Pirates: Building High Walls Starting from the East Blue

"Are those stupid insects provoking the World Government?" Jaigolusia Satan asked in a similarly somber tone. "And those marines, they all need to be tried and enslaved. It's because of their negligence that such a huge problem has arisen!"

“Calm down, Saint Satan! I know you’re furious, but all we can do now is wait for news from Marine Headquarters. Maybe Vegapunk hasn’t left Eghardt yet?” Topman Vochuli sighed, telling Saint Satan to calm down. Then, frowning, he said calmly, “Also, have the World Government’s intelligence agencies investigate Vegapunk’s situation!”

He paused slightly, his eyes narrowed again, and he exuded a terrifying aura.

"No matter what, we absolutely cannot let Vegapunk fall into the hands of other forces!"

The words fell.

Upon hearing Topman Vochuli Saint's decision, the other four elders' eyes narrowed, understanding Topman Vochuli Saint's meaning.

Even if it means the death of this man with the world's greatest brain, we cannot let him fall into the hands of others. Vegapunk is far too dangerous. As for the so-called technology that benefits the world, gods have no need for such things!

All four nodded in agreement with Topman Vochuli's decision, including Jaigolusia Satan, who had made a deal with Vegapunk.

So what if Vegapunk isn't around?

Insects can only live like insects!

only……

The five people exchanged glances and all saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

Which force dares to challenge the authority of the World Government at this time?

Those laughable Four Emperors? Or those self-proclaimed Dark Emperors, or perhaps... the Revolutionary Army?

……

And at this time.

East China Sea, waters of the 16th Naval Branch.

Vegapunk, who had mysteriously disappeared, reappeared here, and had also woken up. He slowly opened his eyes and looked around with a puzzled expression.

Where is this place?

Just as he was looking around in confusion.

Sudden.

Suddenly everything went black, as if something was surrounding him, which startled Vegapunk so much that he abruptly raised his head, before he could even speak.

A warm voice came from in front of me.

"Welcome, Mr. Vegapunk!"

Chapter 71 Deal

"???"

Looking at the crowd surrounding him, Vegapunk seemed to remember something.

he.

They've been kidnapped!

And that guy's offer to help him switch companies was a slap on the face of the world's number one brain.

As the world's greatest scientist, Vegapunk immediately understood what was going on.

How dare someone steal from the World Government right under its nose?

Who is it?

Four Emperors?

Ambitious figures in the black market?

Or the revolutionary army?

What do you want to do?

Are they preparing to declare war on the world government?

Rubbing his brow, Vegapunk stared blankly at the young man before him. "Where am I? What do you want with me?"

"What do you mean 'capture'? It's an invitation, this is an invitation!" Shache pointed out the error in Vegapunk's words and, without hiding anything, said directly with a smile, "Also, this is the 16th Branch!"

"..."

Vegapunk completely ignored the shameless words of the guy in front of him, but...

invite?

Is this the kind of invitation you're invited to?

He hadn't even seen the person when he was hit on the head with a stick, and his head still hurts!

only.

"Branch 16?" Vegapunk looked at Shache with a puzzled expression, feeling that something was off about this place.

"Where is it? The Four Emperors' forces? Or the Revolutionary Army?"

"Neither!" Hearing Vegapunk's words, Xia Che remained quite patient in trying to recruit the world's number one scientist, and continued with a smile, "This is the 16th Branch of the East China Sea Navy!"

however.

As soon as these words fell.

Vegapunk: ...

He fell silent as he was deep in thought.

What the hell?

East China Sea Naval 16th Branch?

Even with the world's greatest brain, he was completely bewildered and couldn't figure out what was going on.

He originally thought it was the power of one of the Four Emperors, or the Revolutionary Army, or at least the King of the Black Market!

The result is now...

East China Sea Naval 16th Branch?

Has his class become that low?

They actually dared to recruit him, even a naval branch?

You have to understand, he's a scientist with the world's most brilliant mind!

Without substantial funding, how could he sustain his research?

Vegapunk stared at Shache with a dark expression and said, "Stop joking around, where exactly is this?"

"This really is the 16th Marine Division." As he spoke, Shacher shook his naval uniform and said with a righteous expression, "And I am the base commander of the 16th Marine Division, Dand Shacher!"

"..."

Is it really a naval branch?

Seeing how serious the person before him was, Vegapunk had no choice but to believe it. But at this moment, he was even more speechless. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Could this be just the surface, with other forces operating in secret? Otherwise, why would they dare to risk stealing me from the World Government?"

only.

"No!" Faced with his words, the so-called commander of the 16th Marine Division shook his head without hesitation and said, "The 16th Marine Division is just the 16th Marine Division. There are no other forces behind it."

The voice just fell.

"..."

Vegapunk, who was pondering which ambitious figure was lurking behind the scenes, twitched his lips again after hearing Shattrath's words. He looked at Shattrath speechlessly, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Really?"

"real!"

Suddenly.

"Do you guys even know what you're doing?" Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Vegapunk jumped up in anger. "How dare you, as Marines, steal people right under the World Government's nose?"

"No, it's an invitation!"

"...Does any of this matter now? Do you know who I am? Not just any force can support my research." Vegapunk looked at Shache speechlessly, sticking out his tongue, and said irritably, "Naval Branch 16? The East Blue Branch, no less. Don't you have any idea about your own power?"

"Don't worry, we know. So, what's your decision?" Xia Che snapped his fingers, and Robin, who was standing next to him, smiled and took out a document, handing it over and saying, "The benefits here are quite good. As for research funding, rest assured, we will do our best to meet your needs!"

“My research cannot be supported by a mere branch!” Vegapunk ignored Shacher’s invitation and said with a troubled expression, “Just send me back! Honestly, I paid a huge price to get the World Government to agree to some of my conditions, and now it’s all for nothing. I guess the World Government will be watching me again. Oh well, only the World Government can support my research now.”

only.

Hearing Vegapunk's words, Shacher hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Is there really no room for negotiation?"

"How can we even discuss this?"

Navy branch...don't you know your own level?

“Only the World Government can support my idea.” Vegapunk refused without hesitation, paused for a moment, and continued, “Don’t worry, I will say that this is just a misunderstanding and I will not tell the Four Parties about your affairs…” He stuck out his tongue, “Oops, I bit my tongue again, the World Government.”

Looking at Xia Che in front of him, he said, "Young man, be more careful next time you want to recruit others."

however.

"Fine!" Hearing his refusal, the so-called naval branch base commander was not disappointed, but shook his head helplessly. "As expected, recruiting you is not so simple!"

Looking at him again, she sighed deeply, "Since that's how it is..."

The words are not finished yet.

"Did you agree?" Hearing that Shache hadn't finished speaking, Vegapunk also showed a happy smile, sticking out his tongue and saying cheerfully, "Send me away now! I don't even know how many days I've been gone."

Just when he thought the guy in front of him would agree.

But suddenly.

"Mr. Vegapunk." The naval base commander looked at him with a smile again, his tone meaningful, and said, "You don't want the World Government to find out about your secret research into history, do you?"

As soon as these words fell.

"?!"

Everyone stared at Vegapunk with astonishment.

You should know that studying history... in this world, is a more serious crime than being a pirate. If the World Government finds out, the consequence will be destruction.

Especially Robin and Kuma...
