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

At the same time, he also felt that joining the Straw Hat Pirates was absolutely the right decision he had ever made!

831 Luffy's sleeping energy!! Enviable!! [Seraph]!!

"Wow, all the gadgets Link brought out look really interesting!!"

While Vegapunk was still excited, Luffy and the others had already started fiddling with the gadgets Link had brought out.

"Can you buy meat from this vending machine?!"

"Hmm, I wonder if I can buy some rare ingredients~"

I want some medical books!

"Yohohohoho, it would be even better if there were panties too!!"

"Wow, Coke used to be cheaper, right?"

The group first gathered around the "Time Vending Machine," and then Usopp began to examine the "Steam Train Chimney."

This kind of device, which can be started by filling it with water and adding some coal, looks quite interesting.

Of course, there's also that [sleeping generator] that looks like a meter box~~~

"Hey, Luffy, you try it out. Let me see how much electricity you can generate while you're asleep."

"Is that so? So rubbery...sound asleep~"

In full view of everyone, Luffy demonstrated a falling asleep speed similar to Nobita's.

After that, Usopp didn't even prepare a hat for him.

He casually grabbed a jacket and placed it under Luffy's head, then sandwiched the Sleep Generator between the jacket and the rest of the jacket.

In an instant, the dashboard on the [Sleeping Generator] burst forth with an extremely bright and dazzling golden light!

The numbers surged wildly, making one's eyes twitch.

"Ahhhhh!!"

Usopp and Chopper were so blinded by the intense light that they couldn't even open their eyes.

"Such an enormous amount of energy!!!"

The only exceptions were Vegapunk's clones, Edison and Pythagoras, who were both robots and completely unaffected by the intense light.

There, eyes gleaming, they watched the electrical energy bursting forth from Luffy's sleep.

"If we could use that energy for research, how many resources would we save?!"

"That's right! How about we just let him sleep indefinitely and let him provide us with energy?!"

"I'm perfectly fine!!"

"Okay then~~~"

Lilith, standing to the side, readily clasped her fists together, eager to step forward and tie Luffy up.

"You all stop it!!"

Upon seeing this, Vegapunk's face immediately darkened.

His clones are good at everything in their research fields, but when they see this kind of energy, they just can't move.

Don't you even know who you're trying to tie up?!

That's the newly appointed Yonko, and also our newest client!

Your insubordination is outrageous! Be careful, you'll end up as a pile of scrap metal!

Vegapunk was speechless and stood there trying to stop him.

However~~~

"It really is quite tempting..."

He looked at Luffy, who was fast asleep and radiating energy, and flicked his tongue, a hint of envy in his eyes.

This kind of energy is what he has always pursued and needed.

If applied to research, it could likely yield significant results in a short period of time.

"At least, the latest secret model of the super-powerful Pacifista should be fully developed by then."

He muttered to himself to himself.

"Ara ra?!"

Aokiji, who had remained silent until now, heard this and glanced over.

"You mean, the Seraph creation plan?!"

"Ah, yes, that's it."

Vegapunk nodded readily and frankly.

Aokiji was previously an admiral of the World Government, and he had the authority to investigate the contents of some of the World Government's plans.

Among these many secrets is Vegapunk's Pacifista manufacturing plan.

After all, the Pacifistas are managed by the Science Unit, which is under the command of Admiral Kizaru Borsalino.

Since both Aokiji and Kizaru are admirals, the information they obtained was naturally quite similar.

Not to mention, the captain of the science unit is none other than Sentomaru, known as "the most tight-lipped man in the world"~~~

His tone... those who know, know.

"It's already on the agenda so soon?!"

Aokiji stared into Vegapunk's eyes and asked.

"There's nothing I can do."

Vegapunk sighed softly, "As the world situation becomes more complex and volatile, and as the World Government's control over the world and the seas continues to weaken."

"With the rise of more and more new pirate forces, the repeated incidents are undermining the World Government's credibility."

"With the rise of the Revolutionary Army led by Dragon, how could the World Government not take action?!"

"They had already put pressure on me before the Marineford War, urging me to speed up the research and development of the Pacifista."

"Especially the research and development of the highest-level [Seraph] series!!"

Their conversation, which concerned the Navy and the World Government's top secrets, also attracted the attention of the Straw Hat Pirates nearby.

