My friends are all pirates

As the wind speed continued to increase, the crew of the mast crew had to climb up the rigging to adjust the sails to prevent the sails from being pulled into pieces. In the process, the Imagination encountered another misfortune. One end slipped suddenly, causing part of the mainsail to fall into the sea, pulling hard on the port side as if a huge anchor had been dropped, sending icy gray water into the deck.

Henry hurriedly ordered the other sails to be loosened, and the Fancy was thrown into the wind, the sails shaking like a flag, the bow facing the tower-like waves, the terrifying amount of water inflow made everyone think that the Fancy would have to confess .

Finally, the crew steadied the sails and turned successfully, facing the roaring hurricane astern, and began to flee.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the Wonder was finally out of the most destructive range of the storm, and the exhausted crew went down to prepare for dinner, but their food was about to be served when a huge wave hit the stern of the ship, shattering the the windows of the poop, everything including people and other things flew forward through the entire ship, and in the end miraculously no one was killed, only two people were seriously injured, but the entire mid-section of the ship was water, and all Clothes, bedding, and supplies were all soaked in the cold sea water.

Fortunately, the bad luck came to an end. The Imagination was still floating on the sea, allowing everyone to survive the night. In the morning, the wind and waves gradually receded, and everyone was busy draining the water from the cargo hold, moving some of the artillery to a lower place, and Lighten the weight above the boat, wrap wet clothes, wet bedding, and wet hammocks on the mast and rigging, and let them be dried by the icy sea breeze.

The Imagination, which had escaped the catastrophe, left the sea area in embarrassment. They needed to find another island to obtain supplies and repair the hull.

This soul-stirring experience also gave Alsherid a blow to the head, and the little elation that had just risen in his heart disappeared, and his sword skills were useless in this situation.

The vast difference between natural forces and manpower is vividly reflected in this disaster.

The Imagination continued to drift in the sea. At this time, it no longer had the ability to hunt down its prey, but it might be regarded as a merchant ship in distress by other pirates. It would be nice if that was the case.

During the temporary overhaul, everyone confirmed one thing to be thankful for, because the gunpowder was well preserved, and most of it could still be used.

Ya Sherid's proven swordsman status and outstanding combat effectiveness on Magnetic Drum Island also gave everyone sufficient confidence.

Under Henry's guidance, the destination of the Imagination is an uninhabited island.

This is the island that Henry recorded in his previous sailing career. There is a natural sheltered bay there. Although it is an uninhabited island, the island is rich in food and fresh water resources. The Imagination can obtain sufficient supplies there.

When the crew of the Imagination finally saw the V-shaped mountain rising from the sea level, nearly half of the people who fell ill were mostly caused by wearing wet or frozen clothes for a long time. Before arriving on this island, the companions who were seriously injured had already died, and everyone could only bury them at sea.

As soon as the mood of joy rose from the deck, the sailors on the observation platform were the first to discover that there was a campfire on the island, which meant that other people had discovered this uninhabited island and were visiting.

This made the crew who had just turned around before the gate of hell very nervous. After the guns were ready, they operated the ship into the harbor, and then lowered the big boat. Asherid was also on the big boat to ensure the safety of landing.

At first everything was normal, but as soon as the big boat approached the beach, suddenly a man rushed out from the woods, which shocked everyone. The man was wearing goatskin and was waving a white cloth.

Everyone was about to shoot indiscriminately.

After the big boat landed on the beach, everyone rushed up and surrounded the guy with unkind eyes.

But soon, everyone found that they couldn't understand what this guy was saying at all. He seemed to have forgotten his mother tongue because he hadn't spoken for a long time. He only spoke fragments and couldn't express clearly.

The world government of the One Piece world is not doing nothing. For hundreds of years, they have vigorously promoted the common language and established a common currency system. Today, the world of One Piece, as long as it is a place where civilization can reach, uses the world government. implemented this system.

