Chapter 420 The Trace of the Dark Fruit
Chapter 420 The Trace of the Dark Fruit
The Great Route, an island close to the windless belt, can reach the East China Sea by crossing the windless belt here.The island is rich in a kind of iron tree.
This iron tree is hard and light, and it is a very suitable material for shipbuilding. Therefore, there are a lot of people who come here to order materials on the whole great route, and the capital of seven waters is their biggest customer.
Brooke Stephen knew from the name that this was the spy of the Brooke family here.
The Red Romance Bar, Stephen came out of it, picking his teeth with a toothpick in his mouth, walking leisurely on the street, wandering around casually.
People in Dahai should know that the Red Romance Bar is the intelligence base of the Brugge family, and those who shouldn't know that it's just an ordinary bar.
Stephen has been on this island for half a year, but he just received news from the family not long ago, trying his best to find the news of the dark fruit.
After receiving the news, he sent out all the people on the island, including fruit shops, fruit trees, merchant ships that landed on the island, and even the only fruit forest on the back mountain, where he arranged people to guard it every day.
It's a pity that there is no news about the dark fruit.
It's just that he still hasn't given up. Before he gets the news that the dark fruit has been found, he will keep searching on the island to fulfill his duty.
Pedestrians can be seen everywhere on this street, some are bargaining, and some immediately left the island after buying. After all, there are no other specialties here except iron trees.
According to the usual custom, Stephen still wandered around various fruit shops, just to see if he could get an unexpected surprise one day.
It's a pity that apart from buying a few bags of fruit, there is nothing else to gain.
"Hey, do you know that Alan has a very strange black fruit with even stranger patterns on it?" A six or seven-year-old child was bragging to his little friend.
"That's so strange, I can dye the big watermelon black for black fruit, and then paint some beautiful patterns, it's still the same," another little boy retorted.
"Viria can do such a thing"
After the little boy finished speaking, the four or five little guys all looked at the little girl named Vilia. Seeing so many people looking at her, their faces turned red.
"Viria, you can draw it, right?" said the little boy.
Under the watchful eyes of her little friend, Wei Lia nodded hesitantly, which is considered to have admitted this statement.She has been learning to paint for a year, and she can still do it if she simply paints a strange fruit.
"Look, I'll just say it"
"No, I've seen that fruit. That fruit was picked from a tree, and Alan hid it in his treasure house. If you don't believe me, I'll take you to see it!"
After the little boy finished speaking, he ran towards the back mountain without waiting for his partner's reaction. Apparently, Alan's little treasure house was somewhere in the back mountain.
After hearing what these children said, Stephen immediately followed. If nothing else, the strange fruit is a devil fruit, but if it is not a dark fruit, then I don't know.
Five or six-year-old children are very energetic, and they will arrive at the back mountain in half an hour, which is also because the town is not far from the back mountain.
In a forest, the leading child shouted loudly: "Alan, Alan, are you there!"
The sound echoed in the woods, and Stephen saw a wooden house on a huge tree trunk. There was a rope ladder next to the wooden house, and a seven or eight-year-old boy was sleeping in it.
"Ellen! Ellen!"
The little boy named Allen woke up, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and looked into the distance. After seeing his little friend, he immediately echoed.
"Jerry, I'm here!"
As he said that, Allen climbed down the wooden house along the rope ladder, and Jerry just ran over at this moment: "Allen, what about the strange fruit you have here, these people don't believe it, they say it was painted with paint, show them quickly, and see if I'm lying."
That fruit is Alan's treasure, and now some friends don't believe that their treasure is real, and they feel a little angry.
"You wait!"
Speaking of which, Allen ran towards the bottom of the tree house, then took out a small shovel from behind the tree, and dug hard into the ground.
As the soil rolled, a small box came into view, and Allen fished it out three times and five times.The rest of the friends gathered around and looked at the box curiously.
Allen didn't hesitate, and directly opened the box with the key hanging around his neck, and a black fruit with patterns came into view.
"Wow! This is a real fruit, it's not painted with paint." Vilia reached out and touched it, and felt it all at once.
Vilia is the authority among this group of children. After she spoke, the rest of the people naturally knew that this was the real fruit.
"It's really strange that there is such a fruit."
"The sea is really wonderful, it can give birth to such a thing"
Seeing that the friends wanted to continue touching, Allen took their hands and covered the box again.
"Hmph, I see you still don't believe this is true"
Speaking of which, Allen told the process of obtaining this fruit. As for why not eat it, it seems that it is not edible and can only be used as a collectible.
And Stephen, who had been hiding in the tree, was already in turmoil. He was on the tree just now, and with his eyesight, he could clearly see what was inside the box.
This is the dark fruit!
Those little guys were driven away by Allen, and he wanted to hide his treasure in another place, so that no one else would know.
Allen carefully buried the box in the soil, and then he was still worried, so he dug a few more grasses and buried them, and then left contentedly.
After confirming that Allen had left, Stephen jumped directly from the tree, took out the box as quickly as possible, destroyed the box violently, and looked at the black fruit.
Resisting the urge to eat, Stephen left here as quickly as possible, secretly thinking in his heart that after the matter was over, he would find Alan's parents and pay enough remuneration to buy this fruit.
He returned to the secret base of the Brugge family on this island as quickly as possible. Of course, it was not the Red Romance Bar. So many people in the sea knew who would put the real base there, where it was just selling news.
In a magnificent villa, Stephen bypassed the people in the villa, walked to a room, knocked on a secret door, appeared, and then walked over.
This is their secret base, and even the owner of this villa doesn't know that there is a secret passage here.Because this house was built by Brugge's people.
Walking through the winding passage, Stephen turned on the lights, and quickly called Brooke to report the situation. After passing on the information, in this quiet underground dark room, Stephen's heart was still beating wildly, and his eyes were shining with hot light.
And the news that Allen had a strange fruit was also spread by several children, which immediately attracted the attention of those who cared.
