Chapter 184 The trade fair begins, and the Flame-Flame Fruit ignites the entire venue?

The atmosphere in the central square of Beehive Island was like the sea being scorched by fire—restless yet extremely oppressive.

The Rocks Pirates' key officers gathered once again. A tense, oppressive atmosphere hung in the air, like the calm before a storm, the sea surging yet deathly silent.

The huge black wooden table was filled with the world's top predators.

Rocks D. Gibbek sat quietly in the main seat, yet the oppressive aura around him was very obvious. Overlooking the entire island, he exuded a kingly domineering presence.

Edward Newgate, the white-bearded man, was as steady as a mountain. He gripped the naginata tightly in his hand, his gaze reserved and profound. No one knew what he was thinking, but everyone present knew that this man's thirst for power had never ceased.

Charlotte Linlin's greed almost overflowed from her massive body. She licked her lips, her thirst for other Devil Fruits making her look like a ravenous beast ready to devour anyone at any moment.

Shiki the Golden Lion, on the other hand, appeared nonchalant and carefree. He crossed his legs, his gaze darting between the captain and the other three senior officers, a playful smile on his lips. He enjoyed chaos and conflict, for that was precisely where Shiki's opportunity to profit lay. He already sensed that this exchange would be anything but peaceful.

Finally, there was the last of the four high-ranking officers, Brian the Beasts, seated in a prestigious position second only to Rocks. He appeared calm and composed, exuding an air of arrogant disdain. Having returned severely injured, he displayed an even greater aura of power than before.

The hellhound girl, Boros, stood behind him like a shadow, her golden eyes coldly sweeping over every executive present. Her decisive and ruthless aura caused even those who had initially held her in contempt to lower their gazes.

Besides Captain Rocks and the four senior officers, the remaining officers, such as John and Wang Zhi, as well as the strong members of the pirate crew, such as trainees Kaido, Peony, Stussy, and Flame Flower, were all present.

It's worth noting that Kaido, the only intern at the moment, wasn't sitting below, but rather next to Linlin. His tall figure sat there like a wall, impossible to ignore, silently watching the entire scene.

These people, though not the main focus of today's trade fair, are still very much looking forward to it.

Everyone knows that at this trade fair, they will see all sorts of amazing Devil Fruits, things they would never normally have the opportunity to encounter.

If you save up enough money and go all out, it will be very beneficial for improving your own strength or the strength of your subordinate forces.

After a moment of silence, Captain Rocks, who was in the main seat, finally spoke. His voice was deep and hoarse, but full of undeniable domineering power, instantly suppressing the noise of the entire room.

"I believe everyone present understands the significance of this exchange. Our Rocks Pirates are about to wage a super war capable of shaking the world. This exchange of internal resources is to ensure that every officer can maximize their combat capabilities!"

"Everyone must use this exchange to gather the strongest forces in the shortest possible time and rush to the final destination! This operation will not accept any excuses or prevarications!"

Upon hearing this, all the cadres felt somewhat uneasy. Although they had already learned from Lockes that the operation was about to begin, most of them were still unclear about the specific scale and location.

Lox's sudden and direct conclusion caught everyone off guard.

But there was no point in discussing it anymore. After making his announcement, Locus turned his attention directly to Brian: "Brian, you go first. Show us the good stuff you mentioned bringing back from the Sky Island. Don't waste time."

Brian nodded slightly and snapped his fingers. He knew that now was the perfect opportunity for him to demonstrate his worth and re-establish his position.

Fire Rat Girl Agni, accompanied by her clone maids, carefully pushed a uniquely shaped transparent freezer into the arena. Inside the freezer was only one fruit, but its appearance froze the air in the entire central plaza.

The fruit was a deep crimson, like magma, with spiraling flame patterns covering its surface. It radiated intense heat and an indescribable sense of destructive power, as if the sun's flames had been condensed within it, exuding an irresistible allure.

"This is a rare Devil Fruit I discovered in the Sky Island ruins." Brian's voice was calm, but every word struck everyone's heart like a heavy hammer.

He announced loudly, "Logia-type Devil Fruit: Flame-Flame Fruit!"

Natural!

Flame-Flame Fruit!

These two words, carrying absolute power and allure, instantly ignited the greed and madness of all the pirates present. Logia-type, representing powerful elemental abilities, is one of the rarest and most powerful forms of power in the pirate world!

The entire square fell into a deathly silence for a moment, then erupted into an uncontrollable uproar and gasps.

Edward Newgate, the white-bearded man, tilted the jar in his hand slightly, spilling some wine, but he didn't seem to care.

His sharp eyes were fixed on the Flaming Fruit, his gaze filled with an irrepressible longing.

The flame of this fruit is so stable in its form that it is no ordinary fire. If it were given to Marco or Jozu, their potential would be elevated to a new level. This is a fruit that could determine the future landscape.

Charlotte Linlin's greed could no longer be concealed. Her massive body trembled with extreme excitement, and the surrounding Homies became agitated, emitting a piercing buzz. She didn't bid, but simply reached out her hand, exuding an air of domineering arrogance.

"Logia type—Brian! I want it! I want it! Give it to me!" The old woman's voice was shrill and piercing, filled with a desperate madness. She knew that if one of her children possessed Logia-type powers, it would be a tremendous help to the future rule of the world—a temptation more delicious than any dessert.

Shiki the Golden Lion sprang from his seat, his once dashing face now completely replaced by greed. His sharp eyes were fixed on the Flame-Flame Fruit.

Damn it! I have to get it! My Flying Pirates! If they also have the power of Logia-type fire, they'll be a true sky fortress, capable of burning through everything. Rocks? Newgate? Nobody can suppress me!

At this time, Shiki did not have many strong warriors under his command. Although he had won the previous battles, he had suffered considerable losses.

Of the several squad leaders under his command, only the first squad leader, who is a Mantis-Mantis Fruit user, is currently in good condition; the others are either dead or injured.

At this moment, he really needed a top-tier fruit to bolster the reputation of his subordinates.
