c229 I am short of money

Golden fruit?

Hearing what Crocodile said, not only Doflamingo, but also Aiden, Tiger and others beside him couldn’t help but be taken aback.

They had never heard Crocodile mention this matter before, and now it was brought up suddenly, which naturally made people extremely puzzled.

And if Lynn himself was present, he must have been puzzled and shocked by what Crocodile said.

What does he want the golden fruit for?

As for what the golden fruit is, Lynn is naturally very clear.

Golden fruit, also known as golden fruit, is a kind of superhuman devil fruit.

The essence of its ability is to “manipulate gold”.

Ability users can control the stretching and deformation of the gold they touch, and they can also temporarily assimilate the touched objects into gold through gold powder or gold.

Although there are defects such as the assimilated gold will return to the original object when it comes into contact with sea water, and the inability to create gold out of thin air, the golden fruit is still a superhuman devil fruit with a high degree of freedom and developability.

As for the future “owner” of this fruit, it is an extremely ups and downs story.

In the future, the man who ate the golden fruit is named Gilder Tezzolo.

Tezzolo was born in a very poor family. He loved singing and performing since he was a child. His favorite thing is to watch entertainment performances from outside the venue.

His father was a gambler and died of alcoholism, and his mother hated Tezolo’s singing because of poverty, so Tezolo ran away from his family at the age of twelve.

When wandering on the streets, Tezolo made a living by stealing, and made a group of cronies with money.

At the age of sixteen, Tezolo was defeated in a casino, and he was caught and sold by slave traders, but his cronies and dog friends immediately abandoned him. escape. .

And it was at the most desperate time in his life that Tezolo met the girl who changed his life.

Her name is “Stella”.

Stella was a trafficked slave, he thought Tezolo’s singing was great, and the two got along very well.

Tezolo decided to let Stella get free. Since then, Tezolo has never done bad things again and started working day and night.

He needs money, and only money can save Stella!

At the age of nineteen, when Tezolo was about to collect the money to buy Stella, the Tianlongren just appeared and bought Stella with ease.

An angry Tezolo threw a tantrum at the Draco and was caught.

Stella told Tezolo that it was because of Tezolo’s existence that she felt happy from the bottom of her heart.

Afterwards, Tezolo became a big criminal and was taken to the holy land of Mariejoa, where he became a slave to the Celestial Dragons. He couldn’t even laugh without permission.

In desperation, Tezzolo still had a glimmer of hope, because he felt that Stella, who was also taken away, was also in the Holy Land Marie Gioia.

However, when Tezzolo was twenty-one years old, he got the news of Stella’s death.

The only hope in despair, shattered.

Because Tianlong people are rich, can they buy everything?

——Tezolo roared in his heart and asked questions, and since then he has become more obsessed with money.

And when Tezzolo was twenty-six years old, another big event happened:

Fisher Tiger, the murloc hero, made a big fuss in the holy land of Mary Joa, freeing countless slaves!

Tezzolo took the opportunity to escape and began his wandering life on the sea, while growing hatred for the nobles and the rich.

After that, it is what should have happened in the future.

When Tezolo was twenty-nine years old, the Don Quixote family had successfully launched the Dressrosa Rebellion, ousted King Liku from power, and successfully captured the entire country of Dressrosa.

Subsequently, the Don Quixote family held an auction for the “Golden Fruit”. At that time, Doflamingo wanted to use the “Golden Fruit” as a gimmick, but had no real intention to sell the Golden Fruit.

However, what Doflamingo didn’t expect was that Tezolo, who got the news, led a group of thugs to make trouble, causing a big incident, and managed to take advantage of the chaos to get the golden fruit, and then ate it.

Since then, Tezolo has been silent for three years.

Three years later, the 32-year-old Tezolo’s reputation gradually rose, and Doflamingo finally knew the culprit in the incident three years ago, but the fruit had already been eaten.

And Tezolo, who was targeted by the Don Quixote family, already has a very strong fighting power, and the two parties put aside their past hatred and became business partners.

At the age of thirty-five, Tezolo already had a stable career and substantial subordinates, and based on this, he built the giant ship Grantesoro.

The “power of money” he hated had become his own.

Tezolo paranoidly believes that when facing rich people, he should become an even richer person and let them succumb to his feet.

He hoped that one day, the Tianlong people would also kneel before this power.

“I am the one who wants to be the god of this world. There is nothing money can’t buy, and people without money can’t do anything.” ——Tezolo always thinks so.

Ever since, he became a man nicknamed [Golden Emperor].

At the peak of his career, Tezolo owned 20% of the Baileys in the world, taking both black and white, using the power of money to freely manipulate the Tianlong people, and even use the power of the world government.

In the underground world, Tezolo is the golden emperor who uses money to rule the dark world. His power spreads all over the world, and his status is equal to that of Doflamingo, or even higher in a certain sense!

When Tezolo was forty-one years old, he had a duel with the Straw Hat Pirates and was eventually defeated. He was arrested by the then CP0 chief Rob Lucci and imprisoned in the city of advancement.

This is what happened to the golden fruit and its owner in the future.

Back to the present time.

At this time, just two years have passed since Tiger made a fuss in the holy land of Mariejoa, and the Don Quixote family has not launched the Dressrosa Rebellion, so Tezolo should still be lurking in secret, and the golden fruit is still in Dover Brother Ming’s hands.

“How do you know?” asked Doflamingo from the phone bug.

Crocodile shrugged, “I found it in Punk Hazard’s research institute. In your communication with Caesar, the golden fruit was studied by Caesar as an experiment for a period of time.”

“That idiot Caesar…”

Doflamingo cursed secretly, then frowned again.

The reason why the existence of the golden fruit was discovered is indeed reasonable.

only……

Crocodile has already eaten the rustling fruit, so what does he need the golden fruit for?

Doflamingo thought for a while, and asked directly.

After all, the more you talk, the more likely you are to be exposed—for both parties.

“What do you want the golden fruit for?”

Crocodile sneered a few times and replied, “I’m short of money.”

Um?

Hearing such an answer, Doflamingo’s face showed an unstoppable sneer.

Lack of money? Do you think I will trust you?

“Hey, hey, it seems that if we don’t meet each other, we don’t intend to tell the truth.”

Doflamingo laughed a few times, and then agreed: “Okay, to ensure the safety of my family members, follow the guidance of the phone bug to find me – the premise is that the monster Lynn Barek is not allowed to Come close to me, or I will immediately find some trash and eat the golden fruit, and then kill him.”

“Hehehehe, don’t worry, can’t you hear the movement on Wangzhi Heights? He is fighting back and forth with that fit bastard right now?”

Click!

Immediately, Crocodile hung up the phone.

Seeing this, Aiden asked curiously, “Mr. Crocodile, what is your real purpose for wanting that devil fruit?”

Crocodile shrugged and said seriously, “I’m really short of money.”

Aiden was a little moved when he heard the words, “Is it because when Mr. Lynn asked you for money, you couldn’t give it, so you blamed yourself?”

Crocodile: “…”

I almost forgot, Aiden Sedia – armed and domineering genius, has always been short of mind.

Crocodile ignored him.

But Crocodile is telling the truth:

The ability of the golden fruit is very special. It can greatly solve the problems of gold smelting and transportation by manipulating gold.

If done right, this ability can indeed bring great wealth.

And Crocodile needs money, lots and lots of money.

Why?

Because shipbuilding costs money.

Because it costs a lot of money to build a big ship.

Because it costs more money to build the most dangerous ships in history.

The most dangerous ship in history had a name—

[Ancient Weapon] Pluto!
