Starting to practice magic from Uchiha

Chapter 209 Slippery Fruit



"Okay, I'm done with my story...there's nothing special about it."

Nami sat on the sofa and said something calmly, and Uchiha Feiyu nodded:

"It's quite common... Your story is miserable. It's not even in the top ten that I know. Moreover, you have never thought of a way to deal with the Arlong Pirates. Instead, you pinned your hopes on accumulating hundreds of millions of beli. , dreaming that with this money, I can buy back Cocoa West Village... Haha..."

Nami, who was still trying to keep a calm expression at first, immediately lost her guard after hearing Uchiha Feiyu's words, with an angry look on her face:

"It's easy for you! When I tell you my story, I'm just telling you about my birth. I'm not asking you to compare your misfortune with others!"

"And the strength of the pirate group composed of Aaron and his fishmen is not as simple as you think. In the past, there were some desperate bounty hunters and the navy who had trouble with him..."

"Let me ask you something, do you think Aaron will keep his promise and return your hometown to you after you hand over 100 million beli?"

Uchiha Feiyu asked in a calm voice. Nami froze immediately. After a moment, she lowered her head and said:

"It should...should be returned to me! Anyway, I am also a member of the Aaron Pirates, and the captain's promise to his crew..."

"Haha, Aaron is a pirate! How many pirates have you seen keep their promises?"

"Perhaps there are a few pirate captains who will keep their promises to their crew members. However, do you really think that Aaron regards you as his crew member?"

"Apart from those fish-men, you are the only human in the Aaron Pirates, right? Do you really think Aaron regards you as one of his own?"

Nami's face gradually turned pale, and she just gritted her teeth and said:

"I...I have no choice! Otherwise, what do you think I can do? If I fight against the Arlong Pirates, it will be fine if I succeed, but if I fail, then Cocoa Nishi Village will really be hopeless! "

Uchiha Feiyu curled his lips and lightly broke the illusion that Nami had always kept in her heart:

"However, if you don't fight, Cocoa West Village will definitely be doomed... With the greed of the Aaron Pirates, there is no way they can give up a cash cow like Cocoa West Village. They will only break the bones and suck out the marrow, and greedily take away all the money your fellow villagers have." All the blood and sweat were collected."

"As for your so-called daydream that 100 million beli can redeem Cocoa West Village, do you believe it yourself?"

"Based on the head count of Cocoyasi Village, tens of millions of beli can be provided in a month. The so-called 100 million beli is just what Aaron and the others gained from plundering the entire village for three months - you guess they will Wouldn’t you give up this long-term cash cow for 100 million Baileys?”

Uchiha Feiyu's sarcastic words were like flying knives, piercing the luck in Nami's heart, causing her already pale face to turn livid. She lowered her head and was filled with a gloomy aura:

"Stop talking...don't you say you know someone who can help me deal with the Arlong Pirates?!!"

After finishing speaking, Nami raised her head cautiously, looking at Uchiha Feiyu with a slight hint of hope in her eyes.

"You...you can't lie to me..."

"Are you lying to me? I believe you will know by then. The key is what price are you willing to pay? Don't talk about spending one night with me... I will buy a dozen slaves more beautiful than you for the price of slippery fruit. It’s all a piece of cake.”

Nami glanced at Uchiha Feiyu and said in frustration:

"Just tell me what you want directly! I don't have any other bargaining chips anyway!"

"Hmm... I'm going to the Grand Line, and I still need an obedient navigator. Are you willing to be the one?"

"The Grand Line!"

A glimmer of light flashed in Nami's eyes, even with a hint of expectation. As a talented and ambitious navigator, Nami certainly wanted to go to the Grand Line.

That place with its erratic climate and strange sea conditions can be called a death cemetery for ordinary pirates, but for all navigators who are interested in sailing, it is undoubtedly a holy place.

"Would you like me to be your navigator and go to the Grand Line? That's not impossible, but it must be done after the Arlong Pirates are defeated!"

