Pirates of the Navy Thunder God

Chapter 679 The Secret Order of the Five Elders! (13)

The sky is clear and the waves are cloudless.

The azure sea and sky complement each other, and time seems to have stopped here. What appears before the world is a flawless blue mirror, revealing fragility in perfection.

It seems that just a little movement will cause the mirror to shatter, making people unable to resist destroying it.

Wow!
The sails vibrated, and a huge warship rode the wind and waves, tearing through the tranquil sea and cutting out a "V"-shaped white wave.

A gentle breeze blew, and the calm sea water like a lake rippled in circles, and the sea surface reflected phosphorescence.

After a while, the wind gradually grew stronger, the clear sky quickly became dark and gloomy, thunder rumbled in the sky, and a storm gathered.

"Tsk, what a horrible weather in the New World!"

Ron, who was basking in the sun on the deck, pursed his lips when he saw this, stood up, waved his hand, held up the teacup with a magnetic field, and walked into the room.

While walking and shouting.

"Get moving, little ones! The Serpent Storm is coming, and it's time to test you!"

"Oh!!"

The soldiers ran quickly, some were reefing the sails, some were tying up supplies, and they cooperated with each other very well.

Ron could just fly up and disperse the dark clouds. With his level of strength, it was the sea that adapted to him, not him adapting to the sea.

But that would defeat the purpose of sailing, and would also make the soldiers content with enjoying themselves, which would not be helpful in preserving their combat effectiveness... Of course, the most important thing was that Ron was not in a hurry.

Carrying a cup of tea to the command room, Ron called the navigator and asked, "How far is it to the destination?"

"Report to the General, at the current speed, it will take at least three days, and at most five days!"

"3 to 5 days... No big deal, just continue."

Signaling to the navigator not to be nervous, Ron gave a few words of encouragement, then staggered out of the command room, holding the teacup.

BLU BRU BLU…

Bang!

"Hello? Oh, it's the Five Elders. What can I do for you?"

Not long after returning to the lounge, the Den Den Mushi suddenly rang. Ron picked up the receiver with a smile on his face.

Here it comes, the fish is hooked!

"I heard that you found the clue to pure gold. Is that true?"

The bearded Five Elders' tone sounded a little nervous, and one can imagine what his expression was at that moment.

"Uh, well..."

Ron rolled his eyes and replied, "I guess CP0 has already reported the situation, right? To be honest, I'm not sure. After all, it's more of a rumor than a clue. It's hard to tell whether it's true or not."

"I see, but this is also true..."

The bearded Five Elders sighed and said, "What I am about to tell you must be kept secret. Do you understand?!"

"Speaking!"

Ron waited solemnly and nodded.

After a moment's silence, the bearded Five Elders continued.

"The true value of pure gold is far beyond what people speculate. It is a magical substance that can infinitely slow down the growth and development of all things. Since ancient times, countless people have been pursuing this treasure, because simply put, possessing it can make people immortal! !"

"Immortality?!"

Ron pretended to be shocked and asked in disbelief, "Is this true?"

"Don't doubt it, this is all true!"

"According to top-secret records, there really was a person in history who lived for 500 years because of pure gold, but..."

"In the end, it disappeared without a trace and no one knew what happened."

The bearded Five Elders seemed to understand Ron's surprise and explained, "That's why the legend says it's worth buying the world!"

"You know what the average person would pay for immortality, don't you?"

"Indeed, that makes sense."

Ron nodded: "So...what do you gentlemen mean?"

"Vegapunk's experiment is progressing slowly, and it is not in our interest to place all our hopes on him."

The Five Elders did not answer directly, but suddenly started talking about the Celestial Dragons.

Ron understood. Ordinary people all know that they should not put all their eggs in one basket. As the government controllers, how could they be an exception?

The meaning of the Five Elders is very clear. As long as they find pure gold, they can use their unique abilities to slow down the reproduction and replication of the Styx virus along with the Celestial Dragons infinitely, pausing time for them and thus achieving the goal of resolving the threat of the virus.

