The Black Prince of Pirates

"A gorilla turned into a monkey, Caesar, do you think this is reasonable?"

Eleus murmured in a low voice, not loud enough, but it was enough for Caesar who was standing next to him to hear it.

but,

Caesar felt as if he had seen a ghost at this moment,

No, there are Lingling Fruits and Soul Soul Fruits. It is not impossible to see ghosts. In comparison, the artificial Devil Fruit turned into a real Devil Fruit in just 1 minute... This is comparable Things like ghosts are even rarer, simply unheard of.

That is to say, he didn't know that Elvus also helped his subordinates upgrade ordinary animal devil fruits into ancient varieties, but he would know it sooner or later when he stayed under Elvus for a long time.

"Your Highness, you... no, you, how on earth did you do it?"

As a scientist,

He is not one of those ignorant attendants under Eleus.

Even if it is a Phantom Beast... Phantom Beast, using the excuse of Phantom Beast to explain it is very reluctant. However, the Phantom Beast Fruit of Elus is a kind that has never been recorded by the World Government. Perhaps , really has some kind of miraculous ability to interfere with artificial devil fruits?

Caesar was struggling to death.

He plucked up the courage and tried to ask.

The results obtained--

"That arm looked like an orangutan's arm just now, but now it looks like an ape's... It's very strange! There is a big gap between orangutans and apes... Caesar? Caesar? Hey, what are you doing? What? Did you hear what I was asking you? "

Leng Ruoshuang's knife glare came over.

The soul pressure as heavy as the ocean is faintly visible.

Caesar shrank his neck and did not dare to ask any more questions. He turned to look at the old pirate lying on the ground, thought for a while and said: "The ability of the devil fruit is unique. Duplicate fruits will not appear in the sea at the same time. After the original fruit owner dies, such fruits will continue to appear..."

The experiment on the artificial Devil Fruit was led by Vegapunk. He initially extracted the genes of a single organism and injected them into the fruit embryos. However, he noticed a problem and a pattern in the middle of the experiment, that is, there would be no duplication at the same time. The fruit of this is a pattern discovered over hundreds of years.

Then,

Will artificial Devil Fruits be subject to this rule?

If the Devil Fruit you want to create has already appeared in the sea, can this Devil Fruit be created?Vegapunk has done a lot of research on this, but unfortunately, the artificial Devil Fruit itself is extremely difficult to create, and this experiment was not verified in the end.

After successfully creating a Devil Fruit, Vegapunk terminated this research due to various reasons.

Another point is that in the middle of the experiment, Vegapunk failed repeatedly due to injecting the genes of a single organism, and saw no hope of success, so he made another change. Instead of injecting the genes of a single organism, he collected a large number of biological genes and mixed them together. , injected into the fruit embryo together.

But this has still experienced many failures, and the only success cannot prove that the method of injecting mixed biological genes is the only way. However, Caesar now uses the method of injecting multiple mixed biological genes to create artificial devil fruits.

"...I once read some records about animal devil fruits in the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book, and there happened to be records about branches of the human fruit. Not counting the phantom beast species and the ancient species, there are eight in total."

"Judging from the information collected so far, two of the eight Devil Fruits were clearly eaten by people. The chimpanzee form and the gorilla form are both branches of the Human Fruit. The users of these two Devil Fruits have abilities They are both navies, one is in Paradise and the other is in the Western Sea.”

"Although there are another five that have not been eaten by anyone, they have been discovered and stored in different places. Only the Renren Fruit, which is known as the most useless human form, is missing."

Caesar's explanation was very long-winded.

However, Elus did not have any dissatisfaction and listened very seriously. This knowledge was something he did not understand. The Devil Fruit Illustrated Book was different from the Devil Fruit. It was compiled by humans based on their past experiences. Different forces have their own collections. Different devil fruit illustrations.

