruit!"

Kaido's eyes were solemn, there were many Devil Fruits in Wano Country, and among Oden's subordinates, there were three ability users among the Nine Heroes of the Red Sky.

Kinemon's Obedient Fruit, Raizo's Maki Fruit, Kanjuro's Bibi Fruit, and foreign aid Shinobu's Ripe Fruit.

There are also many people with abilities on the Orochi side, such as the phantom beast Yamata Orochi Fruit, Barrier Fruit, Mimicry Fruit, etc.

There are also dumpling fruits and phantom beast-type great entrance fruits.

The phantom beast Oguchi Shingami (White Wolf) fruit that Yamato has not yet eaten is most likely produced in the country of Wano.

The production of devil fruits in Wano can be said to be the highest in the world.

Kaido stared at Maria, his eyes seemed to be burning with fire: "Maria, where did you find them?"

"Northside Cemetery."

Maria answered truthfully, completely unaware of the true value of the Devil Fruit.

"The northern cemetery is behind the bell."

Kaido nodded and was not in a hurry to look for it right away. It had been more than a year since Maria ate the fruit. If someone who knew the fruit had discovered it, it would have been gone long ago. It would not be short of time.

He looked at the little girl and couldn't help but smile. If he could harvest two Devil Fruits, then this girl would be his lucky star.

"Maria, I will take you back to the Ghost Island to live in the future. Before that, what else do you have to do?"

"I want to be an oiran!"

Maria answered without hesitation that when she came to Youkuo from the countryside, the most beautiful identity she had ever seen was that of a wandering girl, especially the top oiran among the traveling girls, who would have a gorgeous guard of honor every time they traveled.

She also wants to be an oiran!

"This is simple."

Kaido smiled and said: "I will let Xiaomei be your teacher and guide you on how to become a qualified oiran."

"Really, thank you Lord Kaido!"

Maria was pleasantly surprised. Mrs. Xiaomei was the current Courtesan, and being able to get her teachings was an opportunity she couldn't ask for.

"By the way, let me introduce you."

Kaido pulled Yamato next to him: "This is my daughter Yamato. You are about the same age. You must get closer in the future."

"Um!"

Maria nodded vigorously, looked at Yamato, and smiled happily: "Miss Yamato, please take good care of me in the future."

"Don't worry, I will protect you."

Yamato raised her little chin proudly. She was quite confident about her strength. Now that she finally had a little sister, she naturally wanted to protect her safety.

"Hahahaha, let's continue celebrating. I'm in a good mood today. I won't go home until I'm drunk!"

In the eastern area of ​​the Flower City, in front of the house of Leopard Goro, more than two hundred warriors gathered here. They are all Leopard Goro's younger brothers.

"The big snake is too deceptive!"

"Boss Leopard Goro, think of a way!"

"The trash from the Huihui group is targeting us and looking for trouble every day!"

"Without our weapons, we can't fight them!"

"The business at the casino has also plummeted because Orochi's subordinates deliberately caused trouble. That is the main source of income for the brothers."

The younger brothers took turns complaining, and Haogoro was exhausted from dealing with it. The younger brothers also had a hard time.

The biggest reason is the knife ban.

In the past, they were not afraid of the serpent's subordinates at all. They only had friction with each other once or twice, and rarely suffered losses.

With boss Hao Goro sitting in charge, Black Carbon Orochi can't do anything to them.

But now that they have lost their weapons, they are no match against Orochi's subordinates.

Once you pick up a weapon, you are violating the knife ban and giving the snake an excuse to arrest people.

dilemma!

The most critical thing is that in the casinos, custom shops and other places they operate, Orochi's subordinates often come to make trouble, causing the business to plummet.

If we don't think of a solution, we will lose a large part of our income and just rely on collecting meager protection fees. More than 200 people will starve to death!

"You go back first, I will think of a way!"

After the younger brothers left, Baogoro sighed feebly, turned around and walked into the house.

The room was very empty, with no furniture left. There was a quilt on the ground in the center of the room, and his wife was lying on the quilt, her face extremely pale.

His home was beaten up many times, and the heavy life pressure and mental exhaustion made his strong wife fall ill.

"what do I do?"

Baogoro looked confused and a little desperate. He knew very well that Orochi wanted to take this opportunity to completely defeat him, and he did so.

Without their weapons, the two sides were evenly matched, and even the situation where they had a small advantage was immediately rewritten, and the contradictions became highlighted.

If the current situation cannot be changed, it won't be long before the Hwahao Goro family collapses and disbands due to the pressure of life.

And there was nothing he could do.

There are only two roads in front of you, one is to endure silently and die slowly, the other is to take up arms and die quickly!

"Oden."
