Hearing this question from Lafitte, Rhine thought for a few seconds before speaking:
"No, before that, I want to confirm the status of each of you. Except for Lafitte, the other three are not Devil Fruit users, right?"
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, the four people on the boat looked at each other in blank dismay.
Burgess scratched his head and replied:
"Captain Teach once promised that as long as he saw a suitable Devil Fruit, he would help us get it and transfer it to us. However, except for Lafitte, who is originally a Devil Fruit user, the other three of us have not found a suitable Devil Fruit for us yet."
Rhine squeezed his chin and looked at the three of them for a while. After thinking for a moment, he said:
"I know a few abilities that are suitable for you."
As he spoke, Rhine glanced over Burgess, Van Augur, and Doc Q one by one, and said again:
"Burgess, your melee combat type suits Zoan the most, with its physical enhancement. Paramecia or Logia, with direct attacks, are good choices too, like Logia Mera-Mera no Mi or Paramecia Riki-Riki no Mi."
"Augur, as a sniper, you can improve your eyesight or enhance your concealment, such as the Giro-Giro no Mi of a female subordinate of Doflamingo or the Suke-Suke no Mi of a dead pervert under Moria's command."
"As for Doc Q, I think the most suitable one is the Doku-Doku no Mi of Impeldown Director Magellan."
Rhine made a thorough analysis, and he saw the four people's eyes shine.
"As expected of the captain! What a wonderful analysis!"
Burgess licked his lower lip, already impatient.
Lafitte calmly analyzed:
"But there are a few people here that we can't do anything with, such as Straw Hat Luffy. We still have to capture him for the World Government, and if we want to take his Devil Fruit away, we have to kill him first..."
To be honest, Luffy's Devil Fruit made Rhine quite entangled.
On the one hand, this thing is definitely an official cheat, one of the strongest fruits. It is impossible for Rhine not to be greedy.
But another problem is that the awakening conditions of this thing are too mysterious. It seems like you must be the reincarnation of Joy Boy.
Isn't this the same concept as the reincarnation of Indra and Ashura to awaken the power of the Six Paths?
Fvck blood theory.
After bowing his head and thinking for a moment, Rhine decided:
"Let's divide into two groups. Doc Q and Lafitte, you two go to the Sky Island."
"Burgess and Augur, you follow me to the Florian Triangle."
Hearing Rhine's order, the four of them were puzzled.
"Sky Island? Why do we go to that kind of place?" Lafitte asked first.
"There is a Goro-Goro no Mi user there, although I don't know if he is still there." Rhine half-emptied his eyes and said:
"If he is still alive, we have to take his Devil Fruit. That fruit's ability is a treasure to our group."
Although it has been a while since Enel was defeated by Luffy, it is hard to say whether he has already flown to the moon. Even if there is only a slight possibility, Rhine does not want to let it go.
Hearing the word Goro-Goro no Mi, Burgess's eyes lit up.
You know, that is the most destructive Logia type Devil Fruit!
Just as Burgess was about to speak, the half-dead Doc Q, who was lying on the sick horse, suddenly said:
"For example, if it's really a person with Goro-Goro no Mi... just, just me and Lafitte, is, is it enough?"
Rhine chuckled softly:
"Don't worry, I'm not asking the two of you to deal with him, but to destroy his spaceship. After I finish my business in the Florian Triangle, I will come to join you."
The only reason why Luffy was able to defeat Enel is because of plot armor. If only Lafitte and Doc Q, who haven't gotten the power of Devil Fruit yet, it's impossible to defeat Enel.
It never occurred to Rhine that the two could defeat each other. But only by destroying the Ark Maxim that Enel is planning to use, Rhine can make him stay at the Sky Island. At that time, he will take care of Enel himself.
"Understood, Captain."
Lafitte twirled his cane confidently.
Although he heard from Rhine that the other party has an extremely powerful Observation Haki, he is also very confident in his stealth ability.
You know, he once sneaked into Marineford without anyone noticing.
...
After Lafitte and Doc Q set off, Rhine took Burgess and Van Augur to Moria's territory—
Florian Triangle
There's a lot of what Rhine wants there.
Absalom's Devil Fruit, Ghost Princess Perona, Black Sword Shusui, and...
Monkey D. Luffy!
And after he showed such resolute judgment, the four crew members now trust him quite well as their captain.

[System reward issued: Conqueror's Haki Advanced Edition]
...
After a few days.
"Captain! When you get the Goro-Goro no Mi, can you give me the fruit??"
On the way to the Florian Triangle, Burgess asked.
Who is not greedy for the most powerful Logia?
Rhine lay on the deck and laughed:
"Burgess, that fruit is not suitable for you. A Devil Fruit that can't exert its full power is useless. You should wait patiently."
Burgess looked frustrated.
"Captain, we have entered the Florian Triangle."
Van Augur stared into the distance with vacant eyes and said calmly.
As soon as the words came out, Rhine and Burgess looked up. They saw that the sky, which was still cloudless just now, suddenly turned into a dark world.
This is Moria's place—
Florian Triangle!
