Pirates: Build a high wall from the East China Sea.

Chapter 69 Recruitment
That's right, from the very beginning his target was the so-called world's number one scientist, the user of the superhuman Brain-Brain Fruit - Dr. Vegapunk.

Everything we do is in preparation for this!

After the birth of Our Lady of Flame, this scientist, who was said to be at least five hundred years ahead of ocean technology, has become a figure who can influence the world situation.

Especially this scientist... He has done research in biology, physics, medicine, weapons, and even devil fruits that is far beyond the world's level. He is a very versatile scientist.

Xia Che was still quite envious of this world's number one scientist.

If you succeed, you will have everything!
only.

He is already a member of the World Government. How could it be so easy to recruit him?

The result was unexpected...

The Transparent Fruit and the Silent Fruit actually appeared in front of him? !

Just go for the big one.

Quietly go recruit Vegapunk.

As for whether Vegapunk will accept it, that is not something he can choose. He should just recruit him first.

Speaking of which, the technological development in this world is quite unbalanced. In some places, technology is still in the steam age, while in some places... even submarines have been invented.

And legend has it... there was once a country with highly developed technology, but it later disappeared for unknown reasons. Even Vegapunk highly recognized this.

only.

It's not that easy to recruit Vegapunk.

Even though the Celestial Dragons on Marijoa are still using human-powered elevators, the World Government also attaches great importance to technological development.

Therefore, the monitoring of Vegapunk must be very strict, and it is not easy to bring people over from the World Government.

I believe that even if the World Government wants Vegapunk to die directly, it will not let anyone else take him away.

So, I want to take Vegapunk away quietly...

This is an opportunity!
Only chance!
When Vegapunk arrived at Egghead Island, before Egghead was completely transformed, he stole the person away while no one was paying attention!

I believe that the World Government at this time would not have thought that there would be someone so bold as to steal people right under the nose of the Navy? !
That is why he sent the Moklo Bear to guard Egghead in advance, waiting for the most appropriate opportunity and then taking action immediately!
Admiral Kizaru of the Navy does not guard Vegapunk all the time, and Vegapunk also has his own secrets, and he cannot let the Navy watch him all the time.

At the same time, in order to ensure that he would not be discovered, he also asked Big Bear to change into a pair of shoes, either bigger or smaller, to try to improve all possible loopholes and avoid being discovered by the World Government.

Xia Che came to an island that had been prepared long ago.

It is located next to the 16th Navy Branch, and it is also a deserted island.

Of course~
It's just the surface. The underground has been hollowed out long ago, and all the seastone collected in the past few years has been used here.

He looked up at the sky and muttered to himself, "I don't know if I can succeed!"

Everything is ready, all we have to do is recruit the people.

……

And just as Shache thought, after the explosion in Punk Hazard, Vegabank's research base was moved to Egghead with the help of the navy.

At this time, Egghead was scattered all over the snow-covered shore.

"Vegapunk, I have met your request. You can use this island as you wish from today, but don't forget that you promised the World Government that your research on artificial devil fruits failed last time, but the World Government has not punished you yet!"

"I see!"

An old man with gray hair, a huge tongue sticking out of his mouth and extending to his abdomen, long thin legs, wearing a white research coat with "SSG" printed on the back and a floral shirt, and a giant head shaped like a light bulb, looked at the Den Den Mushi in his hand, stuck out his tongue and said, "That's a failure, and it gives me a headache! But don't worry, I will resume my research as soon as possible!"

"That's good!"

With a "beep" sound, the Den Den Mushi returned to its normal appearance.

Vegapunk put away the Den Den Mushi and sighed helplessly, "What a headache! That's a very dangerous invention! I would rather study something that can change the world!" But after muttering to himself, he looked up at the island in front of him where it was snowing.

At this moment, Egghead was still covered in snow and desolate everywhere, but looking at this island, Vegapunk's eyes seemed to be shining. The snowy island in front of him seemed to have turned into an island full of science fiction and the future in his eyes.

This room will be at his disposal from today on, and the World Government has also agreed that as long as he produces results, the World Government will give him some freedom so that he can study what he likes in his own time.

Even though he was still under surveillance, Vegapunk was already very satisfied.

After all, with his wisdom and technology, only the World Government, the number one power in the ocean, has the funds and ability to help him realize his dream.

At this time.

Just as Vegapunk was thinking about how to transform the island.

"Phew, it's really cold here! It's completely different from Punk Hazard." A tall, thin man with black curly short hair, sunglasses, and a stubble on his face, wearing a yellow and white striped suit, said in a slow tone, "Really, Vegapunk, why did you choose this place? You're not planning to secretly cooperate with pirates in this remote place, are you? Please spare me this kind of trouble~"

“Shut up, Borsalino! I will abide by the agreement with the World Government.” After hearing Borsalino’s words, Vegapunk said helplessly, “I don’t want to die before I can realize those ideas that keep popping up in my mind and giving me headaches, and…”

Looking around with glowing eyes.

"I will transform this place well. Soon, I will show the future of mankind here."

"Oh, is that so? Then I will take a good look at every corner." After seeing Vegapunk also gave his own assurance, Kizaru stood up slowly, adjusted his hat, put his hands in his pockets, and walked towards his warship. "Then it's time for me to leave. I will leave a navy ship here. If you have any problems, you can tell them. If you need me, you can also call me. Of course, please try to be as troublesome as possible."

Although he is the commander of the naval science forces, as the admiral of the naval headquarters, it is impossible for him to stay here forever.

Of course, if an accident happened, he would be able to get here quickly with his abilities.

He held up his hat and said calmly, "Be careful!"

Having said that, without waiting for Vegapunk to say anything, he walked towards his warship.

"That's what makes you annoying!" After hearing Borsalino's meaningful words, Vegapunk complained in a bad mood.

But after a while, he stopped caring and turned his head excitedly to look at Egghead in front of him, "Where should I start? Forget it, let's just look around today!"

He ignored the navy stationed behind him. As long as he stayed here honestly, he believed that those guys would not stop him.

Looking at the island that he was about to transform, Vegapunk was quite happy at the moment. He muttered something while looking at it, "Hehe, the weather is still a bit cold. Maybe the temperature needs to be improved. It will be warmer so that it is suitable for people to live. Also, this island is quite large. It seems that the transportation needs to be well designed."

As he spoke, many incredible inventions came out of his mouth.

After an unknown amount of time, when he felt that he was some distance away from the dock, Vegapunk's eyes flickered slightly, and his unique mouth showed a meaningful smile, "Oh, yes, there is also history... It seems that there was a highly developed technology in ancient times, which is really exciting!"

He muttered quietly, "We still have to be careful. We can't let the World Government find out about this."

however.

The voice just fell.

Sudden.

Vegapunk felt the surroundings become quiet, as if everything was isolated.

"Don't worry." A simple and honest voice sounded from behind him, "I'll help you change companies right now!"

"???"

anyone?

Change company?
Vegapunk was stunned, and before he could figure out what was going on.

Suddenly he felt a pain in his huge head, as if something had hit him hard on the head, and he felt dizzy and had a cold.

The moment he closed his eyes, there was only one sentence in his mind...

Who on earth dared to knock on the head of the world's smartest person?
