Chapter 478
Pure gold is a unique metal that can prolong life.
Tezzolo had been chasing it, and today, he finally got word about the whereabouts of the pure gold.
After getting the news, he came over as soon as possible, and told Maud the good news.
This is indeed good news.
For the Maud Pirates, pure gold is not just a metal that prolongs life.
In theory, Maud's shadow repair, Mansherry's fruit recovery ability, and Luo's surgical fruit ability can reduce or offset the side effects of wasting life through pure gold.
This is an increase in direction change, so Moder's demand for pure gold is high.
"I will find pure gold and give it to you."
After being informed of the pure gold news, Tezzolo's current idea is to find the pure gold as soon as possible, and then dedicate the pure gold to Maud.
It was a decision he had made before.
Because he knew that Maud was very interested in pure gold and had a more urgent need.
Maud did not reject Tezzolo's good intentions and asked, "Do you want to go out in person?"
"Yes."
Tezolo nodded.
If he hadn't met Maud, he would only leave the task of finding pure gold to his subordinates, rather than go out in person.
But not now.
He could see that Maud wanted to get pure gold, and naturally he attached great importance to this matter.
So he has to personally go out to ensure that he can get the pure gold smoothly.
Maud pondered for a moment, and finally agreed to Tezzolo's wishes.
At the juncture of the upcoming celebration, Tezzolo's departure is equivalent to the loss of an important combat power for the team.
But the importance of pure gold required Maude to make such a decision.
Subsequently.
Maud and Tezzolo settled the matter.
Bebo and other members of the Heart Pirates will assist Tezzolo, and the sailing time is set at noon tomorrow.
Can you get pure gold.
Maud is looking forward to it.
If it goes well, when Tezzolo brings back the pure gold, he can use Mansherry's ability to put the concept of [Restoration of Life] into action.
The night is getting darker.
Tezzolo left the room, while Maud sat alone on the sofa, tilting his head and staring out the window at the night.
Presumably at this point in time, the aftershocks left over from the live broadcast of Barrett and Festa are still affecting people all over the world.
Maud is looking forward to Tezzolo finding pure gold, and looking forward to this upcoming celebration.
Whether it is pure gold or a celebration, it is the key to his final step.
Between thoughts flickering, Maud raised his hand to open the shadow box.
The dark shadow waves flowed on the palm of the hand, and devil fruits with strange patterns on the surface emerged from it.
At the stalk of each devil fruit, without exception, there are shadows that are connected like branches, barely giving the impression of a small fruit tree.
Maud took it out and put it on the table.
On the small tree made of shadows, there are devil fruits of different colors and patterns hanging.
Maud glanced at it, and there were a total of twenty-four Devil Fruits.
respectively-
Exploding Fruit, Sounding Fruit, Squeezing Fruit, Sticky Fruit, Swimming Fruit, Art Fruit, Exploding Fruit, Shocking Fruit, Childlike Fruit, Mammoth Fruit, Nine-Tailed Fox Fruit, Dark Fruit, Cream Fruit, Mirror Mirror fruit, biscuit fruit, pterosaur fruit, saber-toothed tiger fruit, spinosaurus fruit, baotou dragon fruit, yagi orochi fruit, snow snow fruit, multiplier fruit, geranium rose ancient tarantula fruit, brachiosaurus fruit.
So many Devil Fruits are enough to drive any party crazy.
What's more, among these Devil Fruits, there are quite a few ancient species, as well as the Devil Fruits such as the Shock Fruit and the Dark Fruit, which are hard to come by.
And the even rarer magical beasts such as the nine-tailed fox and the eight-headed snake, the devil fruit.
Maud originally planned to hold a celebration that would attract the powers of all walks of life, and these Devil Fruits that could drive most people crazy were the bait.
It's just that now Barrett and Festa are one step ahead of him, using Ralph Drew's permanent pointer and heavenly gold as bait, intending to hold an unprecedented celebration.
In this way, Maud does not have to worry about this aspect.
To him, it doesn't matter who will hold this celebration that exists in the future, as long as it can be held.
"Dual ability..."
Maud's eyes flowed on many Devil Fruits.
If Luo's chimera research can go well, he can choose a second devil fruit to eat.
"Shake fruit."
Maud looked at the Quake Fruit, which was covered with glass-like cracks.
This is a highly destructive Devil Fruit that theoretically has the potential to destroy the world.
When it comes to eating a second Devil Fruit, Maud prefers the Shock Fruit, which increases his destructive power to the next level.
