People are full of pirates

Chapter 266 The Fate of Shiliu of the Rain

To eat, or not to eat?

This is indeed a problem.

Nuo Xia also got a few devil fruits before, but whether it was the rust fruit or the animal fruits captured by Du Galileo later, they didn't like it very much.

But the fluttering fruit of the Golden Lion is quite different.

Not to mention anything else, being able to get rid of gravity and fly in the sky at will, this alone is quite tempting to him.

Flying is always a dream engraved in human genes.

only……

"The curse of the devil fruit is not a joke."

Nuo Xia stared at the spiral-shaped fruit in front of her eyes, and the excitement at the beginning gradually dissipated, and gradually returned to her usual rational calm.

"After eating the fruit, it means that the sea and sea tower stone will become my nemesis from now on..."

He is now considered a strong player in the world's first echelon.

The main source of combat power is that monster-like physical body and superb swordsmanship that can control the profound meaning of wind.

Therefore, even if the Piao Piao Fruit can be developed to a level close to that of the Golden Lion, the bonus to his combat power is actually not much, but if he eats it, he will directly have two more weaknesses.

From then on, his powerful naval combat ability of being able to breathe and swim freely in the deep sea, just like the murlocs, can take advantage of the sea surface will be greatly reduced.

It's like Superman, who was originally invincible with his physical body, just added a deadly cover of kryptonite.

If he came across the Piao Piao fruit just after traveling to the Pirate World, he would definitely eat it without hesitation.

but now……

But it's not worth it.

"never mind."

Nuo Xia is not a person who likes to worry about gains and losses and stick to the horns of the horns. In just a dozen seconds, he made a decision and put the Piao Piao fruit back in the backpack.

Then looking in the direction of home, his eyes flickered slightly.

Although he has no interest in eating Piao Piao fruit, the preciousness of this fruit is still undoubted, and it is a waste to keep it in the backpack.

People are always selfish.

This fruit was the spoils of Nuo Xia's painstaking efforts to defeat the Golden Lion, and it took several months to hatch, so he would definitely not do it if he just handed it in.

So Nuo Xia's new plan at this moment is to give it to the family around him.

Father and mother are naturally out of consideration, the two elders are both retired, and as early as the first time he returned to East China Sea to visit relatives, he had shown little interest in Devil Fruits.

That's true, I have no interest at all, unlike Mouqi.

As for the three wives and adults.

Bermel is already a rusty fruit capable user, and Shia also ate the imitation fruit two years ago, so naturally she passed directly.

The only thing left is the little rabbit.

"I just don't know if the Brigadier General wants to eat..."

Nuo Xia pinched her chin and muttered to herself, "If she wants, this fruit is quite suitable for her."

No matter how good a devil fruit is, it must be displayed in the hands of the strong, otherwise it will be a waste like an explosive fruit eaten by a booger man.

And with Little Rabbit's strength and potential, Piao Piao Guo is in her hands, so naturally she won't be buried.

It can even complement each other, making Taotu's strength increase faster than in the original timeline.

Perhaps at the time of the top war, the Navy Headquarters will be able to have another real general-level combat power.

It wasn't until two years after the top, that Momotu Chapo was still a step behind the general in strength, forcing the Navy Headquarters to recruit troops from all over the world and use two outsiders like Fujitora and Green Bull.

"Well, that's it."

Nuo Xia clapped her hands with her left fist and hurried back home. After washing briefly, she went straight to Taotu's office.

Since his resignation at the end of last year and his resignation as the base chief of the first branch of Xihai, Tao Tu has been stationed in the headquarters like Nuo Xia, but his rank is still major general.

The strength is enough, the military exploits are enough, but the qualifications are a threshold that cannot be crossed. According to the meaning revealed above, Taotu will have to wait at least a year or two before being promoted to the intermediate level.

"But brigadier general, you have been promoted to major general for almost two years, right? Why is the qualifications not enough? I was promoted to major general more than half a year later than you. Isn't this also a lieutenant general?"

At that time, Nuo Xia was puzzled, why did she fight for Taotu in this way.

What a double standard, it's not fair at all.

