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

Chapter 377 Robot Tyr
In seven years, a lot of things happened in the world.

For example, in the year 1502 of the Kaien calendar, the Infinite Pirates held the second kendo tournament, and the number of participants was much greater than the one ten years ago.

At that time, almost all the famous swordsmen in the world came to participate, but this year's kendo competition, big pirates like Golden Lion and Rayleigh did not continue to participate.

Apart from the Red Earl and Li Yuan, there were no other famous and powerful swordsmen participating in this kendo competition.

Needless to say, the final result of this session was naturally the duel between Li Yuan and Red Earl. There was no surprise in the final result, as Li Yuan won the first place.

After this session, Li Yuan also announced that he would no longer participate in kendo competitions, but the first place winner of every kendo competition would be qualified to challenge him!
As soon as these words were spoken, swordsmen all over the world were excited.

Because if Li Yuan continued to participate, then other swordsmen would have no chance of getting first place. What's more, the person who got first place would have the qualification to challenge Li Yuan. This made swordsmen all over the world unable to resist this temptation!
Having said that, for most swordsmen, they have no hope of reaching the finals, so this change is completely irrelevant to them. They need the kendo competition as a platform to fight with different swordsmen from all over the world, and then use it to improve their kendo skills.

One year ago, the princess of Fishman Island, Shirahoshi, was born. At the request of the Infinite Pirates, Shirahoshi was transferred to Flower Island in the Infinite Sea. Her mother, Otohime, also came to Flower Island to take care of Shirahoshi and lived there for a year.

During this period, Li Yuan also specially asked the cadres guarding Fishman Island to solve some hidden dangers on Fishman Island.

So after Otohime lived on Flower Island for a year and returned to Fishman Island, no one tried to assassinate her, allowing her to survive safely.

Over the course of seven years, the World Government has gradually recovered some of its vitality, but at the same time, many kingdoms in the four seas have been overthrown by the Self-Guard Army, causing panic in the kingdoms throughout the four seas.

The Infinity Pirates also took the opportunity to control a number of member states and non-governmental member states. The kingdoms controlled by the Infinity Pirates were very stable and no rebellion occurred.

The current World Government has apparently recovered some of its vitality, but under the influence of the Infinity Pirates, its internal structure can be said to be riddled with holes.

The Four Seas is no longer the back garden of the World Government, it is also the back garden of the Wuji Pirates. The Wuji Pirates have mastered the Calm Belt navigation technology. In addition, the Four Seas have been expanded to the Red Earth Continent through the network laid out by the Four Seas over the years, and there is the Quicksand Guild spread across the Four Seas and the Grand Line. The Four Seas are unobstructed for the Wuji Pirates.

During these seven years, the Wuji Pirates have been expanding secretly and unscrupulously, and their sphere of influence and number of people have reached an extremely exaggerated level.

On the surface, the Wuji Pirates already have 700,000 members, and secretly the number has reached 2 million.

If other forces wanted to support such a large number of people, they would not know how much money it would cost, but for the Wuji Pirates, it is easily affordable.

If it weren't for Li Yuan's pursuit of excellence, this number would have skyrocketed three to five times!
The Promise Pirates:
"Captain, look, this is the combat robot we developed. It has gone through all kinds of experiments and tests and has reached the standards perfectly. It can be mass-produced and put into combat!"

Soros and Caesar rarely got together and invited Li Yuan to see their experimental results.

After Li Yuan came here, he saw a huge robot that was eight meters tall. The appearance of this robot was similar to that of a human, but it was not similar to a human in many ways.

For example, it does not have two eyes, but a band of eyes surrounding its head, its feet are huge and resemble dragon claws, and its hands are similar to those of humans, except that there is an empty muzzle in the middle of the palm, etc.

It can be said that this robot is full of technology and looks very shocking.

"Tell me, what exactly is this robot like?"

Li Yuan asked curiously.

"Shh, Captain, let me start by saying that I designed the weapon system of this robot. In terms of long-range attacks, it can fire laser cannons like Prince Faraday's, from its mouth, hands, and feet."

"The laser cannon has three firing modes: instant firing, charge firing, and ultimate firing. The instant firing laser cannon has the smallest power, but is very practical. The charge firing requires charging for two seconds to fire, and is three times more powerful than the instant firing. The ultimate firing requires charging for four seconds, and is the ultimate move that unleashes all the energy in the body. The power depends on the amount of energy in the body. Once this move is fired, the entire robot will completely lose its ability to move due to lack of energy."

"In close combat, it can condense into a laser lightsaber to fight the enemy. The key is that both hands can change their shapes. They can become claws, hammers, and swords. Its best close combat mode is to condense a lightsaber with one hand and use the most primitive attack with the other hand."

"Even inside the robot, there are biological and chemical weapons and seastone weapons installed to deal with different enemies."

"Except for the weapon system, the materials of its entire body were made by me based on the materials of the robot Emmett. The hardness of the materials made is even harder than Emmett's own materials. Even the cadres of the Wuji Pirates cannot destroy it with a full-strength attack!"

Caesar said proudly.

In other scientific research, Caesar may not be as good as Soros who possesses the Brain-Brain Fruit, but in terms of weapons, Caesar is still very confident.

It was precisely because Soros had so many things to study that after Caesar shared the responsibility of weapons, he did not continue to work hard on weapons research.

“Well, very nice design!”

