Chapter 173 Shadow Fruit

"baron."

"Oh? Balash, have you eaten yet? If not, let's come together."

Looking up at Barash who was bowing and saluting, Sean said calmly.

Sean knew everything about what happened between Balash and Little Ram in the Lord's Mansion just now, but he was too lazy to talk about it. With his current knowledge, as long as he wanted to know, there were very few things that could be hidden in Greenfield Town. beyond his perception.

"Thank you, Baron."

After thanking him, Balash also sat down.

Seeing his arrival, little Ram's expression did not change at all. He was still cutting the beef short ribs silently. Only from his re-frozen silver-gray eyes could it be seen that he was not happy. This was not because of Bala. Barash had attacked him before, but because Barash was interrupting his time with Sean.

Lunch was finished in a quiet atmosphere. Little Ram left quickly as usual. He was going to class, but Balash stayed.

"Tell me, what's going on this time?"

After taking the napkin handed by the maid and wiping his lips, Sean said casually.

Although Balash was allowed to live in the Lord's Mansion, he stayed outside most of the time, and the number of times he took the initiative to visit Sean was even less. Of course, one of the important reasons for this was that Sean was usually very busy.

"Baron, I want to exchange for a devil fruit."

Looking at Sean, Barash raised his head and spoke his request in a sincere tone.

"Devil Fruit? Yes, after all, you are also a member of the Yin Beast."

As one of the only two extraordinary departments in Greenfield Town, Yin Beast members will receive a Devil Fruit as a benefit as long as they pass the assessment. However, this Devil Fruit is only allowed for personal use and is not allowed to be traded. Moreover, the Devil Fruit given by this kind of Devil Fruit is usually They are all the most common extraordinary species of animals.

Of course, if you don't like this kind of Devil Fruit, Yin Beast members can also choose to refuse, convert this time's benefits into discounts, and then accumulate contribution points to exchange for better Devil Fruits.

"Tell me what kind of Devil Fruit you want. After all, you came to me personally, so you probably don't like ordinary Devil Fruits."

Leaning back in his chair, Sean looked directly at Barash.

Feeling Sean's gaze,

Balash's expression did not change at all.

"I want a fruit that will provide me with great concealment and increase my strength."

Barash already had an idea in his mind about the Devil Fruit he wanted, so there was nothing to hesitate about now.

"Is that so?"

After hearing Barash's words, Sean pondered for a moment.

"I have a devil fruit here that can satisfy your requirements. Take it."

As he spoke, an apple-shaped Devil Fruit with dark lines all over its body appeared in Sean's hand.

"This is a superhuman shadow fruit. Those who eat it will have the power to control shadows."

This Devil Fruit is the Shadow Fruit that Sean redeemed from the Gate of Infinity and completed the transformation. He originally wanted to give this fruit to Shadow, the person in charge of the ANBU, but now that Barash wants it, then It's not impossible to give it to him. After all, Shadow's soul has been affected by the strange object and has been distorted. Even if he eats the Shadow Fruit, there is no possibility of awakening, and his potential is limited.

"Thank you, Baron."

Reaching out to take the Shadow Fruit, Balash knew that he had come to the right place this time. Although Sean just said it briefly, Balash had already felt the extraordinary nature of this fruit, and its value was by no means those ordinary extraordinary animals. Something comparable.

"Okay, I gave you the things, I hope you can make good use of them. After all, you are also Montel."

After picking up the black tea and taking a sip, Sean's voice was calm.

Upon hearing this, Balash's eyes stagnated for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

"Yes, I understand, brother."

"Um."

Sean recognized Barash's call of "big brother".

"Then I won't disturb you, brother."

Seeing what Sean meant, Barash said goodbye.

"As Montel, I want you to think carefully before you do something."

Looking at Barash's back, Sean added, his voice calm and without any fluctuation.

Upon hearing this, Barash's steps stagnated slightly, and he detected a different meaning in Sean's plain words.

"Yes, I understand, brother."

Turning around and answering respectfully, Balash continued walking outside.

Looking at Barash's back, Sean's eyes were deep and he said nothing.

Underground laboratory, second floor.

A pale body of a faceless man lay on the experimental bed, and the body of a poisonous snake condensed by pale flames floated around like a ghost.

At this moment, there is a shriveled heart the size of a fist on his illusory left hand. It is the sixth-level lion heart that Sean brought back.

"Although this heart has lost a lot of power, it is enough for now."

The power gathered at the fingertips, and with a single stroke of the poisonous snake, a gash was opened in the chest of the faceless man's body.

Putting the shriveled heart into the chest, the blood vessels in the Faceless Man's body began to automatically connect to the heart like tentacles. But at this moment, a powerful force burst out from the heart and shattered these blood vessels.

"Is the repelling power so strong? Fortunately, I swallowed the blue nightmare before, otherwise it would be really difficult to solve."

The flames spread and formed into thin threads, twisting like living things on the snake's fingertips.

Talent·Suture, the incomplete talent obtained from the greedy stomach of the poisonous snake after swallowing the Blue Nightmare, can sew various biological organs together without rejection.

The threads were twisted, and under the control of the poisonous snake, they stitched together the slender blood vessels as accurately as a living creature.

The wound closed, the thread broke automatically, strange power surged, and the withered heart began to beat slowly.

"Well, it looks pretty good. This kind of natural power is still very useful."

Feeling the vitality gradually emerging from the cold body, a look of satisfaction flashed in the snake's narrow eyes.

"It looks like you're making good progress."

A low voice sounded, and Sean's figure appeared here at some point.

"Oh? Baron, you are here. The progress is indeed good. The heart you brought back before is very useful."

Turning around and facing Sean, Viper had a smile on his face, although it was a bit cold.

"Really? That's good."

Seeing Viper's smile, Sean also walked to the side of the experimental bed.

"It's really good."

Activating his senses, he carefully felt the condition of the faceless man's body, and Sean nodded.

With the addition of Lionheart, this faceless man's body is no longer a cold body.
