One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 213 Do you want to defeat Vegapunk?

Time passes day by day.

Inside Hoenn Fortress, the scene of the Empress losing to the idiot is played out every day, almost becoming a regular occurrence. The charm of the Love-Love Fruit has absolutely no effect on this certain fool.

"Love is like a tornado!"

"I will absolutely not admit defeat!"

"Yamato!!!"

"Thunder gossip!"

On one of the walls of the fortress, another human-shaped hole appeared.

The commander-in-chief's office.

Goode stood by the window, sighing silently.

This woman is so stubborn, always thinking about marriage. Can't she be a little more flexible and get on the bus first and then buy the ticket later?
Ha ha.

I'll find an excuse to go and check on them tonight!
"Lord Goode."

Chikara staggered into the office, carrying a stack of documents.

"Lord Goode, battle reports have arrived from the front."

"Ah."

Goode sat down at his desk and began reviewing the situation at the front.

Since making contact with Germa, he has sent all his cadres, including Hairdine Runti, out to fight against the non-member states in the North Sea.

Many member states purchased large quantities of weapons from Derma and were eager to start a war at any time.

"Is there any movement from the navy?"

"No."

Chika shook her head.

"Lord Goode, Navy"

The navy seemed to have completely given up on fighting the beasts, and even when warships encountered them, they pretended not to see them.

The warships would only be deployed when the Beasts' warships passed by the member states, but even then, it was only for surveillance.

"They've learned to be smarter."

Goode was not surprised.

According to the World Government's policy, it would not easily start a war with the Four Emperors, but the threat they posed was too great, forcing the World Government to take action time and time again.

The strength he displayed in his previous battle with Garp was enough to make the World Government completely abandon the idea of ​​war, after all, the Beasts not only have him, but also their big brother Kaido.

Even the Five Elders wouldn't dare to provoke the Four Emperors so easily!

Not to mention two!
With his current power, if he were to lead his trusted subordinates to break away from Groudon Corporation, he could very well become the last of the Four Emperors.

Goode flipped through the intelligence reports and quickly frowned.

"Revolutionary Army".

Revolutionary Army activities are present all over the world, with strongholds mainly in non-member countries. The large-scale campaigns of the Beasts have led to conflicts with the Revolutionary Army.

"Captain of the Union Army, Raven."

"Chief of Staff, Saab."

"And Bartholomew Kuma!"

Goode flipped through the intelligence reports, his brow furrowing slightly.

Runti started fighting with the revolutionary army.

The Shichibukai Kuma also appeared and repeatedly helped the Revolutionary Army, hindering the Beasts' actions.

It looks like he'll have to go there himself.

"Plop plop plop~~"

The Den Den Mushi (snail phone) started ringing.

Chikara answered the phone, listened to the report, and then looked at Goode: "Lord Goode, Lord Quinn and the others have arrived."

"Okay, I'll go over immediately."

Fortress, reception room.

The three sat on the sofa, exchanging cold stares.

Why are you all here?!

"That's what I wanted to ask too!"

"Mwahaha, it's been over thirty years since MADS disbanded, hasn't it? Seeing your faces makes me want to vomit!"

"I can kill you right now, Quinn!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~ Let's just poison you both to death!"

Quinn activated his transformation mode, his neck, tail, and other body parts splitting open and turning into mechanical structures, with lasers flashing from the muzzle of his cannon.

Judge changed into his combat suit, and his electromagnetic gun sizzled.

Caesar was shrouded in smoke and filled with a large amount of toxic gas, and he was holding a container of highly poisonous chemicals in his hands.

The battle is about to break out.

More than thirty years have passed, and their strength and bounties are no longer equal, but even Caesar, who is at his worst, is confident that he can kill Queen and Judge.

How could I possibly admit defeat!
"Do you want me to kill you?"

Just as the three were about to start their battle, a voice that seemed to come from the underworld entered their ears, making them feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, and cold sweat instantly soaked their backs.

The three of them simultaneously abandoned their fighting spirit and sat down like obedient children.

I didn't even dare to take a breath.

Goode snorted and sat down in front of the three of them.

"Good brothers!"

"Lord Goode!"

"Mr. Goode!" the three of them quickly greeted.

Quinn swallowed.

After not seeing him for many days, Goode's aura was completely different. He even felt like he was facing Kaido's anger.

monster!

If you act recklessly, you really will be killed!

Goode's expression softened slightly.

"I have gathered you here today to rebuild MADS."

"impossible!"

The three of them blurted it out at the same time.

This is the only one I don't want!
"Good brothers, just tell me what you want to research. These two guys will only hold me back; I don't need them at all!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~ Don't compare these two pieces of trash to me, I'm a genius evil scientist!"

"These two guys who only know how to tinker with viruses and make modifications are complete idiots. The power of technology should be used for weapons!"

The three of them mocked each other.

Back in their MADS days, they fought each other more than once in their struggle for the perennial runner-up position.

No one agrees with anyone else.

Goode's eyes were slightly cold.

"I'm not discussing this with you!"

"."

The three of them shut their mouths at the same time, cold sweat pouring down their backs.

Goode, expressionless, took out the design drawings.

"Take a look first, this is what I'm going to make."

"This is?"

The three exchanged a glance and simultaneously peeked at the design drawings, wanting to know what Goode was planning that required their cooperation.

Soon, the contempt in their eyes vanished, replaced by disbelief and shock.

"Vegapunk!"

As top scientists, they knew better than anyone that only Vegapunk could create such a world-changing invention.

Based on the Lunaria race, the ultimate android warriors were created. Even just looking at the design drawings, they could foresee how terrifying the finished product would be.

Just like its name.

Seraph!
“That’s right, this is indeed Vegapunk’s latest research result.”

Goode nodded, his eyes sharp.

"Can you build it?"

"."

The three exchanged a glance and nodded simultaneously.

The theory behind the blueprints is complete, but even with the blueprints, it would be difficult for them to create a Seraph on their own.

The process is too complicated and involves bloodline factors; even a small mistake can lead to drastically different results.

However, it's definitely possible if we work together.

Although they do not acknowledge each other's abilities, they are very clear about each other's research capabilities.

Apart from that freak Vegapunk, no scientist is better than them!

"very good!"

Goode's smile blossomed.

"Seeing this design, you should understand that Vegapunk is developing Seraph, and this will be your only chance to surpass him!"

"Beyond Vegapunk!"

The expressions in the three people's eyes changed.

Vegapunk stood like a mountain in their way, and no matter how amazing their research was, it all paled in comparison to Vegapunk's dazzling brilliance.

They really hate them!

Vegapunk is their common enemy!

"If the Seraphim you create are stronger than Vegapunk's Seraphim, it means you have surpassed him!"

Goode is presenting a fallacy.

However, all three nodded at the same time.

"Absolutely right!"

Vegapunk is so powerful that even geniuses like them can only look up to him. Therefore, even if they are only slightly better than Vegapunk, it is enough to prove that they are no worse than Vegapunk!

"Besides the Seraphs, there are some research projects that you need to complete."

Goode continued to produce design drawings.

Vegapunk gave him many good things, including a "Sky Dome" system that could be used to adjust the island's weather.

Hoenn Fortress, Kuja, Research Institute.

He built many important facilities within the doldrums, and the ability to adjust the weather would be of great help to him.

"Therefore, the new MADS is established!"

"Keep it up, everyone!"

"I look forward to the day you surpass Vegapunk!"

Two chapters today. I went back to my hometown for the May Day holiday. I drove for most of the day and was completely exhausted. My brain just couldn't keep up.

I'll update more after the May Day holiday.
