Become a revolutionary mentor from a pirate

A week later, in the research institute at Sky Island Headquarters, Kevin was invited to the reception room on the top floor.

"gentlemen."

Quinn bowed slightly, and then a robot brought a cup of coffee.

After taking a sip, Kevin smiled and said, "Are you still used to it here?"

Quinn held out his stomach: "The headquarters occasionally holds banquets, and I am the main player, sir. My singing ability is very strong!"

At this time, Vegapunk, who had just finished the phased trial, walked in. His eyes were bloodshot, which was obviously caused by a long period of short sleep.

Kevin stood up and came forward, took the coffee on the tray and handed it to Bega Punk: "The doctor's mental state is really worrying."

Quinn on the side spread his hands: "This is what the doctor was like during the pre-MADS period. When the experiment reaches a certain stage, he will live directly in the laboratory."

"Although we were like this when we discovered the blood factor. We couldn't sleep because we were so excited, but here..."

Quinn tapped his temple: "Only here as a doctor, after the experiment achieved initial results, he immediately began to think about the next phase of the problem."

"Sir, you really should persuade the doctor. Although the institute's technology can ensure that he will not die suddenly, his mental state will be unbearable if this continues."

Vegapunk drank a cup of coffee in one gulp, glanced at Quinn and said: "If the final stage of synthesis of blood factors and machinery fails, I will throw you directly off the island!"

Hearing this, his whole body tensed up.

The blood factor is related to the ability of the esper, but its characteristics require a mechanical heart to circulate blood throughout the body, so that the robot can display its abilities.

In addition, the application of fruit abilities on the human body uses physical strength as energy, so the machinery also requires energy drive.

Such a large project can be divided into thirty-two sub-projects, and further refined into more than 1,300 small projects.

And with so many difficulties to overcome, even if Vegapunk is a genius among geniuses, it is impossible for one person to solve all the problems, because if it depends on one person, then even Vegapunk, who has been divided into seven Punk will also take a lot of time.

You must know that the biggest project of the institute is still the giant mechanical soldier brought back from Mariejoia. For this sample, even Mr. has been in danger again and again.

In addition, Vegapunk's six clones are currently just processing machines in the cloud database and do not have any emotions. This is also one of Mr.'s requirements.

Having emotions like Stussy, who was created during the previous MADS research period, is absolutely prohibited in the Revolutionary Army.

"call……"

After drinking a cup of coffee, Begapunk felt completely relaxed.

Seeing this, Kevin hesitated to speak: "For now, there is enough time."

Vegapunk glanced at him: "Enough? Didn't Mr. Men say before that the Gate Fruit is related to the safety of a large number of members? Even if you put aside the research on energy, you must first use the ability of the Gate Fruit?"

Well……

It seems that he actually said this.

Kevin, who was turned against the general, sighed. For a moment, he was unable to refute the scientist whom the revolutionary army relied on.

But fortunately, compared to Quinn who would be thrown away if he failed, Vegapunk still gave him face.

"The ability of the brain fruit will not cause me any mental problems. Emotionally speaking, I enjoy the process of conducting the experiment and the joy of the results."

Vegapunk looked at Quinn as he spoke, and his eyes became serious: "I think about the banquet every day, and you can hold a concert at the banquet, right? You think I don't know about the signal transmission project?!"

"Your connected high-fidelity loudspeaker devices are seriously wasting the research progress of the project!"

⊙﹏⊙

Quinn raised her hands and took a step back.

The strong body now seemed like a big child being pressed every step of the way.

However, Vegapunk still did not let him go, reaching out and tapping his round belly: "Why do you think we can do research here with peace of mind? Why is there a constant flow of funds? Why are qualified researchers sent here one by one? "

"That's because we have members who pretend to be frightened and wander around various forces for funds every day, so that the Tianlong people are willing to pay and the rich are willing to pay!"

"There are also members of the Four Seas and the Grand Line. Is there a small list of sacrifices made a few years ago?"

"They are not constantly developing members and discovering talented people. With so many small projects, what kind of rap can you have time for?"

"Have I told you about the importance of the Gate Fruit? Or do you think that those in the World Government who have sacrificed single-digit members in the past few years are out of charity?"

The scolding was like a series of cannons, causing the strong Quinn to retreat step by step, and finally fell to the ground, his forehead covered with beads of sweat.

Not only Quinn, but also Kevin quietly retreated to the door.

