Above the Pirate King

Chapter 676 The Boiling Shadow

"This is the shadow fruit!?" Arthur looked at the fruit brought by Shura, and asked with some uncertainty.

He didn't know what the shadow fruit looked like, but considering that Shura took Moria away just now, he guessed that this might be the fruit "exploded" by Moria!

That is the shadow fruit!
"Yes, Your Majesty!" After Shura responded, he stepped forward and put the fruit in his hand on the table in front of Arthur, saying seriously, "This is the fruit we put around when Moriah died just now. One of the fruits in the pile changed!"

When someone with a devil fruit ability is caught and is about to be executed, it is Saint Martin's daily operation to put a lot of fruit next to him to obtain the opponent's devil fruit!
Although it is impossible to obtain the other party's fruit [-]% like this, the probability is not low. Saint Martin has already obtained a lot of fruits because of this!
"You're lucky this time!" Arthur looked at the shadow fruit in front of him, sighed, then changed his voice, and said to Shura, "By the way, you've worked hard these days, go and rest first!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Shura nodded respectfully, then turned and left the study.

"Gulong!"

And after Shura left, Arthur stared at the roasted, pitch-black shadow fruit with some spiral patterns in front of him, and swallowed inexplicably!

"Strange, why do you suddenly have the desire to eat this fruit?" Arthur said with a serious expression, hesitantly.

Looking at the fruit in front of him, a desire to eat the fruit suddenly appeared in his heart, and as time went by, this desire became more obvious and stronger, as if the shadow fruit in front of him was some kind of peerless delicacy placed on it. He is average in front of him!
"No, no!" Arthur frowned, suppressed the growing desire in his heart, shook his head and said, "This is definitely not a normal situation! It's not like I haven't eaten a devil fruit before, it's like shit The taste makes people want to eat it once and never want to eat it for the second time, how could it make me want to eat it?"

The more Arthur thought about it, the more wrong it became, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, but at the same time, his desire to eat the shadow fruit in front of him became stronger, and it even made him feel like he couldn't control himself!
Simply, his willpower is still strong, and he didn't lose control in the end, just looking at the shadow fruit in front of him, the desire to eat it has always existed!
what happened?

Why do I want to eat it so much?
I have taken other fruits before, but this has never happened!
Arthur looked at the shadowy fruit in front of him, and the desire to eat it for a while and the doubts about why he didn't know why filled his mind, and it kept reincarnating in his mind, making him confused.

suddenly!

Out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the shadow cast on the ground due to the sunlight.

Blessed to the soul! ! !

After a flash of thought, Arthur blurted out, "No, no, it's not that I want to eat it, but the shadow wants to eat it! It's just because the shadow is a part of me, so my desire to eat the shadow fruit will skyrocket! "

Shadow wants to eat shadow fruit! ?
When these words came out of Arthur's mouth, he was taken aback and had many doubts from the bottom of his heart!

Why does the shadow have the desire to eat the shadow fruit?

The shadow has already eaten a fruit, can it still eat the fruit again?

One question after another emerged from Arthur's mind!

Facing these questions one after another, Arthur calmed down quickly, and suppressed the growing desire for the shadow fruit in his heart, thought carefully, and analyzed and solved the problems one by one!

First of all, the first thing he thought about was, why does the shadow want to eat the shadow fruit?

Arthur was also very strange about this at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he got a clue from the fantasy and fairy tale novels before time travel!
Whether it is his shadow or the shadow fruit, although the performance is different, the essence is the same!

They are both shadows, which means that the essence between them is the same!

Under such circumstances, it is not impossible for him to understand the desire to devour the shadow fruit!

In those fantasy and fairy tale novels, wouldn't some treasures evolve by devouring things that are the same as themselves, or have the same essence, or are beneficial to themselves?
The truth is the same!

This should be his shadow, instinctive greed that is beneficial to him, something of the same origin.

Just like when people are hungry, they want to eat!
When a person (shadow) who has been hungry for a few days suddenly sees a table of hot meals (yingying fruit), of course he will instinctively want to go up and eat to fill his stomach.

However, during this period, because Arthur forcibly suppressed his desire with willpower, his body still did not move in the end!
After thinking about it for a while, a question immediately appeared in his mind.

Shadow has already eaten a fruit, can he eat again?

Arthur wasn't sure about that either!

On the one hand, animations, comics, and even reality taught him that he should not eat it. It is impossible for one person to have two kinds of fruits!
On the one hand, the desire transmitted to him by the shadow tells him that eating the shadow fruit is not harmful to his shadow, and even has great benefits!
This made Arthur a little embarrassed!

On the one hand, it is experience, on the other hand, it is an instinctive desire, which makes it difficult for him to choose to believe that!

"Damn it!" Looking at the shadow fruit in front of him, Arthur cursed secretly, with a look of embarrassment on his face!

But then, after careful consideration, Arthur finally decided to give up eating the shadow fruit!
In the anime and comics, until he crossed over, only Blackbeard possessed two devil fruit abilities, and according to the description in the comics, it was because of Blackbeard’s special body structure that he possessed it. All the capable users exploded in place!

This is the same for Arthur, who is in this world and has carefully understood the world so far.

He has never heard of anyone else having double devil fruit abilities!

Well, including him!
Although he can use two fruit abilities, he is not actually a double devil fruit ability user, in essence he just ate a thunder fruit.

The other Mumu fruit was actually eaten by his shadow!

In other words, he and Shadow Belong each ate one fruit now!
Therefore, once the shadow eats the shadow fruit, it is equivalent to eating two fruits, and it may explode on the spot as described in the original book!

Of course, considering his instinctive feelings, he might not explode in place!
However, regardless of whether it will explode or not, Arthur dare not, and will not bet on it!
He is the king of a country!

He who bears the fate of the entire king, unless his mind is flooded, he will never bet his life on such a trivial matter!

Besides, so what if he ate the shadow fruit?
It is nothing more than a little improvement in ability and strength!

This is nothing to him!
As a man with a system, he still has many ways to improve his strength, there is absolutely no need to take such inexplicable risks!
"Put it away first! Take it out when you are sure in the future!" Arthur murmured, reaching out his hand to put the shadow fruit on the table into the space!

But just then, the accident happened!
When he stretched out his hand, the sunlight outside the window happened to shine on his hand, and the shadow of his hand was reflected on the shadow fruit!
Immediately, there seemed to be some chemical reaction between his shadow and the shadow fruit, and they began to boil strangely and silently!

At the same time, the shadow fruit also seemed to have a chemical reaction with the shadow, gradually turning into a blurry shadow, and slowly sinking into Arthur's shadow!
