Chapter 432 Swallowing the Fruit

"Boy, what did you just say?!"

The Golden Lion shouted in an abnormal voice.

"This fruit can rejuvenate a person and return them to their prime. If used properly, it may even make them immortal."

Seeing how excited Golden Lion was, Kuro slowly repeated everything to him word for word, and even told him the hidden secret of the vampire fruit.

"real???"

"Captain, are you telling the truth?"

"Immortality, mythical beasts, this is indeed what the mythical beasts can do."

"you have heard?"

“First time hearing this.”

After hearing Kuro's introduction, the crew members suddenly felt that the huge golden statue was not so attractive. They all abandoned the golden statue and ran to Kuro, staring at the vampire fruit.

"If you guys keep squeezing me, I'm going to kill someone."

The Golden Lion was jostled by the crew, a black well-shaped pattern appeared on his forehead, and Ying Ju and Ku Mu floated beside him, the two divine weapons releasing bursts of murderous intent.

Seeing this, the crew members immediately retreated. They all knew that Golden Lion never joked and would really kill someone if he said he would.

"Humph."

Seeing that the crew members were so tactful, Golden Lion snorted coldly, put the two weapons into the scabbards, and looked at the vampire fruit with a serious face.

"How about it, do you want another devil fruit?"

"Do not want to."

Seeing the golden lion looking at the vampire fruit so eagerly, Kuro thought he would say he wanted to eat it, but the golden lion's unexpected answer made Kuro confused.

"Hehe, kid, I'm not stupid. Eating another devil fruit is tantamount to suicide. Only you can ask such an ignorant question."

The Golden Lion first sneered, then looked at Kuro with disdain, his eyes full of mockery, and got furious when he saw Kuro.

"You've learned your lesson, Golden Lion. It looks like your brain injury has recovered a lot. At least you can react when faced with urgent questions."

Hearing the sarcasm in Kuro's words, the Golden Lion drew his sword immediately. Sakura Ju and Kuki crossed, and the double-sword Golden Lion appeared!

"Calm down, this is on our ship, I would be sad if anything was damaged."

"This is my boat. If anything is damaged, I will fix it myself."

"No, no, no, you lost to me. This ship is mine."

"I don't remember anything like that!"

The two men became more and more excited as they talked, and at the end they suddenly started to compete with each other in fists and kicks. Seeing this, the crew members dispersed very skillfully.

Leave an area in the middle for them to use as a fighting stage.

The crew members were already accustomed to the fights between the two.

"You two guys should save your breath."

The Red Earl said in a low voice with a stern face.

After hearing this, the two men punched each other and separated by the force of the impact.

Kuro looked at the golden lion that he had punched in the face, and a victorious smile appeared on his lips.

"Eat it. This is the promise I made to you."

"Believe me, his ability will never disappoint you."

Kuro put away his smile, walked up to the Red Earl with a serious face, handed the vampire fruit to the Red Earl, and said in a serious tone.

The Red Count looked into Kuro's eyes, then looked at the devil fruit in his hand.

Without any hesitation, he picked it up and put it in his mouth.

"Uh~!"

As soon as he put the fruit in his mouth, the Red Earl let out a muffled groan. Just when everyone was waiting for him to vomit, they didn't expect that this guy actually swallowed the devil fruit.

"Master Hong is indeed a ruthless man who can hold off an entire regiment of Whitebeard by himself. He was even able to eat the Devil Fruit without batting an eyelid."

"Who said it wasn't? I still remember when I ate the devil fruit, I vomited as soon as I took a bite. The taste of that thing was so horrible."

The members of the War Beast Corps all looked at the Red Earl with admiration, little knowing that the Red Earl was already cursing in his heart.

"What the hell is this? It's bitter, astringent, smelly, spicy, and has all these weird flavors combined together. It's so terrible!"

A drop of cold sweat slid down the Red Earl's forehead. He suppressed the churning in his stomach and threw the remaining devil fruit in his hand into the trash can.

Everyone just looked at the Red Earl quietly, waiting for him to display the power of his fruit.

"Hey, kid, did you take out the right things?"

"Why does this old guy still look so old?"

The Golden Lion looked at the Red Earl who still looked old and couldn't help asking.

"You can't be wrong. I remember the appearance of this fruit very clearly. I have even been looking for it since I went out to sea. If I hadn't eaten something else, this fruit would have been my first choice."

"Then why doesn't he change?"

Just when everyone was confused, the Red Earl, who had his eyes closed, opened his blood-red eyes.

"Whoosh!"

The Red Earl turned into a red phantom and appeared beside the Golden Lion, his palms had turned into bat claws.

"boom!"

"Old man, your first reaction after gaining the ability is to fight me?"

The Golden Lion blocked the Red Earl's attack and looked at him with a smile.

The Red Earl also had a smile on his face. At this time, he had already entered the stage of partial bestiality.

"I just want to try out how much of an increase this fruit can bring me."

After saying this, the Red Earl turned around and launched another whip-kick. The Golden Lion flew into the air to avoid it. The Red Earl spread his bat wings, flew into the air and chased after him. The two men fought in the air.

"It seems that Master Hong likes this devil fruit very much."

Robin walked to Kuro's side and spoke out while looking at the Red Earl who was constantly attacking from the sky.

"To some extent, this fruit is the most suitable for Old Man Red. It's not just the ability to return to youth, but more importantly, the animal-type fruit can allow his physical fitness to break through a major stage again."

Kuro looked at the Red Earl flying in the air. This was the true resurrection of the Red Earl.

After fighting in the air, the two returned to the deck.

"Thank you, Kuro."

The Red Earl looked at Kuro and thanked him sincerely.

"This is what I promised you, no need to say thank you."

"Okay, the two of you stop thanking me. Red Earl, show me your ability to rejuvenate."

The Golden Lion couldn't wait to see if this fruit was really as miraculous as Kuro said.

"You really want to see it?"

"Of course."

"Then just stand still."

"What do you want to do?"

The next second, the Red Earl flashed to the side of the Golden Lion, pressed his right hand on the Golden Lion's neck, and red blood light began to appear.

The Golden Lion's already scarce golden hair began to turn platinum, and soon the Golden Lion's face rapidly aged by more than twenty years, while the Red Earl's body quickly grew stronger!

"What did you do to me, you bastard!~"

The Golden Lion trembled and pointed his finger at the Red Earl and said.
