Chapter 3: Devil Fruit Powers are very scary

"You don't know how terrible the devil fruit ability is! Especially the animal fruit ability person is, remember the animal fruit ability person named Kaido that I told you? Even if he jumps directly from a height of tens of thousands of meters, he will not be injured." Kong Ming replied with a serious face, "I have very good reason to suspect that Batal was deliberately pretending to be anesthesia and fainting, and planned to kill us when we were careless about him."

Just as Kong Ming explained to Yarlita, it can be seen from the image that the fifth team had arrived at the observation room next to the trap and threw four lightning grenades into the trap through the observation port. When the lightning grenade fell on the pirates who were anesthetized at the bottom of the trap, with the sound of dripping, the four grenades exploded almost at the same time, and a blue arc flashed rapidly on the pirates.

"I discovered that Batal is indeed pretending." Kong Ming pointed to Batal's hand in the image, "You see, although the expression on his face is very similar, his hand still betrayed him. Look where his hand trembles slightly, it is obviously accumulating energy, and he will attack after we appear.

Yarrita looked at Batal who was thrusting at the bottom of the trap, and always felt that something seemed wrong.

"Continue, don't stop!" Kong Ming put his glasses on and a cold light flashed out, "Four pieces in five seconds, throw a base first!"

"There are too many bases!" Yarlita said hesitantly, "Boss, that's 120! Even if it is a lightning grenade specially used to capture the enemy alive, if so many are smashed, those pirates will be electrocuted."

"There is no way, for the sake of foolproof, some sacrifices are necessary!" Kong Ming answered firmly, "But what you said makes sense, then for safety reasons, first put forth forty lightning grenades, then hook the rest of the pirates, and then throw the remaining eighty!"

...

‘Bang!’

...

‘Bang!’ Four more lightning grenades landed on the ground, exploding a flash of lightning.

"Look, what a tenacious person and what a strong fighting spirit!" Kong Ming's face showed admiration, "From the beginning to the end, never beg for mercy, never give up, if there is a glimmer of hope, you will fight to the end. I have been blowing up so many rounds, and he can still pretend. Just endure this. I would like to call you Bison Batal the strongest."

Yarlita looked at Batal, who had rolled her eyes and was exhausted when she was over with electricity. She finally realized that she thought something was wrong with him.

"Boss, have you discovered something?"

"What's up?"

"The two horns on Batal's head seemed to fall."

...

‘Bang!’

...

"Boss, you see, it really fell down..."

...

"What did you say? The horns on your head are stuck on?" After getting this answer that is a bit distorted, even though he is as steady as Kong Ming, he felt a little nervous. "You are not a good person, why do you have to put horns on your head as a half-orc? What are you trying to do?"

"Actually, it's just to scare people." Batal, wearing handcuffs, shackles, and even carrying a shackle on his shoulders, was almost wrapped in iron chains to make rice dumplings, and now he looked a little honest. "The same is true for these cow hairs on me..."

In fact, this matter is very simple. As a rare smart person among pirates, when Batal learned through some of his own channels that there is another thing called devil fruit in this world, which can allow people who eat it to possess the power of devils. It is very terrible. Most people are scared to death when they hear this devil fruit ability.

And the key is that this thing is very rare. Not to mention ordinary people, even if he is so knowledgeable, he has been living in the East China Sea for so many years, but he has never really seen a devil fruit. So he came up with such a good idea, pretending to be a devil fruit ability.

However, impersonation must be scientific. Natural science is definitely not possible. Superman science is simple, but the problem is that Batal himself has no idea what kind of fruits the Superman science is and how to impersonate it. So Batal thought about it and pretended to be the simplest one. So he found two horns and put them on his head, and then put some ox hair on his body.

OK! A devil fruit, a capable person in the form of Niu Niu, appeared like this.

Since adding this disguise, Batal found that many things he encountered immediately became simple. When robbery, as long as he showed his horns, he shouted that I was a devil fruit capable person, and the opponent who had the ability to resist was immediately defeated. When meeting other pirates, as long as he lit up the horns, the opponent immediately bowed and bowed, "Hello, Boss Batal!"

"It's not just these!" Batal raised his chest and said proudly, "Since the news that I am the Demon Fruit abilities spread, my bounty immediately increased from 4 million Baileys to 10 million Baileys, and I have also become a big pirate!"

"You must be steady, but your mentality cannot collapse. You must be steady. Zhuge only has steady life."

After a few minutes of psychological counseling, Kong Ming successfully calmed himself down again. To tell the truth, Kong Ming felt that he could not understand these pirates' worship of the amount of rewards when he was watching anime or the years after traveling to this world.

