The gourmet among pirates

In just a few mouthfuls, he threw an orange into his mouth.

After the cold orange flesh entered his mouth, Molin nibbled lightly with the teeth of his upper and lower jaws, and the sweet orange water flowed out from the pulp.

The sweet but not greasy fragrance of orange immediately made Molin's eyes light up.

【This orange is good. 】

After tasting an orange, Maureen said, "This orange tastes good. Grandma, how do you sell it?"

When she heard Molin praise her oranges, the old woman smiled brightly on her wrinkled face.

It seemed that Maureen's recognition of the oranges made the old woman happier than him buying a bunch of oranges back.

The old lady said happily: "These are oranges grown at home. They are not expensive. I will weigh them three kilograms for you for one hundred pele. How many do you want, little brother?"

Maureen nodded.

The price of one hundred Baileys and three pounds is indeed not expensive.

When Mo Lin passed by those fruit shops during the day, the oranges that were not as good as the ones bought by grandma, and they all cost about sixty or seventy pele a pound.

It can be said that the price given by the grandma is extremely affordable.

This kind of actual price made Mo Lin feel a lot better.

He waved his hand and said directly: "You weigh the oranges here and how many kilograms there are. I want them all. By the way, sell me this basket too, so as not to have to pack them up."

After hearing that Mo Lin wanted it all, the old lady was happy at first, but then she quickly shook her head and said:

"Ah! There are so many, young man, you can't finish them all by yourself. If you want to eat by yourself, just buy a few kilograms and try them out. It's not good to eat too many oranges at once, you'll get angry!"

This!

Looking at the old lady who persuaded her to buy less oranges, Mo Lin was stunned for a while.

These days, are there any bosses who advise others to buy less?

He hadn't seen this kind of boss in his previous life.

Just because of these words, Mo Lin felt that she had to round up these oranges today.

He smiled and said: "Hahaha, don't worry, grandma. There are many people in my family. With so many oranges, if everyone gets one share, we won't get many."

"Are there many people?" After hearing this, the old lady breathed a sigh of relief and no longer struggled.

She picked up the scale beam, weighed it skillfully and said: "This basket of oranges is sixty-eight pounds in total. If you buy more, I will count it as sixty-six pounds. Grandma will charge you a total of 2200 beli. As for the basket, I’ll give it to you, don’t you think so.”

"Hahaha, oranges cost 2200 beli? No problem, but there is no need to give away the basket. Buying two baskets will cost several hundred beli. Here, I'll give you the money. You don't have to change it."

Maureen took out three 1,000-beli bills from his pocket and stuffed them directly into the old woman's hand.

Then he picked up the orange from the ground and walked quickly towards the navy branch.

The old woman looked at the three thousand Baileys stuffed into her hands and said "Ah", then she led her granddaughter and ran behind Mo Lin, shouting:

"Young man, you gave me too much. The basket doesn't cost that much. Don't walk so fast yet. Grandma will give you change."

Chapter 16 Skills

Mo Lin, who was not far away, did not look back.

He turned his back to them and said loudly: "No need."

After saying that, Mo Lin quickened his pace and quickly disappeared into the night.

After all, the old woman is old, and with her granddaughter, she can't keep up with the young and strong Mo Lin.

After a while, she could no longer see Molin's back.

After stopping, the old lady panted, holding the money in her hand, and gasped:

"Hoo ho, ho, I met a good person today. With these three thousand beli, I can raise all the money to buy medicine for the old man. Now the old man doesn't have to suffer so much when it rains."

······

After leaving Kama Town, Morin ate sweet and delicious oranges while thinking about what he should add the twelve nutrients he harvested today.

It has been more than a month since he traveled through time. Of course, Molin has not been idle during this more than a month.

In addition to being busy accepting a patrol ship, he also learned a lot of things.

For example, some simple skills in firearm design, some routines and practical methods for sword slashing.

However, these things had not formed skills before, which led Mo Lin to think that these things could not form skills, so he paid less attention to it.

But after Molin used a firearm to kill the criminal who had a bounty of three million Baileys on his head, everything changed.

Not to mention anything else, there is one more skill in his skills column alone.

At this time, Molin's property panel has changed to:

[Name: Maureen]

【Age: 18】

[Bloodline: Ordinary Human]

[Title: None]

【Achievement: None】

[Strength: 2.1, Physique: 3.0, Agility: 2.0, Spirit: 1.5, Perception: 1.6] (Note: The average attribute of adult males in this world is 1)

[Status: Healthy]

[Talent: Endless Stomach I]

[Skills: Cooking (Intermediate) +, Gunpowder Weapons·Light Weapons (Basic) +]

【Nutrition: 12】

[Gunpowder Weapons·Light Type Weapons (Basic)]: You know how to use flintlocks, pistols, rifles and other light gunpowder weapons, but you are not a sharpshooter. Don’t expect the gun in your hand to do anything incredible, or even You can't even guarantee its accuracy.

[With 10 points of nutrients, do you want to upgrade gunpowder weapons and light weapons (basic)? 】

Ten points of nutrients can increase the level of [Gunpowder Weapons·Light Weapons]?

