Moreover..... he would also obtain three billion Berries, eight Devil Fruits, and a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit!!!
The current John, was unusually unwilling!
"Oh?" Hearing Rocks' response, El glanced at him with some surprise.
Actually, El would already be satisfied if he could choose two out of three.
However, in order to try, he had said a choice of three.
But he never thought, that Rocks would actually agree so easily!
El suddenly realized something, shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Captain Rocks has agreed so readily, there must be some conditions, right."
"Of course." Rocks didn't beat around the bush and said directly.
"Then what are the conditions?"
"If your strength, can obtain my approval, I will let you choose three out of three, but if your strength doesn't obtain my approval, then..... you won't get anything."
Now, all of the pirates of the entire Rocks Pirates, had already grown up.
But..... Rocks still believed that he had absolute strength, and was above all of the pirates!
But on this entire ship, the only one he couldn't see through was El.
Or rather, he recalled, what Whitebeard had said back then.
That El, in the battle on Hachinosu, had faced two Navy main forces alone, and had even killed an Admiral!!!
He wasn't certain yet, if El could use the power from the time on Hachinosu now.
If he could.
Then he must now use the reward as a reason.
To force out El's ability!
After all, it wouldn't be long before Rocks would launch his plan to rule the world.
And in this process, if El had the intention of betraying him.
And could already release the ability used in the battle on Hachinosu, and backstab him, then it would be troublesome!
"Captain Rocks, isn't this too difficult for me?"
"How could it be? You're the person on our ship whose strength has improved the fastest, I believe that your strength..... will obtain my approval." A gleam of light flashed in Rocks' eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"Since Captain Rocks, believes that I can obtain your approval so much, then I have no reason to refuse, but.... not today, I need to rest, let's fight tomorrow." El responded after a moment of silence.
"Of course there's no problem." Rocks nodded.
Rocks wasn't in a hurry for this moment.
Because in his opinion, no matter when he fought with El, it would be the same to test his trump cards.
As the words fell, Rocks instructed someone, to take the Poneglyph on El's ship up.
And then handed it over to the scholar from Ohara, and let him begin to study the words on it.
To find the final indicators of Uranus!!!.
El and Rocks' battle, was set on the next day.
After Rocks instructed the Ohara scholar to study the Poneglyph, he directly turned around and left.
And El and John, also came to Rocks' ship.
The moment El got on the ship, Shiki next to him gloated and said: "Jie hahaha.... El, it seems that you won't be able to get these three things so easily."
Originally after hearing Rocks' response, that El could directly obtain these three things.
Shiki had been unusually jealous.
But as Rocks proposed the exchange of blows, and obtaining approval, these words.
Shiki revealed a smile.
He guessed that, Rocks definitely wouldn't approve of El's strength so easily!
That is to say, although El had brought back the Poneglyph, it was very likely that he wouldn't be able to get anything.
"El, maybe if you go to Captain Rocks now, and propose a choice of one out of three there might still be a chance, if you fight tomorrow..... you're afraid that you won't get anything."
John also revealed a gloating smile next to him.
El faintly glanced at John, and said coldly: "Don't forget, the boarding fee of one billion Berries, John."
Because all of the things on John's ship at that time, had been taken into El's bag.
Afterwards, El had proposed a boarding fee of one billion Berries.
John at that time, didn't have a single cent on him.
So he had promised El that after returning to the Rocks Pirates, he would offer up one billion Berries.
"You guy!" Hearing El mention one billion Berries, John's expression became extremely gloomy.
Charlotte Linlin, hearing this, looked at the two people with some doubt and asked: "One billion Berries? What did you two do?"
"It's nothing, I just encountered John in the area of the Sea Kings' nest, and his ship was destroyed, so I proposed to let him get on the ship, and only charged him a ticket of one billion Berries." El said unhurriedly.
"Ge... Getting on a ship, John needs to pay one billion Berries?" Kaido looked at the two people with a face full of disbelief.
Even for them, this group of pirates, one billion Berries, wasn't a small amount!
After all, the time period they were currently in, was in the old era.
The purchasing power of one billion Berries was very strong!!!
No one could have imagined, that just for getting on El's ship, John would need to pay a full one billion Berries!
He had to say, El was greedy enough.
"John, you guy remember to find me next time your ship is destroyed, I'll only charge you one hundred million Berries!" Shiki stood in front of John, and said solemnly.
Shiki needed a lot of funds in order to secretly recruit troops.
But..... he had worked so hard in the Rocks Pirates for such a long time, and was still very short on money.
But El had only let John get on the ship once, and had directly charged one billion Berries!
This made Shiki, develop jealousy again!
"One hundred million Berries? You guy are too greedy, I'll only charge you fifty million Berries, John!" Charlotte Linlin also echoed.
"Get lost, Shiki, Linlin!" John said coldly.
If he could leave that Sea Kings' nest, he definitely wouldn't be willing to pay El one billion Berries.
But.... he had no choice!!!
Damn it, in order to live, he could only obediently agree to El's request.
"You bastard, you'd rather make El one billion Berries cheaper, than make me one hundred million Berries cheaper?" Shiki questioned.
John looked at the few people before him with an unusually headache, and didn't want to stay in this place any longer, and quickly left.
And at this time, Whitebeard came to El's side, and asked with a serious expression.
"El, are you confident in obtaining Captain Rocks' approval?"
"Who knows." El spread his hands.
He didn't know, what level he needed to reach, in order to obtain Rocks' approval.
However.... he had to try.
"Although I don't want to admit it, but I think what John said just now was right, if you go to Captain Rocks now, there should still be a chance to choose one out of three among three billion Berries, eight Devil Fruits, and a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit!"
"If you fight tomorrow, you might not get anything." Whitebeard patted El's shoulder and said solemnly.
"I'm a greedy person, Edward, if I could get three, but in the end only chose one, I would regret it to death." El smiled slightly.
Devil Fruits, their importance to El, was self-evident.
Three billion Berries, this wasn't a small amount, it could allow him to purchase some Devil Fruits in the future.
As for the Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, although El didn't have the intention of eating it, nor did he have the intention of sacrificing it to Kurama.
However..... he still wanted to obtain it.
After all, this kind of valuable Devil Fruit.
If it was used for exchange in the future, he was afraid that he could exchange it for many ordinary Devil Fruits!!!
So, for Rocks' three rewards, his choice was naturally to take them all!
Hearing this, Whitebeard didn't say any more words of advice, but instead spoke to ask.
"Tomorrow is when you and Captain Rocks will exchange blows, before that, is there anything I can help you with, El?"
"Of course there is." El nodded.
"What is it?"
"How many Devil Fruit stocks do you have, Edward?"
El currently had five Devil Fruits in his hand, these five Devil Fruits could allow El to unlock the chakra of the Three-Tails.
However, with a great battle approaching, El was still not satisfied with only unlocking the chakra power of the Three-Tails.
If he could unlock the chakra power of more Tailed Beasts before tomorrow's battle, that would naturally be even better.
Whitebeard didn't ask what El needed the Devil Fruits for, but instead responded truthfully.
"I currently have three in my hand."
Although Whitebeard had already eaten a Devil Fruit.
But after all, he had been in the Rocks Pirates for such a long time, and had naturally also obtained countless dividends.
Among them, there were three Devil Fruits, that he had stored until now.
"I'll exchange them with you for one billion Berries, Edward." El said upon hearing this.