"Soros, you tell me what's next!"

Li Yuan nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Soros.

Now Soros' head has been cut off. Just like Vegapunk in the original book, his brain capacity is too large and the physical brain cannot carry so much knowledge. So he put his head outside and built a huge technological brain like Vegapunk in the original book, using signals to connect the body and the brain.

Even Soros, like Vegapunk in the original novel, created six robots to help him conduct experiments.

However, according to Li Yuan's reminder, the six robots were just robots. They had the ability to conduct experiments, but they did not have any emotions or human intelligence.

And all their data will be transmitted through Soros's brain, so there will be no hidden dangers.

"Captain, in addition to what Caesar said, the robot is equipped with a generator inside. When the energy is less than 80%, the generator will work to provide energy for the robot. At the same time, there is also backup energy storage inside in case of emergency."

"In addition, it is equipped with a solar energy converter, which can collect sunlight and convert it into the energy needed by the robot. The two charging methods have greatly solved the energy problem of the robot." "The robot's feet can not only fire laser cannons, but also be used as a flying propulsion force. In other words, our robot can fly!"

"The robot's head is equipped with a 360-degree detection device that can lock onto the enemy's position from all angles."

"The core combat instructions of the robots are the integration of data collected after many battles with members of the Wuji Pirates. It can be said that every robot will be a veteran of hundreds of battles. In the future, the combat instructions of the robots can even continue to be updated, making their combat methods more and more powerful. In the end, they may even be able to predict the actions of their opponents."

"The core control instructions of the robot, the first sequence is the captain, the second sequence is the three ladies, and the third sequence is me and Caesar. In the future, we can continue to add third sequence control instructions based on the user's situation."

"There is a self-destruct program inside the robot. We can remotely control each machine to self-destruct at any time. Of course, the self-destruct program can only be executed by your first-order command, Captain."

Soros also briefly talked about other characteristics of the robot.

“Is there anything else that can be improved on this robot?”

Li Yuan asked.

What he needs are the most elite robots. He doesn't want to produce too many transitional products. If he wants to produce anything, he wants to produce robots in their final form.

"The only areas where this robot can be improved are in terms of materials, energy, and weapon systems."

"The material is the strongest material that Caesar can produce at present, and the energy is also the most powerful energy at present. The weapon system relies on energy. As long as the energy becomes stronger, the weapon system will also become stronger."

"So there is nothing that can be improved for now, and there will be opportunities for improvement in the future."

Soros said.

"In that case, let's start producing according to the standard of this robot. The specific number of robots to be produced will be determined by Yadina based on the situation of the Wuji Pirates."

Hearing this, Li Yuan nodded and said that such robots are much more powerful than those clones and can be used in many battles.

Li Yuan rarely produces clones now. The biggest use of clones at present is confidentiality.

For example, many of the Infinity Pirates' secret laboratories and the operation of the mirror world are all run by clones. As for combat, clones are not needed at all because the Infinity Pirates have never lacked basic combat power like clones.

The combat power of the robots in front of us can be said to be mid-range, and the strength of each one should be similar to that of an ordinary navy vice admiral.

Li Yuan paid more attention to robots because they were insensitive to pain, fatigue, fearless of death and could be mass-produced. The only drawback was that they consumed a lot of resources. Even the Wuji Pirates had to produce according to the actual situation instead of just mass-producing.

This is why the world government in the original work did not produce a large number of pacifists, but only used pacifists in key places.

Moreover, the robot in front of Li Yuan is much stronger than the pacifist in the original book, so the resources required for its production can be said to be an astronomical figure, not to mention the various subsequent maintenance guarantees.

"Captain, this robot doesn't have a name yet, why don't you give it a name!"

Soros said.

"Since it is a combat robot, its appearance will inevitably bring endless wars. Let's call it Tyr. According to the production serial number, the one in front of us should be the first one, so we call it Tyr 1!"

Li Yuan thought for a moment and said.

"By the way, you guys have made an invaluable contribution to the research of the Tyre, so Caesar, your salary this year will be doubled, and I will also give you half a month of paid leave to rest well."

"Soros, you too, don't always stay in the lab, go out with Caesar and relax more!"

Li Yuan Li Yuan said with satisfaction.

Li Yuan was still a little worried about Soros, fearing that he would ruin his health. After all, this guy was a complete scientific madman who never left the laboratory for a year or two.

Therefore, Li Yuan also assigned him a personal doctor to check his body every day to prevent this guy from dying suddenly.

If that were the case, Li Yuan would feel that he had lost a lot!

"Wash, cluck, cluck, cluck, thanks, Captain!"

"Soros, just come out with me and have some fun. I promise you'll live a wonderful life of drunkenness and dreams!"

After hearing what Li Yuan said, Caesar suddenly became excited. What he liked most was this kind of paid vacation life. He could play to his heart's content and get paid for free. This was simply a holiday specially made for him!
After saying this, before Soros could say anything, Caesar pulled him out.

Although Soros has strong scientific research capabilities, he is far inferior to Caesar in terms of strength. After all, Caesar ate the Swallow Fruit.

Caesar is very adept at developing the Swallow Swallow Fruit. He strengthens his body by swallowing various materials, making his current body become more and more exaggerated.

If he had gone into battle, he might have really become a cadre of the Infinity Pirates, but unfortunately this guy is a scientist and doesn't like fighting.
