Chapitre 718: Settling Down [2]

"Tsk."

Coming out of the Duchess's room, I clicked my tongue. 

'I tried at least.' 

Lowering my head, I looked at the three other tubes in my hand before putting them away. 

Moments prior, I tried to negotiate for a devil fruit, but I was flat out rejected by her.

In the end, all I could do was leave with my head lowered. 

'I can't be too impatient.'

I even had a very good night's sleep for once.

'It's not like there won't be an opportunity later.'

"You're back?"

"Yeah."
