The sucked corpse and the strange, pitch-black fruit. William couldn't believe what he was seeing. He swallowed hard and stared at Arlen. "Is this the Fruit of Fluttering?" he stuttered. "Is this the Fruit of Fluttering?"
"For me?" William stared blankly, and then his gaze towards the fruit became incomparably scorching.
"To be more precise, it should be the Yin Floating Fruit!" Yarlin said with a grin. The fruits that were extracted by the mother nest and Yarlin would all be infused with a trace of the same attribute as the Yin Scar. Apart from the original attribute, the fruit would also be bestowed with a layer of Yin Frost characteristics.
Yarlin tossed the fruit into the air, drawing a black parabola in the air before being caught by William. He lowered his head to observe the complex and strange patterns on the fruit. The ravines of each pattern seemed to be tainted with an indescribable beauty and temptation.
"Power, the Golden Lion Shiki's power has fallen into my hands!" William held his impatient breath. He raised his head to meet those pitch-black eyes, and only felt a boundless depth penetrating his back. He let out a scorching breath. For a moment, he actually didn't dare immediately swallow this fruit that he had yearned for even in his dreams.
"Eat it, and the next chapter of the Flying Sky Commander will be written by you, Black Skeleton William!" Yarlin's voice was deep and full of magnetism, full of bewitching power. "William, you've been following me for a long time, and you've never disappointed me. That's why, this is the reward you deserve!"
William's face revealed an expression of gratitude. His knees heavily knelt on the sticky carpet, and his hands raised the Yin Frost Fruit high above his head. As if on a pilgrimage, he swore to Yarlin, "I, William, will never betray you in this life. I will do everything I can to carry out all of your orders. I won't dare disappoint you, Yarlin, in the slightest, or else …"
"There's no need for such a vicious oath. If I didn't believe you, why would I bestow this incomparable fruit to you?" Yarlin walked over and supported William with both hands. He sneered in his heart, "After eating this fruit, your life and death will naturally be in my hands!"
The fruits extracted by the broodmother were all infused with pheromones. The power of cold was a manifestation of the pheromone. Aside from being a special attribute, it was also a remote-controlled bomb that was buried in the body of the target.
William revealed a grateful expression. He slowly brought the fruit to his mouth, opened his mouth that was filled with saliva, and bit down on it with his saliva dripping from his teeth.
The jet-black flesh of the fruit entered his mouth and froze the roots of his teeth. The chewed flesh turned into a pool of liquid with a strange taste and flowed into William's esophagus. Then, it was quickly absorbed by his body. An indescribable power surged into his heart and limbs.
There seemed to be a floating, pitch-black demon residing within the powerful beating heart. A layer of strange Yin runes appeared on the surface of the heart, rising and falling with the beating of the heart.
"Power, the great power that the Golden Lion King relied on to dominate an era, is in my body!" William resisted the urge to look up to the sky and roar. He swallowed the whole fruit into his stomach. The excitement on his face was difficult to suppress. His mouth opened exaggeratedly, and there was still dark juice between his lips and teeth.
As the number of fruits extracted by the broodmother increased, the broodmother's understanding of the structure and principle of the Devil Fruit became more and more profound. Now, the fruits extracted by the broodmother and swallowed by people would quickly and perfectly fit with the current body, forming a relatively high initial value, and have a certain amount of immediate combat power.
"Go to Alabasta to see me, and bring Dr. Indian to me on the way!" Yarlin said faintly, "Now you also have the qualifications to gallop on the Grand Line, William, don't let me down!"
The voice gradually drifted away, and the darkness in the eyes in front of him faded away. The cold figure glanced at William indifferently and turned away. He stood in front of the coffin cemetery again like a sculpture, leaving William with a back view that could not be seen.
"Yarlin left!" William looked down at his hands that were clenched into fists. The power that surged through his body told him that this was not an illusory dream. He opened his mouth and wanted to laugh, but the strange and cold darkness in front of him made the smile on the corner of his mouth disappear. Only a pair of eyes shone in the darkness.
Crowe came out of the darkness. He looked at William, who was floating off the ground, and the corner of his mouth twitched fiercely. He cursed in his heart, "The flag of Fei Tian Admiral is as heavy as a thousand catties. William, I look forward to the day you are crushed to death!"
"I'll take you out of here!" Crowe pushed the frame of his glasses, and the expression on his face returned to a hypocritical smirk. He walked forward.
William followed behind, his eyes staring at Crowe's back. His eyes flashed with murderous intent. He walked out of the hive, left the underground, and walked out of the prison without a word.
"I'll send you here. I wish you a pleasant journey on the Grand Line!" Crowe pushed open the prison door, stepped aside, and said to William with a smile.
The murderous intent in William's eyes was not restrained. He glanced at Crowe, "Aren't you coming?"
"I'll be there!" Crowe waved his hand, and a warden in a navy uniform brought William away. They walked towards the navy port. Crowe silently added in his heart, "To collect your corpse!"
William retracted his gaze meaningfully and followed behind the prison guard.
He did not float off the ground. Instead, he stepped on the ground and followed the warden back to the port. At the port, Dr. Indian, who was frightened, and Bell, who was anxious, stood at the edge of the port. They only let out a sigh of relief when they saw William's figure return.
"Lieutenant Colonel Crowe has prepared a merchant ship for you. You can take this ship and leave!" The navy officer said to William.
Sure enough, there was an inconspicuous merchant ship docked at the harbor. The merchant ship was loaded with food and water. A navigator and two sailors in vests were on standby with their sails raised, ready to receive orders at any time.
"Let's leave this place first!"
William spoke to Dr. Indian and Bell before he boarded the merchant ship. Dr. Indian immediately followed him. He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles in the Navy's camp. He didn't want to stay any longer. He had many questions that he wanted to ask William.
Bell gritted his teeth and followed. He made up his mind to ask William for the antidote immediately. Once he got the antidote, he would leave immediately.
After a quarter of an hour.
Shields Island disappeared from the sight of the merchant ship. The merchant ship gradually stopped. William looked at the empty sea around him and did not see any other ships. He took out a bottle of reagent from his arms and squeezed out a kind smile on his face. "Thank you for your help during this time. I'll give you the antidote now as agreed!"
William spread his palm and gently threw it up. It spun in a parabola and fell towards Bell's head. William stared at Bell and smiled. "I don't know if you would like to join the Black Skull Pirates?"
