Pirate: I'm King Luffy!

Chapter 779 Biometals·Wabo Alloy
At the castle at the top of the mountain, Luffy saw many men wearing pink coats and gloves, and a Labang moving around inside.

"I asked Miss Kuleha to help us retrain the doctor. This Labang was captured to pull her cart. If we call her here, it's best to use the name Doriel..." Dalton introduced the purpose of the men in the castle.

"Miss Doriel, this Vice Admiral wants to buy some medical books..."

Dalton led them to Doriel's study, knocked on the door and opened it.

"What? Are you asking me for the secret to eternal youth?"

Doriel was sleeping in the rocking chair in the study, and she spoke subconsciously when she heard Dalton's words.

"No, no one wants to ask that...they want to buy medical books, and besides, they've met Chopper," Dalton said.

"Have you seen Chopper?"

Doriel thought with some nostalgia about her "silly son" who could talk.

"Where is he?" Doriel looked at Luffy.

Although he was a vice admiral, the elderly woman showed no fear at all, as if she was looking at an ordinary person.

"Right now, we should be operating in the Four Emperors' territory," Luffy replied.

"Really? They've already made it to the Four Emperors' territory. They're really fast. No wonder, after all, they're following that man... As for books, just pick them up from the library. They're all worthless anyway."

Robin nodded slightly, then turned and went to the library to purchase books and look for historical materials about the country.

The Magnetic Drum Kingdom is also a country with a long history, and there may be some historical echoes.

It was a rare opportunity to see Chopper's family, so Luffy took out two elixirs and placed them on Doriel's desk.

"This is the first generation of panacea we jointly developed. It's a special medicine that can help patients regenerate severed limbs."

"He is still researching these weird things. Medicine for regenerating severed limbs? It's just so-so..." Doriel looked at the round pills on the desk, picked them up and put them to her sharp nose to smell the scent.

"I saw some cannons in this castle that were in a state of disrepair. They looked a little different from the cannons outside."

Luffy's gaze swept over Kureha's books, and he unexpectedly saw a book called "One Piece". He couldn't help but reach out and take the book out.

"Those huge cannons were created by Valpo using his own abilities. The last person to fire them was his brother. Few people in this country probably remember that incident now."

As Kureha watched Luffy reach for One Piece, she couldn't help but let out a slightly sinister laugh. Combined with her somewhat aged face and long nose, she had a witch-like air about her.

"Are the Navy heroes also interested in the connected giant secret treasure? The World Government says that thing doesn't exist."

"After all, no one has been able to find it, and those who have found it haven't displayed any magical powers."

Elsewhere, Vivi was pulled aside by Dalton. "Your Highness, I heard that you have a good relationship with Vice Admiral Luffy. Could you please ask about the situation with Valpo for me? The country is currently rebuilding well, but I'm worried that Valpo will return and plunge the country into its previous rule..."

He could not defeat King Walpo. Even if he gathered the strength of the entire country, he could not fight against that terrifying mad king.

"That mad king abandoned his people and fled, and now wants to return here to continue his rule. We absolutely cannot allow this!"

Vivi was filled with righteous indignation. "I heard from Tashigi that the guy went to the Land of Fire to pick up his brother. Maybe he wants to come back to take revenge on that pirate."

This was like adding insult to injury for Dalton. He couldn't even defeat one Valpo, and now he had to face his eldest son who possessed the Fungus Fruit. His face suddenly fell.

"Don't worry, I will never let that guy succeed in his conspiracy!"

While reading the legend of One Piece, Luffy walked over to the cannon and tapped the surface of the cannon, producing a dull thud. Several small birds flew out of the cannon in a panic, chirping at Luffy as if they were cursing the human who had disturbed their rest.

"The material is indeed different from ordinary steel..."

Luffy ignored the bird and with a little force, left fingerprints on the surface of the cannon.

"The strength is average..."

He loosened his hand, but saw that the surface of the steel, the indentations left by his fingerprints, gradually recovered and finally became smooth.

As if it had not been damaged.

"With memory function?"

