Chapter 406: Chiba's Talent And Perseverance
Marco also wants to exchange his Devil Fruit for an artificial Devil Fruit made by Chiba to improve his strength.
"Captain Chiba, are you free? I want to talk to you." Marko said politely.
"Go ahead." Chiba said with a slight smile.
He knew that Marco was a person who would not disturb him easily, since he came to find him, there must be something important.
Marco looked at the full bookshelves, tables, cabinets, and various Devil Fruits, instruments, reagents, notebooks, etc. on the shelves.
He felt as if he had entered a mysterious and wise world.
He couldn't help admiring Chiba's talent and perseverance. He couldn't imagine how Chiba had mastered so much knowledge and technology in such a short period of time.
"Why, interested?" Chiba looked at Marco and asked with a smile. He also has a good impression and interest in Marco, he thinks Marco is a courageous and loyal person, and he also wants to know how Marco's Devil Fruit works.
"Captain Chiba, I would like to ask you for a favor." Marco said directly. He doesn't want to beat around the bush, he knows Chiba is a busy and efficient person who doesn't like wasting time.
"What's busy?" Chiba asked curiously.
"I want you to study my Devil Fruit and see if you can improve or enhance its effect." Marko said. He is very satisfied with his Devil Fruit, but he also has some troubles and doubts. He wants to know that his Devil Fruit has untapped potential and has been unable to awaken. He wants to find a way to awaken the fruit from Chiba.
"Your Devil Fruit"~?" Chiba's eyes lit up, and he became interested immediately. He knew that Marco had bird fruit, phantom beast species, and phoenix forms. This is a very rare and powerful Devil Fruit, which can make The user becomes a giant blue phoenix covered in flames, with the ability to fly, regenerate and heal.
This Devil Fruit belongs to the highest level Eudemons type in Zoan, and also has the flame type with special attributes. Chiba has always wanted to study this kind of Devil Fruit, but he didn't have the opportunity to talk to Marco. He also had scruples about what happened in Marineford back then.
"Will you let me study your Devil Fruit? Do you know what that means?" Chiba said.
"I know." Marco nodded. He knew that letting Chiba study his own Devil Fruit meant exposing his secrets and weaknesses, and he had to bear certain risks and costs. But he believes that Chiba will not harm or take advantage of himself, and he believes that Chiba can bring him more gains and help.
"Then why did you let me study your Devil Fruit? Are you not satisfied with your Devil Fruit?" Chiba asked curiously.
"I have been unable to wake up for a long time, and I have tried many methods to no avail." Marko said. He is very proud of his fruit, but also has some regrets and confusion. He wanted to know that seeing the people around him, their fruit abilities were awakening one by one, but he hadn't changed much. If things go on like this, how can he help Ace?
He now covers himself in flames or transforms into a phoenix form that can only heal himself. If his fruit ability is awakened, is it possible? Use this energy to heal others as well.
"I see." Chiba nodded in understanding. He found Marco's ideas meaningful and challenging. He wants to help Marco realize his wish, and also wants to take this opportunity to increase his knowledge and mastery of Devil Fruit.
"So do you have any conditions? What do you want me to give you in return?" Chiba asked. He knew that Marco would not let himself study his Devil Fruit in vain, there must be certain exchange conditions.
"I want an artificial Devil Fruit that you made." Marko said. He knows that Chiba can create artificial Devil Fruit, and the effect is no less than real Devil Fruit. He wants a man-made Devil Fruit to further enhance his strength, so that it can become Ace's most powerful assistant and help Ace pursue the road of kingship.
"A man-made Devil Fruit, this is just a trivial matter, so I promise you. During this time, I also made some other man-made Devil Fruits. If you have the ones you like, you can take them away, but I can also make them for you. Specially create a man-made Devil Fruit [you may tell me which ability you fancy. I will find a way to help you make it.
Chiba said with a smile.
Marko also showed a smile on his face when he heard the words: "Then thank you, Captain Chiba. Logia is a man-made Devil Fruit. Shiny (Nuo Li's) fruit, Frozen Fruit. Such a powerful Logia fruit."
"This is a bit difficult. If there is such an opportunity, I will help you get such a fruit. So can we start our research now?" Chiba said. He decides to accept Marco's conditions and starts researching Marco's Devil Fruit.
"Thank you, Captain Chiba [I can start anytime." Marco smiled gratefully and delighted. He trusted and respected Ye even more. He believes that Yu Ye can bring surprises and breakthroughs to himself.
"It's better to hit the sun than to choose the day, so let's start today." Chiba also smiled, and in the following time, Chiba began to conduct a comprehensive research on Mark. .
