Chapter 493 - The Secret of the Divine Tree

There was a time when Luo Qing also envied the unbreakable bond of friendship between the Straw Hat troupe (Naruto and Erzhu were in love, and would not accept any form of rebuttal! And now he doesn't need to envy others, because he has his own chains of bonds!

"Although you all have a point, as a captain it would be disappointing if I didn't come forward at this time, and I have to be given a chance to save my life as a hero, maybe when Robin wakes up she'll give me her hand in marriage? I won't let anyone else have this kind of coveted opportunity." Luo Qing said as she walked to Robin's side, then followed her example and placed her hand on top of the divine tree despite the others' dissuasion.

"Captain!"

Baby-5 and others scream out in shock!

As for the words like saving a beauty and giving her body to a hero, of course they were used as an excuse for joking, but couldn't they see that Robin, who is always gentle to others, looked at someone completely differently?

However, they couldn't stop Luo Qing, the captain of the ship, from rescuing his crew, which was his responsibility and his choice!

When Luo Qing's hand finally touched the surface of the divine tree, his head suddenly exploded into a daze, the feeling like a soul leaving the body but not, if I had to describe it, it would probably be the spirit and the divine tree became one, then gradually more and more images appeared in front of his eyes!

In the beginning of the world, a divine tree of origin was born, which was so huge that it could cover the sky and reach the clouds.

After countless years, the tree gradually became spiritual and began to instinctively bear fruit. The power of nature, such as darkness, earth, wind, fire, and thunder, was condensed into a small fruit.

After many more years, everything in the world began to be perfected, flowers and trees, birds and beasts came and went, and the cycle began again and again. Legendary creatures such as dragons and immortal birds dominated the top of the food chain, and primitive species such as dinosaurs and mammoths roamed the earth!

So before you know it, the tree has another batch of fruit, which contains all the creatures it has seen.

After years of evolution and competition, legendary creatures such as dragons and undead birds disappeared, and primitive species such as dinosaurs and mammoths all became extinct, until the emergence of humans who could walk upright.

As the most resilient and intelligent creatures, human beings learned to use fire and to make weapons to fight against beasts after all kinds of tribulations, and civilization was born gradually!

The Tree of God, which stood proudly in the world, became the symbol of the rise of mankind and the totem engraved on it.

Because it sheltered these weaklings with its branches when mankind was at its weakest stage, it may have been an act of which he was not even aware, but it influenced the development of the whole world.

As a result, mankind began to believe in the sacred tree and prayed to it every day.

Under this kind of subtle influence, the tree gradually underwent some kind of change, and it 'learned' from the whims of mankind, and produced countless strange fruits in itself.

Humans created doors where they lived, so the concept of 'door' appeared in the spiritual nature of the tree, and a fruit quietly solidified.

Humans began to mend their clothes with a 'needle and thread', and another fruit appeared!

With the development of civilization, all kinds of fierce and mutated beasts started hunting humans everywhere for food, and humans from different tribes started attacking each other, stealing everything they needed.

When a group of people knelt down in front of it, crying and asking for shelter, the tree was dazed.

Then it remembered the countless fruits it had borne.

So the group was given the gift of the tree, and the magical fruit transformed each one of them, some with thunder and lightning in their hands, others as Vulcan descending on them, and still others as extinct ancient beasts roaring and roaring!

When the lucky ones who were favored by the Tree returned, the war was instantly turned around, and the anti(river crab) offensive trumpet of the human race was blown.

So far, mankind had entered a period of rapid development, establishing nations, inventing words, and creating all kinds of strange and weird things to offer to the divine tree, which would occasionally send down its own condensed fruit to increase the strength of the human race.

In an instant, thousands of centuries passed, and mankind became the rulers of the world, with various kingdoms established on top of the world, and then came war, disintegration, and insatiable greed!

Add to this the fact that the Lunarians, who left the lunar metropolis of Birka for the Blue Planet due to a lack of resources, have also joined the fight for resources, and the war is on the horizon!

It was in this environment that the super battleship, the Hades, was born.

During this time, the divine tree witnessed the rise and fall of mankind and became a sacred object that mankind fought each other for!

As the saying goes, the one who has the sacred tree will have the world!

I don't know when this saying started to spread over the sea, because everyone knew that the fruit with magical power from the Tree was the key to winning or losing a war, and as more and more people with power died in the war, the demand for the fruit of the Tree became greater and greater, and the people who came to pray for the fruit were not satisfied with the status quo.

To some people, the Tree was just a somewhat magical tree, so why should they be foolish enough to ask for its fruit? Why not just snatch all the fruit that condenses on top of the divine tree?

As the war progressed, someone finally couldn't wait any longer, and it was a gathering of thousands of powerhouses.

These people chose to use the power given to them by the Tree to fight against it. In this battle, the human forces protecting the Tree were all killed, and the Tree was battered and bruised in the counterattack, so that in the end it was powerless to let these people take away all the remaining fruit from it.

Although the Tree has a spiritual nature, as some people say, it is just a tree after all, and it never thought that its 'followers' would treat it like this, and it still uses the fruit power it has worked so hard to condense!

So the angry tree sent out a curse with its last power, cursing those demons to be rejected by the sea for the rest of their lives!

So far, the tree disappeared, leaving only a myriad of fruits with different abilities that turned the user himself into a duck, which were passed down throughout the world and gradually became known to the world as Devil's Fruits-meaning the embodiment of the demons of the sea!