After making sure it wasn't a trap, the Fancy's crew sent a safety signal to the distant ship and gave the hapless man a drink, but he wouldn't touch it.

The Kink, which received the signal, dropped anchor in the harbor, and the rest of the ship also completed the landing with another large boat.

For the victim, Henry finally confirmed his identity and experience on this island after communicating with him personally.

The man's name was Daniel Coke, and he had been on the island for four years and five months. He had come here on a three-masted galleon, but the captain of that ship was a terrible leader, and the ship sailed When he arrived here, the hull was covered with shipworms, so Daniel Kok took advantage of the opportunity of the boat to stop here to replenish food and fresh water, and left on his own.

He would rather take the risk of staying on this uninhabited island than continue to die on the great waterway in a disintegrating ship. Most of the time he is in deep despair, scanning the sea level every day, looking forward to The friendly ship that never showed up.

Now that he's adjusted to his solitary world, and the island is home to hundreds of goats, perhaps descended from animals that survived a shipwreck, he's learned to chase and catch them with his bare hands, building two There is a hut with goat skin walls and grass roof, one is the kitchen, and the other is his living room. In order to fight against the swarms of mice that gnaw on his toes while he sleeps, he relies on feeding and getting close to the island's animals. Many feral cats overcame the rodent hordes, and now hundreds of them hang around his cabin every day.

In order to prevent food shortages caused by accidents and diseases, Daniel Coker also managed to tame a few goats. The sheep that he raised with his own hands sometimes danced with him in the lonely hut, and when the clothes were worn out, they used knives and knives. Old nails, new clothes made of sheepskin, and calluses on his feet instead of shoes, he rarely gets sick, and usually eats healthy turnips, goat meat, crayfish and wild cabbage.

After figuring out this person's experience, everyone, including Henry, was convinced.

This man is really capable of rectification.

There are really many small life skills.

Perhaps because their own side had just experienced a shipwreck and lost their companions, the crew of the Imagination showed sympathy for Daniel Coker's experience and were willing to accept him to leave here on the Imagination.

Of course, there are conditions. Henry told Daniel Kok that his side is a pirate ship, so Daniel Kok must serve the operation of the Imagination before disembarking, but he will not be allocated spoils. Correspondingly, Henry and others will ensure that Daniel Coker is treated in the same way as the crew and will send him to the best port the Kinks can reach.

For this condition, Daniel Koch readily accepted, and said that his previous ship was a privateer, and he was familiar with it.

Everyone is satisfied with the result, and everyone is happy.

The crew of the Wonder set up tents on the shore, and they decided to stay on the island for a while, on the one hand, to treat the crew members, and on the other hand, to repair the Wonder, especially the rigging, barrels and sails. .

Twelve days later, the sick recovered under the care of green vegetables and Daniel Kok's special goat soup. Daniel Kok catches three or four sheep every day, and everyone is full of praise for his craftsmanship. Generously contributed the only food seasoning left on board.

After everyone has recovered their health, everyone also began to collect wood on the island, make new wooden barrels and fish.

Ashred set up a temporary workbench on the island, and together with Bussell, he repaired various metal utensils. In his spare time, he mainly practiced swords and wandered around, and collected some under the guidance of Daniel Coker. wild fruit.

Since he went to sea, the only chance he had to eat fruit was on Magnetic Drum Island.

Daniel Koch has largely recovered his normal language communication ability at this time, and has re-accustomed to the diet and life of the Imagination, and now everyone can communicate with him smoothly.

Daniel Coke admires Asherid's double identity as a swordsman and blacksmith, and he is very happy to help Asherid learn to identify whether the various wild fruits on the island are edible.

As a result, Ah Sherid will soon be able to act alone.

On this day, he wandered in the woods as usual, and after returning to land, his condition quickly recovered.

He saw a fruit tree, and the fruits on it were not bad, so he quickly climbed up, found a more comfortable place to sit down, and picked a random fruit from the pile of fruits in front of him.