Turning his eyes, Maud looked at another Devil Fruit with a purple spiral pattern.
That is the dark fruit, which is called by Blackbeard as the most special natural devil fruit.
Maud stared at the purple threads on the surface of the Dark Fruit.
In his opinion, the most powerful part of the Dark Fruit is not the black hole-like gravity, but the peculiar ability that can nullify the target's Devil Fruit ability.
If a person who is proficient in physical arts and domineering is allowed to eat the dark fruit, it will undoubtedly become an existence that makes countless capable people feel fearful.
Blackbeard was deliberately planning to get the dark fruit.
Not to mention that Rox, who was once famous in the world, is also a dark fruit ability.
From this, we can see the potential contained in the dark fruit.
It's just that compared to the more intuitive destructive power of the Zhenzhen fruit, it is only a dark fruit with special abilities, and it does not have a high proportion in Mord's heart.
Unless the dark fruit can even nullify the overlord attack...
Maud thought it was possible, but he didn't want to gamble.
If he was asked to choose between the two, he would basically choose the shock fruit.
On the one hand, it takes into account the compatibility of abilities.
On the other hand, because of the experience gain provided by Whitebeard, he can quickly master the ability of the shaking fruit in a short time.
Previously, the reason why he was able to master the domineering arrogance so quickly was also because of the experience gains brought by Whitebeard.
As for Blackbeard...
It took less than a year for him to slaughter the dark fruit.
The experience gains brought are basically of no reference value.
Maud lowered his head and thought, then looked at the other Devil Fruits.
Leaving aside the shaking fruit and the dark fruit -
Among the remaining Devil Fruits, the Multiplier Fruit and the Orochi Fruit are worthy of Maud's attention.
The former's multiplier ability, the latter's multi-life characteristics, and the natural ability of the animal system to enhance physique, strength, and speed.
These are all abilities that can increase the upper limit of the "panel", similar to the Shadow Gathering Ground and Pisces Circulation in the Shadow Fruit ability...
It's just that Maud intends to let Bailey eat the multiplication fruit. As for the fruit of the eight-headed snake, it can be considered.
after all--
The special ability of multiple lives means a very high fault tolerance rate.
And the physical enhancement ability brought by the animal system can also further improve the physical ability of Mode, which has reached ten stars.
If you compare it with the Zhenzhen fruit, Maud is actually quite moved.
"I wonder if Qiu Shui can eat the second Devil Fruit."
Maud suddenly thought of something and looked at Qiushui curled up on the pillow.
If you don't change, Qiushui is no different from usual, just a knife.
But after using the ability to transform, Qiushui, in a sense, is a real creature.
According to Luo's theory, as long as it is a living creature, it has the preconditions that it can be transformed into a chimeric physique.
Therefore, Qiushui, who obtained life through animal-type abilities, can theoretically eat the second Devil Fruit.
But no one can guarantee that the theory is correct.
Maud doesn't take chances.
Because it might make him lose his autumn water.
Maud stopped his thoughts, slowly retracted his eyes, and looked at the many devil fruits on the table again.
As long as the vision can be realized-
That means he can use five Devil Fruit abilities in battle.
This kind of thing should surprise the eyes of most people in the world.
"There will be results soon..."
Maud smiled slightly, raised his hand to open the shadow box, and put in many Devil Fruits.
......
the next day.
A newspaper delivery gull came to Wano country.
It's just that instead of throwing the newspaper at Wano Country, it flew to the castle of the terrifying barque.
now.
Everyone in Mod is enjoying the breakfast carefully prepared by Jaya and Sanji in the dining room.
"coming."
Maud sensed something and raised his eyes to the balcony with the glass door open in front of him.
"What's coming?"
Bailey, who was squatting on the table with a large piece of Duoying, looked up at Maud with a puzzled look on his face.
"newspaper."
Maud smiled.
Bailey was suddenly stunned and took the initiative to say, "Go and get the newspaper."
Saying that, he bit off the meat from the pig's leg in two or three bites, and then went straight to the balcony.
As soon as he reached the balcony with his front feet, the newspaper delivery gull's hind feet landed on the balcony railing.
"I want all the newspaper nests."
Bailey stretched out his oily fleshy palm towards the delivery gull, looking full of pride.
The newspaper delivery gull was startled by Bailey's words, and then looked embarrassed.
While it is good to sell all the papers at once, other parts of the nearby sea may not receive the morning papers until the afternoon.
This defeats the purpose of sending the report.