Luffy became interested, and he tore the muzzle of the gun with his hands and flew directly to the research institute in Olympus.

"Robin, please take care of the book purchase and recruitment matters."

During the flight, Luffy took out the Den Den Mushi and handed the matter directly to the two of them, while he himself couldn't wait to study things like the Swallow Alloy.

Doriel played with the panacea in her hand, sensing Luffy's distance. She looked through the window at the clouds in the sky, feeling emotional.

"I thought the D clan was almost dead, but I didn't expect there were still so many survivors in this era. The D clan that was wooed by the World Government..."

"Lunch is ready~"

Nokigo used local ingredients to make a mushroom soup and scallion cakes made by local villagers.

Then he called Nami and the others, "Nami~ dinner is ready, where did you fly to?"

"I'm back--"

Nami answered the phone and dived down from a high altitude, her feet spraying cyclones and leaving a string of crisp laughter in the sky.

“These shoes are amazing!”

"Weiwei is at the palace and won't be back for dinner. She said she wants to discuss plans for national governance with Dalton."

"This soup tastes so good!" Bai Xing said while holding the huge bowl.

"It's obviously a mushroom, but it tastes like meat. This thing is amazing!" said Mrs. Charlie, holding a mushroom on a fork.

"There are so many kinds of mushrooms here!" Nojigo talked about her experience here. Not only did she purchase a bunch of mushrooms, she also went to the wild to collect some manually.

"That's Uta. Why are you attracted to the sleepless mushroom again? Didn't I tell you that it's poisonous, extremely poisonous!"

Nojigo harshly criticized the guy who followed her to pick mushrooms.

"Hey, didn't I tell you? It's not good to talk about toxicity without mentioning the dosage. I think this thing can keep me awake! Just eat less and it'll be fine. I can use it as a substitute for chili meatballs!"

As Uta was being scolded by Nojigao, he held his head with both hands and spoke his thoughts.

"Besides, the sleepless mushroom is so cute, just like a little rabbit!"

After dinner, Luffy hurried into the laboratory to do research.

Uta was thinking about what song to sing for the islanders in the afternoon.

After staying on Magnetic Drum Island for a while, Vivi and Robin flew back in the afternoon, carrying a pile of books and sitting on Carew's back.

"Luffy, what did you find? You just went to the palace and you ran back." Vivi asked Luffy in confusion.

"The discovery of very interesting biometals can be called a revolution in the materials world."

Luffy's face was full of smiles.

In the original work, Valpo Alloy is the mysterious metal that allowed Valpo to make a comeback. This metal was made from his devil fruit. As a metal of the new era, craftsman Franky bought this metal and used it on his own General Franky, and successfully equipped it with a laser cannon.

This completes Vegapunk's Devil Fruit weapon concept from his youth. The Wapo alloy possesses biological power; it's a living metal that can carry energy runes and is far stronger than shellfish. Given sufficient energy, it can self-repair.

It is simply the perfect material for making battle suits and weapons.

Luffy's famous sword is also made of biometal, but because the sword is too precious, Luffy has never done any research on his own sword. Now he has finally found a substitute.

"This metal is made by Valpo, right? What should we do next?" Vivi asked curiously.

"Isn't he a pirate now? Of course we should capture him and hand him over to Vegapunk. Hasn't that guy always been struggling with materials science? This biometal should be able to perfectly meet his needs."

Luffy said.

"Issue a pirate wanted order, requiring the navy at each naval base to be on the lookout for Walpo's pirate ship."

Luffy ordered.

He exercised his authority as Vice Admiral for the first time.

Whoever you want to be a pirate must be a pirate!
"This ending... isn't bad, right?" Vivi thought about it and felt that this was not a bad ending for the Sakura Kingdom.

"Luffy, Luffy, we have formed an alliance with Mr. Dalton of the Sakura Kingdom. From now on, the Sakura Kingdom will also be one of our allies!"

Weiwei talked about her achievements here.

“…”Are you playing some alliance coloring game?

"Where are we going next?" Uta asked contentedly after singing a song here.

