Pirate: I'm just slacking off, do you really think I'm a noob?

Now Vegapunk understood it all.

This world is not as simple as one imagines. The strength of some powerful people has long exceeded the limits of human imagination.

If we look at it from a rational point of view, there is indeed a possibility that a strong person can directly penetrate the soil and the outer shell of the base, but this possibility is much less than a strong person entering from the entrance of the base.

Maybe it was just bad luck for Vegapunk to run into an unreasonable guy like Garp.

Patting his brain that had just been stunned, Vegapunk decided to just sit here and wait to be transported back to the Grand Line.

Not long after, the sound of military boots stepping on the ground rang out in the silent environment.

Vegapunk sighed. The last time he heard the sound of navy boots in this base, he was captured.

From the darkness, the figures of Garp and Kuzan walked out.

Looking at the young Vegapunk sitting on the chair, Cap said seriously:

'Dr. Vegapunk, I'm sorry to hear that you are under arrest.'

Seeing this, Vegapunk could only pretend to be disappointed!

I never thought that a small character like me could allow the navy hero Vice Admiral Garp to personally take the stage.

I see that the Navy still values ​​me very much.

Looking at the spotless laboratory, there are neatly arranged instruments and experimental subjects around, as well as those scientists who are waiting obediently to accept their fate.

Looking at the top scientist in front of him who had also accepted his fate, Cap was filled with emotion.

"Actually, I didn't take it seriously before I came here. I just thought it was to protect Kuzan. After all, this is in the doldrums. But now I am more interested in you."

Your talent far exceeds that of any scientist in the world. If you continue to be left alone in the outside world, it is very likely to cause disadvantageous situations to the Navy. "

Once you have organized your data and personnel equipment, we will transfer you all to the Grand Route."

Vegapunk nodded, then told several researchers standing behind him to clean up.

Then he took out a remote control from his arms and ordered the mechanical creatures on the island that had not yet been destroyed by Garp to shut down.

Since the navy soldiers were isolated outside the doldrums, Cap had no way to escort these scientists and could only let them manage themselves.

Fortunately, after Vegapunk spoke a few words to them, they calmly accepted their fate and carried things happily.

"Mr. Karp, why do they seem so happy to be leaving here now?

Kuzan came over and said slyly,

Is there? Maybe they also think life in the doldrums is too boring.

Garp picked his nose and showed disdain for what Kuzan said.

He didn't care what these scientists wanted to do. His mission was to lead them back to the Grand Line.

If it weren't for this mission, Garp might be fighting Roger again now.

When Garp thought of Roger's happy journey in the New World, he felt very sad.

"Uh, okay Mr. Cap."

Although Kuzan felt that something was wrong, he felt that since Mr. Cap had said it was not important, there was nothing to worry about.

In the cabin, groups of scientists sat obediently in their seats, discussing in low voices!

Did you hear what the chief said? After we join the navy, we won't have to worry about funding anymore.

Yes, the leader said that we can continue to work on the topics that we didn’t study in depth due to funding constraints.”

That's great. The experiment of replicating devil fruits was abandoned from the beginning because it would waste too much money. Now we can finally start."

"Not only that, the leader said that the World Government is very rich now. I think we can also carry out the humanoid war weapon we are researching."

The discussion between the two scientists ignited the enthusiasm of the whole group, and all scientists engaged in a heated discussion.

After they heard that the world government did not limit research funding, everyone started thinking of slogans for their own projects in order to get more funding.

Vegapunk, who told everything, was now leaning against the railing, looking at the island where he had lived for several years.

Dr. Vegapunk, are you reluctant to leave here?"

The tall and thin Kuzan came over and said to Vegapunk from behind,

Of course I will be reluctant to leave, everything here was created after I founded the MADS organization. "

In order to avoid the glare of others and to concentrate on our own research, we built a boat that can sail in the doldrums and came here.

In order for the project to proceed smoothly, we researched weapons, sold them to the North Sea mafia, and used funds to exchange for resources to start research again. "

"I have put so much effort into this place, and I am reluctant to leave it all at once."