"It's all about your size. There's nowhere to spend so much money, right?"
Perona floated over and looked down at Bailey, as if looking at an idiot.
Bailey raised his brows and grinned fiercely at Perona.
Perona ignored him and took out the money that could buy ten newspapers.
"Give me ten newspapers."
She handed the money to the newspaper delivery gull, who responded and took ten newspapers from her bag to Perona.
Just when the money and goods were about to be cleared, the newspaper delivery gull saw Luo sitting at the dining table.
"what?"
As if something terrible had happened, the newspaper delivery gull kept flapping its wings towards Luo, and at the same time shouted something Perona couldn't understand at all.
"what's the situation???"
Perona looked at the newspaper delivery gull who suddenly became a little excited.
Is it because the price of newspapers has gone up, so she doesn't have enough money to buy Shifen newspapers?
And after Bailey listened to the words of the newspaper delivery gull, a strange color slowly appeared on his chubby face.
Perona looked at Bailey and asked, "What is it talking about?"
"It's saying..."
Bailey looked at Luo with a strange look on his face, and loudly translated for the newspaper delivery gull:
"Although the money for the two newspapers is not much, it is also its hard-earned money, but that man...cough, but Luo actually stole the two newspapers from it, this is a robbery!!!"
"..."
Perona's mouth twitched a few times.
Luo was drinking soup, and when he heard Bailey's words, he choked.
Others in the room also heard Bailey's words, and looked at Luo invariably, with slightly strange eyes.
For pirates, although looting is the most normal thing, no matter how poor the pirates are, they will not snatch the newspapers that deliver the gulls.
after all--
A newspaper is only 100 Baileys.
"..."
Feeling the strange eyes from his companions, Luo, who was forcibly pulled into the restaurant by Jaya, was sitting like a needle for a while.
He suddenly remembered.
On the way to the high altitude of the White Earth Island by the bear, he did use his ability to pass two newspapers from a newspaper delivery gull.
That is to say—
The newspaper delivery gull on the balcony fence is the one that he took with him two newspapers?
This is too coincidental.
Luo's face darkened.
Jim, who was sitting next to him, gave him a meaningful look.
"Jim, don't look at me that way, I couldn't...forget it."
Luo gave up explaining.
Jim suddenly sighed.
Luo: "..."
Filo, who took off his crow mask, said timidly, "No, I didn't expect Mr. Luo, yes, he is such a person."
Luo: "..."
Brook hurriedly took out the pen and paper from his skull, and said with a smile, "Yohoo, I have to write down this little anecdote."
Luo: "..."
Cavendish, who often bought batches of newspapers to burn before, said in a deep and powerful tone: "A newspaper is only 100 Baileys..."
Luo: "..."
Qingzhi raised his finger and scratched his cheek, as if recalling the days when he set up a stall to provide ice products for those involved in the reconstruction work.
Luo: "..."
Tezzolo said nothing, but he boldly placed a fist-sized piece of gold in front of Luo.
Luo: "..."
Everyone else looked at Luo with strange expressions on their faces.
This is simply the scene of a large social death.
Maud felt the need to do something, so he took out two 100 Bailey coins and shoved them in front of Luo.
Luo looked down at the coin, then looked up at Maud.
Luo had never felt exhausted from studying chimeras day and night before, but he did at this moment.
He decides……
Never leave the lab until the chimera research is complete.
Even Jaya forcing him to go to dinner wouldn't help.
Thinking of this, Luo sighed softly, opened the field and transferred the coin to the front of the newspaper delivery gull.
The delivery gull, who asked for the paper money in return, flew away contentedly.
Maud takes a newspaper from Perona.
It's a rare double-page, and the headline is undoubtedly yesterday's live broadcast, and what Festa said was an unprecedented celebration.
In addition, it is the detailed identities of Barrett and Festa.
It can only be said that the media still has two brushes, and they can dig out so much identity information.
"Livestreaming the looting of gold in the sky is indeed a good way to build momentum, but it's obviously not enough..."
Maud looked at the newspaper and thought silently in his heart.
The "interview" program with Reilly and Jabba in a few days will be the highlight that can greatly improve the credibility of Festa's statement.
"Blubulu..."
The phone bug of the watch on the wrist suddenly sounded an incoming call.
Maud put down the newspaper, lifted the cover of the phone bug, and connected the call.
From the dark and small and delicate phone bug, Morgans could not wait to hear the voice.
"Mr. Maud, is the interview time set?"