To be honest, Mo Lin was a little hesitant at this time.

If you increase the attributes by 10 points of nutrients, you may increase the attributes by a whole point. At this stage, this kind of improvement is extremely terrifying for the increase in Molin's strength.

But the improvement of gunpowder weapons and light weapons skills is also very tempting.

After hesitating for a while, Molin finally chose to upgrade [Gunpowder Weapons·Light Weapons]

Without him, at this stage, the power of firearms is undoubtedly more powerful.

In addition, close combat is obviously more dangerous.

Mo Lin, who has no fighting experience or skills, said.

Before he has a certain ability to protect himself, he doesn't want to fight hand-to-hand with others.

This is definitely not cowardice, this is called utilizing strengths and avoiding weaknesses.

After Molin made his choice, the word "Basic" in the panel [Gunpowder Weapon·Light Model Weapon (Basic)] blurred for a while and turned into the word "Enterprise".

At the same time, a large amount of knowledge quickly appeared in Molin's mind, and was quickly absorbed and mastered by him.

This knowledge includes techniques for aiming and shooting, as well as an understanding of various light flame weapons.

Molin's body and brain seemed to be extremely familiar with these extra memories, as if they were acquired by Molin himself after many hardships.

Incomparable harmony and harmony.

[Gunpowder Weapons·Light Type Weapons (Introduction)]: Not only do you know how to better use light gunpowder weapons such as flintlocks, pistols, and rifles, but you also have an in-depth understanding of their characteristics. Effect: Perception +0.2.

·······

[Gunpowder Weapons·Light Type Weapons] After being upgraded from basic to entry-level, it not only allowed Morin to master the skills more deeply, but also improved his perception attributes.

Although the perception of 0.2 is not much, it can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.

More importantly, this incident taught him that as long as he has enough "nutrients", he can quickly improve his various skills.

As long as there are enough "delicious" things!

Neptune meat, old lobster.

These two things are what Molin now knows and can definitely increase his own "nutrients".

"I still have more than 200,000 Baileys on hand. This money is enough for me to eat another half-large lobster. It's a pity that the boss doesn't know how to do business. Such a big lobster has to be sold on a life-or-death basis, and not every day. It’s all in stock, this is too much.”

"Well, come back tomorrow to see if the boss has received the goods."

While eating oranges, Morin was distractedly thinking about the future. Before he knew it, he had returned to the vicinity of the 13th Branch of the East China Sea Navy.

On the nearly three-meter-high wall outside the base, the six conspicuous characters "Navy Branch 13" are painted.

The six large characters painted with fluorescent special paint are very conspicuous even at night.

It is these big characters that make the residents of Kama Town not far away feel safe.

After giving each of the four brothers on duty at the base a few oranges as a midnight snack, Molin easily gained the favor of the four of them.

Then he swaggered into the base.

Because it was almost late at night, except for the lights in the dormitory building, the rest of the base was completely dark.

After returning to the dormitory building in the dark, Mo Lin quickly returned to his dormitory in the building.

Thanks to becoming Cao Zhang, Mo Lin now had a separate single-room dormitory with a bathroom.

Finally, I no longer have to squeeze into the eight-person or six-person dormitories like before.

Although that kind of dormitory is lively, there is no privacy at all.

After returning to the dormitory, Mo Lin took a comfortable cold shower first. As for the hot shower, unless she boiled the water herself, she didn't want to think about it.

But fortunately, with a three-point fitness level, it was no problem for Molin to take a cold shower in this cool autumn.

He took a towel and wiped his wet hair dry.

Maureen picked up the oranges in the basket again and ate them.

With the gift of an endless stomach, Molin eats a lot and gets hungry quickly.

Maureen, who had just eaten, was not hungry, but she still wanted to eat some sweets as her bedtime dessert.

After eating a dozen sweet fruits in one go, when Maureen picked up an orange again, she suddenly discovered...

Chapter 17 Devil Fruit among Oranges

When Mo Lin picked up an orange again, he suddenly realized that something was wrong in his hand.

The orange peel that should have been smooth seems to have turned into a pattern composed of various lines.

Although it also feels cold to the touch, Mo Lin, who has eaten oranges for more than ten years, can guarantee with his own memory that the texture of this skin is definitely not that of orange peel.

Ok?

strange?

Is there something weird mixed in my oranges?

He brought the orange that "didn't feel right" to his eyes and Molin's eyes widened.

what's the situation.

What appeared in front of Mo Lin was an orange shape, which looked very similar to the "ugly" orange that Mo Lin had seen in his previous life.

But there are circles of orange-yellow fruit with mysterious patterns on it.

If an inexperienced person doesn't look carefully, he or she will think it's just a crippled orange.

But as a time traveler, how could Molin not know what the thing in his hand was.

Devil Fruit.

Mo Lin can guarantee that what he has in his hand is definitely a devil fruit that can acquire mysterious power after eating it.

Molin didn't even need to distinguish this.

Just from the appearance of this special fruit, Molin's body instinct quickly conveyed the desire to eat.
