Chapter 8 - Lucky Girl Viewer Gets a Paramecia-Type — the String-String Fruit!

: Holy sh*t!!

: No way, bro—are you for real?!

: Damn it! I haven't even stepped out the door today, and you're telling me someone already found another Devil Fruit?!

: What kind of broken luck is this?!

: Wait, bro… are you sure you're not seeing things? Better idea—send it to me first, let me check it for you. 😏

: GTFO, dude. I know exactly what you're scheming even with my eyes closed! Bro, don't listen to him. Just drop me your address and I'll come verify it personally!

: The hell? You're just as shady, man!

"Hm?"

"It mutated? Just from a random fruit she bought?"

Yuuto Kagami blinked in surprise after spotting a particular comment in the chat.

He hadn't expected someone to get this lucky—just sitting at home and stumbling into a Devil Fruit.

Still…

He quickly composed himself and nodded enthusiastically. "Of course we can check it out!"

"I'll add you to the stream now—accept the invite!"

With a few swift clicks, Yuuto Kagami sent the invitation.

And within seconds, the other party accepted.

In the next moment, the livestream split-screened—and a new feed appeared on the right side.

The camera shook slightly.

Then, a beautiful face came into focus—it was a high-appearance-rate girl with delicate features!

: Yo! A girl?!

: Damn… she's cute. Reminds me of my first crush. I think I'm in love.

: Wait, it was a female viewer who found the Devil Fruit?!

: Great, now I'm really jealous. Not only is she pretty, but her luck is insane too!

: Hey girl, wanna exchange contacts? 😏

On screen, the girl looked incredibly excited.

She took a deep breath, her voice slightly trembling as she introduced herself.

"H-hi, Brother Fan!"

"M-my name is Shen Lele!"

"Relax, no need to be nervous."

Yuuto Kagami offered her a few calming words.

Once she had steadied herself, Yuuto Kagami got straight to the point. "Miss Shen Lele, why don't you show us this 'mutated fruit' you mentioned?"

"O-okay!"

Shen Lele nodded rapidly.

Then, she lifted up a strange-looking fruit from beside her.

Its shape vaguely resembled a pear, but the surface was covered in bizarre, intricate swirls.

The overall appearance was extremely unusual.

Seeing this, Yuuto Kagami immediately had a pretty good idea of what it was.

Those distinct patterns…

That fruit was almost certainly a real Devil Fruit!

: Yo! That thing looks just like the Frozen-Fruit the streamer ate earlier!

: Judging by Yuuto Kagami's expression, I'd say it's the real deal!

: So what kind of Devil Fruit is it? Could it be a Mythical Zoan? Or another Logia like the Frozen-Fruit?!

: Mythical Zoan? No way. Didn't the streamer say Mythicals and Logias are super rare? I think it's probably a Zoan-Type.

: I'm new here… so this is what a Devil Fruit looks like? Those patterns are kinda creepy…

: That's why they're called Devil Fruits! These things hold supernatural power!

: Why is no one guessing Paramecia? Paramecia-type fruits can be insanely powerful too!

As viewers flooded the chat with theories about the fruit's type…

Yuuto Kagami activated the system's scanning function.

In the next moment, the fruit's full information appeared in front of his eyes.

"It's the String-String Fruit!"

Yuuto Kagami's eyes widened slightly as he read the information displayed by the World Treasure Appraisal system.

He hadn't expected this at all.

After all—

The original wielder of this fruit in One Piece was none other than one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea: Donquixote Doflamingo!

Although Doflamingo had been eliminated relatively early in the story, his popularity among fans remained sky-high.

And it wasn't just because of his twisted charisma—

His terrifying mastery over the String-String Fruit and his deep development of its powers played a huge part.

Yuuto Kagami couldn't even count how many times he'd been amazed while watching the anime.

A fruit that seemed so "ordinary" on the surface…

But in Doflamingo's hands, it became a weapon no weaker than the most powerful abilities in the series.

He'd even managed to awaken it.

As Yuuto Kagami continued reading the details of the fruit, Shen Lele timidly asked from the other end of the stream, "Brother Fan… so… is this really a Devil Fruit?"

Her question snapped Yuuto Kagami back to reality.

Under the expectant eyes of Shen Lele and the entire chat, Yuuto Kagami finally smiled and nodded.

"Congratulations—what you're holding is indeed a real Devil Fruit!"

: HOLY SHT HOLY SHT HOLY SH*T!!!

: It's real! It's really a Devil Fruit! This girl is insanely lucky!

: Nope. I don't care how pretty she is—I'm still mad jealous!

: I literally bought out an entire fruit shop and didn't find a single damn thing! She casually picks up a few and boom—Jackpot!

: The difference between people is greater than the difference between pigs and dogs. Give up now.

: Miss, how about selling that Devil Fruit to me? I'll pay 100,000!

: 100k? Get outta here. I'll pay a million!

: You fools need to shut it. No one with a brain would sell something this priceless. I just wanna know—what type is it?!

: Yeah! Brother Fan, what type of Devil Fruit did Miss Shen get? What powers does it grant?!

The chat scrolled so fast it was hard to read.

Meanwhile, Shen Lele finally snapped out of her shocked daze.

She shook her head hard, trying to calm herself down.

Then, cradling the Devil Fruit gently in her hands, she nervously asked, "Then… Brother Fan, can you tell me… what kind of Devil Fruit is this?"
