The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

"As you know, the World Government has been researching human giantification technology for hundreds of years, but still without any results."

"Even Vegapunk, the so-called second-best scientist in the world, was helpless against this."

"And I, the world's number one genius scientist, Caesar Courant!!"

He patted his chest forcefully, making a loud thud.

"But they cracked this genetic code, and the resulting research led to the development of technology that allows for the enlargement of the human body!!"

The highest level of human lying begins with deceiving oneself.

Caesar perfectly inherited this element, and there he didn't forget to take a jab at Vegapunk's endless ramblings:

"Therefore, this kind of gigantic technology cannot be developed overnight."

"Even the development of this one item has exhausted the research and development achievements of my previous decades."

"Therefore, although developing another one would be much simpler and easier than before, it would still require a considerable amount of time and effort."

"To achieve in one or two years what world governments couldn't accomplish in hundreds of years is already quite remarkable!!!"

Caesar's comparison of the World Government with the previous one softened Charlotte Linlin's expression somewhat, as she was unfamiliar with science.

"Is this so..."

She pondered for a moment and said, "Is there a way to speed up this process?"

With her current achievements, she is indeed quite impatient.

"If we speed things up..."

Caesar's eyes flickered slightly. "It's not that there isn't."

"Ok??"

"Cough cough~"

Caesar coughed twice. "If it's just me alone, it will indeed take a long time, a full one or two years."

"However, if I had a scientist of similar skill to work with me on this research, the timeframe would be significantly shortened."

Scientists of similar skill level...

Suddenly, a figure that she felt was very suitable appeared in Charlotte Linlin's mind.

"Is that so? Oh my~ oh my~ oh my!!"

After deciding on someone, she smiled happily.

"You don't need to worry about that. I'll send you a good scientist to work with you on the research."

Feeling elated at being able to achieve her goal ahead of schedule, she waved her hand dismissively.

"Hahaha, do you have any other requests? Feel free to ask now!!"

"Hi……"

Caesar nodded repeatedly, then his eyes lit up as he rattled off a series of requests, including equipment, funding, and research services.

Charlotte Linlin was in a good mood and granted all requests.

Finally, Caesar, seemingly unconcerned, put forward one last condition:

"Um, the great Ms. BIG MOM, there may be new developments in the research and development process at any time, so I need some manpower to help..."

Before Charlotte Linlin could assign him any men, Caesar directly stated:

"Could you perhaps send your capable assistant, Pokoms, to assist my research?"

"Pokémon? Absolutely no problem!!"

Charlotte Linlin readily agreed, "Not only Pokemus, but I'll also get Tamago under your command to work for you!!"

Yes, she really made a very good judgment and came up with an unexpected and delightful arrangement.

"Really? Then I'll thank you in advance, whoosh!!"

"As long as you can develop a gigantic device for me, I can fulfill any request you make, even if you want to have my children. Hahaha, come to think of it, I've never actually had a child with a scientist before!!!"

"Whoosh... Right now, I'm focused solely on my career and haven't thought about getting married and having children."

"Really? That's such a shame~~~"

As Charlotte Linlin smacked her lips, Caesar wiped the sweat from his brow and excused himself.

As he left, Caesar naturally didn't forget to take the gigantification gadget from Becky, as well as the disguised chess soldiers, Pekoms and Link.

Now, they are Caesar's nominal subordinates and must obey his commands.

The cake palace quickly became empty, leaving Becky listening to Charlotte Linlin's enchanting voice and making arrangements for her wedding.

"Whoosh! Finally, I don't have to face that woman anymore!!!"

Emerging from the Cake Palace, Caesar's floating, gas-like body headed towards his hidden research institute.

Meanwhile, 880 was there, feeling quite relieved.

In any case, they were facing the Four Emperors, who were located at the top of the sea.

That enormous body and the intense pressure made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.

"I thought I was already doing something amazing by deceiving Big Mom in front of her..."

He turned around and looked at Pokmus, or rather, at the chess soldiers behind him.

"But I never expected you guys to be so incredibly audacious, daring to pull tricks in front of the Four Emperors!!!"

As he spoke, Link and the others also revealed the disguises on their faces.

"What, what do you mean by that?"

Link glanced at him indifferently and asked.

"It's nothing, it just means that you all have exceptional courage, extraordinary people doing extraordinary things!!"

Caesar promptly changed his tune, gave a thumbs-up, and resumed his flattery.

"Especially Lord Link, he has absolute confidence. I even think he doesn't need to disguise himself; he could just walk right up to Big Mom and take that old woman down..."