Even if Vegapunk's experiment fails in the end, the Celestial Dragon group will not be extinct and a world war will not be triggered!

"So Ron, your mission is vital!"

"We grant you the highest authority and highest priority. You must do everything you can to find it. Do you understand?!"

If Ron was still the "Immortal Vice Admiral", the Five Elders would never tell him this and give him the task.

But he is now the "General" Canglong, and while the Five Elders recognize his strength, they do not have much choice.

"Yes! Promise to complete the mission!"

Ron saluted solemnly, then the Den Den Mushi made a "poi" sound and was hung up, and he fell into a deep sleep.

Looking at the Den Den Mushi that had quieted down, Ron silently took out his cigar, lit it and took a deep puff.

call……

"So, where were we just now? How is your experiment going?"

"I'm so sorry, General Canglong! None of the 300 test subjects survived."

On the coffee table in the room, another Den Den Mushi wearing a spotted hat on his head answered in a steady voice: "Perhaps the nutrients we provided were not enough. After being devoured by the cloned tissue, they quickly fell into a state of autophagy and finally turned into a pool of pus."

"Sure enough...what about the Styx virus? Are you sure there is no residue left?"

"Initially, some of them were retained by the surface, but as autophagy occurred, they were quickly devoured and completely decomposed."

"Understood……"

Ron nodded silently and continued, "Continue the experiment. This time, take fewer samples and concentrate the nutrient supply... But you must remember, don't clone the complete body before you are sure that the cloned sample is under control."

"Vegapunk crossed the river by feeling the stones, and we crossed the river by feeling Vegapunk, that's enough!"

"Do you understand? Luo!"

In the underground laboratory of the terrifying three-masted sailing ship in the Devil's Triangle.

Trafalgar Law stood in a room with strange bloodshot on the walls and nodded: "Understood!"

Looking at the completely exploded glass cabin not far away, Luo felt bitter.

Even if you ask me to clone the complete version now, I wouldn't dare!

These things have an extremely terrifying devouring ability just by relying on a few muscle tissue cells. If a complete sample is cloned and it cannot be controlled, it will go berserk...

Thinking about the consequences, Luo couldn't help but shiver and got goose bumps all over his body.

I really don't know where Vegapunk got the courage to research this?
I am indeed not a qualified scientific research talent!
After hanging up the phone, Ron sat on the sofa and slowly sorted out the things he had left behind.

"With the experiment at this stage, if nothing unexpected happens, the Celestial Dragons will end up like this. I just hope that Vegapunk's cloning experiment can be successful, so that I can have a terrifying army!"

Even though he was warned and swore to destroy the samples, Ron could guarantee that Vegapunk would never give up on his research so easily.

This is his thirst for knowledge as a scientist!
Without this belief, he would not have reached the heights he has today.

"However, when the truth that pure gold is ineffective is exposed, I will be suspected by the Five Elders immediately, so the balance between the two must be found... I have to find something to ensure that I am invincible!"

"correct!"

Suddenly, Ron thought of something.

"Let me think about it...Tezoro and Law both have things to do, so I decided it's you, Fujitora-san!"

"Ah Qiu!"

Located in the middle of the third and fourth channels of the Grand Route, formerly Gat Island, now Century City.

Sitting in his room eating cold noodles, Fujitora suddenly sneezed violently and felt a chill all over his body for no apparent reason.

"Hostile!"

Grasping the staff sword, Fujitora carefully used his observation Haki to observe the surroundings. After a moment, he put his hand down awkwardly and scratched his head.

"Well, it turns out to be a bird."

Shaking his head, he fumbled to pick up the bowl of noodles and continued slurping.

"Huh? Why does it taste weird?"

The weather is so good today, with drizzling rain and cool breeze. I just want to lie on the bed and don’t want to move. Ah... I definitely want to skip work.
