Pirates: Become invincible from capturing the Navy Goddess

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.

Under the training of Dr. Yekov, Blackbeard's physique became stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he was able to easily defeat a brown bear.

People can't help but wonder, "How the hell is this eight years old?"

No, a year has passed and Blackbeard is now nine years old.

In fact, Blackbeard's talents go far beyond that.

If Blackbeard had been trained by professionals, he might have had a chance to reach the rank of ensign by now.

A nine-year-old second lieutenant. Even Ace wasn't this exaggerated when he was nine.

On this day, Yekov suddenly returned to the room, half panicked and half surprised, and he looked dazed.

"What's wrong, father?"

After a year of hard training, Blackbeard matured quickly. He skipped over his rebellious period at a rapid speed and gradually understood his father's behavior. He was serious and stern like a little adult all day long.

"How could this happen? How could this happen? Is this a blessing or a curse?" Yekov scratched his hair, muttering to himself.

The people at the research institute finally became interested in Blackbeard's unusual speed of growing stronger.

He was thrown into the Colosseum to fight with wild beasts, and Blackbeard defeated them all, from the ocelot at the beginning to the brown bear later.

A year ago, he was just a kid with more strength, but just one year later, he could knock down a brown bear with his bare hands.

Under such circumstances, the people in the institute conducted a full-body experience on Blackbeard.

The results of the experience just now came out.

The reason why Blackbeard is so energetic is because he has three hearts!

The scientists who got the results immediately became very interested.

It's not like they haven't encountered people with multiple hearts before, but such children would almost always die before they are born.

Blackbeard is also the first child to have three hearts and grow to this size.

Just three hearts, of course, are not enough to make scientists so excited about giving up any technology they have that could change human history.

Because just before this, one of them raised a point of view.

That person suspected that the energy of the devil fruit was housed in the heart, and that different devil fruit energies would repel each other, and would explode when they met, so a person could only eat one devil fruit.

What if this person has multiple hearts? If a devil fruit resides in each heart, can he eat multiple devil fruits?

Once this proposal was made, many scientists agreed with this view after conducting experiments.

It quickly climbed to the eighth place on the institute’s research list.

In that era when genetic cloning technology was not yet mature, the only pity was that there were no mice.

However, after the appearance of Blackbeard, the importance of this research has been ranked in the top three of the research institute list.

Yekov had seen their experiments, but did not agree with the view.

Because he observed that every time he experimented with the devil fruit, in addition to most of the energy residing in the heart, a small amount of energy mysteriously disappeared from the human body.

Yekov guessed that since the missing part was not in the body, could it be in the soul?

Other scientists don't care about Yekov's ideas. Blackbeard is not their son. They just want to use real data to speak.

Yekov knew very well that being a guinea pig was not a safe thing, especially among this group of scientific lunatics.

Blackbeard had no choice but to survive after being dragged onto the experimental table.

The only thing that can save Blackbeard is if he can create a project that is far more important than this one and successfully prove his worth.

In this way, even for the sake of their own "talent", they would not touch Blackbeard.

At least until his research is completed, Blackbeard is safe.

In the end, Yekov told Blackbeard that his son had three hearts.

"I, I actually have three hearts. Am I a monster?"

The chubby boy with black beard opened his mouth wide when he heard that.

"No, son, you are a natural born king! Daddy will not be a burden to you. Your goal in the future will be the stars and the sea!"

After saying this, Yekov put on a white chemical protective suit and strode out as if he had made up his mind.

"I am a natural born king, my goal is the sea of ​​stars."

The only person left in the room was Blackbeard, who kept muttering the words his father had left behind.

In the following days, in order to protect his son's safety, Yekov handed over all his knowledge of gene editing technology, and he worked from dawn to dusk every day.

Even the time for training Blackbeard was taken away from him, and Blackbeard was the only one training every day.

Because of the high-intensity work, Yekov's body became increasingly weak, dark circles appeared on his face all year round, and his body became increasingly thin.

While researching gene editing technology, Yekov did not forget to secretly study Blackbeard's heart and the problem of the devil fruit, hoping to pave the way for his son's future.

After thinking about it countless times, Yekov felt that he was 90% sure.

During a covert gene editing operation, he created a mouse with three hearts to eat the devil fruit.

Sure enough, the mouse died when it ate the second fruit.

After that, he used gene editing technology to cultivate a mouse with a split soul, that is, two independent consciousnesses, and two hearts.

This time, Dr. Yekov succeeded!

The mouse managed to eat two devil fruits without exploding.

By this time, Yekov was 100% sure.

His previous guess was correct.

Most of the power of a devil fruit resides in the human heart, and an imperceptible part resides in the human soul.

It's as if...the devil fruit has its own soul.

This thought made Yekov shudder, but he quickly abandoned this ridiculous idea.

How could something like a devil fruit have self-awareness?

In fact, Yekov's guess was not wrong.

Some devil fruits will indeed look for masters that are suitable for them.

The cruelest thing is that Luffy ate the Sun God Fruit, which allowed him to hide from the World Government for 800 years!

But the most crucial thing is that gene editing technology can only be used on unborn children. Blackbeard is already so old that it is impossible to use it on him to create a second soul.

Yekov was even more unwilling to do something like torturing Blackbeard to make him schizophrenic.

Rather than endure such pain, it would be better for the whole family to die in peace.

So Dr. Yekov began to read a lot of information and ancient books, trying to find a solution.
