Pirate's Talent System

The bottom of the calm zone is extremely deep.

Because there are large and even super giant sea kings living here, its average depth can be said to be the deepest sea area in the entire sea, and in this deep water, Ross is diving alone.

Due to the ability to distort light, Ross can still see far away even in extremely deep seabeds, not to mention his knowledge-colored arrogance can also be used in the sea.

Although Ross's knowledgeable arrogance is not like Helding's, relying on the thunder fruit to expand to an extremely far level, it is still no problem to cover three to 4000 meters.

In other words.

Ross's search range is a spherical shape with a diameter of three to 4000 meters centered on himself.

"This is the bottom of the sea"

After sinking to an unknown depth, Ross finally fell to the bottom of the sea. According to his estimation, the depth here is at least tens of thousands of meters.

The soil on the bottom of the sea is silent, or in other words, the entire bottom of the sea is dead silent, and no one has arrived here for thousands of years.

Rhodes did not stay on the bottom of the sea, and quickly floated up for a few kilometers, and then began a carpet search.

His movement speed on the bottom of the sea is not slow, and he occasionally encounters super giant sea kings, but because Ross's body is too small, it is not even as good as a hair for super giant sea kings, so naturally he will not be noticed .

One hour

Two hours

three hours

As time passed, Ross kept searching the seabed in the windless zone, but he found nothing. The most he saw were the Neptunes swimming around.

And just when Ross was wondering if he had moved out of this sea area as Laffitte expected, he sensed a strange phenomenon on the seabed ahead.

Chi Chi Chi

A sea king with a body size of nearly a thousand meters, when swimming past there, suddenly split its body, was torn into countless pieces of meat, and was dragged away by something.

Ross's eyes flashed, and he followed immediately.

It's some kind of mechanical thing that cuts Neptunians into pieces, and it looks a bit like a rough version of a large pacifist.

"The first generation machine for pacifists"

A thoughtful look flashed in Ross's eyes.

What cuts the sea king is not a laser or other power, but a special kind of silk thread, which seems to be extremely tough, comparable to Doflamingo's string fruit ability, the sea king hit the silk thread, Cut himself into pieces.

Following this weird machine, Ross sneaked under the sea, and finally came to a base hidden deep in the seabed mountains.

This can be regarded as a raised mountain range on the bottom of the sea, which is extremely open in Ross's perception. Due to the darkness, it is even impossible to see its overall appearance.

This location should be less than [-] meters deep from the sea surface.

Silently.

Ross followed the strange machine dragging a large pile of meat, entered the interior of the mountain range, passed through a strange cave, and came to a gate made of steel.

After a cursory glance, there is a pattern of the world government on the door, and on the corner of the door, there is the word No. [-] of the Science Force Base.

"Base Zero"

Ross watched the door open and watched the machine drag the pierced pieces of meat into the base, revealing a look of contemplation.

There may be more than one scientific base, and the one in front of us is probably the most secretive one, hidden deep in the seabed in the windless zone.

quietly.

Ross activated the ability to distort space and distort sound, and sneaked in through the door the moment the door closed.

The inside of the base is completely different from the outside

.

Outside is a silent mountain, and in the dark, without any light, full of antiquity and desolation, but inside the base, everything suddenly becomes sci-fi.

White lamps are embedded on the ceiling, making the whole base bright. The whole base seems to be made of some kind of extremely strong ore, most likely some kind of mineral second only to Hailou Stone.

"Number Nine is back."

"The quality of the meat this time seems to be pretty good."

Two people wearing the uniforms of the world government's scientific forces came out, watching the huge machine bring the meat over, with a little smile on their faces.

While they were inspecting the piece of meat, one of them was startled suddenly, feeling vaguely strange, and said to his companion:

"Did you feel something pass?"

"There's nothing there."

His companion looked around strangely and said with a smile: "Have you not slept well in the past two days? This is the bottom of the windless zone."

"Well, it should be an illusion."

The man also shook his head, thinking that this is the bottom of the windless zone, the depth needless to say, and there are Neptunes everywhere, except for the Vegapunk-style submarine that can go back and forth, this place is almost isolated from the world.

Secret base center.

In a laboratory in the deepest part, there are many strange life forms. They may look like human beings, but they have animal arms and teeth.

Some even have half of their body as some kind of crustacean, while the other half of their body is like a liger, which looks extremely terrifying.

"Is this the end of biomodification?"

Vegapunk held a report, frowning tightly.

This is not a base for making mechanical transformations, nor is it a place for making artificial devil fruits, but a base zero for biological transformations.

In fact, artificial devil fruits also originate from here. The sad used to make artificial devil fruits is also an important raw material for biological transformation.

"Uh-huh-huh-huh, but artificial Devil Fruits are already possible. Why do we have to bypass Devil Fruits and directly transform them? If we create artificial Devil Fruits, we can produce an unlimited army of ability users."

Caesar stood beside Vegapunk with arms outstretched, with an excited smile on his face.

Vegapunk put down the file and said:

"My original intention for artificial devil fruits is to break away from devil fruits and directly interpret the essence of life, but you want to return to devil fruits?"

"What are you talking about? That's"

"Stop mentioning it."

Vegapunk continued to look down at the file.

Caesar's face changed for a while, and he was very annoyed. He sarcastically said: "But your experiment, the only one that can be regarded as a semi-finished product is the vice admiral."

"Do not."

Vegapunk turned the document to the last page, narrowed his eyes and said: "His inner will is beyond my imagination. Now it can no longer be said to be a semi-finished product, it can be regarded as the only finished product."

"Your transformation was actually successful."

Caesar's eyes widened instantly.

The experimental subjects they can capture here are basically not very strong. Occasionally, some strong ones are captured. Once they are transformed, they are filled with great repulsion in their hearts, and even lose all desire to survive during the transformation process. All failed.

But just some time ago, a lieutenant general from the Navy Headquarters volunteered to participate in the transformation, and during the transformation process, he showed a strong will and desire to survive, and survived two rounds of transformation in a row.

Vegapunk's transformation has a total of three rounds, divided into three stages of improvement, and now it seems that the third round of transformation has also been successful.
