One Piece: Inheriting the Shendu Template, I Summon Demons

Indeed, it's not appropriate for me, the union boss, to personally carry out these kinds of delegated tasks!

The union should recruit more people in the future so they can experience firsthand what exploitation in the 21st century is like!

.........

Chapter 124 Heading to Dressrosa! The Underworld!

From Barrett's words, Roche learned that the next mission was to kill a corrupt naval captain.

The reasons are similar to the previous one, except this time it's not pirates harming civilians, but rather incompetent navy personnel holding positions of power.

Apart from this, there are no other assigned tasks.

This makes sense, since Devil Fruits are something that can only be encountered by chance, and contacting the Devil's Guild is quite difficult. There's also the possibility that some people might encounter a Devil Fruit but not recognize it at all.

It was quite unexpected that the union would be entrusted with three projects after its establishment.

Following the location indicated in the mission, Luo Xiu set off to begin the hunt.

Several hours later, Luo Xiu secretly withdrew from a Marine branch and successfully obtained the third Devil Fruit, increasing the fusion rate of the Earth Demon to about 80%!

"In this world, there are still very few fruits like Logia-type and Mythical Zoan-type! Most of them are ordinary types!"

Luo Xiu couldn't help but sigh. According to the system's evaluation, the three Devil Fruits he obtained were of rather average quality.

If there are rare seeds, perhaps one or two fruits could activate a demon.

"And my hunch was right, something big is about to happen!" While infiltrating the naval branch and observing the actions of the naval soldiers, Luo Xiu discovered a strange phenomenon.

These naval soldiers stood solemnly, as if they were urgently carrying out some mission. Supplies and personnel, after being selected and arranged, set sail on their warships.

Everything was quiet. If it weren't for this mission to infiltrate the branch and kill the branch colonel, it would have been impossible to find out.

As the dominant force on the high seas, the navy is usually very flamboyant, but this time it acted so mysteriously, which made Luo Xiu wary.

There is reason to suspect that the Navy Headquarters is brewing something big.

Luo Xiu understood this, after all, he had caused such a ruckus in Impel Down and now he had established the Devil Guild, yet the World Government hadn't sent anyone to hunt him down.

The Navy Headquarters has not taken any action during this period.

It would be strange if it weren't for some preparation.

And just then.

Another Den Den Mushi (snail phone) rang.

This time, it was the Den Den Mushi on the other side of Luo Xiu's body that rang.

Take it out and connect it.

"Hey!"

"I am Luo Xiu!"

"Boss Luo Xiu, it's me!" The voice on the other end of the phone was suppressed yet excited.

"Oh!" Luo Xiu recognized the voice, nodded, and asked, "So, you got a Devil Fruit?"

The caller was a heavy prisoner from Level 6 of Impel Down who had recently joined the Blackbeard Pirates.

"no!"

“However, I have something to report!” At this moment, on the other side, Avaro Pizarro, who had two bull horns and unusually thick blue hair, squatted in a dark corner and whispered his report while pressing down on the Den Den Mushi.

Outside in the corner, Shiryu of the Rain kept smoking a cigar, puffing out clouds of smoke, while another guy with a barrel of liquor drank and flicked his tongue.

They're in charge of keeping watch!

"Speak!" Upon hearing that there was no Devil Fruit, Luo Xiu lost interest and said indifferently.

"Boss Luo Xiu, I told you, can I join the guild instead?"

"Oh shit!"

"Speak quickly!" Luo Xiu urged impatiently when he heard that you were still making conditions!

"That idiot Blackbeard recently captured Ace, the second division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, and handed him over to the Marines!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Xiu frowned sharply, instinctively recalling a major event... the Marineford War.

Could it be that the navy's secret operations are preparations for the Marineford War?

If this were in the original story, Luo Xiu would undoubtedly believe it was this event, but since he is in this world and has experienced a series of events with the Navy, it's hard to say whether the timeline will change.

For this reason, Luo Xiu rarely applies the plot template from the original work.

We can't jump to conclusions about this matter; it might just be a smokescreen.

"Keep digging for information from Blackbeard's side, and report back to me if anything happens!" Rosh instructed the Den Den Mushi.

