One Piece: Fist of the World

"Ahem, yes, I am the genius scientist, Thomas Grey!"

An idea flashed in Gray's mind, he pretended to cough twice, and then shook off the navy's hand unceremoniously.

"Don't come so close to me, bastard!"

"I'm so sorry!"

The naval captain named Gilbert Garland let go of Gray's shoulders. He was not angry because of Gray's attitude. Instead, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

Sloppy clothing, messy hair, thick dark circles under the eyes, and an inhuman way of speaking.

This is very scientific!

"Dr. Thomas, with all due respect, why did you come to this Tiger Shark Island, which is known as a lawless place?"

Although I don't know why, these navies seem to respect scientists very much.

But it is enough to know this.

"snort!"

Gray snorted coldly.

"It's not because of my research. Some special materials can only be purchased here."

"It's all your navy's fault. You know this is a lawless place, why don't you clean it up quickly! If it weren't for the circulation of those special materials being controlled here, it wouldn't be impossible to buy them elsewhere."

"Ah hahaha, this kind of thing is beyond the influence of a soldier like me."

Gilbert Garland scratched his head, looking simple.

"However, Lieutenant General Ghost Spider led us to Tiger Shark Island this time to sweep away the darkness hidden here. From now on, Tiger Shark Island will be a place protected by justice."

Lieutenant General Ghost Spider!

Gray had heard of his name. He was an absolute hawk general who pursued absolute justice. He had been a lieutenant general twenty years ago.

I don’t know if Rhodes can do it.

A trace of worry flashed through his heart, but Gray didn't show it on his face and just nodded calmly.

"Lieutenant General Ghost Spider, I have also heard of his name. I hope it is what you said."

"So, what are you trying to do by stopping me? Even the navy can't arrest people at will."

"You misunderstood, we are not trying to arrest you."

Gilbert Garland waved his hands hurriedly, and then hesitated, as if he didn’t know what to say to the other party.

This type of scientist is generally difficult to communicate with.

In fact, although they came to Tiger Shark Island with Lieutenant General Ghost Spider this time, they were not directly subordinate to Lieutenant General Ghost Spider, but a special team under Lieutenant General Stoloberg.

Previously, they followed Lieutenant General Stoloberg on a mission to the North Sea. Because there were still some follow-up matters to be dealt with, they stayed in the North Sea temporarily. It happened that Lieutenant General Ghost Spider was going back to the Navy Headquarters this time, so they took the Lieutenant General Ghost Spider. warships returned together.

And the Lieutenant General Stoloberg they followed has always been the direct descendant of General Kizaru. As Lieutenant General Stoloberg's subordinates, they naturally belong to the name of General Kizaru.

A few months ago, they received a mission from the top - pay more attention to civilian scientists, treat them with courtesy if they meet during the mission, and it is best to invite them to join the navy.

According to rumors, this was a request made by Dr. Vegapunk, the genius scientist who claims to be 500 years ahead of human technology.

After all, the Naval Scientific Force commanded by Admiral Kizaru is the special force directly responsible for it.

Although I don’t know how good the scientist in front of me is, it’s worth a try!

You must know that the last guy who successfully recruited a scientist was promoted directly to a level and was transferred to the scientific force.

Who doesn’t know that the Naval Science Corps is the best job, with light tasks, plenty of vacations, and good pay.

"We just want to invite you to join the Navy!"

After hesitating for a moment, Gilbert Garland spoke directly.

"Join the Navy!?"

Gray screamed to the point of breaking his voice.

"I know that you may think that joining the Navy will be restrictive. However, joining the Navy actually has many benefits!"

Unexpectedly, Gray's reaction was so violent. Gilbert Garland immediately hurriedly spoke to save him, trying to persuade Gray.

"The Navy is backed by the World Government and has the most complete research facilities to support your various research projects; it also has sufficient research funds so that you no longer have to worry about scientific research funds; and no matter what kind of special materials it is, the Navy All can be found for you to facilitate your scientific research.”

Every time Gilbert Garland said a word, Gray's eyes lit up, as if he had already seen the beautiful future described by the other party.

"Not only that, we also have the world's greatest scientist, Vegapunk! You can join Dr. Vegapunk's laboratory and study the most cutting-edge technology with him!"

Seeing that Gray seemed to be interested, Gilbert Garland struck while the iron was hot and continued to seduce.

Any scientist will admire Dr. Vegapunk, who represents the world's strongest technological level, and look forward to researching with him.

"Vegapunk..."

Hearing the name Gilbert Garland said, Gray was suddenly stunned. The excitement in his eyes quickly faded, and he came back from the dreamy scene described by the other party.

"I'll consider it."

What's going on?

Suddenly calmed down?

Looking at Gray who had regained his calmness, Gilbert Garland was filled with doubts.

It seemed that the other party was completely confused by the scene he described, so why did he calm down after mentioning Dr. Vegapunk?

Glancing at Gray again, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed through Gilbert Galan's mind.

Got it!

This is a very conceited scientist!

He was unwilling to join Dr. Vegapunk's team, but wanted to enjoy the same status as him!

Gilbert Galan was full of excitement, thinking that he had guessed Gray's idea.

Although this scientist named Thomas Gray could never reach the level of Dr. Vegapunk, since he had such conceit, he should at least have a considerable level of scientific research!

I want to be promoted too!

This was the only thought left in Gilbert Galan's mind.

He bowed slightly to show respect, and then Gilbert Galan looked up at Gray with sincerity on his face.

"Dr. Thomas, please give us a chance anyway! At least come and visit our warship, which is equipped with the latest technology."

"Since you are a scientist, you should have heard about it. It can cross the nest of sea kings - the new-age navy warship of the Calm Belt!"

Hmm?

Gray's head turned quickly.

There are two major problems to overcome in order to sail in the Calm Belt.

The first is how to avoid the attack of the giant sea kings.

The second is how to sail in the absence of wind.

How to sail in a windless environment is not bad, my own technology can also do it, although it can't last long.

However, there is no idea to avoid the attack of the sea kings.

If I learn their technology, can I upgrade the [Polar] and let us freely cross the Calm Belt! ?
