Both Guzen and laffitte has finished there greetings, while Joshua headed to the room he stayed in, then went in and locked the door. He sat down then opened the system interface and took out a weird looking fruit, it was a oval shape with bright yellow colour . The black lines on the fruit was in a spiral pattern and with the stem having a wavy look and its end also had a spiral pattern as well.
This fruit is a devil fruit.
When Joshua was raiding the ship Carl travelled on, he was able to get 80 miillion baileys from it. Therefore, with this amount and the previous, Joshua's net work was up to 130 millions now which made him nod in satisfication. How could he not, Carl death was not in vain after all, he had made Joshua gain a little wealth which can be used when needed in the future.
Even so Joshua did not immediately leave the ship but searched every corner of the ship to see if he missed something. At the time Joshua was about to leave he found a fruit which was locked away in a digged out section of the wall behind a picture frame. The fruit had weird patterns which made Joshua immediately know what it is.
Devil fruit
He was suprised he never thought would run into another devil fruit after leaving the island so soon which made him little startled and commented that is luck seems to be not bad.
From what the system says the devil fruit in his hand was a paramecia fruit which grants the user incredible speed. The speed speed fruit. For this fruit to appear here its means that the person who was to suppose to the eat the fruit has not come in contact with the fruit yet. But it seems like Joshua got it coincidentally, which will now mess up the original plot a little. Joshua did not really remember the person who eat the fruit from the original works but it did not matter know.
"Because such person will not appear in now," Joshua said as his eyes flickered with a cold light.
It might not be overpowered like the glint glint fruit that Kizaru uses but it is a extremely good fruit. It may not be the best but it is not the worst and there are never any useless fruits in this world. In the world of one piece many fruit are eaten by persons which are really rare and powerful but wasted it by not developing the fruit power .
For as long as the person who develops this fruit properly, becoming a powerhouse of the quasi-admiral is not impossible.
Even though the fruit is good it did not catch Joshua eyes, for him who has already have a powerful fruit and still debating if he should eat it would not look on this fruit. Even though the fruit is not bad he would not look on a fruit that is lower or not equal to it the one he has now. It is not that he looked down on the fruit but when you are already at a certain level don't try to go under. Therefore, he only took it and placed it in the system's space. Now with the millions of bailey and a good fruit Joshua was really satisfied by the unexpected benefits that Carl's death had brought.
However, what made Joshua puzzled was that why did Carl keep the fruit and not eat it which made him wonder what he could be waiting on. Also, why did he carry it with him and stash it somewhere for same keeping. But Joshua shook his head as he threw these messy thoughts behind his head.
"It does not matter now, he is dead and what he had is now mine," Joshua thought as he looked on the fruit. He got up with the fruit in his hand and went through the door. When Joshua got outside he saw Laffitte tapping like the usual while Guzen was busy cutting himself. When Joshua saw this he just shook his head while he walked towards Guzen.
Guzen who saw Joshua walking towards him stopped and looked on him.
"Boss who are we going to kill, Guzen licked his lips as he asked with a hint of bloodthristiness.
"No one, well no one yet aleast," Joshua calmly replied.
"I see..."
"But thats not what I'm here to you for , I want to give you this fruit," Joshua added as he took ou the fruit out a box.
"This...is a devil fruit," Guzen said in a little suprised obviously knowing what a devil fruit is.
Laffitte who saw this eyes flashes a little, he wasn't suprised about the devil fruit in Joshua's hand cause he was also there when Joshua found it.
"It seems you know some things Laffitte," smiled as he looked on whats happening before him. But Guzen didn't not pay attention to him cause his eyes was still on the devil fruit, the greed and excited look was written all over his face.
"Boss really," Guzen looked on Joshua as he asked in a excited tone.
Yes...
"Okay but what type of fruit is it," he responded with a slightly distorted expression.
"Its a paramecia type devil fruit even though its common there are alot of rare and powerful ones and this one is of a good grade. The speed speed fruit. Futhermore, I think this fruit will suit you well." Joshua said slowly.
Yes, Joshua has decided to give Guzen the fruit.The reason his simple Guzen techniques are good and his abilties are profound but thats not techically it. With all those his speed is what top it off and so if he eats this fruit an all round improvemnt would occur especially to his speed. Futhermore, Joshua have never thought that Guzen will waste the fruit cause as time goes he will have more strong and talented persons to join his crew. For Guzen who have travelled with him the earliest and longest would not want to be at the bottom of the group's strength in the future, so Joshua is sure he will not waste the fruit's potential.
"Heheehe it seems like a good fruit," he chuckled as he stared intensely at the fruit not really understand what Joshua said about the devil fruit type. But when he heard the name of it, his eyes lit up, fully knowing that this fruit would fit him nicely.
You might think his behaviour his somewhat rash but Joshua didn't think so. As long as he has the strength to suppress everything he was not the least bit worried about Guzen's betrayal and if he really betrays, well... just kill him then.
Then may I....
Then Joshua handed him the fruit.