Vegapunk turned his head and looked at the young but extremely powerful rear admiral in front of him.

Kuzan clenched his hands tightly, then quickly relaxed and asked, "

"Dr. Vegapunk, I just sensed in the base that some of your laboratories use living people. Don't you think it's cruel?"

Upon hearing this, Vegapunk was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand something, smiled and said:

"So that's why you asked me this, Mr. Kuzan."

I can answer your question. Originally, there were two scientists in our organization who studied bacteria. They liked to use the public for testing, but later they were arrested, and no one arrested the public anymore. "

'The life factor we are researching has reached the final stage, and we must use living people, but these living people are pirates purchased by our organization. We have contacts with some underground forces, and the North Sea Mafia is happy to do this. "

After hearing Vegapunk's explanation, Kuzan felt a little better.

If we talk about pirates, then Kuzan has no sympathy at all.

Chapter 142: Agreement with Vegapon

2024-09-11 14:44:18 Author: Mu Chenxin

Standing on the ship developed by Vegapunk, Garp and Kuzan were both a little shocked.

They also had ships like this that did not require wind power for propulsion, but the main reason why they still did not dare to enter the doldrums was because of the sea kings.

But now, the Seastone steamship designed by Vegapunk can travel freely within the doldrums.

The seastone inlaid on its bottom can block the perception of the sea kings, thus achieving the purpose of passing through the Calm Belt. Vice Admiral Garp, with this technology, the navy can freely pass through the Calm Belt to connect the Grand Line and the Four Seas. "

Young Kuzan said excitedly. Garp looked at Vegapunk who was thinking in the back, and his heart was also very moved.

As an old sailor, he deeply understood how terrible it would be if the navy could freely mobilize troops through the doldrums.

As Kuzan said, if the navy on the Grand Line can be closely connected with the navies of the four seas, then the navy will grow into a true behemoth.

It can concentrate superior forces in any sea area to deal with some opposing forces.

Instead of being like it is now, the four seas and the great routes are separated and they cannot support each other if any problems arise.

Well, Dr. Vegapunk's value is clearer to us than the two of us, and I also believe that Dr. Vegapunk can bring more technology that will give the Navy an advantage. "

Garp patted Kuzan's shoulder, and the two of them remained silent.

In the unnamed waters of the North Sea, an enormous military ship was heading towards the Grand Route. On a sun lounger on the deck, a slender figure was lazily lying there, with his right hand resting behind his head and his left hand holding a Den Den Mushi while answering the call.

"Hmm, are you saying that the people sent by headquarters this time are Garp and Kuzan?"

The information and personnel of Vegapunk have been taken away by them, right? Good, good."

'Repair the base, seal it off and wait for us to move our stuff.

Bulu bulu.

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Raleigh patted his forehead and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The masters of the World Government never thought about why Vegapunk, which had not been discovered for so long, was suddenly exposed after the research was completed.

Without Vegapunk's tacit approval, the CPO organization, even with its fish-man blood, would probably be torn to pieces the moment it came ashore.

Vegapunk being taken away by the navy is not a bad thing at the moment.

Raleigh himself knew that although Vegapunk was a top scientist, science also required a lot of manpower, material resources and funds.

As it stands, Raleigh is unable to provide Vegapunk with the conditions he needs.

Even if there was, Raleigh's actions would be noticed by the World Government. But it would be different if Vegapunk entered the research institute of the Marine Headquarters. In the eyes of the Five Elders who were in power in the World Government and the admirals of the Marine Headquarters, Vegapunk became "one of their own."

Without their permission, Vegapunk can only live in the institute and cannot go out.

Vegapunk in this state is often regarded as non-threatening by those self-righteous people in power, who instead try their best to meet all the demands made on Vegapunk.

And this is what Raleigh and Vegapunk devised - the plan of stealing the day can also be understood as borrowing chickens to lay eggs.

With the help of the old hen of the World Government, the golden eggs belonging to Raleigh and Vegapunk will be laid.

All we need to do is give the World Government some weapons and technologies that are not particularly advanced. Anyway, what the World Government wants is not advancement, but stability."

