The Worst Fruit Among Pirates

"Huh... Huh... Isn't this too scary?"

Torrebol, covered in suspicious liquid, crawled out of the 'high-tech laboratory', looking like a drug residue that had been squeezed dry.

The 'medicine jar' used for training was filled with waist-high liquid, which already made Torrebol weak as an esper. Adding poison to it made the taste so sour.

Devil fruit users are actually not afraid of water, not even sea water!What I am afraid of is the active ingredient of sea floor stone contained in the water: pyrobroin.

However, almost all water in this world contains pyrobroin, so people mistakenly think that people with abilities are 'spurned by the sea'.

By the way, 'pyrobroin', a substance that condenses with water vapor in the sky, forms 'sky islands'.

"Just...can't you filter the water?"

"What are you thinking,"

A pair of shoes appeared in front of Torebol, and then Rossi squatted down.

"Although it is not difficult for us to filter water, how can you expect others to get you pure water during a battle?"

"While training your poison resistance, let's also train your resistance to sea water... no, it's to sea floor stone. Although..."

If you are immersed in the sea and fail to use abilities, domineering and other means to isolate the sea water immediately, no matter how powerful the ability user is, you will still be a landlubber.

"Hey, the road to becoming a strong person is too difficult."

Torebol, who was pulled up by Rossi, sighed. Seeing what Rossi wanted to say, he immediately answered:

"I see!"

"Sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime."

"call,"

At this moment, Jinbei, who smelled like potion, also stepped out wearing a towel.

"This kind of exercise is really unique, but the smell is a bit too pungent..."

Fish-Man Island does not have this kind of 'scientific' exercise method, and their economy does not allow it.

"Hehehe, a workout that costs 100 million Baileys is not something ordinary people can afford."

?

"It's so expensive——"

Jinbei was stunned. Although he knew that anything related to 'technology' must be made of a large number of Baileys, he did not expect that a venom resistance exercise would cost millions...

"Don't worry, your contribution to the family has already exceeded this small amount."

Rossi waved his hand and glanced up at Vergo who was soaking Venom. The Monster King Ambrio Yinwankov presided over the anti-venom training, with Lightning as his deputy.

As for the dragon?

He no longer knows where to go to develop his revolutionary cause.

Dr. Tieshedino immediately lost interest in the project after using Rossi to conduct an 'experiment' to verify that the Shemale King's method was feasible and had no side effects.

According to the doctor himself, what he is best at is the research and development of various humanoid robots and 'brain chips'.

In this regard, Rossi once curiously asked what the use of this 'brain chip' was.

The doctor's answer is:

"It allows me to transform into a plurality of independent individuals."

···

Gee, isn't this the 'split fruit' on the technology side? Sure enough, the end of technology is no different from metaphysics.

"Anyway, during this period, everyone should first develop their poison resistance."

In fact, it is not uncommon to practice poison resistance. Many assassination families and CP agents have related courses: you do not want to be invulnerable to all poisons, but at least you will not have the strength to resist when encountering poison masters. .

At the same time, these guys who train to resist poison are basically experts in using poison... For example, the Demon King himself: As long as he wants to, he can become the top poison master in the sea in no time!

"I'm going to the 'Greenbit' in the north. The doctor's follow-up plan needs the help of the little humans."

Poison resistance training was carried out in an orderly manner, and next was the 'Artificial Devil Fruit' project: this was a big project. Even with the financial power of the Don Quixote family, it would require purchasing various machinery, instruments, and materials from all over the world.

"Go and do your work and don't worry about us."

Torebol waved his hand and turned to look at Jinbei.

"Jinbei, do you want to go have a drink with us? Hehe, the dancers in Dressrosa are famous for their enthusiasm..."

And for Jinbei, he is tired of looking at mermaids whose average appearance is above 90 points, so how can he fall in love with ordinary human women.

Besides, Fish-Man Island is uneasy, so why call it home?

----

greenbit,

Because of Jinbei's efforts during this period, there are no more fighting fish around the steel suspension bridge from Dressrosa to Greenbit.

No matter how ferocious and aggressive the sea beasts are, facing the disaster of racial annihilation, they will eventually retreat to other sea areas.

"All the betta fish here have been gone lately,"

"It must have been the one who was scared away by that demonic giant,"

On the beach on the Greenbit coast, two cute 'little people' who were only the size of mice were patrolling and chatting while carrying pocket weapons.

"That giant is so terrifying, not only in terms of strength, but also like a real devil in his heart——"

"Oh, are you talking about me?"

? ? ? ?

A shadow shrouded from behind, causing the two Dongtata tribe's 'scouts' to freeze and stand on the spot.

"It's Don Quixote, the great devil!"

"Run-"

However, before the two villains had time to escape, a hand passed by silently, and they were gently held in the palm of their hands.

"Okay, take me to your kingdom."

"I have something to discuss with your clan leader. Aren't we friends?"

"Hey, are you a friend?"

···

Looking at the two villains who were no longer struggling in their hands, Rossi rolled his eyes.

In this world, it is really rare that Dongta Tower has not exterminated the entire population.

"Dressas..."

Three strange-shaped ships, carried by giant snails carrying the fortress, slowly approached Dressrosa. Standing on the deck, Vinsmoke Gaji glanced at the bustling port.

"Will this be the territory of the Don Quixote family from now on?"

The 'snail ship' of the Vinsmoke family can easily cross the Red Continent, which is why their family can appear as 'war mercenaries' in the great seas and seas.

This time, Vinsmoke Gaji received an order from the Don Quixote family.

