The most courageous pirate hunter

Quinn, smoking a cigar, discussed the boy's transformation, which is currently divided into three phases.

The first stage is the little boy, the second is the big boy, and the third is the old boy.

In pursuing explosive power, it is also necessary to find a way to compress the volume to the minimum.

In addition, there are other weapons projects; in short, they are very busy.

"You two are in charge of the light-speed spaceship and space jump!"

After Quinn finished speaking, he looked at Caesar and Vegapunk.

"We have already reached one-tenth of the speed of light, but space jumps are still under research."

"By the way, have any of the probes that were launched found?"

In recent years, they have launched many probes into space in an attempt to find any habitable planets.

"No."

"The universe is too vast, with countless galaxies. Even if life existed, it wouldn't exist in our galaxy."

"Perhaps, as the BOSS said, there might be another world inside a black hole."

"With our current technology, we cannot enter a black hole to explore it."

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"

"We will all live forever, and we will have plenty of time to study technology in the future, so all those goals will be achieved."

Chapter 477 [Regeneration, Artificial Paramecia-type Devil Fruit]

"Marshal, it's now confirmed that Lieutenant General Onigumo is dead."

"Even the Pluto warship disappeared."

Navy Headquarters.

The harbor was filled with Pluto warships.

Other powers would find it a luxury to own even one of these ships, but the navy has many.

"Haven't they figured out how he disappeared yet?" Sakazuki sat at the back of the office, smoking a cigar, still with that same expressionless face.

"No."

"Vivian card of Vice Admiral Onigumo had been moving for the past six months until it burned out two days ago."

"Based on the investigation, it is very likely that the long-lost Monarch organization did it, because the Vivre Card points to the sky."

The intelligence officer reported.

"Jörmungandr!"

Sakazuki's face was grim. Monarch had been gone for five years; they were definitely up to something.

It seems that, just as Crane guessed, the Monarchy's headquarters are located on the legendary Sky Island.

It's similar to the Golden Lion.

New world.

Deep within the research lab on the floating island of Egherd.

"Incredible."

"Boss, you really are a ruthless person."

"Can the rebirth of life be so profound? I can't even imagine."

At this moment, Caesar, Queen, Judge, and Vegapunk all looked at the scene before them with shocked expressions.

"Jie Jie~"

"Five and a half years, I've finally met my requirements. To go further, I'll need more time."

Hermes, without batting an eye, tore off his own left hand, causing a large amount of blood to spurt out, with bits of flesh floating in the air.

The next moment, an unbelievable scene unfolded: the blood on the ground began to flow back, and the cells from the severed arm began to climb and entangle together like blood threads. Then, in the blink of an eye, the arm was completely healed.

Hermes can control any part of his body that is split off for a short period of time.

Even if stabbed in the heart and shattered into pieces, Hermes can quickly regenerate by multiplying cells.

It has reached the point where severed limbs can regenerate.

This means that many fatal wounds are no longer fatal. To kill Hermes, one must constantly inflict fatal wounds. Only in this way can Hermes' physical strength be exhausted, thus preventing his cells from regenerating.

"incredible."

"No one has ever developed life return in this way before, and they've succeeded."

Vegapunk was moved; he thought this man was a fighting genius with an imaginative mind.

Who would have thought that life return could be developed in this way? In the future, perhaps life return alone could achieve the state of physical immortality.

All that's needed is for cells to constantly metabolize.

"Boss, you shouldn't be human anymore!"

Judge frowned as he watched Hermes' experiment on returning life, feeling that he might be able to make further progress in the field of cloning.

“Normally speaking, this is indeed beyond the scope of humanity, but from a biological and scientific perspective, what I am doing should be considered an evolution of life.”

"It can also be said to break through the limitations of the human body."

"It has been proven that this path is feasible. If we continue to evolve and regenerate in this way, we can achieve physical immortality and rebirth from a drop of blood."

"With each step forward, strength, defense, speed, and other qualities will experience a leap forward."

Hermes was in a good mood, and there were still many mysteries of the human body. As long as he studied them to a certain extent, he was sure that other abilities would be born.

For example, lineage factors.

Hermes had thought of vampires, creatures that were said to be able to turn living beings into their servants by injecting their own blood into them.

This is of great research value.

So I need to find some time to capture and study the Lonely Red.

A thought came to my mind.

Hermes' body rapidly changed shape, and a pair of fleshy wings appeared on his back. Then, hair quickly grew on his back, and he soon transformed into an angel.

Then a pair of bull horns grew from its forehead, its body rapidly grew larger, and its limbs turned into sharp claws, making it a veritable demon.

There are also all sorts of strange creatures, including lions and tigers.

Caesar and the other three were dumbfounded.

Can this still be done?

“It’s ever-changing.”

"Recombinant cells".

"This is the right way to return life."

"I reckon only someone with a wildly imaginative mind like the BOSS could have come up with this; normal people would never even think of it."

"It's confirmed, Boss, you've become a god!"

"Yes, that's how God should be."

"The title of King of Hunters is a thing of the past; Hody Jones is more suited to earn it in Dressrosa."

"What is it?"

"The Creator God!!!"

"Hehe~ It should indeed be distinguishable now."

Hermes was in a better mood than ever before.

These five and a half years were not wasted, mainly because I absorbed the memories of Kaido, Vegapunk, and others.

Without these things, he couldn't have made such great progress.

The time it will take is definitely not five and a half years, but very likely fifty years or even longer.

Therefore, knowledge is very important.

The only drawback is that even after absorbing those memories, he didn't awaken Conqueror's Haki or the ability to foresee the future.

Do I really lack the demeanor of a king?

In truth, I don't value Hermes, the Conqueror's Haki user. What good are his kingly qualities? How many have fallen to him?

The one who survives to the end is the true victor.

In contrast, Hermes's dream was to foresee the future. However, in the past five and a half years, in addition to his research, he had also been training in the direction of Observation Haki, just like Katakuri.

According to Katakuri's memories, he foresaw that the other party would awaken their powers as they practiced.

He also tried to cultivate along that path, but nothing came of it.
