After Qin Ming learned that Village Chief was willing to give him the Devil Fruit, his heart fluctuated. After careful consideration, he finally decided to eat the Devil Fruit.
Previously, Qin Ming wanted to reject Luffy's invitation mainly because he wasn't strong enough. If he went out to sea with Luffy, he would only be a burden.
However, if Qin Ming ate the Demon Fruit, his strength might not increase greatly in a short period of time, but his future growth would have a lot of room for improvement.
After all, the power of the Devil's Fruit would vary according to the user's level of development.
Qin Ming was considered a very persistent person. He thought that after eating this devil fruit, he would work hard. As the saying goes, hard work can make up for his incompetence. He didn't believe that he would always be a fighter.
After Village Chief took out the Devil Fruit, Qin Ming saw this fruit for the first time.
"Eat it."
The hunchbacked village chief smiled and handed the Devil Fruit to Qin Ming.
"What kind of ability does this Demon Fruit have?”
In the darkness, Qin Ming took the Devil Fruit and felt that it was light in his hand.
The soft moonlight shone on the pitch-black Devil Fruit, reflecting a faint white light.
"I don't know the details, but the person who gave me the Devil's Fruit said that it's very special.”
Village Chief coughed and said to Qin Ming.
A very special devil fruit?
If this demon fruit was just an ordinary item, then there was no need for the Nether King to come to the East Sea to deal with it.
Qin Ming had asked the village chief about the person who entrusted the Devil's Fruit to the village. According to the description of the village chief, it should be Riley himself.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Ming finally bit down on the Devil Fruit.
As soon as he ate the fruit, Qin Ming felt that the taste was too bad. It was the worst thing he had ever eaten, making him want to vomit.
However, Qin Ming still endured the disgust and swallowed the Devil Fruit.
"What are you guys doing here?"
Qin Ming had just taken a bite of the Devil Fruit when he heard Luffy's voice.
"Eh? Isn't this the Devil's Fruit? This kind of thing is very disgusting. You don't have to hide and eat it secretly, right? I definitely won't snatch it from you.”
When Luffy saw the Devil Fruit in Qin Ming's hand, his interest immediately dropped.
Qin Ming looked at Luffy's expression and knew that this glutton probably thought that he and the village chief were hiding to eat something good, so he came over to take a look.
"You ate this demon fruit?"
Luffy took the devil fruit from Qin Ming's hand and said in surprise,""What's with this Devil Fruit? I can't feel its weight at all. It's different from the ones I ate before.”
"I also find it strange. After I ate this demon fruit, my body didn't seem to have any changes.”
Qin Ming was speechless as he looked at Luffy tossing the Devil's Fruit around. This guy was treating the Devil's Fruit like a toy.
Luffy threw the fruit into the air with one hand, while his other hand reached out and slapped the fruit to the other side.
Just as Luffy was about to grab the floating Demon Fruit, a strong gust of wind blew past, and the floating Demon Fruit flew away, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.
"I'm sorry!"
Luffy said to Qin Ming as he watched the Devil Fruit being blown further and further away by the wind.
'F * ck, luckily I ate a bite of the Devil's Fruit first. Otherwise, the Devil's Fruit would definitely have been played by this scammer.'
Qin Ming rejoiced in his heart, but then he remembered that after eating the Devil Fruit, his body was still the same as before. There was no change at all. This made him nervous. Could it be that he ate a fake Devil Fruit?
The Devil's Fruit was divided into three types: the superhuman type, the animal type, and the natural type. Logically speaking, after eating the Devil's Fruit, after a short period of time, he should be able to know what ability he had obtained.
However, Qin Ming had eaten the Devil Fruit for almost five minutes, and his body was still the same as usual, making him feel that something was wrong.
"Why do you look so troubled? Now that everyone is happily attending the banquet, you should come and play too.”