There is no doubt that the World Government has the largest collection of Devil Fruit illustrated books in history. The accumulation over the past 800 years is extremely rich. It not only contains a large number of Devil Fruit titles, but also records the data of the most outstanding group of ability users in each era. , with these things, as long as the same fruits are collected, the efficiency of cultivating masters can be greatly improved.

These data are only kept in the hands of the World Government and are used to cultivate CP0. Even the Navy does not know the existence of this data and only holds a copy of the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book.

It was this copy that Caesar had seen.

Of course, even the World Government dare not say that the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book they compiled contains all the Devil Fruits in the world. Caesar only provided Elus with a possible guess based on the information he had.

"Perhaps, the Human Fruit in human form was eaten or collected by others. Your Highness, you used... that special power to transform the artificial Devil Fruit into a real Devil Fruit, and Human The branches of the human fruit have no space, so they can only transform into similar forms.”

Such a long list of explanations,

To sum up, it is because of the uniqueness of Devil Fruit that there are no two identical Devil Fruits at the same time, so the appearance of the old pirate changed from an orangutan to an ape... The above explanations are all speculation, and there is no truth. Any reliable evidence can prove the correctness of Caesar's speculation.

but,

After listening to this, Eleus felt that this explanation was quite reliable.

"The uniqueness of Devil Fruit...interesting!" Elus narrowed his eyes, remembering the changes of several attendants such as Eschbach, Eschbach's common species, Lizard Fruit, Como Multiple giant lizard form, evolved into the ancient species, Dragon Dragon Fruit, Earthquake Dragon form under the influence of Bengyu, and several others are similar.

Judging from those several evolutionary processes, perhaps the inference of the uniqueness of Devil Fruit is not wrong.

"Caesar, this guy belongs to you, you can do whatever you want with it, dissect it, raise it... My only request is to see a 100% successful artificial devil fruit next time, even if it's a semi-finished product, it doesn't matter. As long as you don’t turn into that weirdo who only laughs.”

Eleus reached out and patted Caesar on the shoulder.

Caesar cleverly took the initiative to suppress the elemental transformation. Seeing this move, Eleus smiled silently, took his hand off Caesar's shoulder, and Eleus took Fran and left here.

North Sea.

The storm had just subsided, but the clouds on the horizon had not yet cleared away, and the air was filled with moist water vapor.

On the sparsely populated island, the villagers have gone out and started repairing the houses that were ravaged by the storm. Several lines of green smoke came out of the chimneys, rising crookedly into the sky under the weak sea breeze. If you take a ride When Qing Yan reached a high place, he could see a strange-looking large ship docked on the other side of the island, on the coast that was covered with rocks and was not suitable for ships to dock.

Different from the usual ones with pointed heads and tails that resemble bamboo leaves, the bow and stern of this big ship are rounded, like a giant shell. There is a huge snail at the bow. Yes, that’s right, this big ship is actually a snail. A huge snail, and what's even more amazing is that the snail's back shell carries buildings like palaces and towers. On the black sails and banners pulled up on the buildings, there is the sign of the number '66'.

There is also a black number '66' on the forehead between the two tentacles of the snail.

This is--

The symbol of the Kingdom of Germa.

The back shell of the snail boat opens a portal,

A huge snail that was much smaller than this snail boat, but was equally big, was put down from the boat. It did not sink into the sea, but just floated on the sea, and headed towards the island at a very fast speed. The back shell of this giant snail is equipped with very comfortable luxury seats, and a man and a woman are sitting on it and talking.

"Is this the contact point of the revolutionary army?"

"Yes, this is a place agreed upon by the Revolutionary Army. It took me a lot of effort to contact these timid guys. They are all like mice. It's really annoying to find them."

"Sounds like a trap!"

"Maybe! But...my sister, are you afraid?"

"Afraid? We don't have such luxurious feelings. My brother is not cute at all."

