Chapter 574: Shanks comes to your door, you can’t let him go
Doing two out of two is an effect that even the Straw Hat version of Shanks couldn't achieve!
Straw Hat's [Advanced Lucky Halo (fake)] can't beat the clown's overbearing luck...
But then again.
With Bucky's terrifying luck and delivery rate, if he catches enough people with Devil Fruit abilities and brings them to him, and then continuously conducts metaphysical rebirth experiments, wouldn't he be able to obtain a large number of Devil Fruits in an endless stream?
Adrian fell into a daydream.
Bucky was so uncomfortable under Adrian's gaze that he almost burst into tears. He could only smile awkwardly and said, "Well, is there anything else?"
"Not yet. I have to say, your luck seems to be much better than Shanks."
Adrian came back to his senses, shook his head, and at the same time called Rumi to put the barrier fruit in his hand into his private treasury.
No matter how strong Mr. Bucky's luck is, he doesn't have any extra Devil Fruit ability user test items in his hands now, so it's useless to think about it.
As for the torn fruit...
That's Bucky's own fruit ability!
We can’t do experiments either!
"Hahaha! I--ahem! I am a man who is determined to find all the treasures in the sea!"
Bucky was about to laugh wildly when he suddenly remembered the identity of the man in front of him and quickly changed his words.
No matter how kind and gentle he is at this moment, he can't cover up the opponent's terrifying record of single-killing Charlotte Lingling...
Recalling the terrifying image of Charlotte Lingling, the crazy criticizing woman, even Bucky's thick nerves couldn't help but tremble.
Adrian nodded and then said to Shanks.
"Now, our debts are cleared?"
Shanks previously owed two Devil Fruits, and now Bucky has used two more, which can indeed offset each other.
After hearing what Adrian said, Shanks, who had just woken up from Bucky's luck show, nodded hurriedly.
"Of course not——"
"Wait!"
It was Bucky who interrupted. He looked at Shanks and then at Adrian.
“I don’t think it’s possible!”
Shanks was in disbelief, "Bucky?!"
Bucky looked grim, "Humph!"
Adrian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, crossed his arms across his chest, and watched the performance of these love-hating friends at leisure.
"Bucky!" Shanks walked over and lifted Bucky's shoulders, as if he wanted to impress him with emotion and reason.
"No!" Bucky shook his head vigorously, "Don't forget that last time we were on Toriyama Island, you said that I 'can't represent' you! So it won't work this time either!"
Bucky was referring to the fact that after the sword test competition to determine the world's greatest swordsman, the White Ghost boarded the Redfors to collect debts. He originally wanted to get a Devil Fruit, but Shanks said so bluntly. The time I refused. (Chapter 464)
Things are changing...
Bucky looked at Shanks arrogantly, "I don't want to pay back the debt you owe yourself!"
Shanks tried his best to smile, and after trying his best to persuade him, he almost knelt down and begged for help, but he still couldn't convince the clown.
Seeing that the good friends couldn't stop arguing, Adrian had no choice but to make a decision for them.
"If Bucky doesn't agree, there's nothing we can do, Shanks."
Adrian said.
"But since two coins have been issued this time, let's reduce your debt by one more!"
Shanks was overjoyed immediately, "Really? Thank you so much!!...Uh?"
Why would I actually thank this evil guy for his kindness? !
Shanks is going crazy.
Bucky swallowed and raised his right hand to signal, "What about me?"
"Huh?" Adrian was a little confused.
Bucky plucked up the courage and pointed at the bodies of Kurotan Orochi and Kurotan Chanmaru.
"Those two...I must have played some role. Shouldn't I be...rewarded or something?"
Shanks looked at his gay friend in shock.
As expected of you, Bucky!
How dare you ask Adrian for money!
"Well, that makes sense."
Adrian agreed with Bucky's statement.
Ultimately, the devil fruit rebirth experiment requires the help of luck metaphysics.
Bucky's overlord luck really helped a lot.
"So what reward do you want?" Adrian asked.
"I want——"
Bucky thought quickly.
