Chapter 187 Smoke-Smoke Fruit VS Giant Short-Faced Kangaroo Fruit, Logia-type fruits are clearly rarer.
With the successive success of two transactions, the atmosphere within the Rocks Pirates became even more tense. Bryan's Devil Fruit reserves seemed inexhaustible, and every time he brought out something valuable, it was something truly exceptional.
It wasn't just him; actually, the other members of the Yu clan had quite a few good things in their hands, but they had been keeping them hidden. For example, Golden Lion casually tossed out a Mythical Beast, while Whitebeard had an Ancient Beast. In any case, they were all "big shots" in the New World!
Whitebeard's success gave Charlotte Linlin an opportunity. She had to take something from Brian to accumulate more leverage for her future dominance.
Brian's maid pushed another new freezer in. This time, inside was a fruit made entirely of translucent geometric shapes, with clear barrier patterns on its surface. It emanated an invisible power fluctuation, as if it could create the most solid barrier out of thin air.
"I call this fruit the Barrier-Barrier Fruit," Brian announced loudly. "It's a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit. The user can create an absolute barrier out of thin air, capable of withstanding any attack in the world. Its strategic significance and defensive rarity are comparable to any Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit."
"Barrier! I want it!" Charlotte Linlin's gaze instantly burned with fervor. Although she possessed a defense as strong as an iron balloon, this absolute defensive ability was priceless for protecting her desserts and her family.
"Brian! I'll give you the Zoan-type Ancient Zoan Pachycephalosaurus Fruit!" Big Mom made her offer directly. This was an Ancient Zoan-type fruit known for its extreme defense and explosive impact. The fruit was currently held by one of her junior officers, and in her opinion, exchanging it for the Barrier-Barrier Fruit was worthwhile.
"The Swollen-Head Cage Fruit's defensive and life-sustaining power is indeed remarkable," Hilaine nodded, then changed her tone, "but the Barrier-Barrier Fruit's defense is absolute. Charlotte Linlin, you need to add some more leverage."
Charlotte Linlin narrowed her eyes slightly, forcibly suppressing the anger in her heart. This insatiable fellow.
Barrier-Barrier Fruit (Advanced Paramecia Type) vs. Pachycephalosaurus Fruit (Ancient Zoan): The Barrier-Barrier Fruit has extremely high strategic value and is slightly superior.
However, whether or not a fruit is valued ultimately depends on the individual. At least Lingling really liked the Barrier-Barrier Fruit, and after much deliberation, she compromised. "Fine, then I'll give you another 500 million Berries, based on the black market price, how about that?"
"Don't forget, I gave birth to an ancient species. Don't be greedy, you little bastard."
500 million peles: Balancing the price difference and demonstrating sincerity.
Brian wore a satisfied smile, as if everything was going according to his plan.
"Deal! The Pachycephalosaurus Fruit is mine." Brian accepted another precious Zoan-type Ancient Zoan fruit.
It was another deal between two high-ranking officials, and the results were quite astonishing, leaving other officials dazzled and even envious.
Damn it, these high-grade fruits are making our mouths water, but none of them are relevant to them. Isn't this like sitting in front of a mountain of treasure, tempted but unable to touch them at all?
What's the difference between this and arranging for ten stunningly beautiful women to stand in front of a eunuch and seduce him?
There's nothing we can do!
However, the senior officials paid no attention to this idea; their deal had only just begun, and there were still many good things to come.
Brian continued at his pace, intending to clear out most of his inventory in one go. The maid behind him pushed out another freezer. This time, inside was a fruit that was pure white, its shape ethereal, as if it were made of air and moisture.
"A Logia-type Devil Fruit, the Smoke-Smoke Fruit," Brian explained. "The user can completely transform their body into smoke, becoming immune to all physical attacks. Although its offensive capabilities are relatively weak, its absolute physical defense, unique to Logia-type fruits, makes its strategic survival value far exceed that of ordinary Ancient Zoan fruits."
Logia-type Devil Fruits are generally rarer than Ancient-type Devil Fruits, a fact widely acknowledged worldwide. For executives lacking top-tier defensive measures, this low-level Logia-type Smoke-Smoke Fruit holds a deadly allure.
"Iron Wall" Dolk, a member of the Rocks Pirates known for his strength but lacking in defensive capabilities, immediately caught his eye. Dolk was a second-ranking captain under Rocks, and his fleet was famous for ramming and close combat, but he lacked the means to survive against truly top-tier fighters.
"I'll trade my Zoan-type Ancient Zoan-type Giant Short-faced Kangaroo Fruit for this Smoke-Smoke Fruit!" Dolk offered a very tempting bargaining chip.
Although the ancient form of the Kangaroo Fruit is not as good as that of the Mammoth or Pachycephalosaurus, its powerful jumping ability and kicking destructive power still make it a very good ancient form.
Dolk glanced at the box of Berries beside him, hesitated slightly, and then said, "At the same time, I'm also adding one billion Berries, Lord Brian. This is all my savings!"
Brian still wore that calm smile on his face; he knew how much Dorke longed for this fruit.
"Captain Dolk, your offer is quite generous. However, the rarity of Logia-type Devil Fruits is undeniable, and I don't need your Berries." Brian waved his hand, his tone hardening. "I'll give you one billion Berries in exchange for your Devil Fruit and ten kilograms of high-purity Seastone powder. This is the price for an Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit in exchange for a Logia-type one."
Smoke-Smoke Fruit (Logia type) vs. Giant Short-faced Kangaroo Fruit (Ancient Zoan): Logia type is rarer.
Brian paid out of 1 billion Berries: to balance the rarity with Berries and Seastone powder (a rare material), but Brian got the more important Ancient Beast fruit and the much-needed Seastone.
Sea stone is already very expensive on the market, with prices calculated precisely by the kilogram, and it is often so expensive that there is no market for it.
Unfortunately, there are very few places in the world that can produce seastone, and most of them are controlled by the World Government and the Navy. They don't even have enough for themselves, so why would they circulate it on the market?
Other places that can produce sea stone are mostly places where powerful people gather, large countries, or remote and sparsely populated areas.
The place in the world that produces the most seastone is Wano Country in the original work, but at that time Wano Country was still under lockdown, so even less seastone could be circulated.
Seastone is already ridiculously expensive, let alone purified seastone powder. The price of this stuff is even more outrageous, and most pirates probably won't even see it once in their entire lives.
Dolk was also a good one; he had been accumulating wealth over time, even going so far as to plunder a wave of Celestial Dragons' Celestial Treasures to amass such a fortune. It just so happened that Brian had his eye on him. What a coincidence, what a coincidence!
