Ignite the fire from the pirates

Garp replied: "Understood, the Navy will handle the follow-up communication."

……

One day later, at the Revolutionary Army Headquarters.

At this time, Redfield had been deprived of his fruit ability, and the same was true for the little raccoon cat Padon.

After the public trial, this result was not surprising.

Even that raccoon cat has no immunity under the law just because of its cute appearance.

The ability of the fruit in the form of a raccoon can play a big role in the hands of a strong person, and there are only a handful of people in the Revolutionary Army who have the ability to defeat their opponents with the domineering Haki.

In this situation, if one's values follow one's senses, the seeds of hatred that have already been sown will grow and may become a big problem in the future.

Moreover, the initial version of the law has just been established. Not to mention a little raccoon cat, even Chopper, who is still in the Drum Kingdom, will not escape sanctions.

Sky Island Headquarters Conference Room.

Kevin, who had been waiting for a long time, finally saw Vegapunk coming in, holding two devil fruits in his hands.

"Sir, the results are out."

Kevin looked at Vegapunk, waiting for his follow-up.

"The legend of vampires is also recorded in O'Hara's documents. It is precisely because of this legend-like story that the ability of this fruit was formed."

"And according to the characteristics of vampires and the research on bloodline factors, vampires can indeed stay young and not age."

"But... this immortality comes at a price."

Kevin exhaled, "Bloodsucking?"

Vegapunk nodded: "Only by sucking blood can we maintain the characteristics of eternal youth, and this characteristic is also mature."

"Sucking blood to gain the lifespan of an opponent is a kind of ability in itself. But blood acquisition does not cause the opponent to age permanently. Naturally, immortality will not be permanent either."

"This is also the reason why Redfield was still an old man in Dressrosa after obtaining this fruit. The blood of the five guards was stored by it for use in battle."

Kevin nodded and said, "I see. It was just an accident, don't take it too seriously. If this fruit could make people immortal, it wouldn't have been obtained by Redfield not long ago."

At this point, Kevin looked at the other devil fruit.

"BiGMOM in the Wan Guo Sea has disappeared, and the thirty-five islands in the Wan Guo Sea are also being taken over by us. One of them has a superhuman ability that needs attention..."

"BiGMOM's 35th daughter, currently only seven years old, was kept by Katakuri and his men because she had never participated in any operations. She is a user of the Parahuman Memory Fruit, able to read memories."

Vegapunk: "In this case... the Pacifist or this raccoon fruit ability can be replicated."

"So, sir, you want to use this ability to assist the navy in managing public security issues?"

Kevin shook his head slightly: "Dreams, freedom, and privacy are sometimes interconnected. If a person does not have the slightest privacy, then there is no dream or freedom, which goes against the will of the people."

"And a person's memory is not necessarily just his or her own privacy. There are too many things involved, and we cannot make policy changes arbitrarily."

Kevin stood up and said, "If we don't do it right from the beginning, it will lay hidden dangers for the future."

"The ability of the Memory Fruit needs to be restrained. It can be used in wartime, but it must never be used for public security management."

Upon hearing this, Vegapunk seemed to be thinking about something.

He originally thought that if he could peek into all memories, then law and order management would become extremely simple.

Even if we are concerned about people's selfish desires, pacifists can still do it to ensure fairness and justice.

But the so-called privacy was something he had not expected.

Kevin then continued: "For public security management involving incidents involving devil fruit abilities, you can apply to use memory display. But this needs to be strictly controlled. I will discuss this with Dragon later."

"Also, how is the preparation of the defense circle going? The energy of the Mother Fire is huge, but if there are not enough of them, it will not be able to protect all the islands."

Vegapunk: "We have operational tests and data reports, and the production of the Mother Fire is also continuing. It will be easy once we overcome the difficulties of the project."

The two continued their discussion on the application of technology, including the rock salt crystallization project for making island clouds, which Kevin paid particular attention to.

……

At the same time, the world recruitment is still going on, but the three new generals have already been decided.

Devil Barrett, Green Bull, Kevin.

The selection of the three generals was sent to the world through the World Economic News the next day.

But soon, someone among the pirates recognized Barrett's identity.

For a moment, everyone was filled with disbelief at his identity as the admiral of the navy, and even wondered whether the World Government was really empty.

A former crew member of the Pirate King's ship, and a notorious pirate in the past, has now transformed himself into a new admiral of the navy after escaping from the sixth underground floor of Impel Down Castle.

After this news was published in the newspaper, people found it even more outrageous.

And among the powers in Marijoa, the five met again to discuss the growing problem of the revolutionary army.

"Kaido went to the Wan Guo Sea alone, and then the cloaked man appeared."

"The result is that BiGMOM is missing, and the so-called liberated area of the Revolutionary Army has basically encompassed the entire New World."

"During the Nine Snake Island incident, it was clear that the Revolutionary Army had already networked that kind of protective shield. Using ancient weapons to destroy a country and set up a network is no longer feasible."

"So unless a decisive battle breaks out now, we can't effectively deter the revolutionary army?"

"Perhaps we can learn from the previous generation's...bait plan."

"It's impossible..."

Saint Vochuli raised his head slightly: "In fact, what was important that time was not the lives of 359 people. For the Revolutionary Army, the most important thing was the ideas they built in the hearts of those bugs."

