Chapter 108 Kaido: It's Too Difficult For Me, And I Was Cut Off By Lucifer Again
"These three Devil Fruits: one is Jack's ancient Mammoth Fruit, one is an unknown ancient species recorded on the treasure map, and one is my collection, the Paramecia Transparent Fruit."
"If you want, you can pick one yourself."
"No, Captain Lucifer."
"To avenge my companions by killing Jack the Drought has fulfilled my wish."
"Taking another Devil Fruit would be too brazen."
Simon shook his head firmly and spoke.
"Okay, I told you to take it, so you should take it. Devil Fruits are for people to eat; otherwise, they're just garbage."
"Most of the people on the ship already have Devil Fruit powers, and they have the right to choose one as well. Since you're on this ship, you will naturally be treated equally."
"Choose one yourself."
Simon looked at the three Devil Fruits and finally chose the Transparent Fruit.
"Have you decided?"
"You have to think carefully; once you eat a Devil Fruit, you can't change your mind."
"Yes, Captain. I'll choose the Transparent Fruit."
Simon knew his own abilities well.
He's a sniper and a master assassin, skilled in long-range combat.
Although the two Zoan ancient species are powerful, they are more suited for physical powerhouses in close combat, not for him.
On the other hand, the Transparent Fruit, which grants invisibility, is the perfect fit for him.
With the Transparent Fruit, he could better conceal his presence and fully utilize his sniper and assassination skills.
"That's good. I also hoped you'd choose the Transparent Fruit."
Lucifer smiled slightly.
"The Transparent Fruit is incredibly strong—so strong that even Observation Haki can't detect your presence."
"If you reach a high enough level, you might even become the world's top sniper."
"I won't let you down, Captain Lucifer!"
When Simon was at his lowest, Lucifer rescued him, gave him a chance for revenge, and now he's placing his trust in Simon once more.
Simon has pledged his loyalty to Lucifer and is ready to give his life for him.
Now that Lucifer has given him this Devil Fruit, Simon has made up his mind to become stronger in order to repay Lucifer's kindness.
Simon opened his mouth and ate the Transparent Fruit, ignoring the horrible taste.
Soon, the entire Devil Fruit was consumed.
"How do you feel? Try out your ability."
Everyone's eyes were on Simon.
Simon sat motionless, but suddenly his body began to turn transparent, until he disappeared entirely.
He was now invisible to the naked eye, and only Observation Haki could detect him.
"Yes, the Transparent Fruit is perfect for snipers."
Lucifer nodded in satisfaction.
"As long as it's not like that pervert from before."
"If you dare to use it to peep, I'll never forgive you!"
Baby5 still remembers Absalom's perverted behavior and holds a lot of resentment.
"Don't worry, I'm not that kind of unscrupulous pervert."
Simon returned to his normal state and smiled.
At that moment, Lucifer put away the other two Devil Fruits and softly whispered, "Bullet is back!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, a piece of steel appeared out of thin air in front of Lucifer.
The steel extended, quickly transforming into Bullet, a heavy sniper rifle.
Bullet is the most famous sniper rifle from Lucifer's previous life, known for its terrifying power.
The moment it strikes a human body, it can tear flesh and bone apart.
Once hit by Bullet's heavy sniper, the target would either die or be disabled!
"Your sniper rifle has been damaged, so this gun is for you."
"Its power will not disappoint you."
In the world of One Piece, there are many kinds of weapons, but when it comes to firearms, none are as powerful as Lucifer's from his past life.
Bullet's heavy sniper is far stronger than Simon's original rifle.
If combined with Armament Haki, its power would be even more formidable.
Lucifer was eager to see just how powerful Bullet would be in this world.
"Thank you, Captain!" Simon exclaimed, thrilled.
As a real top sniper, Simon could immediately tell the quality of the rifle.
He caressed Bullet gently, almost as if he were stroking a lover.
It is said that top snipers treat their guns like lovers, and now Simon could understand that sentiment.
"Okay, enough with the power of the Transparent Fruit and the rifle."
"You'll need them soon."
Lucifer was preparing to attend Big Mom's Tea Party, where a big battle awaited.
