NOVEL NEXT Chapter 56
Chapter 56 Salvage Ship
Humans cannot breathe in water, let alone the bottom of the sea.
If it is a shallow sea, it is better, if it is a deep sea, the danger will increase geometrically.
Breathing, water pressure, etc., are only one of the problems.
The sea is not a safe place. Carnivorous fish in the sea, such as sharks, and what’s more, if you encounter Sea Kings, it will be over!
Ryuzaki quietly eavesdropped on the conversation of the gang, and roughly confirmed the location of the salvage fleet.
Ryuzaki guessed that Barreros got the Op-Op Fruit from the salvage boat-team.
That being the case, Ryuzaki decided to go ahead.
Sure enough, in a nearby sea area, the salvage fleet mentioned by Barreros was found.
There are about 30 people in this fleet, all of which are small fishing boats.
Generally, they are salvaged near the island, and they don’t dare to go too far into the sea. First, they don’t dare to go to the deep sea. Second, their boat is too small and can’t bear the big wind and waves.
Of course, compared with the risk, if a Devil Fruit can be salvaged, the harvest will be plentiful.
The market price of Devil Fruit at the auction house is at least 100 million Baileys.
In the pirate world, honest poor people who don’t become pirates will basically do the hard work, such as going to the bottom of the sea to find Devil Fruit.
Ryuzaki quietly came to the middle of the salvage fleet.
The leader of this salvage fleet was a middle-aged man named Kathien. His face was covered with wind and frost, and he was born as a fisherman.
The group of people under him are basically poor fishermen.
The reason why he switched to salvage is indeed the idea of making a fortune.
In the captain’s room, Katien was holding a map. During the detailed study, he drew the map by himself. Although the scope was not large, it was limited to a very small sea area.
However, Katin has detailed records of information about the depth of the sea, when the waves are bigger, and so on.
It seems that Katin has at least decades of accumulation in this regard.
Ryuzaki quietly pushed out the door and stood behind Kathien.
“Yo–”
The ghostly sound made Kathien jump in fright.
“You, you… Who are you? How did you show up on the boat?”
Kathien looked at Ryuzaki like he was facing a big enemy.
At this time, Ryuzaki was wearing a skull mask and appeared quietly, the scene was indescribably weird.
“Hehe, don’t be nervous, I’m here to buy Devil Fruit from you!”
“Buy Devil Fruit? Uh…”
How to say it, Katin is of course very welcome to those who want to buy Devil Fruit.
But the problem is, the fleet has been salvaging for nearly four months, and they still haven’t salvaged a Devil Fruit!
The last time I salvaged Devil Fruit was half a year ago, when I successfully found a Zoan Devil Fruit on the bottom of the sea and sold it for 120 million Baileys.
The crew divided the money, rested for a while, and came to salvage again.
Of course, during the period, someone took the money and quit, so Katien had to recruit people again.
This job really depends on luck.
Sometimes, it is not uncommon to find a Devil Fruit for one or two years, or even two or three years.
“Your name is Katien, right?”
“Yes, yes, how did you know that?”
“You don’t need to know this. Let me ask you, have you been working in this sea area for a long time?”
“Yes, my fleet is basically fixed in this area of water, and it has not changed for decades!”
“very good!”
“very good!”
Ryuzaki was secretly delighted. He speculated that there was at least a half chance that the Op-Op Fruit that Barelz obtained was stolen from Kathien’s fleet.
“Katien, I need you to speed up the salvage efficiency. Whether it’s working overtime or recruiting more people, it’s up to you to think of the method.”
As Ryuzaki said, he took out a black leather case.
“There is 20 million Baileys in it, which is my deposit. If you can salvage Devil Fruit, I will buy it directly. The lowest price is 200 million Baileys.”
Katin was stunned, he took the suitcase from Ryuzaki’s hand tremblingly, opened it, F*ck, it’s really Bailey.
After a while, Katin was excited, and then fell into a state of ecstasy.
This is to meet the rich! Moreover, as long as Devil Fruit is salvaged, no matter what type it is, they will all be bought at the lowest price of 200 million Bailey.
Note that this is only the lowest price, that is to say, you can also increase the price according to the rarity of Devil Fruit.
Katien was excited, but he also knew the goods, and he knew that Ryuzaki was very skilled when Ryuzaki appeared strangely behind him.

For the rich and powerful uncle, Kathien naturally did not dare to offend.
Also, this is a great opportunity to make money.
Katien put Bailey away, and while ordering his subordinates to speed up the salvage, he also sent people to recruit more crew members.
Before long, the crew increased to three hundred.
This size is not small.
In this regard, Ryuzaki directly and generously sent Katyn another 100 million Bailey to let him buy more ships.
Anyway, the money in Ryuzaki’s hands was allocated by the World government.
10 billion baileys every year, just worry about how to spend it, just spend it on Devil Fruit first!
Op-Op Fruit is a good thing, and in Ryuzaki’s opinion, it’s worth the money.

Katien’s fleet increased in size and began to work overtime, three shifts in the waters he knew well, searching for Devil Fruit.
Ryuzaki stayed on Katin’s boat for nearly half a month.
Finally one day, a salvage crewman came to the surface and shouted excitedly: “Captain, captain, I found a Devil Fruit.”
“Hahahaha… That’s great, come on up!”
This shout naturally alarmed Ryuzaki, who was resting in the captain’s room, and Ryuzaki immediately ran out.
When Ryuzaki saw the Devil Fruit, his eyes lit up, F*ck, isn’t this an Op-Op Fruit?
Ryuzaki flipped through the Devil Fruit Pokédex.
The shape of the Op-Op Fruit was firmly in his heart.
Ryuzaki won’t go wrong, the Devil Fruit shaped like a heart is the Op-Op Fruit.
However, Ryuzaki held back his excitement and stepped forward with a calm face.
“Hey, sir, look, the price of this Devil Fruit?”
“Hmm—although I don’t know what this Devil Fruit is, but from the looks of it, it shouldn’t be Logia’s.”
“This……”
Katin touched his head. He was engaged in the salvage of Devil Fruit, and naturally he also knew some basic conditions of Devil Fruit.
For example, the classification of Devil Fruit is roughly: Zoan, Paramecia, Logia.
Among them, Logia is generally more valuable.
And Logia’s Devil Fruit shape is said to be in the shape of a pineapple. .
