I, Uchiha Itachi, became the tenth member of the Straw Hats?

Uncle Fried Rice slowly told the three of them.

The uncle is 57 years old this year. He was exiled to this island with his parents who were listed as criminals when he was seven years old.

At first, the island was a barren land with nothing, and it was specially used by the previous government to exile criminals who were unpardonable but too powerful to be easily killed.

However, later on, a group of very powerful prisoners survived on the island, and they gradually transformed the island, and finally turned the island into an underground kingdom specially set up for those exiled prisoners.

Later, the scale of the underground kingdom grew stronger and stronger, and finally the current Rilkaland was formed.

And the crooked old man under the trade fair was one of the powerful criminals who once built the island together.

"Unfortunately, I don't know his name."

"When I was little, I used to hear him refer to himself as the Redeemer."

"He said he survived only to atone for the traumatic past."

"He became like that after building the island."

Uncle Fried Rice pointed to the dwarf old man in the distance.

Since the construction of this island, the dwarf old man seems to have changed. Every time he meets someone, he only has one sentence.

"Do you want root fruit? I have root fruit here. If you want it, you have to pass my test first."

From the group of prisoners who made this building and this island suitable for human habitation to the people who landed on this island every time, he asked the same words over and over again.

However, every time someone actually sat in front of him and asked him what the test was, he would shake his head and say it after touching that person for a few minutes.

"Unfortunately, you failed the test."

Over time, everyone on this island was disgusted by him.

His previous efforts to build the island were gradually forgotten.

Gradually, he became the person everyone on the island laughed at.

And those pirates and prisoners who newly landed on this island will have doubts about him at first.

And after he accepted the so-called test and was told that he failed, he would become extremely furious and beat him up.

The dwarf old man never resisted being beaten by others, he just said that this is a kind of atonement.

After many years of development, he became a well-known joke on this island.

"Later, the trade fair was considered a joke, so he included his roots in the auction list."

"Every time it is distributed to the pirates who have landed on this island before, it will cause the pirates to laugh constantly, and remind them of the familiarity with Rilcalander."

"So, this is what you see, the source of the fruit."

When Uncle Fried Rice told the three of these things, there was no smile on his face, but endless sadness.

The three of them couldn't come back to their senses after listening to it for a long time.

"I just thought that the root fruit was on this island and could be obtained through auctions. I didn't expect that there would be so many things behind this fruit."

Luo looked at the crooked old man in the distance.

"Headed Itachi, this is my mishandling of information. If this is the case, we probably won't be able to get that root fruit."

"Do you want to get that fruit?" Uncle Fried Rice smiled helplessly.

"It's useless, regardless of the fruit's ability, whether it's begging him, snatching it from him, beating him to death to threaten him to hand over the fruit, or following him to search for the fruit, can't get it."

"It seems that there is only one way to get that fruit, and that is to pass his test."

Hearing Uncle Fried Rice's words, Itachi also looked at the crooked old man.

At this moment, several pirates approached the crooked old man.

The crooked old man raised his eyelids with difficulty, his skin and flesh had collapsed into the eye sockets, only a pair of pitch-black eyeballs were exposed.

"Do you want root fruit? I have root fruit here. If you want it, you have to pass my test first."

"Sure enough, I heard them say that there is a silly old man here, but I didn't expect it to be true."

A tall and thin pirate squatted down.

"Old man, I want root fruit, how can I do it?"

"Please wait a moment, please."

The crooked old man stretched out his dirty hand, which was full of dirt, and put it on the shoulder of the tall and thin pirate.

This made the tall and thin pirate disgusted for a while.

But after a while, the stooped old man shook his head.

"Unfortunately, you failed the test."

The tall and thin pirate's face changed when he heard this.

"Smelly old man, you are really kidding me, aren't you?"

He flew up and kicked the stooped old man's chest, and kicked the old man away with one kick!

The rickety old man grunted in pain, blood was already at the corner of his mouth.

Several pirates stepped forward eagerly.

