Phoenix Reborn In One Piece

"That's right!"

"Nami, we're so lucky!"

Ryuen couldn't believe it. They actually found a devil fruit on this trip, their luck was off the charts!

"Ryuen, let me see! Hurry, hurry!"

"Okay, Nami, don't get too excited~"

Little Nami carefully took the devil fruit from Ryuen's hand, her face full of excitement.

"Is this worth a billion berries..."

Unknowingly, Nami's eyes turned into berry shapes!

Looking at the devil fruit was like looking at a billion berries, she felt no treasure could compare!

The devil fruit looked like a small gourd, entirely green with black swirl patterns.

Ryuen couldn't tell what power this devil fruit had, but he felt it was a Paramecia-type devil fruit.

Suddenly, Ryuen heard some noise outside!

"Nami, someone's coming! Let's go!" Ryuen whispered.

In an instant, the berry shapes in Nami's eyes disappeared. She quickly opened her backpack and put the devil fruit inside.

"Let's go, Ryuen, they must be here to steal my billion berries!" Nami held her backpack tightly, her face showing a bit of tension.

"Yeah! We'll climb out the window!"

Nami and Ryuen quickly jumped out of the window and disappeared into the ruins.

A few minutes later, in the corner of a broken house, Ryuen and Nami carefully peeked out from the wall, checking the situation.

"There are so many people. Are they also here to find treasure?" Nami whispered.

"Maybe not, they might be here to find the devil fruit too." Ryuen said seriously.

Around the house where Ryuen and Nami found the devil fruit, dozens of mysterious people in suits were searching carefully.

Ryuen recognized them at first glance. They were from the World Government's CP organization!

"What? We can't let them catch us! This is my billion berries!" Little Nami held her backpack tightly, afraid the devil fruit inside would be taken.

"Don't worry, Nami, these people aren't very strong. We just need to be careful not to be seen. Even if we are, I can protect you." Ryuen gently held Nami's hand.

Seeing these people with guns, Ryuen knew they were just low-level agents, not their match.

But Ryuen couldn't act rashly. Who knew if there were any strong ones among them?

If he acted and didn't finish them all, he and Nami would be exposed and face the World Government's bounty.

Ryuen thought it was best not to get a bounty. This way, they could stay hidden longer, especially since they were in East Blue.

"Yeah, Ryuen, you have to protect me and the devil fruit. It's worth a billion berries!" Nami said seriously, looking at Ryuen.

After speaking, Nami leaned closely against Ryuen.

The two kids quietly watched the CP organization searching the ruins.

Suddenly, Ryuen saw a man with bull-horn hair in a suit. It was Blueno from CP9!

Everyone in CP9 knew Rokushiki. Ryuen immediately pulled Nami back into the corner.

He wasn't afraid of being seen, but Nami couldn't protect herself.

"What's wrong, Ryuen?" Nami asked softly.

"There's a strong guy among those people, we need to hide!" Ryuen whispered back.

Hearing that there was a strong person, Nami nervously grabbed Ryuen's hand.

"Don't worry, Nami, we're well hidden here. They won't find us." Ryuen held Nami's small hand to comfort her.

"Okay, I trust you, Ryuen." Nami nodded her little head.

Ryuen was thinking, why was Blueno from CP9 here? Shouldn't they be in Water 7?

He looked at Nami's backpack and suddenly thought, could this be Brook's Door-Door Fruit?

But weren't CP9's Devil Fruits given by their leader Spandam?

Ryuen wasn't sure, but if this Devil Fruit was really the Door-Door Fruit, then he and Nami would hit the jackpot!

Ryuen felt that the Door-Door Fruit would be the best Devil Fruit for Nami to eat!

Should he trick Nami into eating this Devil Fruit? Ryuen thought.

"Nami, why don't you eat this Devil Fruit? That way, you can get strong powers. If they find us and take it, it won't be good." Ryuen suggested.

"No way!"

"Ryuen, this is worth 100 million Berries!" Nami whispered in protest.

She was thinking of trading the Devil Fruit for Berries later. Getting strong wasn't as good as 100 million Berries!

"But Nami..."

Suddenly, there were faint footsteps outside!

"Shh~"

"They seem to be coming!" Ryuen whispered.

"What should we do? They won't really come to take my Devil Fruit, will they?" Nami started to get nervous hearing the footsteps outside.

"Nami, why don't you eat the Devil Fruit now? We can't let them have it!" Ryuen said with a quick thought.

Nami's little face became conflicted.

"Nami, we can earn Berries later, but if the Devil Fruit is taken, we get nothing!" Seeing that Nami was tempted, Ryuen continued to persuade her.

"Alright! We can't let them have it!" Nami bit her lip and made up her mind.

She opened her backpack and took out the Devil Fruit.

"Nami, Devil Fruits taste awful. Make sure you don't scream too loudly, okay?" Ryuen warned Nami in advance, so she wouldn't scream out loud because of the bad taste.

"I... I know." Little Nami looked at the Devil Fruit in her hand, and tears started to fall.

"Don't cry, Nami. Once you get stronger, we'll have more chances in the future!" Ryuen couldn't help but smile at Nami's reluctant look.

Nami wiped her tears with the back of her hand, took a deep breath, and bit into the Devil Fruit!

Instantly, Nami's face turned blue and purple from the awful taste.

With a gulp, Nami finally swallowed the first bite!

Then, as if making a decision, she ate the Devil Fruit bite by bite under Ryuen's surprised gaze!

While eating, she muttered about how each bite was worth ten million.

After Nami finished eating, Ryuen took an orange from her backpack: "Nami, eat an orange. It'll help with the taste."

Nami didn't hesitate and peeled the orange to eat.

"How is it? Feeling better?"

"Yeah, much better, but... Ryuen, my 100 million Berries are gone, waaa~~~"

"It's okay, it's okay. We'll definitely find more valuable treasures in the future!"

"Who's there?"

"There are people here! Surround this place!"

"Oh no, we've been discovered. Ryuen, let's go!" In a panic, Nami pushed open an air door on the wall!

This scene left Ryuen stunned!

Nami walked into the air door and pulled Ryuen in with her.

"Bang!!"

The room door was kicked open, but the people inside had disappeared without a trace~~

Door-Door Fruit!
