Chapter 315: Coveted Technology

~8 min read 1,472 words

Rob Lucci walked forward, wearing a sweat shirt, dressed as a shipwright, with a white pigeon perched on his shoulder.

"We have met once." Rob Lucci spoke, his expression flat.

Just at this moment, Su Xiao's expression changed.

Two more people appeared outside the warehouse. Judging from the aura perceived, one was Kaku disguised as a shipwright, and the aura of the other person had never been seen before. Su Xiao guessed it was Blueno.

This warehouse was surrounded. Thinking of this, Su Xiao flipped his palm, and several alchemy bombs appeared in his hand, ready to detonate the bomb in Kalifa's body at any time.

Although surrounded, Su Xiao was not panicked. As long as the sound of an explosion rang out, the people from the Galley-La Company would be startled. At that time, Rob Lucci and the others could only retreat temporarily or ignore the exposure and kill Su Xiao.

Perhaps Rob Lucci also understood this point, so he didn't show any signs of making a move.

"All four of you are exposed in my perception. Are you preparing to die with me today? This is... very stupid for you who are secret agents."

Kalifa was a secret agent, and Rob Lucci and the others appeared with her, so the identities of the three were self-evident. Rob Lucci didn't show surprise at Su Xiao seeing through their identities.

Rob Lucci made a gesture, and the secret agent quartet gathered in the warehouse. Blueno, who was walking at the end, even closed the old warehouse door tightly.

"Take out the bomb in Kalifa's body."

Rob Lucci stood in front of the three, seemingly wanting to negotiate with Su Xiao.

"State your purpose first."

Su Xiao sheathed his sword and sat on the wooden crates, staring down at the few people, keeping vigilant all the time.

Rob Lucci pondered for a while, nodded, took out a very small Den Den Mushi from his top, and threw it to Su Xiao.

Taking the Den Den Mushi, Su Xiao examined this small snail. This creature could actually communicate over long distances; the technology tree of the Pirate World was very skewed.

"Dial it, someone wants to talk to you."

Hearing Rob Lucci's words, Su Xiao pondered for a while and finally chose to pick up the receiver on the Den Den Mushi.

"*Poro, poro, poro... *"

Waiting for over ten seconds, the Den Den Mushi emitted a *click* sound, and the head of the Den Den Mushi that had probed out of the shell changed, seemingly simulating the face shape of a certain person.

"Moshi, moshi, can you hear me?"

An somewhat arrogant voice came from inside the Den Den Mushi.

"Yes." Su Xiao answered.

"You are that guy named Byakuya, right? Let me tell you, limit yourself to..."

"Shut up, Spandam." The arrogant voice was suddenly interrupted by this cold, chilling voice.

"What right do you have to order me? Our positions are the same... It hurts... I was wrong... Don't hit my face."

Noisy sounds came from inside the Den Den Mushi. After a long time, the cold, chilling voice spoke.

"Hello, I am Zero."

The person said a somewhat strange name.

"Zero?"

Hearing this name and associating it with the opponent's CP department identity, Su Xiao suddenly thought of something.

"Don't care who I am. You only need to know one thing: you are now a person of the World Government."

Su Xiao raised an eyebrow. The opponent was unexpectedly strong.

"Oh? You think these four people can keep me?"

"Of course not. You possess that kind of bomb, which can attract the attention of others after exploding."

The answer inside the Den Den Mushi was firm, seemingly not believing that Rob Lucci could surround Su Xiao.

"Byakuya, from the East Blue, age 25 to 30, born in Bayano Village of the East Blue, formerly served as a guard for the Goa Kingdom, killed the King of Goa and fled to the Grand Line. After sailing for a few years, encountered a shipwreck, and finally arrived in Water 7."

Zero recited Su Xiao's information like a family heirloom. Su Xiao didn't feel surprised; the opponent was the intelligence department of the World Government, so it wasn't strange that they could investigate these.

But what the opponent didn't know was that whether it was the name or the age, they were all fictitious.

"And then? What can you do knowing my background?"

A light laugh came from inside the Den Den Mushi, but this laugh made people not dare to compliment it, just like a low laugh emitted by an old witch.

"Of course, it can't do anything, but are you prepared to keep drifting like this? I have investigated. Apart from killing that king, you have no criminal record. I can only think of one possibility for this situation: revenge."

Su Xiao didn't make a sound. He had already roughly understood the opponent's intention, and this situation was a good thing for him.

"Join the CP department of the World Government. Temporarily become an external member. After a period of review, you will be able to become an official member of the CP department."

Su Xiao was stunned. The opponent actually invited him to join the CP department directly. Weren't the personnel of the CP department trained from childhood?

"Would the CP department really recruit a guy of unknown origin like me?"

"Under normal circumstances, no, but the higher-ups value that kind of bomb of yours very much. That kind of bomb has strategic significance. You are a special talent, so you are treated specially."

Su Xiao suddenly realized. It turned out that the World Government had taken a fancy to the alchemy bombs he made.

When learning alchemy, the Reincarnation Paradise had once prompted: 【After you master alchemy, some scientific research camps in the derived world will prioritize recruiting you. If alchemy reaches a high level, it is highly likely that large forces in the derived world will kidnap you.】

The World Government is a scientific research camp, and they have specialized scientific research troops under their command.

"It seems that my technology for manufacturing bombs makes you very heart-moved."

Getting Su Xiao's clear affirmation, Zero's tone changed, not as cold as before.

"The bombs you manufacture are very secretive, and the structure is not complicated. If mass-produced, they will have huge uses."

The recruitment continued.

"Mass-produced? This idea is not bad, but don't even think about it."

"How?"

Zero's voice inside the Den Den Mushi was somewhat unkind.

"Alchemy bombs can only be manufactured by me personally. It is absolutely impossible for others. It doesn't matter if I give you the formula; you can try it."

The inside of the Den Den Mushi fell into silence.

"Devil Fruit ability?"

"No, this is a secret technique. I studied it for over ten years. The King of Goa once wanted to obtain this secret technique, but he failed in the end. My family passed away, and the inheritance was broken. I only know how to manufacture it, and cannot pass it on to others."

"That is to say, the alchemy bombs you speak of cannot be mass-produced?"

The voice inside the Den Den Mushi was somewhat disappointed.

"Not necessarily. As long as you give me sufficient raw materials, I can mass-produce them myself. Of course, this also requires support from all aspects of the World Government."

"Really?"

"Really, but it's still the same sentence: this requires resource support from the World Government."

"I need a specific value. How many of that kind of bomb can you manufacture per day?"

Su Xiao pondered for a while. If the World Government could provide him with materials and potions to restore mana, he could manufacture an alchemy bomb every forty seconds. Assuming he manufactured for sixteen hours a day, theoretically, he could manufacture 1440 alchemy bombs a day.

"With sufficient resources, 1300 bombs a day is no problem."

The breathing inside the Den Den Mushi was clearly rapid. Alchemy bombs were different from ordinary bombs; not only was the power great, but they were also easy to hide, and what was even more magical was that they could be remotely controlled, which made people covet them even more.

"You are now an official member of CP0. I will send someone to pick you up immediately."

The output of over a thousand bombs per day clearly made Zero heart-moved. You must know that only a dozen alchemy bombs were needed to blow up a building, and this kind of bomb could also be remotely controlled, which made people covet it even more.

"Zero... sir, I don't seem to have agreed to join the CP department yet."

With the technology the opponent coveted in his hand, Su Xiao naturally had to blackmail them. ===== CHAPTER 316 =====
