One Piece: Rayquaza of the Beasts Pirates

The three brothers, Ichi, Nichi, and Yuji, cursed in unison.

Although Sanji didn't hold back just now, their exoskeletons weren't for nothing, and the attack just now wasn't enough to completely knock them unconscious.

Just as the three were about to continue their attack, a series of unhurried footsteps sounded.

"Clap clap clap..."

Kane clapped lightly and smiled, "Sanji, congratulations on fully awakening your bloodline factor."

"Brother Kane!"

When Sanji saw Kane, his icy fighting stance instantly melted away, and he scratched the back of his head sheepishly.

Only then did Judge seem to wake up from his dream, his face filled with confusion and disbelief: "But, but this is impossible. Sanji shouldn't have the possibility of awakening his bloodline factor."

"Have you forgotten your raid suit?" Kane reminded him. "Sanji's progress has been faster every day since he put on the raid suit."

"I see."

Judge's brow relaxed; he hadn't expected the combat suit to have this function.

But soon he frowned and said, "But there's no reason why Sanji should be this strong."

He only gave out the battle suit a few days ago. Even though Sanji sleeps in the battle suit all day, he still awakens more than ten years later than his brothers.

There's no reason why they could overpower Ichi and the others just by waking up.

Kane smiled and said, "Perhaps Sanji is your greatest masterpiece."

"Emotions are the most beautiful thing about humankind. By eliminating Echi and the others' emotions, you have raised their lower limit, but you have also locked up their upper limit."

Even in past lives, there have been examples of humans breaking through the limits of the human body due to strong emotions.

emotion?

I believe in science, and you're talking to me about this?

Judge was full of questions, but a small seed was planted in his heart.

Sanji's sparring session with his brothers was just a minor incident; Kane quickly got down to business with Judge.

"I need ferocious beasts! The fiercer the better, and the more diverse the better. There's no point in studying ordinary animals."

That's what Judge said.

The stronger the bloodline factor used in artificial Devil Fruits, the stronger the user's abilities will be—this is a very simple principle.

Kane understood; he did know of a place teeming with ferocious beasts.

Ruskena Island, near Snake Island.

That is, the place where Luffy trained for two years, a place teeming with ferocious beasts.

Although it's a bit tough, according to Rayleigh, there are more than 500 beasts on that island that could defeat Luffy two years ago.

There's also Klaigana Island, where Hawkeye lives, and there's a bunch of gorillas who defeated Zoro two years ago.

However, that was a gorilla that had learned some Eagle Eye swordsmanship; it was still somewhat different from a pure beast.

Kane thought for a moment: "I'll help you collect information about the ferocious beasts. Right now, I can provide you with a powerful animal blood sample."

That's right, it's the mountain god we met today.

That's a wild boar that could withstand Oden's attack and survive.

After discussing the artificial Devil Fruits, Kane immediately headed to the east side of Onigashima.

That's where Quinn's laboratory is located.

He and Judge seemed to have a kind of unspoken understanding, like two kings who would never meet.

Chapter 81 The Den Den Mushi Business

Upon arriving at Quinn's lab, Kane found Quinn, who was becoming increasingly rounded.

He was cursing and swearing at a petri dish.

"What? You want me to research and modify Den Den Mushi?"

Quinn looked at Kane, who was shamelessly nodding in front of him, and he wished he could throw the virus sample he had just researched in his hand at Kane's face.

Lao Tzu was a world-renowned scientist, and the new world was terrified of the plague.

The virus that struck once could determine the lives of tens of thousands of people.

You want me to study this childish stuff now?

The agricultural machinery and pollution control agents I promised you to research last time have already ruined my reputation, you bastard!

Quinn sneered, "Why don't you go find that bastard Judge? He's the scientist you've been so eager to find!"

Mind your image, Quinn.

Kane looked at Quinn, who resembled Lin Daiyu, and almost burst out laughing.

The truth is, Judge is simply too busy.

Researching artificial Devil Fruits and improving combat suits has consumed all his time.

