Ghost knife pirates of the pirate king

Looking at the companions around them, they were still breathing. The faces of the pirates were extremely ugly, but very few of them shed tears. No one said a word to Kagemaru's order to "advance", but looked resolutely into the dark. Everyone in the front knows that if you retreat at this moment, I will feel sorry for everyone who fell behind you. The only way is to continue walking.

Charlotte sighed secretly, these pirates were indeed different from the scum he had encountered before.

But despite this, Charlotte still wanted to ask, "Go forward, let's go", as if you really knew where to go. But even though he was full of ridicule, when he saw the expressions on Kagemaru's and the others' faces, he didn't. Say it out loud...it won't do you any good to start a fight at this time.

For this relic, if Kagemaru and the others were angry, then he had a lot of doubts lingering in his heart. His brows were not furrowed as he thought about this relic.

What kind of 'reward' would lead to such a test, and what was the whisper that appeared in the ears when the 'black hole' appeared?

Today, he is still trapped in a fog, and everything seems to have answers. However, these answers are unknown. He can ignore things without clues, but he cannot accept the answers that are specious.

It seems that he still has to reach the end before the truth will be revealed in front of him.

"Kingmaru, there is a door over here." Xia Luo said.

Kagemaru nodded, led his men, and followed Charlotte towards the door, which was about four meters high. When several people walked in front of it, the door opened by itself before they could push it.

Behind the door, it suddenly became clear.

The bright light made them squint a little, and they could clearly see the scene behind the door. It was a palace-like place, but simple and unpretentious. The wide hall was surrounded by walls on the left and right. There were no lights, but it was bright. Beyond this, there is no exit.

At the very center, there is a fruit with a strange shape and countless twisted lines, suspended in mid-air.

Keimaru murmured softly: "Devil Fruit..."

"Is this a Devil Fruit?" Charlotte hadn't even seen this thing in books, not to mention the actual thing. He suddenly thought of what Ada said before entering the ruins. It seems that these so-called divine ruins are really related to Devil Fruits. relation?If so, could those hallucinations and lights just now be caused by this fruit?

Suddenly, Charlotte raised his eyebrows and saw a dozen people sitting in a corner not far away. Their eyes were dull, soulless, and slumped. It was the Ushijia Pirates and their group who had traveled a day ahead of them. At first, they had at least about 30 people, but now less than half are left. It can be imagined that the proportion of casualties during this journey is no less than that of the Kagemaru Pirates.

There was an atmosphere of despair among the Ushikaku Pirates. Everyone was looking down and murmuring. Everyone had their heads lowered. Even if they saw them appearing, no one paid attention.

Despair because...the team was almost wiped out?He also said it was...

Charlotte stared at the fruit, with clear lines, and thought to himself: "Could it be that the reward of all that just now was this devil fruit? But why didn't they take it away first? The trap?" His brain was running rapidly, and he finally decided to use Stop and observe first.

"Only, is this all there?" Kagemaru said softly, his voice trembling slightly: "Only...one Devil Fruit? Just for this kind of thing, so many brothers died?"

Ada was also filled with resentment: "Did Nico die for this kind of thing?"

A group of pirates also started shouting.

"Devil Fruit!"

"It's a devil fruit!"

“Take it and you’ll get rich!”

"There is a treasure after all, hahaha...

... "

"Captain! Take it away!"

Devil Fruits are extremely valuable in the sea. They are even priceless. One can be sold for [-] million at any time. Devil Fruits found in the ruins of this kind of spiritual system can exceed this price at any time and may be as good as natural ones. Department, maybe this is the fruit of the natural system.

Everyone showed a greedy look, except for Kagemaru and Ada. They are emotional people. Rather than getting rich, in the past when exploring ruins, they cared more about the exploration process, but this time, they couldn't find anything at all. Adventure, only sudden death.

For them, no amount of money or wealth can bring back the lost partner.

Especially Ada, he was closer to several other people than the authoritative captain. Nico was a very good friend of his. Compared to the other dead pirates, Nico's death shocked him. It has not been restored yet.

They slowly approached the Devil Fruit step by step.

Finally, they also noticed Ruikai and the others. Kagemaru suddenly woke up and saw the desperate expressions of Ruikai and the others. His eyes were red, as if he had cried just now. He was not as high-spirited as yesterday afternoon. When he looked up at them, his expressions seemed The smile was not a smile, as if he was preparing to watch a good show.

He finally began to feel uneasy. This fruit...maybe it was some kind of trap?So he raised his hand, stopped his men's footsteps, then walked in front of the horned young man Ruikai, and asked: "What did you find?"

? ”

"I found out, it turns out we are all a bunch of idiots." Ricky laughed, his smile uglier than crying, "There is nothing here. If you don't believe it, you can grab the fruit and try it."

At this moment, his men all showed similar expressions, all with strange smiles, waiting for the moment when they stretched out their hands to grab the fruit.

Jing Xin is also struggling in his heart. He is really afraid that this is a trap. It's not that he is afraid of death or anything, but... if this fruit is just a trap, then everything he has just paid will be lost. Dissipated into a cloud of smoke.

"Captain, why don't you let me do it!" Ada walked to his side.

"No, I'll do it myself."

Kagemaru took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the fruit. He found that his fingers were trembling slightly... If, if he really couldn't catch it, then... Kagemaru couldn't imagine it anymore, but Ushikakukai The expressions of the thieves were not fake.

How could hundreds of millions of Baileys bring such despair?

Finally, I reached the side of the devil fruit.

For a long time, in Keimaru's senses, it seemed like a day, a night, and a month had passed. Under the gaze of everyone, he slowly reached for the devil fruit with his trembling hand.

The texture is so real, you can even vaguely smell it.

However, his hand just passed through it, and when he grasped it with his free fingers, he found nothing... Nothing, nothing. This devil fruit did not exist at all.

"Really...it's just a scam..." Keimaru murmured, his pupils trembling.

"Hahaha..." Ricky laughed hysterically. Everyone around him, except Kidd, was laughing extremely crazily, as if they were looking at fools.

"We were all deceived! This is not a relic that can make us rich at all, it's just a... scam!" Ricky laughed so hard that tears welled up in his eyes.

Kagemaru staggered and fell back. Ada reached out to support him and whispered: "Captain, is it true... is it a lie?"

"Everything is fake! That fruit is just a projection!"
