The following day, inside the Devil Fruit shop.
*Click! Click!*
The sound of a camera shutter echoed through the room as Rosh meticulously photographed each Devil Fruit.
He found it cumbersome to introduce each fruit individually to customers. It was a hassle for both him and the customers. So, Rosh decided to create a Devil Fruit catalog, complete with photos and brief descriptions of each fruit. This way, customers could easily browse the catalog, and Rosh could provide targeted information rather than a random assortment of details.
In his previous life, Rosh majored in design in college, so taking photos and designing layouts were tasks he could handle without hiring anyone. It was pretty convenient.
"Boss, what are you up to?"
Deadpool asked as he walked in, accompanied by a wild yet alluring woman. Rosh recognized her from the Deadpool movies and the numerous photos Deadpool had posted on his social media. She was Deadpool's wife, Vanessa.
"Hey, Wade," Rosh greeted, putting the Devil Fruit he was holding back in its place. "I'm making a catalog to help people better understand the Devil Fruits."
"Smart move! You should've done this earlier," Deadpool nodded approvingly before introducing the woman beside him. "This is my wife, Vanessa."
"Welcome to the shop, "Ms. Vanessa. Wade has been a great supporter and helper, and I'm very grateful," Rosh said politely.
"No, no, we should be thanking you," Vanessa replied genuinely, waving her hand. "Without you, Wade would never have had the confidence to walk in the sun. You gave him a new life."
"Alright, let's cut the mutual flattery here," Rosh chuckled. "It's fate that brought us together."
He then turned his attention to Deadpool. "So, Wade, are you here to buy another Devil Fruit?"
"Absolutely! Such a miraculous thing; Vanessa has to experience it too," Deadpool said enthusiastically, placing a black suitcase on the floor.
"I'm really looking forward to seeing the magic of the Devil Fruits," Vanessa said, her eyes shining with anticipation.
"Then, Ms. Vanessa…"
"Just call me Vanessa, like Wade does," she interrupted with a smile.
"Alright, Vanessa. Wade asked me about some defensive fruits, which I assume was for you. Do you need a defensive fruit?" Roxa asked directly.
"Actually, I want perfect, flawless skin like Wade's," Vanessa said, looking expectantly at Rosh. "Wade mentioned that each fruit is unique. Are there any other fruits that can achieve this?"
Indeed, the desire for beauty is universal.
"I'm sorry, Vanessa. There aren't any beauty-related fruits in stock right now," Rosh shook his head. "The essence of Devil Fruits is to enhance human potential and strengthen people. Improved skin is just a side effect."
"There aren't any fruits solely for beauty," he added.
Even the Love-Love Fruit consumed by Boa Hancock didn't inherently make her a beauty. Its power to captivate hearts was just an added effect because beauty was her weapon.
"I see," Vanessa said, looking disappointed.
Deadpool, on the other hand, couldn't help but grin.
"Vanessa, since there's no beauty fruit, let's stick to our original plan and get a defensive one. See, it's fate," Deadpool said smugly.
"Whatever," Vanessa replied indifferently. To her, fruits were either beauty fruits or everything else. Without a beauty fruit, the rest were all the same.
"Boss, we'll take a defensive fruit. Which ones do you recommend?" Deadpool asked eagerly, fearing Vanessa might change her mind.
"For a beautiful lady like Vanessa, I strongly recommend the Suit-Suit Fruit and the Cotton-Candy Fruit," Rosh said without hesitation. "Especially the Suit-Suit Fruit, which I believe is one of the most popular fruits among women."
Roxa had anticipated this request since Deadpool had inquired about it the previous evening. He had already considered his recommendations.
"The Suit-Suit Fruit? What's that?" Vanessa's interest was piqued. "Is it like a suit of clothes?"
"Yes, Vanessa. The Suit-Suit Fruit can create a full set of clothes. You could also call it the Clothing-Clothing Fruit," Rosh explained.
"So, if I eat this fruit, I could wear new clothes every day?" Vanessa asked excitedly, her face glowing with anticipation.
"You guessed it, Vanessa. With enough practice, you can create any outfit you imagine."
"That's amazing! This is exactly what I want!" Vanessa almost jumped with joy. "I want this one, shopkeeper."
"Boss, the clothes created by the Suit-Suit Fruit are bulletproof, right?" Deadpool asked for confirmation.
"Of course, Wade. I understand your concern," Rosh assured. "As I mentioned, the essence of Devil Fruits is to enhance one's abilities. The Suit-Suit Fruit enhances protection. Whether it's armor or clothing, it's a matter of personal choice."
"Even in its initial form, the Suit-Suit Fruit's abilities include bulletproof protection."
"Bulletproof? That's incredible! Wade, you're right; these fruits are like divine creations!" Vanessa was thrilled. A fruit that allowed her to change outfits daily and provided bulletproof protection? It was perfect.
Deadpool was equally pleased. It was like wearing a bulletproof vest every day, significantly increasing safety.
Both Deadpool and Vanessa were extremely satisfied with the Suit-Suit Fruit.
