Chapter 46 The Penguin Visits
This is a fruit that is really strong enough to explode, and it is also one of Zhao Yu's favorite fruits.
Moreover, Fire Fist Ace, the first user of Yasho Fruit, will also appear in the next data chapter, Alabasta.
The character of Ace is also one of the characters that Zhao Yu has always liked very much.
Ace's full name is Portgas D. Ace, and he is Luffy and Sabo's foster brother.
His real name should be Gol D. Ace, but he is actually the posthumous son of "One Piece" Gol D. Roger. When he grows up, he may hate his father or want to hide his identity, so he changed his surname to his biological mother Portgas. D·Lu Jiu's surname.
He has black hair and often wears an orange hat, which has two expressions of smirking and sad, and a skull brand is tied to the rope of the hat.
Ace's strength is extraordinary. When he went to sea, he formed the Spades Pirates. He was once invited to join the King Shichibukai, but he refused.
Later, he failed to challenge Whitebeard, and the Spades Pirates were incorporated by Whitebeard. After attacking Whitebeard hundreds of times, he revealed his identity to Whitebeard.
But he was moved by the white beard who didn't care about his life experience, and eventually became the captain of the second team of the white beard pirates.
For Ace, he does not allow anyone to hurt Luffy or slander Whitebeard, otherwise he may directly attack the other party.
The tattoo of the Whitebeard Pirates on his back is his pride.
Until his subordinate Marshall D. Titch killed Sage (the captain of the fourth team of the Whitebeard Pirates), committed the worst crime in the Whitebeard Pirates, and killed his companions.
Ace was very angry and said that he was going to hunt Tiki, but Whitebeard actually wanted to stop him, but finally acquiesced.
After being defeated by Blackbeard, he was handed over to the navy and imprisoned in the large submarine prison.
In the end, because he protected Luffy in the top battle, he used his body to block Admiral Akainu's magma fist, but it was pierced through the body.
He eventually died from his injuries.
In fact, because of Ace's death, Zhao Yu once hated Akainu very much.
But after a long time, I found out that from the standpoint of Akainu, he was actually not wrong.
He was originally the hawk in the navy, the mortal enemy of the pirates.
And it can be said that he is the only one among the top navy's combat power in the top war who has advanced to all-out combat.
Everyone hated him at first because the two popular characters, Ace and Whitebeard, both died because of him.
After briefly recalling these plots, Zhao Yuchu continued to pay attention to the trend of Shaoshaoguo.
Under the lure of money, the person who set out to burn the fruit, and soon officially announced the news that the fruit would be auctioned.
The Fujiatianxia Chamber of Commerce got the opportunity of this auction. After they got the devil fruit, they directly conducted the auction through live broadcast.
Several major game clubs in the world followed suit for a while, and they all stood aside immediately after the major consortiums entered the arena.
In the end, Penguin Company, a super enterprise in Huaguo, won the competition, and they won the Shao Shao Guo at a price of 210 million.
Although Penguin is also a major game manufacturer, the birth of this game has caused them a lot of losses.
But the losses have already been incurred, and it is meaningless to continue to struggle, it is better to enter the market as soon as possible to get a share of the pie.
At the same time, it was also announced that major super companies will enter the arena, and the long-standing club rankings in the game industry will be greatly impacted.
But this is destined, this game is very different from previous games.

"Boss, Bai Li, the head of Penguin's game division, is looking for you."
When Zhao Yu was seriously practicing the next day, Jiaojiao contacted him and said.
If you don't practice, you can't do it! He has only completed less than one-third of the cheats required by the knowledgeable domineering, and it is still a relatively simple part.
"The person in charge of Penguin's game department? What does he want me to do? Want to sponsor our club?"
When Zhao Yu came up, he immediately answered three questions about quality.
"It should be. Isn't our contract with Xingchen about to expire? They should have heard the wind."
"It's impossible for them to give up potential stocks like ours."
Jiaojiao spoke to Zhao Yu in a proud tone.
Due to the sponsorship of Nineteen Continents, Xingchen's sales have more than tripled.
Nineteen Continents and Zhao Yu played an advertising role in it, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
Because the contract was only signed for half a year, Xing Chen is now very anxious to renew the contract.
