The Most Wasteful Fruit Among Pirates

"Tsk, you actually ran in front of me?"

Just as Rossi was approaching the pier, he stopped.

Because a boy in a black suit, wearing a flowered scarf, and with short curly black hair combed back stood in front of him.

Senior Pique,

The other party should have rushed over from the orphanage, but can they be ahead of Rossi, that is to say, they have already eaten the 'Shui Shui Fruit'?

Shui Shui Guo sounds like a 'natural type', but it's not.

This ability will turn a part of the ground or wall into a water-like rippling substance, and the capable person can freely dive into the ground or wall after the surface of the water, just like swimming, so as to allow himself to enter a different space. of rapid movement.

To put it simply, this ability can be regarded as the Devil Fruit version of "Tu Xing Sun".

Or it would be more appropriate to call it 'swimming fruit'.

It is precisely because he can swim in a straight line in the ground that he can stop Rossi.

"Whatever you want to say, there's no point—because we're leaving the city in a moment."

Now that he has decided not to take this muddy water, Rossi is of course not prepared to have any contact with the other party.

It doesn't matter whether Peak is playing the role of CP3's agent, or the genius of the orphanage, or the role of the Queen's bodyguard. Nothing to do with Rosie!

"and many more,"

Although Rossi didn't want to cause trouble, the boy opposite didn't think so.

Footsteps moved sideways, and Pique stood in front of Rossi, posing an attacking stance.

"Sneak into the orphanage and approach Miss Jora twice, what is your purpose?"

Tsk, if it weren't for the appearance of you CP3s, who would have nothing to do and go to the orphanage to investigate.

"What's the purpose?"

"Hmph, you shouldn't be qualified to question me, right?"

Now that the opponent had already put on a stance, Rossi, who was not in a good mood, naturally didn't bother to talk nonsense, and just stepped forward and punched the opponent!

After getting enough nutrition, Rossi's body entered a period of rapid growth.

You must know that after more than 20 years, Rossi is a "super general" with a height of 4 meters. Even now, he is already a teenager in his teens just by appearance.

call-

The fist made a dull cracking sound.

Although it was just a simple forehand punch, with Rossi's current strength, things like "killing a cow with one punch" are no longer bragging, but a real daily routine.

Boom!

The fist hit the opponent's face firmly, but Rossi was a little surprised.

No, since Pique is an agent of CP3, there's no reason why he can't even dodge such a punch—

Letting Rossi's fist hit his face, Pique's hands grabbed Rossi's arm at the same time. Then he stumbled while spinning suddenly, and smashed Rossi, who had lost his center of gravity, to the concrete railing next to him.

I see,

In the pupil, the obtuse angle of the concrete railing enlarged rapidly, and Rossi 'suddenly realized' in his heart.

Let the opponent attack first, and then at the moment of pause when the opponent hits, grab the opponent and smash them to the ground and buildings. This is the fighting style of professional wrestlers.

Snapped,

Then this fierce move did not hurt Rossi, and when he was about to touch the concrete railing, Rossi had already adjusted his posture in mid-air.

Stretch out your hand and press it on the railing, then your five fingers began to bend, then your palm touched the cement, and finally your elbow joint began to bend—under layers of buffering, the vicious impact force was eliminated invisible.

? !

"It's my turn—"

The arm grasped by the opponent suddenly expanded, and then contracted in an instant!

The muscles were like snakes crawling, and they suddenly broke free from Pique's grip. At the same time, the whole person quickly slid across a semicircle, and circled behind Pique from the blind spot of Pique's sight.

"Take a trick from me,"

With both hands wrapped around Pique's waist, the muscles of his legs suddenly tightened! Rossi directly lifted the opponent off the ground, then threw his head back suddenly.

Abdominal and back hugging back fall,

It is also the famous "German-style rear axle fall"!

puff,

As the back of the pickup's head and the ground were 'kissed' together, a pit was smashed into the concrete floor!

"really···"

A neat circular 'ring' pit was formed on the concrete floor, allowing Pique's half of his head to fall into it.

The scene looks a bit like a "comedy cartoon", but if Rossi didn't know the opponent's ability. Immediately retract the force, then this back fall did not hurt the opponent, but may injure his own neck bone instead.

Water fruit, the most suitable fruit for assassination!

In front of this fruit, no matter whether it is a steel fortress or a solid castle, it is useless. In terms of infiltration ability, it is even more perverted than the 'invisible fruit'.

As Pique's entire upper body 'submerged' directly into the concrete floor, Rossi had to let go of the opponent and turn over and back away.

"A devil fruit capable user?"

Rossi, who knew what to ask, sneered,

"I thought you were going to play tough guy duel with me."

"···Feel sorry,"

Pique, who was on the rippling concrete floor, turned to face Rossi with a trace of sadness on his face.

"If possible, I also want to have a man-to-man battle with you."

"But my status doesn't allow me to do that,"

Puff,

After speaking, he sank down and disappeared into the ground. As the 'ripples' on the concrete floor calmed down, Pique completely hid underground.

Only Rossi, who was standing guard, was left, not knowing where the opponent would launch an attack!

"Do you think I can't do anything about you if I sneak into the ground?"

After a few steps, he rushed to the street lamp next to him, and reached out to grab the lampshade while jumping upwards. Rossi turned over lightly and squatted on the top of the street lamp.

Although the water fruit can allow Pique to 'swim' in all substances, just like it is impossible for a whale to flop in a small puddle, it is impossible for him to activate his ability in a substance that is significantly smaller than himself.

What about people? !

Pique's "line of sight" swimming in the mud with his devil fruit ability is almost equivalent to the muddy water. Originally, he could only see an outline, but after the opponent flew a few steps, there was no trace of falling.

