"A condition? You captured and now you're talking about conditions?"
Wolverine clearly didn't trust Qin Xiao.
From his perspective, it was simple—you kidnap , and now you want a deal?
"Captured you? You're just an extra.
Eric's target isn't you, so don't overestimate your importance.
If you hadn't interfered and stopped Sabretooth from capturing Rogue,
do you think he would've brought you here?"
Qin Xiao shot back rcilessly.
"You—!"
That completely shut Wolverine down.
Rogue was just soone he had recently t.
They had only traveled together for a short ti.
He didn't even know why she was being hunted.
And yet—he had beco an extra.
"Enough. Don't bring that brooding attitude here.
I already said—I can help you recover your past.
But if you're not interested, this tal prison works just fine as your new ho.
Eric would be happy to keep you here—after all, you're both mutants."
With that, Qin Xiao stood up.
The compatibility ranking for Wolverine had changed.
The top-ranked Chop-Chop Fruit didn't interest Qin Xiao much.
A fruit that turned the body into blades wasn't particularly powerful.
But he also didn't want to go directly against the system's recomndation
by pushing the Tremor-Tremor Fruit onto Wolverine.
Caught between options, he stopped caring whether Wolverine cooperated.
Originally, he had been excited—Wolverine had once been a perfect match for the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
But now, because of Magneto,
it had dropped down the rankings.
Frustrating.
"What… do you want to agree to?"
Wolverine sensed the shift in Qin Xiao's attitude.
He understood—if he refused now,
he might be locked here indefinitely.
Magneto's control over him was simply too absolute.
"The condition?
I've already ended my contract with Frank, so he'll be handling his own affairs.
That leaves short of a subordinate—a Devil Fruit user to act as my envoy.
During the ti Frank is gone,
you'll take his place.
And during that ti,
you'll follow my arrangents."
Qin Xiao stated his terms.
In truth, it was just an excuse—to keep Wolverine by his side.
Or rather,
to create a reason for a transaction.
To get him to eat a Devil Fruit.
This was manipulation at its finest.
Clearly, Qin Xiao was the one who wanted to give away the fruit—yet he frad it as if Wolverine were the one benefiting.
And it reinforced the essence of a "devil"—everything was a deal.
"You want to obey you completely? Even kill?"
Wolverine questioned him.
Qin Xiao chuckled.
"Logan, do you really think you're so kind of innocent good man?
These claws of yours—they've been stained with more blood than you can imagine.
In over a hundred years,
how many people have you killed?
Probably more than you'd like to know."
"You know I've lived over a hundred years?"
Now Wolverine was truly shaken.
For over a decade, he had no mories.
No past.
The only clue he had was a na tag.
Yet this man—seed to know everything.
"I'm the Devil's envoy.
Of course I know things others don't.
Now—make your choice."
Qin Xiao had no interest in wasting more ti.
Yes or no.
That was it.
"You want to be your envoy…
but I'm not even a Devil Fruit user."
Wolverine gave ground.
Not a refusal—but a condition.
"Devil Fruits are easy enough."
Ripples spread across Qin Xiao's body.
Then—seven fruits appeared before everyone.
"Seven?!"
"Seven?!"
Frank and Sabretooth both exclaid in shock.
Sabretooth had matched with six fruits—which already seed extraordinary.
But Wolverine—had seven!
That ant his compatibility was even higher.
"These are the seven Devil Fruits compatible with you:
Chop-Chop Fruit, Heat-Heat Fruit, Boil-Boil Fruit, lt-lt Fruit, Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Ton-Ton Fruit, Dark-Dark Fruit…"
Qin Xiao briefly introduced each one.
Wolverine glanced at the fruits—then at his own body, bound by tal.
A thought flashed through his mind.
"Can any of these…"
"…free from Magneto's control?"
