Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 475 True Artificial Devil Fruit (asking for monthly ticket~)

"Doctor, this thing can't really work!?"

On the Merry, Chihong, whose entire face was illuminated by the colorful Sinnoh glare, looked in amazement at the mysterious substance or energy that was poured into a strange container like a huge flask in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh and ask Vegapunk beside him.

Vegapunk standing next to him also had his eyes flashing with colorful divine light. As a person with the title of the world's most powerful brain, his expression at this moment inevitably looked a little dazed.

It was not until a while later that he murmured softly:

"I didn't expect... that everything would go so smoothly."

"So, this thing is the legendary thing that can turn ordinary fruits into devil fruits?"

"According to your guess, Doctor, perhaps we can call it 'willpower'?"

Chihong pointed confusedly at the unknown substance or energy that was poured into a special container above his head, and asked Vegapunk again.

The whole thing started with that press conference.

For unknown reasons, after the press conference, when Vegapunk was clearing the saved data, he was surprised to find an extremely special information signal in the server that should not have existed.

Curious Vegapunk naturally would not treat this strange phenomenon as redundant information garbage, but retrieved it and studied it carefully.

Later, he was surprised to find that all this information came from the mental fluctuation signals generated in the mental world of those players who participated in the first public beta test when they were playing the Pokémon world live.

And what's even more outrageous is...

These wave signals actually formed very vague outlines one after another in the blank areas of the spiritual space.

Because the signal is too weak, ordinary scientists may not be able to figure out anything from this information.

But who is Lao Beitou?

With a scientific research vision that transcends the world by 500 years, he is absolutely god-level in both his spirit of exploration and his hands-on ability.

After all, being able to invent an infinite energy source like mother fire, he can be considered a god to some extent.

Just like that, after a period of exploration and simulation, Vegapunk finally discovered the meaning of these mental wave signals...

It was Crimson, the legendary Pokémon in the opening animation of "Pokémon World", that flashed before the players' eyes and left enough impression on them in that fleeting glance!

From Arceus, the creator of the world, to the three sacred birds and three sacred beasts who do odd jobs...

Perhaps the accumulated mental signals vary in number, but their direction is very obvious.

According to Vegapunk's deduction, if we leave these data alone and do not intervene in the spiritual space, one day in the future...

When these mental fluctuations accumulate enough and are dense enough, perhaps the signals brought by these players' mental fluctuations alone will be enough to create real legendary Pokémon in the mental space!

This also made Vegapunk, who had a lot of imagination, think of the origin of the devil fruit in the pirate world.

According to his conclusion from the research on bloodline factors and devil fruits, devil fruits are the "unnatural" products transformed from the obsession and desire of humans and all creatures in the world for "evolution".

That is why users of Devil Fruit abilities are spurned by the ocean, which represents Mother Nature.

Same reason...

Since Devil Fruits can appear in this way, can these mental fluctuations also be utilized and made into a force that makes Pokémon real?

At this point in the research, Vegapunk did not hide anything and directly called the top leaders of the scientific research team, including top scientists such as Judge and Red, who was in charge of the scientific research team on the Straw Hat side, and expressed his ideas to them.

After hearing his guess, the first reaction of Judge and others was that it was impossible.

But when they thought that these were things that Vegapunk had researched, they couldn't help but doubt...

Could it be that this guy really developed an artificial devil fruit?

Or is it the kind that is pure natural and pollution-free! ?

Just like that, the meeting ended, and Red directly assigned a group of thugs and once again gave Vegapunk the maximum amount of resources to work on, allowing him to go all out to research what exactly this mental fluctuation brought about.

Even if we can't really turn Pokémon into something, or create a Pokémon devil fruit, this project will definitely not lose money.

Even if it is true that legendary Pokémon can only be created in the spiritual space, the worst that can happen is that we can directly clone corresponding bodies for them in the pirate world and use information transmission to extradite them from the spiritual space to the real body.

