## Chapter 341: Mag-Mag Fruit Sakazuki
News about the Celestial Dragons descending to The Great Sea was non-existent, and most Faction paid little attention to it.
This was because they were attracted by another piece of intelligence.
The top-tier Logia-type Devil Fruit, the Mag-Mag Fruit, had appeared in the North Blue.
This intelligence, like a hurricane, swept through the entire North Blue Underworld in a short amount of time.
This powerful Devil Fruit was almost immediately targeted by many Faction.
The Marines, the World Government, Pirate, some powerful Lone Wolf, and Underworld Forces.
A top-tier Logia-type Devil Fruit, even if not eaten, could fetch over a billion Beli, possibly even two or three billion Beli, if sold.
For a Superpower like the Kronos Kingdom, spending six or seven billion Beli would not be an issue.
Wealth is indeed important, but beyond a certain degree, it becomes insignificant.
In an instant, a storm swept through the entire North Blue Underworld.
The gaze of various Faction focused on an Island in the North Blue named Campania Island.
Campania Island was the Base Camp of the Komora Family.
The Komora Family was a Gang Forces native to the North Blue.
Although the Gang in the North Blue were not as powerful or widespread as those in the West Blue.
As the most chaotic Sea Area, the North Blue also had many Gang Forces, though not many had become significant Faction.
And that Mag-Mag Fruit was in the hands of the Komora Family.
"Let's wait and see how things develop."
"By the time we reach the North Blue, it will be too late."
The intelligence had only spread for an hour, and many Faction had received it, but only a few Faction could truly participate.
Time was too short.
Who knew when this Logia-type Devil Fruit would be eaten?
All Faction immediately dispatched personnel, everyone harboring a glimmer of hope – what if they were the ones to obtain it?
The closer one was to Campania Island, the greater the advantage.
Meanwhile, the Komora Family was still unaware that the intelligence about the Mag-Mag Fruit had been exposed.
"Sakazuki, this is a great opportunity.
You absolutely must not miss this Devil Fruit."
The aged former Marine Admiral, North Blue Governor Davis "The Day Tiger", said seriously into the Den Den Mushi.
"Hurry to Campania Island.
No matter what happens, I will take responsibility."
"Borsalino is already heading your way, and I am also on my way."
A large Marine Headquarters Warship sailed away from the North Blue Governor's Office, its target precisely Campania Island.
And a flash of golden light moved even faster.
"I understand, Teacher Davis."
Hanging up the Den Den Mushi, the young Sakazuki's eyes were filled with determination, his fists clenched tightly.
Just as Davis had said, he did not want to miss this top-tier Devil Fruit.
It was too rare.
If he were to obtain it through the Marine Headquarters Treasury or the World Government's channels, who knew how long it would take?
Furthermore, after the great battle at God Valley, the World Government suffered massive losses in combatant strength and numerous treasures, including rare Devil Fruits, which were plundered and barely enough for their own supply.
How could they give them to the Marines?
Moreover, among the competitors for this Mag-Mag Fruit was the World Government itself.
The CP Organization, having received the intelligence, was also on its way, and they were also Sakazuki's competitors.
Borsalino, who had joined the Marines with him, had already eaten the Glint-Glint Fruit, another top-tier Logia type.
Borsalino was very lucky; acting alone, he confiscated the Glint-Glint Fruit after annihilating a group of Pirate.
Perhaps unaware of the Glint-Glint Fruit's ability, he planned to sell this unknown Devil Fruit, which was why he hadn't eaten it.
This benefited Borsalino, who, after identifying the Glint-Glint Fruit using the Marines' Devil Fruit Encyclopedia, ate it without hesitation.
Sakazuki was not as lucky as Borsalino.
However, he did not want to fall too far behind Borsalino.
He absolutely had to obtain this Mag-Mag Fruit!
Despite only holding the military rank of Sergeant, Sakazuki was specially authorized by Davis to possess a small Marine sailboat.
With his powerful strength, no one dared to say anything.
His location was also very close to Campania Island, only needing twenty minutes to arrive.
After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Davis dialed one phone number after another.
As the North Blue Governor, ruling the entire North Blue's Marines, he was an undeniable Important Figure; even Member Nation had to show him respect.
The Faction he had connections with were countless, some close, some hostile.