Caesar's face once again took on a fawning, obsequious shape.

He had already contacted Caesar long before Link and the others arrived in the Totto Lands.

After all, when you come to this territory of the Four Emperors, besides Pekoms as your guide, you naturally need to have some undercover agents.

In addition, Caesar is doing quite well now, so he can indeed play a role.

And what he needs to do, naturally, is...

[Thank you again to the generous donor 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch' for the generous donation!! Thank you!!]

486 Road Sign History Acquired!! [Spy Tool Kit]!! Hiding and Lurking!

"I have made my request as you instructed, Lord Link..."

Caesar said with a fawning smile, "And Charlotte Linlin did indeed agree to my request, just as we expected."

Well, when facing her directly, she is the respected [Big Mom], but in front of Link, she becomes Charlotte Linlin.

Caesar was quite adept at using this kind of two-faced label.

"That's perfect!"

Link nodded indifferently; it would be best if the plan succeeded, but it wouldn't matter if it didn't.

Actually, there wasn't much of a plan; I just wanted to see if Charlotte Linlin could arrange for Germa to come and meet Caesar as soon as possible.

After all, if we're talking about scientists who can match Caesar, then Vinsmoke Judge is indeed the only one on this vast ocean.

As for Vegapunk, he's a scientist from the World Government; frankly, he's not on the same level as the two of them.

"But we can rest in your lab for a while, no one will bother us, right?"

"No, no!! Don't worry, Lord Link, I specifically informed Charlotte Linlin that the research requires me to do it alone."

"That's good~"

"Mmm, it's just..."

"What's wrong?"

"Um, Lord Link, when will you return my heart to me?"

"Let's talk about it after we leave this Tottoland Sea."

"..."

Why do you look so unhappy? Come on, smile!

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

~~~~~~~~~

Charlotte Linlin's first meeting was without her knowledge.

Sanji and the others had experienced the power of the Four Emperors up close, and they had a better understanding of the situation.

Actually, when they were at the Cake Palace, Link really wanted to test Charlotte Linlin's quality.

However, their primary objectives are the Germa Kingdom and the Road Poneglyphs.

Even Charlotte Linlin had to sit in the back row.

Therefore, the group held their breath for the time being, and at Caesar's enthusiastic invitation, Pekoms boarded the Singing Queen, taking the unconscious Baron Tamago and Zoro with him.

They arrived at Caesar's research lab and settled in for the time being.

His research lab is also on this cake island, but it's a certain distance away.

After all, research requires a quiet environment, which is conveniently located away from the busiest part of the town center.

Of course, Charlotte Linlin wouldn't be so comfortable with Caesar doing the research alone here.

She had specially arranged for quite a few Homies around the island.

He was to report any unusual developments to Caesar immediately.

Meanwhile, the residences of Charlotte Opera, the fifth son of the family and Minister of Cream; Charlotte Dosmarcher, the fourteenth son and Minister of Sweet Tea; and Charlotte Comppert, the eldest daughter and Minister of Fruit, are all located near Caesar's Research Lab.

It can be said that he was under the surveillance of Homies, and also observed by three capable ministers.

Whatever Caesar wanted to do, even if it was something unethical, it could be detected and suppressed immediately.

Therefore, Charlotte Linlin was not worried about Caesar at all, and instead focused on preparing for Becky and Chiffon's upcoming wedding.

You can gain a supernova pirate crew as a subordinate, hold a wedding celebration, eat the wedding cake you want, and receive many gifts you like.

Just don't be too happy.

Meanwhile, on Caesar's side, with Pekoms constantly returning from his missions, and with Link using the tools he had brought out for observation...

The group gained a certain understanding of this Whole Cake Island and the Charlotte family members residing there.

"Now, all that's left is to wait for the wedding to begin and for the arrival of the Germa Kingdom."

Everyone is waiting for that day.

According to their information, Vinsmoke Judge had taken on another job midway through his journey, which involved causing widespread destruction in a certain kingdom.

They will also be collecting gifts to congratulate Charlotte Linlin, so they will arrive a little later, on the day of the wedding.

This also prevented others from taking any rash actions.

However~~~

"The second goal can be achieved with ease."

Looking at the new item he had just drawn, Link's lips curled into a slight smile.

This is a prop with a human-like face and a blue, head-shaped body.

What's peculiar is that this face only has one eye, a triangular nose, and one ear.

On its bald, blue forehead, there was a yellow ball that looked like an antenna.

Link gently turned the yellow ball on top of his head, which resembled the moon.
