Seeing that it was a heart-shaped fruit, Chronos immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and mouthed to Hancock, "It's okay!"
Knowing the plot, Chronos knew that this was the Devil Fruit that Hancock would get in the future, and that she would get it when she was captured by the Celestial Dragons.
He figured the powers of the Love-Love Fruit would get Hancock through this crisis and she would be safe.
Seeing Chronos tell her that it was okay, Hancock's unease somehow lessened. After taking the fruit, Hancock mustered up her courage and took a bite.
Although the Love-Love Fruit looked good, being a pink heart-shaped fruit, it still tasted like a Devil Fruit, which immediately made Hancock's face contort with disgust, her features all scrunched up.
After eating the fruit, Hancock's entire being exuded a seductive aura, causing people to unknowingly feel affection for her and become infatuated.
The surrounding slaves who saw Hancock had hearts in their eyes, and they clasped their hands to their cheeks, staring at her like perverts.
Saint Charlos was no exception, but he wasn't thinking of possessing Hancock. Instead, he wanted to show her off to his sister.
To a Celestial Dragon, no matter how beautiful a woman was, she was just an inferior being, a toy. Only a Celestial Dragon was worthy of a Celestial Dragon.
"Hahaha, it seems like an interesting fruit! Hurry up and show me your ability, give me more surprises!"
Saint Charlos shouted excitedly, jumping with joy at the prospect of gaining a toy he could show off.
After eating the Devil Fruit, Hancock instantly understood the basic ability of the fruit, which was to turn people who were infatuated with her into stone.
However, having just eaten the fruit, Hancock didn't know how to use the ability. She started sweating, worried that she would be killed. So she looked to Chronos for help, hoping he could give her some assistance.
Chronos saw Hancock's helpless expression, and quickly pointed at the half-eaten fruit in her hand, then made a heart shape with his hands.
Inspired by Chronos, Hancock made a heart shape with her hands, and slowly pushed it towards a pervert with hearts in his eyes.
Just then, Hancock felt the power of the fruit quickly gather in her hands, forming a pink heart that floated towards the pervert.
When the heart touched the pervert, his entire body instantly turned to stone.
"Hahaha, so interesting, this fruit ability is fun!"
Saint Charlos bounced over to the petrified pervert, and with a gentle push, the statue fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. Just like that, a living person died again at the hands of Saint Charlos, but Saint Charlos felt no pity for a life, and instead clapped his hands and shouted with joy.
All because... it was fun!
Damn Celestial Dragons!
When he read the manga, Chronos already detested the high-and-mighty trashy Celestial Dragons.
Now, having personally experienced their maliciousness, he believed that this kind of trash must be eliminated!
He wasn't sure if it was because he had just transmigrated and was still getting used to it, or because killing Celestial Dragons had become the original owner's obsession.
Chronos couldn't control the murderous intent in his heart, and he kept having thoughts of killing the Celestial Dragons.
To hide his murderous intent, Chronos kept his head down most of the time, afraid that if someone noticed, they would kill him while he was still weak.
But the more you try to avoid trouble, the more it finds you. Just then, Chronos saw a hand holding a Devil Fruit reach out in front of him, and a cold voice commanded him, "Eat it!"
Chronos's eyes widened instantly, but he wasn't scared, he was ecstatic.
When he first arrived in this world, he had tried to see if he had any transmigrator benefits, like a system or abilities from other anime worlds, but unfortunately, he had none.
He was just an ordinary transmigrator without any powers. In this dangerous world, to survive, he had to become strong.
Otherwise, if pirates came and killed him one day, he would be powerless to resist.
There are three main ways to get stronger in the world of pirates: Haki, Devil Fruits, and swordsmanship.
But Haki and swordsmanship require a long time to learn and become proficient in, and they couldn't help him survive at this stage.
But Devil Fruit abilities were different.
Even without development, they could make him instantly stronger. The problem was, he didn't know what fruit he was eating.
He just hoped it wasn't a Zoan-type fruit, because if it was, Saint Charlos would definitely kill him. He had to find a way to make the fruit's ability seem interesting!
Chronos took the fruit and took a bite without hesitation. The moment the fruit entered his mouth, Chronos's eyes bulged.
A foul smell shot straight to his head, and the extremely disgusting taste felt like it was touching his soul, making him involuntarily tremble.
However, Chronos didn't care about the taste of the fruit, which was like a mix of various spices added to excrement.
He chewed it a couple of times and swallowed it quickly.
After eating the Devil Fruit, Chronos instantly felt his whole body undergoing an invisible change, but the change was not significant.
And in his mind, information about the fruit appeared.
[Bounce-Bounce Fruit]: Can absorb damage and reflect it.
It was an extremely simple piece of information, but it made Chronos very glad that it wasn't a Zoan-type but a Paramecia-type fruit!
It's not that Chronos looked down on Zoan-type fruits.
If a Zoan-type fruit is developed well, it's no less powerful than any other fruit, and in terms of physical enhancement, it's even stronger.
For example, the immortal Kaido of the Beasts.
He developed his Zoan-type fruit to an extremely monstrous degree, which made him one of the Four Emperors and an existence that the Navy could not kill.
But that requires development and awakening to become so powerful. And right now, he was facing a life-or-death crisis.
If his fruit ability wasn't interesting enough for Saint Charlos, he would die!
"Come on, come on, show me what your ability is!"
Saint Charlos looked at Chronos with anticipation, hoping Chronos would bring him some entertainment.
But Chronos didn't show his ability. He just stood there quietly. Hancock looked at Chronos worriedly.
After all, Chronos was the first person she had met in this hell who was willing to help them, and if it weren't for Chronos just now, she might have already been killed by Saint Charlos.
Chronos suddenly looked up at Saint Charlos.
"Shoot me!"
"Huh???"
