Chapter 736: The Mysterious General Manager Saga
Looking at this Devil Fruit, it seemed to exude endless attraction towards him, captivating him.
Teach couldn't help but swallow.
"Take it. The points will be automatically deducted, and this Devil Fruit will be yours." Saga looked at Teach with interest.
He was quite interested in this Top-tier Monster, one of the few since the Sky Arena was established.
For Saga, who inherited Hades' special Observation Haki Talent, very little could be hidden from him on Paros Island.
Furthermore, combined with the powerful Psychic Fruit, his mysterious strength could easily cover the entire Island, allowing him to control everything.
Moreover, behind Teach were his father's plans.
Besides his Monster-level Potential, there must be some other mysterious trait that his father valued.
However, he wasn't clear on what it was.
Two of his younger brothers had joined his Subordinates, and the planning had begun when they were only five or six years old.
This clearly indicated a major move was underway.
Teach's importance was self-evident.
As for Teach, upon hearing Saga's voice, he snapped back from his focus on the Dark-Dark Fruit.
Looking at Saga, a deep sense of dread rose within him towards this mysterious blue-haired man.
He felt an extremely dangerous aura.
He knew Saga, but didn't know his name.
On Paros Island, he would sometimes see his figure.
Saga couldn't always stay behind the scenes; he often walked around the Island or watched the battles of the top-tier competitors.
Undoubtedly, he was an Important Figure managing the entire Sky Arena, and even Paros Island itself.
The Sky Arena staff were very respectful when they encountered him.
Some hidden information that came to light proved this point.
Even Garon, the Sky Arena Vice Manager who instilled fear and created the Puppet-like Faceless One Legion, often stood behind him.
If Garon was the Sky Arena Vice Manager, then what about Saga?
Undoubtedly, he was the General Manager!
This was a truly Important Figure!
Although there was no concrete evidence, on The Great Sea, it was already speculated within the Sky Arena that they were likely the Son of Hades.
After all, behind Paros Island was the Kronos Kingdom, and "Pluto" Hades.
After so many years, many people understood that Paros Island actually didn't have much to do with the Pluto Pirates; it was mainly managed by another Faction.
Similarly, Puto Island, the "City of Shipbuilding" in the New World located in the Pluto Sea Area, was never within the management range of the Pluto Pirates; personnel were merely arranged to guard it.
The influence of the Kronos Kingdom was everywhere.
The Emperor of the Kingdom was "Pluto" Hades, a colossus even more terrifying than the Pluto Pirates.
And the Pluto Pirates were merely a part of the Kronos Kingdom.
However, to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to plunder the treasures within the Sky Arena Treasury, even if they were lost internally after delivery, it would be a disgrace to the Sky Arena's official reputation.
Therefore, when delivering treasures, Strongmen would generally be present to witness it.
Previously, the more precious treasures were overseen by Vice Manager Garon.
Unexpectedly, this time it was this mysterious General Manager.
In front of Saga, Teach didn't dare to be so arrogant, not just because of the strength Saga represented, but also because of the strength that was like an abyss or a sea.
It seemed he saw Teach's surprise and confusion.
Saga's appearance was slightly amiable.
"Don't worry, for some especially precious treasures, I will personally handle the delivery."
"I hope you don't let it down. After all, its previous master was an Important Figure that even the World Government feared."
Giving Teach a mysterious hint, Saga used his ability.
Invisible psychic power grabbed the Dark-Dark Fruit, and the Dark-Dark Fruit floated into the air, flying towards Teach.
Hmm?
The previous master of the Dark-Dark Fruit?
Saga's words made Teach a little curious, but Saga didn't give him the answer.
But it didn't matter; he would find out himself.
Besides, no matter how strong the previous master of the Dark-Dark Fruit was, it had nothing to do with him.
Because from now on, he was the Dark-Dark Fruit Ability User.
He had the confidence to become the "Strongest," to become the strongest Dark-Dark Fruit Ability User in history.
Of course, if he knew that the previous master of the Dark-Dark Fruit was Rocks D. Xebec, he wouldn't think that way.
Whether in the past or the future, Rocks D. Xebec was a towering mountain that countless Pirates found difficult to surpass.
Because he once ruled Shiki "The Golden Lion", ruled "Whitebeard" Edward Newgate, and ruled all the most Top-tier Monsters on The Great Sea today.
He even ruled the New World, stirring up endless chaos.
Shiki "The Golden Lion" was the person closest to Rocks D. Xebec, or perhaps had already reached that degree.
Although Shiki was unable to rule the New World.
That was because in this era, the strength of Pirates was truly terrifying, much stronger than in the past.
Even if Rocks D. Xebec were to reappear, he would be unable to rule the entire New World and make all the Top-tier Monsters submit to his Subordinates.
Just Shiki "The Golden Lion" and "Whitebeard" Edward Newgate alone possessed powerful combat strength no less than Rocks'.
Back then, facing the combined strength of Shiki, Newgate, and Hades, Rocks could still gain the upper hand.
But what about now?
One-on-one would be fine, but if any two of them teamed up, Rocks would be in a losing situation.
"Do you want to eat it now? Or eat it outside?" Watching Teach hold the Dark-Dark Fruit in his hand, Saga couldn't help but ask.
"This is a Secret Room with enough space. No matter how much commotion you make, it will be difficult for anyone outside to notice."
Saga was also a little curious.
Although he knew from his father that the Dark-Dark Fruit was Rocks' ability and related to gravity.
He still wanted to witness the specific effects of the ability with his own eyes.
After all, Rocks had hidden himself too deeply and rarely used the Dark-Dark Fruit ability.
The true exposure was during the Battle of God Valley.
The Dark-Dark Fruit's eruption was merely a fleeting moment, and soon after, Rocks died.
Under the Heavenly King's bombardment, a peak Rocks might have survived, but Rocks, having gone through successive great battles, found it difficult to endure.
"Zehahaha! I can't wait any longer!" Teach laughed excitedly.
Wasn't all his previous effort for this very moment?
If that was the case, what was he waiting for?
