You Went to Mary Geoise to Stock Up, Didn't You?!
"Her luck is really not good," Xi Yan said, rubbing his temples.
Most people are unlucky enough to be eaten by a sea monster or Sea Kings once in their lifetime, but this idiot Camie has been eaten more than twenty times...
I really don't know how she's lived to be so old.
"No..." Shakky hesitated for a moment, then said, "Actually, in a sense, she's also quite lucky."
Seeing the questioning look on Xi Yan's face, Shakky said, "Think about it, if she wasn't lucky, how could she have survived so many captures?"
Xi Yan paused for a moment upon hearing this, then his lips twitched as he said, "That's true."
Although this idiot has been eaten and captured quite a few times, he always manages to escape unscathed, doesn't he?
For example, this time, although she was captured by the Slave Capture Group, he ultimately rescued her...
Thinking about this, Xi Yan didn't know what to say.
"And then?" Shakky asked.
"And then..."
Xi Yan thought for a moment and said, "After sending Camie and the other two into the sea, I used Shadow Clone and Transformation Technique to transform into their appearances, and then sailed the slave-catching ship to the Port of Mary Geoise."
"Then, using their identities, they successfully infiltrated the outskirts of Mary Geoise."
"Just when I was considering whether to change my identity, a Celestial Dragons came knocking on my door."
Upon hearing this, Shakky burst out laughing.
"So you used your hypnotic ability to subdue this Celestial Dragons?!"
"Yes." Xi Yan nodded and said, "With a Celestial Dragons as a puppet, things will be much easier."
"Using the identity of Celestial Dragons, I successfully entered the inner city of Mary Geoise."
Recalling what he had done before, Xi Yan's lips unconsciously began to curl upwards.
"So... you took all these things from the Celestial Dragons ' Treasure Vault?" Shakky asked, glancing at the bags on the ground.
"Yes, that's right."
Xi Yan picked up the bag, opened it, and said, "I killed a total of seven Celestial Dragons Celestial Dragons and looted their Treasure Vault."
"And these seven Devil Fruit were found in those seven Treasure Vault."
As they spoke, Xi Yan placed the seven boxes containing Devil Fruit on the table, then opened them, revealing the Devil Fruit inside.
Glancing at the seven Devil Fruit, Shakky remarked, "Did you go to Mary Geoise to buy them?"
Most people would be incredibly lucky to encounter even one Devil Fruit in their lifetime, but this kid Xi Yan got seven at once...
That's absolutely outrageous.
"This is nothing," Xi Yan said with a chuckle. "The Devil Fruit are just the small part; the most important things are the treasure and Beli —those are the real big prizes!"
Judging from the money he exchanged in Water Seven, he must have made at least tens of billions in Mary Geoise this time!
It's safe to say that from today onwards, the Straw Hat Pirates will no longer be short of money!
Even if Luffy ate his fill, he still couldn't possibly eat all that money.
Shakky paused for a moment upon hearing this, then said with some emotion, "You've really struck it rich this time."
The wealth of seven or eight Celestial Dragons —how much would that be?
It must be worth tens of billions, right?
That's enough money to buy two Roger.
"We definitely made a fortune," Xi Yan nodded, "It's just that dealing with all that stuff is a bit of a hassle."
After saying that, Xi Yan immediately shut his mouth and stared at Shakky without blinking.
Seeing this, Shakky rolled her eyes and said, "If you want me to help you, just say so. Why are you staring at me like that?"
"Hehe, I was just worried about causing some trouble..."
"What's the trouble?"
Shakky picked up another cigarette and said, "If I can't solve this after all these years in this business, I might as well quit."
She had nine ways to handle these gold and silver jewels!
Nine types, you understand?
"Then I'll have to trouble you Shakky-jie," Xi Yan said.
After saying that, Xi Yan stepped forward and lit the cigarette in Shakky's mouth, which made Shakky laugh.
"You little rascal..."
Shakky took a drag of her cigarette, shook her head, and then smiled, "Okay, I'll take it."
"However... I need to take 20%."
Perhaps worried that Xi Yan might think she was being shady, Shakky explained, "This 20% is for operational purposes, not for my personal profit."
Even if she wanted to dispose of the stolen goods, she would need funds.
Bribing superiors and subordinates, cultivating relationships, hiring skilled individuals to transport the treasure—all of these require spending money.