"Since the Battle of Marineford, the ideas spread by the Revolutionary Army have convinced the bugs. Implementing the Bait Plan again will no longer be able to eradicate this idea."

At this point, Saint Vochuli looked at Saint Satan and asked, "In the North Sea, has the CP sent back any information?"

Satan Saint replied: "The people with the ability of the Operation Fruit have been active in the countries they have occupied. The doctors who survived in Frevans have been using their medical skills to deceive people."

Maz Saint: "Based on the O'Hara scholars, the Revolutionary Army knows a lot about what happened eight hundred years ago. That Trafalgar Law must have the mark of the cloaked man on him."

Peter Saint: "That means he can provide support at any time...so we must be sure before we can take action."

Vochuli-sei: "Have CP agents monitor continuously, and equip the action team with syringes for the Sleep-Sleep Fruit."

……

Among the powers that be, no one suggested taking direct action.

Because all the Five Elder Stars of the previous generation were killed, it means that the Cloaked Man has the power to kill all five of them completely.

The previous generation was replaced, and they don’t want to be replaced again in a short time like it happened eight hundred years ago.

……

North Sea, Kingdom of Jersey.

At this moment, Luo was fully armed and in a delivery room.

He stretched out his hand and activated his ability, and a halo enveloped the operating table.

The delicate manipulation made sweat break out on his forehead, and a minute later, a child was directly transferred out.

After leaving the operating room, the crying of the newborn made Luo smile, and it seemed that all his previous fatigue was swept away.

After dealing with a round of thanks, Luo already had three or four fruit baskets in his hands, which were filled with fruit as a thank you gift.

On the boat at the port, Luo, who had just returned, heard little Rami's call and smiled even more.

"Brother, brother!"

Little Rami waved from the deck.

Luo walked up with a fruit basket and ruffled his sister's hair: "Did you study hard today?"

Little Lamy nodded: "Yeah, the teacher said I'm very smart. But... I found that many of my friends in the class have a hard time learning."

Adrian on the side laughed and said, "The foundation is different now. The teachers can only teach from scratch now, and many children don't even know the characters yet."

After saying that, he looked at Luo's fruit basket and said, "Your name is now known all over the world... But this fruit basket is good, and I think it's thoughtful."

He picked up an apple and took a bite, and an envelope appeared in the fruit basket.

"Luo, you seem to be in trouble."

When Luo heard this, his heart tightened.

This is... a mistake.

"I'll give it back."

Having said that, Luo turned around, got off the boat, and headed straight for the hospital they had just been to.

At this time, several people in the dark were discussing whether to take action or not.

……

Chapter 296 Hidden dangers emerge, human greed is endless

Since the Battle of Marineford, the liberated areas radiating from the Upside Down Mountain have gradually extended their tentacles and begun to spread in all directions.

The policies in the liberated areas were also conveyed to the world through the New Times and radio signals.

The Kingdom of Zelsey in the North Sea was once so poor that its people could barely survive. In order to continue their extravagance, the nobles in the royal palace even wanted to eliminate all the so-called useless people in the country.

But the actions of foolish people are also foolish. No one can be spared when the plague is rampant, and their status is worthless.

It was when the entire country was facing death that the arrival of the revolutionary army became their salvation.

Those who survived became the first beneficiaries of the liberated areas. The kind of life that they had never dared to imagine in the past actually came to them, causing them to want to slap themselves a few times every morning when they woke up to prevent it from being just a dream.

Because of this, the growth of some things seems to be accelerating.

Trafalgar Law rushed to the hospital with a frown on his face and went straight to the office of the hospital director.

"Luo? Aren't you supposed to be busy? You should be rushing to other islands at this time, right?"

"Boom."

The envelope was slapped on the desk.

Luo looked at him with a serious expression: "Before coming here, I thought this thing should belong to the patient, but on the way I felt something was wrong... The fruit basket was given by your subordinates, and the patient's family situation cannot afford such a quantity."

"Lopez, so this is given by you? But from what I know about you, you are not a generous person..."

Lopez smiled when he heard this and said calmly, "This is a token of appreciation from the patients these days... not just the last surgery, but also the ones from the past few days."

As he said this, he stood up, picked up the envelope, put it back in Luo's pocket, and patted it.

"The Kingdom of Jersey was one of the first countries to be liberated in the North Sea. Before that, it hosted some commercial operations because it was poor."

"As we move from darkness to light, the volume of goods we carry is increasing, and more and more things are needed in terms of logistics. What's wrong with people wanting better insurance and better medical care when they have money?"

He patted Luo's shoulder and said, "And you... because of your fruit ability, you are the best doctor in the entire Beihai... no, I should say the best doctor in the entire revolutionary army."

“Where there is demand there is a market, and where there is a market it should be met, isn’t it?”

After the speech was finished, Luo looked at Lopez in disbelief.

The person in front of him...felt strange to him.

Why did the doctor who once cried bitterly in the alley next to the hospital in Ferefence become unrecognizable so quickly?

Where there is demand, there is a market...

This may be what a businessman says, but it is definitely not something a doctor should say, let alone something a dean should say.

"You are breaking the law!"

Luo's voice was even colder: "They give you more than this. You are being a doctor with a businessman's mentality!"

Pelos spread his hands and took out a book from the drawer.

"The law... is here. And everything I did did not violate any of it."

At this moment, the two were at loggerheads.

After Luo said that, the relationship between them had already been torn apart.
