Chapter 1603 Devil Fruit Stripper (8)

Her eyes trembled slightly, as if she was trying to wake up from her coma.

When she finally opened her eyes fully, the first thing that came into view was the smiling face of Caesar Courant.

"Ms. Shikoti, how do you feel?"

Caesar Courant asked softly, a hint of concern in his tone.

Shikoti frowned slightly, she seemed not to have fully recovered from her previous state.

She subconsciously clenched her fists, feeling the changes in her body.

However, that once extremely familiar feeling dissipated quietly like smoke and disappeared without a trace.

Shikoti frowned slightly, and an indescribable feeling of loss surged in her heart.

She subconsciously wanted to use the power of the Illusion Fruit again, as if this would allow her to regain the lost feeling.

She took a deep breath, focused her mind, and tried to summon that strength.

However, when she opened her eyes, she found that there was nothing in front of her. The scene that should have appeared seemed to have been wiped out and disappeared completely.

This sudden change made Shikoti a little dazed. She stared blankly ahead, as if she had not yet recovered from this unexpected result.

"Ms. Shikoti, are you feeling unwell?"

Caesar Courant, who was standing by, noticed Shikoti's abnormality and asked with concern, a hint of worry in his tone.

After all, Shikoti was a very important person to him, and he absolutely didn't want anything to happen to her.

Shi Kodi slowly came back to her senses, shook her head, and said softly: "I'm fine, I just feel a little uncomfortable."

Her voice was a little low, as if she was still immersed in the loss just now.

Then, Shikoti sat up from the bed, her movements a little slowly.

Her body seemed to become a little light, as if it had lost some support, and a feeling of emptiness spread throughout her body.

"Here you go!"

Seeing this, Caesar Courant quickly took out a piece of seastone from his pocket and handed it to Shikoti.

This was a safety precaution he had prepared in advance, just in case the fruit's ability was not completely stripped away.

After all, if Scotch accidentally ate another devil fruit under such circumstances, the consequences would be disastrous and might even cause her body to explode.

In this world, the only methods that can most accurately detect whether a person is a Devil Fruit user are sea water and seastone.

Even the most advanced instruments cannot compare to it.

Shikoti hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out and grasped the seastone.

She originally thought that she would feel a strong impact of force, but to her surprise, the imagined weakness did not occur.

This was indeed a little difficult for her to adapt to.

After all, she had been trained with seastone since she was a child, and that deep feeling of powerlessness had long been engraved in her bones.

"How is it? Has the fruit ability been successfully eliminated?"

Caesar Courant asked impatiently, seeming to care very much about the result.

Shi Kodi nodded slowly and said softly, "I can clearly feel that the Illusion Fruit has left my body."

Hearing this, Caesar Courant breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

He quickly handed the sonic fruit to Shikoti as if it was a precious gift.

Shikoti hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out and took the sonic fruit.

However, she did not swallow it immediately as expected, but looked at the fruit in her hand silently, with a hint of loss in her eyes.

Perhaps it was because she was too nostalgic. After all, the Fantasy Fruit had been with her for twenty-five years. Even though its abilities were not that outstanding, she had developed a deep affection for it after so many years of living with it.

After all, Shikoti is an emotional person. How can she remain indifferent when facing such a separation?

With a heart full of melancholy, Shikoti slowly turned around and walked back to the observation room with heavy steps.

As soon as I entered the observation room, two young sisters immediately surrounded me.

One of the girls, named Luo Lin, asked with concern: "Sister, how do you feel now? Are you feeling unwell?"

As she spoke, she gently held Shikoti's arm.

Shi Kodi forced a smile and comforted her, "I'm fine, just a little disappointed."

Rowling nodded slightly, indicating that she understood the reason.

After all, anyone would feel reluctant and lost if the ability that has been with you for more than 20 years suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Women are often so sentimental that they always find it difficult to give up things they once had.

"Well, as the old doesn't go away, the new doesn't come."

Charlotte, who had been standing aside and observing for a long time, finally couldn't help but speak.

"Hurry up and eat the sound wave fruit!"

Shikoti took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner turmoil, then nodded slightly to show her agreement.

She slowly reached out her hand, picked up the sonic fruit, and just as she was about to put it into her mouth, she suddenly stopped.

"I thought I would never taste such a disgusting fruit again in my life, but I didn't expect to experience it again today!"

Shikoti said with a wry smile to herself.

Hearing her words, the others couldn't help but laugh.

Caesar, in particular, said with a sly look on his face: "I would like to eat it, but unfortunately I don't have the chance!"

As soon as Caesar finished speaking, several girls rolled their eyes at him at the same time, seeming to be quite dissatisfied with what he said.

However, at this moment, Charlotte's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something interesting.

"Maybe you'll actually have a chance to eat another one!"

Charlotte looked at Caesar with interest, a faint smile on her lips.

Upon hearing this, Caesar was stunned at first, then he looked at Charlotte as if he were a fool and couldn't help rolling his eyes even more.

"Dad, what on earth are you kidding? You can only eat one devil fruit. If you eat too many, your body will explode and die! Aren't you trying to kill your own son?"

Caesar's face was full of disbelief, and he spoke to Charlotte unhappily.

However, after hearing what Caesar said, Charlotte not only did not feel the slightest bit of guilt, but instead jumped up from her seat and slapped Caesar hard on the back of his head.

"How dare you talk to your father like that, you little brat? If I say you can do it, then you must be able to do it! Just wait and see!"

Charlotte glared at Caesar and said viciously.

Caesar felt so wronged after being slapped by his father for no reason. He didn't even want to look at Charlotte again.

Just then, Shikoti, who had been sitting next to them, saw this scene and couldn't help laughing.