But Zhao Yu didn't agree, he had to wait until the club was formally established before talking about it.
Zhao Yu didn't know whether Penguin knew this, but he packed up quickly and came to the tavern in Rogge Town that they had agreed upon.
Why make an appointment in this kind of place, of course because this is a safe zone!
"Mr. Bai, this is Mr. Zhao Yu, the president of our guild. His in-game nickname is Zongjian Kuangge."
After Zhao Yu came to the tavern and saw everyone, Jiaojiao stood up and introduced that she was really becoming more and more like a perfect secretary.
"I have admired your name for a long time, please take a seat."
Zhao Yu checked Bai Li's information on the Internet just now, and at the age of 39 this year, he is already one of the few high-level executives in Penguin.
But after the meeting, Zhao Yu said that he was 29 years old and believed that a very well-maintained middle-aged handsome guy had a game nickname called Bai Li.
"Mr. Bai has been waiting for a long time. I like to get straight to the point. I don't know why Mr. Bai invited us here today?" Zhao Yu asked directly after taking his seat.
Bai Li on the opposite side obviously didn't expect Zhao Yu to be so direct, but he reacted quickly.
"Student Zhao is really quick to talk, so I won't hide it."
"We know that the cooperation between Nineteen Continents and Xingchen Company is about to expire. We think Chairman Zhao can consider us Penguin when he is looking for the next partner."
After hearing Bai Li's intentions, Zhao Yu and Jiaojiao looked at each other, and they said in their hearts, "It's true!"
Afterwards, Bai Li, a career elite, seemed to understand Zhao Yu's character in an instant, and took out a contract and said to Zhao Yu: "This is the contract we prepared, Chairman Zhao, please have a look."
Zhao Yu took over the contract and looked at it directly. Penguin intends to inject 200 million plus the newly obtained Shaoshaoguo to take 40% of the shares of the yet-to-be-established Nineteen Continents Club and Nineteen Continents Guild. The follow-up investment and profit model are to be determined .
They promised not to intervene in the daily operations of the guild, but Nineteen Continents Guild and Zhao Yu had to cooperate with Penguin's publicity plan, that is, to advertise well.
In addition, Zhao Yu will cooperate with Penguin to participate in the "Star-Making Project", and they will make Zhao Yu a game star.
This is actually a publicity plan.
They also demanded a veto power for many major events, and financial supervision power in peacetime.
This should be because he was afraid that Zhao Yu would mess around and cause the guild to collapse.
The contract is not complicated, everything is written very easily, and there is nothing Zhao Yu can't understand.
This contract can be said to be quite sincere, and it is definitely impossible to want money without paying any price.
After seeing Zhao Yu handing over the contract to Jiaojiao and others beside him, Bai Li asked:
"Is there anything unclear about the terms in the contract, Mr. Zhao? If you have any objections, Mr. Zhao can raise them."
Zhao Yu looked at Bai Li and shook his head, saying:
"The contract is very clear, and there is nothing I don't understand, but there are a few points that I may not be able to do."
Bai Li frowned slightly and said, "Can you be more specific?"
"First of all, it is impossible to acquire 40% of the shares. Although it is really sincere to acquire 40% of the shares for more than 400 million yuan, I may not be able to make the club achieve this level."
"But as a person, I don't want to lose control of my guild. I have already given Jiaojiao 10% of the shares, and I plan to give 20% to the guild members who work hard with me."
"And the shares in my hands must not be lower than 50%, so I can only sell 20%, which is not negotiable."
Hearing what Bai Li wanted to say here, but was interrupted by Zhao Yu raising his hand, he continued:
"Mr. Bai, please listen to me. The guild's cooperation with the publicity is completely fine, but I can't participate in your star-making plan."
"One is that I really don't know how to deal with this aspect, and the other is that I have already eaten Devil Fruits, so I can no longer use your Devil Fruits."
If he can't cope, it means Zhao Yu is talking nonsense, he is just plain lazy.
It's okay to pretend to be aggressive once in a while, but he definitely won't do it when he's a star.
Although he wanted to burn the fruit very much, but he already had the celestial fruit of clone fruit.
If he didn't have this sky-defying fruit, he would definitely not let the Shao Shao fruit go.
