Twenty-third Demon Fruit in Hand
It's almost time. On the high platform, a simple chef with thick eyebrows and big eyes began to speak to the phone bug in front of him.
These speeches at the conference are the same as that of Cardo's previous life. They are the same and have not changed at all.
After the greeting, the rules that this guy said made Cardo listen carefully.
"Precious ingredients will be cooked on the spot by famous chefs"
"After the appraisal of the conference, the top ten precious ingredients are owned, and the opportunity to taste delicious food can be given first"
"Every supplier of ingredients has the opportunity to taste his own prey"
In a large speech, these few words are still a little reliable. It seems that the chef alliance does not directly confiscate the ingredients. It cooks secretly by itself, and the cooked food will also be invited to taste.
"Hey hey, I don't know what my miscellaneous golden scale brocade fish tastes like. I must taste it later." Cardo smiled strangely and was proud of his little trick.
After coming here for a long time, the guy on the stage also felt that it was almost time and announced the beginning of the evaluation.
Those impatient people were finally relieved, and the focus of the conference finally began.
Pirates or other people who specialize in the competition transport their ingredients to the high platform of the Chef League.
Some ingredients are frozen by ice in order to keep fresh, and some are directly ** outside, allowing the smell of blood and fishy smell everywhere.
Cardo's golden scale fish is put in a pocket, which is tightly covered. Cardo and others are also afraid of something unexpected at the end.
This conference has also given Carduo a lot of experience. There are many strange things, such as dozens of meters of whales, a few centimeters of lobsters, and crabs with a grinding plate. Anyway, as long as it is in the sea, you can see it here.
Some people even directly moved the overlord category to participate in the competition, which surprised Cardo a lot.
The ingredients are identified by the Chefs Alliance. Some people are depressed. What they get is either not precious enough or cannot be eaten directly. More people's faces are full of smiles. Although they know that they are unlikely to win the championship, they can taste these famous chefs for free. They are satisfied with what is cooked.
"Participation is the first, the competition is the second, little brother, don't be discouraged, it's the same to win the championship or not"
A strong man with a tall figure, when he saw Cardo's backpack, he thought that Cardo had obtained some inedible ingredients. He was afraid of embarrassment and didn't dare to let people see it at all. He actually comforted Cardo.
"Uh-huh, definitely, definitely"
Haha, I sent the warm-hearted strong man away. Cardo wiped his cold sweat. What's the matter? I put the ingredients in my backpack. It must be too rubbish to see anyone.
After a good line, it was finally his turn. Cardo threw his backpack in front of the judge who had just spoken and shouted:
"Where's the devil's fruit? Bring it quickly. I have something else to do."
"I haven't seen it yet. Who knows what's in you?"
The guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes looked at Cardo with resentment. Cardo had a chill and wentose bumps all over his body.
"God, what kind of evil did I create? I actually ran to this kind of sissy to evaluate"
Although he is extremely regretful, he can't get it back directly from others. Cardo can only let the guy in front of him identify it.
"It's been a morning of identification, and there are no good goods. It's so tiring."
The judge slowly took the package and planned to take a look.
"Oh, my God!"
A sharp scream resounded throughout the square, and the judge exclaimed as if he was about to be **.
"This, this is gold." The judge looked at the golden light in his pocket and shivered: "No, no, this is a golden scale fish."
"Oh, my God, this must be golden scale brocade fish, a rare and precious ingredient for decades. I thought this kind of thing only existed in legends, but I didn't expect it to be true!"
The judge breathed a sigh of relief and said in a normal tone.
"Come on, come on, get out of the way, let me have a look"
"Don't get in the way, you just get out of the way and let me pass."
"Damn, whoever stepped on my foot can't slow down"
In an instant, more than a dozen judges rushed to Cardo, surrounded the pocket of the golden scale brocade fish, and squeezed into a ball, and even Cardo was squeezed away.