The more treasure that needs to be handled, the higher the costs will be for Shakky, so asking for 20% of the money is not unreasonable.
"That won't do," Xi Yan shook his head.
Shakky raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and said, "What, you kid, are you planning to make me lose money and do the work?"
Based on her understanding of Xi Yan... he wasn't that kind of person, so why would he say something like that this time?
"No, no, no, you've misunderstood, Shakky-jie." Xi Yan shook his head and said, "What I mean is, let's split it 30/70."
Shakky was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then smiled and said, "You're willing to add another ten percent?"
"If the transaction amount is 10 billion, that's 1 billion Beli. Have you thought it through?"
One billion Beli is no small sum!
Even if she wanted to earn a billion Beli, it wouldn't be an easy task.
"No matter what, I'm not going to let you work for free," Xi Yan said.
Seeing that Shakky was about to say something more, Xi Yan said, "I might need Shakky-jie's help to get intelligence in the future, so please accept this as payment for the intelligence in advance."
You still need to maintain proper social etiquette; otherwise, even the best relationships will gradually become distant.
Shakky opened her mouth upon hearing this, then shook her head helplessly and said, "You... you..."
"Alright, I'll accept this one, Sister Cheng."
"That's good."
Xi Yan nodded upon hearing this, then chuckled and said, "But I won't give you the money for the White Den Den Mushi ~"
Shakky rolled her eyes and said, "You've already let me earn so much, how could I possibly ask you for money again?"
She was indeed a little greedy, but that was towards outsiders.
It's naturally different with our own people.
"OK."
Xi Yan nodded, then glanced at the house behind him and said, "Should we put the treasure there?"
This time, the treasures he planned to have Shakky handle were mostly antiques and collectibles that were difficult to circulate.
These items accounted for about one-third of the total received goods.
The remaining items were easier to sell, so Xi Yan wasn't in a hurry to deal with them.
As for Beli...
They looted the Treasure Vault of Seven Celestial Dragons and obtained approximately tens of billions of Beli!
These Beli were spent directly, so Xi Yan didn't plan to use them.
"Should we take it out now...?"
Shakky glanced back at her warehouse, thought for a moment, and said, "How much stuff do you want to take out?"
How big is your warehouse?
"I also have a basement below, which is about two hundred square meters," Shakky said, tapping her cigarette ash.
Xi Yan pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded and said, "Then I should be able to let go."
"I guess..." Shakky's lips twitched as she said, "How much good stuff have you gotten your hands on...?"
Even a space of 200 square meters couldn't get Xi Yan to give a definite answer. Could this kid have taken the Celestial Dragons ' floor tiles with him?
"You'll find out soon enough," Xi Yan chuckled.
"OK."
Shakky nodded, then glanced at the Devil Fruit on the table and asked, "So, what do you plan to do with these Devil Fruit?"
"If you don't want it, I can sell it for you too."
Although these Devil Fruit have a higher chance of being discovered, there will be buyers willing to take the risk to purchase them if the price is right.
Wait a minute.
Xi Yan took out a Illustrated Handbook from his Ninja Tool Bag and said, "Let me look at the Devil Fruit Illustrated Handbook first."
He hasn't looked at the Devil Fruit Illustrated Handbook yet, so he needs to identify them first.
Looking at the Devil Fruit Illustrated Handbook that Xi Yan had placed on the table, Shakky said, "I didn't expect you to have even gotten your hands on something like this."
"Wow, the records are really detailed!"
Getting such detailed Illustrated Handbook Devil Fruit outside is no easy feat!
It has to be said, Xi Yan is really lucky.
"It's something exclusive to the Celestial Dragons, so of course it's detailed," Xi Yan said with a smile. "If you want it, you can take it and make a copy."
"That would be wonderful!" Shakky said with a smile.
Such a detailed Illustrated Handbook Devil Fruit was of great help to Shakky, so Shakky didn't stand on ceremony with Xi Yan.
Xi Yan nodded, then began searching for the names of these Devil Fruit according to the Devil Fruit Illustrated Handbook.
"Zoan - Insect Insect Fruit - Mantis Form..."
"Zoan - Pig Pig Fruit - Wild Boar Form..."
"Paramecia Fruit - Brick Brick Fruit..."
"No way, what kind of garbage is this?" Xi Yan said, speechless.