The request made by Nami was not what Uchiha Feiyu expected. Before the problem of Cocoa Nishi Village was solved, Nami would definitely not leave the East China Sea no matter what.

The villagers of Cocoyasi Village and her sister are the biggest bond for this little thieving cat. Only when Cocoyasi Village is safe can she pursue her dream.

"Very good, then we have reached an agreement. I will help you deal with the threat of the Aaron Pirates, but from now on, you will be my navigator!"

"Let me tell you beforehand that I am not a soft-hearted captain. I will definitely do things very violently. I don't force you to have the same style as me, but at least when I do things, you can't hold me back!"

"Okay, as long as you can handle the Aaron Pirates, I can promise you the rest!"

Nami didn't think there was anything wrong with Uchiha Hiba's proposal. She had already become a little thieving cat, so what kind of moral obsessiveness was there?

Nami may really not be able to do some things to help others, but it is much easier to stand by and watch.

And although Nami can see that Uchiha Hiba is not a kind person, she is still a little stronger than ordinary pirates... right?

"Very good... Then the first thing is, you should eat this slippery fruit first!"

After taking out the slippery fruit, Uchiha Feiyu put it on the table without saying anything and pushed it in front of Nami.

"Uh... what?"

Nami looked at the pink and smooth devil fruit, swallowed her saliva, and showed an expression of disbelief on her face. She pointed at the devil fruit and stammered:

"You... you said... you said you would give this devil fruit... to me?!"

"If not you, who should I give it to?"

Uchiha Feiyu rolled his eyes and said lightly:

"You really want to sell this devil fruit! I'll teach you a lesson. In this world, power is always more useful than money!"

"Others hoard food, I hoard guns, others are my granary! Cocoa Nishi Village and the Arlong Pirates are the most typical examples."

"Although the slippery fruit is most valued for its beauty ability, it is actually a relatively powerful fruit when used in combat. , especially in terms of potential, as long as it is well developed, it can also compete with the top devil fruits. "

"And as far as I know, Nami, your skin should be very sensitive! Even just by relying on the touch of the skin, you can also sense the climate outside. From this aspect, you and this devil fruit also have a very good compatibility. "

"As long as you can develop 30% to 50% of the potential of the slippery fruit, even if you only rely on your own strength, it is enough to kill the Dragon Pirates!"

This is not nonsense. Once the slippery fruit is well developed, it is almost equivalent to physical attack immunity, and even has a weakening effect on many energy attacks. Once it reaches the realm of mastering friction, the speed will also be greatly improved, and the auxiliary effect on agile physical masters can be said to be immediate.

Even with the power of this devil fruit, once it is awakened, it is enough to give any physical master a headache-the so-called power comes from the root. If you can't even stand steadily, anyone can turn you into a rolling gourd.

Flying ability users are not much better. If the friction with the air is zero, unless you are a gravity-based flying ability user, you can't fly to the sky even if you have wings.

This is just a relatively superficial application. If you go deep into the microscopic field, the things that this devil fruit can do will be even more perverted-of course, it is not easy to develop this devil fruit to the microscopic field.

Arlong is a figure in the East China Sea, but looking at the whole world, he is just a third-rate character. As long as Nami can make good use of the ability of the slippery fruit, it is not difficult to beat them.

To put it bluntly, Arlong's level, even if thrown into the Impel Downs, is just a commodity that can only stay on the first or second floor. Two years later, Nami can single-handedly brush the entire Arlong Pirates.

"But... my talent is not very good..."

Nami said hesitantly. In terms of navigator talent, Nami feels that even if she is not the best talent in the entire sea, she is one of the best talents. But when it comes to personal strength, Nami's talent can only be regarded as mediocre.

Among ordinary people, she is quite good. After training, she can fight ten people alone. This is Nami's physical talent. It sounds good, but think about the numerous monsters in this sea. Not to mention the immortality of the steel balloon, even the fat woman Aritar can be regarded as a little superman compared with ordinary people.