Did it stop at the top of a building?

puff,

The black curly-haired boy poked his head out from under the concrete floor, and looked at Rossi who was squatting on the street lamp speechlessly.

It was obviously the first time he fought, but he immediately found a way to deal with his abilities.

This is troublesome...

"trouble,"

And Rossi, who was squatting on the street lamp, frowned uncomfortably. If he ate the 'thread fruit', he would just spread the silk thread on the ground and wait for the other party to 'cast himself into the net'.

As for the fruit of silence... it has almost no effect on Pique who can sneak into the ground and buildings at will.

After a tentative fight with each other, both sides felt that the other was a tricky guy.

"Again, I'm not interested in what's going to happen here."

Rossi, who was squatting on the street lamp, was thinking about how to deal with "Shui Shui Guo", and impatiently "showdown".

"I won't delve into the city's problems, and I hope you won't keep pestering me."

"It seems that you really know a lot."

From the hints in and out of Rossi's words, Pique already understood that the other party knew about the "disaster" that the city was about to encounter. The irony is that Pique has a "credit" for this disaster.

"I understand,"

The whole person emerged from the ground and stood firmly on the concrete floor. Pique, who originally thought that Rosie would be unfavorable to 'Miss Chora', already understood the opponent's position.

That is the passer-by who accidentally learned the truth and just wanted to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

What's more, now that the arrow is on the string, even if someone knows the truth, so what?

"As long as you know."

Now that the opponent no longer has the desire to continue fighting, Rossi also leaped down from the street lamp.

"So, goodbye... no, goodbye forever."

Just when Rossi was about to turn around and leave, there was a sudden 'boom' from behind.

?

"Although I don't know who you are, I want to ask you one thing."

Rossi turned his head and saw Pique who was kneeling on his knees facing him.

? ?

"Hey, which show is this from?"

—

Don Quixote,

"Rosie, what's wrong with you?"

Rossi with a stinky face pushed open the door of the captain's cabin and walked in, making Dover raise his head in doubt and ask.

"Don't mention it, I have encountered a lot of troubles-"

From the information obtained by the orphanage, it can be seen that 'Poliziano Chora' at this point in time is definitely a good person. The reason why she became the noisy, narcissistic, cruel and nervous aunt was mostly because of this disaster.

And Senior Pique is still a member of CP3, but since he will later become a cadre of the Don Quixote family together with Jorah, it is likely that he betrayed the World Government in the upcoming event...

Perhaps it was because of this 'betrayal' - not a betrayal of the CP agency, but a betrayal of Jorah's trust. Let Senior Pique subconsciously conceal his true identity from his wife in the future, leading to a series of tragedies.

Just now, faced with the kneeling Pique's request to 'take away' Jorah, Rossi did not refuse.

"Fufufu, I know what you're worrying about."

Putting down the book in his hand, Dover pushed his sunglasses.

"Rosie, you want to help this city resist pirates, right?"

···

"I said, I said, didn't I?"

Torrebol next to him turned his head in surprise,

"That's more than a dozen pirates, and there are strong men like 'White Dragon' Balf Tani! Rossi, are you sure you don't have a fever—"

Rossi rolled his eyes at the hand that Torrebol extended.

"Don't make trouble, I know the opponent is very strong..."

If they were just passers-by, perhaps Rossi would not hesitate so much, but Jorah and Pique would have become cadres of the Don Quixote family in the 'original' timeline.

After discovering that both of them are rare 'good guys', Rossi became even more entangled.

To help or not to help, that is the question.

"Dover, what do you say?"

Diamanti, who was holding a long sword, looked at Dover. As for Virgo and Pica, they still belonged to the age of 'we will do whatever you say'.

Not everyone is as precocious as Rossi and Dover.

"Fufufu, of course—"

"Stay here to see the demeanor of the number one pirate in the North Sea!"

? ? ?

Amidst the surprised expressions of the others, Dover raised his legs, gradually revealing his boldness.

"If the city wins, we will just sell them a favor to lay the foundation for future shipping transactions; if the Pirate Alliance wins, we will take advantage of the chaos to loot first to make up for the loss of our cargo!"

"As for the detailed planning—that is your task, Rosie."

"Dover, you are too accommodating to Rosie..."

Torrepol, who didn't want to face the North Sea legend "White Dragon" Balf Tani's subconscious complaints, and Dover just laughed.

"Who made Rosie my brother? Besides, I don't want to run away in such a desperate way—what's your opinion?"

"I'm in favor of staying,"

Screeching Pica was the first to assent;

"I agree too,"

Serious Virgo followed;

"To tell you the truth, I prefer to 'bully the weak' than to challenge the strong."

Facing the family members present, Diamanti confided indifferently. But that's what everyone else said—

"You all say I'm a genius, so I'll meet that 'White Dragon' Balf Tani!"

No, no, no one says you are a genius, okay...

"You... let me say something,"

Torrepol, who was wearing small sunglasses, rolled his eyes. Since everyone else has decided to "touch" the pirate coalition forces that are about to attack the city, he can only—

"Okay, let's use those guys as the stepping stones for our 'Don Quixote Family' to become famous!"

The Don Quixote family voted unanimously to stay and witness the future of the city.

And the reason is just for Rossi alone!

"···thanks,"

Rossi looked around for a week. In the end, it was just his own wishful thinking to help the city, or to change the fate of Jorah and Pique.

However, whether it was Dover, Pica, Virgo, or even Torrepol and Diamanti, they all chose to help him unconditionally.

— without even asking why!

"Thank you, thank you, hurry up and come up with a detailed plan~~"

PS: It’s a bit of a cavalier, mainly the kind of plot of “the protagonist gives an order, and the others rush forward”, I really can’t write it...
