One Piece I want to go home

320 Chapter 317 - North End Empty Island
317-Northern Empty Island
"That's right, a mutated devil fruit!" Maxwell smiled a little proudly, "The ring fruit is a mutant, absorbing stamina. As long as you make a move, the ring will absorb all your strength."

According to Maxwell, Marco knew a little bit.

To survive in this environment, strength is the most important thing, but there is another thing that is just as important as strength.

That is information.

There are currently three types of research on devil fruit.

The most uproarious thing is the SMILE used by Kaido, which is an artificial devil fruit, and the source is the underground intermediary JOKER.

However, the side effects of that thing are too great, and only demons and people who want to be demons will use that kind of thing.

The second, eating devil fruits by inanimate objects, is a technology currently being developed by the Navy.

It is said that the technology is relatively mature, but the cost is too high to be popularized.

Even the worst devil fruit can be bought for a price of [-] million Berry.

Not to mention the known ones.

In the end, it is to mutate the devil fruit... It is specifically called [adding special effects to the devil fruit].

But this information is hidden deeper than the above two, and even he doesn't know much.

Marco thought for a while and said, "I remember that this thing is still in the experimental stage, and the side effects are huge."

I don't know the details, but there is no harm in exaggerating the facts.

"Impossible! The person who sold it to me has already said that this is a finished product!"

Maxwell retorted a little excitedly, and he seemed really timid.

Believe it or not, just doubt him and he will succeed.

"Completed product? Impossible. I got the news before that it was still in the experimental stage. Dad wanted to buy a few to play with, but was rejected. He said he dared not take the risk of offending Dad."

Marco's tone was relaxed.

Maxwell was silent for a few seconds, his eyes seemed to be recalling something, suspicious of the other party.

Then shook his head.

"Impossible, the other party is JOKER, not to mention that I lent the whole kingdom to them..."

"Eh? It turned out to be JOKER. It is indeed possible." Marco said.

The previous SMILE was provided by him.

"Are you lying to me?" Maxwell suddenly realized.

He was confused by the three words [White Beard] shining on the top of Marco's head.

"The response is pretty fast."

"You won't be proud for long, as long as the ring is still on your body, then..."

While speaking, Marco's legs were already on fire.

The ring was burned instantly.

But Marco's pants were left intact.

"What did you say?"

"I……"

"Tell me, where is Missy?"

"She's really not here."

Marco sighed, turned around, and set off flames all over the sky, lighting up the night.
-
The Costa in the clouds.

Murphy hummed a little tune and soaked in the bathtub.

The dense and soft bubbles have already wrapped her whole body.

"This cloud bath salt is really good..."

She let out a sigh of relief.

It feels like being in a cloud.

"You two! Just ahead, I see an island!"

Cavendish's voice came from the radio set above.

In order to be able to ensure that everyone is notified, broadcasting is installed very intensively.

"islands?"

Murphy was surprised.

They are obviously out of the range of the empty island, how could there be an island?
Mo Fei briefly washed the foam off his body, then rushed out wrapped in a bathrobe.

When she got to the deck, she froze for a moment.

Uh……

Luo had come to the deck a few steps ahead of her.

However, he was also wearing a bathrobe.

It seems that now is the uniform bath time.

Cavendish was slightly embarrassed, "Did I bother you?"

"What are you talking about?" Murphy said, "It happened to be a bath time. We are brother and sister."

This sentence came out of his mouth, and when Murphy wanted to regret it, it was already too late.

"Eh? Brothers and sisters..."

Cavendish looked at someone with a little pity.

And Murphy didn't pay attention at all because he regretted what he said.

"Where is the island?" Luo asked without changing his face.

"It's a bit far away now. Go to the observation deck and use a telescope to barely see an outline." Cavendish said.
-
North to the empty island, the center of the village.

"This idiot."

A girl with twin ponytails came out of the village aggrieved.

Come to the periphery, a hillside where the moon can be seen at any time.

Also known as Moon Slope.

Hurley wiped her tears and gagged.

She quarreled with Hiiragi Joe, and the two quarreled non-stop because of the Kamifune matter.

She just said that she would wait until the end of this year before leaving the island.It's not that I can't leave!

What the hell is this guy worrying about?
not to mention……

After this year, she will be 16 years old.

It's time to get married.

Sister Zhishaluo has been avoiding talking about it all the time, so she wants to take this opportunity to talk to Hiiragi...

"Fool! Pig head! Big idiot!"

She threw stones angrily.

puff--

Suddenly the sound of the stone falling to the ground changed, as if it had hit someone's body.

She looked up, and saw a figure standing in the forest, whose face could not be seen clearly.

Hurley hurriedly stood up, "I'm sorry! I just lost it, I'm so sorry!"

"It's ok."

The other party came out of the forest.

Hurley had just seen the other person's face clearly.

"Hiragi Joe!" she shouted, gagged, with a cute and puffy look, "Even if I came to apologize, I won't forgive you!"

"Is that so... I'm sorry, it was my fault. To make up for it, I'm going to prepare some gifts."

"Gift?" Hurley was a little curious, "Hmph, if it's a casually prepared gift, I'll be even angrier. When the time comes, I'll show you!"

Hiiragi Qiao smiled slightly, "Don't worry, this is an unexpected and reasonable gift, you will definitely like it."

Having said that, Hurley became even more curious.

"What the hell is it? I'm ready."

She closed her eyes consciously.

"The gift is relatively big, so it's not here." Hiiragi Qiao said, "Come with me."

"What are you doing, mysterious."

Hurley was dissatisfied with her mouth, but her body followed the other party honestly.

After the two walked in the forest for 5 minutes.

Hurley asked excitedly, "Isn't it here yet?"

"There's still some distance."

"What is the gift? Stupid pig, tell me quickly."

"Tell you in advance, it will spoil the surprise."
-
15 minutes.

They moved into the depths of the forest, and the surrounding area became more and more desolate.

The excitement in Hurley's heart has disappeared a little, replaced by fear.

She drew closer to Hiiragi Joe, as if hiding behind him.

"Why don't we go back first. Come back tomorrow."

"Gifts exist only at night."

"Yes... is it?"
-
After half an hour.

Hurley sat on the ground angrily.

"Stupid pig! If you don't tell me what the gift is, I won't go."

Hiiragi Qiao straightened her body, turned her head, and smiled slightly.

With a warm smile, it is completely different from Hiiragi Joe in the past.

"It has arrived."

"What? Where is it?" Hurley was attracted by the gift, completely ignoring Hiiragi Joe's strangeness.

"Oh, what a silly girl."