Then Red enters his own machine game world and loads some Pokémon moves on them. What is the difference between them and real Pokémon?
Of course, if it is really possible to use these magical spiritual products to create artificial devil fruits, then Red will be so happy that he will be at a loss!
Because from that time on, it is the real customized devil fruit!
Pokémon fruit?
The pattern is too small!
At that time, he can just stuff a few Ultraman, Blue-Eyes White Dragon and so on into the "Pokemon World" and add some settings casually. It's whatever he says.

In addition, since Pokémon has the power of waves and the power of Tokiwa, it should be normal for the power of magic, the power of chakra, the power of Zanpaku, etc. to appear, right?

If it really doesn't work, he can just start a few virtual games again!
"Rebirth: Building My Fire Village", "The Death Girl Living in the Closet in the City"...

It doesn’t cost much to build a server anyway.

Selling gaming helmets, gaming equipment and peripherals can not only quickly recover costs, but also make a lot of money. Why not do it?

It's just that in this way, the more stable the world is, the more people can afford to enter the game, and the more he seems to gain.

This also made Chihong involuntarily advance the plan to eliminate the World Government.

Fortunately, he finally resisted these bad temptations.

Time returns to the present.

As a large number of players poured into the Pokémon world, they saw the opening animation that was refined by Red in the mental space. As expected, a large amount of mental fluctuations immediately poured in and were directly retrieved by the program designed by Vegapunk and placed into the special container in front of them.

Unfortunately, when asked by Red whether they could be made into Devil Fruits, Vegapunk shook his head without hesitation and explained:
"impossible."

"In the final analysis, people are still too vague and unfamiliar with the concept of Pokémon, so the wishes generated from it will also be affected and mixed."

"Plus, with just this little bit of willpower, it's probably not even enough to be considered a beginner, and you don't even have the qualifications to perform an artificial devil fruit."

"That's it~"

After hearing this explanation, Chihong's tone calmed down, but he was not disappointed by Vegapunk's explanation.

After all, this virtual game that he created just for a momentary interest has already brought him too many surprises.

He was looking forward to seeing what the world would be like when enough people played the game and the willpower absorbed reached the standard Vegapunk had set.

"I'm really looking forward to it~"

Chihong sighed inwardly, and began to think, since the game is no longer a game in the traditional sense, should he pay more attention to the settings of those mythical beasts and Pokémon, and add more details?

Nintendo only needs to come up with a name and draw a skin, but he has a lot more things to consider!
"Sure enough, the first step is to significantly increase the number of players entering the game world."

"In the New World, except for the territory of Red Hair and Whitebeard, almost everything else is under the control of the Straw Hat Pirates. Red Hair and Whitebeard have been friends for many years, so it is not too difficult to develop it." "The first half of the Grand Line has the current Alabasta Kingdom as an agent, so it should not be a problem. After all, the fighting power of the 13th Gotei Squad is still not strong enough in the first half."

"It's just that... the Grand Line is ultimately just a route that is attached to this planet. It's fine for adventures and encounters."

"But in the places where the real population is concentrated in this world, there really aren't that many abnormal climates. Apart from pirates, the mafia, and a few sea beasts, there are almost no external enemies in the four seas!"

"Great! Now the next plan is clear!"

Although there is no plan to cause trouble for the World Government before Luffy fully returns, it does not mean that Red does not want to speed up the progress of this project.

After thinking for a while, Chihong suddenly opened his personal terminal, found one of the numbers and dialed it.

It’s just strange that the phone, which would normally be answered quickly, now rang for a long time.

Fortunately, Chihong’s personal terminals are all specially made, so there is no such thing as automatic hanging up due to waiting time being too long.

Just like that, five minutes later, the phone was suddenly picked up.

But before Chihong could open his mouth to speak, a lazy voice with a hint of complaint came from his personal terminal.

"Really, Lord Chihong, how come the game pods you sell can automatically bind to my personal terminal?"

"Game warehouse?"

