Ultimate Blade Shadow in One Piece Navy

"Huh? Dr. Vegapunk, are you...talking to me?"

After Vegapunk finished speaking, a few people came back to their senses. Deborah pointed at herself and asked, but think about it, who could Vegapunk say such a thing to?Then she spoke:

"But, doctor, I already have a family and children. Although this place allows me to continue to make progress, I am no longer satisfied with this kind of happiness."

Vegapunk paused after hearing this, then nodded helplessly and said, "Yes, I'm talking about you."

Skyler also asked at this time: "Hey! Vegapunk, what about those thoughts I just had? Did you hear them all?"

Hearing this, Vegapunk's original intention to turn around paused. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "It's a very good idea, very good. Keep this spirituality."

"..." Skyler felt that Vegapunk was perfunctory, so he asked: "Then can you help me design and modify it? After all, you should know your work very well, right?"

"Others have done better than me when it comes to adding batteries. As for the extended range and kinetic energy recovery you mentioned... keep this spirituality."

Vegapunk forced a smile and was about to turn around and leave. Skyler frowned and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"Well... it's good to have ideas. It's better to have ideas that can't be realized, or have no real value, than having an empty head and maintaining this spirituality."

Showing an awkward yet polite smile, Vegapunk repeated it again, but Skyler reached out and grabbed his clothes directly and said, "Tell me, are you afraid of being surpassed by an amateur like me?"

"..." After hearing Skyler's arrogance, Vegapunk's smile also faded. He thought about it and said, "Skyler, for a layman who doesn't understand industry, your Spirituality is precious.

Because most people don’t, even some people in the industry and some scientific researchers, they don’t have fresh spiritual ideas.

But...industry is not driven by ideas, but by practice. The range extension methods you mentioned...if you live in a world that allows perpetual motion machines to exist, it may be possible, but here no.

I will tell you what you said, for example, can the rotating outer wheel be transformed into a hydraulic turbine generator?Of course, but..."

When Vegapunk saw Skyler smiling, he immediately took the turn. Seeing Skyler's smile fade, he continued:

“But have you ever thought that a hydroelectric generator, or any kind of generator, is essentially a process of exchanging energy for energy, and there are a lot of losses in this process.

Your idea is ideal, but think about the engine delivering energy to drive the motor of the outer wheel. In this process, the speed of the outer wheel is linked to the energy consumption.

There are so many components just to make the outer wheel move faster, but you want to use the rotating outer wheel to generate electricity. Do you want to create a confrontation within this system? "

After Vegapunk finished speaking, he looked at Skyler's confused look, opened his mouth with some difficulty, and asked: "You don't know that using an outer wheel to generate electricity will cause an additional energy loss in the rotation of the outer wheel, right?"

"I remember now."

Skyler suddenly understood and nodded, but quickly asked: "What about transforming the outer wheel into a waterwheel? Then use the principle of flowing water to generate electricity? Just like a dam?"

"Doesn't it require energy to transport water to high places? I know what you are imagining, and it can indeed generate some electricity, but the cost is an increase in the original energy consumption and a reduction in the speed of the warship.

If you're willing to accept that just to generate some electricity that might... just be enough to light a light, that's fine with me.

Moreover, if it is a merchant ship or other means of transportation on land, you may be able to use your ideas to design a system that recovers kinetic energy to extend the range.

But warships, from the beginning of their design, are not for energy saving, but for performance.

Of course, I am not trying to deny you. I still hope that you can maintain your spirituality, which is a person's most precious treasure. Never accept yourself with an empty head. "

Vegapunk's earnest words reminded Deborah of the time when Vegapunk taught them lessons when they were children, but... Vegapunk didn't have such patience at that time.

In other words, Deborah had never seen Vegapunk be so patient with anyone. For a moment, Deborah was even a little envious. After all, she was one of the most outstanding students that Vegapunk had ever said. Get this privileged treatment.

Skyler didn't know that his treatment was at a privileged level. He just scratched his head, showing a disappointed look, and said: "I understand, then if there is no effective way to extend the range, do you have a better battery here?" ?

Like a nuclear reactor or something?It’s best to have a mini-sized one, about the size of an Apple, which is enough to run a warship for several weeks. If such batteries could fill a room, I’m afraid the warship could never need to be charged, right? "

"I admire you for knowing about nuclear reactors, but... you can't even imagine the Germa comic strip in the North Sea."