Daniel Koch introduced him to this orange fruit, which has sweet flesh and is non-toxic, safe to eat.

He opened his mouth to bite, but the next moment, he stopped this movement.

The orange-red spherical fruit grew bigger in his hands, and spiral patterns gradually appeared on the skin, and the blue fruit handle also changed, and the part that was torn off grew again, with a whirlpool at one end and a flame at the other end.

Chapter No.17 Don’t get entangled when eating fruit

Looking at the fruit in his hand, Asherid didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Everyone who has watched One Piece will definitely know such a thing-Devil Fruit.

This thing is the most distinctive thing in the One Piece manga, and it is also the first supernatural element to appear, but no one has ever figured out what it is, how it came about, including what principles those various abilities are based on—— Like OnePiece is a mystery.

The world of One Piece also has science, such as the awesome Vegapunk, but not only the world government, but many forces are also studying the principles of devil fruits. In the middle and late stages of comics, artificial devil fruits appeared, although compared with the original ones There are many flaws, but it is undeniable that this path has been wade out.

But for a person who has never seen the latest chapter of One Piece manga and regards it as a form of entertainment, it is a bit embarrassing for Fat Tiger to be able to distinguish the devil fruit from its appearance.

Asherid looked at the fruit in his hand over and over, but unfortunately, he didn't see why. He was sure that it was a devil fruit, but that was all.

【My luck is too good...】

Asherid gave up his desire to inquire, and he thought of the phrase "those who survive a catastrophe must have blessings".

This compensation is in place.

Eat, that's for sure.

It is hard to think about keeping the money for sale. Even if a devil fruit can be sold at a high price of hundreds of millions of Baileys, this kind of transaction itself depends on the target, and human nature cannot stand the test.

But from the beginning to the end, Asherid didn't worry about what the fruit's ability was.

Judging from the comics, Devil Fruit is anti-scientific and abstract concepts, and basically does not have any real waste abilities. As long as you use the right method, it will only become stronger by a large margin instead of changing. Weak, as for the defect of being weaker than seawater and its substitutes, it will vary from person to person.

But the fruit does have different grades, and it also pays attention to adaptability, but the devil's illustrated book is not an official authoritative book. It is mostly recorded by individuals and compiled into a book. There should not be too many editions. The versions are naturally highly credible, but there are so many versions on the market that it is hard to tell whether they are true or not. Yserra can buy all of them, which are roughly equivalent to the grade of street stall literature.

Thinking about this is futile.

Ashred took a bite, and took as big a bite as possible.

The strange taste hit the taste buds, but one thing to say, compared to spoiled food and fresh water, so be it.

Asherid chewed and swallowed this part of the pulp into his stomach slowly, then held the rest of the devil fruit in his arms, sat quietly in the same place, and began to wait.

The usual saying about devil fruit is that as long as you eat the fruit, you will know the name of the fruit, but what ability you get is gambling.

Ashred didn't have to wait long.

Hearsay doesn't necessarily mean bullshit, at least this time.

Without any omen, nor any special phenomenon to manifest, Alsherid knew the name of the fruit, and he was very surprised.

The place where he was sitting suddenly burst into flames, and quickly spread to the tree.

In just a moment, the fruit tree full of fruits has become a torch.

But before that, Asherid had already escaped in time and landed on the ground again, but when his feet stepped on the ground, flames also burst out from the place they touched.

At this point, Asherid already knew what fruit he ate.

Burn the fruit.

This incident was surprising, but after actually obtaining the ability of this fruit, Asherid also understood what kind of changes the natural devil fruit would bring to people.

His body possesses duality, and becomes a strange state in which body and entity exist at the same time. The body is the corresponding natural element, and the entity is the "true body". At the same time, the entity is conceptual rather than physical, so All non-weak point strike methods are unable to physically touch the entity of the ability user.