He had originally hoped to obtain a few powerful Devil Fruit from Mary Geoise, which would bolster Nami and the others' fighting strength.
The result... several of them were garbage?
"It's Devil Fruit after all," Shakky said with a chuckle. "One of them can sell for at least 100 million Beli."
If it were auctioned off, the price of Devil Fruit would increase several times over!
Xi Yan thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That makes sense."
Xi Yan then continued searching for other Devil Fruit, but ultimately only found the name of Devil Fruit.
Cloud Cloud Fruit!
That's right, it's the first Devil Fruit that Xi Yan saw!
"I didn't expect this to actually be the Cloud Cloud Fruit." Looking at the description of the Devil Fruit's ability, Xi Yan stroked his chin and said, "It's a Logia."
This Devil Fruit is the perfect match for Nami, since that girl's favorite thing to do in battle is to use the weather.
If she eats this Devil Fruit, she will have the ability to create clouds using her own powers.
Whatever falls from the sky will be entirely up to her!
Most importantly... clouds can fly, right?
With the addition of flight ability, this Internal War God's survivability has also increased!
"Cloud Cloud Fruit, huh?"
Shakky took the Devil Fruit Illustrated Handbook, glanced at it, and then smiled, "It's a Logia, the ability is pretty good."
After putting down the Devil Fruit Illustrated Handbook, Shakky looked at Xi Yan and said, "Are you planning to eat this Devil Fruit yourself?"
"I definitely won't eat it, because this stuff will only weaken me," Xi Yan said, shaking his head.
He can create cumulonimbus clouds using Ninjutsu, so there's no need for him to develop a weakness for seawater.
"Forehead..."
Shakky thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's true."
Xi Yan's abilities are already monstrous enough; there's really no need for him to eat another Devil Fruit.
Then, Shakky said, "So you're planning to sell this Devil Fruit?"
After speaking, Shakky paused for a moment, then showed a regretful expression and said, "To be honest, it's really a pity to sell Logia ability..."
Logia abilities are extremely rare; even she hadn't encountered many, so she felt it was better to keep this one for herself.
"I definitely won't sell it," Xi Yan said. "This is for my companions."
"Partner?"
"Um."
Xi Yan nodded and said, "My purpose in taking these Devil Fruit is to increase the strength of my companions."
Once the World Government learns that he is still alive, it will definitely send people to hunt them down.
At that time, those who are weak may be in danger, so it is necessary to strengthen our strength.
These Devil Fruit are gifts that Xi Yan prepared for his companions!
"To increase our strength...?"
Shakky thought about what Xi Yan had been doing recently, then nodded and said, "That's indeed the right thing to do."
Two years from now, the World Government will definitely be hunting down the Straw Hat Pirates, so it's not a bad idea to increase the crew's strength.
Then, Shakky said, "Then you can keep this Cloud Cloud Fruit."
"Um."
He naturally wanted to keep this Devil Fruit that could enhance his companions' strength, as it would increase their chances of survival.
"What about the other abilities?"
After putting the lid back on, Shakky looked at the other three Devil Fruit and asked, "What are the abilities of these three?"
"Have no idea."
"Have no idea?"
Shakky paused for a moment, then said with some surprise, "Even the World Government's Devil Fruit Illustrated Handbook doesn't record these Devil Fruit?"
"Yes."
Xi Yan nodded and said, "I've searched through this Devil Fruit Illustrated Handbook, but I couldn't find any record of these three Devil Fruit, so I have no way of knowing what their abilities are."
Shakky pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then said, "It seems these three are Devil Fruit that have only appeared in recent years."
"In recent years?"
Xi Yan asked with some surprise, "Will there be any new Devil Fruit?"
"Yes."
Shakky nodded and said, "Although I don't know where these Devil Fruit come from, it's true that new abilities appear every now and then."
As she spoke, Shakky glanced at the three unknown Devil Fruit and said, "No one knows what kind of power these newly appeared Devil Fruit have, so we can only gamble."
"Winning the bet grants immense power, while losing turns you into a hopeless landlubber."
"Is he still a landlubber who hasn't changed much...?"
Recalling Chopper's Devil Fruit ability, Xi Yan muttered to himself, "If I remember correctly, Chopper ate Zoan Devil Fruit— the Human-Human Fruit —in human form..."
If a person ate this Devil Fruit, wouldn't they be completely unaffected?
Thinking of this, Xi Yan fell into deep thought.