Vegapunk shook his head, but couldn't stand it anymore and left directly. In Vegapunk's own impression, the one who did the best in energy storage was Germa's Gaji.

Vegapunk, who had worked with Gaji back then, knew how good he was in the field of micro energy storage equipment, but... even Gaji couldn't develop the kind of nuclear reactor Skyler mentioned. .

However... we can go back and review Gaji's technology. After all, it's not just warships that need energy storage equipment. The large number of pacifists who are about to be put into use also need better energy storage equipment to play a greater role.

If we could derive Gaji's energy storage technology and improve it ourselves, it might really be possible to solve the problem of insufficient energy storage for warships and pacifists.

Although Skyler doesn't know any technology, he is very spiritual. If he is not too immodest and makes himself angry easily, he can communicate more and inspire himself.

Seeing Vegapunk leaving angrily, Skyler shrugged and said, "Isn't Vegapunk too good at chatting?"

"Well... Well, Dr. Vegapunk should be busy with something else."

Deborah also spoke for Vegapunk at this time, and Skyler said nonchalantly: "Forget it, Deborah, the rest of the warship modification will be left to you."

"Okay, Lieutenant General Schuyler, but... Lieutenant General Schuyler, I suggest that the survival boats on the warships should also be modified. After all, small ships are the best adaptation scenario for this engine module."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. If you have any questions about warships, just ask Nurkic."

After Skyler finished speaking, he returned to the warship. It was just a transformation anyway, and there was no need to dismantle the warship. Moreover, based on Skyler's understanding of Vegapunk and others, they probably would not give it to himself and his detachment. Arrange accommodation.

Fortunately, Skyler is already accustomed to life on a warship. If she is asked to sleep on land, she will not adapt.

Early the next morning, when Skyler woke up and walked out of his cabin, he discovered that part of the warship had been dismantled. After washing and walking out of the cabin, he discovered that the entire warship had been elevated and out of the sea.

Scratching his head, Skyler sat on his chair, wondering whether he should go to the laboratory today to see if he could get some good stuff for the store. Nurkic, who was chatting with Deborah not far away, suddenly He frowned.

"Bru~Bru~Bru~"

The phone bug on him rang. He took it out and took a look. As he expected, the phone bug that rang was Skyler's. Deborah also took the initiative to say at this time: "Go and do your work. I can also start work here." ”

Nurkic nodded, trotted to Skyler, and then said: "Sir, phone."

Skyler took the phone and said, "I suddenly want to eat some fried food today. Please tell Leon."

"Bru~Bru~"

The phone bug was still thinking, Nurkic nodded and said: "Well, then I will notify Leon. By the way, sir...official phone."

With that said, Nurkic also pointed to the phone bug that Skyler had picked up. Skyler responded: "I know."

After saying that, she reached out to answer the phone call and asked, "Wei! Who is it?"

"Lieutenant General Skyler, this is Luo."

Two black circles suddenly appeared on the phone bug, and then Luo's voice came. Skyler nodded and said, "Didn't you go to Pang Island? Something happened?"

"Yes, I came to Punk Hassard, and... yes, something happened."

In an underground research room on Punk Hassad Island, Luo looked at the surrounding scene and said: "I discovered the human giantization experiment on Punk Island, and the signs were that it was only built recently.

And I also found some symbols of the Beasts Pirates. I suspect that Caesar Coulan, who was rescued by Kaido of the Beasts, has returned to Punk Hassad and conducted illegal experiments with the help of Punk Hassad's equipment. "

A few days ago, he received an order from his headquarters to assist Smoker in capturing the Straw Hats. Before setting off, he also asked Skyler for instructions.

After all, he could see that Luffy still had something to do with the Navy, and the person who was most likely to know about it was Skyler, but Skyler's opinion was to do what he should do.

He originally thought that at most he would come to Pang Island to help Smoker fight against the Straw Hats, but Luo did not expect that there would be "surprises" on Pang Island that he could not imagine.

Although Pang Island was destroyed in the battle between Sakaski and Kuzan two years ago, the underground infrastructure was not seriously damaged, and Vegapunk was too lazy to remove the "outdated" equipment.

Therefore, Pangdao's experimental base had the basis to be restarted, and after his two days of investigation, he had roughly figured out some situations.

It was precisely because he understood the changes in Pang Island that Luo considered whether to "capture" the Straw Hats as ordered, or to continue to investigate the human gigantism experiment and the conspiracy of the Beast Pirates.