Luffy said as he pulled Qin Ming and ran towards the place where the villagers gathered. At this time, the banquet was in full swing, and it was very lively. There were all kinds of songs and laughter. Under the influence of this happy atmosphere, Qin Ming's originally depressed mood was slightly better.
Village Chief looked at Qin Ming and muttered to himself,""Lei Li, you definitely didn't expect that I would give the Devil Fruit away less than two years after you gave it to me. It's not our time anymore. The time when I rode the ocean with Roger and the others seemed to have happened yesterday.”
At this point, the village chief's originally bent back suddenly straightened up, making him look more powerful. His small eyes stared at Qin Ming: "Little guy, the Devil Fruit you ate is the most special existence among the Superman Devil Fruits. It's called the Fruit of Growth. How much power you can unleash from this fruit will depend on yourself.”
After saying this, the village chief returned to his hunchbacked appearance. He supported himself with his walking stick and slowly walked back to his house.
The banquet held in the village lasted until three in the morning. After Qin Ming came to this world, it was the first time he had so much fun.
It could be said that with Luffy, the person who loved to hold banquets, there was no way that everyone could not have a good time.
After the banquet ended, Qin Ming didn't return to his room. He just lay on the ground with Luffy and the others and fell asleep.
There was also a large group of villagers sleeping on the ground. Many of them had happy and satisfied smiles on their faces. It was obvious that they were having a great time at the banquet.
Listening to Luffy snoring loudly beside him, Qin Ming gradually calmed down from the joy of the banquet.
Sigh!
Qin Ming, who was lying on the ground, sighed and looked at the crescent moon hanging high in the sky. He thought that after eating the Devil Fruit, he could fly out to sea with Lu Fei, but looking at the current situation, it was still not possible.
After eating the Demon Fruit, he did not even know what ability he had obtained.
In other words, even if Qin Ming wanted to train and strengthen his Demon Fruit ability, he couldn't do it.
To put it bluntly, Qin Ming didn't even know what he should do. How was he supposed to train the Devil's Fruit?
Qin Ming was still thinking about something when Luffy, who was sleeping next to him, turned around and put his big foot on his stomach.
F * ck, this guy's sleeping posture was really bad.
Qin Ming had just had this thought when he felt his entire body tighten, and he actually couldn't move.
It turned out that Luffy was hugging Qin Ming tightly with both hands, and he was drooling as he slept,""Meat, don't run."
This time, Qin Ming was completely embarrassed.
What the f * ck, you ate so much meat tonight, and you still want to eat it even in your dreams. I really don't know how your stomach grew. Is it because it's rubber that your stomach is elastic?
Qin Ming was speechless. According to his estimation, Luffy had eaten at least a hundred kilograms of meat during the banquet. Who knew that this foodie was still not satisfied? He even dreamed of eating meat.
Most importantly, don't hug me so tightly. You even extended your arms. People who don't know might think that we're gay!
Qin Ming felt extremely miserable. After coming to One Piece's world, the first person he had intimate contact with wasn't a beauty, but the foodie Luffy.
Just like that, Qin Ming and Luffy fell asleep in each other's arms.
After an unknown amount of time, the sky was already slightly white. Qin Ming did not sleep for the entire night. He wanted to ignore everything and go out to sea with Luffy for an adventure, but he was also worried that his strength was not enough and would be tiring.
These two different thoughts kept popping up in Qin Ming's mind, causing him to be extremely conflicted.
As a man, he should be more straightforward. If he could do it, then do it. If he couldn't, then forget it. Why was he being so wishy-washy?
Of course, Qin Ming knew this. If it was something else, he would immediately make a decision, but the decision he made now could completely change his future. It was an extremely important turning point in his life.
Facing such a situation, Qin Ming hesitating wasn't anything strange.
At this moment, Qin Ming's mood was similar to the feeling of filling in his choice after the college entrance examination on Earth. Whether he should choose or not, how he should choose, it made him feel like going crazy.
Motherf * cker!