As a result, after finishing speaking, he was beaten up by the little rabbit angrily——

Damn, Versailles, right?Your perverted resume and military exploits are limited by age and seniority?

Not to mention that he was promoted after one year as a major general, if he hadn't graduated early, it wouldn't be uncommon for him to be a lieutenant general as soon as he was conferred?

—————
ten minutes later.

In Taotu's office.

"Piao Piao fruit?"

Sure enough, when Nuo Xia took out this fruit, even the calm-tempered Taotu was taken aback, her beautiful eyes were full of surprise:
"Isn't this the fruit of the golden lion? Why is it in your hands?"

Nuo Xia shrugged and answered the general experience truthfully.

It was like revealing the secret of the life card to Bermer.

For Nuo Xia, apart from the existence of the system, which he intends to bring to the coffin board, no one will disclose it.

For the rest, there is no need to hide anything from the closest people.

"This sword of yours can deprive the defeated person of the fruit's ability and re-hatch the devil fruit?"

It took Taotu a long time to barely digest this impactful information. After a while of being absent-minded, she frowned slightly and said thoughtfully, "In this way, wouldn't the ability users in the deep sea prison be... ..."

"There is no need to keep it in custody? Instead, it can become a stable source of fruit for the Navy?"

Nuo Xia couldn't help but put her arms around her neck, and kissed her tender cheek, "As expected of a brigadier general! I wanted to go with her at the beginning."

Taotu pushed away his right hand that was climbing down, and gave him an annoyed look.

"But it's not that simple."

Nuo Xia sat down on the sofa across from her desk with a smile, and crossed her legs, "The only ones I can deprive of the devil fruit are the ability users who have been defeated by me, and each time this ability is activated, there must be an interval of at least three months." months."

Even if he stuck the cooling CD and went to the deep sea prison to pick up the goods, it was only four a year, but how many capable people were imprisoned there?

It's a drop in the bucket, and the ability users who should pass still have to pass.

"Of course, the most important thing is that I don't want the outside world to know that I have this ability."

Nuo Xia poured herself a cup of tea, pointed to the ceiling, "Including the people above."

"why?"

Tao Tu frowned slightly, "General Warring States, Marshal He Kong, are bright and open people, even if they know, they won't miss you..."

"Of course they won't, but those who go further up...don't know."

Nuo Xia shrugged her shoulders, her tone very meaningful.

In fact, what he is most worried about is the Immortal Im, whose dragon can't see its head and tail, but Momotu understands it as Wu Laoxing and other high-level world government officials.

But all the same, she could understand Nuo Xia's state of mind all of a sudden.

This kind of weird ability that can shake the world order and break through the common sense of ordinary people is indeed better not to spread it for the time being.

Everyone is innocent and guilty, maybe the officials of the world government will not go to anger Nuo Xia to ask for the sword, but there is no guarantee that the group of crazy Tianlong people will not have any covetous heart.

"Give me a few days to think about it."

Taotu pondered for a moment, still hesitating, "I'm not sure now, whether I should eat this fruit..."

Obviously.

Considering the weakness and drawbacks of Devil Fruit, Momotu, who specializes in kendo, also has similar concerns as Nuo Xia.

"Well, as you like."

Nuo Xia shrugged indifferently, and didn't bother to put Piao Piao Guo back in his backpack. He drank his tea, his eyes turned, and fell on the mountain of letter paper on the coffee table:
"Why are there so many replies to wedding invitations?"

"more or less."

Tao Tutu was still staring at the Piao Piao Guo in a daze. Hearing this, he felt a little headache, rubbed his eyebrows and said:
"Not only the replies to me, but also the letters to you, and that girl Shiya, are all here. The postman knew to save trouble, and sent them all to my office... I haven't had time to open them yet, get ready. Take it home tonight and talk about it..."

"I don't know how many people can come."

Nuo Xia smiled, and just happened to be idle, so she opened it casually and started to look at it.

His wedding will be held a month later, and before that, it is natural to distribute invitations widely, inviting relatives and friends from all parties to attend.

