"Dor, you know more about the underground forces than I do. Who do you think is most likely to take over Doflamingo's position?"
"It's hard to say, but the most likely person should be that man."
Dole frowned.
"Gilder Tezzolo!"
"Golden Emperor?"
"Yes, Tezulo's career is on the rise, and his influence is growing day by day. Even the Celestial Dragons like to visit his ship."
"Indeed."
Loya nodded slowly.
Whether it is personal influence or building sales channels, Tesoro has unique advantages, and in terms of business ability alone, he is superior to Doflamingo.
Tezolo's "Gulan Tezolo" is also very suitable to be a transit station, and it is an "absolute sanctuary" where the navy cannot take action.
"I'm going to Eigerhead."
Loya put down the newspaper, stood up and left.
Egghead is right next to G-14 and can be reached in a matter of minutes.
"Lu Yun, follow me."
"Okay, senior."
An hour later, the warship docked at the port of Egerhede.
As a vice admiral of the Navy Headquarters and with the responsibility of guarding Egghead, it is not a problem for him to go to the island and take a look.
“Has construction started yet?”
Loya looked up.
There is an open eggshell floating in the clouds above the island, which looks like it is full of the breath of the future from afar.
The island is also full of high-tech style, with equipment everywhere that cannot be seen outside. Compared with them, the laboratory during the previous training camp was so shabby that it made people cry.
Lu Yun led the way with ease and seemed to be very familiar with the place.
"Senior, come here!"
"what is this?"
"It's the dressing room!"
Lu Yun pushed Luoya into the room and pressed a button. Luoya's clothes disappeared with a "bang" and then he changed into a futuristic space suit.
very light.
Loya tiptoed and became more interested in Vegapunk.
"Ah, the clothing style has changed!"
"Damn Dr. Pervert!"
Lu Yun also changed into a futuristic suit. There was nothing wrong with the upper body, it was very slim-fitting, but the lower body only had shorts and gravity boots.
Luo Ya's eyes moved downward involuntarily.
Tsk, give Vegapunk a thumbs up.
Feeling Luo Ya's gaze, Lu Yun's face turned red, and he pretended to be calm: "Senior, let's go see Dr. Garpunk, he also wants to see you."
"it is good."
Taking the elevator, the two quickly arrived at the second floor of the island cloud. As soon as they walked out of the elevator, a pink-haired girl with green scales all over her body ran over hurriedly.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
The girl screamed and rushed towards the elevator, as if she wanted to go to the next floor.
However, a burly giant suddenly appeared in front of the girl, and with a "bang", the girl fell into the giant's arms.
Luo Ya's eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't see the giant's movement trajectory at all, and he couldn't even detect his observation Haki.
It's like teleporting!
"Bartholomew Bear!"
If I'm not mistaken, this gentle giant who coaxed the little girl back with a wry smile is Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
And the identity of the little girl.
Bonnie.
"Sorry for causing you trouble."
Big Bear apologized politely, then took the girl's hand and left. He didn't look like the "tyrant" as rumored at all.
Loya gave the bear a deep look.
He now has another mission, which is to inspect the work of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, but he has no plans to cause trouble for the Seven Warlords of the Sea for the time being.
With Doflamingo stepping down, other kings of the Shichibukai will undoubtedly be more vigilant, and it will be somewhat difficult to find evidence of their crimes.
Even for Crocodile, it is not so easy to reveal his flaws. Nico Robin is a reason to arrest her, but that woman is also good at disguise, so it is not easy to find her.
Moreover, the distance is too far.
"senior?"
"Well, let's go."
Luo Ya withdrew his gaze and followed Lu Yun.
Soon, the two came to the outside of a laboratory and could see the scene inside the laboratory through the transparent glass.
Among the busy experimenters, a super huge head is particularly eye-catching, which makes people doubt whether it is possible to live a normal life with such a big head.
The world's number one scientist, Vegapunk!
"You are here to see the doctor, right? I have already seen the entry and exit application. The doctor is working. Please wait a moment."
A man wearing a red bellyband and with an unusually sturdy build came up to the two of them.
"I'm the captain of the science corps, Zhan Taomaru. I'm the man with the best defense and the tightest lips in the world. Please give me your guidance!"
