One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 244 Experimental Project
After finishing the work, Li Yuan brought Xia Qi to the laboratory, where Stussy's clone was.

Unfortunately, the original character Stussy had already run away before Li Yuan arrived, and the Quinn in the original book also ran away.

According to those scientists, the two men had already fled before the riot occurred.

No one knew what method they used to hide from the people guarding outside and they disappeared quietly into the laboratory.

"There are actually people in this world who can research and develop human clones, and even succeed!"

When she saw Stussy, Xia Qi sighed.

She knew Stussy. They had worked together in the Rocks Pirates. They knew each other, but they were not familiar with each other.

However, seeing Stussy's clone now, Xia Qi felt very emotional.

"Yes, it's still a very successful clone. Although it's a clone, it has emotions just like a human."

Li Yuan said.

He is now thinking whether to release Stussy's clone and let her work for him. After all, Stussy's working ability is still very strong in the original book.

But in the end, Stussy remained loyal to Vegapunk's wishes, which made him a little hesitant. After all, if Stussy knew that Vegapunk was harmed by him, he would definitely betray him, there is no doubt about that.

"Husband, since she was created by Vegapunk, let's release her after Vegapunk arrives."

Xia Qi obviously knew Li Yuan's concerns.

The Vegapunk she was talking about was the Vegapunk that would be loyal to Li Yuan in the future, not the current Vegapunk.

"Okay then, I'll listen to you!"

After hearing Xia Qi's words, Li Yuan felt that it made sense, and he did not lack these few years.

O'Hara has a group of scholars who are pursuing ancient history. They are not afraid of hardships and want to explore what happened in the blank hundred years of ancient history.

Among them, Dr. Clover saw the World Kendo Tournament held by the Infinite Pirates on the news. He learned that the Wano Country occupied by the Infinite Pirates had existed for more than 800 years and had been closed to the outside world until the Infinite Pirates occupied it.

So Dr. Clover led many scholars to Fishman Island, wanting to go to the Wuji Sea in the New World, and then to Wano Country. They even wanted to meet Li Yuan and learn about the history of Wano Country, so that they might be able to find relevant stories about the blank hundred years.

"Dr. Clover, are we really going to the territory of the Infinite Pirates? That is the sea ruled by one of the most powerful pirate groups in the New World!"

Nicole Olivia said with some concern.

"It's okay, Olivia. I've already learned about it. Although the Wuji Sea is a sea area ruled by pirates, as long as you abide by the rules set by the Wuji Pirates, no pirates dare to commit crimes in the Wuji Sea. It can be said that the Wuji Sea is the safest sea area in the New World."

"The captain of the Wuji Pirates is a very wise pirate. The seas he rules are very peaceful and safe. Almost no one dares to cause trouble in the Wuji Sea, so we don't need to worry too much."

Dr. Clover said.

"Then how are we going to get from Fishman Island to the Infinite Sea? There are many pirates along the way from Fishman Island to the Infinite Sea. If we encounter pirates, we will have almost no power to resist."

Olivia continued to ask.

"Don't worry, I've already found out. Fishman Island is the territory of the Wuji Pirates. Every once in a while, a merchant ship from the Wuji Pirates will come to Fishman Island to transport some of the goods that Fishman Island needs, and also transport the goods to the Wuji Sea."

"As long as we pay some Bailey, we can let the merchant ship of the Wuji Pirates escort us to the Wuji Sea."

Dr. Clover said confidently that he was well prepared before coming here, instead of just coming here with a rush of enthusiasm and without caring about anything. That was not what a scholar should have.

Caesar was a playful guy who spent money like water. In just seven days, he visited all the brothels in Wano Country and spent all the 500 million berries he had as bribes from the Infinite Pirates as well as three months' salary.

Even Judge was led astray by Caesar, and there was only a little Bailey left on his body.

In the end, the two guys returned to the laboratory with dark circles under their eyes and their bodies were thinner.

"Which flower girl drained you two?"

Li Yuan was a little shocked to see the appearance of Caesar and Judge. These two guys were not strong in physique, lacked energy, and yet indulged themselves in lust excessively without any self-control.

"Not just one, but many. I'm not bragging, Caesar, but all the beautiful girls in Wano Country."

Caesar was still in shock. He thought they were both scientists and wanted to show off his achievements, but when he saw Li Yuan, he was choked with words!
"Good fellow, what a good fellow, he is indeed the audacious fellow in the original novel who embezzled research funds to live a life of luxury!"