"Boss Luo Xiu, if you keep digging for information, can I join the guild in return?"

"Oh shit!"

"Let's see how you do!" Luo Xiu was so stunned that he quickly hung up the phone.

"We need to investigate further!"

"If it's really targeting me, then improving my strength is even more urgent!" Luo Xiu stroked his chin, pondering where to get a Devil Fruit next!

Obtaining it from the delegated task is currently useless, so this option is excluded.

You can go to the various kingdoms and force them to hand over the Devil Fruits hidden in their treasuries.

The moment the thought crossed Luo Xiu's mind, he dismissed it.

The major kingdoms are probably in a wait-and-see mode right now. And it's not even a question of whether the other side will hand it over if we do this. The key is that we don't know which kingdom has it!

Finally, Rosh thought of a place where he could obtain a Devil Fruit.

The underground world, an auction.

Devil Fruits are frequently auctioned off there!

It can also confirm whether the World Government is secretly preparing for the Marineford War.

With this in mind, Luo Xiu disappeared into the clouds and headed towards his destination, the Kingdom of Dressrosa.

.......

Half a day later.

Kingdom of Dressrosa.

Underground world.

The noise and clamor filled every corner; pirates, villains, civilians, and even the navy were everywhere.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Some were dealing drugs, some were pimps, some were trading firearms, and others were crawling on the ground, humbly begging passersby.

It's like a microcosm of the One Piece world.

At the far end of the road stood a luxuriously decorated building, its dazzling lights contrasting sharply with the corrupt scene on the street.

This is the largest underground entertainment venue in the Kingdom of Dressrosa.

It features a casino, a flower market, an auction house...

Those who can get inside are either rich or powerful.

At the entrance, several scantily clad, hot-bodied hostesses stood, greeting the customers who came in.

They spotted a tall, upright man holding a black card walking towards them.

A bunny girl quickly stepped forward and greeted her in a deep voice, "Honorable customer, please come in!"

The newcomer was Luo Xiu. At this moment, he was wearing a mask and had put away the black card, which he had temporarily robbed from a wealthy middle-aged man.

Led by the bunny girl, Luo Xiu stepped into the entertainment venue, where he was greeted by a spacious and luxurious scene.

Various entertainment facilities are placed in their proper places, with beautiful female staff members standing nearby, ready to serve at any time.

The noisy guests made a series of sounds that reached Luo Xiu's ears.

I took a deep breath; the air was thick with the corrupting smell of money.

The bunny girl walked ahead of Luo Xiu, quietly explaining the situation, and finally looked at Luo Xiu and asked.

"Excuse me, are you going to a casino, an auction house, or... a kabuki theater?"

Chapter 125 Winning Money! Doflamingo!

"Is this Kabukicho you're talking about legitimate?" Luo Xiu swore he had absolutely no interest in it and was just asking out of curiosity.

Bunny Girl Wan'er smiled and explained, "Kabuki theaters can be broadly divided into three types!"

"Red-light district, ladyboy district, gay district!"

What are your preferences?

Luo Xiu's lips twitched. You Japanese are really something else! There's even a special area for men and women.

The thought of picking chrysanthemums by the eastern fence sent a shiver down my spine.

Sin, sin, sin!

I'm here on official business!

"Exchange these Pele for chips!" With that thought, Roche took out a large stack of high-denomination Pele from his pocket and handed it to the mature woman, taking out one as a tip.

Seeing that the masked man was so generous, the bunny girl burst into laughter, her eyes sparkling as she took the chips and strode away. A short while later, she returned with two stacks of chips.

They come in red, blue, and white.

White represents 10,000 Berries, blue represents 50,000 Berries, and red represents 100,000 Berries.

"Let's go to the casino!"

Back in the day, Chen Daozai turned 20 dollars into 37 million. Today, I, Luo Xiu, will turn 1 million into 100 million. No problem!

Following the bunny girl's steps, Luo Xiu arrived at the casino area of ​​the entertainment venue. What he saw were gambling tables of all sizes, and sexy dealers dressed in revealing clothes, who were in charge of dealing cards online.
