Pirates: The biggest scum in naval history

Darren didn't expect that a cup of coffee would have such a big impact on Vegapunk.

His eyes seemed to become clear and wise under the effect of caffeine.

As if seeing the surprise on Darren's face, Vegapunk smiled and said:

"Don't underestimate the power of science, Mr. Darren."

He pointed to a screen not far away, on which there were red curves constantly jumping.

At first Darren thought it was some other experimental data. After all, there were countless screens showing data changes in Vegapunk's laboratory.

But when he looked at it carefully, Darren found that the data on the screen was the strength of the biomagnetic field in his body!

"Mr. Vegapunk... can actually detect the strength of the biomagnetic field remotely?"

Darren was slightly surprised.

Vegapunk smiled and said:

"The essence of biological magnetic field is actually a kind of radiation energy."

"Since I can deconstruct the energy transmission conditions of Borsalino's Flash Fruit, I will naturally be involved in the power of magnetic field... But as my research becomes more and more in-depth, I have gradually touched upon many difficult problems, and I can feel the greatness and profundity of this power more and more."

"Electromagnetic force... seems to be an incredible force involving a certain "essence", and even I find it difficult to peek into its mystery."

After hearing the last sentence, Darren could not help but fall silent.

Vegapunk is indeed worthy of being the most talented and outstanding scientist in the world. He has actually touched upon some knowledge of "electromagnetic force" from the study of magnetic fields.

From the perspective of modern physics on Earth, electromagnetic force is one of the four fundamental forces of the universe.

If there is someone in the world who can completely deconstruct and even master electromagnetic force, then he will have a power close to omnipotence.

That is not just a simple manipulation of metal, but an extraordinary, god-like power.

Changing thoughts, raising storms, moving planets, and even creating wormholes to teleport across galaxies or even reverse time... are not a problem at all.

Of course, that is only a theoretical thing, and it is impossible to achieve it in reality.

But even so, Vegapunk was able to understand the existence of "electromagnetic force" with the extremely limited physics knowledge of this world, which is already a remarkable thing in itself.

"That is a field that I cannot enter for the time being. I always feel that some important puzzle pieces are missing."

Vegapunk smiled, and although there was some regret in his expression, he was quite free and easy.

"... Fortunately, the research on devil fruits has brought me a lot of fun."

Hearing this, Darren couldn't help but cheer up and become interested.

The top scientists he knew on this sea all had their own strengths.

Germa Gazhi was good at gene editing and the development of high-tech weapons.

Quinn, the "plague" of the Beasts Pirates, focused on biological transformation and virus research.

As for the "evil scientist" Caesar Kulang, who worked for his godson Doflamingo and provided artificial devil fruits in the original plot, he was proficient in the technology of artificial devil fruits.

They each have their own research focus and strengths, but Vegapunk is the only one who is good at all of their strengths and also masters the most cutting-edge devil fruit research.

In the study of devil fruits, no one in this sea is better than Vegapunk.

Although he successfully awakened the magnetic-magnetic fruit and mastered the method of practicing with the help of "magnetic field rotation" with the help of Quinn, there are still many problems and doubts overall.

If Vegapunk can give me some advice, it will definitely save me a lot of useless work.

"Mr. Vegapunk, I do have some problems to solve."

So Darren briefly described the problems he encountered and existed.

Vegapunk listened patiently and nodded from time to time to respond. After Darren finished speaking, he pondered for a few seconds, and then a smile gradually appeared on his face.

He looked at Darren and said:

"Mr. Darren, in my research on devil fruits over the years, I gradually realized the essence of this special power."

The essence of devil fruits?

Hearing this, Darren and Stussy were both shocked and their expressions became serious.

Borsalino was still shaving his nails carelessly, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

Vegapunk put his hands behind his back, paced back and forth in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window in the laboratory, and said slowly:

"The so-called devil fruit... is actually the possibility of "human evolution" that people pursue. The animal system is the possibility of humans trying to evolve into wild animals in a dangerous environment, and the superhuman system is the human fantasy of having supernatural powers to fight against the dangers of various disasters."

"The natural system is the attempt made by humans to master the power of "nature" itself..."

"The three major types of devil fruits are essentially the results of humans trying to find "evolution", but this so-called "evolution" is not "natural."

"Because of this, this "unnatural" is rejected by the mother of nature - the sea -, so devil fruit ability users cannot swim."

Darren's heart trembled slightly.

When he heard this, something seemed to flash through his mind, as if he had caught something, but it flashed away and missed it.

Stussy seemed to understand what he said, and frowned.

Vegapunk was not in a hurry, but just tasted his coffee with a smile and waited patiently.

"So you mean that devil fruits do not exist in nature?"

Darren asked suddenly.

Vegapunk smiled with satisfaction.

He looked at Darren with appreciation and smiled:

"Mr. Darren is indeed gifted and saw the most critical core at a glance."

"You are right. This may be the essence of the devil fruit. It may not be something formed naturally at the beginning, but formed by some special power, or created by some great existence, or even derived from some special environment..."

"But it doesn't matter, because from the moment the devil fruit was born, it was destined to be unpredictable."

"Since the essence it symbolizes is human evolution, and human evolution is unpredictable, the development of the devil fruit itself is also unpredictable."

"This also means..."

He looked at Darren seriously and said word by word:

"Mr. Darren, the direction of your awakening devil fruit is not wrong."

"Because there has never been a so-called correct direction for the development of devil fruits."

"Or in other words, the development that can adapt to the environment and enable organisms to achieve self-evolution is the correct development direction!"
