One Piece: Nobody has more Devil Fruits than me.

When it comes to developing Devil Fruits, Russell is the authority.

"Yes, should we wake her up?"

Ella was no stranger to the familiar scent of hormones filling the room; she was the one who had helped examine the Snake Mother's body.

She glanced at the damp bedding and then looked away.

Thanks to Russell, she has been sleeping very well these past few days.

"No need, let her stay on the ship. Don't let those navy men in Loguetown steal my ship."

Russell did not believe that the navy was brainless.

Unless Smoker also has the headstrong, impulsive nature of a red-haired pirate.

God avoids me, but I don't; is he more powerful than God?

When Russell and Ella walked onto the deck, the pirates had already brought out all their loot from the past few days: gold, jewels, and surplus weapons and ammunition, piled up like mountains.

The Demon Pirates didn't need many guns or ammunition; they preferred cannonballs, which they usually used for exchanging cannon fire before boarding maneuvers.

If you don't have a sniper in your crew who can blow up a ship with a single shot, you might as well just charge in with a knife.

Without a doubt, the knife is faster within seven steps.

Loguetown is much more prosperous than small towns like Shells. As a town known as the place of beginning and end, it is a must-pass place on the way to the Grand Line, not to mention that there is a popular tourist spot on it where the Pirate King Roger was executed.

Traders and pirates came and went in an endless stream.

The black market there must be quite shrewd; they should be able to swallow his ill-gotten gains.

Russell was a reasonable person. When people do business, they all think that making a profit is making a profit, right?

If those black market guys think they should be on good terms with the Don Quixote family and not do business with him, then he also knows a little bit of martial arts.

Don't like doing business?

Then grab it!

Russell's entire pile of stuff is worth at least two billion dollars. He asked a few more members of the alien beast unit to help carry it.

“Captain Russell, if you’re talking about selling these things, I know a place. A lot of the black market people used to hang out in that tavern,” Bucky shouted.

"You're very familiar with Loguetown?"

Russell asked, "When were you last here?"

“Ah, I was here when Captain Roger was executed, and I parted ways with Shanks in Loguetown.” Bucky recalled some unpleasant memories.

Shanks actually wanted him to be his subordinate back then?

"My life, Uncle Bucky, is no less than..."

Before he could finish speaking, Bucky rubbed his hands together and looked at Russell with a beaming smile. "Of course, I've always had great respect for Captain Russell!"

He's not a landlubber anymore; Bucky speaks with confidence now.

Before he ate a Devil Fruit, he and Shanks were known as the two apprentice heroes in Roger's crew.

“Tell me the location. I see you seem to have a place you want to go. After touring the old area, remember to recruit some technical talent,” Russell said.

The Demon Pirates are quite separate in this regard.

There are many technical personnel serving combat personnel, but in combat, quality is more important than quantity.

"Leave it to me!"

Pakistan made a firm promise.

......

The place of beginning and end—that nickname sounds quite classy.

As the place where the Pirate King was executed, it is quite a topic of discussion.

The shipping lanes are quite busy.

They were even used to pirate ships.

As Russell disembarked from the Snard, he was accompanied by several alien beasts carrying a large pile of boxes, attracting the attention of many people.

This was very eye-catching, but no one thought he was a pirate because of his handsome appearance; instead, he looked like a nobleman from some country.

The skin from the Smooth-Smooth Fruit was still too authoritative; one woman even secretly reminded him, "Young man, don't be so conspicuous here."

The underworld is rampant here. There is a gang leader whose territory spans 150 streets, as well as many underworld merchants connected to the Grand Line.

Of course, there's no need to worry about pirates; a powerful Marine is guarding this place.

Russell smiled. She was a rather charming and wifely woman. He lifted her chin. "Is that so? What if I'm a pirate too?"

The woman, somewhat blinded by greed, said, "The sea... pirates aren't out of the question either..."

In a daze, Russell had already left, and the woman slowly realized what he had just said.

Sea, pirates?

The location Bucky mentioned was easy to find.

Gold Roger Bar.

The area here looks quite lively, but this bar is rather desolate. It looks old from the outside, and even more so inside, with the stairs covered in moss.

Pushing open the door, I found there wasn't a single guest in sight.

It's an old shop.

The owner still uses this name; he seems to be a guy with a lot of sentimentality.

"Should I say welcome? You don't look like you're here for drinks."

Sitting on a chair was a short, elderly man wearing a purple hat. Behind his small sunglasses, he looked on with a questioning gaze. "You look unfamiliar. You're not from around here."

"I came here on someone's recommendation, but I'm a little disappointed. Is this place deserted?"

Russell glanced at the table in front of the old man and saw a bottle of wine and a skull.

It looks pretty scary.

However, his somber appearance suggests that the old man has lost the most important thing about this sea.

Ambition!

"Introduced by someone, so they must be a regular customer. I'm really ashamed to say that if I had come a few years earlier, this place would have been much more lively."

The old man took a sip of his drink and asked, "Would you mind telling me what you need?"

Russell's demeanor was unlike that of an ordinary pirate, so he spoke very politely.

Having lived for so many years, experience is the most valuable asset. His eyes aren't blind; if it were a brat, he wouldn't be so polite.

"Ah, you have a ton of stuff on hand, and you need to find a place to sell it. Do you have any connections?"

Russell laughed.

thing?

"How many?" the old man asked.

Russell said, "There are too many; they can't all get in."

elder:"......"

Chapter 81 Cowardly Acts Will Not Be Tolerated!

Pirates don't live a good life before they have their own territory; they spend their days at sea worrying about making a living.

I have no money!

So what if you have territory but no money? You can't always rob people. There will always be places where you need to pay, even within a pirate crew.

Therefore, the most important thing for someone to develop their territory peacefully is to have money.

Where did this ruthless person come from?

After Roger, the East Blue should not allow anyone as awesome as him to exist.

The shopkeeper looked at Russell's face, seemed to remember something, and went behind the counter to take out a new bounty poster.

"Devil Russell, 230 million Berries?"

The boss's face was full of astonishment.

"It seems my reputation is spreading quite well."

Russell nodded calmly. He had caused a great stir one after another, and it would be strange if the people of Donghai did not know him. He dominated the headlines of newspapers for many days in a row.

"Yes, several officers from headquarters have suffered defeats in succession."

"The strongest rookie pirate in recent years."

"The pirate supernova who was defeated by Hanafuda, a former member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

The boss's string of words made Russell wonder if he was even a fan.

Do you know that much about it?