Chi Hong was stunned for a moment, then asked with a surprised smile:

"Marshal Kuzan, don't tell me that you haven't answered the phone for so long because you were actually playing our Pokémon World?"

"What else?" Aokiji showed no shame at being caught playing games at work. Instead, he said righteously:

"After all, it is something that the pirate leader researched. As the admiral of the navy, I naturally have to investigate it myself."

"Also...what on earth is going on with you!?"

"Do you know how hard it is to encounter a wild Pokémon when Route 01 is already so crowded with people?!"

"I finally managed to snatch a Bobo, but before I could tame it, your phone called me and kept ringing in my game room. It was so annoying that I accidentally gave the wrong command and killed it."

"........."

Chi Hong was silent for a moment, then spoke:
"Sorry, in order to prevent game consoles from being shared, each game console will be bound to personal information when it is used for the first time. You know this."

"It's possible that after your personal information entered the database, your personal terminal happened to be nearby, so it was linked to your game console."

In fact, this function is mainly designed for the Straw Hat Pirates. After all, there are not many people in the entire ocean who can own both personal terminals and game cabins at the same time.

I just didn't expect to accidentally hurt Aokiji.

Although one Pidgeot is not a big deal, seeing that Aokiji loves the Pokémon game so much and he is so powerful, maybe he can contribute more wishes...

After thinking about it, Chi Hong still reminded:
"In fact, there is no need for you all to crowd into Route 01."

"In fact, the reason why those media workers never defeated the gym leader of Viridian City during the public beta was because that was the strongest gym leader in the game."

"Normally, you don't need to challenge the Tokiwa Gym. You can just skip to the map behind it."

"The Pokémon world is very vast, and the gym leaders in Deep Gray City will be set up to take care of newcomers and will not release Pokémon that are too strong."

"What did you say!? Why didn't you say that earlier!?" On the other end of the phone, Aokiji, who was usually calm and composed, suddenly let out a sharp scream like a big bird with its feathers blown up.

The next moment, there was a bang from the personal terminal, as if he had thrown the personal terminal directly onto the table.

Upon hearing this, Chi Hong shouted loudly:
“Wait! Wait!!!”

"You don't want to take the cheats I gave you and go back to play games right away, do you?!"

"if not!?"

Aokiji's distant voice was heard from the other end of the line, and the sound of the game cabin door opening was heard.

Chi Hong realized something and immediately became upset, and threatened directly:

"Kuzan, you better get back here and do it! Otherwise, I will use my administrator privileges to prevent you from entering the Pokémon World for a week."

Swah——

All the sounds of operation stopped abruptly in an instant.

A second later, Aokiji returned to his personal terminal again, sat upright and said:

"So...is there anything else you want to say?"

"Nonsense! Otherwise I would have come to chat with you when I was bored!" Although Aokiji couldn't see it, Akahaki rolled his eyes and immediately said what he was thinking:

"The navy seems to be a little too idle recently."

"The Straw Hat Pirates' coffers are a little too full again."

"In order to avoid inflation, I plan to find something for your navy to do?"

"What's the matter?" Aokiji asked curiously.

Chi Hong replied calmly:

"I have decided to sponsor you 3000 billion Baileys as military expenses. What you need to do is, in the next six months, completely eliminate the pirates and bandits who rob the people in the four seas, including those officials and navy who use force to coerce the people, and even sea beasts and natural disasters."

"At the same time, we will build more naval bases in the world, and have the navy and the revolutionary army in the navy form two departments to manage them respectively, so as to ensure the stability and peaceful life of the people in the world as much as possible."

"Do you understand the above?"

"........."

Aokiji on the other end of the phone was thinking about something and suddenly fell silent.

It was not until a while later that he suddenly spoke in a calm but not dull voice:

"Red, why don't we confront the World Government and tell them that the Navy has completely submitted to the rule of the Straw Hat Pirates."

"otherwise……"

"I really don't feel comfortable taking this 3000 billion Baileys military budget~"