At the same time, by killing Jack the Drought, Lucifer had angered Kaido once again.
It was as though the Ghost Pirates were now facing two of the Four Emperors at once.
The fierce battle was coming, and their time was running out.
Enel, Cavendish, and the others understood this, so they had been working hard during this period.
The big battle was approaching, and even a small increase in strength could tilt the odds in their favor.
In the cabin, Lucifer accessed the system.
"System, how many killing points are needed to identify this Devil Fruit?"
Lucifer held up the unknown ancient species Devil Fruit and asked.
"Host, 20,000 killing points are required for identification."
"Twenty thousand?"
"The identification alone costs 20,000?"
Lucifer was slightly taken aback.
The higher the identification cost, the more powerful the Devil Fruit's ability.
"It seems this fruit is not ordinary. Perhaps it really is an ancient species."
The information recorded on the treasure map may not have been entirely accurate, but the system's identification was reliable.
"System, recover this Devil Fruit."
"Ding, Zoan: Ancient Species – Dragon Dragon Fruit, Pachycephalosaurus form recovered successfully. 70,000 killing points gained."
"So that's the ability..."
The Pachycephalosaurus Fruit was the ability of one of the Beasts Pirates' flying six cells in the original story.
Had Lucifer not intervened, this fruit would have been seized by Kaido and eaten by Runti.
But now, it was Lucifer's.
Recovering the ancient Pachycephalosaurus fruit provided Lucifer with 70,000 killing points.
His total kill points exceeded 200,000 once again.
Properties Panel:
Host: Lucifer
Age: 23
Devil Fruit: Word Spirit Fruit
Physique: Hell Devil
Armament Haki: Pinnacle
Observation Haki: Pinnacle
Conqueror's Haki: Domain
Killing Points: 200,000
Lucifer already had the Saber-Toothed Cat Fruit and the Mammoth Fruit, so recycling the Pachycephalosaurus Fruit wasn't a big loss.
As of now, Lucifer still possessed five Devil Fruits, including the Saber-Toothed Tiger Fruit, the Door Door Fruit, the Blood Blood Fruit, the Stone Stone Fruit, and the Mammoth Fruit.
Except for the Door Fruit, the other four were extremely powerful.
Unfortunately, he hadn't yet found suitable crew members to eat them.
Aside from Cavendish and Weibull, everyone in the Ghost Pirates had Devil Fruit powers.
Cavendish repeatedly refused to eat a Devil Fruit, and Lucifer couldn't force him to.
As for Weibull, Lucifer had considered abilities that might suit him, but hadn't found one yet.
"Door Fruit, it's time to make it work."
Lucifer looked at the Door Fruit in his hand and opened the system store.
Soon, Lucifer found what he was looking for.
"System, buy a Ship Elf."
"Ding, the purchase of the Ship Elf was successful. 100,000 killing points were deducted. Remaining killing points: 100,000."
A black light fell, and an elf appeared within it.
This elf was different from the Grand Line's ship elves. It resembled a hell devil, but in a cute, chibi version.
The Ship Elf is a spirit created when a crew cherishes their ship, appearing only when the bond between them and the ship is strong enough.
Since Lucifer's Nether ship didn't meet this requirement, he had to buy one with kill points.
Properties Panel:
Host: Lucifer
Age: 23
Devil Fruit: Word Spirit Fruit
Physique: Hell Devil
Armament Haki: Pinnacle
Observation Haki: Pinnacle
Conqueror's Haki: Domain
Killing Points: 100,000
Though it cost Lucifer 100,000 kill points, it was a worthwhile investment.
"Master."
The Ship Elf saluted Lucifer respectfully.
The system-purchased Ship Elves are more intelligent and capable than those born naturally.
"Here, eat this."
Lucifer tossed the Door Fruit to the Ship Elf.
"Understood, Master!"
The Ship Elf eagerly bit into the Door Fruit, sweating slightly as it ate.
It seemed the Devil Fruit didn't taste unpleasant to the elf, as it devoured it with relish.
Soon, the entire Door Fruit was consumed by the Ship Elf.
