Pirate Warring States Warriors

"We are all... Devil Fruit users."

The tree men in the valley swayed their branches, sending friendly gestures to the few people who came to this strange world.

Some of them stretched themselves out, completely exposing themselves to the sun, and some of them stuck their feet into the water and were beaten up by a few tree men next to them.

However, the Warring States Period did not notice the picture of tree men ascending the river in front of them.I was completely shocked by Ager's words.

Hundreds of people, all of whom have Devil Fruit abilities... The tree

Still the same fruit ability

But aren’t artificial devil fruits an incomplete technology that won’t appear for at least 50 years?

Even the artificial Devil Fruit 50 years from now will be a successful experiment if it cannot be eaten to death, not to mention that the output may not be so large in ten years.

How could such quantity and quality be possible?

Agger on the side saw the dull Sengoku and thought he had bad intentions, so he said angrily.

"Navy kid, don't think about it. Government scientists have already finished studying us, and in the end they just decided that we were a new species."

"Otherwise, with their behavior, we can still stay here well."

"No, no, you misunderstood me, Agel...Uncle." Warring States continued, regardless of the tree trunks that made the other party angry when he heard the title.

"I just...did you all eat a fruit? But doesn't the fruit have to be eaten by the first person to be effective?"

"Are you curious how we appeared?"

It laughed loudly, and a bit of sawdust erupted from its mouth.

"You might as well ask the king of Ragwal and let him tell you. This brat Talon knows this better than me."

Following its trunk, Warring States looked towards the distance on the other side of the valley stream.

In the distance, dozens of tree people stood up, and in the fortress they surrounded the city, there was a group of guards.

Their overall clothing was relatively complete, with a figure wearing armor and several women guarding them.

"Olia my daughter."

The strong man in armor trotted over and gave the girl a loving bear hug who wanted to run away when he saw the situation was bad.

Struggling in the steel cage, he stretched out an arm and waved with difficulty, and Warring States behind him seemed to hear the sound of bone cracking.

He quietly observed the king of the franchising country from the sidelines.

He has neat short white hair, deep brown eyes, and the slightly opened corners of his mouth reveal a serious yet friendly temperament.

"Thank you both for coming all the way to help Raghaval get through this crisis."

Talonmar's hoarse and magnetic voice came. He looked at the two navy soldiers, a look of relaxation flashed in his eyes.

"Olia told me what happened outside these days. I am very grateful for taking care of my daughter along the way."

"Of course it is the navy's duty to protect the safety of the royal family of the participating countries."

Warring States opened his mouth and gave a set of answers to the franchised countries' version, which eliminated the unfamiliarity when they first met.

"We will stay in Ragwal for a few days until the branch navy arrives. Make sure the pirates don't come back."

His knowledge seemed to capture the knot in Talon's heart that still couldn't be solved, and he added it in a timely manner.

"Really? That's really troublesome for you two. Why not attend the banquet at the palace tonight."

After some thought, Warring States agreed.

Not only because of Garp's pleading expression, but also because he really wanted to communicate with the king about something.

After the formal handover was completed, Talon seemed to relax immediately.

He no longer pretended to be a king, and together with Warring States, they chose a flat place near the stream to sit down.

The tree man Agger on the side also came over and provided a shade for the two of them.

"Ager also said just now that you want to hear their stories.

Talon took out two bottles of wine from nowhere, bit the mouth of the bottle himself, and threw the other bottle to Warring States. "

Warring States caught it, opened the bottle and looked inside.

There is crimson wine inside, and it smells a little sweet. It seems to be brewed with pomegranates.

"Agar, they are crystal sugar pomegranate trees from Boline. They came to Lagwal on a sharp air current during my grandfather's reign 100 years ago."

"Actually, even if you look at how big they are, they are actually less than 100 years old."

Talon pointed to the other tree men in the valley,

"Ager and the others showed up when I was a kid."

Talon sat on the edge of a stone on the riverbank, lost in memories.

"In that era, Ragavall was unable to withstand the joint attacks of several surrounding countries, and finally chose to join the World Government and become a franchise country."

"Although the war is over, the blockade of Ragavall by surrounding islands has never stopped."

Warring States nodded, not to mention 100 years ago, even the surrounding islands are now affiliated countries, and they have not given up the blockade of Lagwal on some resources.

"At that time, it was very difficult to find a Devil Fruit user in Ragwal, let alone a Devil Fruit. There were even cases where foreign people poached local power users with high salaries."

Hire people with high salary...

"This kind of thing happens frequently. My grandfather decided that he must eat the Devil Fruit himself to gain the power to protect the country."

"He sent his attendants to anonymously purchase a Devil Fruit from the end of the first half of the Grand Line, evading several pursuits along the way, and finally sent the Devil Fruit back to Lagwal."

Very touching story....

But what does this have to do with trees?

Warring States suppressed his eagerness to ask and waited patiently for the next step.

"That night, it happened to be the time when the sharp air current came, and countless rainwater and debris from the New World fell from the sky. The captain of the guard climbed the Anor vines despite the heavy rain."

"Perhaps because he was wearing armor, he was struck by lightning several times before he climbed the Anor vines and reached the high ground."

......

"When he climbed to the top unconsciously, he found that the Devil Fruit in his hand had long since dried up, and in his arms was a crystal sugar pomegranate from the New World."

Speaking of this, Agger chuckled and said

"I would also like to thank your grandfather for not being so angry that he ate us directly. Later, he planted us with the idea of ​​​​gamble. Unexpectedly, we all survived. In the end, we all grew into tree people."

"Later, a devil fruit album was released in the sea, and we discovered that the fruit was"

"The ancient species of the animal family, the fruit of Homo sapiens."

Talon looked at Agger angrily, as if expecting him to turn into a monkey.

"It can't be changed. It's possible that all of our seeds have eaten Devil Fruits, so if we divide them into a tree, we can simply maintain the half-animal form, which means we can walk. We don't have much ability at all."

Ager was still joking on the sidelines, but Warring States was completely scorched in place like a lightning strike.

When a pomegranate eats a devil fruit, all the fruits inside gain some power.

What is your relationship with Vegapunk?

Could this be...

The first time in history that a dead creature was given a Devil Fruit.