But with Quinn...

I definitely can't tell the truth.

Kane put on a "sincere" smile and reassured him, "Gage studies lineage factors, which is his specialty. But when it comes to bio-engineering technology, he's nowhere near as good as you, Mr. Quinn."

Quinn snorted, raised his chin high, and boasted, "Of course! My bio-modification technology is the best in the world!"

In this respect, he has absolute confidence, and even believes that he is no less capable than Vegapunk.

Kane thought for a moment, but decided not to interrupt Quinn's daydream.

It can be said that living in the same era as Vegapunk was both a dream and a nightmare for all scientists.

Because no matter what kind of research it is, Vegapunk can always get ahead of them with just a little effort.

The birth of the Seraph is the most powerful proof.

It was a perfect combination of lineage factors and biological modification.

During the creation of Seraphs, Vegapunk also simultaneously researched artificial life forms, including a series of highly complex projects such as feeding Devil Fruits to inanimate objects.

Back to topic.

Kane chuckled: "That's why I'm asking you to get involved."

"I refuse!"

Without a second thought, Quinn declared, "I'm going to research the latest generation of plague bombs. When my research results are complete, this entire ocean will tremble before me!"

He also hoped the Plague Bomb would make him famous worldwide and surpass Kane's bounty.

That's a bit of an exaggeration, Quinn.

Kane was speechless.

"Sigh~ I was hoping that you, Mr. Queen, would do a great service. But since that's the case, it seems that I can only let Judge show his face in front of Mr. Kaido again."

Kane sighed with feigned regret: "If this continues, I'm afraid the most outstanding scientist in Mr. Kaido's eyes will be Judge."

Having said that, he turned and left without hesitation, silently counting in his mind:

"One, two..."

"Stop right there!"

Before he could even count to three, Quinn yelled, "What do you mean, you little brat? Explain yourself!"

What's the big deal about his little conflict with Kane?

The real issue is that Judge, that bastard, is stealing the spotlight from Kaido!

I am the number one scientist in the Beasts Pirates!

Sure enough, the hatred between peers is the most blatant. Kane's face showed a knowing smile, which he quickly concealed. He turned around and said calmly, "I have found a stable and huge new source of income for the Beasts Pirates: selling Den Den Mushi."

Upon hearing this, Quinn breathed a sigh of relief; he had thought it was some major project.

"Do you know how rare wild Den Den Mushi are?"

"You can go now. Let Gaji do this kind of small job. He's better suited for this kind of odd job."

As is well known, Den Den Mushi can only be captured in the wild, and they are extremely rare, making artificial breeding impossible.

Kane chuckled: "Are you sure? That's five hundred different kinds of Den Den Mushi."

"Only five hundred... wait a minute."

Quinn's disdainful smile vanished instantly. "How many did you say? Five hundred? How many merchant ships did you plunder to get that many?"

Even the most ordinary Den Den Mushi (snail phone) can sell for 500,000 Berries.

Specialized black and white Den Den Mushi (snail telephones) can fetch millions of dollars and are extremely rare.

Quinn wasn't surprised by this small business deal; the main issue was that no one could gather so many Den Den Mushi for sale at once.

Merchants who sell Den Den Mushi usually only have a few dozen in stock.

Kane shook his index finger and smiled confidently, "They're artificially bred. This is just the first batch."

"Is that the breakthrough technique of Judge?"

Quinn couldn’t think of anyone else Kane could get this technology from besides him.

The thought of Judge showing off in front of Kaido made Queen furious.

"No, don't worry about the source of goods yet, just tell me if you can do it."

"If that doesn't work, I'll go to Judge. I don't think this kind of modification work is too difficult."

Kane lifted his foot as if to leave, but Quinn quickly put on a smiling face and stopped him.

"Brother, don't rush."

Quinn chuckled and put his arm around Kane's shoulder: "That Judge guy is nowhere near as knowledgeable as his brother."

"Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll make sure everything is arranged perfectly for you."
