153: Chapter Illusionary Fruit, Crazy Fight

"devil fruit? What is that?"

"Is it some kind of fruit, or some kind of elixir?"

"Named after the devil, is it some kind of highly poisonous fruit?"

The term "devil fruit" was completely foreign to the vast majority of people in Sakura Country; they had no idea what it was.

But they also knew that if something was brought out now, it must be a good thing.

Just then, a voice suddenly came from the third floor, "What kind of fruit is this? What abilities does it have?"

The people below were startled. They didn't expect such a small fruit to make the Masters of the Eight Great Families speak up early.

This was not surprising. Although this auction was for the Eight Great Families, not all the items being auctioned belonged to them.

Normally, they would acquire some rare items to use as auction items, and this devil fruit appeared here for various reasons.

When Zhou Ruxue heard this, a brilliant smile immediately bloomed on her face. "Ruxue is not clear about this devil fruit either, but according to the consignor's description."

"This devil fruit should be a Paramecia type. The user can make people enter an illusion without anyone knowing."

As her voice fell, the entire auction hall instantly became quiet.

The originally noisy people all closed their mouths, their eyes fixed on the strange fruit, their eyes flashing with greed and longing.

Even the person who spoke earlier on the third floor stopped talking. Clearly, he was also attracted by this fruit.

However, Zhou Ruxue seemed to have anticipated this scene long ago, and then she showed a brilliant smile again.

"Lords, according to the consignor, the user of this fruit was only comparable to a Martial General at that time, but was able to affect a Wu Zong Realm Ninja."

"If not for the huge difference in strength, the consignor almost lost his life because of this!"

This sentence exploded like thunder among the crowd, and everyone was so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.

A mere Martial General could actually affect a strong person in the Wu Zong Realm?

This was simply a fantasy!

If it weren't for the huge difference in strength, would that Wu Zong Realm Ninja even have lost his life?

If they were outside, everyone would have sneered, but who would dare to lie here?

At this moment, everyone was restless, looking at the strange fruit with greed.

They seemed to see the scene after they possessed this power, their strength greatly increased, and their status rising steadily.

"I've long heard that a group of strange and unpredictable Devil Fruit Ability Users have appeared in Great Xia. If they don't fight, you can't find anything unusual about them, just like ordinary people."

"I thought I wouldn't have a chance to come into contact with them, but I didn't expect to see them in my Wang City today."

"This devil fruit, my Beiye family wants it for one billion!"

"Hmph, a mere one billion is not enough to speak, my Suzuki family is thirty billion!"

"Yamamoto family thirty-five billion!"

"Kobayashi family thirty-seven billion!"

...

Each family spoke up one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the price had already soared to over a hundred billion.

The people on the first floor were truly shocked, and some even couldn't believe their ears.

"What is this devil fruit? It can make the people of the Eight Great Families start fighting for it in advance."

"Yes, is this devil fruit so valuable?"

Li Wuji on the second floor was also a little surprised, but he quickly figured it out.

"No wonder this fruit appeared here, it's really a perfect match."

Li Wuji also knew something about the devil fruit, and he knew that this was the work of the 008 Bizarre Tree.

This devil fruit has many advantages, such as the side effect of this devil fruit, the host's vitality will be continuously absorbed by the Bizarre Tree.

Becoming the nourishment for its strengthening, the Master of the Bizarre Tree can also strengthen the fruit with this, which makes the fruit's ability more perfect and powerful, etc.

However, there are a few fatal flaws. The first is that once the host of this devil fruit dies, the other party's heart will re-transform into a fruit.

As for how Li Wuji knew, don't ask, just say it was learned through experiments.

It can be said that after killing the host, whoever gets it can use it, which makes the survival difficulty of the devil fruit host skyrocket.

After all, the stronger the strength, the stronger the vitality, and those hosts who don't live long and their strength is just like that, the less they can provide naturally.

As for why the first batch was only given to ordinary people, Li Wuji guessed that it was because the Bizarre Tree that had just been born was too weak or most of the devil fruit was not perfect enough.

The second is that this Bizarre Tree is not very intelligent, no matter what ability it is, it has to condense into a fruit, and now there are some devil fruits that even he can't understand.

But he also knew that an ordinary devil fruit would definitely not be worth so much money. As for what Zhou Ruxue said, who knows if it's true?

However, the ability of this devil fruit is indeed suitable for Sakura Country. After all, it can create illusions. At that time, wouldn't negative emotions such as pain and despair be readily available?

After all, torturing the body is ultimately limited, but the spiritual torture of illusions is varied. This devil fruit is crucial to the Eight Great Families of Sakura Country.

Even more precious than the three saint relics that are the finale, how can they not fight for it?

After a while, the bidding was like a game, and in the blink of an eye, it reached a hundred billion.

The numbers are now stuck, after all, none of the Eight Great Families can casually take out such a huge sum of money.

With this money, they can just find more people to work on it, and negative emotions will still come, and it won't cost much.

In the end, this fruit was bought by the Kobayashi family for one hundred and thirty billion, and the other party didn't say anything.

Soon, Zhou Ruxue looked at everyone present with a mysterious expression and said softly, "The next three auction items are the real finale items, please look forward to it!

Now, please welcome auction item number thirty-eight."

As her voice fell, a powerful Elder slowly walked onto the stage, holding a exquisite tray in his hand, on which was placed a dark gold ring.

This ring exuded an ancient and mysterious aura, as if it contained endless power and secrets.

"I'm sure you all know how precious saint relics are, they often possess incredible power and abilities."

"However, the only way to test the abilities of these saint relics is to drip blood and recognize a Master."

"Therefore, you can only rely on your own intuition and judgment to take a gamble."

As Zhou Ruxue spoke, she slowly extended a finger, pointed to the dark gold ring, and continued.

"This auction item has a starting price of one yuan, but there is no upper limit, everyone can bid as much as they want!"
