Luffy mumbled, but at least he was barely understandable.
Zoro's eyes widened as he said, "A Contract Mission that can make your fists stronger?"
It was more likely that he had eaten a poisonous Devil Fruit and his brain had been damaged.
"Idiot Luffy, I saved you from the cage, so this fruit can be considered payment for saving your life."
Nami picked up the fruit, but it didn't activate any effects.
It seemed that only non-players could activate the contract fruit, which was indeed as she had thought—a new way for the Reincarnation Game to recruit players.
If she took it to an auction house, it should sell for a high price, right?
This was Nami's thought.
No one in the Pirate World could refuse this contract fruit, or rather, the identity of a Reincarnation Game player.
As long as they knew what the Reincarnation Game meant, whether they were nobles, commoners, pirates, or marines, they would all be unable to resist.
"That's right."
Luffy raised his fist and smashed it towards Zoro.
Zoro quickly raised his scabbard to block the heavy punch, which was imbued with fist energy. The expensive scabbard, which he had bought for a high price, was shattered by the fist energy, revealing the sharp blade inside.
"Idiot, be careful!"
"And… you owe me a new scabbard! This was an expensive scabbard I bought with pirate bounties!"
The blocking motion tugged at his freshly bandaged wounds, making Zoro grimace in pain.
Not only was he worried about himself,
He was also worried about the idiot captain's fist.
Inside the scabbard was the famous sword, Great Claymore Wado Ichimonji, passed down to him by Master Koshiro. If he wasn't careful, he could cut off Luffy's entire arm.
However, when Zoro looked up, he was immediately stunned.
"What is this…"
The fist, enveloped in a punch wind, actually pressed against the sharp blade. Not to mention being cut off, it didn't even break the skin.
Luffy scratched his head and said, "It's just an ability that suddenly appeared in my head, a Contract Mission…"
Zoro fell silent.
He could absolutely guarantee that when the idiot captain fought Marine Captain Morgan earlier, he didn't have such an ability.
Although he didn't suffer any serious injuries, he was still grazed by the axe.
Even though he was passively blocking, in terms of sharpness, that broken axe couldn't compare to his sword at all.
So, it's true?
Although it felt miraculous, this sea was never short of miracles.
Zoro picked up the scabbard fragments with a pained heart.
His pursuit was the way of the sword, to become the world's greatest swordsman. Although this magical contract fruit was powerful, he wasn't interested in it.
Nami's eyes darted around as she asked, "Moss-head, how about I sell this contract fruit to you?"
She thought long and hard.
Behind auction houses were noble powers, or they were controlled by great pirates. Auctioning ordinary gold and silver jewelry was fine.
Once she brought out the contract fruit, it was very likely to trigger the passive abilities of these dirty fellows: murder and treasure snatching.
There was a buyer right in front of her, so why go to the trouble of looking far and wide?
"No."
Zoro refused very directly, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find something that could temporarily repair his scabbard.
Nami showed a seductive smile and said, "The contract fruit doesn't just have skills suitable for idiot Luffy; even for swordsmen, there are countless famous swords and abilities."
Behind the screen,
Fang Yi's expression was strange. He didn't expect Nami to actively help him drum up business for money. She really was a little thieving cat who didn't miss any business opportunities.
"Swordsman abilities, famous swords?"
Zoro suddenly turned his head, even stopping his hand movements.
On his face, which was not much smarter than Straw Hat Luffy's, he couldn't hide his intense interest.
If he had a slight understanding of Nami's personality, he would know that he absolutely couldn't expose his desire.
"That's right."
Nami handed over the fruit, signaling Zoro to pick it up.
Zoro picked up the contract fruit with a look of doubt. Two seconds later, information about the Reincarnation Game appeared in his mind.
Normally,
He would definitely have the same thought as Buggy, not believing it at all, only treating it as someone's trick.
However, the skill reward that the idiot captain received after completing the Contract Mission had already proven the authenticity of the contract fruit.
This left Zoro in a state of half-belief.
Nami looked at the conflicted moss-head and added fuel to the fire, saying, "I am a player of the Reincarnation Game, and I can guarantee that the contract fruit is absolutely real."
With that,
A small creature, radiating silver-white light, with horns and small wings on its back, like a small glowing electric snake, appeared.
It coiled around Nami's arm, affectionately rubbing against her face.
[Demonic Creation: Electro-Eel].
This was an alchemy blueprint that Nami had comprehended after becoming a Magician, and it was a fusion product of alchemy and magic created by spending a huge amount of reward points.
It possessed extremely strong light-attribute attack power and was a core ability of Magicians. Many powerful skills later on had to be released through Demonic Creations.
This was power from the Reincarnation Game.
Zoro looked at the ability, which was completely different from the idiot captain's, making him believe it even more. However, he said helplessly, "I don't have any money."
Although being a pirate hunter sounded glamorous,
The money he could earn wasn't actually that much; it was all spent after a little maintenance of his famous swords and buying some good wine.
Nami smiled slyly, her gaze falling on the famous sword, and said, "How about we use that sword as collateral?"
She had wandered the East Blue for several years, starting out as a thief.
On the path of judging treasures, she had absolute confidence. The sword on his waist was definitely priceless.
"Impossible."
Zoro's face immediately turned cold as he refused, "No one is allowed to covet this sword."
This sword was not only a weapon but also a promise that had to be fulfilled.
"Then there's nothing I can do. It seems I can only sell this contract fruit to the auction house."
Nami said this, but her gaze fell on Straw Hat Luffy. She said, "However, if you can help me defeat Buggy the Clown and let me take the treasure, then this contract fruit can also be used as payment."
"Alright."
Luffy agreed readily.
This immediately stunned Zoro, who flailed his arms and said, "Idiot, can't you tell this woman is using us as pawns? Agreeing so easily to defeat Buggy? He's also a Devil Fruit user, and I'm injured right now. If you fight him alone…"
Luffy picked his nose and said very naturally, "Because I can tell, Zoro, you really want that fruit."
Isn't it a captain's duty to get his crew members what they like?
This attitude, as if he was talking about eating and drinking, as if it was something that had to be done,
Not only Zoro, but even Nami was stunned.
Nami placed the contract fruit on the dining table and said with a complex expression, "Straw Hat idiot, you really don't act like a pirate."
"Of course!"
Luffy showed a big smile, as if stating an established fact, "I'm the man who will become the Pirate King!"
His voice was loud.
Zoro punched him on the head and yelled, "Idiot, the Buggy Pirates will hear us!"
However, the corners of his mouth curved slightly upwards.
