The World Government was willing to trade Logia Devil Fruit, which was a little unexpected for Ross. He thought they would choose two Paramecia or three Zoan.
But.
This Logia must not be a very strong Logia, this can be determined, otherwise the government would never take it out, it is mostly something like Mimo-Smoky Fruit.
However, Logia will always be Logia, and it doesn't need too much development to be able to exert great power. There are few Paramecia that can be compared to Logia, and many Paramecia have to be awakened before they can compete with Logia.
Finally.
The World Government reached a deal with Ross, and the location was determined to be New World, Flame Island.
This island is not the first line island close to the Red Line, but an island close to the Marine G2 Division base. There are three volcanoes on the island, which are under high temperature all year round and few people live there.
"Flame Island …"
Laffitte looked at the map and marked the location of Flame Island, revealing a thoughtful look.
The sea area given by Ross includes seven or eight islands, and this Flame Island is one of them. However, the government must have a purpose for choosing this island. The more obvious point is that this island is closer to the Marine branch base and the Red Line.
As for whether there are other ideas, there is no way to know, because they have very little information about Flame Island.
"Do you really want to make such a dangerous deal with the government?"
Ficheux Erman's eyes twinkled. "The government can't let us take Logia Devil Fruit easily."
"Go, of course."
Ross snorted and said, "Since the other party has taken out Logia Devil Fruit, why not go? But I don't need everyone to go, I can do it alone. "
For today's Ross, he has Distortion Space in his hand. Although he can't win against two Admiral, if he wants to leave, even if Aokiji, Kizaru, and Akainu gather together, he can still retreat.
It is extremely difficult to kill a top combatant.
No one has been able to kill Kaido so far, and Ross has entered the category of extremely difficult to defeat. It is easy to run away from him, but it is difficult to defeat him, let alone kill him.
"Alone? Are you sure? "
Shiliew of the Rain paused and looked at Ross seriously.
Robin refused, "No, the risk is too great."
Ross gently smiled and stretched out his finger across Robin's cheek, saying: "Trading with the government is bound to be risky, but in some ways, the risk is lower for me alone."
If the World Government intends to take this opportunity to encircle the Ghost Hand Pirates, it is bound to send more than three Admirals, probably two Admirals plus two Admiral candidates, or one Admiral, one internal government force, plus two candidates.
In such a situation, the odds of victory were extremely low. Once a fight broke out, even if they managed to retreat in the end, it was normal for casualties to occur.
On the other hand.
If Ross goes alone, although the danger will be concentrated on himself, with the ability of Space Distortion, encirclement and pursuit will not exist at all.
Kizaru may not be able to catch up with him, let alone others.
"…"
Seeing that Ross had made a decision, the people present looked at each other and did not speak again. As Captain, Ross made a decision, which was naturally irrefutable.
Even Robin did not refute it at this time, but after returning to the room, she tried to get Ross to dispel the idea of going alone.
"If Law was stronger, I might take him with me, but unfortunately, his current ability does not meet the standards I need."
"You … can't … um … be sure … the government doesn't … have the means to restrain your ability …"
"It's not that easy."
Ross doesn't intend to take anyone with him in the end.
If he wants to go alone, there is no need to say much about his flexibility, but if he takes someone with him, even Ficheux Erman may not be able to guarantee his safety.
"Okay, take it seriously."
Ross interrupted Robin, who wanted to talk, and continued to use Gravity Distortion to help Robin exercise her physical fitness and strength.
… …
Flame Island.
This is an island with three volcanoes, one of which is an extinct volcano and the other two are active volcanoes, but they have only erupted once in recent decades.
The atmosphere on the whole island is extremely hot, but there is still vegetation growing here, all of which look strange.
"This kind of place is really good at picking."
On the edge of the island, at the foot of one of the volcanoes, Admiral Tokikake stood there with a wooden box in his hand, with a trace of sweat on his forehead, as if he had been here for a while.
Looking at the sea and seeing no ship, Tokikake shook his head, picked up the wooden box and looked at it carefully and gently opened the wooden box.
Inside the box is a Devil Fruit with a strange shape.
Looking at the shape, there is no doubt that it is a Logia Devil Fruit. It is light blue and the pattern on it looks like a wriggling candle.
"That's it?"
At some point, Ross appeared behind Tokikake, looking calmly at the wooden box in Tokikake's hand, or the Devil Fruit in the wooden box.
Tokikake was not surprised by Ross's appearance. His extreme Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki of Future Prediction had already seen Ross's appearance in advance.
"Yes, that's it."
Tokikake turned his head with a cigarette in his mouth and looked at Ross with a complicated look in his eyes and sighed softly.
Even if he doesn't want to be a Marine, he still wants to be a Pirate Hunter and force the other party to come to this step. Why bother?
"Is that the heart of a tenryubito?"
Tokikake looked at the beating heart in Ross's hand and asked.
He had to confirm it.
Ross was expressionless and his fingers holding the heart were slightly exerted.
The corner of Tokikake's mouth twitched slightly. Before Den Den Mushi rang, he took Den Den Mushi out of his pocket in advance and connected it at the moment when Den Den Mushi rang.
"It seems that there is no problem."
After confirming the news from the other side of Den Den Mushi, Tokikake nodded and took back Den Den Mushi, took the Devil Fruit out of the wooden box and motioned to Ross:
"Count to three and throw it at the same time?"
"Come on."
Tokikake nodded and stared at the heart in Ross's hand calmly.
"One … Two … Three!"
At the moment of counting to three, he didn't hesitate and threw the Devil Fruit directly because he had already seen the picture of Ross throwing the heart in advance.
He knew Ross's ability very well. Without getting the heart, he had no confidence to snatch the heart in mid-air. Even if he predicted it in advance, he just wanted to make sure that Ross didn't bluff him.
The two of them steadily caught what the other party threw.
"Logia Devil Fruit …"
Ross looked at the Devil Fruit in his hand and his eyes flickered slightly.
At the moment he got it, Ross confirmed that the Devil Fruit was real, and the Logia Devil Fruit was very similar in shape and could be seen at a glance.
The only problem is that he can't recognize the specific ability of this Devil Fruit and he needs to take it back to Robin to identify it.
"Sorry."
After Tokikake took the heart, he did not observe it but put it directly in his pocket and looked at Ross who was still observing the Devil Fruit and spoke in a deep voice.
Whiz! Whiz!
Almost as soon as his voice fell, two figures rushed from the left and right, sandwiching Ross in the middle.
One of them turned into a golden light, it was Marine Admiral Kizaru, and the other was wearing a Marine justice cloak with pink cuffs, it was Momousagi!
