Paramecia: Toss-Toss Fruit

"Hahaha, you don't need to put too much pressure on yourself. Keep a level head and let things take their course. What you need to do now is become stronger."

Whiteman thought his words had put Xia Luo under pressure, so he hurriedly tried to reassure him.

Xia Luo nodded lightly and gave an "Mm," letting the subject pass.

A Marine admiral? Even a dog wouldn't want that job!!

So Colonel Whiteman's expectations were destined to come to nothing, but Xia Luo absolutely could not say that at a time like this.

Whiteman patted Xia Luo on the shoulder. "All right, go back first. I'll give you one day to pack. Tomorrow morning, I'll arrange for a warship to escort you to Marine Headquarters."

"Okay." Xia Luo nodded, then asked, "By the way, Colonel, can I bring my pet with me?"

"Huh, a pet? What pet? Since when did you have a pet? How come I didn't know?" Whiteman's eyes widened, his face full of bafflement.

Xia Luo rubbed the bridge of his nose. "The gorillas on the back mountain. One of them is pretty interesting, so I plan to bring it along."

Whiteman did not care. "It's just a gorilla. What's the point of bringing it?"

Xia Luo said somewhat awkwardly, "What if it ate a Devil Fruit and isn't weak?"

"Nani?!"

Whiteman stared wide-eyed, beginning to doubt life itself. "You're saying a gorilla ate a Devil Fruit worth over a hundred million? Where did it get one?"

"It picked it up on the mountain. I was going to snatch it and give it to you, but it swallowed it in one bite, so..."

"Fuck! My Devil Fruit!!"

"Come on, take me to it right now. Today, I'm beating the shit out of it!"

Whiteman's eyes instantly turned red. He flew into a rage and dragged Xia Luo outside.

The two headed toward the back mountain.

Along the way, Xia Luo tried several times to speak, but Whiteman cut him off every time.

Finally, they arrived before a particularly punchable-looking gorilla. It stood nearly three meters tall, its entire body covered in muscle. A strip of tiger skin was wrapped around its waist, and it radiated wild ferocity.

Compared to four years ago, it was practically a completely different gorilla. Without looking carefully, no one would recognize it.

At the same time, it looked at Xia Luo, then at Whiteman. Its eyes darted about, carrying an indescribable shrewdness.

"Is that it?"

With red eyes, Whiteman pointed at the gorilla through gritted teeth.

"Yes, it..."

Before Xia Luo could finish, Whiteman cut him off again. "As long as it's the one."

"Don't bother begging for it. Don't worry, I won't beat it to death."

"Uh, then be careful."

"Hehe, it's just a stinking gorilla. So what if it ate a Devil Fruit? A beast is still a beast. Watch how I teach it a lesson!"

Seeing this, Xia Luo said nothing more and silently retreated far away, afraid some filthy thing might get on him.

A few minutes later.

"Ow, fuck! Stop, stop, stop! No more fighting, I surrender!"

"So you're that infamous damned gorilla!"

"Ahhh! Stop fucking throwing that! Throw one more, and I'll fight you to the death!"

"Xia Luo, control your pet!!"

At that moment, Whiteman completely snapped and shouted for Xia Luo.

He was truly about to go mad. The gorilla's bizarre Devil Fruit ability was bad enough, but it was even using "biological weapons" to attack him. It had absolutely no martial ethics!

"Ahem, Poop-Throwing Gorilla, stop. He's one of us." Xia Luo emerged from the nearby woods, struggling not to laugh.

"Gah!"

Poop-Throwing Gorilla tilted its head at Xia Luo, then slowly lowered the lump in its hand.

It happily ran toward Xia Luo.

"Stop! Stay right there!"

"Didn't I fucking warn you not to throw that stuff again? Did you take it as a joke?" Xia Luo's face darkened as arcs of electricity danced across his body. He hoped Poop-Throwing Gorilla could give him a reasonable explanation, or else...

Poop-Throwing Gorilla looked terrified. It frantically gestured with its hands and whimpered, desperately trying to explain itself.

