NOVEL NEXT Chapter 044
Inside the shipyard.
Sephiroth crouched down, casually opened the two wooden boxes, and glanced inside.
He found one box containing Bailey banknotes, probably more than twenty million, and another containing gold coins and jewelry, the value of which was difficult to estimate.
In order to make it easier to carry, he freed a marijuana bag from the pirates’ luggage and poured all the banknotes and treasure into it.
After doing all this, he turned around, walked to the black cloth bag, and began to rummage through the pile of fruit.
Boom!
In a flurry of turning, his hand touched a gray skin with a spiral pattern of the Devil Fruit on it… Animal line – canine fruit – wolf form!
Sephiroth’s gaze looked into the black cloth bag, and he found out what kind of fruit it was, which turned into this devil fruit.
It turned out to be a red apple…?
He prepared bananas, red apples, green apples, oranges, oranges in black cloth bags… and a series of other common fruits, but the fruit that can eventually become the devil fruit is a red apple….
To be honest, Sephiroth just had the idea of giving it a try at first, and among the many pirates he used bats for surveillance, he selected this pirate with animal abilities to conduct the Devil Fruit rebirth experiment.
In the One Piece world, once the demon fruit ability dies, the demon fruit will be randomly reborn on a ripe fruit, and the reborn demon fruit, whether it is in appearance or ability, is exactly the same as the original, no difference!
Sephiroth felt that the rebirth of the Devil Fruit should be controllable….
Whether it is the jackal and the falcon, the two devil fruits, which have been passed down for 3,000 years in the kingdom of Alabastan, or Caesar killed the poisonous gas slime that ate the salamander fruit on the island of Punk Hassad, and the fruit was reborn on the nearby red apple.
These things all show that the Devil Fruit Rebirth is controllable.
The premise is that as long as you find the right type of fruit that the devil fruit needs to be reborn…
Of course, Sephiroth only did one experiment, which does not show that this is the case.
The rebirth of the devil fruit in the form of an animal wolf is probably just that he had great luck and the blind cat ran into a dead rat.
The brown-haired shipbuilder, when he saw Sephiros using ropes to bind the bodies of three bounty prisoners, kindly asked:
“That… Mr. Bounty Hunter, do you need us to give you a bubble trolley?
Hearing this, Sephiroth was stunned for a moment, and then he nodded and said:
“Thank you!” I just need it.
After thinking about it, he took out another hundred thousand Bailey and handed it to the brown-haired shipbuilder, but the latter quickly shirked and refused, saying that all this was to thank him for saving his life.
However, Sephiroth still forcibly stuffed it to the other party, saying that it was money to buy a bubble cart and let them help dispose of the pirate’s carcass.
Seeing that they could not get rid of it, the shipbuilders could only accept the money, while the boy carried the body onto a bubble cart and covered it with a white cloth before leaving the shipyard with the devil fruit and treasure.
After walking a long distance, Sephiroth found a hidden grass and parked the bubble trolley inside.
He split a black bat on his body and remained on the bubble cart to act as a guard.
Then, he took the vampire transformation, spread his wings, took the devil fruit and treasure, soared into the sky, and flew to Island 71, where he was staying.
After quickly hiding these valuables in his room, he returned to Island 52, pushing a bubble cart to Island 60, the naval base.
The navy stationed here, because it is relatively close to Marin Fandor, has not been set up as an independent G-head branch, and is still under the unified dispatch and command of the naval headquarters….
As soon as Sephiroth arrived at the gate of the naval base, the two soldiers standing guard immediately raised their spears and aimed at him, and if he made a slight change, they would pull the trigger and shoot.
One of the Navy soldiers was the first to warn:
“Stop! What do you guys want to do when they come to the naval base? At
this time, Sephiroth was still wearing a black hooded cloak, a sly mask on his face, hiding his head and tail, and he looked very suspicious.
“Two Navy gentlemen, don’t get excited! I’m just here to collect the bounty…” As
he spoke, Sephiroth gently pulled off the white cloth covering the trolley, revealing the bodies of the three bounty prisoners.
Seeing this scene, the two naval soldiers immediately relaxed a little, but the naval soldier was still vigilant:
“This gentleman, please take off your mask, we must make sure that you are not a bounty criminal before we can let you enter the naval base.”
When Sephiros heard this, he didn’t say anything, but gently removed the mask covering his face, revealing a slightly pale and gloomy handsome face, and by the way, he lifted the hat on his head, revealing a short green hair.
