Pirate: As a Celestial Dragon, I am too handsome

"Hey, hey, what do you mean, have you found the slippery fruit?" Lorne took the phone and picked up the receiver and asked.

"Well... I found it, but something unexpected happened." Fu said with a slight hesitation.

"What accident?" Lorne frowned subconsciously when he heard the word "accident": "Did you bring not enough money?"

He thought to himself, before he went out, he gave him a full [-] million Baileys, so it wouldn't be enough to buy a mere Superman-type slippery fruit, right?

"The money is enough. The starting bid in the auction house was 1000 million beli. When I shouted 7000 million, no one bid with me anymore."

"You won it for only 7000 million?"

This was somewhat beyond Lorne's expectations.

He originally thought that this fruit, which had pretty good fighting ability and could make people's skin smoother and more beautiful, would cost 7000 to [-] million Baileys, but he didn't expect [-] million. That's enough.

It seemed that the 1505 Pele was far more valuable than he had imagined before.

Unlike more than ten years later, when bounties were easily over a billion beli, supernovae were everywhere, which was really a sign of severe inflation.

"Yes, it is indeed 7000 million." Fu's voice continued to come from the phone bug: "But just when I took a photo of the fruit and was about to pay, the fruit disappeared."

"Flying away?"

silence.

Lorne's mouth twitched, he already had a premonition that bad news would reach his ears.

"I'm really sorry. At that time, a thief broke into the auction house's vault and stole most of the goods. Among them was the slippery fruit I just bid for." Fu said in a low tone.

It can be seen from the way the phone bug squinted his eyelids that he was indeed in a very depressed mood at the moment.

"What about the thief? Have you caught him?" Lorne continued to ask.

"Caught it. With the help of my team, the guy was caught in a mountain forest the next night. The only regret is that although most of the auction items were recovered, Huahua The fruit... was eaten by that guy."

"Forehead.."

eat..

eaten?

Lorne opened his mouth, and for a moment he really didn't know what to say.

There is no doubt that he is feeling even more disappointed than Fulai at this moment.

It would be okay if the fruit was just stolen. At least he could continue to use CP0's intelligence capabilities to continue investigating the whereabouts of the slippery fruit.

At most, it's just a matter of delaying it for a while longer and continuing to live with this ugly face.

But who knows...

"Who ate it?" Taking a deep breath and calming down his uncomfortable mood a little, Lorne asked still unwillingly.

He meant just in case.

What if... the guy who ate the slippery fruit was a heinous guy?

So if I kill him, will the Slippery Fruit reappear somewhere in this world?

What's more, according to the plot in the original work, when Luffy first went to sea more than ten years later, wasn't this slippery fruit eaten by a female pirate named Arrita?

From this point of view, if the plot does not cause a butterfly effect due to his appearance, it means that the former host who has eaten the Slippery Fruit will only have about 16 years left to live at most. ?

Is it possible that I really have to wait for another sixteen or seventeen years, until that guy is dead, before I can hope to get rid of my current appearance?

he thought to himself.

"It's a woman named Rebecca Youla, with a bounty of 550 million. She lives in several towns in the South China Sea all year round and specializes in stealing for a living."

"A woman..."

There is a bounty on his head and he is still a thief, which means there is still some hope.

So after thinking over and over again, Lorne gave Fu this order: "Go investigate her life story and tell me everything in detail. Do you understand?"

"Understood." Fu replied: "Then...this woman named Rebecca?"

"After the investigation is completed, bring the people back to me as well."

"Yes, Lord Lokrien."

...

"Hiss~~hoo!"

"Cough cough cough cough..."

Lorne, who had never smoked a cigarette even once in his two lives, immediately fell to the ground after taking a puff of his cigar and began to cough violently.

"Lorne, what's wrong with you?"

Verinsa, who was holding a fruit plate in her hand, saw Lorne suddenly coughing violently. She immediately ran over with a worried look on her face, patted his back and said, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"I'm fine, cough!"

Lorne, who was choked so much that his eyes were moist, sat up and cursed in his mind, "Someone likes to smoke this B thing?" Then he looked at Verinsa and said: "Verinsa, be honest. Say, what do you think I look like?"

Verintha: (⊙_⊙)?

"How do you look?"

"It's just... um... do you think I look good?"

"Forehead.."

She didn't expect Lorn to ask such a question at all. Verinsa was silent for about seven or eight seconds, then looked at Lorn squarely with her big eyes, and answered him seriously: "I feel that a person's appearance is not the most important, the most important thing is his heart..."

"I think your soul is more beautiful than most people in this world. In Verinsha's heart, you are the most beautiful person."

Lorne: "..."

Looking at Verinsa's extremely sincere eyes, Lorne really didn't know how to refute.

No, I asked you if I was good-looking, but you changed the subject and talked about the beauty of my soul.

Don’t you still think I’m ugly?

Thinking of this, Lorne said "Wow" and burst into tears.

Verinsa suddenly became a little overwhelmed.

He took a step forward and hugged Lorne gently, trying to give him some comfort.

And I don't know if it was her imagination, but Lorne, who was "crying" in her arms, seemed to be shaking even more violently.

"Hey Hey.."

"Ok?"

Lorne, who was taking a bath in the hot spring, glanced at the information on his profile page, and doubts about taking a rest suddenly arose in his mind.

"Minus one?"

He seems to remember that at the beginning, his appearance attribute was -5?

Why is it that just over half a year has passed and the number is almost positive?

He looked down at the reflection in the hot spring water in confusion.

I seem to be much more pleasing to the eye than when I first traveled through time?
