My name is Sasuke, from being the richest man in Naruto to dominating the world

Chapter 469 The Dark-Dark Fruit is Finally Here
“This time the harvest is huge.”

In the marshal's office, Sengoku poured Sasuke a cup of tea and pushed a plate of senbei in front of him.

Yes, now Sengoku is the Admiral of the Navy, and the former Admiral Kong just stepped down a few days ago and was promoted to the Chief Marshal of the Three Armies of the World Government.

This is natural. After all, the navy has worked hard and made great contributions. Now that the navy is in a state of great progress, young people should take over.

As an old man, it is quite reasonable for Kong to vacate this important position and let the younger Sengoku take over, while he himself will be in charge of the communication between the Navy and the World Government.

"Yes, several younger and more talented people have joined the navy."

"Did you really kill Doflamingo?"

Although he had received the news a long time ago, and the small-scale turmoil that broke out in the North Sea in the past two days proved Doflamingo's death, Sengoku still wanted to confirm it personally. After all, he had Doflamingo's younger brother under his command, and this matter had to be handled properly.

Although Rosinante was hostile to Doflamingo and even secretly joined the navy, he later returned to the Don Quixote family as an undercover agent and secretly provided various intelligence to the navy.

But who can guarantee what he is thinking?
Maybe he just couldn't stand what his brother did.

What if, after learning about Doflamingo's death, he began to hate Sasuke, what then?
"Of course. I gave him a chance, and he was going to use his identity as a former Celestial Dragon to blackmail me. Please, what's the use of such a thing? I don't know how many secrets he has, but in my opinion, no matter how many secrets he has, they are not as many as the Five Elders. Currently, the Navy and the World Government are in a cooperative relationship, and the World Government is not opposed to supporting other worlds, so I don't want to disrupt this cooperation for the time being.

So his threats are unnecessary. I don't want to know those so-called secrets, and he shouldn't tell them. Since he insists on telling them, he is courting death."

Sasuke picked up the teacup and blew on it, saying expressionlessly.

"In fact, you can control him. You have the ability to do so."

"Yes, but this kind of person is not capable of truly submitting to someone or a certain force. Rather than forcibly accepting him and then waiting for the thunderbolt to strike in the future, no matter how big or small the thunderbolt is, it is unnecessary for me, so I might as well just kill him.

I know what you want to say, Rosinante, right? Since he has joined the navy, he must abide by the navy's rules and regulations. If he can't do it, just kick him out.

If he wants to hate me, tell him, it's up to him, if he wants revenge, that's up to him, if he's not afraid of death, he can give it a try, anyway, the most I'll lose is some time."

Sasuke didn't care about Rosinante at all.

Not to mention that in the original work, Rosinante did not show any strong strength. Even if the time and space have changed, what can he do? Can he be stronger than the admirals of the navy? Can he be stronger than the four emperors? Can he be stronger than the five elders?
Stronger than that? What's the point of talking about that?

Even if he could be stronger, so what? Sasuke had already killed two of the Four Emperors with his own hands, so he wouldn't mind killing a few more.

"You……"

Seeing Sasuke's fearless look, Sengoku didn't know what to say and could only smile bitterly and shake his head.

"As for Rosinante, I will go and talk to him in person. But don't worry, based on my understanding of him, he won't become what you said. If he does change... don't worry, I won't let him affect you. When the time comes, I will deal with him personally."

As he said this, a dangerous aura emanated from Zhan Guo.

In fact, don't think that Zhan Guo is merciful just because he always appears to be a wise general and a good guy.

In fact, as the former admiral of the navy, Sengoku has been chasing the Whitebeard Pirates for decades, and in the process he has personally captured and killed countless pirates.

As the saying goes, a merciful person cannot command an army. Since he can become the naval marshal, it is impossible for him to be a truly merciful person.

It's just that his personality is not violent, and in most cases, he is the type who uses reason to overcome impulse, so he seems to be much less dangerous than Sakaski.

When treating Rocinante, he was even very gentle, which was something that someone like Sakaski would never be able to do in his entire life.

But there is a prerequisite here, that is, Rossinante's heart is in the navy. If one day he turns his heart to Doflamingo, or even to pirates, then I'm sorry, Sengoku will definitely let him taste the iron fist of the navy marshal.

At that time, even if he didn't kill Rosinante with one punch, he could still beat him half-crippled and throw him into Impelton. This was something Zhan Guo was fully capable of doing.

"By the way, how's Neji doing lately?"

Sasuke suddenly asked.

"Not bad. This young man was not used to the navy at first, but he has a strong ability to adapt and learn. Now he has completely integrated into the navy."

"Hey, hey, hey, Mr. Zhan Guo, I asked him to come here to be a diplomatic ambassador, not to be a marine, please don't make the mistake!"

"What? How could I be wrong about this? I am training him. He was too lax before. I don't know how ninjas in another world train reserve talents, but in the navy, discipline is the top priority. Now that he is here, I will definitely let him join the training.

But don't worry, I know what his mission is. In addition to daily training, I will also give him various tasks to make him familiar with the operating logic of this world and strengthen his communication skills.

This is what I meant by a strong learning ability. His performance is indeed very good, you can rest assured about this.”

Sengoku explained.

After hearing him say this, Sasuke finally felt relieved.

"That's fine. You are the marshal anyway, and Rosinante is your man..."

Sasuke shrugged and put down the teacup. "That's it. I've brought the people back. It's up to you as the Grand Marshal to decide how to use them. I'm going to Gion with you~"

Sasuke cheered and was about to leave.

"Wait a moment."

However, Zhan Guo suddenly called out to him.

When Sasuke turned back to look at him in confusion, he took out a wooden box from under the desk.

"Here, this is for you."

"What?"

Sasuke asked confused.

