Pirate: My saber is a shining single scabbard

Two days later.

"Secret Garden" bar.

Somewhere in the corner, Hughes was sitting on the sofa quietly drinking wine.

There was an empty wine glass placed opposite, obviously waiting for someone.

Although he is a little wary of this bar, he still likes to drink, rest and socialize with friends in this quiet atmosphere.

Hughes suddenly looked at the sofa beside him, frowned and said, "Scabbard, drink less..."

The single scabbard completely ignored Hughes's words.

It was wrapping a bottle of wine with the ribbon at the end of the sword's hilt, and poured the wine down with a slurp.

The wine fell on the scabbard and disappeared instantly.

Hughes was amazed by this scene.

The scabbard has no mouth, its body is the eye on the hilt.

Both the scabbard and the sword body are the homes where this eye resides.

What surprised Hughes even more was the variety of wine.

The wine that Solo Scabbard drinks is called 'Ian Bulu', which means 'wine brewed from iron'.

He recalled the scene when Duo Scabbard came into contact with this kind of wine for the first time, and he still couldn't laugh or cry.

At that time, the King Kong Barbie waiter walked past him carrying several bottles of wine on a tray.

Then, as if Luffy saw a huge piece of meat, the single sword scabbard stretched out the ribbon and rolled up one of the bottles of wine.

This bottle of wine is 'Ian Bulu', also known as 'Iron Wine'.

He later found out that the wine was made by throwing steel beams into the drink, adding other ingredients, and fermenting it for several days.

It is said that 'iron wine' has a powerful aphrodisiac effect, and men who drink it will become men of steel.

After knowing the origin of Iron Wine, he understood why the waiter's eyes looked so strange at that time.

The emotional waiter regarded him as the kind of weak and helpless pirate who couldn't wait to grab the 'Iron Wine' in order to show off his power!

No wonder after that time, when he went into the back room to sell stolen goods, the landlady would look at him like that.

Sigh...it's mostly tears.

come back...

Hughes looked at the single sword scabbard who was drinking happily and asked the doubts in his heart.

"Could this wine make your sword stronger?"

"Or are you just greedy and want to drink?"

The single scabbard just shook the sword body without responding.

He didn't know what it meant.

At this time...

pat~

A muscular man opened the bar door.

There was a ferocious scar on his face and he was holding a large suitcase in his hand.

When Hughes saw Ed appear in his field of vision, he quickly stood up and said hello.

tata tao~

Ed quickly walked up to Hughes.

Then the two of them raised their right arms in unison and bumped into each other several times in a fancy manner.

After three years of baptism, Hughes has become very calm in making this shameful gesture.

After the two sat down, they started chatting and laughing from time to time.

Whether it's Hughes or Ed...

It’s been a long time since I let down my guard like this and communicated with others in a relaxed and joyful way.

for a long time...

Ed looked at the single sword scabbard with three bottles of wine already opened, couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked:

"Do you know how the outside world evaluates this knife?"

"They said it was a demon sword with a demon living in it."

"The reason why Baker Hughes can suck human flesh and blood is because he was bewitched by demons!"

Hughes chuckled and shook his head.

This is true to some extent.

There is indeed a ghost living in this knife, and it is indeed because of this knife that he can suck human flesh and blood.

And he won't tell the real situation.

Hughes thought of an explanation.

"Just think of this knife as a knife that ate a devil fruit."

"In the Grand Line, weapons that eat Devil Fruit are rare, but they do exist."

"Is that so..."

Ed didn't ask too much, so what about the demon knife or the vampire demon.

He is no longer the righteous Leng Tou Qing he used to be.

Then Hughes got down to business.

"Ed, have you thought clearly?"

"The Chain Fruit has powerful side effects, so do you still want to eat it?"

While talking, Hughes was trying to recall some scenes from the One Piece anime.

When the landlady talked about the Chain Fruit, he felt a little familiar.

Later I remembered that this fruit did appear in the animation.

In the Pure Gold chapter, its villain is the one with the Chain Fruit ability.

He uses his ability to create wounds on the surface of his body before he can launch chains from his body.

Every time you shoot a chain, you have to hurt yourself once.

And the power gained at the cost of hurting oneself is indeed powerful.

That villain was able to fight Luffy using his Haki using only chains.

boom!

Ed put the large suitcase on the table.

"3.5 million Baileys, I bought the Chain Fruit."

"I'm very aware of the side effects, but I can't afford to be picky about something like this that comes only by chance!"

"And this level of physical pain is far incomparable to the hatred in my heart!"

"This kind of pain will only temper my lack of will and spur me to become stronger all the time!"

Seeing that Ed had made up his mind, Hughes said nothing more.

boom!

A small treasure chest was placed on the table, and Hughes pushed it in front of Ed.

Ed picked up the treasure box and opened it, looking at the devil fruit inside, his body trembling slightly.

A treasure from the sea that most people would never see once in their lifetime was now in front of him.

In order to prevent long nights of nightmares, Ed planned to eat the Devil Fruit immediately.

Hughes suddenly mentioned from the side: "I heard... you have to eat it all to have any effect."

Perhaps out of his true intention, or perhaps out of trust in his friends, Ed endured the pain and ate the Devil Fruit completely.

Hughes asked curiously: "Tell me, which one tastes more delicious, devil fruit or shit?"

Ed closed his eyes, feeling the new ability and responded:

"If you can tell what it feels like to eat shit, then I can try to compare!"

"That's it."

Hughes took the suitcase containing 3.5 million beli.

In fact, if it was Ed, he would be willing to give it directly to the other party.

He acquired this devil fruit mainly for Ed.

As his only friend, the other party was once very kind to him.

Now that he was in trouble, he always felt that he had to do something.

As for why we collected 3.5 million beli in the end...

That's because he knew that with Ed's self-esteem, he would not accept this kind of kindness that meant charity.

The person who gives the special charity is one's close friend.

slap~

Hughes opened the suitcase and looked at Bailey who was stuffed tightly. He felt like he had made a fortune.

Then I planned in my mind how to use the money.

Buy a knife?unnecessary.

Buying a boat?He can't drive alone.

Eating, drinking and whoring...ahem.

As for eating and drinking, it does cost a lot considering his appetite.

moment...

Hughes saw Ed open his eyes, with some excitement on his face.

"Let's go, find a place and let me see what you are capable of."

Ed himself also wanted to familiarize himself with the new abilities he had acquired, and agreed to Hughes' proposal.

slap~

Hughes closed the suitcase and carried it in his hand, stood up and walked out the door.

The scabbard of the single sword was suspended beside Hughes, flying step by step.

The two of them quickly left the bar, exited the wine street, and moved quickly toward the outskirts of the island.
