Devil fruit in comics

Chapter 245 She is my woman
Although not many people in Gotham know that Selina is Catwoman, she is wearing a Catwoman uniform now.

After seeing Roger and Catwoman walking into the bar, the customers in the bar immediately stopped talking and turned to look at the two of them.

Roger has not been in Gotham for a long time, but his reputation is no less than that of Catwoman Selina.

To some extent, his fame in the underground world is even greater than that of Catwoman.

The reason is simple, because Catwoman usually does some less harmful art theft or punishes unlucky criminals, and never does those particularly serious things.

Roger, on the other hand, was completely different.

His campaign to become famous was to extort [-] million dollars from the Falcone family.

Then, within a few days, he dated the Joker's girlfriend, Harley Quinn.

These two things alone are enough to make his reputation completely overshadow Catwoman Selina.

After entering the bar, Roger ignored the gazes of others, came to the bar, and took out a few hundred dollars from his wallet.

After asking the bartender for two glasses of whiskey, he asked the bartender, "A stranger named Hughes often drank here before. Do you know anything about him?"

Although the bartender at the bar is unlikely to provide much useful information, Roger still doesn't mind spending money to buy some information from the bartender.

"Know a little, but I don't know what you want to know?"

The bartender put the dollars on the bar into his pocket and said quickly.

"Everything, as long as you know it, I want to hear it."

Roger is not the only one who is looking for Hughes now, the owners behind the bank want to know where Hughes is now.

"He's a veteran, came to Gotham about a week ago."

"At the beginning, he didn't have much money on him, and he couldn't drink much in a night."

"But within a few days, I heard that he robbed a bank, the kind of bank you know."

"I haven't seen him since that day."

the bartender said quickly.

"Aside from these, is there anything else?" Roger continued.

"No, I've only seen him two or three times, and you're not the first person to come here to ask about this information. Others have come here to ask many times."

"If I knew anything else, I would have told the others in the morning."

The bartender didn't say it clearly, but the other people he was talking about, without thinking about it, were the gangsters behind that gangster bank.

Although those banks are called gangster banks, it does not mean that these banks are banks of a gangster.

Usually, these gangster banks are run by several gangsters working together.

As for the purpose, of course it is to better launder funds and business.

These things are not particularly secret news, and the police in Gotham also know it clearly.

However, in a capitalist country like the United States, the Gotham police really have nothing to do with these gangster banks.

After all, legally speaking, these gangster banks are legal.

"When he was drinking here, did anything special happen, such as what kind of wine he liked to drink, or did he reward a certain stripper?"

Although the bartender said he didn't know much about Hughes, Roger didn't think so.

Hughes would choose to drink in this bar, there must be a reason.

Even if he chose it randomly, as long as he appears here two or three times in a row, it can explain some problems.

For example, he lives very close to here, or he passes by here every day, or he has something to do nearby.

If he had really chosen randomly, he would have been in this bar only once, not several times.

"He doesn't even have much money for drinking, so how can he have money to reward strippers."

The bartender shook his head and said.

However, when he glanced at Selina's alluring body, he suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, he seems to have a neck ring on his body, black, leather-like."

The bartender pointed to Selina's neck and gestured with his hand.

"Is that the kind of neck ring used for games?"

Roger and Selina looked at each other, and continued to ask the bartender.

"Yes, that's the kind! But he didn't wear it around his neck, but held it in his hands. Once when he paid for it, the neck ring fell out of his pocket."

"The neck ring looked quite small. He seemed quite nervous at the time, so he picked it up immediately."

The bartender recalled the scene at that time and said quickly.

"Have any showgirls in your bar ever worn this kind of neck ring?"

"Or in the neighborhood, is there any warbler who wears a collar to work?"

A war veteran is carrying around a special game collar, which doesn't look right by any means.

Combining the environment of the bar with the cultural characteristics of Gotham, Roger quickly had a guess.

"Probably not, at least I haven't seen it." The bartender replied with great certainty.

After asking this question, Roger didn't continue to ask, and said to Selina: "What do you think?"

"It's almost the same as you think, but he is a foreigner. I don't think he has any acquaintances in Gotham."

When Selina answered Roger, a middle-aged man who didn't know whether he had drunk too much or lost his reason because of his lust came up, and grabbed Selina's round buttocks with his right hand.

As soon as the man came over, Selina and Roger noticed his behavior.

But Roger didn't make a move, he wanted to see how Selina solved this kind of problem.

Selina did not disappoint, and she turned around easily like a gymnast, avoiding the man's claws.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the people, she raised her slender and straight right leg, kicked the man's chest, and sent the man flying.

Bang!
The man was kicked several meters away, knocked over the table behind him, and fell to the ground in a state of embarrassment.

However, Selina didn't stop there, stepping on the stiletto heels made of metal, and walked slowly towards the man who fell to the ground.

After coming in front of the man, Selina raised her right foot again and stepped on the man's right hand.

The silver-white metal high heels were inserted into the man's palm like a dagger.

Because the high heels are not sharp, the man's palm was not pierced.

However, this is the effect Selina wants.

Amidst the man's wailing, Selina twisted her right foot, causing the stiletto to rotate in the man's palm.

The tragic wailing almost surpassed the sound of music in the bar.

In the end, the pain from the palm made the man faint.

Seeing Selina's actions, Roger suddenly had a strange idea in his heart.