Although it was a questioning tone, looking at the size of the box, it was not difficult to guess that there was a devil fruit inside.

It's just a devil fruit, what's the big deal? Why did he call him that? Is it some god-level fruit? But Sasuke had taken the time to look at the devil fruit encyclopedia before. To be honest, at present, there is nothing in the encyclopedia that he particularly likes except the surgery fruit.

He walked to the wooden box with some doubts, stretched out his hand to open it, and when he saw the fruit inside, Sasuke's eyes lit up. It was really bright, because he had activated the pupil technique at the first moment.

"Dark-Dark Fruit..."

Sasuke muttered.

He took great pains to find this fruit.

A very magical feature of devil fruits is that they will actively seek out a host that is suitable for them.

Because every devil fruit can be regarded as a living devil, and they have self-awareness.

Although this consciousness is very weak, even weaker than that of a kitten or a puppy.

But it can actively choose the owner it wants.

There is also a problem involved here, that is, when a person's desire is strong enough, it can also attract the arrival of related fruits.

For example, when Luffy got the Nika Fruit, Red-Haired Shanks was confused about whether he should eat it. His confusion was actually the Nika Fruit influencing his will. Because the Nika Fruit had already determined that Shanks was not its owner, it did not want to be eaten.

So it is really hard to say whether the consciousness of the fruit is strong or weak. If it is strong, it has almost no self-thinking, and the so-called selection of the master is mostly instinctive. If it is weak, it can even affect the Pirate Emperor like Shanks.

At the same time, the Nika Fruit can evade the World Government's pursuit. Even if the World Government has spent hundreds of years, it still cannot find any trace of the Nika Fruit.

Therefore, fruits and people are actually a two-way choice.

The first thing is that the fruit must recognize the person, and the person must have a strong enough desire.

Of course, there is a prerequisite here, that is, the fruit itself must be ownerless, not to mention the one with an owner.

If the fruit itself has been discovered, then its will can only influence someone not to eat it. It is impossible to escape, because the fruit is not a living thing that can move freely.

If these prerequisites are applied to the Dark-Dark Fruit.

Sasuke couldn't find the other person because his desire was not strong enough.

Of course he longed to get this fruit, but to him, this fruit was the kind that was dispensable. Having it would be best, but not having it would not lead to a significant drop in his strength or a lack of an important piece of the puzzle.

After all, Sasuke just wants to use the characteristics of the black hole of the Dark-Dark Fruit to study the power of space and the universe to a greater extent. He does not urgently need other characteristics of the fruit itself, such as absorbing the power of other devil fruits or making devil fruits invalid.

Blackbeard made the same mistake in this regard.

His fundamental purpose of wanting to obtain the Dark-Dark Fruit is to gain sufficient power, because the Dark-Dark Fruit can restrain all other fruits and can seize the power of the fruit that the host dies but does not have time to escape. This is a great help to Blackbeard's ambition to dominate the world.

However, the Dark-Dark Fruit does not represent world domination. As an elemental fruit, it represents the purest darkness, black holes, and endless gravity. Only when the wish matches these elements can the Dark-Dark Fruit be attracted.

The darkness here does not refer to the dark side of character, but the desire to become the embodiment of darkness.

The so-called devil fruit is actually the possibility of "human evolution" that people pursue.

Who wishes to be darkness, a black hole, or to have infinite gravity?
No.

Therefore, for many years, the dark-dark fruit has remained in the wild.

Blackbeard had a strong desire but it was not the right one, so he failed to attract the Dark-Dark Fruit. In the end, he was able to obtain the fruit only by chance and after being undercover in the Whitebeard Pirates for many years.

Now the navy has searched with all their might, and it took so long to find the Dark-Dark Fruit, which shows how good this guy is at hiding.

“Where was this fruit found?”

Sasuke admired it for a moment, then looked up and asked.

"In an unknown town, someone died because of this fruit. After the nearby navy got the news, they chased the murderer all the way and finally killed him in the sea. Then the fruit was sent to the headquarters. I know you have always wanted this fruit, so I did not inform the World Government, but intercepted it directly."

Sengoku explained.

As far as Sasuke knows, Blackbeard obtained the Dark-Dark Fruit after Whitebeard's battle with an unknown pirate group, and Thatch, the then captain of the Fourth Division, took it as a trophy.

So if nothing unexpected happened, this fruit should have been snatched from the town this time, then drifted to the sea, and was only taken by Blackbeard many years later.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhan Guo. This fruit is very important to me."

Sasuke thanked him sincerely.

If we expect him to find it on his own, it would be really difficult. He now has a deep understanding of the world and can transform the world through his own power to a certain extent.

To put it simply, he has touched the rules of the origin of the world. If he reaches the extreme, he can become the devil of this world, creating the world with one thought and destroying it with another.

However, even at this point, he still couldn't lock the Devil Fruit through the power of rules. As the most unique ability in this world, the Devil Fruit was undoubtedly extremely special.

Therefore, for Sasuke, every search for fruit is a process of opening a blind box, and he has no way of knowing in advance what fruit he is going to find.

So he had to borrow the power of the navy, and the navy did not disappoint him.

"As long as it's useful, eat it to avoid more trouble at night."

Zhan Guo nodded and smiled with satisfaction.

Sasuke reached out and took the fruit, swallowing it in one gulp without even thinking.

The next second, a magical power appeared in his body and grew rapidly.

Sasuke had experienced this feeling many times before and was very familiar with it, so he didn't need to do anything special. He just closed his eyes and stood there for a few seconds.

After a moment, Sasuke raised his palm, a cloud of black smoke filled his palm, then quickly spun and turned into a small black vortex.

Everything in the room began to tremble at this moment. Some lighter objects, such as paper, flew into the air completely out of control and flew towards Sasuke's palm.
