Pirates: Vice Captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates!

Jellal followed Milai to the cabin.

He looked at the curvy lady in bikini in front of him, and thought to himself that the women in the world of One Piece are so ugly or so beautiful!

"hiss!!"

Just as Gerard was daydreaming, the snake wrapped around Milai suddenly stretched out its head and hissed!

"what…"

Gerard was startled by the snake head that suddenly appeared in front of him.

Mi Lai turned around and covered her mouth with her hands, laughing softly, and said, "Wuhehe~ Little Jellal, you are not honest~"

It was discovered!

This immediately made Gerald a little embarrassed. He said to Mi Lai, "Sister Mi Lai, I'm just curious why each of you has a snake wrapped around your body?"

The two came to a house. Mei Lai pushed open the door and said softly, "This, I can't tell you. Go in. You can rest here first. I will come down to call you when we arrive."

Jellal didn't ask any more questions, but thanked Mi Lai and walked into the room.

After watching Gerald go in, Milai looked at him deeply, then closed the door and returned to the deck.

After looking around the room, Jellal put down his backpack and Snow Drinking Sword and threw himself onto the bed.

"Finally I can have a good rest. This journey almost cost me my life..."

"No, let me see what kind of devil fruits these are!" Jellal looked at his big backpack, struggled a bit and got up.

He opened the package, and several pieces of gold jewelry emitted a dazzling light. The berries were all wet, so Gerard quickly spread them out to dry. After all, there were several million worth of jewelry!

Finally, there were four small boxes containing devil fruits. Although he had already eaten a devil fruit, he couldn't help but feel excited when he saw four devil fruits in front of him.

"What kind of devil fruit could it be?" Jellal murmured.

He opened the first box, and a banana-shaped devil fruit appeared in front of him, covered with scales.

"Animal type? It should be a snake, which is not very good..."

Jellal frowned slightly. This should be just an ordinary species, an ordinary species of snake at that. The upper limit is too low.

He then opened two small wooden boxes, one in the shape of a banana and the other in the shape of an apple!

When Jellal saw the two devil fruits, his brows finally relaxed.

That banana-shaped devil fruit has some claws and feather threads on it, so it should be a flying animal!

Flying animals are still relatively rare in the ocean!

The other apple-shaped one should be from the superhuman series. Many of the superhuman series have reached the level of rules, so it should not be bad.

Jellal looked at the last small box. The devil fruits in the first three did not surprise him. He wondered what kind of devil fruit was inside this one.

After opening the last box, Gerard saw that it was wrapped in a thick layer of cotton cloth, which made him feel a little strange.

Isn't this a devil fruit?

With this uneasy feeling, Jellal unwrapped the cotton cloth, and it turned out to be a devil fruit!

Jellal was delighted when he saw this devil fruit.

He rewrapped the cotton cloth and put all the devil fruits back.

Now Jellal was finally relieved. The last devil fruit gave him a good mood. Jellal put the snake devil fruit away and put the others back into the package. He could finally rest in peace.

The Perfumed Serpent was rapidly moving towards the Nine Snake Island, towed by two giant sea kings. Granny New stood on the bow with a cane, but she was thinking about Gerald.

Milai, who was standing next to him, also had a thoughtful look on his face. Jellal swore that he had a devil fruit, so it shouldn't be fake.

Everyone in the ocean wants the power of a devil fruit, but Mirei doesn't understand why Granny New didn't ask Jellal for it immediately.

Mei Lai couldn't help but ask, "Grandma New, why didn't you take away all the devil fruits from that little boy just now?"

Granny New glanced at Meilai, thought for a while and then said, "Meilai, since Xia Qi left the Nine Snakes Pirates, the Pirates have had almost no outstanding successors, and Amazon Lily has not produced a talent who can serve as the emperor of the kingdom. I am worried!"

Upon hearing this, Meilai lowered her head in shame. They, the main fighters, were indeed far inferior to Grandma Niu and Xia Qi.

"I'm not blaming you. This is determined by personal talent. Xia Qi and I also have a certain responsibility for not finding some good devil fruits for you."

"This little boy named Gerard, I can see that he has great talent and is smart, but unfortunately, he is a boy. If he was a girl, I would definitely keep him on Nine Snake Island and train him well!"

The lack of a successor to Nine Snake Island has made Granny New very worried. So today, after seeing Jellal, she felt a sense of appreciation for his talent, otherwise she would not have easily brought Jellal back to Nine Snake Island.

Listening to Grandma New talking about the successor, Meilai seemed to have thought of something.

Nowadays, everyone in the kingdom is proud to join the pirate group, even the younger generation of children are no exception.

Before this voyage, Mylai had noticed that there were several children in the kingdom who were very talented.

Mei Lai couldn't help but say, "Granny New, before we went out to sea, I noticed that there are several young people in the country with great potential, especially one named Boa Hancock. She is only 11 years old, but she has already learned the Armament Haki. I think she is qualified to be trained by the kingdom. Even if she can't become an empress in the future, she can still become a powerful fighting force for our Amazon Lily!"

"Have you learned to be domineering at the age of 11?" Granny New looked at Meilai with a little surprise.

Mei Lai nodded heavily and said, "Yes, I have confirmed it myself. Boa Hancock is indeed very talented, and her two sisters Sandasonia and Marigorud also have great potential."

Grandma New nodded slightly. Since Meilai had confirmed it, it should be correct.

She plans to go and see for herself after returning to Nine Snake Island. If she is worth training, then Granny New will personally train this girl named Boa Hancock!

Mei Lai felt a little ashamed when she looked at Grandma New's wrinkled face.

Amazon Lily has not had an empress for a long time. Grandma New was the ex-predecessor, and Xia Qi was the ex-predecessor. At the beginning, Grandma New and Xia Qi gave up the position of emperor for men and chose to go to sea.

Since the Rocks Pirates were defeated, Granny New has returned, but Shaqi has not.

Nowadays, almost everything in the country is supported by Granny Niu alone, and Xia Qi can't provide much support.

Ultimately it’s all because of lack of money and shortage of resources. This problem has always plagued the Amazon Lily Kingdom.

Although their kingdom gained safety in the doldrums, its development was also restricted.
