Chapter 311
Therefore,
Luo Xing's attitude toward Vegapunk was remarkably gentle.
Luo Xing smiled and said:
"May I ask one thing? Mr. Vegapunk clearly knows my stance, so why express a willingness to defect? Do you not fear the World Government's pursuit?"
The Beasts Pirates, where Luo Xing resides, are now as incompatible as fire and water with the World Government.
In the foreseeable future, a war that will shake the world is bound to occur.
Vegapunk's choice to defect to Luo Xing is equivalent to joining the Beasts Pirates' camp.
In the future, the World Government will absolutely take measures against him that will not stop until death.
A hint of helplessness appeared on Vegapunk's face as he said:
"The World Government will eventually make a move against this old man."
"Oh?"
Vegapunk explained:
"My lord Luo Xing should know about the Ohara incident from over twenty years ago. The books left behind by the Ohara scholars were not destroyed but secretly transported to the Giant Kingdom of Elbaf."
"I have read all these books through to the end and have almost learned the truth of the Void Century."
"And through years of research, I have already come close to uncovering certain secrets of the Ancient Kingdom."
"The World Government, the Five Elders, will not let me go."
Luo Xing nodded and said, "I see."
The Ohara scholars' books were transported to Elbaf.
The one who did this was Sauro, who was frozen by Kuzan back then, the savior of Nico Robin's childhood; that person did not die!
Furthermore, Monkey D. Dragon of the Revolutionary Army was the mastermind behind the scenes.
The relationship between Vegapunk and Dragon also has deep roots...
"Mr. Vegapunk is indeed of extraordinary wisdom, having seen through the World Government's nature long ago. Then I need not hide it from you; according to my intelligence, the person the World Government sent to eliminate you is already on the way."
Vegapunk's heart gave a start.
The assassin is already on the way?
Do the Five Elders want to make a move against him so quickly?
A feeling of relief naturally surged in his heart.
Fortunately, fortunately, he decisively chose to defect to Luo Xing.
Otherwise,
even if Luo Xing did not kill him, he would definitely not survive today.
Because Vegapunk could be certain that the person the Five Elders sent to kill him was absolutely a top-tier powerhouse.
Defecting to Luo Xing's side was truly a wise move.
And judging from the fact that Luo Xing knew the Five Elders sent an assassin,
Luo Xing must also have made arrangements within the Navy and even among the high ranks of the World Government!
What profound foresight!
Regarding the future struggle for supremacy between the Beasts Pirates and the World Government, Vegapunk is becoming increasingly optimistic about the Beasts Pirates.
After a moment of internal sighing, Vegapunk said:
"My lord Luo Xing, since the World Government has already set its sights on this place, should we leave immediately?"
Luo Xing waved his hand:
"No need. You have managed this Future Island for so many years; it would be a pity to abandon it."
"It is an extremely suitable place to serve as the Beasts Pirates' scientific base."
"I will send troops to guard this place."
Luo Xing took out a door.
Vegapunk watched with curiosity.
He saw figure after figure, all looking exactly the same, walking out from inside the door.
Each one was burly, with an aura that was extremely terrifying.
"Any Door! Is this the Any Door? It is too great! Too incredible! It is truly a creation of the gods!"
Vegapunk paid no attention at all to the cloned soldiers summoned by Luo Xing from Germa.
In his eyes, there was only the Any Door.
Vegapunk, extremely excited, extended a trembling hand and stroked the doorframe of the Any Door as if it were a precious treasure.
For a scientist devoted to research,
an invention beyond his capabilities is the most precious thing in the world!
262. Green Bull is terrified, screaming in agony while clutching his head, shaken by Conqueror's Haki!
Luo Xing summoned thousands of cloned soldiers from the Any Door.
These clones were not only physically strong; each had eaten an artificial Devil Fruit and received Monster Cells, making their strength no less than that of pirates with bounties in the hundreds of millions.
With these people guarding Future Island, as long as the Navy Headquarters does not send two or more Admiral-level powerhouses,
Egghead can be considered impregnable.
However, compared to the safety of his own situation, Vegapunk was clearly more concerned about the Any Door.
"A creation of heaven, a creation of heaven!"
Vegapunk touched the Any Door and said excitedly:
"My lord Luo Xing, could you teach me how to study this Any Door? I very much want to know what its principle truly is!"
Luo Xing agreed.
Originally, he intended to hand the Shanrenyi Sect over to Vegapunk, so that Future Island and the other territories of the Beasts Pirates could all be connected entirely through the Shanrenyi Sect.
As for whether Vegapunk would research the principle of the Shanrenyi Sect and even construct one himself,
Luo Xing was not worried in the slightest.
After all,
the Shanrenyi Sect was not a product of this world.
Even if Vegapunk was a genius of unparalleled talent, wanting to understand a product from another world was still far too fanciful.
High in the sky several thousand meters away from Egghead.
Green Bull was flying at high speed.
"Well, if I utilized the ability of the Seraphim X-Bear, I wouldn't have to fly so tiredly."
The Seraphim are the superior replacements for the Pacifistas, Vegapunk's ultimate weapon research.
Each Seraphim replicates the abilities of the original Seven Warlords of the Sea and also possesses Kaido's racial traits, with a pair of black wings on its back.
The X-Bear Green Bull mentioned refers to the Kuma Seraphim.
The Kuma Seraphim also possesses the ability of the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi, capable of bouncing Green Bull to Future Island in an instant.
The reason Green Bull did not do so,
was because Vegapunk's authority over the Seraphim's commands was superior to his own.
After all,
Vegapunk is the inventor of the Seraphim.
If Green Bull brought a Seraphim, wouldn't that be providing Vegapunk with an ally?
"Huff, huff, huff~~"
Green Bull panted a few times and gazed into the distance:
"But we are finally about to arrive."
"Uncle Vegapunk, do not blame me for being ruthless!"
Green Bull and Vegapunk had known each other before, and their relationship was even quite good.
But compared to that slight bond with Vegapunk,
Green Bull was more loyal to the Celestial Dragons.
Since the Five Elders ordered him to kill Vegapunk, Green Bull would absolutely execute it without hesitation.
Loyalty to the Celestial Dragons, maintaining the World Government's rule—this is Green Bull's justice!
