Chapter 365: *Hidden* Part 2 (1/2)

“Ayaya,” Tengteng called out and wrapped a fruit on the ground with a rattan vine and handed it to Su Jing. It turned out that three or four fruits had fallen to the ground from the man-eating vine and seemed to have matured overnight, but they still looked green.

“Do you mean, this man-eating vine is made of fruit?” Su Jing asked with surprise.

“Ayaya.” Tengteng nodded.

“How is this possible, it has only been one night.” Su Jing couldn’t believe it. Tengteng can still only speak in ‘Ayaya’ sound. He couldn’t say a complete sentence at all. Su Jing had to ask A’San, “A’San, You were here last night. Did you see this man-eating vine sprout and grow up, when were you caught? “

“I wasn’t here last night. I came up here this morning. There was no man-eating vine then. I don’t know what happen but it popped out of nowhere and then tied me up as if to eat me.” A ‘San said this while feeling wronged.

“Suddenly popped out?” Su Jing froze, and a ray of light suddenly shot in his eyes. Why did he forget that this man-eating vine came from the One Piece World, how did he forget the various seed attacks Usopp used from the seeds he got from the island he was stranded on for two and a half year. The seeds he used would fly out and turned into a man-eating tree, binding the enemy.

“Is this fruit …” Su Jing suddenly turned his eyes, he suddenly threw the green fruit in his hand and the fruit hit the distant ground. Then, with a “Bang”, the fruit burst open and a man-eating vine popped up quickly. It is two or three meters tall like the one next to Tengteng.

“This is really amazing, Hahaha!” Su Jing was pleasantly surprised and he laughed. This fruit is undoubtedly a powerful offensive force. Imagine throwing it directly to bind the enemy. Even if you can’t trap the enemy, it will at least hinder them and you would be able to come up with something to deal with the enemies.

“Wait, this is not right. Compared with the small seed that developed into Tengteng, this fruit is too small, the fruit is not yet large. Besides, if the man-eating vine can come out directly from a single fruit, then why did Tengteng sprout and grow up little by little? ” Su Jing was puzzled as he thought of this. He picked up the three fruits on the ground and studied them carefully.

In the end, he was surprised to find that these fruits had no seeds within them.  Fruits not having seeds is not unusual in modern times, because there are many artificially created varieties of fruits in the market now that doesn’t have seeds within them. Theoretically, the absence of seeds means that the fruit can’t produce any offspring but why does a man-eating vine have no seeds in their fruits, and why did Tengteng sprout out from a small seed when a man-eating vine can instantly sprout out from a fruit.

Su Jing couldn’t figure it out and transplant the newly transformed man-eating vine towards Tengteng, he will let Tengteng manage them. He found that the other two man-eating vines had very small roots and they barely stood up.