However, due to the special nature of the naval profession, it is basically no problem for those who are stationed in the headquarters to take time off to participate, but it is a bit difficult for those scattered in other branches.

and so.

It is said to be an invitation card, but it is actually more like a notification letter.

And among these replies, those who apologized and stated that they could not be present in person, but would send sincere blessings at the end of the letter, also accounted for the vast majority.

"Well, this letter is from Polusalino. The old guy really can't come, but what does it mean to say that he is tired from work? There are so many suitable reasons, why can't I change it?"

"Sakaski also wrote back, tsk, I can't think of a guy who is usually so serious to write greetings with so many tricks..."

"Kuzan said he could come, um, no surprise, this guy has been staying in the G1 branch for almost two months, but he just happens to be transferred back to the headquarters..."

Taotu had already put away Piao Piao Guo, and continued to flip through the official documents behind the desk.

Listening to this guy sitting in front of the sofa with his legs up and muttering, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Time flows.

At the beginning, the little recruit who was borrowed from the unknown had already become a dazzling big shot in the headquarters in a blink of an eye.

And after two years, I and he are finally going to step into the sacred palace of marriage...

suddenly.

The voice of Sui Sui Nian was interrupted, and the atmosphere suddenly fell silent. Tao Tu raised his head subconsciously, but saw Nuo Xia holding a letter he had just opened. The more he looked down, the more ugly his face became.

"what happened?"

Nuo Xia didn't reply right away, but waited until the end of the reply letter before passing the letter in silence, frowning at the same time, and paced back and forth in front of the window.

The letter was sent from the G6 branch.

It was supposed to be a reply letter written by Shiliu himself, but this letter was signed by a female major general named Aisha.

This is an old man in his sixties. He once served as the captain of his ship when he was on an internship in Shiliu. There are photos.

In the letter, the old man described Shiliu's recent experience in detail.

About two months ago, when Nuo Xia had just defeated the Golden Lion, Xiliu was successfully promoted from lieutenant colonel to colonel because of his outstanding military exploits. Good news for marriage.

This should have been a double blessing.

But half a month later, what Xiliu was waiting for was not his fiancée who was on the way back, but an unacceptable bad news.

Her fiancée, the hometown of the medical soldier girl she met during her internship, was slaughtered by a pirate group named Black Star.

When the navy arrived in an emergency, they only saw a piece of ruins that had been burned by the fire and turned into white ground.

Such a huge blow caused Xiliu to be dazzled by the rage. Without even asking his superiors for instructions, he grabbed a speedboat at the pier by himself, went out to sea alone, and searched for traces of the Black Star Pirates.

As a result, half a month later, no one was found, but I saw the fate of these pirates in the newspaper news.

It is said that another major general of the G2 branch has already defeated him, and escorted the captain Black Star, as well as the important cadres under him, to the city of advancement.

For ordinary people, this is considered revenge, but how could Xiliu be reconciled.

Immediately, he returned to the G6 branch, obediently admitted his mistakes and accepted the criticism and punishment. After the superior's anger dissipated, he offered to escort the nearest batch of prisoners from the G6 branch to Jinjin City, so as to atone for his crimes.

The superior thought he had stepped out of the shadows, so he readily agreed.

But who would have expected.

As soon as Xiliu arrived in Jinjin City, taking advantage of the gap between the handover of work between the two sides, he secretly knocked out the jailer, sneaked into the third basement floor, and killed all the criminals from the Black Star Pirates who were imprisoned here.

Such a huge movement shocked the entire third floor of the basement. During the fight, some prisons were destroyed. Those criminals who wanted to escape while taking advantage of the chaos, Shiliu, who was red-eyed after being killed, were also chopped in half on the spot.

Shiliu, who was in a state of rage, displayed his strength far beyond the ordinary, even the jailor beasts could not compete, and the assembled jailors also had nothing to do with him, but many people were affected and injured.

In the end, the riot lasted for more than ten minutes, and it was not until Magellan, who was the deputy director, arrived, that the suppression was finally brought under control.

　Let me tell you in advance, Xiliu doesn’t have a knife here, so it will be a happy ending~