He didn't feel it just now, but now he is sure.

The bloodline factor and the energy reverse research in the giant mechanical soldier's body have been used by Vegapunk for nearly thirty years in his memory.

[Note: Lao Bei was already in Punk Hassad during the O'Hara period. At that time, it was 20 years since the Supreme War Pacifists and 22 years since the emergence of Mother Fire. 】

[Note: The pacifist laser is also a manifestation of the blood factor and is a friendly sponsorship of Kizaru. 】

Now, although it has been nearly eleven years since Bega Punk joined the Revolutionary Army, and before that, he also kept the research results of Punk Hassad in his mind.

But it has only been four or five years since the Revolutionary Army actually developed a large number of scientific research talents, solved the funding problem, and obtained giant mechanical soldiers.

"That doctor..."

As soon as Kevin's voice sounded, Vegapunk turned around and pointed at Kevin with his outstretched hand: "And you!"

Well?

Kevin just raised his hands and looked confused.

"Forget it, you're fine now."

Begapunk suddenly became discouraged and his expression became a little decadent.

In this case, Kevin and Quinn looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.

"What's wrong Doctor?"

Vegapunk waved, and a robot handed over a box of tissues.

He took a piece of paper and blew his nose: "Sir, he is in very good condition now. As long as he is still there, the backbone of the revolutionary army will still be there. Things like what happened two years ago will never happen again from today on."

With that said, Vegapunk listened, waved his hand, followed Kevin, and walked out of the reception room.

Quinn on the side smiled and nodded: "All the experimental stages of blood factor application and machinery have been completed, and now only the final operational test is left. Because of the permissions involved, the doctor needs you to come back."

Kevin was stunned when he heard this.

pacifist……

This title flashed through his mind.

The two of them followed Vegapunk side by side, heading towards an empty operational test site in the institute.

Along the way, researchers from the institute came and went. Because Kevin was wearing the only mask specially made by Vegapunk, everyone bowed to him and said hello.

Kevin responded one by one and stroked his face involuntarily.

Wearing a mask, that's fine.

After the three of them arrived at the experimental site, Dorag also came over after finishing his work.

As soon as they met, Dorag pulled Kevin and said emotionally: "Doctor is really the smartest person in the world! That robot simply subverted my knowledge. You know, sir, you know what this means to us." ?"

Kevin sighed: "Is the fruit's ability a replica? But even the barrier fruit that appeared in Wano Country can conceptually isolate internal and external attacks, but the pressure from high altitude can also cause the barrier to tear the ground. Shenhai, Dorag."

These words made Dorag's excitement stagnant. He shook his head and said dissatisfiedly: "Can't you say something nice, sir?"

"melodious?"

As soon as Vegapunk in front turned around, Dorag felt his heart tighten.

"As a leader of the revolutionary army, what do you want to hear? Can it make the enemy surrender?"

"Sir, what you said is correct. The next step is to reversely push out the energy core, and the energy shield project based on it is the top priority!"

After being criticized one after another, Dorag could only sigh and calm down.

Then, I saw a big guy being transported on the vacuum track at the entrance.

"Using Uncle Xiong's appearance as a template?"

Kevin was a little confused.

In his memory, Uncle Xiong chose to succumb to the Five Old Stars a few years later and became Vegapunk's experimental subject in order to save Bonnie, who had inherited the sapphire scales.

But now...Kevin doesn't think Vegapunk will violate his own principles and transform Uncle Bear into a machine.

"It's just a reference to appearance."

Vegapunk continued: "In terms of the World Government, because the identity of the bear has long been exposed, and his body is taller than ordinary people, I chose him as the model."

"Currently, the huge body also causes a lack of agility. But until the energy problem is solved, there is no way."

Although Dorag on the side has been staying at Sky Island Headquarters, Vegapunk had never told him about the institute's affairs, especially the progress of several important projects that Kevin had explained before.

After seeing the big guy in front of him, he also wondered: "With such a size...if he didn't have the reaction speed of a bear, he would just become a living target on the battlefield."

Vegapunk glanced at him: "That's why I said before the energy problem is solved. Dorag, what are you listening to?"

Well……

Being criticized again, Dorag was speechless.

Quinn, who followed, said, "The research institute's reverse engineering project on the soldiers left over from that ancient kingdom has already made some breakthroughs. If it can be reproduced, the size of this robot can be reduced a lot. a lot of."

