One Piece: The Max-Level Blacksmith of Marineford

"Hmm? Dr. Vegapunk is waiting for me? Then let's hurry up and go in."

Halfway through their conversation, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

The newcomer was full of energy and exuded the smell of a furnace; it was none other than Iron Hammer.

Edward: ...He really is a blacksmith. This smell is really strong!

Chapter 87 Memory Metal, a Trick for Monkey King!

"Wow, is this the Punk Hazard that's known as the 'treasure trove of life'?"

"That's impressive."

Upon entering the research base, Tiechui was immediately struck by the impressive, technologically advanced lobby.

"Indeed, this is Punk Hazard's main scientific research base. Ladies and gentlemen, please come in. Dr. Vegapunk has been waiting in the Weapons Hall for quite some time."

Edward's expression remained completely calm. He had seen enough of these things in his daily life and was now completely immune to them.

Iron Hammer's expression remained unchanged, still bearing a slight smile, but his mind was already racing.

Vegapunk, the island of bullets.

In his past life, he got so excited about this damn plot that he blew up the stove.

He sighed when he mentioned these things. Although his life is not bad now, he still felt resentful.

Well, since we're already here, we might as well make the best of it. But this time, we absolutely have to find some high-tech weapons here, or we'll have come for nothing!

Once he made up his mind, Iron Hammer even moved with a lighter step.

Soon, led by Lieutenant General Edward, the three arrived at a very large room.

It was filled with a lot of weapons, all kinds and all sorts of them.

Iron Hammer and the others were dumbfounded.

Submachine gun? Little thing.

A rocket launcher? A four-shot type?

A mortar? Can you really put that on a ship?

Flamethrower? Hmm, this is similar to the one from Judge's side.

Howitzer? Wow? This thing is amazing.

Holy crap? What is that? A Barrett? Wait, that caliber is bigger than a Barrett!

All sorts of firearms had filled Hammer's eyes.

The hearts in his eyes were practically about to fly out.

The same goes for Lance; as the ship's sniper, his gun is his life.

"Stay calm, these are just some discarded products, don't worry about them too much."

Suddenly, a very calm voice rang out from behind the three of them.

There was a very tall man dressed in black and wearing a protective shield.

Seeing his hammer, a thought struck him.

Shakyamuni...

Had they already developed a clone by this time?

It seems Vegapunk was wary of the World Government from the very beginning...

"I am Dr. Vegapunk Shakya, and I am delighted that you have come to Punk Hazard."

Shakyamuni focused his gaze on the iron hammer, scanning it from top to bottom.

"So you're Major General Iron Hammer? I've heard your forging can imbue objects with special properties?"

"I'm curious, is this something granted by your Devil Fruit power?"

Iron Hammer steadied his mind.

"Hello, Dr. Vegapunk, what you mean by 'granting' is indeed my Devil Fruit ability."

"I've used it to create quite a few special items."

After saying that, Iron Hammer casually took out a longsword from his ring, which was the Sword Qi Longsword.

Two beams of light instantly lit up the protective shield around Shakyamuni's head, and his voice was somewhat excited.

"A spatial item? It seems your abilities are quite powerful."

"Even I, an old man, have not made much progress in space research!"

Upon hearing this, Iron Hammer revealed a hearty smile.

Dude, even if you are a Paramecia-type Brain-Brain Fruit user with knowledge surpassing anyone else.

But this isn't something science can explain; it's something the system bestowed upon us—one of a kind for Scorpion Dad! You can't help but envy us!

The Paramecia-type Brain-Brain Fruit grants its user an unlimited brain capacity, allowing them to store an infinite amount of information. The more data absorbed, the larger the brain becomes. Vegapunk's innate genius combined with his unlimited mental database makes his brain the largest in the world.

The Shakyamuni in front of them was actually just an avatar created by Vegapunk.

Iron Hammer could understand; after all, they were just ordinary navy personnel, and Vegapunk had no reason to come out and meet a rear admiral.

Even if this major general possesses extraordinary abilities, it wouldn't be enough.

"Doctor, you are too kind. You are the smartest person on this ocean. I have come here to seek your help."

"Hmm? Help? Tell me about it."

Shakyamuni regained his composure and waited for Hammer to ask his question.

"First, I would like to request some weapons from you. Don't worry, I have brought the orders of the Warring States generals."

"Secondly, I'd like to see if you have any metals that can accommodate extreme attributes. I've forged a longsword with ice element, and ordinary scabbards simply cannot coexist with it. Even ice created by Logia-type Ice-Ice Fruit users cannot coexist with it."

Upon hearing this, Shakyamuni's eyes flashed with two more beams of light.

"A longsword made of ice element? Forged from ice crystals?"

"Yes, and the power of the ice element has been increased through the amplification of my abilities."

"Hmm...it seems that only that kind of metal can solve this."

"That kind of metal???"

A hint of doubt flashed through Iron Hammer's mind.

"The weapons are all here. Take whatever guns you want. They're all obsolete anyway, so take them if you want."

"As for the metal you mentioned, come with me yourself."

After saying this, Shakyamuni turned and walked towards the laboratory on the other side.

Hammer winked at Lance and Sherry.

The two of them gave Iron Hammer an OK sign in perfect unison.

Take everything you can! Don't let a single bullet or gun go to waste!

"The best metal for suppressing elemental power is memory metal, but this metal is extremely rare."

Even here, I don't have much stock.

Shape memory metal?

Suddenly, the image of a man flashed through Hammer's mind; it was Vinsmoke Judge.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content!

Isn't this his older brother's specialty?

"I heard you've met Vinsmoke Judge, so you should know something about shape memory metals, right?"

"I only met him because of a mission."

Without turning his head, Shakyamuni began explaining shape memory metals.

"Memory metal is a very special material. My research on it is still in its early stages, but it has the property of fusion and restoration. Even if it is damaged, it can be restored within a certain period of time."

"The longsword you mentioned that possesses the power of ice element, if a scabbard is made of memory metal, that scabbard should be able to perfectly contain the freezing power without being destroyed."

Shape memory metals...

Iron Hammer actually knew about this; both Germa's combat suits and the Seraph that appeared later were made of memory metal.