In their view, a scientist who is left alone and can develop technology that is hundreds of years more advanced than that in the hands of the World Government is definitely more threatening than a pirate leader.

Even if a pirate leader controls the New World and has countless powerful followers, he is still not enough of a threat in the eyes of the World Government.

Just like the Rocks Pirates who unified the New World, the World Government did not use its own resources, but only relied on the help of the Navy Generals and a group of pirates to defeat the arrogant Rocks.

Although this also includes the betrayal of the captain under Rocks, it is unquestionable that there are overlords like Rocks in every era.

But once they are dealt with by the World Government or die, they will soon be erased from people's memory.

Go ahead, Dr. Vegapunk. I hope you can develop a pacifist in the Navy Headquarters laboratory soon."

The technology of Vegapunk is beyond reproach, and among them, Raleigh is most optimistic about the Pacifist.

These are mechanical creatures created by Vegapunk based on the abilities of bears. Although they have the disadvantages of being slow and having fixed moves for masters.

But such a robot is simply a magic weapon for dealing with pirates whose bounty is worth thousands of square meters.

You know, without super evolution, Luffy and his crew have no advantage over the pacifists.

However, although the Pacifist is very fun to use, it also has significant drawbacks.

money!

The development of this kind of thing is very expensive!

Even if Raleigh handed over the Pacifist's execution principles and general drawings to Vegapunk, it only solved one month's workload for Vegapunk.

However, Vegapunk also assured Raleigh that he would request the creation of a pacifist as soon as he entered the World Government, but it was not easy to find a bear now.

It might be a while before you get close enough to a bear.

In this regard, Vegapunk also has alternative candidates, including the navy hero Garp.

Vegapunk believes that Garp may have excellent talents in his genes, and his power of Armament Haki is very strong.

If a Garp-type pacifist is created, he may not have the skills of a bear, but he will have a stronger tendency in physical skills and domineering.

Right now the four seas are having trouble with users of natural devil fruits, so creating a pacifist with top-level armed color domineering is a very good choice. According to current calculations, only three pacifists are needed in each sea area within the four seas to cope with daily combat.

If it was the Age of Exploration triggered by Roger, Raleigh estimated that seven pacifists would be enough to deal with it. If more pacifists could be developed, Raleigh would pack up the rest and send them to Rogue Town to suppress anyone who tried to enter the Upside Down Mountain.

Raleigh trusts Vegapunk very much, he just needs enough funds to support his research.

Then everyone in the world will be shocked by Vegapunk's level. However, with Vegapunk's departure, Raleigh can be said to have reaped the treasure of the whale's fall.

Now his assistant has taken a big ship to the island where Vegapunk was taken away. The devices that were inconvenient to take away and the excessive information on the island have become the things that Raleigh picked up.

Sengoku, Garp, don't think I don't know that you two are plotting against me."

Raleigh pumped his fist at the air.

Because if this matter really needs to be dealt with, there is no need for Garp and Kuzan to make the trouble to come all the way from the headquarters. Raleigh can handle it completely.

The reason why Raleigh was not let to solve the problem but Garp and Kuzan were chosen was naturally to give Kuzan more credit.

After all, Raleigh is not a member of his own team. Through contact with Raleigh, Zhan Guo realized that this kid Raleigh did not belong to any camp. He wanted to open up a camp independently, and his attitude changed subtly.

As the saying goes, the best way to deal with a person who is gifted but uncertain is to push your own people forward.

There are three admiral positions available.

The people that Kong and Sengoku had planned to recruit were the ones who had already demonstrated great talent, namely Sakaski, Borsalino, Kuzan, and Raleigh.

Among these people, Sakaski and Borsalino need not be mentioned. As long as they don't die midway, it is a foregone conclusion that they will become generals. As for Kuzan and Raleigh, it is hard to say now.

Although Kuzan's talent and strength are slightly better than Raleigh's, everyone knows clearly what kind of attitude Raleigh has.

If Raleigh had worked a little harder, he might have replaced Kuzin as the general.