But this time, to give Sakazuki a greater probability of obtaining the Mag-Mag Fruit, he was willing to compromise with these Faction.
To satisfy some of these Faction's demands.
As long as he could gain the help of these Faction, even if it meant slightly damaging the Marines' interests, he was willing.
This was his determination.
He had very high hopes for Sakazuki.
Possessing monstrous potential.
Holding the same, or even more steadfast, Hawk Faction ideals as himself.
As long as he obtained a top-tier Devil Fruit, he could grow into a pillar of the Marines.
He absolutely had the potential to become a Marine Admiral and do even better than himself.
Davis, who had no child and had dedicated everything to the Marines, even regarded Sakazuki as his own son.
In a few more years, he would also retire.
His body, worn out from years of battle, was already covered in hidden injuries.
His own strength was only barely enough to suppress the North Blue.
Discovering Sakazuki and Borsalino, these two futures of the Marines, was his greatest relief.
As a representative of the Marine Hawk Faction, he was not satisfied with the situation of the Hawk Faction within the Marines.
The Dove Faction had clearly gained the upper hand; Zephyr and Tsuru were undoubtedly representatives of the Dove Faction.
Garp was a representative of the Neutral Faction, but everyone knew he was in cahoots with the Dove Faction.
The last Admiral, Sengoku, was the same, merely adopting a Hawk Faction style on the surface.
Davis saw Sengoku's essence very clearly.
Sengoku's seemingly tough approach was only temporary; he would eventually lean towards the Dove Faction.
Therefore, Sakazuki was the next generation Hawk Faction representative he intended to cultivate, while Borsalino was the Neutral Faction.
Facing Pirate, one absolutely had to be tough.
A dominant position for the Dove Faction was something he absolutely did not want to see.
"I've done everything I can.
The rest is up to you, Sakazuki."
Davis's heart was not peaceful.
On Campania Island, the great battle had already begun.
Pirate Crew after Pirate Crew charged onto the Island, and some Underworld Forces and Bounty Hunter also took the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
A chaotic slaughter unfolded; everyone wanted to obtain that Devil Fruit.
A young man, wearing a cloak, held a sword in one hand, constantly killing.
Severed limbs, heads flying, blood splattering.
For Sakazuki, he was not considered a Swordsman; the sword in his hand was merely a weapon.
He knew he couldn't keep going down this path forever.
He quickly approached the direction where the Mag-Mag Fruit was located.
"Damn it, kill him!"
Sakazuki's killing attracted the attention of many Faction.
Amidst the free-for-all, they each sent out combatant strength to surround and attack this unknown, most threatening fellow.
Sakazuki fell into an ambush.
The box containing the Mag-Mag Fruit had been taken, but it constantly changed hands; basically, no one could hold onto it for ten seconds.
Sakazuki's heart also started to get anxious; facing the ambush, the box seemed to be getting further and further away from him.
Finally, a man opened the box, excitedly grabbed the dark red Devil Fruit, and opened his mouth, intending to eat it.
Just at this critical moment, a golden light flashed, and the Mag-Mag Fruit in his hand disappeared.
A figure appeared before him.
"Speed is strength.
Have you ever been kicked at light speed?"
Borsalino had arrived.
With a light speed kick, the terrifying force sent the man's body flying hundreds of meters away.
Immediately after, carrying the Mag-Mag Fruit, he came to Sakazuki's side and dealt with two Pirate with two more kicks.
With a light toss, the Mag-Mag Fruit fell into Sakazuki's hands.
"Almost too late, that was really close, Sakazuki.
How are you going to thank me?"
Borsalino raised an eyebrow, looking at Sakazuki with a face full of expectation.
"You arrived just in time.
Before that, let me deal with all of them."
Sakazuki didn't answer directly, but a smile appeared on his face.
He opened his mouth and ate the Mag-Mag Fruit.
A continuous stream of power surged out, and scorching lava flowed from his body.
His sharp gaze stared at the surrounding evil Faction, and intense killing intent erupted from his heart.
"All of you shall be buried here!"
Borsalino stood quietly in mid-air with his hands in his pockets, watching Sakazuki perform.
After some time, North Blue Governor Davis finally arrived at Campania Island.
By this time, Campania Island was already ravaged.
Seeing the two familiar figures, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
