Pirates: From the Expulsion of Marie Gioia

Suddenly, in front of Zefa, a road slowly formed.

Looking at the scene in front of him, he walked forward along the road without any hesitation.

After he left, the fog shrouded the road again.

However, Zefa did not pay too much attention to the changes behind him.

His eyes were fixed on the road ahead.

Because he didn't know what was waiting for him next.

As time passed slowly, this road also came to an end.

What caught Zefa's eyes was a dilapidated experimental base.

Seeing this, he didn't think too much.

He directly stretched out his metal shiny hands and pushed towards the door of the laboratory.

With the sound of creaking, the old door was pushed open little by little.

However, there is a faint light inside.

Zefa looked up, and it was a group of fluorescent grasses emitting light.

He has a deep impression on this plant.

The first time he remembered this plant was through Vegapunk.

Thinking of this, he faintly felt that this place had something to do with Vegapunk.

After all, this fluorescent grass group is not a product of the sea.

They were jointly developed by Vegapunk and his assistants.

In the entire sea, they should be the only ones who can produce this group of fluorescent grasses.

But all of this is just his conjecture.

Zefa shook his somewhat confused head, throwing these useless thoughts out of his mind.

With light steps, he walked towards the deepest part of the laboratory.

All the grass we passed along the way.

After a while, Zefa came to the end of the laboratory.

It was a room with an open door.

Occasionally, a few trivial voices can be heard.

Sensing the abnormality, Zefa gathered his mind and entered the room.

He looked up at his surroundings and the source of the sound.

However, it gave him a false alarm.

Because the inside of the house is very normal, and it is not as dangerous as he thought.

As for the source of the sound, it was a monkey tied up in chains.

Zefa was surprised when he found living things inside.

Because he couldn't figure out how the chained monkey survived.

After confirming that there was no danger, Zefa began to carefully look at the laboratory.

Soon, he was on the test bench and found a dusty envelope.

Shaking the dust on it, Zefa slowly opened the envelope.

Then, he took out a piece of paper full of words.

That's what it said in the letter.

"I don't know if the letter will ever be found, or if I was alive at the time.

But I still want to write my story.

My name is Lijia Chuzuo, and I used to be an excellent student of Dr. Vegapunk.

But I am extremely at odds with the teacher's philosophy. I always believe that the soul can be transferred.

Even humans and animals can complete soul experiments.

But the teacher thought that I was heresy, and I couldn't get on the stage.

So I left his side and came to this island.

For my own safety, I have carried out a major transformation of the island, making it covered with fog.

These mists are a by-product of my experiments with soul research.

It is extremely corrosive and can get lost in it.

This makes me less and less worried about the intrusion of outsiders.

On the contrary, those who entered it have already boarded my test bed.

With more and more research, I feel that I have mastered the mysteries of the soul.

On this day, I finally made up my mind.

I want to prove to the teacher that my philosophy is correct.

So, I found a wild monkey.

Next, the experiment I will conduct is to connect with its soul.

If successful, I will tear up the letter myself.

If it fails, the monkey will be bound in chains, which means I am dead.

And the core device that controls the fog and organs of this island is in the monkey's heart.

Take off the button on the heart and you will be the second master of this island.

If possible, I hope you tell my teacher Vegapunk.

Disciple, I was really wrong. "

The content of this letter is not much, and Zefa read it quickly.

Then, he raised his head and looked at the chained monkey.

After a while, he exhaled a long breath and said softly.

"It seems that you have failed, Li Jiachuu."

"If I really walk out of this island, then I will definitely tell Vegapunk."

Then Zefa came to the monkey and looked at its weakness.

He slowly peeled off the chains on the monkey, revealing the location of its heart.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zefa inserted his metallic palm into its heart.

After a while of fumbling, Zefa took out a button-sized black button from inside.

Looking at the black button in his hand, he knew it was the only way he could get out of here.

But before leaving, he looked back at the monkey lying on the ground and shook his head slightly.

I don't know if it was his illusion, he seemed to see the monkey say "thank you" in a trance.

However, he didn't care, he only thought that he was overworked and had hallucinations.

In fact, this is not his illusion, but real.

Due to the deep resistance of the monkey soul, Li Jia's first soul experiment failed.

And with the death of the monkey, the soul of Lijia Chuzai finally gained the upper hand.

Let him complete the unsuccessful soul transfer experiment.

But he still failed, because the monkey's heart was damaged, and he couldn't live anymore.

However, this incident made him understand a truth.

"People and animals cannot be transferred casually."

Therefore, at the last moment of his life, he would say "thank you" to Zefa.

Zefa easily walked out of the island with the black button in his hand.

He didn't tell anyone about the accident of going to sea this time, but he silently remembered it in his heart.

However, he still told Vegapunk about his disciple.

Zefa always couldn't help recalling the process of going to sea this time.

And Smoker, who had been standing beside him, looked at Teacher Zefa who had been dazed for a long time, and shouted loudly.

"Hey, teacher, teacher, what's the matter with you?"

Hearing his voice, Zefa came back to his senses and said immediately.

"Nothing, just thinking about the past."

"Come on, I'll take you to a safe place."

"That island will be our future naval base."

Afterwards, Zefa's warship took the lead in leading the way, and the rest of the warships followed closely.

While giving directions, Zefa took out the black button that had been hidden on his body.
