Chương 1949: Battle of the North Sea (93)

As for CP0, apart from the five members who are somewhat acceptable, the rest of the members are extremely rare.

Faced with this predicament, the five men bowed their heads in unison, filled with remorse, and said, "We have failed your expectations, sir!"

But Satan suddenly changed the subject, slowly raising the mysterious treasure box in his hand and displaying it to everyone.

Then, in a seductive tone, he announced, "This contains an extremely rare and precious Zoan-type Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, whose value is immeasurable, as you all know. Today, I will bestow upon you a rare opportunity—if any one of you manages to obtain this fruit, their strength will advance by leaps and bounds, propelling them into the ranks of Admirals!"

As he spoke, Saint Satan carefully held the treasure box, his gaze fixed intently on the five people before him, each word seeming to strike their hearts heavily.

Upon hearing this, the five people present couldn't help but gasp. Their breathing became rapid and heavy, as if they could hear their own hearts pounding.

Everyone's eyes were like those of hungry wolves, fixed on the treasure box in Satan's hand that emitted a mysterious light.

That's a legendary Devil Fruit!

Moreover, it's an extremely rare Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit!

This level of treasure is even more valuable than Logia-type Devil Fruits, making it priceless.

It should be noted that anyone who possesses a Zoan-type Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit is among the strongest in the sea world, with unfathomable power.

"Would you like to have this fruit?"

Satan Saint slightly raised the corners of his mouth, looking at the five people in front of him with a half-smile, his eyes flashing with a hint of cunning and mockery.

"I'm willing to follow your instructions!"

Without hesitation, the five knelt down on one knee again, answering with firm and earnest words.

\"very good! \" Saint Satan nodded in satisfaction, but then changed the subject: "However... there are five people here, but only one Devil Fruit. I'm sure you all know how to divide it up, right?"

As he spoke, he slowly scanned each person's face, seemingly observing their reactions.

As soon as he finished speaking, the tense atmosphere suddenly changed, and an indescribable, subtle feeling filled the air.

Five pairs of eyes met, and the intense competition between them was palpable.

The rivalry among CP0 members, in particular, has intensified to the point of near-fever.

Everyone knew in their hearts that this battle for Devil Fruits would be exceptionally fierce and ruthless.

Just then, Saint Satan suddenly spoke up: "Tomorrow, I will await you all in the dueling arena to settle your differences!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked straight into his office with the treasure box in his hand.

The remaining five members remained standing silently, but their eyes seemed to reveal a hint of tension and hostility when they met.

After a long while, someone finally broke the silence—a relatively frivolous voice rang out: "Wow, it's a Zoan-type Mythical Beast! Our lord is truly ruthless!"

Immediately afterward, a young man with long, flowing emerald-green hair, appearing quite carefree and unrestrained, slowly spoke: "You know, this level of mythical beast is far rarer than those so-called nature-type beasts! If you could successfully obtain one, then even joining the ranks of the world's most powerful beings would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?"

As the speaker spoke, a greedy glint appeared on his lips.

The mysterious man in black, who always wore a mask and stood in the corner, couldn't contain his excitement and chimed in, "That's right, exactly! A Mythical Beast... something countless people dream of! Now that the opportunity is right before my eyes, how can I let it slip by? No matter what, I must acquire it!"

After saying that, a kind of almost manic light emanated from his eyes, which were mostly covered by a mask.

Finally, it was the turn of the young gentleman in a crisp white suit to speak.

He crossed his arms, his face displaying an arrogant and disdainful expression, and coldly uttered a harsh remark: "Hmph, a Mythical Beast, huh? Haha, let's wait and see who emerges victorious!"

After saying this, he turned and left without looking back, leaving the other four standing there, watching their extremely aloof and cold companion walk further and further away.

"What do you all think? Should we join forces and eliminate him tomorrow? You see, this person was known as the 'strongest CP9 member in 500 years' when he was young, and now he has been promoted to CP0 so early. If my expectations are correct, his strength should be among the best of us! Why not use him as a training target to annihilate him first, and then decide on the ownership of that Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit?"

Another blond, burly man stared at the departing man in the white suit with a cruel and ruthless gaze, and offered advice to his three companions.

"Enough, enough. We're all colleagues, why resort to violence and bloodshed at the drop of a hat? That's just not right!"

The first man to speak, a green-haired, long-bearded man, responded with an air of indifference and nonchalance.

Having said that, he immediately turned around and walked away, leaving behind only a vast and desolate place.

"Hehehehehe... Since that's the case, then it's three against two! Without further ado, let's take action now and eliminate these two guys first!"

The blond, muscular man's eyes gleamed with madness and ferocity as he gritted his teeth and spoke viciously.

His voice seemed to come from the depths of hell, sending chills down one's spine.

Upon hearing this, the two accomplices standing nearby did not object.

They knew that the blond, muscular man in front of them was no good, and if they didn't do as he said, they would probably not escape death either.

Moreover, they all knew very well that only by eliminating these two people first could they ensure that everything would go smoothly when they fought for the Devil Fruit tomorrow.

After all, these two people pose a huge threat!

The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight pierced through the clouds and fell upon the earth, the five elders quietly arrived at the dueling arena.

At this moment, the entire arena was unusually quiet, without a breath of wind, and even the leaves seemed to have stopped rustling.

The arena has been cleared out, and the stands, which should have been packed with spectators, are now completely empty.

Only the five elders sitting on the platform and the five CP0 members standing in the arena remained.
