Chapter 13: A Fortune in Devil Fruits

Not long after, the three of them entered the underground palace where the treasure was stored. 

At the same time, the eyes of the surveillance Den Den Mushi installed in the dominant heights of the underground palace were immediately covered with a layer of black mist. 

Just like what had happened before in San Leschar's palace, it was obviously due to Blackbeard's activation ability. 

Seeing this, many Den Den Mushi were still trying to focus through the black mist, but they were firmly blocked, unable to capture anything, and their indicators showed a failure. 

After entering the underground palace, San Leschar consciously revealed the location of the Devil Fruit. 

However, just as he saw the expressions of astonishment on Karl and Blackbeard's faces, there was a trace of disdain on his face... 

A humble peasant is a humble peasant after all, never having seen so much money! 

The expression on this guy betrayed him, even though he didn't speak, but obviously that's what he meant. 

San Leschar's expression was well controlled, and that trace of disdain only appeared briefly, flashing and disappearing. 

BUT... How could this little action of his escape the careful Karl? 

As a transmigrator with a broad mind and knowing that every detail is important, Karl is the most observant person, and if he pays a little more attention, he can discover it! 

Although he was somewhat overwhelmed by the impact of the enormous wealth in front of him, Karl's eyes were always on San Leschar! 

He feared that this guy might have something to hide from them, so he might trick them into a trap! 

But, obviously, Karl overestimated this fool's intelligence. How could he think so much and write something on his face, how did he come up with such an intelligent operation? 

"Dare to look down on me, idiot, does this money belong to you? And now, you still dare to show superiority? You need to learn a lesson!" 

For the World Nobles, Karl had no patience. He directly started and slapped San Leschar against the wall... 

*Paf*Paf* 

"Huh?" 

On the other hand, Blackbeard turned around and recovered from the shock. 

Hearing Karl's words, he also realized what had happened and immediately got angry. 

Despised by the World Nobles whom he despised? Wow, how dare this trash look down on him? Isn't this a lesson? 

In an instant, Blackbeard also joined the fight and, under San Leschar's screams, gave him a hearty beating. 

*Smack*Bam*Tank*Paf*Smack*Bam*Tank* 

"Stop fighting, sirs, misunderstandings, it's a big misunderstanding!" 

"Misunderstanding? Are you questioning my observational ability?" 

"Dare to question me, you need to learn a lesson!" 

The violent one-sided beating lasted almost ten minutes before it ended. 

At that moment, San Leschar's face had blue and purple spots, it's not necessary to describe it, it's not an exaggeration at all. 

"I'll spare you a bit of life first and ask you, the wealth here shouldn't be just for your entire family, right?" 

Karl rubbed his aching wrist, panted slightly, and asked San Leschar with a fierce expression on his face. 

This guy is worthy of growing up with a golden key in his hand, and Karl's hands hurt when he hits him, and this guy didn't faint from the beating! 

The thick fat can be used as a defensive cover, and the nutrition is really good. 

"No no..." 

San Leschar endured the severe pain, dragged the words, stammered, and responded. 

"The things in this... only represent... a third of... our family. They are placed here... for us to come here... for auction use..." 

After a while, he finally finished speaking. 

For fear of not being able to speak clearly so that the two men in front of him could not hear him, after a severe beating, San Leschar exhausted all his strength to finish speaking and managed to be as clear as possible. 

And this time, even though he was talking about his family's wealth, there was no hint of bragging in his tone. 

It seems he learned his lesson! 

Actually! 

Hearing this, Karl and Blackbeard looked at each other, and in each other's eyes, they saw a trace of longing and ambition! 

With this question, it's no wonder that as World Nobles, the real wealth and riches should be in Mary Geoise, why are they here? 

But what Karl didn't expect is that this was comparable to the wealth of a royal family of a country. It can fill a huge underground palace, and it's only for their family to come here with elegance! 

People are more than people, it's so maddening! 

A third of the wealth, which is so much, can support a country... 

What about in general? What about the wealth of the other nineteen royal families? 

(T/N: Here the author forgets that the Nefertari family refused to become Tenryubito, so there are 19 families) 

Karl and Blackbeard thought of this at the first moment! 

For the two ambitious people, this kind of rare and golden place is the most attractive! 

Knowing this kind of news, if there is a possibility, why not go there? Even if the hope is slim. 

Just thinking about it is exciting! 

At that moment, the words Mary Geoise were deeply engraved in the minds of the two... 

But now is not the time to think about these things. Since they set sail, they already had a big priority plan. 

It remains to be seen what kind of results they can achieve and how much development they can accomplish, it all depends on this action! 

Thinking about this, Karl picked up San Leschar, who was paralyzed on the ground and couldn't get up, and together with Blackbeard, jumped the corridor where the belongings were piled up and walked towards the back. 

Under San Leschar's guidance, the two walked to the end of the underground palace, where there were two small rooms. 

There were two lines engraved on each of them: Devil Fruit Collection Room and Weapon Collection Room! 

Along the way, the treasures accumulated throughout the hall had shocked the two to the point of leaving them stunned. 

When they got here, they were surprised that besides the devil fruit, there was a collection of weapons! 

However, with the mentality of completing the system tasks first, Karl pushed the devil fruit room first and entered together with Blackbeard. 

"Zehahahahaha, there are actually four! These rich idiots have left so many devil fruits that no one in the world can get!" 

Looking at the four devil fruits placed in the transparent crystal cabin in the room, Blackbeard was delighted. 

Four devil fruits appeared at the same time, but it was a great fortune! 

Regardless of the rank, even the worst fruit can be sold at a terrifying price! 

After all, not many people in the world have read "The Encyclopedia of Devil Fruits." 

Most people with demon fruit powers don't know what kind of abilities their fruits have when they get them! 

Therefore, in the same situation of unknown abilities, there is not much difference between the value of a lower-quality Devil Fruit and a higher-level Devil Fruit. 

Of course, except for a few well-known ones. 

"Who said no?" 

Hearing this, Karl nodded, and then the two walked together towards the crystal display case. 

"Something familiar, the shape of this Devil Fruit, it seems like I've seen it in the encyclopedia..." 

"No, is that the Behemoth Fruit?"