If you choose from the impact of the incident, the latter is obviously more important, but he has not received a task in this regard, and at the same time, he will not report it to the headquarters immediately.

Because Luo knew that once he reported to the headquarters, he would lose the possibility of tracking him. After all, to put it bluntly, with his current strength, it was difficult for the headquarters to believe that he could handle matters related to the Beast Pirates.

But other current levels do not have the autonomy to act. Although they are lieutenant generals, they are more functional lieutenant generals, mainly playing a supporting role.

Therefore, he called Skyler. It was very simple, because Skyler had the autonomy to act and a high enough status. If Skyler could support him in the investigation, then...

Luo took a deep breath and looked at the experimental equipment around him, with disgust in his eyes.

As a doctor, he would never allow such experiments that violated medical ethics and human ethics to exist. He wanted to eliminate them all with his own hands, even if he had to become enemies with all the beasts.

After Skyler heard Luo's news, he also patted his forehead to wake himself up quickly from his sleep state, and at the same time muttered: "I really forgot about Kaido of the Beasts recently. "

After thinking about it, Skyler said to Nurkic who was walking back: "Nurkic, can we leave now?"

Hearing this, Nurkic instantly became solemn and glanced at the phone bug in Skyler's hand, knowing that something big had probably happened, but...he said:

"Sir, even if we give up the modification of the engine now, it will still take at least a day before we can set off."

"Is that so..."

Skyler thought for a moment, and then said to the phone bug: "Luo, you go find Smoker, temporarily give up the pursuit of the Straw Hats, and find out the illegal experiment on Pang Island as soon as possible.

If you encounter a strong enemy, call for support directly. Generals Fujitora and Green Bull are still at their headquarters, so it shouldn't take much time in the past.

The warship here is undergoing modification. Once the modification is completed, I will go over to check the situation. "

Skyler never thought about whether this was not in line with the procedures. After all, the Zhanye detachment did not have the blood to follow the procedures in a disciplined manner.

Who can be willing to go a few extra steps or even give up the task for a process that can obviously be done directly? Who can be willing to do this?Therefore, she directly supported Luo to continue the investigation.

And Luo reported it to her precisely because he guessed what she was thinking. At this time, after hearing Skyler's permission, Luo showed a smile, nodded solemnly, and said:

"Yes! Lieutenant General Skyler! I will find out all this as soon as possible!"

Putting down the phone, Luo breathed a sigh of relief. He made the right bet and got the chance to continue investigating. However, when he raised his hand and glanced around, the smile that had not yet appeared was aborted.

After all, this is not something to be happy about. If he continues to investigate, he may uncover many unknown conspiracies, and he may also encounter some enemies that he cannot deal with yet.

Not far away, Bei Bo, who was directing the team to classify the searched items, ran over when he saw Luo put down the phone and said, "Sir, what should we do now?"

Hearing this, Luo rubbed his dark circles and said, "Let's investigate! By the way... Just ask Ace to come over. Although nothing may happen, if they are here, there will be a lot less trouble." .”

After saying that, Luo added in his mind, "If there is no trouble, then Ace is the biggest trouble." Of course, he wanted to help Ace at this time, so naturally he would not say anything harmful to him.

Bebo nodded, turned around and started to contact Ace, while Luo looked around.

This is not the first time he has come to Pang Island. He has been here once before when Kaido invaded Pang Island and participated in the rescue mission, so he is quite familiar with this place.

Although some modifications have been made here, and the previous battle between Sakaski and Kuzan also severely damaged the structure of Pang Island, the overall layout has not changed.

"Bru~Bru~Bru~"

Just as Luo Cha was looking around, the phone bug on his body suddenly rang. He connected directly. Before asking, there was a voice from the other side.

"Luo, this is Smoker. Have you arrived in Punk Hassad? The line I just called you was busy."

"Lieutenant General Smoker? I arrived at Punk Hassad two days ago and am investigating. How is the situation over there?"

After Luo finished speaking, Smoker was silent for a while, but listening to his breathing, it seemed that he was suppressing his emotions, and then he said:

"I had a battle with the Straw Hats today. During the battle, we lost traces of each other. Our initial guess is that they escaped through the underground research room passage."

Hearing this, Luo said: "Okay, I understand, do you know Punk Hassad's original layout?"

"know."

"I'm waiting for you at the entrance of Research Laboratory No. [-]. I've found a more important target. The Straw Hats may have to put it aside for a while. I'll tell you the details after we meet."