Xia Luo frowned. "You're saying you got used to throwing it?"

Yes, yes, yes!

Poop-Throwing Gorilla nodded hard.

"Hehe, a dog can't stop eating shit. Thunder Beast!"

Boom!

The giant thunder beast brushed past Poop-Throwing Gorilla's body and blasted apart the huge boulder behind it.

Poop-Throwing Gorilla clutched its head and sprawled on the ground, its butt raised as it trembled violently.

"Remember this. If there's a next time, I'll kill you!"

"Wuwuwu!" Poop-Throwing Gorilla nodded frantically, promising it would never do it again.

"Xia Luo, what Devil Fruit did this... uh, Poop-Throwing Gorilla eat? Why couldn't I dodge its attacks? They were like automatic homing attacks. It was absolutely disgusting."

"Um, Colonel, could you stand a little farther away from me?" Xia Luo covered his nose and mouth, looking utterly disgusted.

"You..." Whiteman froze in place, his whole body trembling and his lips pale.

"Poop-Throwing Gorilla ate the Paramecia-type Toss-Toss Fruit. The things it throws move incredibly fast and automatically lock onto enemies. They can't be dodged. You can only take them head-on, or..."

As he spoke, Xia Luo tossed a pebble into the sky, then fired a bolt of lightning from his hand and shattered it. "Intercept them in advance, like this."

"Damn, no wonder it was so disgusting!"

After hearing that, Whiteman felt even worse. If Poop-Throwing Gorilla had not eaten it, that fruit would have been his. Ahhh!

I hate this!!

After a long while, Whiteman said indignantly, "Since it's a Devil Fruit user and has decent potential, you should be able to bring it along. Marine Headquarters probably won't mind. Probably."

"But I still think you shouldn't take it. I'm afraid someone will beat it to death. It's just too punchable!"

Poop-Throwing Gorilla glared in indignation. You're the punchable one! I'm just making reasonable use of every weapon available. Whoever gets hit loses their mind. Who dares say 'free flight' isn't a weapon?!

In the end, Xia Luo still brought Poop-Throwing Gorilla aboard the warship.

Poop-Throwing Gorilla had potential. It was an excellent sniper (✘) thrower (), and it would be quite useful at sea.

Besides, if he did not take it with him, Xia Luo worried no one at the 15th Branch could keep it under control. By then, everyone at the base would suffer.

He did not even dare imagine that scene.

The next day, at the 15th Branch docks.

"Goodbye, Xia Luo!"

"Take care, Xia Luo!"

"Xia Luo only just came back, and now he's leaving again. I really can't bear to see him go."

"Wait, look at that chimpanzee beside Officer Xia Luo. Doesn't it look familiar?"

Now that you mention it, it really does look familiar. I feel like I've seen it somewhere before!"

"Damn, I know! It's Poop-Throwing Gorilla! Its height is different and it's gotten stronger, but I'll never forget that punchable face for the rest of my life!"

"Me too!"

"+1."

At that moment, one victim after another recognized Poop-Throwing Gorilla.

Meanwhile,

Lieutenant Colonel Kana, standing nearby, looked Whiteman over in confusion. Strange, what was with the colonel's expression? He looked like he wanted to kill someone.

And why was he wearing such strong perfume today? It was overwhelmingly fragrant!

Something was off!

After hearing the surrounding discussion, Lieutenant Colonel Kana suddenly understood, as though he had uncovered the truth. He cautiously asked, "Colonel, don't tell me you were also..."

"Get lost!"

Whiteman flew into a rage.

Damn it, why did he have to bring that up?!

All right, that confirmed it. Even the colonel had fallen victim to Poop-Throwing Gorilla. Good thing I never went to the back mountain.

Lieutenant Colonel Kana felt immensely fortunate.

Elsewhere,

On the warship's deck.

Xia Luo watched the dock grow farther and farther away, his heart filled with mixed feelings. There was reluctance over the farewell, joy that his plan had succeeded, guilt toward Whiteman, and more.
