Pirates: Rush to the Peak

"In that case, I will not ask any more questions, but I still hope you can keep this secret. After all, this concerns the fate of tens of millions of slaves."

Seeing that Kuro was unwilling to reveal the source of the information, Xiong changed his way of speaking and pleaded.

Kuro didn't say anything, just nodded, indicating that he would keep the secret.

"By the way, you didn't come to see me just out of curiosity, did you?"

"of course not."

Xiong shook his head and took out a Den Den Mushi with an apple on its head from his arms and placed it in front of Kuro.

"I came here this time because I wanted to see you, and I also wanted to be Vegapunk's messenger to deliver this Den Den Mushi to you."

After Xiong finished speaking, Kuro picked up the Den Den Mushi and looked it up and down. Unlike other Den Den Mushi, this one was covered with a mysterious metal, and its body reflected a strange luster.

"Cachá! Cachá! Cachá!"

Just as Kuro was studying the Den Den Mushi, it suddenly started screaming in his hand!

"What the hell?"

The sudden shouting startled Kuro and he subconsciously wanted to clench his fists, but he reacted halfway, otherwise this Den Den Mushi would have become garbage.

"How to use this?"

Kuro asked the bear.

The bear stretched out his finger and pressed the apple on Den Den Mushi's head. The sound of answering a call was heard and the face of Den Den Mushi suddenly changed into the image of another person.

"Hello, hello? Is this Kuro-kun?"

A questioning voice came from the Den Den Mushi, tilting his head to look at Kuro.

"Well, it's me. Are you Vegapunk?"

Kuro asked uncertainly.

"Yes, hahahaha, I heard from Ba Jin before that you were looking for me, but I was busy researching an item and didn't have time to contact you."

"Fortunately, I have finally completed my research recently, so I have time to ask Xiao Xiong to give you my Den Den Mushi."

Maybe because he felt lonely researching products by himself in the research institute, Vegapunk was very familiar and enthusiastic when he spoke.

"Research completed? Pacifist?"

Kuro blurted out unconsciously, causing both Kuma and Vegapunk's eyes to widen.

The name Pacifist was decided by them and the World Government yesterday, how did Kuro know it? ! ! !

There was a moment of silence from the Den Den Mushi, and Kuro realized that he seemed to have said something wrong.

"that,"

"My dear Kuro, you are really amazing. Hahaha. Although Xiao Xiong told me that you are good at intelligence work, I didn't expect you to be so good!"

Vegapunk interrupted what Kuro was about to say and spoke to him in an admiring tone.

"Mr. Kuro, you surprise me again."

The same goes for Xiong. He has raised Kuro's danger level to the highest level in his mind. He will definitely talk to Long about this matter when he returns!

Kuro opened his mouth but suddenly didn't know how to explain, so he simply stopped talking and let them use their imagination freely.

"By the way, Kuro, what do you want to talk to me about?"

After being shocked, Vegapunk asked Kuro why he was looking for him.

"It's about the devil fruit you made, the one you announced to the public as a failure."

"Isn't that the one you ate?"

"Yes."

"What's the problem?"

After hearing what Vegapunk said, Kuro didn't rush to answer.

Instead, he raised his head and glanced at the bear. The bear immediately understood what was happening, made a gesture of leaving, and clapped his hands. He instantly disappeared on the island ship.

Kuro walked into the cabin with the Den Den Mushi, found his room and locked the door, using the Domineering Haki Field to prevent anyone from hearing what was happening in his room.

After finishing everything, Kuro put the Den Den Mushi on the table.

"The World Government has held me accountable several times, all because of this fruit. What went wrong?"

"Before we talk about the problem, I want to make a deal with you."

Kuro said to Vegapunk in a deep voice.

"trade?"

Vegapunk's tone was full of surprise, this was something he had not expected.

"Yes, I want to know how this fruit is made. In return, I can help you do something that does not touch my bottom line."

"It seems that the matter is really serious, which makes you, the Fifth Emperor, make such a promise."

Vegapunk raised his eyebrows when he heard what Kuro said. It seemed that what Kuro encountered this time was no trivial matter.

"Even if you need me to rush into Marijoa and rescue you."

"Hahaha, this is not necessary. I still have a lot of experiments to do here. I have to admit that the World Government is a very qualified material supplier."

Kuro almost laughed out loud. Vegapunk was just as Ba Jin said. The reason he took the initiative to be arrested was that he regarded the World Government as a supplier.

"I've accepted the deal, but I haven't decided on the compensation yet. I'll contact you when I need you."

"can."

"In fact, the birth of this fruit was also an accident."

Vegapunk walked over to his research table and used the power of the Brain-Brain Fruit to retrieve memories of the day the fruit was created.

That day, Vegapunk returned to his laboratory as usual after receiving the devil fruit samples sent by the World Government and several special ability users.

Picking up a bottle of power source and studying Kaido's devil fruit bloodline factor, suddenly an alarm sounded. Before Vegapunk could think about it, the entire laboratory began to shake violently!

"What happened? Nak!"

Vegapunk asked the artificial robot beside him!

"It's an earthquake! Be careful!"

As Nak finished speaking, earthquake waves began to erupt. The intense vibration caused Vegapunk to fall to the ground, and the items in the laboratory began to fall and be smashed!

After a while, Vegapunk woke up and Knuckles held him in his arms. The surroundings were in a mess. After they crawled out of the ruins, people from the World Government also rushed over.

"What happened? Vegapunk."

"earthquake."

Vegapunk couldn't help feeling sad when he saw the broken reagents all over the floor. All the results of his experiments for so long were destroyed in an instant.

"I'm glad you're okay."

When the government officials saw that Vegapunk was fine, they took out a Den Den Mushi and mobilized the navy and staff to clean up the laboratory.

After a while, Kizaru led the navy soldiers to the laboratory and was surprised when he saw the mess in the laboratory.

"That's terrible, Vegapunk, did you create a bomb?"

"If I have a bomb, I'll blow you up first!"

When Kizaru heard what Vegapunk said, he smiled and pushed his hands, then arranged for the soldiers to start cleaning up the entire base.

Vegapunk was following nearby, and suddenly remembered that the devil fruits were being cultivated in the laboratory, so he immediately ran towards the laboratory.

When he walked to the door, he saw a red light flashing inside. He immediately unlocked the door and walked in. As soon as he entered, Vegapunk discovered the problem.

The experimental bottle was supposed to contain the fruit embryo created with Kaido's bloodline factor, but it actually fell into Sengoku's blood factor.