"[Seraph]? What's that?!"

Nami, who was the most concerned about potential problems, was the first to ask.

"When you were with Lilith here, you encountered a robot that looked similar to Jinbe, right?"

Vegapunk didn't answer but asked a question instead.

"Ah, that's right~"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in acknowledgment, and Usopp even pointed to Lilith, who was standing there with her face turned to the side, acting as if nothing had happened.

"We almost died at the hands of that robot!!"

He rolled his eyes and snarled at Lilith.

"Sighs~"

The latter turned his face to the side and whistled as if no one else was around, completely ignoring him.

"Huh? There really are robots that look exactly like Jinbe?!"

Little Chopper, however, brightened up and couldn't wait to ask.

~~~~~~~~~

[A huge thank you to the generous donor 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch' for the yet another generous donation yesterday afternoon!! Thank you so much!!]

832 [Seraph]!! The animal representative of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!! What are you disappointed about?!

"Hmm, they look incredibly alike, wow!!"

"Is that so? Then, could there be robots that look exactly like me?"

"Yohohohoho, that's not necessarily true. Because that [Jinbe Robot] looks much younger than Jinbe. If you said he was Jinbe's son, we might believe it."

"Huh?! Is that Jinbe's son?! When did Jinbe have a son?! Was Jinbe's son turned into a robot?!"

Jinbe: "...I have no son!!!"

What utter nonsense!

Looking at the dumbfounded Chopper, Jinbe felt exhausted and speechless.

Didn't you hear them clearly? They just said it looks like you!

You're not a child, your comprehension skills are seriously... off!

Moreover, this rumor is far too outrageous; I am still right in front of you!

Jinbe was utterly speechless, but...

He was indeed quite curious about what everyone was talking about, the robot that looked so much like him when he was young.

He didn't encounter Luffy and Chopper down there, and he doesn't know what kind of robot it was...

"Stop arguing!!"

Nami immediately rubbed her iron fist, and everyone else immediately fell silent upon seeing this.

"I also want to know what a [Seraph] is..."

After everyone quieted down, she nodded in satisfaction and looked at Vegapunk, where she said very politely:

"Alright, please tell us the relevant information, Doctor."

Vegapunk: "..."

Your ability to change your expression so quickly is truly remarkable, young lady!

and……

He glanced subconsciously at Usopp and Franky, who were silent, and suddenly understood something.

It seems that this little girl has quite a bit of influence within the Straw Hat Pirates.

Or rather, her position and place in the food chain should be quite high...

"The so-called 'Seraph' is, to my current understanding, the highest theoretically existing model of a pacifist."

Vegapunk pondered for a moment before slowly explaining the relevant circumstances.

Anyway, he will soon cooperate with the Straw Hat Pirates, and will basically be under their protection.

He also has an obligation and a necessity to explain his research to them properly.

In particular, the pacifists are under the control of the world government.

In case they ever face the World Government's scientific forces, this will give the Straw Hat Pirates some idea of ​​what to expect.

"Just as the original Pacifistas were humanoid weapons developed based on Bartholomew Kuma, their strength is also much greater than that of the original Pacifistas..."

Vegapunk began to explain in detail the results of his human weapon.

Like the original pacifists, the Seraphim are remarkably calm and quiet, performing their duties in a robotic manner. When an attack command is given, they will act accordingly.

The Seraphs were specifically developed to replace the Seven Warlords of the Sea, one of the three major powers.

Therefore, Seraph's appearance is similar to that of the former Seven Warlords of the Sea. Although they all have the appearance of children, their size is much larger.

In addition, the physical characteristics of the Seraphs are similar to those of the Lunaria, with brown skin, white hair, black wings, and flames burning on their backs.

In addition, the seraph's pupils are star-shaped.

Like pacifists, the Seraphim bear the name "PX" somewhere on their bodies.

Seraphim is a cyborg, and the fact that she also possesses Kizaru's laser abilities is proof enough of this.

Some of its units can use external weapons, such as swords, and are skilled at using these weapons.

Moreover, they all truly possess powerful abilities sufficient to replace the Seven Warlords of the Sea!

For example, the Seraph, modeled after Hawkeye Dracule Mihawk, displays incredible swordsmanship.