The phone bug was silent for a while, and then responded: "Is this the new arrangement of the headquarters? But the Straw Hat..."

"No, it's Lieutenant General Skyler's arrangement."

Luo interrupted Smoker. He knew that if it was a new order issued by his department, Smoker might not execute it immediately, but Skyler was different.

Just as Luo speculated, after hearing the order from Skyler, Smoker no longer remained silent or took a deep breath to suppress his anger, but answered clearly: "Okay, I understand, No. [-] See you in the lab."

After that, Smoker's side cut off the connection, and Luo Ye looked at Bebo, who was walking towards him, and asked, "What did Ace say?"

"Ace said..." Bebo Bear's face showed human embarrassment, and then said: "Ace said that you should call him to beg him, or admit that you can't do it without him..."

"I see."

Luo nodded, and the phone dial that had not been put away was dialed again. Seeing this, Bebo asked: "Did you really ask him?"

"impossible!"

Luo said categorically. At this time, the phone caller also dialed out and was connected after a few seconds.

"Wei?! This is the Spade detachment, and I am the adjutant Yamato!"

Hearing Yamato's voice, the corner of Luo's mouth raised slightly and said: "I'm Luo. I discovered the crime scene of the Beast Pirates in Punk Hassad. Ace seems unwilling to come over. Please help me ask what's going on. .”

"What?! That bastard Ace actually..."

"Boom! Squeak~~~"

Yamato's voice quickly zoomed out, followed by the sound of the phone bug falling to the ground, and the sharp buzzing sound also came from the phone bug's mouth. It seemed that the signal was wrong.

At this time, the corners of Luo's mouth were raised, and the arc was getting wider and wider. How could he be stupid enough to be tricked by Ace?

And that guy Ace actually wanted to trick him, so don't blame him for self-defense.

Bebo also understood Luo's plan at this time, and a smile appeared on the bear's face. One person and one bear looked at each other in silence, and then he easily led the detachment and rushed towards Research Institute No. [-].

Since the Red Heart Detachment was closer to Research Institute No. [-], Smoker had not yet appeared when Luo and others arrived, but Luo was not in a hurry. According to his calculations, something exciting would happen next.

"Bru~Bru~"

That was the time for Ace to call. He moved his facial muscles and tried his best to make his smile disappear. Then Luo picked up the phone and asked deliberately: "Hello, I'm Luo, who are you?"

"Lo! It's Ace!"

Ace's angry and loud-tongued voice came from the phone bug. Luo was very satisfied with the change in Ace's voice. After all, it showed that Yamato was probably greeting Ace in the face.

Continuing to suppress his almost uncontrollable laughter, Luo continued to ask: "Ace? Just now Bebo said you were not going to come to help, so I asked Yamato to ask about the situation. What is your decision now?"

"Huchi~huchi~"

Ace's heavy breathing came, and after a while, he roared with a big tongue: "You didn't tell me that this matter has something to do with the Beasts Pirates!!!"

"Ah? Didn't Bebo say anything?"

Luo pretended to be surprised and asked, then looked at Bebo and said, "Bebo, when you contacted Lieutenant General Ace, didn't you explain this?"

Bebo Bear had an innocent look on his face, scratched his semicircular ears, and said: "Report to the commander! Before I could say anything, Lieutenant General Ace heard that it was you asking for help, so he asked you to ask him directly, and then he Hang up on me."

"Ah? Is that so? Lieutenant General Ace, did Bepo lie?"

Luo said to the phone bug with a serious face, and Ace stopped talking, because...this is indeed a fact.

When he heard that Luo actually asked him for something, he was so happy that he didn't even have time to ask why. He hurriedly wanted Luo to try what it was like to ask for help.

And it was indeed him who hung up the phone on his own initiative. After all, he was so happy that he wanted to be a decisive winner.

Who knew... I actually missed hearing such crucial information. If I could be more patient...

wrong!That guy Luo might not be able to distinguish the priorities of things. Moreover, if Luo really wanted to make it clear, then the call should not be made to Yamato, but to himself!

"Luo! You are a bastard! Hiss~"

Ace's furious voice came through the phone. After he finished speaking, there was a sound of breathing cold air. It was probably because he was angry or injured.

Luo shrugged and did not deny Ace's statement. Moreover, this incident was not his fault in the first place. Ace did this because he wanted to deliberately embarrass him. So, he said calmly:

"Then Lieutenant General Ace, I am waiting for your arrival in Punk Hassad. Goodbye."

"asshole!"
