Moke grew even more determined after killing Gild Tesoro.
Then, Moke and Enel returned to the others and handed the Zoan-type Ancient Zoan Bloodthirsty Kong Fruit to Edward Weevil.
Weevil tilted his head and sniffed, looking somewhat confused.
Moke did not explain and simply said, "This is tasty... eat it."
"Tasty? Is it fruit?"
A smile appeared on Weevil's face. He accepted it and stuffed it directly into his mouth. Afterward, he fell into a dazed state.
Moke understood that he was trying to comprehend the suddenly acquired ability.
There was no helping it. This guy's mind was far too simple. It would probably take him quite a while to adjust.
So Moke turned to Baboon King Burns and said, "His Devil Fruit is the Zoan-type Ancient Zoan Bloodthirsty Kong Form. Yours is Kong Form... Just from the names, you can tell they belong to the same category... so you teach him..."
After saying that, he added, "Be patient. He might learn very slowly."
Baboon King Burns nodded. "Don't worry, Captain. I'll teach him properly."
From Champion Island all the way here, he and Weevil had spent some time together. How could he not understand Weevil's peculiar nature?
Moke's gaze swept over his companions one by one before finally settling on Jack the Drought, who lay on the ground. "By now, Gild Tesoro has probably passed the news that we captured Jack alive to Kaido of the Beast Pirates. If we stay here any longer, we'll inevitably have to face the Beast Pirates. And Enel and I need to make a trip to Marine Headquarters first, so... you need to leave this place for the time being."
"Or rather, make Gild Tesoro think you've left. Once the battle between Marine Headquarters and Whitebeard begins, strike immediately and take this place."
