SFS Chapter 344: Battle for the Devil Fruit (1)
Chapter 344: Battle for the Devil Fruit (1)
At the center of the training island, upon seeing Zel and the other two arrive, everyone who had already arrived gathered around.
Zel didn't keep anyone in suspense. In front of everyone, he waved his arm and a table full of devil fruits appeared.
Looking at the devil fruit on the table, everyone was shocked except those who had guessed it long ago.
Especially Tori Toma, she knew how valuable Devil Fruits were, but she didn't expect Zell to have so many.
"Everyone, have you seen these devil fruits?"
"These are ancient species, superhuman types, natural types, and mythical beast types. Each one is enough to drive people crazy."
"Now, for the future of the Kingdom of Adrien, I need your strength!"
"You are all people I am optimistic about. I hope you will not let these devil fruits down."
"Everything, for the Kingdom of Adrien!"
Zell's passionate speech successfully aroused everyone's emotions. Led by Andrew, almost everyone clasped their right fists and shouted loudly.
"Everything, for the Kingdom of Adrien!"
The oath rang out, leaving Toritoma and Kojiro stunned.
However, the two of them adapted quickly and immediately followed the others in clasping their right fists.
"Everything, for the Kingdom of Adrien!"
Zel nodded in satisfaction, motioned for everyone to put their hands down, and continued speaking.
"Next, I will hold a competition. If two people are interested in the same devil fruit, then their strength will speak for itself."
Zel waved his hand and took back all the devil fruits, clearing a competition area for everyone.
Everyone also retreated to the stands on both sides, preparing for the next battle.
About an hour later, Zel was about to take out his first devil fruit when a loud voice was heard.
"Dad, why didn't you tell me about this excitement?"
A Pidgeot flew across the sky, and Dekkar fell from the sky.
The next moment, a portal opened next to Zel, and Rorschach, Gavin, Carmen, Nyx, Cohen, and Cassio walked out.
"Why are you here?"
Zell didn't tell the children about this, but they all knew it.
"I told them." Kalina walked over to Casio and touched his head.
"Mom, I'm an adult now." Casio looked at Kalina with resentment.
"Stinky brat, no matter how old you are, I am still your mother."
Karina ruffled Casio's short blue hair vigorously with a happy smile on her face.
Seeing this, Zel didn't say anything, it was just a matter of a few more spectators.
He just spread out his hand, and a banana-shaped devil fruit appeared in his hand.
Countless blood gushed out, wrapped around the devil fruit and flew into the air.
Just as everyone's attention was drawn to the devil fruit, Zel's voice rang out.
"Animal - Mama Fruit - Ancient Species - Claw Beast Form. The user's physique will be greatly enhanced and they will gain a pair of sharp claws. Their limbs will be long and slender, and they can run at an extremely fast speed."
Zel briefly explained the Clawmon's abilities so that everyone would feel more familiar with them.
A moment later, a man with a ponytail and long arms jumped out.
The man's name is Archie. He is a member of the Long-Hand Tribe. He became a slave when he was young. He was rescued by Bear and Ginny and entered the Royal Academy to study.
Although he was not the chief of that session, he was quite capable and was noticed by Zel.
Unexpectedly, after a minute, no one jumped out.
"Anyone else?"
After Zell asked this question, the whole audience fell silent.
Seeing that no one wanted to fight for it, Zel was not surprised. After all, the Claw Beast was not suitable for everyone.
With a thought, the blood dragged the devil fruit and flew in front of Aqi.
"It's yours."
Archie was confused. He thought he was going to have a big battle, but he didn't expect to get the devil fruit so easily.
"Thank you, Master Zell!"
Bowing to Zel, Archie took the devil fruit and bit into it.
The next moment, a nauseous feeling rushed to the top of his head, and he opened his mouth to spit out the devil fruit.
Archie reacted immediately and covered his mouth, swallowing the devil fruit with great effort.
As Archie swallowed the devil fruit, his body began to change. Yellow hair grew on his head, his mouth became elongated, and he turned into a horse face.
The arm, which originally had two joints, became even longer, and sharp claws grew from the fingers, reflecting a cold light.
"Okay, after the competition, you'll have a chance to adapt..."
Zell stopped Aki who was about to experiment with new abilities and took out the second devil fruit from the system warehouse.
"Animal type - Bug Bug Fruit - Ancient species - Scythe form, has wings, extremely strong vitality..."
Zel was carefully reading the Book of Omniscience and introducing the abilities of Feijian to everyone, when he suddenly heard Dekker's voice in his ears.
"It's just a cockroach."
The corner of Zel's mouth twitched, but he did not deny that Feijian was indeed a prehistoric cockroach.
"Shut up." Zel said seriously.
Decarte immediately shut his mouth and dared not move.
About a minute later, no one chose the Higanbana Fruit, and Zel was not surprised. He immediately switched to another devil fruit.
"Animal - Bird-Bird Fruit - Ancient Species - Terror Bird Form. The Terror Bird has hard leg bones and strong muscles. It runs very fast. Its sharp claws can easily tear apart the enemy. It is very suitable for those who are good at kicking skills."
As soon as the introduction about the terror bird was finished, two people jumped out.
One of them was much taller than the average human, with legs as long as branches. He was wearing a black suit and looked taciturn.
The other one was two meters tall, with standard human appearance, slender body, wearing leather clothes, exuding a wildness.
The two are Skerniya of the Long-legged Clan and Rosen, the 12th Chief of the Royal Academy.
"Is it finally time to fight?"
Seeing two people appear at the same time, Descartes immediately became interested.
"Cohen, do you know the information about these two people?"
Rorschach looked at Cohen, curious about their identities.
He had just returned to Sky Island not long ago and was not very familiar with the talents that had appeared on Sky Island in recent years.
They will be fighting together in the future, so he still wants to know more about them.
"That tall man is called Skerniya. He's from the Long Legs Tribe. He was once a slave and was rescued by a bear. He graduated from the Royal Academy in 1496 and is skilled in kicking."
"The man in the leather suit is called Rosen. He is the twelfth chief of the Royal Academy. He has mastered the six styles of the navy, especially the shaving, moon step, and storm kick. He is very powerful."
"But there's a certain age gap between the two, so I'm not sure who will win or lose."
Cohen's explanation was comprehensive, and Rorschach had a general understanding of the two men's origins.
After about a minute, seeing that no one else jumped out, Zel announced.
"Game start!"
