"You provide intelligence. I provide strength."
Qin Xiao finally laid out the terms of the alliance.
"Intelligence?" Magneto narrowed his eyes.
"That's right," Qin Xiao nodded.
"Mystique can infiltrate almost anywhere. She must have access to a vast amount of information."
"That's exactly what I need."
"In exchange, I'll provide you with Devil Fruits—to enhance the strength of your mutants."
"A mutually beneficial deal."
Magneto didn't reject it outright.
But he wasn't soone who would agree blindly either.
"What kind of intelligence do you want?"
"I won't provide everything without limits."
"You'll need to define the scope."
So intelligence was simply too valuable to hand over freely.
Qin Xiao had already thought this through.
"Anything related to:
Devil Fruit usersThe Devil's EnvoyThe 'Eastern Devil' rumors
"All of it."
"Your investigations, your progress, your counterasures—"
"As long as it relates to these topics, I want to know."
In truth, Qin Xiao wanted far more.
But he knew his limits.
Right now, he didn't have enough manpower to make use of excessive information.
And more importantly—
his real goal was to distribute Devil Fruits.
With justification.
Only by giving them out could he harvest power in return.
Just four fruits had already elevated him above most people.
If that number kept growing—
and those users continued developing their abilities—
his own strength would skyrocket.
If he demanded too much and Magneto refused—
he'd lose everything.
Magneto exhaled slowly.
That condition—
was reasonable.
"I agree."
"But I need proof."
"What kind of Devil Fruits can you actually provide?"
"Words alone aren't enough."
Qin Xiao smiled slightly.
He turned his gaze toward Sabretooth.
"I can offer one fruit in advance."
"Let Victor be the test subject."
"If I give it directly to you, you might doubt it."
"But Sabretooth?"
"You trust him."
"With his regeneration, you won't have to worry about him dying from it."
He paused.
"But in exchange—"
"You'll owe so information afterward."
Magneto hadn't even figured out how to verify the claim—
and Qin Xiao had already arranged everything.
Using Sabretooth made perfect sense.
His healing factor made him the safest candidate.
"…Good."
"Victor. Co here."
Sabretooth had been listening the entire ti.
At Magneto's call, he casually dropped the unconscious Toad—
and stepped forward without hesitation.
Like Wolverine, his mind had been damaged in the past.
Logan had lost his mories.
Sabretooth—Victor Creed—had lost even more.
Now, he followed Magneto instinctively.
As he approached—
Qin Xiao heard the system's voice.
[Ding. Devil Fruit compatibility detected.]
[Compatible Fruits: Karma Fruit, Dark-Dark Fruit, Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Ton-Ton Fruit, Slice-Slice Fruit, lt-lt Fruit…]
Qin Xiao's eyes flickered.
Even though he had already seen this once—
it was still shocking.
Six fruits.
This was the first ti soone had matched so many.
Ancient One → 3 fruitsFrank → 2 fruitsSabretooth → 6 fruits
This—
was exactly why Qin Xiao had co to Magneto.
Mutants seed to have far greater compatibility with Devil Fruits than expected.
If this pattern held—
then through mutants, he could unlock a vast number of powerful abilities.
Including—
Dark-Dark Fruit.
Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
Top-tier, monstrous powers.
If I et more mutants…
How many powerful fruits can I unlock?
Ripples spread across Qin Xiao's body.
The system activated.
Devil Fruits began to materialize.
One after another—
they appeared in his hands.
Six in total.
Magneto's eyes widened slightly.
Sabretooth's gaze sharpened.
Even Frank was stunned.
"…Six fruits?"
