Chapter 121 The Birth of the Castle Ghost
Adrian lowered his head slightly and carefully looked at the mini ship spirit in his palm that was born from the Pirate King's ship "Auro Jackson".
Except for its size, its appearance is not much different from the description in the fairy tale.
Wearing a crimson raincoat with the same color as the sail, it held a small mallet in its hand. The large hood covered the upper half of its face, revealing its white and pointed chin.
The whole body was shining with a faint blue light, and there were faint particles of light floating around.
The Oro Jackson was severely damaged, and it seemed that the ship spirit itself was seriously injured. At this time, it was curling up and sleeping quietly on its side in the palm of its hand.
Suddenly, an idea came to Adrian's mind.
He raised his left hand, and the tip of his index finger condensed a small ball of psionic energy light bullets. A thin semi-illusory luminous tentacle extended from the surface of the light ball, passing through the air and touching the crimson raincoat on the surface of the ship spirit.
Waves of silent fluctuations appeared.
With the continuous replenishment of nether energy, Ship Spirit's condition seems to have improved a lot.
'It feels a bit like having a little pet...'
An inexplicable thought suddenly appeared in Adrian's mind, and he couldn't help but curl his lips slightly.
This scene also made Mr. Tom laugh happily: "Tahahahaha - really! Really! It's amazing! White ghost!"
"After living for so many years, this is the first time I have seen a real boat spirit! Originally, I always thought that the boat spirit was just an ancient myth and legend among the shipwrights of the Seven Waters City!"
"Maybe it's because of my special abilities," Adrian said calmly, "Sorry, Mr. Tom, this boat spirit is still very weak due to past experiences. I wonder if you have a quieter room here? ”
Mr. Tom said quickly: "It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter! I'll just leave! Just stay here, and I can assure you that no one will bother you!"
After saying that, Mr. Tom left directly. Before leaving, he couldn't help but shook his head and marveled.
Adrian stood on the spot and continued to input psionic energy into the ship spirit.
As time passes.
The ship spirit's condition has also been further restored. Its body has completely stretched out, and its original mini body is slowly increasing. The back of the crimson raincoat that covers the whole body and only exposes the hands and feet also appears. There are two white wave ripples similar to the Roger Pirates flag logo.
When the body grew to about thirty centimeters, the boat spirit finally woke up.
"Oh, what's wrong with me..."
The boat spirit spoke softly to himself, with a confused emotion in his tone.
"How does it feel to wake up?"
An unfamiliar voice sounded in the boat spirit's ears, startling it and causing it to fly up.
It was also at this time that the Ship Spirit finally discovered the nether energy tentacle connected with its body. It could clearly feel that this nether energy tentacle was constantly replenishing itself with the "nutrients" it needed!
When it looked up along the tentacles, it saw the owner of the voice that just spoke.
The boat spirit naturally asked: "Oh! Who are you?"
"My name is Adrian, is Oral Jackson your name?"
"No, Oral Jackson is the name of the ship." The ship spirit shook his head, "Roger likes to call me 'Rumi', so my name is Rumi."
The boat spirit with a bit of a mouth habit is inexplicably cute...
Adrian said: "So the people from the Roger Pirates have discovered your existence a long time ago?"
Ship Spirit Rumi said: "Actually, only Roger can [hear] my existence. He has a strange ability called [Listening to the Voice of All Things], and he can directly hear the [spiritual voice] of other creatures." .”
Adrian nodded slightly.
The Ship Spirit has a shy character that does not like to appear in front of other creatures. Even if it is a partner who gets along day and night, if it is not really critical, the Ship Spirit will not show up, just like Merry later.
During the break between words, Rumi finally discovered the dilapidated "Auro Jackson" anchored on the surface of the water pool not far away. At the same time, his experience before falling asleep emerged in its mind.
"Oh, thank you for saving me."
Adrian smiled slightly, "Rumi, what do you want to do now?"
What to do?
Rumi wanted to just say that he would continue to sail with the pirates, but he suddenly realized that neither the Roger Pirates nor the Oro Jackson existed anymore.
The ship elf became confused for a moment.
"If you have nowhere to go, why not come with me first," Adrian said, "Formal introduction, I am a newbie pirate."
"You..." Rumi hesitated, but at this time it couldn't think of a better way, "Okay."
Adrian wanted to take Rumi out directly, but he noticed that Rumi had been looking at the position of the Oro Jackson reluctantly, and his mind moved.
He asked: "Rumi, do you want to continue living with the Oro Jackson?"
"It's impossible..." Rumi came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "The Oro Jackson has been completely damaged and can no longer continue sailing."
"Although there is no way to continue sailing, there is still a way to keep the Oral Jackson with you."
Adrian said as he raised his right palm, a dark gray devil fruit with a spiral pattern of arabic grass appeared out of thin air in his palm. It was the [Fortress Fruit] that he had obtained a long time ago!
As one of the system rewards, Fortified City Fruit can be stored within the system. (make a small patch)
Adrian's original plan was to feed the [Fortified City Fruit] to the awakened [Ship Spirit]!
Isn't it just right at this moment?
Rumi flew over here and looked at it curiously, "Oh, is this a devil fruit?"
"Yes, this is the Superman-Fortified City Fruit." Adrian introduced, "The fruit's ability is to turn the eater's body into a castle, and other things can be shrunk and placed inside the body."
"Adrian, are you going to eat this fruit?" Rumi asked, "But you seem to already have the ability?"
Adrian shook his head, nodded again, and said: "Yes, I am already a user with the ability of the ghost fruit. So the one who wants to eat such a devil fruit is not me, but you, Rumi."
"Oh? Me!" Rumi was shocked, "Can ship spirits also eat devil fruits?"
"Rumi, don't you like devil fruit powers? I've heard that most of the members of the Roger Pirates are non-powerful people."
"That's not true, it's just that the ship spirit feels a little weird after eating the devil fruit..."
"It doesn't matter, the essence of the Devil Fruit is not the [fruit] on the outside, but the [devil's power] that lives in the fruit!"
In the end, out of his strong reluctance to leave the Oro Jackson and with Adrian's constant encouragement, Rumi decided to eat the Fortress Fruit.
As soon as he took a small bite, Rumi pursed his lips and said, "Oh! It really tastes as bad as the rumors!"
Thank you to readers "Ruolong Han" and "Zijing Yuming" for the 100 starting coin reward! !
The two updates will be put together in the afternoon.
