I have the Flame-Flame Fruit, I'm invincible!

During the Warring States period, everyone felt that the naval research department was in complete darkness.

Is Caesar up to the task? Can he lead the charge in naval research?

He can't do it; he doesn't have the ability.

Caesar: Sengoku, what do you mean? I'm a genius scientist!

"According to eyewitness accounts, the person who kidnapped Dr. Vegapunk was likely Dick, a Logia-type Devil Fruit user."

"It's him?"

Thank you to all my readers for subscribing and giving rewards.

96.

“Dr. Vegapunk, come out,” Dick called out.

No one answered.

"Dr. Vegapunk?"

"It's so noisy, leave me alone."

Dick quickly entered the small space.

Vegapunk was seen lying on the ground, carefully studying the alternate dimension, holding some kind of instrument.

His focused demeanor would put everyone to shame.

"Dr. Vegapunk, we've arrived."

"No rush, let me study it some more," Old Bei said with a fanatical look in his eyes and his tongue trembling.

Space is also a subject he has been researching.

If we could develop space teleportation, then all the major regions of the world could be connected, which would greatly promote global development.

Believe it or not, in the original work, Vegapunk actually did develop a spatial teleportation technique, although he often failed.

Dick: ...

He felt as if he had made a mistake.

A new opening has been created in the space.

With a thud, Vegapunk was thrown out of the space.

"No, no, I've just gotten a clue," Old Bei said anxiously.

"Give me three days, no, one day, and I'm sure I can produce results."

Dick was surprised.

Can you really produce results in just one day?

Is this the power of the world's strongest scientist?

"you sure?"

“Uh, well,” Vegapunk said awkwardly.

He really wanted to say yes, but being a perfectionist, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

"Okay, I just want to do more research in the alternate dimension," Old Bei said dejectedly.

So all those achievements were just Old Bei talking nonsense.

Dick suddenly realized, "That's right, no matter how strong Old Bei's research ability is, he still has to follow the basic law."

He's not Bald Qiang or Grey Wolf.

By the way, I remember that Old Bertrand always wanted to invent an inexhaustible energy source, so he went to do archaeology. However, all his inventions in his life were not as good as the technology from 900 years ago.

Old Berlusconi, you're no good.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk."

Vegapunk: ? ? ?

Why did he feel that the other person was thinking impolite things?

"Alright, Mr. Vegapunk, now that you are free, we can talk about your research."

"I hope you can help me research technology, all kinds of technology, weapons, and creations."

Old Bei took one last, reluctant look at the vanished alternate dimension before regaining his composure.

"Let me make this clear first: based on my research, I don't yet know who was righteous and who was evil in the wars recorded in the official history books, so I don't want to study any military technology right now," Old Bei said, sticking out his tongue.

He desires world peace, and his military technology research and development is for this purpose.

Whether they were Celestial Dragons or Joy Boy, they were all participants in the war.

Among the participants, who knows which side is on the side of justice?

On the contrary, the war between the two sides brought the world to the brink of destruction.

Dick: (ˉ▽ˉ；)

“Dick, Aokiji, and Dorag have all spoken of you to me, praising you highly,” Old Bertrand recalled Dick’s abilities.

Despite being a fire-type ability user, he has managed to develop spatial abilities.

This child's development of Devil Fruit abilities far surpasses what most people can imagine.

Vegapunk was secretly alarmed.

He was certain that the ancient Devil Fruit encyclopedia did not include Dick's Devil Fruit.

"So, I want to ask you, what exactly is your purpose in asking me to help you research military technology?"

"Defeat the Celestial Dragons! Defeat the World Government!"

Vegapunk frowned.

Isn't this accelerating the pace of world destruction?

Moreover, it was war.

"Objectively speaking, I admit that I am not a good person, and I cannot represent justice. However, compared to the Celestial Dragons, I am definitely just. And I am utterly just."

"I would even say that I am pure and innocent."

Old Bei: (⊙﹏⊙)

"Young people, whether something is just or not is never judged by what people say, but by what they do."

There was one more thing Old Berlusconi didn't say: what did you do to deserve this claim of justice?

"Because the Celestial Dragons are just so rotten. Compared to them, even crows are white."

Vegapunk remained silent.

"So, if you, Doctor, think the Celestial Dragons aren't righteous, why do you still provide the World Government with research into technology? Especially military technology."

“I’m doing research for the Navy. The Navy is different from the Celestial Dragons.” Old Bey replied without hesitation.

"Really? I remember the Celestial Dragons would massacre a country every three years. The Navy would be stationed outside the target country to prevent the people from escaping and ensure that the Celestial Dragons could kill everyone in the target country."

"Moreover, it happens every three years."

In an instant, Old Bei turned pale.

"No, it won't, right?"

"You can ask Aokiji."

Vegapunk immediately made a phone call to inquire, without wasting a moment.

On the other side, Aokiji, who was so busy he barely had time to breathe, was about to get angry when he heard Old Bei's question and immediately fell silent.

He said nothing, yet it seemed he said everything.

"Hey, Aokiji, tell me quickly, tell me the answer."

"Does your navy help the Celestial Dragons massacre a country every three years?"

"……it is true."

After saying that, Aokiji hung up the phone immediately.

After a moment of stunned silence, Vegapunk seemed to have aged more than ten years, overwhelmed by intense self-reproach.

"Dr. Vegapunk, do you still think there is good and evil on both sides in this war?"

Old Bei's expression was unpredictable.

"I don't know if Joy Boy is righteous, nor do I know if you belong to the righteous, but the Celestial Dragons are definitely evil, and they are not worthy of ruling the world."

“Okay, Dick, you’ve convinced me. I can help you research military technology.”

"But as you can see, I need funding, equipment, and experimental materials. If I lack any of these, my research efficiency will drop significantly."