Looking at the sky gradually brightening and the sun about to rise, Qin Ming steeled his heart. He had always been an ordinary person and lived an ordinary life. Could it be that after he came to One Piece's world, he would continue to live that kind of life that was as plain as water?
No, I want to make a change!
Since I met Luffy, and he even invited me to go out to sea, am I really a coward that doesn't even have the courage to go out to sea?
I've eaten the Demon Fruit, and I'm different from before. Although I don't know what ability it is, I'll definitely understand it in the future.
Even if my current strength is not enough, I can train. I can train with all my might, just like fishing. I didn't know anything at the beginning, but now I've become an outstanding fisherman.
I can definitely do it!
If I don't go out to sea, do you think I'll still be the village chief in this village?
This is not what I want!
Qin Ming became more and more determined to follow Lu Fei out to sea. The hesitant expression on his face was gradually replaced by determination. His slightly dim eyes revealed a light that had never been seen before. It was the kind of gaze that only people who had identified their target and bravely advanced forward would have.
The fatty who got up to pee happened to pass by Qin Ming and inadvertently saw that Qin Ming's eyes were actually terrifyingly bright. It was very frightening and he was so scared that he almost peed on the ground.
Oh my god, he was hugged so tightly by the man in the straw hat that he was so excited that he became horny. It seemed that my decision to sleep in separate rooms with him was right. Otherwise, I might have been "poisoned" by him.
Fatty thought so in his heart and hurriedly ran away from Qin Ming.
Half an hour later, Luffy woke up as well, and many villagers opened their eyes in a daze.
"The sky is already bright. Will you come with me?”
Luffy stretched his back and put on the straw hat as he asked Qin Ming.
Qin Ming smiled and nodded slightly. Luffy laughed when he saw this,""I knew you wouldn't reject me.”
"You're already awake. I've prepared a new ship for you. You can leave now.”
The village chief leaned on his walking stick and came to Qin Ming and the others.
"Thank you so much for treating me to a feast and giving us a boat.”
Luffy said excitedly to the village chief.
The village chief waved his hand and brought Qin Ming and the others to the seaside port.
On the way, Qin Ming bid farewell to the villagers one by one. Some of the villagers even begged Qin Ming to stay, but he rejected them all with a smile.
When Fatty found out that Qin Ming had decided to go out to sea with the man who wore a straw hat and looked a little crazy and even threatened to become the Pirate King, he felt that Qin Ming must have gone crazy!
Seeing Fatty crying, Qin Ming wanted to hug him and say goodbye. No matter what, he had gotten along well with Fatty for more than half a year. The two of them could be said to be very good friends. Now that he was going to go out to sea for a long trip, he really couldn't bear to part with this fatty.
Who knew that when Fatty saw Qin Ming wanting to hug him, he hurriedly dodged and said with a strange expression: "There's no need to hug. You have to be careful in the future. It's not as peaceful outside as here. If you're not careful, you'll lose your life. I don't want to hear the news of your death so soon.”
How could Qin Ming know that when he was firm in his belief in life, Fatty had already treated him as a gay? He saw that Fatty was very sincere and his words were filled with concern. It was really worth his effort to save him.
After waving goodbye to Fatty and the others, Qin Ming saw that Luffy had already boarded the small fishing boat. Just as he was about to jog over, he saw an extended arm flying over.
Qin Ming's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling. Before he could say anything, Luffy's extended arm grabbed him.
Following that, Qin Ming flew up and arrived beside Luffy in the blink of an eye, boarding the fishing boat.
However, after Qin Ming was dragged onto the fishing boat by Luffy, his body slammed heavily into the pole of the boat when Luffy pulled back. He almost fainted from the pain.
"Brothers, let's set sail!"
Qin Ming, who was half-lying on the fishing boat, saw Luffy standing at the bow of the boat. He raised his head and raised his arms. He shouted in high spirits and thought to himself,'Smelly fellow, I'll teach you a lesson one day. I'm really lucky that my waist wasn't broken!'
