Vic isn't the type to keep Devil Fruit around for the New Year; they're just lifeless objects that only have value when eaten. Vic felt bad for not letting Olvia eat this Devil Fruit Devil Fruit suited her so perfectly. Perhaps this was a preordained encounter!
After hearing Vic's words, Olvia looked up and stared intently at Vic, her eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions.
She didn't say anything more. Vic had already gone this far. She reached out and took the Devil Fruit from Vic's hand, completely forgetting the rumors that Devil Fruit were worse than shit. She put the Devil Fruit to her mouth and ate it in big bites. The disgusting taste was suppressed by a huge determination.
"Eat it all, don't waste it!"
While grilling the meat, Vic kept reminding him, whether out of a wicked sense of humor or some unseen premonition, Vic insisted on eating the Devil Fruit whole.
Although you only need to eat one bite to gain the ability, there are no side effects even if you eat the whole thing, right? It just means the nausea will last a little longer, but that's really not a big deal.
However, if not consuming the entire Devil Fruit ultimately hinders the development of its abilities, then it would truly be a loss. Since consuming it all wouldn't affect anything, and you've already taken ninety-nine steps, why gamble on this one more?
Olvia was very obedient and didn't respond to Vic's words. She ate the entire Devil Fruit in one go, even licking up the juice that dripped onto her hands.
Vic quickly placed the roasted meat on the plate in front of Olvia. Eating something delicious could effectively alleviate the lingering smell of feces; Vic was quite thoughtful.
Having already expended energy healing her scars, Olvia no longer felt full and could continue eating solid food. If she ate meat first and then the Devil Fruit, Vic was afraid she would throw up.
"Come on, everyone, have some of what you want to eat. There's still plenty of meat left."
After Vic and Olvia finished eating the meat and suppressed the taste of the Devil Fruit, he called Rebecca and the others over to eat. Olvia had finished her more important business, and it was time to reward the others.
Ain was the first to rush over, eating meat while glancing at Olvia's face. Olvia blushed at the gaze of a child younger than her own daughter, and only calmed down after Rebecca and the others arrived.
Before long, a huge piece of fish fin meat was devoured by the group. Rebecca was still somewhat unsatisfied and even ran to the kitchen to get more meat, but when she returned to the deck, Vic had already packed everything away.
Vic has just woken up and has a lot to do. Even the Mystery Fruit from February was eaten by those ferocious beasts, which made Vic, who Awakening Conqueror's Haki, feel a little heartbroken.
I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back soon.
Vic gave everyone a few instructions and then vanished from the deck like Inazuma. Having been unconscious for so long and without contact with the outside world, he didn't want those who cared about him to remain worried.
I've already called the old man; he doesn't know how to face him now, but Gion. As for the other friends and elders, I'll call them when I get back.
In a sea area of New World, a warship is sailing, but the highest commander of the warship is nowhere to be seen on the deck. This has been the case for the past two months, as long as they haven't encountered pirates.
At this moment, Gion, the supreme commander, was drinking heavily in her cabin. She couldn't sleep at all without being drunk, and Vic's bounty posters were her drinking snack. She would drink while staring at the people on the wanted posters with dazed eyes, looking quite pitiful.
" Vic! You're here! No, I must be hallucinating from drinking too much. I just missed you so much! Hehehe!"
Gion looked at the familiar figure that suddenly appeared before her and murmured to herself, "This is the person I most wanted to see, but now that I see him, I can't believe it's real. I just think it's because I drank too much and my longing has made me hallucinate."
Gion chuckled foolishly at Vic, a smile tinged with endless bitterness and self-mockery.
Seeing Gion like this, Vic felt very sorry for her and immediately went over to hug Gion. Vic's Logia ability allows him to enter Gion's room without alerting anyone, which he had done on previous occasions when he met Gion.
Vic was now quite adept at it. He arrived quietly and witnessed this scene, along with the drunken murmurs. Vic could guess what kind of life Gion had been going through lately. Not receiving any news from him, he naturally had all sorts of wild thoughts in his mind, especially for someone he cared about!
" Vic! Is that really you? I must be hallucinating, but what's with this incredibly realistic touch? Did you drink too much today?"
Gion reached out and stroked Vic's cheek, murmuring to herself. Her hazy eyes were fixed on Vic's face, unwilling to look away for even a moment. She had lost it for so long, and even if it was just an illusion, she wanted to have a moment of it while she was drunk.
"Of course it's me! It really is me. I've come to see you. Don't worry about my safety anymore. With my current strength, there aren't many people who can keep me here. Relax!"
Vic spoke softly and gently. He was afraid that if he didn't appear for a long time, Gion would have wild thoughts and do something crazy. Fortunately, Gion didn't act on emotion, but she must have had a lot of worries and anxieties. Vic could tell from the large pile of empty bottles in the corner. Even her sense of justice might have been shaken.
"No! It must be that I'm hallucinating from missing you too much. You're a product of my imagination. With Vic's strength, it's impossible that he had no information at all!"
He would definitely come to see me if he had nothing to do, but two months have passed and he hasn't shown up. He must be trying to cut ties with me.
Our identities are now opposed. He must hate the Navy now. There's no way we can be together anymore. Since you're just a hallucination, even if I can't have you in reality, I'll have you in my hallucinations!
Gion's expression remained melancholic; she still didn't believe Vic's words. If it was an illusion, it wasn't unreasonable for them to be able to converse.
Gion finished speaking, she pressed her lips to Vic's lips, kissing him awkwardly. Then she became bolder and pushed Vic to the edge of the bed and pinned him down on it.
Vic felt somewhat helpless. Seeing Gion's reckless attitude, he felt extremely guilty and lost his previous resolve. He slowly took the initiative.
Previously, he had always satisfied Gion with his abilities, but this time he truly went at it with Gion again and again. With their physical constitutions, even though it was Gion's first time in the real sense, he could still press on her one after another, and Vic was forced to become her mount.