No matter how much you make, the amount of reward cannot be turned into a bank deposit. To be precise, the increase in that thing can only prove that your head is becoming more and more valuable. Money is a omnipotent thing, whether on earth or here. The increase in your reward actually means that in the eyes of others, such as your crew, it is equivalent to watching your shoulders walking around with a lot of money on your shoulders.

As a pirate captain, after the reward is increased, shouldn't you think of the first thing you think of is that if one day a mad crew member killed you in the middle of the night and brought your head ashore, wouldn't he become a rich man?

Thinking of this, it seems that the amount of the reward seems to be no different from the bank deposit? It’s just that one is that you take the passbook to withdraw money by yourself, and the other is that others can only withdraw money by taking the passbook on your shoulders, and it’s a fixed deposit, and you will definitely not be able to withdraw it if you don’t die.

No, wait, why did I want to catch him?

Kong Ming, who was successfully led onto the evil path by Batal's confession, finally thought of his own business. I was to study the difference between the devil fruit ability and ordinary people. I wanted to use magic research to analyze the transformation process of the devil fruit on the human body. However, the fake and shoddy product in front of me was completely helping my subject. So, it took me several months to finally get this experimental mouse... has it turned into a field mouse?

I'm so angry! I really want to kill him and get the reward!

But the navy offered a reward of Batal, a niu fruit abilities, not the one in front of him who had a horn on his head! Even if he killed him, he would probably not be able to get a penny to the navy with his head. The navy can definitely tell the difference between a abilities and an ordinary person.

The more I think about it, the more angry I get. What should I do if I can’t get the reward?

Forget it, let's deal with it as an old way! Kong Ming decided to let it go quietly with such embarrassing things. The pirates who were caught were dead, but still alive but seriously injured, and the remaining ones who did not affect the appearance of the city were directly pulled to Frostmoon Village to grow herbs. All the goods like Batal were taken to the mine to mine, and the rest found some lively, but the strength was average to send them to their own laboratory to be experimental mice.

Yes, that's it! Kong Ming felt that he could not think about it anymore. He was afraid that if he continued to think about it, he could not help but send Batal for a long time. Although this guy was the kind of thing that burned, killed and looted, and it would not be unfair to die, but after all, this guy had no grudges with him in the past and now he had no grudges. The reason why he came to rob him was that he fished him specifically. If he killed him like this...

My own black mine is short of a good labor!

Kong Ming took off his glasses, rubbed his eyebrows with his hands, stood up and walked to the corner of the wall on one side to wash his hands with an almost pious attitude, then walked back and sat down, opened the drawer, took out a box of incense pieces and an exquisite small incense burner, lit the incense burner with skillful movements, placed the incense burner on his right hand, relaxed his body, leaned himself on the sofa in a comfortable posture, empty his mind, and let his attention gradually concentrate on the depths of his mind and attached to a flashing spot of light.

The next moment, Kong Ming seemed to have traveled through time and space, and appeared in front of an ancient and dilapidated stone tower. The shape of the stone tower was somewhat similar to that of the mage tower he built himself, but it was older, taller, and more majestic than the mage tower he built himself. The inspiration of countless magic circles flashed around the stone tower.

At the bottom of the stone tower is a floating island with an area of ​​dozens of square kilometers. There are some sporadic but dilapidated buildings on the floating island. The entire floating island and the stone tower seem to float alone in the endless universe, and countless twisted lights surround the stone tower and the floating island, just like a storm on the sea.

Kong Ming seemed to have been here many times and turned a blind eye to the shocking scenes around him. After appearing here, he walked to the door of the stone tower without hesitation, reached out and pressed it on a stone next to the stone tower gate. With his movements, the originally closed and tight tower gate also opened.

Kong Ming took his hand down and walked in without hesitation.

"Welcome back, Lord Guardian!" The speaker was a long red and black coat, with a Violet Eye badge on the outside of the coat, his hair was combed with an old-fashioned back, and each hair was neatly tidy, with a serious ghost on his face. In the hands of this ghost, he also held a candlestick with three candles lit, emitting a faint light.

"Don't be so polite, Mr. Morros!" Faced with this ghost, Kong Ming did not dare to neglect at all and returned the gift seriously, "I want to go to the library, please send me there."

"Okay, Guardian!" Morros nodded seriously, and with a whoosh, Kong Ming came directly from the door of the stone tower to the library inside the stone tower.

This is an extremely spectacular library. The interior of the hall covering an area of ​​hundreds of square meters is full of huge bookshelves, layer by layer, full of furnishings. In the center of the library, there is a spiraling stone staircase. Countless stone bookshelfs are distributed on the surrounding walls. Even if you raise your head to the point where your hat is about to fall off, you will not be able to see the top of the library.
Chapter completed!