Not fighting for their family, but helping them transport a batch of scientific research equipment: many of the instruments were even ordered directly from the Vinsmoke family.

From this order, Vinsmoke Gaji smelled a familiar feeling.

The purpose of these devices is to study, influence, and modify 'life factors', a subject that only a handful of top scientists have ever studied.

Although there are still some forces and individuals in this world who have inherited "blank technology", Vinsmoke Gaji has a feeling: these devices customized by the Don Quixote family are provided to some of his "old acquaintances".

"The Vinsmoke Family,"

On the dock, Peake took out the cigarette from his mouth, held it casually, and put out the cigarette in the air.With a flick of his finger, the cigarette butt drew an arc and fell into the trash can next to the pier, causing pink hearts to appear among countless girls who were secretly peeking at him.

Lord Peake,

So handsome~~

"Thank you for your transportation. Just leave the goods at the port and we will handle it."

Seeing the Vinsmoke family's snail ship docking, Peake directed the other party to place the 'cargo' at the designated location.

Next to Pique, stood the taciturn Pika, who was five meters tall and five meters wide. ——With his stone fruit ability, it is a piece of cake to work part-time as a porter.

"it is good,"

Vinsmoke Gaji, who was personally escorting the goods on the deck, nodded. The other party did not even invite them to go ashore for repairs. He became more and more suspicious that the people in the Don Quixote family who needed this batch of equipment were his former 'acquaintances'.

who can that be?

With Vegapunk in the hands of the Navy, did Caesar, a man of great ambition and talent, run out to do it alone?Or the dead fat Quinn who has lost news?Or is it that guy——

The figure of a small man flashed through Kaji's mind. Unlike other powerful 'scientists', that guy had almost no fighting ability, but in Kaji's view, he was the most dangerous one!

Remember that he was deeply studying the 'brain chip' that is completely inhuman, and... Yin Makinos's machine fighting skills?

No matter who is hiding in this country, if the Don Quixote family thinks they can easily control the members of Mads, they will definitely suffer a big loss!

"Unload the 'cargo',"

With a wave of his hand, Vinsmoke Gaji didn't care who the people who needed these instruments were, anyway, it was the business of the Don Quixote family. He just needed to earn enough funds to give his 'children' superhuman powers. !

Vinsmoke Kaji's first child: Vinsmoke Raiju was born last year.

He used his technological power to give the child the power to compete with an adult right from birth, an exoskeleton like a stomach, a fearless mind... and the ability to absolutely obey his orders!

The birth of this child proves that Kaji's technology for man-made interference with the 'life factor' has matured.

Although it cost tens or tens of billions of Baileys, it was all worth it to Vinsmoke Gaji!

Next, he plans to transform all future 'children' into such superhuman warriors to contribute to the Vinsmoke family's career.

As for the Princess: Vinsmoke Sora's opinion?

It doesn't matter at all!

In Kaji's view, what's not satisfying about being able to give birth to a 'superhuman' child?

After the defeat of the North Sea Raiders, Vinsmoke Kaji learned from the pain and prepared to cultivate a group of family's "high-end combat capabilities". With a large number of elite clone soldiers who are not afraid of death, one day he will surely rule the North Sea again!

"Compared to the last time we met, the king of the Vinsmoke family has become more indifferent."

Piqué glanced at the snail ship that turned around and left after unloading the cargo. The 'indifference' he was referring to was not Kaji's attitude towards himself and Pika: it was the feeling of domineeringness that Vinsmoke Kaji seemed to abandon. Human emotions are common.

"It has nothing to do with us,"

Pika, who was shrill and angry, didn't bother to care what others were doing. Without him making any move, the huge rock cliff next to the port began to bulge, and facial features and limbs appeared.

Finally, it transformed into a colossus that looked exactly like him, but was enlarged dozens of times in size.

The rock giant stretched out its hand and shrouded it. Under the horrified gazes of other people in the port, it wrapped up a large number of high-tech instruments, as well as Pik and Pika placed in the port.

then:

With a burst of squirming, these instruments 'integrated' into the body of the rock giant, and Pique then appeared on the shoulders of the rock giant. Then the rock giant took steps and rumbled towards the hinterland of Dressrosa.

"Is this... Lord Pika's ability?"

"Nonsense! Just look at that giant and Master Pika and you will know..."

"It's so powerful, a rock giant that's hundreds of meters tall! Can it smash a pirate ship into pieces with just one punch?"

Countless ordinary people looked up at this rock giant that traveled across the country. Because of the precise control of the stone fruit's ability, it didn't even leave a trace on the ground, making them point excitedly.

Such a terrifying giant would naturally make ordinary people feel despair as an enemy, but as a kingdom power, it only leaves people with a thrilling sense of security.

"As expected of the royal family of Don Quixote..."

"Lord Pika——!

"

The giant rock statue passed by, and there were cheers all the way.

Let me ask: What kind of pirate can act recklessly in front of such a giant statue?

If they knew that Pika's limit was 800 meters, and that he could transform half of Dressrosa into his own body, they would probably kneel down on the spot, because this is simply:

God-like realm!

"When devil fruits are developed to the top stage, what difference does it make to ordinary people and gods?"

At the gate of the 'High-tech Research Laboratory' located in the north of Dressrosa, Rossi, who was covered in a group of little people, looked like a wild giant slowly walking towards him. The buildings of the kingdom were like weeds under his feet, and he couldn't help but Quite envious.

Obviously Rossi is also a devil fruit user.

But not to mention the people of this country, even the many forces in the sea thought that he was just a simple 'great swordsman', which made Rossi speechless.

Forget it, let’s train our domineering and physical strength to the peak first!
