Summer shook his head with a smile and explained to Dong Xiang: “This is a Devil Fruit… It’s a Zoan-type Phoenix Devil Fruit, and eating it will awaken superpowers.”
“There are fruits this amazing? It must be very valuable, right?”
Dong Xiang’s eyes widened. Last night, she had experienced the magic of the fruit’s powers firsthand. She never imagined that obtaining such powers could be so simple.
“This world should be the only place I have one.” Summer glanced at the Devil Fruit on the table. “The value of a Zoan-type fruit is even higher than that of a Logia-type fruit.”
“Based on this fruit’s abilities, it could even beat an SSS-level store manager, right?!” Dong Xiang pointed at the Devil Fruit with disbelief. “And you just gave it to me like this?”
“You can’t escape this for the rest of your life. You ate my food, so you’re my person. I don’t want any accidents to happen to my own people.” Summer said very seriously. He wasn’t crazy. There were so many good women in this world. If he hadn’t met her, it wouldn’t matter, but now she’s in his grasp, there’s no way he’s letting her run away.
Dong Xiang was stunned for a long time before turning to Summer and asking, “Summer-kun, I have a younger brother. When Summer-kun is able to cure ghouls, could you give him a chance?”
“Your little brother, huh? Of course, no problem.” Summer nodded casually. “But that kid is still a bit rebellious. You should beat up your little brother while you’re young.”
Dong Xiang understood. Even with his abilities, Summer-kun couldn’t save all the ghouls. Most ghouls were not worth saving.
To keep it a secret, she needed to get her brother out of Aogiri Tree first. If her brother dared to resist, she’d break his legs.
“Then, please take care of me from now on, Summer-kun.” Dong Xiang blushed, her gaze fixed on Summer.
Summer chuckled. This second wife was still quite reserved. Take your time. She can’t run away anyway.
Picking up the Devil Fruit, Dong Xiang pursed her lips and said, “After I eat it, will we be able to go on adventures?”
“Next time, next time for sure. You need to adapt for a few days first.” Summer comforted her. “Don’t worry. I’ll put a week’s worth of food in the fridge. Stay at home and look after things these few days.”
“Oh.” Dong Xiang nodded obediently. Now that they were officially together, she no longer feared that her long-term meal ticket would run away.
The next moment, she took a bite of the fruit.
With everything arranged,
Summer packed over a hundred servings of rice into three vehicles and drove towards the Far East Tokyo region.
The journey was full of mountains and valleys, with armed personnel guarding the way. They even had to cross a body of water.
Following the system’s navigation and relying on their group’s formidable strength, they traversed the blockade zone in a thrilling but ultimately safe ten-hour journey.
Summer arrived in Fukushima with curiosity, only to find that this remote area was actually quite lively.
It was a stroke of luck,
Did they encounter a Level 5 Scorpion invasion?
Looking at the monster in the sea and the police officers running around, Summer wondered.
He was watching the commotion, but he didn’t realize that his group was the most conspicuous sight in the crowd.
An old-fashioned tracked vehicle was towing an electric tricycle,
Pots, pans, and tableware were neatly arranged on the vehicle, along with foldable tables, chairs, and small stools.
This was a food cart?
The combination of the two vehicles left the police officers speechless.
What was going on?
Was this guy lost?
Was he camping and picnicking here?
Was he crazy?
This was a battlefield, how could someone be so ridiculous!
He even brought his whole family.
The bewildered officers silently watched Summer’s actions.
Then they saw him start frying rice, and the tricycle even lit up its sign: Dimension Fried Rice.
Everyone exchanged glances, stunned beyond belief.
Summer ignored them.
They had been on the road for a day and were all starving. Even though it was past mealtime, they couldn’t miss their daily meals.
He started cooking.
Four portions of egg fried rice were ready quickly, one for each person. He then boiled a pot of seaweed and egg soup, perfect.
“What the hell is going on? Is that a food stall?”
“Doing business here?”
“Selling fried rice on a battlefield?”
“You’re a tough one!”
The Royal Guard nearby was going crazy. They stared at Summer with extreme confusion and momentarily forgot to drive him away.
This place was deserted, even during normal times. How could this guy be so out of his mind to set up a stall here?
“Go, go, go. Let’s go take a look. Is he really doing business?”
A few police officers in charge of setting up the cordon finished their tasks and, having nothing else to do, were curious about Summer and his group. They walked over directly.
“Boss, what are you doing? Selling fried rice?”
Summer heard the sound and was about to look up and answer, but Xiao Bei Chang Tan had already enthusiastically greeted them.
“Uncle officers, do you want some fried rice? My brother’s fried rice is absolutely delicious. It’s only 1,000 Dan per serving?”
The police officers: ???
“You really are setting up a stall?”
Their confusion on their faces was so obvious that even Summer felt a bit awkward.
If he hadn’t miscalculated the distance and realized that he wouldn’t be able to sell the 100+ servings of rice he had prepared this morning, I wouldn’t want to tempt you guys to come over.
As he thought this, Summer’s speed didn’t slow down.
Soon, the four people’s dinner was cooked and plated.
The police officers were very curious about Summer’s train of thought.
Especially setting up a stall right at the edge of the battlefield. They hadn’t had dinner yet, and this was perfect.
So, they gathered around and wanted to see how the boss’s skills were.
They weren’t jealous of the boss’s 1,000 Dan, but they wanted to see if it was worth it.
The aroma spread further and further, attracting more and more people.
Many police officers came to find out what their colleagues were doing with something so delicious.
Soon, the police officers and mercenaries on the front line knew that a tough guy had come and was selling egg fried rice outside the Waste Building.
This immediately sparked everyone’s curiosity.
It wasn’t uncommon to see street vendors selling fried rice.
But they had never seen anyone who dared to set up a stall on the front line while facing a Level 5 Centipede creature.
This boss really doesn’t care about his life.
