After listening to Peter's explanation, Zoro suddenly understood.
He immediately realized that it might not be an accident at all when Alice's mother unexpectedly entered the breeding period.
All this may have something to do with the blue fruit that Pete fed.
"This is? Blue-skinned persimmon?"
Zoro took a closer look and was surprised by the appearance of this blue fruit.
He reached out and gently picked one of the round fruits hanging on the branch, then turned to Pete behind him and asked:
"Can this fruit be eaten?"
Peter naturally knew what Sauron meant: "Sir, this fruit is not poisonous. You can eat it, but it doesn't taste very good."
"Is it?"
"Yes!"
"That's really a pity." Zoro said with regret.
Since Peter said it didn't taste very good, he naturally wouldn't risk his life and try one.
After all, the saying "Listen to others and eat enough" sometimes works quite well.
"It's a pity that this one looks so similar to a persimmon, but it turns out it can't be eaten."
"Hey, my persimmon! It's gone!"
Sauron muttered to himself and said regretfully:
"Pete, do you have a name for this fruit?"
"My lord, not really!" Peter replied truthfully.
"Then you don't mind if I give these little guys a name!" Zoro had a name in mind that was very suitable for this kind of fruit.
"This is their glory, Lord Sauron!"
"In that case, let's call them blue persimmons from now on!"
"Persimmon with blue skin - blue persimmon!"
"Huh~ What a fitting name!"
"Don't you think so? Pete?"
Zoro was very satisfied with the name he got.
It's just that he forgot that Peter didn't even know what the persimmon in his mouth was.
"Lord Sauron, your will is my thought!"
"But sir, what exactly is this persimmon?"
Peter first slapped Sauron's rainbow fart.
However, out of curiosity in his heart, he couldn't help but ask Sauron.
To the studious children, Sauron would naturally not hesitate to show off his "extensive" knowledge.
"You said persimmon!
It's a fruit that looks similar to blue persimmon.
But the skin and flesh of persimmons are red, while the blue persimmons are blue."
As if worried that Peter would not be able to understand the meaning of the fruit, Sauron explained:
"The fruit is a fruit similar to the Apfel fruit."
Apfel fruit is a relatively common fruit in the other world, and it grows widely in the seven provinces of the empire.
Depending on the regional climate, it usually matures from July to October. It is a cheap, sweet and juicy fruit.
There are often vendors who resell this fruit based on the time difference.
There are many Apfel fruit trees growing in the mountains and forests on the edge of Sauron's territory.
It's just that the apfel fruits in the east are now past their maturity stage.
"My lord, have you ever eaten persimmons?" Peter couldn't help but yearn for the persimmons in Zoro's mouth.
He has loved raising small animals and playing with flowers, plants and trees since he was a child.
Otherwise, Sauron's castle back garden wouldn't be kept in order by him.
"It must be a must-eat! As for the taste? It's sweet!" Zoro said with some nostalgia.
Obviously I have only been away from Blue Star for about a month, but I miss the things on Blue Star very much.
Just when Sauron was looking up and down at these blue persimmon trees.
His eyes were attracted by the position of the blue persimmon tree near its roots, and he asked with interest:
"This is? Grafting?"
"Pete, if I read correctly, these roots should not be the roots of the blue persimmon itself!"
This time Peter was really surprised by Sauron.
Although he did not understand the meaning of "grafting" in Sauron's mouth
But his intuition told Peter that the grafting Sauron was referring to was his technique of successfully transplanting blue persimmons.
He originally thought that he was the only one who knew the unique skills, but he didn't expect that Zoro would see the problem at a glance.
This made Peter marvel at Sauron's vast knowledge and at the same time feel a little lost.
Peter had no idea that the technology he was so proud of turned out to be known to the lord.
Fortunately, he carefully concealed this technique as a secret.
However, Peter still asked unwillingly: "Sir, what grafting are you talking about?"
"Grafting!"
"It should be to transplant some plant branches and buds that are difficult to transplant to the roots of other plants, so that the two can be combined and the former can grow smoothly."
Zoro also said with some uncertainty.
In fact, he only knew the name himself, but Zoro really didn't know anything about what actually needed to be paid attention to.
I just felt that there was some disharmony between the roots and the trunk of the fruit tree, so this word naturally popped into my mind.
But what shocked Zoro was the boy behind him who had no basic knowledge.
He was actually able to observe and summarize the characteristics of plants and break free from the constraints of what he saw.
It might be an accident if there is only one blue persimmon tree.
But it was obvious that the seven or eight blue persimmon trees in front of me, with varying degrees of growth, were all like this. It couldn't be an accident.
Zoro knew that if nothing unexpected happened, the boy named Peter would have unlimited future prospects.
Of course, the premise is that you can discover his talent.
Now I know about Pete's talent, and he discovered the secret of chocobo reproduction.
Sauron naturally cherishes this talented person who only works for him to earn a living.
As for the murder that disappeared in the stable just now?
He was thrown into an unknown toilet by Zoro a long time ago and flushed into the sewer.
"I'm not a murderer. Besides, Peter is also my serf. The more talented he is, the more beneficial it is to me.
If I kill him, wouldn't it be like cutting off my limbs? How could I do such a stupid thing?"
Zoro thought very clearly about the pros and cons.
His future goal is not only to dominate the multiverse, but at least to be able to live a healthy life in this dangerous world.
So this little problem is not a problem for him.
"Lord Sauron, your erudition is like the vast starry sky that makes me look up to you!"
Peter was completely convinced after hearing Sauron's explanation.
What Zoro said was very simple and easy to understand, and Peter easily understood the meaning.
As Zoro said, after discovering that chocobos like to eat blue persimmons,
Pete had to risk his life again and again to go deep into the forest to pick blue persimmons.
However, as time goes by, the fruit on the tree becomes less and less.
The fruit produced by just one blue persimmon tree cannot continue to satisfy the chocobo's greedy desire.
However, even though Peter searched this hillock, he could not find any other blue persimmon trees.
As for climbing over the edge of the hill and entering deeper into the forest, Peter simply didn't dare to go in.
After picking all the blue persimmons on the tree, Peter wanted to further expand the number of fruit trees.
But later he discovered that the blue persimmons produced on the fruit trees alone could not germinate and grow.
This made Peter feel very unwilling.
He tried every means to expand the number of blue persimmon trees.
While constantly trying various unfashionable methods, Peter unexpectedly discovered the magic of grafting.
This seemingly gift from the Creator greatly boosted his confidence.
With great expectations, he began to use various trees to try the magic of grafting.
Pete discovered that not all grafts were successful.
After several years of constant failure, summarizing and trying again.
He found that grafting branches of the blue persimmon tree onto a tree with small green wild fruits had the highest survival rate.
And this kind of trees with small green wild fruits are everywhere on the hill where the blue persimmon fruit trees grow.
This undoubtedly made Peter overjoyed. In just a few years, he had the results before Sauron's eyes.
At the same time, grafting technology also opened up Peter's horizons and opened a magical door for him.