Hearing Caesar's words, Li Yuan exclaimed in his heart, "Wow, this guy actually did something he had never done before!"
"Captain, it's you. You didn't even tell us you were coming so we could pick you up!"

When Caesar saw Li Yuan, he immediately put on a fawning face.

"I don't care about your private lives, but you have to work when you need to work, and produce results when you need to produce them, otherwise don't blame me for deducting your wages."

Li Yuan said calmly.

He is not the kind of person who exploits his employees. He is more open to capable people. As long as they produce results, everything else is fine. "Don't worry, Captain. We are all people with strict scientific qualities!"

Judge straightened his body and said.

"This is your research project, take a look!"

"Gaj, your research project is the study of bloodline factors. The first goal at the moment is to clone humans. You don't need to clone people with emotions, you just need to clone people who obey orders."

"Caesar, your research is about devil fruits. I want you to develop a technique that allows dead things to eat devil fruits. This aspect is also closely related to bloodline factors. You can discuss this with Gagedo when the time comes."

"As for the funding, you can calculate it and report it to me later. As long as it is reasonable, I will approve it, but I will give it in batches. I want to see progress and results every time."

Li Yuan said.

"Captain, are there any standards for cloning?"

Judge asked first.

"Of course the stronger the better."

Li Yuan said.

"In this case, we need a strong sample. The stronger the sample, the stronger the clone will be."

Judge looked at Li Yuan with burning eyes. His most perfect target was Li Yuan, the strongest member of the Wuji Pirates. If he could use Li Yuan as a sample, he had no idea how powerful the clone would be!

"I'll find you a powerful sample, so don't bother with me!"

Seeing Judge's look, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel scared. He would not use himself as a sample, but he could use Barrett as a sample. After all, Barrett's physique was also very strong. He was the strongest in the Wuji Pirates except for Li Yuan.

"Also, this is the result of Vegapunk's research on the life design diagram. I'm handing it over to you, but you are prohibited from leaking it."

Li Yuan then handed over the research results written by Vegapunk himself to Caesar and Judge. Their research projects were all related to the life design diagram.

"Life Blueprint!!"

After hearing Li Yuan's words, both Jiazhi and Caesar's eyes lit up.

Although they appear to be dissatisfied with Vegapunk on the surface, they are very convinced in their hearts. After all, they cannot research out the results of Vegapunk, and being able to obtain Vegapunk's research results is a scientific advancement for them!
"Okay, study hard. I'll come here every once in a while."

After saying that, Li Yuan ignored the two guys who were watching Vegapunk's experimental results carefully, and turned to Yumaz's laboratory.

"Yumaz, I have mobilized twenty scientists for you. Next you will conduct experiments on communications."

"What I want is a technology that can crack the Den Den Mushi signal, and be able to intercept and monitor the content of Den Den Mushi's communications."

"At the same time, we need to research another signal that is different from Den Den Mushi, and then we can make our own communication equipment. I want to replace Den Den Mushi in the Wuji Pirates."

Li Yuan said.

He had wanted to do experiments in this area for a long time, but he had never had the time to find a scientist who was truly skilled in this field to help him. Although Yumaz could do it, he was in charge of many experimental projects and had no time to do it specifically.

Now that we have two top scientists, Caesar and Gage, who are willing to take over the work from Yumaz, it is just right for Yumaz and other scientists to do this kind of work.

Den Den Mushi is always a hidden danger and must be resolved quickly.

"Captain, which experiment should we do first?"

Yumaz asked, Li Yuan said too much at once, he needed to ask about the priorities.

"Let's first conduct an experiment to crack the Den Den Mushi signal, so that I can receive all the signals from all the Den Den Mushi in the Wuji Sea, and constantly monitor these signals to see if there are any factors that are unfavorable to the Wuji Pirates."

"Then there is the experiment of intercepting the signal, followed by the experiment of replacing the Den Den Mushi signal, and finally the invention of a communication device that can replace the Den Den Mushi."

"I have some ideas for a device to replace Den Den Mushi."

Li Yuan and Yumaz elaborated on their ideas in detail, but how to implement them specifically was up to Yumaz and his team to figure out.

"Captain, I understand. Just leave it to me. I'll be able to show you the results in half a year at most."

Yumaz said confidently that he is no longer the small scientific researcher he used to be. Now he can be called a great scientist, so he should have this confidence.

"Well, I'll wait for your good news!"

Li Yuan smiled and said that he liked people who were full of confidence.
