Chapter 586
She hadn't expected Lu En to say such a thing.
She let out a bitter laugh: "My lord, what do you want? If it's within our power, we'll do our best to fulfill all your demands—what do you say?"
At this moment,
she deeply regretted it.
She shouldn't have provoked a monster like Fist Demon Lu En!
Now look what's happened.
Lost both the wife and the soldiers.
Summoning a god is easy…
But sending him away is hard!
A great god resides among their Baker Islands—they can barely sleep or eat in peace!
Unless they send away this great god,
they dare not even close their eyes to sleep.
"What do you think you should pay as a price?"
"After all, I saved your life."
Lu En smiled with amusement.
Even though,
without his appearance, Lilyth, this 'stranded one,' would never have encountered any mishap.
But since he had already intervened,
he certainly couldn't leave empty-handed!
Wasn't this the trouble Lilyth had brought upon herself?
Surely he couldn't have made this trip for nothing?
"General, I offer you a Devil Fruit."
"To resolve the misunderstanding between us."
"What do you say?"
Lilyth clenched her teeth.
Then,
she slowly pulled out a wooden box the size of a palm and presented it to Lu En.
"Devil Fruit?"
Lu En's expression showed slight surprise.
Such a treasure exists?
He'd truly underestimated this Baker Haizeilian Alliance.
Over the years…
They must have plundered many merchant ships and kept some extremely valuable items.
That makes perfect sense.
"Give me the details."
Lu En said directly.
Every Devil Fruit carries an extremely high price.
This is beyond doubt.
Even the most useless Animal-type Devil Fruit, once put up for auction, would surely fetch no less than tens of millions of Berries.
Moreover,
some exceptionally rare and precious Devil Fruits…
Are simply unavailable at any price!
For example,
the legendary Surgical Fruit!
Available at no price!
Someone once offered over a billion Berries as a bounty—yet no one could find the Surgical Fruit for trade.
"This is a Paramecia-type Candle Fruit."
Lilyth began her explanation.
"Candle Fruit?"
Lu En's eyes flickered.
He hadn't expected…
This was connected to Baroque Works, founded by Crocodile.
If he remembered correctly,
this Candle Fruit was the Devil Fruit ability of the third-ranked member of Baroque Works in the future.
Yet,
today, Lu En had intercepted it ahead of time.
The Candle Fruit isn't particularly strong.
But it's certainly not weak either.
So,
Lu En was fairly satisfied with this Devil Fruit.
At the very least.
This Devil Fruit was far more precious than those ordinary Animal-type Devil Fruits!
And far more valuable!
Even though Luenbu Society wouldn't eat the Devil Fruit, that didn't stop him from selling it, or giving it to someone he valued to consume.
But just by saving a 'castaway' along the way, he had obtained a Devil Fruit as reward.
With this result,
Lu En naturally wouldn't feel dissatisfied.
Although.
This Devil Fruit as reward wasn't something these pirates voluntarily offered up, but something they were forced to hand over to save their lives under his overwhelming strength.
But, what did that have to do with Lu En?
He only knew.
He had gotten a Devil Fruit for nothing.
That, was enough.
Next.
Lu En took the wooden box containing the Candle Fruit.
He opened the wooden box,
and saw a strange fruit with spiral patterns on its surface lying quietly inside.
A fruit resembling an apple.
Its surface was covered in mysterious patterns, looking extraordinarily enigmatic and eerie.
Dazzling to the eyes,
it gave off an unfathomably mysterious aura.
Faintly,
a voice like a demon's tempted Lu En to swallow this Devil Fruit.
"The voice of a demon?"
Lu En smiled faintly, unconcerned.
This tiny bit of temptation wasn't enough to make him swallow this Devil Fruit.
If it were the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, hailed as the strongest Devil Fruit, that would be more like it.
Of course.
Even if there really were a Tremor-Tremor Fruit…
Whether he would ultimately swallow it in the end was still uncertain.