He originally wanted to ask for a Devil Fruit directly. After all, the value of Devil Fruit is indeed very high.
But Bucky couldn’t understand what the hell “experiment” just was!
He just felt like he was a brick, and he listened to the white ghost's instructions and walked around. The work he put in was just holding the fruit...
How much could this be worth?
Bucky doesn’t know, but even by the Joker’s standards, he is definitely not worthy of a Devil Fruit!
The most important thing is, if he shamelessly asks for a Devil Fruit, he won't be killed by the white ghost...
Adrian looked at Bucky who was originally full of interest, but suddenly became depressed for no reason.
I saw Bucky's shoulders slumped, "Why don't you just give it to me... Bailey, gold, jewelry, I won't choose!"
It’s surprisingly easy to pass the time...
No, I should say this is very Bucky.
"Gold and silver treasures..."
Adrian thought for a moment, called Rumi again, and casually picked out a pile of ordinary gold and silver from his private treasure house.
Although he doesn't like money, after so many years of playing pirates and gaining experience, Adrian doesn't even know how much money he has now.
"I'll give these to you!"
With Bucky's rich experience in treasure hunting, he could tell at a glance that the value of the pile of gold and silver was definitely more than 50 million beli!
"Really?!"
Bucky jumped three feet high and his head flew out, looking extremely excited.
So it turns out that doing this experiment is so profitable? !
It’s easy and comfortable, and you can make a lot of money!
"Boss! Next time you have this job, remember to find me!"
Bucky quickly took the pile of gold and silver into his arms, put it into the sack he carried with him, and carried it on his shoulders.
Seeing Bucky's extremely skilled movements, Adrian's mouth twitched slightly, but he didn't refuse.
"Okay...give me your life card first!"
……
Aboard the Redfors.
The crew of the red-haired pirates, who were originally in solemn silence, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing that their captain and the red-nosed clown returned safely and uninjured.
Adrian, who was in a good mood, ignored the vigilant looks of Beckman and others, and then took the pirate ship directly to Elbaf Island.
As the distance continues to get closer.
Shanks and the red-haired pirates finally saw the huge dragon head that was frozen on the edge of Elbaf Island.
"What is that?"
“It’s like an island!”
"Is it a meteorite falling from the sky?"
"It seems like we didn't have this thing when we came last time..."
Everyone in the red-haired pirate group marveled at Nidhogg's dragon head.
Several senior cadres with relatively strong knowledge and intelligence saw the dragon head frozen in the ice at a glance.
"That dragon..."
Shanks looked at the black dragon head with a blank expression. Just by seeing it, he could imagine the general strength of such a huge creature from the side, which is definitely higher than 99% of the people in this sea. existence!
Who on earth can actually chop off the head of such a giant dragon——
"The strength is quite weak."
"??"
The people in the red-haired pirate group all looked at the white ghost. It’s just a head, which is as big as an ordinary small island. You actually call it weak?
White ghost you——
That’s right!
"That is Nidhogg, the poisonous dragon of despair predicted by Elbaf."
Adrian raised his hand and pointed at the faucet.
"But it has been solved in advance."
Shanks looked stiff, not knowing what expression to put on at all.
If he had known that Nidhogg had been eliminated, or even eliminated by a bad guy like Adrian, why would he have rushed to Elbaf in such a hurry!
Isn't this someone who comes to your door asking for abuse? !
"It's really amazing..."
Shanks cheered dryly.
"Actually, you're not bad either!"
Adrian applauded.
"I also read the World Economic News and heard that you and Katakuri teamed up to kill the resurrected Charlotte Lingling?"
"Well..."
Shanks' expression softened and he spoke very seriously.
"Charlotte Lingling is definitely not normal! Her heart was penetrated and she turned into a corpse, but she was still able to resurrect. I heard Charlotte Katakuri say at the time that the resurrected BIGMOM was completely Changed the person, or the soul——"
"That old woman is not important!"
Adrian interrupted Shanks and looked at him with bright eyes.
"Now that you have defeated Charlotte Lingling, do you want to have a try with me?" (End of Chapter)
