Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

They are the enemy they fear most and want to defeat the most.

In the end, they were utterly helpless against this man from Qinghai...

This man from Qinghai was stronger than they could have imagined.

He still feels a deep sense of fear when he thinks about that earth-shattering punch from his opponent...

The Shandian warrior Rachi was equally stunned: "Our greatest enemy was defeated so easily? Am I dreaming...?"

"Luckily, they didn't attack us beforehand. We were absolutely fortunate not to have provoked them!"

Another Shandian warrior, Braham, couldn't help but feel extremely fortunate.

Fortunately, they hadn't offended the other party to death, otherwise the Shandia tribe might have been wiped out.

This monster is definitely not something they can resist...

Leaving aside the astonishment, shock, and disorientation of these Shandian warriors.

The members of the Blackwing Demon Adventurer Group looked on with an air of complete entitlement.

Although Enel's strength was somewhat beyond their expectations, he was able to barely fight Rocks.

But it's clear that Lox is stronger.

They knew this from the moment Rocks threw his first punch...

The outcome was exactly as they expected!

"Wow, wow, wow, is this the Rumble-Rumble Fruit?"

Nami ran toward Rocks as soon as she saw the battle stop.

His eyes were fixed on the lightning-shaped Devil Fruit in Rocks' hand, a gleam brighter than if he had seen gold and silver treasure:

"This is for me, right? It's definitely for me, isn't it?"

Although Enel was defeated by Rocks, she had witnessed the destructive power of Enel's Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability.

This is definitely a very powerful Devil Fruit!

Nami was really tempted!

He was already imagining himself eating the Rumble-Rumble Fruit and wielding the power of lightning.

From now on, she will be "Thor" Nami!

"Little thief cat" is a thing of the past.

The next time she gets a bounty on her, it will definitely be more than five million Berries, five hundred million Berries would be more like it!

Rocks looked at the Rumble-Rumble Fruit in his hand and pretended to ponder before saying, "I need to think about it some more."

"Hey! Didn't we agree before that the Rumble-Rumble Fruit was for me!?"

Nami glared at Rocks with her beautiful eyes and said angrily, "Why have you changed your mind now? Are you going to make some other demands?"

"You can't do it this way!"

"The Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit is no ordinary Devil Fruit. If it were put up for auction, it would definitely be worth 500 million Berries and someone would be willing to put it up for sale."

Rocks raised an eyebrow, wanting to tease Nami: "I feel like I'd be losing out if I just gave it to you for free..."

"Then tell me what conditions you want!"

Nami pouted, looking unhappy, and grumbled, "But let's make this clear first, no lewdness, no lewdness at all!"

Lox smirked: "Stop talking about these things. I'm not a pervert!"

"Who knows? I, Nami, am so cute and beautiful. Who knows, you might have designs on me and plan to use the Rumble-Rumble Fruit to coerce me."

Nami scoffed, "But let me tell you, there's no way I'll agree!"

"Absolutely not!"

"..."

Rocks was speechless at Nami's confident statement and handed her the Rumble-Rumble Fruit: "Fine, fine, here you go. I didn't expect you to be this confident..."

I dared not tease the other person anymore.

To avoid the other party saying something even more outrageous.

He's someone who values ​​his reputation a lot; it wouldn't be good if rumors spread that he's a lolicon...

"I'm just telling the truth!"

Nami accepted the Rumble-Rumble Fruit from Rocks, unconcerned about Rocks' earlier actions.

Lox simply wanted to argue with her.

Xiao Luo is a very good person; she keeps her word and never goes back on her promises.

It's just that I have this bad habit of occasionally finding things to prank or tease her.

However, Nami has already passively taken Rocks' behavior as a sign of affection for her...

Is there a problem with liking her, Nami-sama?

of course not!

After all, Nami is so cute, so beautiful, and a great navigator!

Nami stared at the Rumble-Rumble Fruit in her hand, her eyes practically sparkling: "Can we eat it now? Or do we need to cook it first?"

Lox's eyes flashed, and he said, "Of course, fruit should be eaten directly."

Nami looked at the thorny Rumble-Rumble Fruit, hesitant to eat it: "Should I peel it? These thorns don't seem edible..."

Lox said very seriously, "You can't skin it."

"Okay, I'll take a bite first, ugh...it tastes awful...ugh...cough cough cough..."

Upon hearing Rocks' answer, Nami didn't hesitate and took a bite.

Then an explosive taste, indescribable in words, erupted in her mouth, causing Nami to gag. After managing to swallow, she coughed repeatedly...

Nami swore.

Even swill that has been rotten for a hundred years doesn't taste like this.

Although she didn't know what swill that had been rotten for a hundred years tasted like.

However, if she had to describe the taste of the Devil Fruit, she would say it was ten times worse than swill that had been rotten for a hundred years!

Good heavens, how can there be fruit that tastes like this?

No wonder people who eat Devil Fruits gain power; being able to eat one is already a price to pay, isn't it?

Rocks said in a serious tone, "You have to eat it all, otherwise you won't be able to inherit all the power of the Devil Fruit, and all your previous efforts may be in vain."

"...You're going to eat it all?"

Nami looked at the bite mark on her Rumble-Rumble Fruit and a look of fear appeared in her eyes.

She couldn't handle just one bite.

That indescribable taste was still churning in my mouth...

Eat it all...

As expected, gaining power comes at a price, and being unable to swim and having to endure this taste are definitely the price to pay!

"Ahhh! This is a Devil Fruit that could be worth hundreds of millions of Berries! I've never been this extravagant in my life! I, Nami, will go all out!!"

Nami gritted her teeth and stamped her foot, deciding to go all out.

He opened his mouth and stuffed the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, skin and stem, into it in just a few bites...

Then, gritting my teeth, I started chewing.

The indescribable, horrible taste on the tip of the tongue was even more intense, a hundred times worse than swill that had been rotten for a hundred years!

'Don't spit it out! Don't spit it out! This is fruit worth hundreds of millions of Berries!'

If it weren't for this thought in her mind, Nami would definitely have vomited.

'Gulp!'

Nami swallowed the uniquely flavored fruit in her mouth.

Tears welled in his eyes from the awful taste, and he coughed repeatedly, "Cough cough cough... How can something taste so awful?"

"Ugh... Ugh..."

A dry cough was followed by a series of dry heaves.

He looked extremely disheveled, as if he were about to die...

"Haha, hahahaha!"

Seeing Nami's disheveled state, Rocks finally couldn't help but burst into laughter.

He tricked Nami, which made him happy.

Devil Fruits are indeed hard to eat, but... Nami's reaction is a bit too exaggerated, isn't it?

Could it be that different Devil Fruits actually taste different?

may be.

The Black Wing Demon Fruit and the Great White Pig Fruit do indeed taste different.

The Great White Pig Fruit is even worse...

Hearing Rocks' laughter, Nami glared at him: "What are you laughing at? You've eaten a Devil Fruit too, don't tell me your Black Wing Demon Fruit tastes good!?"

Locke suppressed a laugh: "It was indeed awful, but I only took one bite..."

In fact, Rocks ate both the Black Wing Demon Fruit and the Great White Pig Fruit.

He ate the Blackwing Demon Fruit because he was very hungry; it tasted bad, but it filled his stomach.

The Great White Pig Fruit is purely for the sake of more "energy".

However, to provoke Nami, Rocks has to tell a lie; that would make it more fun...

Rocks had a really bad sense of humor!