"That's all you know."

Vegapunk mocked: "The assigned project tasks have been delayed again and again, so I am very active in rapping."

After a lot of output, one more autistic person appeared.

Vegapunk then looked at Kevin, and when their eyes met, even he couldn't help but take a half step back, fearing that he would be the next one to be attacked.

"take it easy."

Vegapunk walked towards the robot: "Signal transmission and flexibility currently need to give way to energy. Sir, he said that the research on bloodline factors is to facilitate the transfer of members of the Revolutionary Army, so there is no way around it."

"But after the energy problem is solved, all problems are no longer a problem. Sir, do you know? The technology contained in the body of that giant mechanical soldier, even I am extremely amazed..."

"Seeing the big from the small, the technological level of that huge kingdom that existed eight hundred years ago seems to have spanned not hundreds, but thousands of years compared to now!"

At this point, Vegapunk sighed: "Even I can't reproduce many things in a short time... But such a huge kingdom was defeated by the World Government."

For a moment, the testing ground was silent.

And Kevin also knew why Vegapunk was so anxious.

During this meeting, Quinn was criticized again and again, and neither Dorag nor himself was spared.

The revolutionary army's thoughts have changed Vegapunk, but they have also given him the ideal to change the world.

The more you study the giant mechanical soldier, the more you realize how powerful the technology of that ancient kingdom is.

At the same time, I feel more and more oppressed by the world government that can defeat that country, like a giant.

So he was very anxious and anxious about the progress of the scientific research project.

He was worried, worried that the road he had finally found would die midway and be crushed by the world government.

"Snapped."

Kevin put his hand on Vegapunk's shoulder: "Don't worry too much, doctor."

Vegapunk turned around and their eyes met.

Kevin glanced at Dorag: "Nearly thirteen years ago, Dorag and I met for the first time in Rogge Town. At that time, I showed him some power... But at that time, I should still be It’s not as powerful as an ordinary naval vice-admiral, nor is it the world’s smartest brain, Dr. Vegapunk.”

"At that time, we were so poor that just a box of treasure could make Dorag excited for a while. What about now? Now we are very strong, really very strong, at least much stronger than we were thirteen years ago, Doctor."

After the words fell, Vegapunk was silent for a while.

He murmured softly: "I know...I know. But sir...sometimes the unknown is the source of real fear."

Kevin shook his head firmly: "If it's just power, to a certain extent, I alone will be enough."

As soon as these words came out, several people, including Dolag, were stunned.

one person?

How can it be?

But Kevin didn't explain.

The fishing net formed by the Golden Entertainment City has become larger and larger, and the number of fish falling into the net is gradually increasing.

After being targeted by pirates, the group of moths on Mariejoia had only Golden Entertainment City where they could have fun safely.

Coupled with the endless novel ways of playing in Tezoro, more and more Tianlong people will gather there in the future.

In other words, it will only take about half a year before the final battle of Golden Entertainment City is completed.

…

"I see."

Without any doubt, Vegapunk chose to believe.

Then he brought Kevin to Robot One: "Before I became a revolutionary army, my dream was to create nearly infinite clean energy. I believed that as long as there was sufficient energy, the world would be free from war."

"But now I know this is impossible. The root of what makes this world like hell is not energy, but the group of people who never regard intelligent life as an equal creature."

"So...I named these robots Pacifists!"

Sure enough, he is still a pacifist.

This seems to be Vegapunk's ideal. Even if he becomes a revolutionary army, this is still the source of his ideal.

Vegapunk continued: "The blood factor that Polusalino gave before was extracted, but the emergence of laser weapons is too sensitive. In addition, the main purpose is to use its gate fruit, so this batch The pacifist's abilities are all about opening the door."

Then, under Vegapunk's tinkering, a hole opened in the pacifist's chest.

"Sir, please extend your hand."

Kevin obediently stretched out his hand.

Then the pacifist's eyes lit up as his fingertips stung.

"The only highest authority has been entered."

"Please give the order."

Kevin looked at Vegapunk.

The doctor explained: "As a developer of blood factors, I can know how powerful they will be created by replicating the fruit's ability. At first, the robot having emotions was the biggest backdoor I left, but because of my husband's warning, I gave up ”

"But also because of this, without feelings and emotions, pacifists will only be machines that follow orders, not life."

