One Piece: Start Collecting Nicolo

He didn't doubt Caesar's words. There was no point in telling such a lie when he could find out the truth with just a phone call.

But this also means that his idea of ​​joining forces with Caesar and taking advantage of the power of the World Government and Kaido to gain benefits has failed.

After all, as Kaido's son-in-law, with Caesar's strength, the position of Seven Warlords of the Sea really means nothing to him.

"The position of Shichibukai? What do I need it for? Legal plunder?"

Caesar scoffed. "Is this what you call a drink and a chat? You don't even seem to have the slightest sincerity."

“Business is negotiated…”

Seeing that his plan had failed, Doflamingo immediately changed the subject: "After all, Lord Caesar and I have only just met. How about you name a price? We can just consider it as making friends. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse even a single thing."

"also."

Caesar nodded and said, "I'm just looking for a devil fruit recently. If you can help me find it, then the grudge between you and me will be written off."

"A devil fruit...would you mind telling me about it?"

Doflamingo felt relieved. He was not afraid of Caesar making conditions, but he was afraid that this guy was determined to find trouble.

"Dark fruit."

Caesar said calmly, "I suppose you've heard of it too?"

"Fufufu... Of course, the most vicious natural type."

Doflamingo immediately laughed. He was the best at finding things.

Moreover, the most vicious natural system is meaningless to him.

Although it is said to be the most vicious, it can only restrain those with special abilities. Its destructive power is not as overbearing as fruits like Thunder, Flash, and Magma. It cannot even be transformed into elements. In the natural system, it can only be regarded as the second-tier level at best.

Of course, all this is based on the premise that you can only eat one fruit.

"If it's just a devil fruit, no problem."

"Of course it's more than that."

Caesar shook his head slightly. "Come to think of it, I also happen to know some information about artificial devil fruits. That thing should have been developed by Vegapunk. So far, there is only one failed product, and it is extremely expensive..."

Hearing this, Doflamingo's heart sank again.

"Fufufu... Your Excellency seems to know more than I thought. No wonder you're so unimpressed by my proposal."

"I'm not interested in who you're trading with. I only have two requests in this regard."

Caesar held up two fingers. "First, I want Vegapunk's failed product! Second, subsequent mass-produced products must not have side effects! The research time can be slowed down, but the two fruits I want must be delivered to me as soon as possible."

"How was it? Not too difficult, right?"

Caesar spread his hands slightly: "It's hard to say about the Dark Dark Fruit, but that artificial fruit is now stored in Punk Hazard. With your means, it won't be difficult to get it."

"One is natural, the other is a failed artificial product..."

Doflamingo fell into deep thought: "Is the one with Vegapunk really a failure?"

"It is indeed a failure."

Caesar chuckled, his face calm and his heart still, and said, "But it is also a unique piece. Vegapunk has given up the research on artificial devil fruits, which also means that this is the only one in the world that was created by him."

"Since you've investigated me, you should know that my biggest hobby is collecting."

"I see, it's a unique piece..."

Doflamingo's doubts were slightly dispelled when he saw that Caesar showed no sign of lying in his observation Haki. Indeed, for those who like collecting, there is nothing more attractive than the word "unique piece".

"Fufufufufu... If that happens, even I'll have to bleed profusely."

"This is just compensation for me personally."

Caesar shook his head slightly: "But I can help you recover in other ways."

Hearing that there were benefits, Doflamingo immediately became interested: "Sir, why don't you tell me about it?"

"I want devil fruits. I'll take as many as you can get."

Caesar snapped his fingers and tossed a gold coin towards Doflamingo. "Don't worry about the money. Even if it's just an ordinary animal, I'm willing to buy it at the standard of 200 million per piece - payment in gold!"

"Oh?"

Doflamingo casually caught the gold coin, squeezed it gently, and felt a little moved.

Gold is a hard currency, especially in some war-torn countries, its value can even increase several times!

"It's a very tempting price, but devil fruits are not easy to get. If they just come to you, it's not difficult. But if you deliberately search for them, it will be very time-consuming and laborious."

"Plus the big sharp swords, each worth two hundred million."

"This thing is even rarer than a devil fruit. What's even worse is that most of them are in the hands of great swordsmen."

Doflamingo held his forehead helplessly. If it weren't for Caesar's serious expression, he would have suspected that the other party was making fun of him.

In fact, Caesar was really just making fun of him...

If Doflamingo could really get the Dark-Dark Fruit, then this guy would be useless.

But you have to act the whole way. If you're not sincere, how can you fool this old hand?

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!