"Oh, my God, it's true, this is really a golden scale fish"
"I'm so tired. I didn't expect that I would be able to cook this legendary ingredient one day." An old man burst into tears.
"Who said you were asked to cook? What qualifications do you have to cook? I didn't like it." Another old man scolded, "If you want to cook, I'll cook it. For your stinky level, cooking golden scale brocade fish is a waste."
"Don't grab it, everyone has a share, declare first, I want a fish head"
"I want tenderloin"
"I want a fish tail"
"Why do you want a fish tail? I still want it. It's just right to make my braised fish tail."
In an instant, the chaos happened again.
The crowd around looked at this unprecedented scene in the field and was stunned. The judges on the high platform pulled together, some scolded each other, and some even fought.
"Chive it all!"
Cardo roared loudly, and finally, the judges stopped.
"It's not the time for you to divide things. Hurry up and give me the devil's fruit, not give me the devil's fruit. None of you have a chance to cook this golden scale brocade fish," Cardo said.
"Oh, yes, why are you still stunned? Give it to him quickly."
"However, the hunting competition is not over yet"
"What are you waiting for to end? It's good for this legendary ingredient to appear once. Do you still expect one to compete with this one?"
"No, no, that's not what I mean"
"Why don't you give it to him quickly?" Several old men urged loudly.
The sissy judge was stunned for a moment, and finally took out a women's bag from his arms, took out an apple-sized thing from it, and handed it to Cardo.
"Here, this is yours, and the golden scale brocade fish belongs to us." After saying a sissy, she suddenly turned around and rushed to the golden scale brocade fish: "You guys, save some for them!"
"What, it's so simple to get it." Cardo looked at the devil's fruit in front of him, with an unbelievable face: "I wipe, if I had known that they were not put in some secret place, I would have stolen the devil's fruit long ago, and it took so much trouble there."
Cardo regretted it. He didn't expect that these chefs just put the devil's fruit in such a lady's backpack at will. Originally, he thought that these guys would definitely treasure the devil's fruit and put it in a secret place.
Cardo turned his head and looked at the coveted pirates under the high platform. He thought for a moment and put the devil's fruit into his mouth.
"My grass, it's disgusting, what does it taste like?"
An indescribable taste spread from Cardo's mouth to his whole body, just like Cardo accidentally ate a stinky egg before. It was terrible.
"Sure enough, this thing is really bad. It seems that it should be the real devil's fruit." Cardo thought about it. In the cartoons of the previous life, it was also said that the devil's fruit was unpalatable and had different shapes. The apple-like thing in his hand should be the devil's fruit.
He endured the pain and ate all the devil's fruit. Cardo couldn't help testing his new ability, but now there are too many people here to be suitable for testing. Cardo opened his legs, waved his hand to Feth and Sanji, and ran directly in the direction of Cardo.
"Chase me, this boy is going to run away. The snow bear boss said, you must catch this guy anyway." This is the people of the Snow Bear Pirates
"Brothers, come with me. This guy has the devil's fruit. Let's grab it." This is a pirate who doesn't know that Cardo has eaten the devil's fruit.
"How dare you defeat our captain, I want you to live worse than death" This is the remnant of the cuckold Pirates.
"Brothers, there is a strong onlooker, there is a lively look." This is the onlooker's mass pirates.
"Damn, I knew these guys didn't have good intentions"
Cardo turned his head and looked at the swarming pirates behind him. His legs were faster and he ran away.
"What kind of ability is it?"
Cardo pinched himself. There was no feeling of change. It should not be natural.
"Animals, Transformation"
Carduo shouted. After shouting, Cardo blushed: "Damn it, why do I still recite spells!"
The body is still as usual, and there is no difference. It is certain that it is not the ability of the animal family.
Then there is only Superman. Cardo is running while checking his body.
PS: Spoiler, lock fruit, is the opposite of Bruno's door fruit. Our protagonist locks things, of course, it's not just locking the door.
