Pirates of the Navy Thunder God

Chapter 665: Fighting poison with poison! (14)

When Ron arrived at the holy land, Old Vic, the loyal servant of Imu who had been waiting there for a long time, came up to him with a serious face and said quickly, "General Canglong, please come this way."

"I'm not yet... Never mind."

Ron wanted to correct his address, but then he thought now was not the time to dwell on it, so he nodded and quickly followed.

"Mr. Vick, what's going on?"

Walking in the secret passage under the Holy Land, Ron pretended to be confused and asked, "The Holy Land was attacked?"

"No, but it's worse than being attacked! In comparison, Fisher Tiger's break-in and riot in the Holy Land more than 20 years ago is nothing!"

Vic had received Im's signal and began to explain without hiding anything.

"The story begins with the execution of Jason a few months ago... I wonder if you still remember the chaos that happened in the Ark Restaurant at that time?"

"I remember, but the previous CP0 chief, Zero, didn't say anything at the time... Could it be related to that incident?"

"That's right!"

The two stopped in front of a metal door. Vic took out the key that he kept close to his chest, inserted it into the keyhole, and gave Ron an ugly smile.

"The lords of the Celestial Dragons have been poisoned, and it has been proven... that they are beyond help!"

Click...!
Along with the vibration, the metal door slowly rose, revealing the vast space behind it.

The familiar silver-white corridors and glass partitions made Ron feel as if he had returned to the underground space of the scientific corps of the Naval Headquarters, but compared to the headquarters, the area here was undoubtedly more than twice as large.

Standing in front of the gate and looking over, one can hardly see the end with the naked eye.

“Is that so?!!”

Ron pretended to be horrified, his pupils shrank. Then he woke up and asked, "Then why did the Five Elders ask me to come to the Holy Land..."

"Lieutenant General Canglong!"

The sound of the door opening quickly attracted the attention of the busy people in white coats inside. Caesar Courant turned around from the crowd and walked over with a happy face.

"You're finally here!"

"Quick, let me draw some blood. We don't have enough materials for the experiment."

(ω)!

As he spoke, Caesar's eyes lit up, and he pulled out a syringe from his smoky sleeve and was about to stab Ron's hand.

next second...

Bang! ! !
(￣ε(#￣)……

Looking at Caesar, who was hit in the face by a punch, smashed three glass partitions and embedded straight into the concrete stone wall, with his right foot twitching, Ron dispersed the armed color domineering wrapped around his hand and calmly adjusted the cuffs of his suit.

Vic's eyelids twitched rapidly and he covered his forehead speechlessly.

He asked people to draw blood without any explanation!

Not to mention Ron, he almost took action.

"So, what's going on?"

Ron asked as he calmly glanced around the huge laboratory under the horrified gaze of a group of white coats.

"Ahem, let me explain."

In the crowd, Vegapunk's iconic fluffy afro was revealed. When he took off the auxiliary prosthetic eye that he always wore on his left eye, Ron realized that he was not a one-eyed man.

"It is like this, Vice Admiral Canglong. The celestial dragons have been infected with a very unique virus. These viruses belong to special parasitic life forms. They will gradually assimilate human body fluids and complement the host..."

"…Finally, they will take over the host's brain and control it to become a bloodthirsty monster. Using bites and scratches, they will inject mature young into other organisms to reproduce."

"Well, I think I understand..."

After listening to the explanation, Ron nodded and asked with his chin held high.

"But I guess none of the existing solutions can eliminate this viral parasite, right?"

There were many things that Vegapunk said that even Ron himself didn't understand. For example, why did the Styx virus attack humans after it became ill? It turned out that it was just to spread and reproduce, which was the instinct of living things. This shows that they really did a very detailed study on the Styx virus.

"Yes."

Vegapunk smiled bitterly and nodded, saying, "We have tried all the existing methods, whether it is drug treatment or mechanical removal, but it doesn't work. We even used the power of the devil fruit, but the results are still not optimistic."

"So, you think you can find a cure from me?"

"Ahem... it's not a treatment, it's a replacement!"

At this time, Caesar's voice came from not far away. He stood up with a resentful look on his face. His bruised head made the grimacing makeup on his face even more creepy.

Ron subconsciously took a step back, unable to bear to watch.

Caesar walked back step by step, rubbing his dizzy head and explaining: "That virus cannot be removed at all due to its special nature. The longer it parasitizes, the more it will replace the host's body fluids, reaching the level of symbiosis with the host."

"So, by removing them, you are destroying human body fluids, which is equivalent to killing people!"

"Remember what I said when we fought the Beasts Pirates in the old G5, Vice Admiral Soryuu?"

Vegapunk was silent for a moment, then explained, "Your body is very special. It is just blood. As long as there is enough energy, it will replicate itself unlimitedly. It also has a very terrifying assimilation ability."

"So we decided to replace the viral fluid by cloning your tissue sample and implanting your tissue cells into their body."

I have to say that scientists always have such creative ideas... Since the Styx virus has the function of replacing human body fluids and cannot be eliminated, replace it with harmless substances with the same effect!

Fight fire with fire!

"From what you said, you want to clone me?"

Ron narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly remembered the secret laboratory that was erected in the center of the island after the establishment of the new G5, which even he had no right to visit.

Maybe... it's not "thinking", but already "doing" it.

Several years have passed since the two people talked on the "Ark" Maxim. Given Vegapunk's scientific research capabilities, it is easy to imagine how far he has come.

Not everyone can accept being cloned, especially humans, a primate species with a strong sense of self.

Noticing the murderous intent emanating from Ron, Caesar's face was full of anticipation.

That's it!

Kill him, Lieutenant General Canglong!

Clones are not uncommon in this world where black technology is rampant. Have you ever seen a modified human that uses Coke as fuel?
But that depends on who is being cloned.

Vegapunk can clone ordinary samples with impunity, but if the target is Ron, the famous Navy Blue Dragon, it is not so easy to explain.

You should know that the Navy even has regulations that privately making a life card for another person without his or her consent is a serious crime among serious crimes, which is no different from treason!

Serious offenders will be sentenced to death without hesitation!

Even life cards were strictly prohibited, not to mention cloning the original body...

"But this is the only way I can think of!"

Vegapunk was not surprised by Ron's murderous intention towards him.

As a scientist with no taboos, he was accustomed to the hatred of his experimental subjects.

However, no direct action was taken, which proves that there is still room for discussion on this matter.

"I can promise you, Vice Admiral Canglong, that all clones will be destroyed immediately! But please allow me to complete the experiment for the sake of the lives of the Celestial Dragons!"

Vic watched the scene nervously and swallowed. If Ron wanted to take action, he might not be able to stop him.

At this moment, Vic felt bitter.

At least send a few more people over!
It's really stressful for him alone!