"Machines will obey the orders of life, but human desires are endless. No one can guarantee whether these mechanical soldiers who bring peace to the world today will become one of the forces that destroy the world in the future."

Kevin wondered: "In this case, shouldn't you believe in yourself more?"

"No."

Vegapunk shook his head: "Even I can't guarantee that I can make the right choice, because they were created by me. And...in terms of strength, I am very weak."

"Sir, the only highest authority. With the authority to make all pacifists self-destruct, all it takes is your order."

Self-destruct?

Kevin understood what Vegapunk had said before: I created them. meaning in this sentence.

"Give it a try."

Vegapunk said, looking at Pacifist No. 01 and waiting to see.

Kevin will also get carried away and start giving orders to leave the transport truck.

Normal movement sensitivity is no problem.

Kevin then asked him to attack him, but such an order made the pacifist freeze in place for a while without making any movement.

"Confusing logic! Confusing logic!"

Vegapunk quickly said: "Sir, please cancel the order you just issued."

Kevin quickly canceled the action order just now, and Pacifist No. 01 became quiet.

"It is one of the underlying logics that one with the highest authority cannot be attacked."

Vegapunk said and looked at Quinn: "You, come out!"

Quinn pointed to his nose, looked around, and found that there was no one on both sides, so he had no choice but to stand up.

"Sir, you can ask No. 01 to attack Quinn."

"Quinn, don't fight back for a while. Use your knowledge and Haki to dodge. After testing the sensitivity, you can test the basic strength of the attack."

Vegapunk directed the running test and captured Quinn mercilessly.

Soon, Pacifist No. 01 began to attack.

Unlike in his memory, the pacifist who could not fire lasers raised his hand and fired bullets and rocket launchers.

The roar echoed through the entire test site, and a pacifist was actually able to fire nearly three thousand rounds of bullets, three hundred rockets, and a large autonomous tracking missile.

The basic strength is indeed unsatisfactory, but there is no problem with mobility.

Finally, there is the test of the door fruit.

Under the test of opening the door at the longest distance and carrying the number of people, it would be the greatest consumption for a hundred people to go from the first half of the Grand Route to the other side of the planet.

But if the distance is shortened, the number of people increases exponentially.

Nearly five hours later, all operational tests were completed.

Several people returned to the reception room.

Vegapunk said: "The only template with the highest authority has been reproduced, so subsequent gentlemen do not need to enter the authority again and again."

"However... the issue of energy is still the biggest limitation. The maximum distance of one hundred people is too small."

Hearing this, Kevin smiled and said: "It's already amazing, Doctor. Even if you transfer the members, you don't need to transfer that far directly, right?"

Vegapunk rubbed his forehead: "In terms of scientific research, your understanding is too shallow. When the number of people increases exponentially, the distance also decreases exponentially. If it exceeds the limit, it will decrease exponentially."

"What we just tested was an object with a mass equal to the number of people. In this case, if there are a thousand people, the limit may be the distance between the islands, and it can't be too far."

Kevin looked at Dolag beside him: "I remember that our current number of operational members alone should be four million, right?"

Dorag replied: "That's the data from two years ago. At present, the four seas plus the Grand Route, several legions including the Beast Pirates, and the armed forces guarding Wano Country, total 860 150,000 people.”

For a moment, even Kevin was a little confused.

The members of the revolutionary army in the East China Sea seem to be inferior to the 600,000 escorts in Alabasta.

How come there are so many in the entire ocean?

"PhD."

Kevin looked at Vegapunk again: "Can you make 8,650 units of this thing?"

Vegapunk grinned and stuck out his tongue: "It's okay, sir, as long as there are no problems with resources. Do you know how much this one costs?"

After the words fell, Kevin remembered that the cost of the pacifist in his memory was worth a warship.

Although warships seem to be just expendable items in front of strong men, basically anyone who is a big pirate has destroyed several ships in his hands.

But the cost of building warships is also very high.

"This thing...how much does it cost?"

"Two billion Baileys!"

"What!!"

Kevin stood up immediately.

Are you kidding me? Can three of these things be worth my own head?

Can you give me a slap in the face?

Two billion Baileys? Are Navy warships so valuable?

[Note: The Golden Merry, Luffy said in the Seven Waters Capital, that 100 million beli can be exchanged for a second-hand ship larger than the Merry. Discounted by half, Meili number is 200 million. Let’s compare the warships again, wait until I post the pictures. 】
