Chapter 2: Market and Devil Fruit

Jovan walked to the market but on the way, he unexpectedly found someone that he is doesn't want to see right now. But if he is here most likely there is a great chance in this market.

Yeah, you don't have to guess who he is because it is Clint the protagonist.

"Honestly, I don't know if it is luck or bad luck for him to appear in this market palace.", he said then continue to buy all items that were necessary for survival.

Of course, the most important is a weapon and food. Some Ninjutsu and Haki skills, he already have and trained in these few years so he didn't necessarily search for them anymore.

Talking about skills, In this world, there is a unique rule on it. That's your practice can't get your skills level up. Your practice just increased the proficiency you use that skills but it doesn't mean it's useless to practice.

Because you still need high proficiency in your current level skills to level up to the next level. As for how to level up and get skills is through items called skill books or scrolls.

There is an exception like devil fruit, and Zanpakuto that needs to be upgraded by oneself ability, not by the item.

It is not easy to get a skill book or scroll because you need to hunt or kill a monster on the island world to get it that has a low drop rate for such an item to appear.

Especially Qi-related skills which are more expensive than any power system skills. And the cheapest one is a Magic skill because Magic only has one skill which is Summon Magic.

Summon magic what you depend on is not a level of skills but luck and medium that you use to summon a servant. Not only that, if you can't afford magic to your summoning creature you will die because of exhaustion.

And summon magic also have a very low success rate and once you fail to summon it will decrease permanently 10% of your energy point that presents the value and quantity of Magic, Qi, etc someone has.

But it doesn't mean, it is not a good power system. Because in the record there are only 283 people who succeeded to call a servant in this world. And all of them at least have B quality and Level 40 which is a very good troop, especially for newcomers.

Also, every servant is unique have their own special skills. Moreover, every servant of them starts with 50 intimacy points which is a standard goodwill status to its summoner. As you can see to get troops to join your camp it must be reached 50 intimacy points and it is not an easy thing to do.

Of course, 50 intimacy points are not without a reason. When you summon servants your consciousness will be teleported to a special space and there you will be tested by a servant. Qualified or not you are to be their master.

Jovan at this time already buy all of the necessities for his journey and plans to see a leak on the market, especially at the auction. But before going to the auction, Jovan wants to see the devil fruit market first.

The devil market is quite a rare place in a country but luckily the city I live in has a popular Haki powerhouse so the Haki power system and Devil fruit can be said famous on here.

In this world because Haki overshadow by Qi. The devil fruit price is not very expensive at least cheaper than normal treasure. Even though devil fruit is still regarded as a treasure for Haki users but it is a weakness too obvious and easy to be targeted.

Of course, it doesn't mean Haki users are weak because one of the powerhouses today besides Qi users is Haki users who eat Fish-Fish Fruit: Model Azure Dragon belongs to Kaido in my previous life movie.

Unknown power you got from eating devil fruit also decreases it is price. Of course, some of them have already been identified by the devil fruit encyclopedia that can be found in the island world.

Especially if that devil fruit is identified as Logia even Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit. It is price will be flying high even more expensive than a treasure that can upgrade qualifications.

"Talking about devil fruit market. Last time, a few years ago I also got my devil fruit from this market.", he said remembering the past.

At that time when Jovan discovered that devil fruit, he immediately buys it and practice Haki afterwards to have a qualification to eat that devil fruit.

As for how he got the money, it is easy, he is sell all of his property except a house to buy the devil fruit because he is an orphan.

After that, he is start to use devil fruit power, Haki, and Chakra to hunt mutant animals. Then sell their bone only with a reason that is the legacy of my parents to avoid being targeted because of my talent and to get more money for today's preparation.

"This is devil fruit market doesn't change at all. Except for the devil fruit on the stall that is less than the last time I see it.", Jovan said while looking at the devil fruits on the case.

From 100 or more at that time. Now, there are only about 50 of them. And looks like some of them are still new. All of these unidentified devil fruits. Even though I said it is not very expensive but each of them price is about 2 million island world coins or Isla coins.

As for how he can keep such a big amount of Isla coins. Because Island world provides panels even before you go to the island world but it is only limited to keeping money.

When Jovan looks at the devil fruits suddenly he sees someone that he doesn't want to see.

"I don't know if he is here will bring me luck or misfortune. I hope he is not in my way." Jovan said but suddenly his step stopped as thinking about something.

"Well, why don't I try to follow him maybe I will get good devil fruit on here. As far as I remember he is a poor person but it is also not possible if he recently made a fortune or something like that.", Jovan said and follow Clint while looking at the devil fruit.

Then he keeps walking until the last row of devil fruit cases and stopped. Well, it is quite fast, looks like he already has a target for the devil fruit.

Then Clint's eyes looked at the blue round fruit with a scale spiral pattern on it and its leaves have a shape of a zig-zag.

'That fruit I don't know what kind of devil fruit is but if it can attract Protagonist it must be good fruit, at least Logia type.', I thought then lose interest in it because the protagonist start to quarrel with a person. It looks like the original this fruit user that protagonist wanna take.

Seeing them like this, I don't care anymore and prepare to turn back but suddenly I am seeing a familiar fruit below the blue fruit that the protagonist aims to.

The fruit is violet and seems to have the scaled features and shape of a pineapple, with the typical swirls on the scales. There are seven green stem leaves on top of the fruit with a round triangular shape on each end.

'That's fruit. What a surprise I thought I will not get any harvest on here. But looks like my luck is still good.', Jovan said in his heart while looking at the violet fruit.