Sister, to be precise, she is Vinsmoke Reiju, the eldest daughter of the Vinsmoke family and the eldest princess of the Germa Kingdom. This princess, who is just 20 years old this year, has an elegant smile and pink mid-length hair. Her hair covered her right eye, but there was no smile in her left eye, which was as beautiful as amethyst.

"Haha, when you say that, I miss that idiot Sanji a little bit!" Vinsmoke Iji, the eldest prince of the Germa Kingdom, had a cruel smile on his face.

As reformers, they don't have boring emotions like fear.

Even death cannot scare them.

The giant snail easily crossed the reef area, climbed up the steep cliff, broke into the forest, frightened countless birds, and broke large trees along the way. The broken branches and leaves fell down in a mess, making Yi Zhi waved his right hand in displeasure, "Spark·Spin."

The hot and shining flames were released from the palm, destroying the fallen branches and leaves extremely roughly.

If the storm had not just receded, the moisture in the air was extremely rich, and the branches and leaves of the trees were wet and had not yet dried up, Iji's move alone would have caused the raging fire to completely engulf the forest.

"Too rough."

Reiju stared forward, the Vinsmoke family's iconic curly eyebrows twitching slightly, and said with a smile: "Look! My brother, you are in trouble."

In the forest, a figure flashes,

Before Iji could retort, the angry shouts reached the ears of the two siblings.

"Damn it, is this how the prince and princess of the Kingdom of Germa come to visit?" The young man wearing a top hat rushed out of the forest and glared at the two siblings sitting on the back of the snail with angry eyes. "you······"

The words could not be finished.

The snail, which is huge and can climb mountains and cross seas, rushes over with incomparable courage.

"Good good!"

The young man wearing a bowler hat, Sabo, stopped his unspoken accusation. For such stubborn villains, words have little effect. Only fists can make them understand what politeness means. .

He inserted the pure steel water pipe in his hand into the soft ground, opened the stand, and took a stance.

"Dragon Claw Fist."

The five fingers of his right hand were gathered together and bent, imitating the posture of a three-toed dragon claw. Looking at the huge snail rushing in front of him, he punched the snail's neck with a lightning-fast punch, and a circle of ripples visible to the naked eye started from the point of impact. Spreading out like water waves, the huge snail stopped in a matter of seconds.

it,

After passing out, the two long tentacles hung down softly.

Sabo's heart was still not hard enough. He did not aim at the snail with his fingertips that could poke holes in the steel. Instead, he curled his fingers and hit the snail's neck with the protruding joints, beating this incredibly strong soft-bodied creature. Fainted.

Otherwise, his punch could directly kill the snail.

The giant snail suddenly braked, but the huge inertia failed to throw off the two people sitting on the snail's back.

The prince and princess of the Vinsmoke family sat firmly.

but,

Neither of them dared to underestimate Sabo who stopped the giant snail with his bare hands. They knew best how powerful this giant snail was, which was cultivated through scientific means. The big trees that were knocked down by their roots along the way were the most powerful. Good proof.

But Sabo stopped the giant snail.

And only one hand was used.

The Revolutionary Army is indeed an organization that dares to challenge the world government.

"Hello, young man, I'm so sorry. My younger brother is a complete bad boy. Destroying trees is already a very kind act for him." The princess of the Vinsmoke family jumped off the snail's back. Coming down, the pink combat uniform outlines her graceful and charming figure, and the cape behind her is as beautiful as butterfly wings.

"Reiju, are you provoking me?"

The arrogant and cold-blooded prince looked at his sister with cold eyes, and his violent killing intent was definitely not a show.

"Does a ruthless machine also know what provocation is?"

Sabo: "Uh..."

The scene in front of him made Sabo fall into a sluggish state. He was already ready to teach the prince and princess a lesson. In the end, he knocked out a giant snail, and then the prince and princess began to jeer at each other. The atmosphere was bad. It makes people suspect that the two siblings will fight in the next moment.

This situation was completely unexpected by Saab.

but,

He now had a vague feeling that dealing with these two people would definitely not be an easy task.
