But in the end—
What is left is more of an appeal than a need.
"I can provide you with some of Pluto's techniques. On the contrary, what I need is... to make all of us stronger in a 'short time', so strong that we won't be able to fight at that level without any resistance." force!!!"
Franky, who had always had a frivolous personality, now looked solemn as never before.
Taking advantage of this trading opportunity, he proposed to Moder what the current team needs most.
"All members..."
Maude raised her eyebrows and thought about it for a moment.
Making all members of the Straw Hat Pirates stronger in a short period of time would undoubtedly require a lot of energy.
But on second thought, it’s not impossible.
Because his original intention of seeking Pluto's technology was to use it to transform the terrifying three-masted ship, but he lacked powerful technicians on the ship.
Therefore, when the deal was reached, he not only asked Franky to provide technology, but also asked Franky to participate in the transformation of the terrifying three-masted ship.
That is to say—
While Franky is left to transform the terrifying three-masted ship, he can also gradually complete Franky's transaction requirement of "making all members of the Straw Hat Pirates stronger".
There is no conflict between these two things.
Moreover, there are many talented people in the team.
It is not impossible to leave the task of teaching the Straw Hat Pirates to Aokiji.
When she thought of that scene, Maude couldn't help but twitch her lips.
But the most important thing is the value of Pluto’s technology.
For this, he is willing to pay the corresponding price.
"Can."
After thinking for a moment, Maude agreed.
Seeing Maud agree, Franky nodded silently.
In his opinion, this is the best result.
After the deal was concluded, Maude thought about it and suddenly opened the shadow box.
The shadow wave surged, and devil fruits were revealed in it.
There are twelve in total, neatly arranged on the shadow wave.
"!!!"
Looking at the twelve Devil Fruits that Mod took out out of thin air, Franky, who saw such a scene for the first time, suddenly showed an expression as if he had seen a ghost.
Medical room.
When everyone who was paying attention saw the twelve Devil Fruits, almost all of them had reactions similar to Franky's.
"Hey, are you kidding me?"
"So, so many Devil Fruits..."
Everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates were either shocked or in disbelief.
Before Mod took out these twelve Devil Fruits, how could they dare to believe that there were people in the world who had so many Devil Fruits in their hands.
On the balcony.
Maud looked at Franky's horrified reaction and wrote lightly:
"In order to satisfy your request of 'in a short period of time', I will give you three Devil Fruits and... agree to Zoro's request just now. Is this what you want to see?"
“…”
Franky looked at Mod in disbelief as he took the initiative to give away three Devil Fruits.
Damn it, this man is so manly! ! !
In this case, it would be unreasonable if he, Franky, did not do his best to meet Mod's trading needs! ! !
Franky's psychological activities are exactly the results that Maud wants to see.
After all, he didn't want to see Franky being perfunctory about transforming the terrifying three-masted ship.
Chapter 251 Maud’s suggestion
The life card can only guide the direction, but cannot determine the distance.
After this trip, I don’t know how long it will take to find Rayleigh.
Before that, it does not affect the deal made by Mod and Franky.
"That `s a deal."
Maud looked at Franky calmly.
Franky nodded heavily.
Exchange part of Pluto's technology for an opportunity that will give the team the strength to ride in the new world in a short period of time...
It's hard to tell the pros and cons, but there is no doubt that they need this opportunity.
"It's up to you to tell them clearly about the special training. As for the devil fruits... I will make a list for you tomorrow, and then you can choose three of them."
Maud opened the Shadow Box and took the Devil Fruit back.
"no problem!"
Franky looked at the Devil Fruit slowly sinking into the shadow wave and nodded quickly.
Let’s not talk about special training. Devil Fruit itself can make people gain powerful power in a short period of time.
If Mod hadn't taken the initiative to take out the Devil Fruit, how could Franky have thought that he could get three Devil Fruits in this deal
Just thinking about it makes me feel like I've made a lot of money.
However, Franky also knew very well that the reason why Mod took the initiative to take out the three Devil Fruits was largely due to his friendship with Usopp and Sabo.
