One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 650 Devil Fruit Speculations

"You bad guy! You made Sister Garrett cry!"

Uta, who had just walked in, saw Garrett crying bitterly, and immediately pointed at Lily and shouted. Her words made Lily stunned for a second, but then she smiled and shook her head.

"Don't talk nonsense Uta, Garrett is crying tears of joy, not because she was bullied!"

When Buggy saw the devil fruit in Garrett's hand, he was stunned. If it weren't for Uta's shout, Buggy might not have reacted. He could only helplessly pat Uta's head and said.

"Oh? Really? But why would you cry when you are happy? Shouldn't you laugh when you are happy?"

Uta felt that Baki was lying to her, but she had no evidence. For example, she was always happy every time she ate something delicious, but she never wanted to cry, only to laugh.

"It's different. You'll understand when you grow up."

Baki smiled and ruffled Uta's hair, then led Uta forward.

"Sorry for the expense, Madam Lily. We will pay you back for the Devil Fruit."

Buggy said to Lily very seriously that although Lily might not accept the money, they had to give it. It was etiquette, politeness, and human duty. Now that Garette has joined the Red Hair Pirates, she will need him, the vice-captain, and the captain Shanks to help pay for the devil fruit she received. They are pirates, people who yearn for freedom, but they are definitely not completely lawless and ignorant of the rules.

"No need, this is from Lingling to Garrett. It's something a mother gives to her daughter. You don't have to pay for it."

Lily smiled and waved her hand. Bucky was a man who knew the rules, and Lily knew that very well. So she knew that as long as she explained things clearly, there would be no misunderstandings.

"Lingling? Oh, it's Auntie. So that's the case. We'd be disrespectful to refuse."

When Buggy heard the name Linlin, he was stunned for a moment, but then he realized that it was Big Mom's name. Calling her by her nickname every day, she almost forgot that Big Mom's real name was Charlotte Linlin. Compared to Kaido and Lily who use their real names every day, the other three Four Emperors go out every day using the names on the wanted list.

"It's okay, take the kid back and have some rest. This is the first time I've seen someone eat a spicy devil fruit. It seems that for Garrett, the most unpalatable taste is spicy."

Lily smiled and shook her head and said, it is well known that devil fruits taste bad, but how bad they taste is unknown. For this reason, Lily and Kaido did an experiment and asked everyone to describe the taste of the devil fruit they ate. Except for Archaon who avoided all this by taking advantage of his large body size, everyone else wrote it down. Quinn was the most serious among them because he was the only one who had eaten the devil fruit twice, and not the same devil fruit.

After careful comparison, Kaido and Lily discovered that the unpalatable taste of devil fruits is not fixed. For example, Quinn and Maso both ate the Brachiosaurus Fruit, but their descriptions of it were completely different. Quinn said that the taste was bitter and he would never forget it, while Maso said it was an unimaginable stinky smell. The same fruit tasted two different ways, and there must be a reason for that. Combined with the fact that the tastes of the two devil fruits Quinn ate were surprisingly consistent, the unpalatable taste of the devil fruit is likely to simulate the most unpalatable taste in a person's subconscious mind.

Of course, there must be other loopholes in this idea. Let's not talk about anything else. Just for Garette this time, the spiciness is not a taste, but a pain. Why can Garette taste the spiciness from the devil fruit, and the kind of spiciness that can make her face red? This is what makes people feel strange.

"Okay, thank you Mrs. Lily."

Buggy didn't know what Lily was thinking. There was one benefit when he ate the devil fruit, that is, he swallowed it in extreme grief and anger, and didn't notice what the devil fruit tasted like. This was a blessing in disguise and got rid of the nightmares of many devil fruit users. Buggy helped Garette, who finally woke up from the spiciness, and thanked Lily, and left with Garette. Of course, before leaving, Lily didn't forget to ask them to take the devil fruit that Garette hadn't finished eating. No one knew the difference between eating the whole devil fruit and just taking a bite. Unless they had to, no one would choose to only take a bite, not to mention that the devil fruit after that would become a tasteless ordinary fruit.

Before Garette left, she thanked Lily while enduring the spiciness left in her mouth. Seeing this, Uta finally believed that Lily did not bully Garette. After all, in her opinion, Garette, who was powerful and cooked delicious food, would not thank someone who hurt her.

"What kind of devil fruit?"

After walking out of the main hall, Bucky let go of Garette's hand. Garette had recovered at this moment and no longer needed his support. Garette stood up straight, but she didn't know why. Although her mouth was healed, she felt reluctant to let go of Bucky's hand. Garette felt a little strange, but didn't think much about it. She thought that she might have been confused by the spiciness.

"I like the Parahuman Butter Fruit very much. From now on, I don't have to worry about running out of butter when making desserts. It saves a lot of money."

Garrett half-jokingly said that it was a lie to save money, but it was true that it suited her very well, because her favorite snacks were butter biscuits and butter bread. As long as she developed this fruit well, she would definitely not have to worry about food and drink in the future. Moreover, the food produced by the food-type devil fruit ability user could exist for a long time. Garrett knew that she was definitely not a burden now, because she could help sell things, and high-quality butter was also hard currency, wasn't it? Buggy tutored her on some of the rules of the Red Hair Pirates these days, and also told her some ways of making money for the Red Hair Pirates.

Garette had never expected that treasure hunting and reselling were the only source of income for the Red Hair Pirates. Moreover, if the Red Hair Pirates had not obtained some supplies from the Ten Thousand Nations, they might not have much money left. In the past few days, the group had considered whether they could make some snacks to sell, but now they didn't need to. With the Butter Fruit, the Red Hair Pirates had a commodity that they could trade for a long time.

"Oh, it's very good. The food-type devil fruit is indeed the specialty of the Big Mom Pirates. It seems that Big Mom has chosen it specially."

Buggy nodded. He didn't think about selling goods. At least for now, they didn't need to worry about any resource problems before they finished their voyage to the New World. The only thing they needed to consider was how to store the excess supplies. At this point, Buggy had a headache. He didn't want a bunch of good supplies to be spoiled because of other troubles before they could be used. That would be a waste of things.

"Indeed, Mom still cares about me a lot, so! I must grow up! I absolutely cannot go back like this! Mom has prepared so many things for me! I absolutely cannot let her down!"

Garrett clenched her fists and said with confidence.

"Woo-lo-lo-lo-lo! It looks like morale is high. I was thinking that since you just ate the Devil Fruit, I would let you take it easy during this training. But now it seems that it is not necessary. You should join the training too! As Lingling's daughter! Don't embarrass her! Wu-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo!"

Just after Garrett made her wish, Kaido's voice approached along with his signature laugh. Looking at his appearance, he was probably drunk.

“No problem! Come on! Uncle Kaido! I will never back down!”

Even with Kaido's oppressive figure standing in front of her, Garrett did not retreat at all. On the contrary, she was so excited that she seemed to want to practice with Kaido on the spot.

"Woo-la-la-la-la-la! Very nice look, I hope you can perform like this in the training ground. Don't cry then."

Kaido grinned and nodded with great satisfaction, but at the same time, Buggy's expression was a little strange. He asked tentatively: "Mr. Kaido, you are here, how are Shanks and the others doing?"

"Wulala! Those kids? They are still too young. I'm afraid they have all been carried to the dormitory by now. Wullaala!" As Kaido laughed, the situation that Buggy least wanted to see happened.