"Captain Zhan Taomaru, long time no see."
Lu Yun greeted with a smile.
Zhan Taowan looked at Lu Yun, and a smile appeared on his serious face: "It's you, it's been a long time since I last saw you. I heard that you are a navy officer now, I'm really envious."
"You're going to be a marine in the future."
Lu Yun cheered Zhan Taowan up.
The two chatted aside.
Loya stood by the window, staring at the busy Vegapunk.
In the battle with Kaido, he once again felt the weakness of his own power. Even with the domineering aura, there was still a huge difference compared to Kaido's domineering aura.
Both quantity and quality are too different.
Moreover, when Kaido fought him, he did not use the power of the Blue Dragon, otherwise the gap between them would be even greater.
If Kaido didn't want him to be his son-in-law, killing him would be a piece of cake. This feeling of powerlessness was unbearable for him.
In less than two years, Luffy will be out to sea.
At that time, the world's wind direction will also undergo earth-shaking changes. If you want to occupy a place in the navy, you must truly reach the strength of an admiral within the next two years, and even rival the Four Emperors.
He needs Vegapunk's help!
Chapter 193: You only regret not having enough money when you need it, make money!
Institute reception room.
Vegapunk sat on the sofa, his head, which was as big as a giant's, almost touched the ceiling, making it quite inconvenient for him to move.
Lu Yun couldn't help but complain: "Doctor, it's only been two years since we last met, and your head has grown bigger again!"
"I'm troubled too!"
Vegapunk was deaf and tongue-tied, and was quite troubled by his big head, but he had already made a plan.
"I was just about to cut it off."
“Ah, so it can be cut off?”
The girl with glasses widened her eyes.
"Of course, this research institute was built to store my brain, and I also plan to create a few clones so that future research won't be so hard."
Vegapunk revealed his plan without reservation. He looked at Loya with excitement and inquiry in his eyes.
"Black-haired Lieutenant General, I heard Lu Yun mention your abilities. Can you show them to me?"
"can."
Loya pulled out Yuqiri and cut his arm.
Soon, a transparent light emerged from the wound, and the rolling flesh and blood flowed backwards at a speed visible to the naked eye, returning to its state before the injury.
It was he who asked Lu Yun to tell Vegapunk about the power of time hidden in the world. If he wanted to get Vegapunk's assistance, he had to show some sincerity.
He also wanted to find ways to use the world.
In addition, Vegapunk is trustworthy. This old man's exploration of the blank hundred years will sooner or later push himself to the opposite side of the World Government.
“It’s the power of time!”
Vegapunk stared at Loya's arm, extremely excited.
Time is the realm of "God"!
There are countless scientists who want to understand the mystery of time. He is the same, but they have no clue at all.
According to his guess, there might be someone among Loya's parents or ancestors who ate the To-To-To Fruit and passed on the ability through blood.
The probability of this is extremely slim.
But from a scientific point of view, everything is possible.
Vegapunk took out a bunch of strange instruments and looked at Loya with sparkling eyes, like a pirate seeing treasure.
"Can you do it again?"
"."
“It’s amazing, do it again!”
"."
"Come again!"
"Be careful or I'll beat you up, Big Head!"
Luo Ya's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Didn't it hurt when he bled himself?
"Sorry, sorry!"
Vegapunk apologized quickly.
Loya sighed and asked, "Is there a way to actively control this power?"
"I don't know yet, but if you want to manipulate the power of time to affect the real world, even if it's just a short pause for a second, it will probably require unimaginable energy."
Vegapunk couldn't be sure. This was the first time he had seen the power of time and he needed to study it carefully before he could draw a conclusion.
"Black-haired Vice Admiral, you came here for the devil fruit this time, right?"
"Yes."
Luo Ya nodded and expressed his thoughts, but did not mention the Thunder Fruit. If there were other top fruits, he would also be able to accept them.
Vegapunk thought for a moment.
"I haven't conducted any experiments on transferring abilities, but it is theoretically possible. It just requires some research effort."
"No matter how special the fruit is, it should be possible to reproduce it as long as you are willing to spend money and time."
