One Piece: Nico Robin Collection

Chapter 46 Bloodline Crucible

It's like fishing, you always have to put some bait.

Caesar doesn't care about the deal with Doflamingo, but he has to make Doflamingo feel that he cares so that he will be motivated to find things for him.

After all, raising livestock requires a pie in the sky...

"It's okay, don't worry."

Caesar waved his hand slightly. "As for the big sword, if you have the means, you can find someone to make it. As long as it can reach the level of a 21-gong big sword, that's fine."

"If that's the case, it's not a big problem."

Doflamingo nodded. Although the big sword was difficult to use, there were still people who could use it.

There are many famous craftsmen all over the world. Since Caesar is willing to spend money, he can only make money with tears and blood.

"Also, if you urgently need a devil fruit, I happen to have one in my hand," said Doflamingo.

He was not the kind of person who would believe everything Caesar said.

If you want a devil fruit, you have to show me money, right?

"I was originally planning to auction it off, but since you like collecting fruits, I might as well do you a favor and sell it directly to you."

"What fruit?"

"Buffalo Fruit·Buffalo Form."

"also."

Caesar nodded and said, "It's a buffalo, it's better than a caterpillar or something."

Given the nature of devil fruits, he wouldn't be surprised if a parahuman-type Poop Fruit appeared one day.

In comparison, the buffalo is already very good and is perfect for rewarding subordinates in the future.

"Send it over here. I'll give you the money and the goods."

A scarlet blood ball appeared out of thin air next to Caesar.

Under the cover of the fruit's ability, he reached out and took out two suitcases from the blood ball.

When I opened the suitcase, I saw two large boxes of gold bricks stacked neatly!

This ability...

Vampire fruit?
Or the blood-blood fruit?

Doflamingo used his Observation Haki to sweep across the gold, and after confirming that it was real gold, he no longer paid attention to it, but instead began to speculate about Caesar's fruit ability.

I almost forgot, this guy is Kaido's son-in-law.

So it really is that fruit, right?
vampire!
"Fufufu... What an enviable ability."

Doflamingo laughed and said, "Vampires... this is an ability that even the Celestial Dragons covet."

"Really? Then I have good taste."

Caesar nodded, acknowledging Doflamingo's guess.

“It’s quite good indeed.”

Doflamingo said calmly, "If this fruit were to be auctioned, it would be worth at least 2 billion. But I didn't expect it could even develop spatial abilities."

He really didn't doubt that this was the ability of the vampire fruit.

Firstly, Caesar's blood can block his observation Haki, so he can't see the tricks.

Secondly, there are indeed many fruits that seem to have nothing to do with space, but can develop space-related abilities, such as the swamp fruit.

He ordered someone to bring buffalo fruits, and soon a small wooden box was placed in front of Caesar.

Caesar opened the box, and inside was a banana-shaped fruit with arabesque patterns, buffalo horn-shaped branches at the top, and a black and gray body.

"System, collect!"

[Collection Item: Devil Fruit (Animal-type·Beef-beef Fruit·Buffalo Form)]

[Rarity: S]

[Collection Value: S] [Evaluation: Moo—What else do you want to hear?]

[Unlock Achievement: Collect ten devil fruits]

[Achievement Reward: Bloodline Furnace]

[Bloodline Furnace: Fusion of all one's own bloodline abilities, and completion of a bloodline evolution]

Ability integration?

Bloodline evolution?
This thing is good!
Caesar was delighted.

In the original plot, Blackbeard possesses both Dark and Tremor abilities, but in fact there is a big drawback.

That is, these two abilities are not compatible!

In addition to the different ability attributes, it is essentially because these are two independent demonic wills.

Caesar was originally worried about this. Although the upgraded fruit no longer had will and the power was completely attributed to himself, it was power from three different sources after all, and he was not sure if he could use it as he wished.

Now that he has the Blood Furnace, he no longer needs to worry about this.

Moreover, this thing integrates more than just the abilities of the devil fruit.

He can adapt and evolve the talents of other races by absorbing bloodline factors.

If only I could have the underwater breathing and swimming speed of the mermaids, the immense strength of the giants, and the moon lion form of the furries...

At that time, he won't care about willpower or purity. No matter what kind of enemy it is, he will just crush it with numbers.

As if noticing that Caesar's mood had improved, Doflamingo also chuckled softly, and his laughter seemed to have a little more sincerity.

This guy is indeed qualified to do business with me!
At least in terms of wealth...

"Fufufu... Looks like we've reached a consensus."

Doflamingo raised his glass and said, "I wish us a pleasant cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Caesar picked up the wine glass, gestured in the air, and drank it all in one gulp, rarely giving Doflamingo a good look.

"Next, should we also talk about the issue of world government?"

Putting down his wine glass, Doflamingo brought up the past again.

Due to the shortage of seastone resources, the pressure from the world government is imminent.

"We don't want the position of Shichibukai anymore, but we must give you the money and food you deserve!"

Caesar wiped his mouth and said, "Well? I've already made the biggest concession."

"Um…"

Doflamingo was silent for a moment. "You should know that the World Government doesn't care about resources or the Seven Warlords of the Sea. What those guys value most is actually Seastone."

"Seastone can be exported, but sales won't increase in the short term. Kaido has already wreaked havoc on Wano Country. If this continues for five years at most, Wano Country will be completely wiped out."

Caesar shook his head, saying that the taxes from Goose City had been collected ninety years later.

"As the King of Dressrosa, you should be well aware of how much resources and financial revenue a country with a healthy economy can generate, not to mention that Wano Country is already a country rich in resources."

"Is this so..."

Doflamingo frowned and secretly cursed Kaido for his short-sightedness.

He is also a villain, and although he has harmed many citizens, at least the national GDP has increased, and the annual tax revenue is not small.

Before he came, Dressrosa was a notoriously poor country, and the whole country had to tighten its belts to get enough gold!

They clearly occupy a key route at the entrance to the New World, are so close to Fishman Island, and have such convenient transportation, yet they are still in such a miserable state...

Nowadays, people look at the former King Liku with disdain, and poverty may be one of the factors!

As for Kaido's behavior of drinking poison to quench thirst, it is basically on the same level as King Riku.

If he were to occupy the natural fortress in Wano Country that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the capital in his hands would at least increase by ten times!