Luffy thought about it and realized that apart from the mission of hunting down Walpo, there was nothing else to do. "Let's go to Nine Snake Island. After all, time is a bit tight."

Uta and Nami were startled and said hurriedly, "It's okay, we still have a lot of time. We must make more preparations when we go there!"

Nami pulled out a large map and flipped through it to see which routes she could pass through before reaching Nine Snake Island.

We have to send Bellmère away first!

"Do you want to go to the Seven Water City to buy some water meat?" Nojigao asked while looking at the map.

"Oh, it's Gaya Island! We haven't been to Gaya Island yet!" Nami said while looking at the map.

She drew a large island terrain in the area between Alabasta and Drum Island, marking it as Ancient Gaya Island.

"That's right, go here and then go to Nine Snake Island! Perfect!"

By the way, send Bellemeier away~

Start special training for Luffy again!

You can go to Nine Snake Island with peace of mind.

Luffy looked at the route planned by Nami and felt that there was no big problem:

"Then let's go to the Seven Water City and buy some water meat. Madam Shirley, let me tell you, the water meat from the Seven Water City is super delicious! The taste and texture are incredibly fresh! They also have amazing sea salt there. Any food will be even better with a sprinkle of sea salt!"

Mrs. Shirley couldn't help but grunt a few times at what he said, and Shirahoshi chuckled beside her. Mrs. Shirley really loved eating.

"Is it really that delicious?" Bellmère also became greedy after hearing what Luffy said.

Seeing that Belle-mère was interested, Nami modified the itinerary and decided to take Belle-mère to eat Shui Shui meat first and then send her away.

That guy Franky... Luffy thought about it and decided that from the perspective of his camp, his favorability should start at a negative level.

I don't know if I can meet Franky there.

Let it go.

The spaceship set sail again, and Luffy returned to the laboratory to start writing his experimental report:

Once forged, biometal possesses memory capabilities. Currently, all famous swords contain biometal components, so they have the ability to change with the height of their owner.

At the same time, it possesses the attributes of a shell, has its own characteristics, and releases elemental power through energy conversion.

Can release ice and even lightning.

In addition, biometal should have the same growth potential as a famous sword, and can become stronger along with its owner, turning into a product similar to a "black sword".

Eight hundred years ago, this biometal was widely used, but now it's a lost technology, only mastered by closed kingdoms with ancient heritage, such as Wano...

After getting the biometal, I can try to make a battle suit to give to Uta and the others.

The Saint Seiya armor imitation plan has started!
Luffy looked at the biometal report and the more he read, the more he felt that it would be a shame not to use this thing to make a holy garment.

……

"Hey, navy, are you sick? Look carefully, I am the king! King Walpo!"

"Did you know I've been to the Holy Land of Marijoa? Your navy escorted me there!"

On the sea.

King Walpo was not in a good mood. He was intercepted by a navy ship.

What a shame.

"It's true that you look a lot like King Walpole, and there's indeed a country called the Drum Kingdom, but what's with the pirate flag..."

The intercepting navy cautiously asked the overweight king who was like a wall in front of him.

"I was driven out by pirates, you know? And then I forgot to bring my permanent pointer. It took me several months to finally reach the Land of Fire and find my brother. I'm going back for revenge!"

"As for becoming a pirate, that's unavoidable. You should also know how dangerous it is to be at sea without a compass, right?"

"If you're smart, escort me back to my country!"

"Calm down, brother. You should call me brother Wang."

The man with pink shoulder-length hair pulled the bow tie on his chest.

"Okay, my Lord, seriously, these idiot marines weren't any help in dealing with Blackbeard, and they even let that guy become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. What the hell are they doing!"

"Damn it! I'm going to have to talk about this kind of thing at the next World Conference," Valpo said dissatisfiedly.

"Marine, what are you still standing there for?!"

Valpo shouted to the marines again.

"Okay, I'll let you go right away..." The naval captain in front of Valpo was sweating profusely.

I thought they caught a pirate, but I didn't expect it to be a member of the royal family, the kind that can hold meetings.

Just as he was about to let them go, his adjutant hurried over with a naval telegram and stuffed it into his hand.