The current Ashred is actually a fire in human skin. It looks like a person, but its essence is already a natural phenomenon of fire. Fortunately, the Rudy Ford school swordsmanship he practiced is a physical school, which pays special attention to the body and strength. The ability to control, which corresponds to the self-control of the natural department, otherwise he would most likely turn into a burning man first, and the burning fruit left in his hand would be burned like a fruit tree.

Considering that the operation mechanism of the same type of devil fruit is highly consistent, the smoke fruit, rustle fruit, thunder fruit, sparkle fruit, frozen fruit, and magma fruit that have appeared in the comics must be the same, with fluidity The body will be a common feature, so it seems that the dark fruit is indeed very special. Although it is also a natural system, its "flow" is embodied as "gravity", which will accurately lead the attack to the entity and cause greater pain.

Ashred picked up the devil fruit in his hand again and looked at it. The spiral fruit patterns on it really looked like fireballs.

As for whether only the first one to eat will get the ability, it depends on the next experiment.

But before that, the fire must be extinguished.

Due to his previous incompatibility, the fire has already been caused.

The flames had already spread from the fruit tree to other places, and considerable flames had already formed where he had stepped on before.

After "stabilizing" his body first, getting familiar with the new state, and ensuring that he wouldn't accidentally burn it, he began to try to control the flames directly caused by himself.

With great success, the flames were under his control, separated from the burning objects, and submerged into his body.

Asherid patted his body to make sure he was all right and stabilized before turning around and walking in the direction of the camp.

Not long after, he had returned to the shore. Some of the crew of the Imagination were fishing, some were arranging wood and other supplies, and the carpenters were using new wood to make various tools. The sails that have been repaired and repaired are spread out to dry, and some people have just completed their shifts and are resting.

The appearance of Asherid did not attract their special attention at first, until Asherid deliberately raised the burning fruit that had been bitten in his hand.

In the end, everyone including Daniel Kok lost their voices as they looked at the burning fruit in Asherid's hand.

"Asherid, this... this... is that?" Henry who heard the news didn't straighten his tongue for a long time.

"Captain, I just picked a fruit from the tree, and it became like this after one bite."

Asherid said with a calm face, his mood was very stable, in stark contrast to the others.

"Devil fruit!" Daniel Kok said with wide eyes, "This is a devil fruit!"

In fact, he always thought that his luck was good.

But now, Asherid, who has only been here for more than ten days, turned around and picked a devil fruit, which made his mentality collapse a bit.

He has lived here for more than four years!

The crew of the Imagination were also paralyzed.

No one thought that they could really see this thing in their lifetime.

"Asherid, have you acquired the ability?" Henry had seen the world after all, and after a brief shock, he thought of the point.

"I got it. It didn't take long for me to know its name, it's called Shao Shao Guo."

"Burning? Fire?"

This name is really easy to understand, and Henry thought of it all at once.

The envy in everyone's eyes can't be hidden.

"That's right, Captain, let's share it with everyone." Asherid stuffed the burning fruit directly into Henry's hand, "I didn't notice it before, the first bite was a bit bigger."

"Are you willing to share!?" Henry's voice changed a little.

In all fairness, if it were him, he would definitely eat all of the 21, regardless of the principle of sharing.

What if you don’t have enough energy to eat?

"Asherid!" Henry suddenly yelled.

startled.

"You come to be the captain!" Henry held the burning fruit tightly with one hand, and patted Yasherid's shoulder heavily with the other. "I don't feel good if you don't become the captain! I'll be the first mate for you!"

"What about me?" Diss on the side couldn't help asking, although he also felt that Asherid should be the new captain, after all, Asherid fully demonstrated his character in this matter.

"You fucking go to be the second officer!"

Henry responded casually, and looked at Al Sherid expectantly.

But Ya Sherid now only thinks it is "very dangerous".

After Henry's slap, Ashred, who had only initially adapted to his new body, almost lost control.

It's too dangerous, and he needs to get more familiar with it, but Henry, who is obviously emotional, can't take a few more shots.

"Captain, compared to this, you should share and eat quickly. It will be bad if it breaks."
