Pirate: My Piltover technology is far ahead!

Chapter 30 The Cloner

After the God Valley incident, the World Government tried its best to cover it up. Although many remnants of Rocks's forces were still active at sea, they seemed to have reached a tacit understanding and did not mention the past too much.

Pirates continue to wreak havoc on the seas, and the legend of hero Garp circulates in the Navy. Only Rocks and God Valley have been forgotten by the world, and even old newspapers and bounty posters have been collected and destroyed.

On the sea, where information flows slowly, this approach is still quite effective.

However, Vegapunk is a user of the Brain-Brain Fruit, which grants him photographic memory. He recognized the other person's identity at a glance and explained the other person's identity to Oran.

"I know, he was originally a member of the Rocks Pirates."

"You actually know about Lox."

Vegapunk didn't mention Bakkin's original identity because it was meaningless, but Oran revealed it directly.

He thought that Oran, who lived in the South China Sea, was completely unaware of such things.

"Everyone has secrets, Punk. This little thing isn't important. I know more than you do. The key is what she's really up to."

"Gentlemen, I've been waiting for you for a long time. It's not very polite to keep a lady waiting outside like this."

Seeing that the main character had arrived, Bakkin also stood up. As MADS entered the Grand Line, Du Field also began to use his connections to promote the charity he funded, and Oran and Vegapunk also became somewhat famous.

Although it is not yet widespread, some people who are interested in this matter have already heard about it.

"You're the rude one who suddenly appeared on the ship. We've never crossed paths before. What exactly do you want?"

"Let me introduce myself first. I am Barkingom Stussy. I have a lot of interest in scientific research. I am here today to entrust a project to you all."

"But this isn't the place to talk. If it's convenient, let's go inside and discuss it."

Looking at the researchers on the deck, Bagin pointed to the cabin next to her, as if it held some secret.

Seeing that Bakin was so insistent, Vegapunk and Oran exchanged a glance and then agreed to her request. MADS had not been able to sail on the Grand Line for so long because of Du Field's influence.

The title of loan shark king in the underworld sounds impressive, but pirates are a group of lawless individuals. Top pirates, considering the transactions within their own territories, won't make things too difficult for Du Field, but it's a different story for ordinary pirates.

As long as the profit is enough, there's nothing they won't dare to rob.

MADS relies on its own technological weapons to navigate smoothly.

Compared to the open space of the deck, the cabins offer a better opportunity to utilize their technological achievements, especially since the technologies that Caesar and Quinn focus on can be put to great use in enclosed spaces.

"Both of you are quite famous scientists, so I won't beat around the bush. I heard about your recent experiment on Roslin Island, which resulted in a cloned sheep."

"Without a doubt, this is a huge scientific advancement, and I'm here today to ask you to help me clone a human."

Cloning experiments were a project that MADS had successfully completed and published in the newspapers during its past journeys. Bakkin originally had a similar idea, but she did not have the ability to put it into practice, so she approached Oran and others, hoping that they would complete the project.

"I also know a little about science. This is the sample I prepared, which is theoretically sufficient to complete the cloning."

Compared to the people at MADS, Bakin's research ability is undoubtedly insufficient. However, the average education level in the sea varies greatly. Compared to most people, Bakin's level is still sufficient. At least she has her own ideas and has made some preparations.

"Whose sample is this?"

Vegapunk was curious about what made Bakkin come here in the first place, as she took out the items from the specially made box.

"This is a lady's private secret; it contains the DNA of someone I deeply love. It's just a pity."

"Bakingom Stussy, former member of the Rocks Pirates, do you think we'd believe such nonsense? Tell me what your real purpose is, or there's no point in us talking."

Seeing that Bakkin was trying to deceive him, Vegapunk exposed her identity and activated the ship's defense system. He wasn't going to let his guard down against Bakkin so easily.

The current situation did not alarm Bakkin; since the other party had chosen to talk, there was still room for negotiation.

"Since you've come all this way, you must have made your decision. If we can't be open and honest, there's really no possibility of cooperation between us. Hiding things won't get you any benefits, Miss Bakin."

Oran spoke more gently to Baggin, suggesting that ignoring the weapon in his hand might be more effective.

"Alright, you should have heard of him. The owner of this DNA is Whitebeard - Edward Newgate. Since you know I used to be a member of that pirate crew, you should know that Whitebeard was also one of them."

And I am the woman he loves most, so there's absolutely no problem with this DNA."

After the Rocks Pirates disbanded, Bakkin and Whitebeard traveled together for a while, but later separated for various reasons.

The extremely money-grubbing Bakkin eventually clashed with Whitebeard, who valued family more and was uninterested in treasure.

However, Whitebeard was still able to stand on his own and become the new ruler of the seas without Rocks, but Bakkin did not have this ability. In the end, she came up with this idea: she wanted a new Whitebeard who would be completely obedient to her and whose strength was in no way inferior to Whitebeard's.

"Orlan, what do you think? Human cloning, this is a step we'll have to take sooner or later. Cloning a powerful pirate, that's quite a challenge."

"I have no objection, but how will I be paid? This will take a lot of effort and time, and I'm not going to work for free."

Barkin had hoped to save money by arguing that it was a rare new project, given her penny-pinching nature, but she ultimately failed.

Even if Oran weren't here, Vegapunk wouldn't have done his work for nothing. In fact, even with Du Field's support, money alone wouldn't have been enough to sway them.

"What exactly do you want?"

I want you.

"What?!"

Hearing Vegapunk's words, Bakkin was startled, then angrily retorted, "I'm Whitebeard's favorite woman! If you really do that, he'll definitely kill you!"

"What are you thinking? I want your blood. I find your personality interesting, so I'm just planning to use you as a sample to make another clone."

Hearing this, Bakkin breathed a sigh of relief. It was just some blood, not worth much, so this could be considered a freebie.

But Vegapunk immediately increased the intensity of her power again.

"Oran, I don't want anything else. Are you going to mention any more prices?"

"Don't worry, Miss Bakkin, I'm not interested in your money either. I only want two things: a powerful cultivation method and the DNA of your former companion, Charlotte Linlin."