"Queen, hit me!"

As soon as the idea came up, Roger had goosebumps.

No, I don't have this kind of hobby either, why did I suddenly have this idea.

When the man passed out completely, Selina swayed her seductive waist and returned to the bar.

As soon as she came back, Roger raised his right hand, hit her round buttocks a few times, and then grabbed her hard.

After doing all this, he deliberately cast a provocative look at the other male guests in the bar.

Do you see it!

You can't, I can!

Selina didn't know what Roger was thinking.

But when she saw Roger's provocative expression on other men, she immediately reacted.

Although she doesn't reject Roger touching her, she still doesn't like Roger's current behavior very much.

However, just as she was about to say something, Roger didn't give her a chance to speak at all, and kissed her charming red lips, giving her a deep French kiss.

When kissing her, Roger's right hand was not idle, it moved around her straight back and peach buttocks.

He stopped when Selina shyly pushed him away with a blush on her face.

"you……"

Selina was about to say something when she saw Roger's rogue-like expression.

After seeing Roger's expression, she didn't say anything, but snorted in a nasal voice.

All the information the bartender can provide has already been provided, and it doesn't make much sense to stay in the bar.

Just when Selina was about to leave the bar, Roger suddenly put his arms around her slender waist like a water snake, and said to the people in the bar: "She is my woman, and if you think about her, you just want to get along with me." .”

"If someone wants to make trouble with me, then I will make trouble with his whole family."

After saying this, Roger put his arms around Selina and left the bar without looking back.

After leaving the bar, Selina said to Roger: "What do you mean by those words just now, the traditional sense of responsibility of a man who grows flowers?"

"It's fine if you want to understand it that way."

"Anyway, with me, it is every man's unshirkable responsibility to protect his own woman."

Roger said with a serious face.

Although he didn't tell Selina his real background, he disguised himself as an outsider from a flower grower.

"I just don't reject doing those things with you. I didn't promise to be your woman. Don't think too much about it."

Selina laughed, a very charming smile, and a very flamboyant smile.

"What you think is your business, what I do is mine."

Roger looked at Selina's charming face and continued.

"Harley Quinn slept with you too, why didn't you tell others that she is also your woman?" Selina put away her smile and asked a proposition.

"She doesn't count. She and I can only be regarded as taking what we need, and we are just teammates who cooperate once in a while."

Although Harley Quinn's charm is not lower than that of Selina, but Harley's madness always makes people a little worried.

It's okay to play for a while, if you really treat Harley as your girlfriend, even the clown may not be able to bear it.

"I appreciate your sense of responsibility, but have you ever thought about it? Telling them that I am your woman is not a good thing for you or me."

"Let's not talk about anything else, it will bring you and me a weakness."

Selina said seriously.

"Don't worry, it's because you don't know my strength yet. If you know what kind of strength I have, you will find that none of the things you worry about will happen."

Although Selina didn't say it clearly, Roger knew exactly what she was worried about.

To put it simply, she was worried that others would use her to threaten Roger, or use Roger to threaten her.

The time they have known each other is indeed not long, but in a country like the United States, it is nothing at all to become boyfriend and girlfriend after a day of acquaintance.

Not to mention just boyfriend and girlfriend, there are not a few people who get married after a few hours of knowing each other.

This kind of "flash marriage" in the true sense has become commonplace in the casino city of Las Vegas.

"After you say that, I'm really curious, what kind of strength do you have?"

"Since you said I was your woman, shouldn't you confess your ability now?"

A curious look appeared on Selina's face.

"of course can."

After speaking, Roger raised his right hand and raised his index finger.

"First, this one!"

As soon as the words fell, his right index finger completed partial elementalization, turning into a finger composed of photons, shining golden light.

After seeing this scene, Selina's expression changed from curiosity to shock.

She knew that Roger was a superpower, with the superpower of teleportation.

But she didn't expect that Roger could turn his fingers into this photon-like form.

Under Selina's watchful eyes, Roger ended the flash elementalization of his index finger, and used the ability of the magma fruit.

His right index finger has just returned to normal.

In the next second, it turned into orange-red magma, emitting an astonishingly high temperature and at the same time glowing orange-red.

The magma elementalization of the right index finger only lasted for five or six seconds before it ended.

It's not that Roger can't continue, but that the high temperature brought about by the elementalization of magma has already made Selina feel hot.

When Roger's finger returned to its original shape again, Selina asked again: "Apart from these, do you have other superpowers?"

"Yes! It's just that those are not very easy to perform, and I will show you them when I have a chance in the future."

Roger wasn't worried about Selina revealing her powers.

What Selina saw was just some superficial phenomena of elementalization.

She doesn't know what kind of existence a devil fruit is.

Even if she leaked the information, it would be impossible for others to formulate a targeted plan based on his demonstrated abilities.

If he was targeted so easily, SHIELD would not be helpless against him.

Among other things, the elementalization of the whole body alone is enough to make him ignore most of the targeting methods.

Coupled with the space movement ability given by the door fruit and the space strike ability given by the shaking fruit, even if the ability of the devil fruit is suppressed to the level of Lv3, he cannot be dealt with by everyone.

"You know, after you showed these two superpowers, I'm getting more and more curious about your origin."

"I was thinking, when will you be willing to tell me all the secrets about yourself?"

Selina looked at Roger and said with a smile.