In order not to be discovered when he went to the naval base to collect the bounty, Sephiroth could only ask Stella to help him with makeup, and even dyed his hair green.
If you want to live a decent life, you always have to have a little green on your head….
Make money! No bumps!
The two naval soldiers, after glancing up and down at Sephiroth to confirm that he was not a bounty criminal, opened the closed door of the base and let him take a car inside.
“The place where the identity of the bounty was confirmed, on the first floor of the office building, in the rightmost room.”
“Okay, thanks for the reminder!”
Sephiroth nodded, and in order not to cause trouble again, he did not put on the sly mask again, so he pushed the bubble cart through the spacious playground, and passed by a group of naval soldiers who were training.
The ground of the naval base is not the same as the ground of the other Chambord Islands, and some people have created a whole piece of land with traces of land reclamation, apparently the Navy deliberately did it to strengthen the foundation, making it seem incompatible with the other islands of Chambord.
Soon, he walked into the cold morgue and saw a fat captain wearing a white justice cloak and black-framed glasses on his face.
Sephiroth raised his voice hoarsely and greeted the captain in front of him.
“Hello, I’m here to collect the bounty…” ”
What’s your name, little brother?”
“Uh?…… Roronoa Solon! ”
Okay, you wait for me to check the identity
of the bounty criminal…” The fat captain Lutherf, first reached out and pushed the glasses on his face, before picking up a thick stack of bounty orders on his desk and flipping through the three corpses.
“Gray Wolf Bello 76 million Bailey… Two-gun Post 23 million Bailey… Iron Claw Halka 26 million Bailey… That’s 125 million Baileys.
Well!? The total bounty amount exceeds 100 million Bailey, you need to go to Lieutenant General Yellow Ape to sign…”
As he spoke, Lutherf picked up the Polaroid camera on the table, took three photos, and quickly wrote down a form document, signed his own name, sealed it, and attached three bounty orders.
“You sign your name here, and then go to the second office on the fifth floor, on the left-hand side, and find Lieutenant General Yellow Ape to sign.
With his signature, you can go directly to the third floor, the first room on the left, and the finance office to collect the bounty.
Sephiroth casually wrote the name “Roronoa Solon” on the document, and subconsciously muttered: ”
Ah! It’s so troublesome…” In
his heart, he didn’t really want to see the yellow ape.
At that time, what would the other party think if the yellow ape found out that he was a military cadet and actually ran out during the holidays to earn extra money? Will you go to make a small report with Pharaoh Ze?
“No way, the amount of more than 100 million needs to be signed by our Lieutenant General Yellow Ape, and the financial office can pay…” Luther
first explained with a smile, and then he carried the three corpses one by one and put them in the freezer dedicated to storing the corpses.
Every once in a while, the Navy headquarters will count and recover all the corpses of bounty prisoners in the base, and transport these bodies back to their birthplaces to expose the corpses to the public, which is used to warn those who are ready to go to sea to become pirates.
Sephiroth took three photographs and paperwork, ascended to the fifth floor, stood at the door of the second room, and reached out and knocked softly on the closed door.
“Ha~! Come in!”
A yawning, slightly languid voice came from inside the house.
As soon as Sephiroth pushed open the door, he saw a tall man wearing a white justice cloak and a yellow suit, with a very lewd face and a sleepy expression.
His back rests on his office chair and his feet resting on his desk.
This man is the supreme commander of the Chambord Islands naval base, Vice Admiral Yellow Ape, one of the three future admirals of the Navy!
On the wall of the room, behind the yellow ape, hangs a plaque that reads “Ambiguous Justice”.
“Hello! Lieutenant General Yellow Ape, I’m here to receive the bounty…”
Sephiroth had a humble look on his face, walked to his desk, handed over the documents, and showed them to the other party.
“Ha~! 125 million Baileys, including a pirate of 76 million Baileys, how terrifying! The
yellow ape picked his ears with his left hand, and with his right hand, he picked up the signing pen on his desk, signed his name twice, and stamped it.
“Okay, you take the documents and go to the finance office to collect the bounty!”
Saying that, the yellow ape yawned sleepily again and continued to nap on the office chair.
“It’s
really you!” Navy Fish King… Sephiroth secretly slandered in his heart, turned away, closed the office door again, went to the financial office, and received the bounty.
