Sailing: I Open Treasure Chests in the Pirate World

Pity……

Ian is not opposed to Devil Fruits.

However, he also has very serious stereotypes.

For example, that infamous line—

Even dogs wouldn't eat that kind of fruit!

There are far too many people playing with fire on the high seas.

Fire-based abilities are so prevalent, it's like the slaves in the Sabaody Archipelago.

And yet, the "original owner" of the "Flame-Flame Fruit" can't even outplay others when it comes to playing with fire...

No wonder they "left the group"!

But if you say it's the "Flame-Flame Fruit," even a dog wouldn't eat it.

As for the common and ancient species of the Zoan type, they're so bad that even a dog would shake its head in disbelief.

Chapter 5 This Paramecia-type Devil Fruit is yours, Ian Adrian!

If given a choice.

Ian had absolutely no interest in the Allosaurus Fruit.

However, his prolonged staring still caught Aokiji's attention.

Ian, a "semi-native," has his opinion on Devil Fruits.

The views on Devil Fruits differ greatly from those of the "natives" on the blue planet.

For example, Ian politely declined to accept the Allosaurus Fruit.

However, Aokiji believed that the Allosaurus Fruit was the strongest of the three Devil Fruits he had taken out at that moment!

Who cares about "mud" or "whips"...

An ancient species belonging to the animal family.

Hand-to-hand combat is the only way to win!

Aokiji picked up the Devil Fruit in the very center and asked a question.

"Ian, is this Allosaurus Fruit the one you want?"

"No!"

Ian resolutely refused.

"I'm thinking about the other two Paramecia-type Devil Fruits now!"

Paramecia-type Devil Fruits have a wide range of potential limits.

It's like the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and the Silence-Silence Fruit.

The former can trigger devastating "sea earthquakes," "earthquakes," and "air earthquakes."

As for the latter, it's unbeatable in improving sleep quality... right?

Ian recalled the contents recorded in the "Devil Fruit Encyclopedia".

[Paramecia Type - Whip-Whip Fruit].

The user can command anything he whips, including inanimate objects.

This is a "super slave owner fruit"!

If the Whip-Whisper Fruit falls into the hands of some unscrupulous people.

So... hehehe...

Ian put certain unhealthy thoughts out of his mind.

【Paramecia-type Clay-Clay Fruit】.

Its ability is to create and control clay, and it can also become a clay figure itself.

If you have to say it.

This is actually a "special Paramecia-type Devil Fruit".

I've made up my mind!

Ian pointed to the Devil Fruit, whose skin was milky white and whose flesh was piled up in layers like soil.

"I want the Clay Fruit!"

Seeing that Ian had made his final choice.

Aokiji did not offer any rebuttal.

To what extent can the abilities of Devil Fruits be developed?

Ultimately, it depends on the individual's own level of understanding.

Some Devil Fruits, despite their immense power, are used in a way that resembles that of a clown.

Some Devil Fruits, despite having very weak abilities, have been developed into unique features by the Joker.

At this moment, Aokiji chose to believe in Ian's talent!

Aokiji personally handed the Clay Fruit to Ian.

"This Paramecia-type Devil Fruit is yours, Ian Adrian!"

The moment Ian obtained the Clay-Clay Fruit, he was moved to speak.

"Sir! I love the Navy so much! I love the Sharp Blade Force so much!"

He was given a Devil Fruit as soon as he enlisted.

The Sharp Blade Unit is really daring!

"Ah la la."

Aokiji chuckled to himself.

How much do you like it?

Ian pondered for a moment, then began chanting.

"Evil is coming, and I will begin my watch from this day forward, until my death."

I will not covet fame or fortune, nor will I vie for honor or favor.

"I will do my duty faithfully, even unto death."

"I am the blade in the darkness, the guardian of the sea."

"I am the shield that guards justice, the war drum that awakens the slumbering."

"I am the storm that sweeps away sins, the dawn that breaks the day."

"I dedicate my life and honor to the Sharp Blade Force."

"This is true today, and it will be true every day."

Such a magnificent vow.

It nearly ignited the "burning justice" within Aokiji's heart that had been frozen for over a decade.

He clapped vigorously and praised loudly.

"Good! Very energetic!"

Aokiji really liked this oath: "Dark blade, guardian of justice."

He deliberately took out paper and pen from his desk drawer and began to transcribe.

The rustling sound continued to echo in the general's office.

During this interval.

Ian stared at the Clay Fruit in his hand.

Several lines of text that only he could see emerged from the void.

【Name: Clay Fruit】

Star Rating: None

[Description: Paramecia-type Devil Fruit]

[Effect: The user can turn any part of their body into clay, and can also create clay from nothing.]

Note: Devil Fruits symbolize unnatural evolutionary paths, and those who eat them will be cursed by the natural ocean.

[Comment: I'm playing in the mud by the sea]

The specific effects of the Clay Fruit were not unexpected for Ian.

This is indeed a "special Paramecia-type" Devil Fruit.

Just like Charlotte Katakuri's "Mochi Mochi Fruit".

It's not a nature-based system, but it's better than one.

'Now, [Clay-Clay Fruit], lend me your power!'

Ian secretly used the Ring of Magic Control to absorb and seal the supernatural elements contained in the Clay Fruit.

This process happened silently.

A Devil Fruit that was still perfectly intact on the outside lost its extraordinary power.

Through the [System Treasure Chest], Ian can continue to observe the specific information about the current [Clay Fruit].

【Name: Clay-Clay Fruit Without Power】

Star Rating: None

[Description: A bizarre-looking, disgusting-tasting devil fruit]

[Result: Aside from being awful, it's nothing special.]

[Comment: Eat shit!]

'The side effects are gone; it's completely become an empty shell...'

Ian held up the Clay Fruit.

Although he did not eat this special Paramecia-type Devil Fruit.

But at this moment, he could still clearly feel that he had suddenly gained a new kind of power.

It was as if all it took was a single thought from him.

You can create some soft, white clay on the spot...

Why do you speak of "defection" so fluently in Chapter 6?

Just as Ian was carefully sensing this strange and novel supernatural power...

Aokiji finally finished copying the oath.

He looked up and saw that Ian was still holding the Clay Fruit.

"Ian, you eat."

Aokiji's words brought Ian's attention back.

"what?"

Aokiji looked at the somewhat dazed Ian and raised his voice slightly.

"Ian, you eat!"

Ian realized that Aokiji was gesturing for him to eat the now-useless Clay Fruit.

He originally wanted to continue observing whether the Clay Fruit, having lost its power, would undergo any special changes in the future.

But for now, let's eat!