So Nami, who is excellent among ordinary people, is almost meaningless in this sea. It is precisely because of this that Nami is afraid of wasting this devil fruit.

"Why are you talking so much? Eat it quickly!"

Uchiha Feiyu, who had been a little impatient for a long time, stood up directly, picked up the devil fruit on the table, and then stuffed it into Nami's mouth.

"Wait a minute... Wuwuwu, uh wuwuwu!"

Nami just opened her mouth to say something, and the smooth devil fruit was stuffed directly into her mouth, and then a bitter, fishy, ​​sticky and strange taste spread in her mouth.

"Ugh... It's so disgusting... What the hell is this smell!"

After retching several times, Nami finally came to her senses. She spit a few times and took a sip of rum, and then she felt that the bad taste in her mouth was removed a little.

"You actually ate such a precious devil fruit like this... Let me make it clear first, I don't have the money to pay!"

"... You really care about money. It doesn't matter if you don't have money, but such a large amount of chips have been invested. It's too late for you to regret it."

"You should deal with the Arlong Pirates first! Otherwise, I won't go with you..."

Nami muttered, but she also knew that since Uchiha Feiyu even ate the devil fruit for herself, he was obviously very confident in dealing with Arlong.

"Don't worry about this, Arlong won't be proud for a few days!"

A few days later.

Sheltz Town.

This small town where the 153rd Navy Branch is stationed seems to have just recovered from the turmoil. In the town, you can still see many traces of battles.

However, the civilians here did not seem to be affected. Instead, they were all very happy and lively, as if they were holding a banquet.

"It's really strange... What happened here? Did they repel the pirates' attack?"

Walking in the small town, Nami couldn't help but feel that the environment here was out of tune with ordinary civilians, and she couldn't help but ask questions.

"On the contrary, according to the information I know and the news I heard from the town, a few days ago, a straw hat boy who claimed to be a pirate came here and beat up the 153 base branch stationed in the town. Commander, Captain Monka of the Naval Branch.”

"Huh? The Marine Captain was defeated?"

Nami glanced around. Although the building was somewhat damaged, it was just the aftermath of the fight. It didn't look like it had been looted by pirates. This made her a little confused:

"How could this be? Then what are these civilians happy about? And this town doesn't look like it was looted."

"Because this Colonel Mengka is a more terrifying disaster to these small town residents than pirates!"

Uchiha Feiyu shrugged and said calmly:

"This kind of thing is normal! The naval branches entrenched in various sea areas have gradually become the guardians of the sea areas into king-like rulers in the long-term development. In terms of safety, the danger is even greater than that of pirates.”

"After all, what pirates do is one-shot business, and what they steal is only some floating wealth. They are not interested in things like land and houses."

"On the contrary, these navy branch chiefs have been ruling this sea area, just like the Arlong Pirates in your Cocoa West Village. They will exploit the residents here for a long time, and not only collect money, but also force These residents work for free.”

When she said this, Nami's face turned completely dark. She not only thought of the 100,000 berries that Cocoa West Village would give to Aaron every month, but also thought of the fish-man paradise that Aaron and the others built - That was obviously not a building built by the fishmen themselves, but the blood and sweat of the residents near that sea area.

"I see... No wonder the naval captain was defeated. The residents here seem to be celebrating the New Year... But where is the person you are looking for? Didn't you say you wanted to find someone to help me deal with Aaron?"

Nami originally thought that what Hiba Uchiha was looking for was the commander of this naval base! But now it seems that this naval captain who has been defeated by the pirates is obviously not the person Uchiha Feiyu is looking for.

"Haha, do you know the identity of the pirate who defeated Colonel Mengka?"

Nami was stunned for a moment, then rolled her eyes:

"How do I know who he is? By the way, you are not going to let this pirate help!"
