Pirate: I'm really not a Super Saiyan

"Sorry, Xia, I need some time to think."

After listening to Xia's proposal, Long thought for a long time and replied to Xia solemnly.

"It's true that I founded the Self-Defense Force, but when it comes to something as important as this, I still have to discuss it with my companions before making a decision. I hope you can understand."

Long said apologetically.

"No need to apologize, Dragon. You and I both know that we are no longer alone on this road. That is the greatest gift."

Xia replied.

The dragon also smiled.

The time they spend together is always short. Even though the two of them have the best mobility in the sea, as the leaders of two forces, they are both very busy and have a lot of affairs waiting for them to deal with, so they parted ways.

Before leaving, Long suddenly said to Xia.

"By the way, Xia, have you ever heard of Vega Punk?"

"I know him, the world's number one scientist. I met him once before. What's wrong?"

Xia asked.

“I recently received news that Vegapunk secretly joined the World Government several years ago and is now working for the government.

If you feel the need, you can go find him. He is a scientist with a conscience and morals in his heart, and he also has many grievances against the Celestial Dragons.

I have invited him to join the VATU many times before, but he has refused every time. If it were you, I'm sure he would have a different response.

The intelligence I got shows that he is now mainly in the first half of the New World, doing research on the government's secret island, Punkhasat, and he also has research institutes funded by the navy all over the world. From time to time, he will apply to sail to various parts of the world to find inspiration. If you want to find him, you can try your luck in Punkhasat first."

Xia listened to the information about Vegapunk, knowing that it must have taken Long and his team a lot of effort to get this information. Long must have been eager for Vegapunk to join, but Long was revealed to him for free, and he was deeply moved, he said.

"I'll be there, thanks for the information, Dragon."

----

The first half of the Grand Line, Paradise.

After learning the news about Vegapunk, Xia flew towards the New World without stopping after parting with Long at Upside-Down Mountain, intending to try his luck in Punkhast first.

It would be best if we could successfully meet and invite Vegapunk to join.

If Vegapunk doesn't want to join, then I'm sorry, he will be tied up and brought to Vegapunk!

Facts in the original work prove that a strategic weapon like Vegapunk cannot be left to the World Government even if it is not used by the World Government itself.

I wonder if the future Dragon will regret his decision after seeing Vegapunk researching one thing after another for the Navy.

Moreover, he now seriously suspected that the light particle suppressor that CP0 had taken out before was most likely Vegapunk's masterpiece!

Last time, with the help of Ahua, the seized light particle suppressor was successfully transported to Shangri-La intact, but we were at a loss as to what to do next.

The new government's current talent pool does not yet have high-end talent capable of reverse-cracking this machine.

The few scholars who studied science were completely confused by this machine.

So whether for yourself or for overall considerations, you must take Vegapunk away from the Navy as soon as possible!

Xia secretly made up his mind.

In this way, Xia flew all the way until he reached the bottom of the red soil continent.

Even with Xia's monstrous physical strength, he couldn't help but feel very tired. To be on the safe side, Xia planned to rest in the Sabaody Archipelago first, have a meal and replenish his strength. After resting, he would cross the Red Earth Continent to Punkhast.

In order to avoid being exposed, Xia stopped near the Sabaody Archipelago and landed on the Sabaody Archipelago using the Moon Step.

Looking up, I saw a big number "1" carved on the tree trunk.

"Island 1...it's all the same anyway."

Xia randomly found a restaurant that looked larger to eat. This was a lawless area, and the shops here didn't care whether you were a wanted person or not. As long as you paid enough money, they would sell you anything.

"Bring me food for a hundred people, the sooner the better."

The first words Xia said when he entered shocked the restaurant owner, but he immediately became excited.

Here comes the God of Wealth!

The restaurant owner quickly invited Xia to sit down, and while diligently wiping the table and chairs in front of Xia, he said.

"Hey, young man, you have good taste. Our restaurant is the best on Island 1. I guarantee you will be satisfied!"

Xia kept his hat on throughout the whole process and did not look up, and the restaurant owner did not make a fuss.

Xia waved his hand, and the restaurant owner understood, shut up and left.

He then went to the restaurant kitchen and started roaring.

"Hurry! Move quickly! Serve the food as soon as it's ready!"

Xia didn't have to wait long before the dishes and staple foods were served one by one on the table.

Xia's chopsticks were as slow as an afterimage, and when he was eating it was as if four or five hands were picking up the food at the same time. He ate faster than the chef!

The restaurant owner was surprised and delighted, and immediately urged the chef to come back.

Although Xia was eating, he maintained his normal alertness and kept an eye on the movements around him.

At this moment, a man hurriedly ran past the door of the hotel with a focused look on his face, and accidentally bumped into the hotel's promotional board outside the door.

But he kept running without stopping for a moment and spoke without turning his head.

"Sorry, I'll come and clean it up for you later, I'm in a hurry!"

"Tezoro! You bastard, if you don't come and take care of me you're going to die!"

The restaurant owner rushed out the door and shouted to the man who was walking away.

Attracted Xia's attention.

Tezulo?

This name is the same as the future Golden Emperor, Gild Tesoro.

Xia silently memorized the direction Tezoro ran to, and concentrated on eating, planning to go check it out later.

With the surprised look of the restaurant owner and the farewell of the chefs who collapsed on the ground due to exhaustion, Xia finally ate until he was 80% full and walked out of the restaurant door.

"Let me see if you are the same Tezulo."

----

"Hahaha, Stella, you have no idea how funny that fat guy is today..."

Outside a cage on display at a human trafficking center, Tesoro was excitedly talking to a female slave.

The slave called Stella looked at Tesoro tenderly, her eyes as gentle as spring water, and was often amused by Tesoro's awkward jokes.

Xia, standing in the distance, watched the scene quietly.

It can be confirmed that these two people are the future Golden Emperor Gild Tesoro and his lover, the slave Stella.

In the future, they will be a pair of ill-fated lovers separated by the Celestial Dragons.

Xia turned his eyes away from Tezulo, looked at the building in front of him, and said to himself.

"Human trafficking center... hehe."
