Chapter 11 Devil Merchant
Frank has been protecting Tony's safety all this time, so he lives in Stark Tower.
When Tony found him, he was sorting his weapons.
After seeing Tony coming, he also stopped what he was doing.
Frank joked:
"Hello, boss."
"Why? You suddenly came to me. Are you concerned about the private lives of your employees?"
After experiencing life and death with Tony, their relationship became much closer.
Especially since they are all now Devil Fruit adaptors.
Frank has vaguely regarded Tony as a good friend.
Of course, this is also due to the high salary Tony offered him.
Tony did not retort as usual, but said to Frank with a heavy face:
"I have a very important question that I have been unable to figure out, so I would like to ask you for advice."
Frank nodded. He could probably guess what Tony wanted to say.
"If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I can help you with some reference from my perspective."
"But, in the end, it's up to you to make the decision. No one else can make the decision for you."
Tony said with a sad face:
"It seems you already know what I'm talking about."
"When you ate the devil fruit, didn't you think about the devil hell?"
Frank shook his head.
"Tony, you were there when I ate the fruit."
"What else do I have to consider in that environment?"
"If I don't eat the fruit I will die, so do I have a choice?"
Tony was completely silent.
Frank would die if he didn't eat the fruit, and now, if he didn't eat the fruit, he would most likely die as well.
He now faced the same dilemma as Frank.
After struggling for a long time, he finally asked Frank:
"Then you have never thought about hell and the devil at all?"
“What if my soul goes to hell after I die?”
"According to the information I have obtained, hell is probably not a good place."
Hearing Tony's words, Frank sneered.
Considering that they might become colleagues in the future, Frank didn't mind giving some advice.
He sat opposite Tony and asked him seriously:
"I actually have a question I've always wanted to ask you. Do you know what Stark Industries does?"
Tony was stunned for a moment, and answered subconsciously:
"The main profit component of Stark Industries is the arms industry."
"Next up are energy and aerospace, as well as artificial intelligence."
"What? What's the problem?"
Frank nodded:
"That's the problem."
"Stark Industries' biggest profits come from the arms industry."
"Do you know that you sell weapons to various countries?"
"Do you know how much carnage these weapons have caused?"
"Didn't you notice that the people who kidnapped you also used weapons from Stark Industries?"
"All these bad consequences have come back upon you."
"Don't you realize what's going on?"
"Do you think you are qualified to go to heaven?"
"Wake up! Hell is your final destination!"
Frank's words gave Tony a huge shock.
After being kidnapped this time, Tony also realized this problem.
Because the weapons used by the criminals who kidnapped him were produced by Stark Industries.
After Lin Feng pointed out that it was Obadiah who was manipulating behind the scenes.
Tony could also deceive himself that those weapons were provided by Obadiah and had nothing to do with him.
But Frank's words tore off the fig leaf he used to hide.
Wake up, you are an executioner!
Your hands are covered in blood.
You are destined to go to hell!
Tony finally woke up from his dream and said with regret:
"So that's how it is. Now I understand why I can become the adaptor of the devil fruit."
"I was born destined to go to hell and become a demon."
"That's why I adapt to the devil fruit!"
Frank was just about to teach Tony a lesson, but Tony's words made him react instantly.
Only sinful souls can eat devil fruits?
If you think about it carefully, it seems to be the case.
Although Frank calls himself a messenger of justice.
But he knew in his heart that what he had done was 100% enough to send him to hell.
Is it because of this reason that he can adapt to the devil fruit?
Perhaps it was for this reason that Lin Feng appeared in Hell's Kitchen, the place where evil gathered.
Frank even had a serious doubt.
That is the uncrowned king of Hell's Kitchen, Kingpin, who also obtained the power of the devil fruit.
Now it was Frank's turn to be depressed.
I didn’t expect that in the end, I wasn’t a good person either!
But he quickly adjusted.
Good or bad people don’t mean much to him.
He just knew that it was enough to live a good life.
He patted Tony on the shoulder:
"Although my experience can't provide you with much help."
"But at this time, I think you should find someone you trust the most and who you can rely on the most."
"Go to him and tell him what's on your mind."
"You're not like me. I don't have anyone to talk to anymore."
There was infinite sorrow in Frank's eyes.
He knew that such an important decision would be borne by Tony alone.
He probably couldn't bear it.
So he advised Tony to find another person he could rely on to talk to.
Tony realized his sin and for a moment he was unable to extricate himself.
However, when he heard Frank's proposal, the image of a woman flashed through his mind.
She was probably the only person he could trust and rely on.
Tony immediately said goodbye to Frank and hurried to the office on the top of Stark Tower.
Tony came to the door of the office and pushed it open.
Pepper, who was working in the office, looked at the breathless Tony with surprise.
She said with a hint of blame:
"You've just recovered, why are you in such a hurry?"
"If you have any questions, can you just call me?"
Her concerned tone warmed Tony's heart.
He sat aside with the help of Little Pepper.
But at this time, Tony began to hesitate whether to tell her the truth.
After much mental struggle, Tony finally decided to seek help.
"Do you remember the Lin Feng we met before?"
Little Chili nodded:
"Of course I remember that weird-looking guy who claimed to be a demon merchant."
"Didn't he also give you a strange devil fruit?"
"Is there something wrong with that fruit?"