After the deal was negotiated, Maud left the medical room without staying any longer.
As soon as Mod left the medical room, Franky informed his companions about the special training.
"Eh!?"
Then, an incredible exclamation broke out in the medical room.
Maude, who was already in the corridor, heard the scream that seemed to tear down the ceiling. She didn't pay much attention to it, but looked at Sauron in front of her.
"When your injury is almost recovered, we will start special training immediately."
As they passed Sauron, Maud dropped a word.
Sauron raised his head suddenly and looked at Mod's retreating back, with a stern light in his eyes.
"good."
He responded solemnly.
Maude left without looking back.
After solving the modification problem of the terrifying three-masted ship, Maude had some breakfast and went to find Xia Qi and Qing Pheasant.
Naturally, he cannot take on all the special training tasks for the Straw Hat Pirates, and Xia Qi and Aokiji are suitable candidates to share the heavy responsibility for him.
If Lafayette and Jayade hadn't been in charge of the navigation, Maud would have left all the special training tasks to his companions.
"Are you helping the Straw Hats with their special training? I don't have any problem."
Faced with Mod's request, Xia Qi accepted the task without much thought.
Before she found Rayleigh, she was idle.
Besides, it is not difficult to provide special training for the younger generation.
Xia Qi deserves to be decisive, but Qingzhi just looks embarrassed.
He has some connection with the Straw Hat Pirates, but now he has to help the Straw Hat Pirates with special training...
Regardless of identity and position, just thinking about this kind of thing makes my balls hurt.
"There is no option to refuse, Kuzan."
Seeing the troubled look on Qingzhi's face, Maud opened her mouth and blocked Qingzhi's escape.
"Ah la la... ok."
Qing Pheasant sighed.
I had no choice but to accept the task with a grimace.
The next day.
Maude went to the infirmary again.
Luffy was still unconscious, but the others looked significantly better after using Philo's carefully prepared ointment.
Maud's arrival immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Franky should have told you about the special training, right?"
Facing everyone's gaze, Maud placed a handwritten list on the table.
"Um."
Everyone nodded in unison.
It took them a whole night to digest the news with difficulty.
"Then I don't need to waste any more words. This is the list of devil fruits. Take it and look at it and choose three."
Maude flicked her fingers, and the list placed on the table flew towards the Straw Hats.
Nami took the list without hesitation, glanced at the devil fruit names listed on the paper, and asked sincerely: "Can I sell them for money?"
"???"
"Hey, Nami..."
Usopp and others suddenly stared at Nami with their eyes widened in shock.
"Just a joke."
Nami stuck out her tongue at her companions, but her eyes had turned into dollar signs.
"No, you're definitely not kidding!!!"
The Straw Hats looked at the money signs in Nami's eyes and waved their hands neatly.
At this moment, Maude said nonchalantly: "Since it is something given to you, you are free to dispose of it. Even if you sell it directly, I will not interfere."
"Really!"
The golden light in Nami's eyes became more intense.
Everyone looked a little panicked at Nami's reaction.
"Nami, are you really going to sell your Devil Fruit?"
"This is a devil fruit. As long as you eat it, you can gain powerful abilities!"
In order to stop Nami from wanting to sell her devil fruit, everyone gave her advice again and again.
"I told you it was a joke."
Nami handed the list to Usopp who was nearest her.
Usopp doubtfully raised his hand and pinched the list, and when he wanted to pull it out, he found that Nami refused to let go.
“…”
Usopp looked at Nami speechlessly, then pried off Nami's fingers, and then pulled out the list.
Everyone gathered next to Usopp and looked at the devil fruits on the list.
"Exploding Fruit, Sound Fruit, Squeezed Fruit, Sticky Fruit, Target Fruit, Floating Fruit, Wandering Fruit, Art Fruit, Exploding Fruit, Ton-Pressed Fruit, Mammoth Fruit, Pachycephalosaurus Fruit..."
Usopp read them out one by one.
