Another Demon Fruit
"Pfft, it stinks." After entering the Uncertain Terminal Station, Luo An immediately covered his nose. It was too smelly.
The Uncertain Terminal was actually a large garbage dump. It was a place in the Kingdom of Goa that was specially used to pile up garbage. It was located outside the center of the Kingdom of Goa and was separated from the city by a high wall.
There were also people living in the Uncertain Terminal Station, but those who lived here were all poor people. They lived in this garbage mountain every day, looking for things that the nobles had abandoned but could still be used. Some of them were sold, while others were kept for their own use.
Sometimes, if they were lucky enough, they would find some valuable items such as coins or jewelry. That would be a pleasant surprise, allowing the family to live comfortably for a period of time. Of course, it was more likely that the valuable items would be snatched away by the hooligans, and they would be beaten up or killed directly. In any case, the status of these poor people was low. Those who lived here were basically abandoned by the kingdom. Even if they died, no one would uphold justice for them.
When Luo An first arrived, he saw something similar with his own eyes.
"Damned brat, quickly hand over the thing.”Luo An was originally searching for his target, but a loud shout caught his attention.
"No, this is mine. I'm not giving it to you.”
Luo An looked in the direction of the voice and realized that it was four or five hooligans making things difficult for a young man. They would go up and kick him at any time, but the young man allowed the hooligans to kick and hit him, hugging something tightly and not letting go. Perhaps the people around them were already numb to this, or perhaps they were afraid of the power behind these hooligans, so they just pretended not to see it and did not have the slightest intention of stepping forward to uphold justice.
The one who attracted Luo An's attention was the youth. This youth had blonde hair and was covered in dirt. He looked very thin, but his bones were very big. Just from his bones, he should be about his age. His clothes were patched, and there were faint traces of blood seeping out. He looked sloppy and miserable.
Of course, this didn't attract Luo An's attention. Luo An had seen too many similar things over the years. In the beginning, he would still intervene, but later on, things would often end in betrayal. The people he saved would often lead their enemies to him…Later on, Luo An finally understood a principle. In this cannibal world, being a good person was impossible.
However, he had to intervene in today's matter. It was not that this young man was very familiar with Luo An. In fact, Luo An did not know this young man. In fact, such a character did not even appear in the original novel.
However, the thing in the youth's arms was very familiar to Luo An, because he had once owned something similar. It was a bright red cantaloupe-shaped fruit with spiral patterns all over it. It looked mysterious and evil.
"Little brat, I think you're tired of living, right? Since you really want to die, then I'll fulfill your wish.”One of the blonde-haired hooligans saw that the young man still did not let go after fighting for so long. He instantly became angry out of humiliation and pulled out a dagger to stab the young man's body.
" Ah…" The young man cried out in shock. He wanted to dodge, but his movements pulled on the wounds on his body. The intense pain made his entire body cramp. In that moment, the dagger had already fallen. The young man couldn't dodge in time, so he could only watch in fear as the dagger fell.
"Alright, so be it. In this hopeless world, perhaps death is also a kind of relief…But what should I do, Mom?”The young man closed his eyes in despair and let the dagger fall.
"Tsk ~"
"Ah!"
However, the dagger did not fall because the moment the dagger was about to reach him, a knife that was much longer than the dagger cut off the dagger along with the hand holding it.
"Hmm?"
The young man waited for a while, but he did not feel any pain. He slowly opened his eyes and saw a handsome figure with his back to the sun. Golden light shone along the edge of the figure, making the figure look like a god on earth. Twenty years later, this scene was deeply imprinted in Grinolan's heart and would never be forgotten.
It was this figure who had saved his life when he was in the most despair and gave him hope. At the same time, it had also led him to another magnificent path and given him a glorious life.
" God." It was also at this moment that Grinolan's loyalty to Roan reached an infinite level, and he became Roan's most loyal subordinate.
"I'm not a god. My name is Luo An.”Luo An sheathed his sword and picked up the Devil Fruit. He asked casually,""Where did you get this?"
Grinolan realized that this was a boy about the same age as him. His handsome face almost made him feel ashamed of himself. He was indeed a god. Only a god deserved such a perfect face.
"Hmm?" Luo An frowned.
Grenolan immediately reacted and quickly said,"I found it in the rubbish dump in front of us.”
Luo An was extremely envious of his luck. He could even find the Devil Fruit by rummaging through the trash.
"Why didn't you eat it?" asked Luo An.”
Grinolan looked at the Devil's Fruit and replied,""I don't know what kind of fruit this is, and it looks like it's worth a lot of money. I originally planned to sell it to treat my mother's illness…but they found out…eh?”
Grinolan then realized that the four thugs were all lying on the ground. The blonde who had almost killed him was in the worst state. His right hand was broken and he was crying on the ground.
Luo An didn't even look at these hooligans. Instead, he held the Devil's Fruit and examined it carefully."I have to say, your eyes are indeed sharp. This thing is indeed very valuable.”
" God, you saved my life," Grinolan said immediately." I don't have anything to repay you with. I'm willing to offer this fruit to you as a small token of my gratitude for saving my life."”
"Are you sure?" "Do you know how much this thing is worth?"”
Grenolan immediately shook his head and said sincerely,"No matter how much it's worth, I'm willing to give it to you.”
"Before you make this decision, I think I should tell you what this thing is.”Luo An wasn't moved by this appearance and only started to introduce,"This thing is called the Devil's Fruit. It's known as the secret treasure of the sea. After eating it, one will gain magical power. Therefore, this thing is very precious in the sea. It has always been priceless. Even the worst Devil's Fruit can be sold for 100 million Bailey. The most expensive Devil's Fruit is worth 5 billion Bailey…"
