Thunder Fruit?

"What do you need from me?"

The supervisor from before was brought over by Hina, his face very arrogant.

Will took out a few gold coins from his pocket and intentionally played with it. 

Looking at the supervisor with a smile, Will asked: "I will ask you a few questions and if I am satisfied, these will be yours!"

Greed flashed in the supervisor's eyes.

He licked his lower lip, and slowly reached for the leather whip hanging on his waist, intending to snatch the gold coins directly.

Only the next moment, his body froze, and the hand reaching for the whip also stopped as a faint aura leaked from Will's body. 

There was cold sweat on his forehead, and his face was trembling with fear. 

He finally realized that this person in front of him was definitely not someone he can provoke!

"Sure enough, those who can come to Sky Island from Blue Sea are either the lucky ones or the powerful ones. If I had attacked him just now, I would have definitely died!"

While thinking fearfully in his heart, the supervisor's attitude changed 180 degrees, and he bowed slightly to Will humbly.

"You can ask whatever you want, I can answer you, I will tell you everything I know."

"Has anything weird happened on Birka lately?"

Will asked coldly. 

"Strange thing?" The supervisor frowned and pondered.

After a few seconds, he shook his head in denial: "No, Birka has been very peaceful recently, and nothing strange has happened."

Will reminded: "For example, is there anyone who can release lightning out of thin air?"

"Release lightning out of thin air?" Supervisor looked at Will with some surprise and doubt. 

"No, no, how could there be such a person!"

"No?" Will rubbed his chin in understanding, it seemed that Enel hadn't become a Thunder Fruit user yet.

"So, is there any strange fruit on Birka?"

"Strange fruit?"

The supervisor continued to look through the memories in his mind.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he slammed his fist on his palm, looking enlightened. 

"The strange fruit you mentioned, I remembered something!"

"Oh?" Will suddenly regained his spirits, a gleam flashed in his eyes.

"Tell me, what kind of strange fruit is it, and who owns it now?"

Will's words, on the contrary, made the overseer vigilant.

He looked at Will warily: "Why do you want to inquire about the whereabouts of the strange fruit? What do you want to do?"

Will smiled and shook his head: "I don't want to do anything, I'm just interested in some strange fruits.

The overseer looked at Will suspiciously.

"Clatter..."

It's just that when he saw Will throwing the gold coin in his hand up and down, the suspicion in his eyes disappeared.

"Gulu!"

He swallowed with difficulty as the greed in his eyes reappeared.

"The strange fruit you mentioned did not appear recently. That was actually a year ago!"

Will frowned when he heard this.

"A year ago?"

If this was a Thunder Fruit, it would have been eaten long ago, right?

But if there isn't anyone in Birka who can release lightning, it should not be Thunder Fruit or it means it hasn't been eaten yet. But Will was inclined to believe that it was some other fruit. 

Will couldn't help but lose interest in that strange fruit.

He was about to signal the supervisor to stop talking.

But the supervisor pointed to the construction site.

"See that guy?"

Following the direction he was pointing, he found that the person he was pointing at was exactly that boy.

The supervisor laughed and said, "A year ago, he was the one who picked up a strange fruit!"

Now, Will has no hope for the fruit at all and even the last fluke disappeared. 

However, he was very curious about the boy.

"Tell me!"

The supervisor looked around, and then whispered: "At that time, he just picked up that strange fruit, and our god happened to pass by there."

"For some reason, the god was very concerned about that fruit, and asked the priest to snatch it from that guy."

"It is said that the fruit was given by the heavens, and mortals are not qualified to enjoy it, only gods can!"

"And him!"

The overseer pointed at the boy again.

"Because he touched the sacred object privately, he was reduced to a slave and thrown to my side to work on this construction site. "

"A sacred object?" A mocking look appeared in Will's eyes.

It seems that the so-called god is also a man of insight.

And the so-called sacred object, that is, the fruit, is undoubtedly Devil Fruit.

I just don't know what ability this Devil Fruit has. While thinking curiously, Will probed further. 

"What's that guy's name?"

"Him?" The supervisor said indifferently, "It seems to be called... Enel?"

Hearing this name, Will was very surprised.

He carefully looked at the boy over there, but he didn't see a trace of Enel on him.

Oh, there are still a few similarities, that is, there are no wings. But the characteristics ears were missing. Or may be it was something Enel did later on? A plastic surgery may be? 

"But if he is Enel, then, that Devil Fruit must be... "

Even with his calm mind and concentration, his heart couldn't help beating wildly at this moment.

"Huff..... Hufff! "

He exhaled softly to calm himself down and asked further. 

"Then what happened later, was the fruit that was called a sacred object eaten by the god?"

The supervisor shook his head when he heard the words: "I don't know this."

"I am afraid that only those priests can know about the things related to God."

Will was a little disappointed that he didn't get the answer he wanted.

No he had no idea if the Devil Fruit, which may be Thunder Fruit, has been eaten now or not. Although it should be Enel who ate the fruit in original plot but this is a real world after all. Who knows what might happen next, right? 

Suppressing the thought for a moment, Will pointed to Enel over there and said, "That guy, I want to buy him, so make an offer!"

"Him?" The supervisor hesitated.

Enel was demoted to slavery for touching a sacred object. So, if one day God asks about him, he won't be able to explain it.

"Swash!"

Will tossed him a small bag of gold coins.

"It's just a slave, what's there to think about? Just pretend that this person doesn't exist anymore!"

The overseer's eyes lit up, yes, if the higher-ups ask, just say that Enel is dead.

The supervisor quickly put the bag of gold coins into his pocket.

"Then wait a minute, I'll bring you over right now!"

After speaking, he walked over there quickly, and after a while, he brought Enel over who was a little dazed.

The supervisor pointed at Will: "Boy, remember, he will be your master from now on!"

Enel looked at Will in surprise.

Of course, he didn't forget these two people, they were the ones who gave him food before.

But how come they have become his masters now?

"What else do you want?" The supervisor said to Will flatteringly.

Will waved his hand at him: "Go, you have nothing to do here!"

The supervisor didn't care much about Will's attitude either. Anyway, he can't afford to offend him, and he has already gotten the benefits. So it was a win win situation for him. 

After the supervisor left, Will looked Enel up and down.

"Your name is Enel?"

Enel was also looking at Will, and nodded upon hearing this: "I am. And thank you just now for the food!"

Will asked with interest: "The man said just now, I will be your master from now on. Then is this the attitude you should have towards your master?"

Hearing this, Enel's face darkened, he clenched his fists, and tried his best to endure.

His eyes on Will were no longer friendly either.

"I am not a slave! I have no master!"

Seeing the stubbornness and unwillingness on Enel's face, Will didn't provoke him any more.

"I don't care if you are a slave or not, but I bought you from him, that is to say, you will be mine from now on!"

"Understood?"

"Why?" Enel stared into Will's eyes.

"Why me?"

Will pointed to the slaves on the other side of the construction site: "What did you see from them?"

Enel also looked at the slaves, muttered a few times, but didn't say anything.

He didn't know how to describe it.

Will said for him: "Although these people are still alive, they are no different from dead. But you!"

Will stretched out his index finger and touched Enel's heart.

"Your heart is alive!".
