"I'm sorry for scaring you."
Looking at the man in the suit sitting on the ground, Carl grinned.""I'll have to trouble you to leave this to me.”
Although he said that he would leave it to me, Karl had already snatched the iron box over.
It was a square box with a height of nearly 40cm and a special silver lock.
Kacha!
The quality of the silver lock was very good, but Carl directly destroyed the lock, pulled the silver lock down, and threw it on the deck.
After opening the box, a special fruit with a spiral pattern immediately appeared in front of Carl's eyes.
"I've obtained the barrier fruit!”
After confirming that it was the Devil's Fruit, Carl's smile widened.
Clang!
Closing the box, Carl was about to return the way he came.
As soon as he turned around, two silver-white saber lights slashed over like crescent moons, aiming at his neck.
Carl merely extended his index finger, and the two blade lights were blocked. The sound of metal clashing could be heard.
"Impossible!"
A fatal sneak attack was blocked by the opponent in such a way. The dual-blade swordsman immediately let out a sound of disbelief.
"Your swordsmanship is not bad, but you can't cut through steel."”
Carl held two blades with two fingers and smiled playfully."If you can cut through steel, you might be able to cut my fingers.”
Kacha!
The pitch-black substance flashed between his fingers, and the two blades instantly broke.
Bang!
In the next second, the dual-blade swordsman was sent flying like a cannonball. He crashed into the side of the ship and flew out of the dock, landing on the battlefield that was littered with corpses.
Karl jumped down from the deck and ignored the gazes from all directions. He used high-speed movement and disappeared from the spot.
"It disappeared!"
"Who is that guy? Was he holding the legendary secret treasure of the sea?”
"He's too strong. The two 'monsters' didn't have the ability to resist at all in front of him.”
"Is it an illusion? I think he looks like the bounty hunter known as the Knight! However, he wasn't wearing knight armor, and he didn't have his "Strange Bandit" partner by his side.”
"The Demon Fruit that was about to be auctioned off has been snatched away. This time, the black market has lost a lot of face. That young man will soon be on the black market's wanted list.”
"Let's go, let's go…" They had warmed up a month in advance and thought that the auction would go smoothly. They did not expect that the auction item would be snatched away when it reached their doorstep. How unlucky.”
“......”
The Barrier Fruit was snatched away under the watchful eyes of countless people, and the two experts hired by the black market were also crippled on the spot.
This news would soon spread throughout Eastern Sea.
Carl's identity would also be recognized. The strongest bounty hunter in the East China Sea would soon become famous in the dark world of the East China Sea.
At that time, countless "sideburns" who were obviously weak but did not know their limits would use all kinds of methods to assassinate Carl and Carina for the rewards of the black market, just like how they attacked the physical skills expert and the dual-blade swordsman just now.
But as long as it wasn't a bounty from the navy, Carl wouldn't care.
Moreover, he had offended the black market in the East Sea, not the entire world.
At worst, they would not buy things in the black market in Eastern Sea anymore.
When Carl returned to the hotel room, Carina's gaze immediately fell on the box in his hand. She was a little surprised."You got it so quickly?"
"Of course, although those two guys are quite strong, they are not even half as strong as me.”
Karl raised his head and handed the box to Carina."This is the barrier fruit. After eating it, you will have absolute defense and will definitely be one of the toughest women in the sea.”
"Is a mere fruit really that magical?”
Carina took the box and opened it. She ignored Karl's ambiguous words and looked at the special fruit with spiral patterns. She was still in disbelief.
"You'll know after you eat it.”
Carl moved a chair over and sat down. As if he was expecting something, he urged Carina,""Eat, eat, eat…"
Carina held the Barrier Fruit and examined it carefully.""Will I become a landlubber if I eat it? This mouthful of mine is worth at least tens of millions of Bailey, right?”
After saying that, Carina gently bit on the barrier fruit.
"Oh..."
However, after biting off a piece of the fruit, Carina's cute face instantly turned purple, as if she was about to vomit.
"Don't spit it out. Just take the first bite.”Carl quickly reminded him.
“...... Gulp!"
Hearing this, Carina hurriedly covered her mouth, raised her head, and swallowed the piece of fruit. Then, as if she was drowning, she panted,"Ha... Hah... What the hell is this? Why does it taste so bad?”
"What's that smell?" Carl held back his laughter and asked curiously.
"I can't describe it. In short, it's dozens of times worse than rotten fruits.”Carina looked at the barrier fruit that was missing a piece of flesh and looked at Carl with fear.""Do I really only need to take a bite?”
"Hmm?"
Karl frowned and said,""Didn't you sense that there's an additional power in your body?”
"Wait…I sensed it."
Carina's beautiful eyes lit up slightly, then she closed her eyes to find a way to guide that power.
After a while, Carina opened her beautiful eyes and extended her index and middle fingers of her right hand. She made a shooting gesture at Carl and winked at him.
Boom!
A transparent square barrier, like glass, appeared between Karl and Carina.
Carl clenched his right fist and punched the barrier.
With a loud bang, a violent wave of air swept through the entire room, shaking the floor, walls, and ceiling until they were filled with cracks.
However, the barrier in front of him did not move at all, let alone crack.
Carl smiled. He smiled happily.
Carina also smiled, as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden.
At this moment, he no longer had a weakness.
And she was no longer a burden to him.
A monster that did not need to restrain its strength would definitely shock the entire world.