"Sure enough, just like what they said, he is just a deceiving old fool."

When the fried rice uncle saw this scene, he picked up the kitchen knife and covered it with armed domineering.

"Those bastards! Again."

But just when he was about to rush out, he found that the three Itachi had disappeared.

Freys located the rocks beside the crooked old man through ultra-long-distance vision. Luo had already built a room force field to change positions, and Itachi had already stopped the fist that was about to fall.

"Bastard! Who are you!"

Just as the pirate was about to drop his fist, Itachi only looked around at the pirates, and the pirates fell down one after another.

Only the pirate in the middle with a bounty of 5000 million was left. After undergoing Tsukiyomi's mental attack for no reason, he became incontinent.

Yellow liquid dripped from the crotch.

"This this!"

After Luo's surgical transformation, Itachi's continuous use of Tsukuyomi no longer feels that it is just a waste of pupil power.

The armored troops from the trade fair had already arrived. Just when they thought it was the dispute provoked by the three of Itachi, Uncle Fried Rice came forward and explained the situation clearly.

"You guys, thank you very much." Uncle Fried Rice bowed to the three of them.

"Ah, it's okay." Luo waved his hand, and he looked at Itachi.

"Master Itachi, I'm sorry about this matter, if we say that, we probably won't be able to get this fruit."

The bell of the auction fair has also rang, and there is still an hour before the auction starts, and all the pirates who have arrived are moving towards this side.

"Isn't the fruit in the hands of this old man?" Itachi pointed at the crooked old man with his chin.

"Can..."

The old man was still muttering that sentence: "Do you want root fruit? I have root fruit here. If you want it, you have to pass my test first."

Itachi looked at Freys and Luo, and said, "Maybe I'll give it a try."

Luo froze for a moment, then nodded.

"Alright, we can't come here in vain."

"Do you want to give it a try too?" Uncle Fried Rice was a little nervous, he was afraid that the three of them would become impatient after being rejected by the crooked old man.

"Don't worry, uncle." Luo Chao fried rice uncle nodded.

"We're not the kind of people who can use violence casually."

"Yes, yes, these two big brothers are very kind. Blink." Freys said.

"Well, I trust you."

Uncle Fried Rice said that this was purely his own overthinking, and it can be seen from their ability to protect the crooked old man that these people are definitely different from other pirates.

Itachi knelt down and said to the crooked old man, "Old man, didn't you say you would pass your test?"

"I want to come and try."

"You want to come, okay."

The old man stretched out his dirty hand towards Itachi, and put it on Itachi's shoulder.

Uncle Fried Rice sighed helplessly.

"To be honest, it's useless. Although I don't know how he tested it, but after so many years, no one can pass his test."

Luo also sighed, he was very guilty of this matter now.

If it wasn't for his incomplete information, they wouldn't have come here at all.

However, when several people looked at the crooked old man without any hope, an unexpected scene happened.

The crooked old man raised his dark eyes with difficulty, and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face.

"Congratulations, you passed my test."

"We can really test the topic."

This sentence shocked Uncle Fried Rice and Luo and Freys!

"Old man, you mean? This little brother passed?" Uncle Fried Rice couldn't believe it.

Over the years, he had never heard the old man say this.

"Master, this is! Is there any hope?" Luo said.

"Brother Itachi, you really..." Before he finished speaking, Frass covered his mouth and blinked.

Itachi didn't understand what was going on, the crooked old man had already waved at him.

"Come here, it's clean here."

Itachi was about to start to keep up when Luo stopped him.

"I'm going with you in case..."

The crooked old man spoke suddenly.

"There is no need for anyone to follow."

There was still a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I won't let anyone disturb me and this little brother."

This?

Itachi and Luo looked at each other, and they discussed it.

In the end, the always suspicious Itachi decided to trust the old man for once.

Although he didn't know where this belief came from.

As for Luo and Freys, they went to the trade fair to participate in the commodity trading and auction on the ship as usual, and Itachi went to find them later.
