One Piece: The user of the Nen-Nen Fruit, who overturned the sea.

The research area is a huge white building with walls covered with various pipes and wires.

Two researchers in white coats were talking at the entrance, completely unaware of the approaching danger.

"This is it."

Roy whispered,

"Tesoro, you take control of the gate. Jhin, you stand guard."

"yes!"

Tesoro transformed into a bolt of electricity and instantly appeared in front of the gate control panel.

Electromagnetic force penetrated the control system, and a few seconds later, the door slid open silently.

Roy slipped inside, while Jhin spread his wings and hovered above the research area, the flames behind him burning fiercely in the cold wind.

Inside the research area, there are rows of sophisticated instruments and busy researchers.

Everyone was stunned when Roy suddenly barged in.

"Who...who are you?!" a middle-aged researcher wearing glasses asked in a trembling voice.

Roy didn't answer, but instead used his Observation Haki to instantly lock onto several key locations.

"Certainly!"

An invisible force enveloped the entire research area, freezing everyone in place, unable to move.

Roy walked to the control panel and quickly started operating it.

He needs to locate the equipment storage area and the archives.

Soon, a structural diagram of the entire research area appeared on the screen.

"The equipment is in Sector B3, the archives are in Sector B5... and there's a secret underground laboratory?"

Roy's eyes narrowed.

Dr. Gracia's list did not mention the underground secret laboratory.

But his intuition told him that something more important might be hidden there.

"Tezzolo, you go to section B3 and move the equipment. I'll go check section B5 and the underground."

"yes!"

The two split up.

Tezoro transformed into electricity, traversing the corridor and quickly locating the equipment storage area.

Inside, various precision instruments are neatly arranged, some of which are still in operation.

"Gene editing equipment, cell culture chambers, energy analyzers... they're all here!"

Tezzolo excitedly opened the pea's storage bag and began loading equipment into it.

Although the storage bag was empty, it was still a bit difficult to fit so much equipment inside.

"I can only install the most important items first..."

Based on the doctor's list, Tezzolo prioritized the essential equipment.

Meanwhile, Roy arrived at the archives in Sector B5.

This place contains a large amount of research data. Roy quickly flipped through it, using his mental power to wrap all the seemingly important data around and float it behind him.

Just then, his Observation Haki detected a faint energy fluctuation coming from underground.

"There really was a secret..."

Roy followed the ripples and found a hidden elevator.

The elevator requires a password to start, but that's no problem for Roy.

Mental energy seeped into the control system, and a few seconds later, the elevator doors opened silently.

Roy entered the elevator and pressed the only button.

The elevator descended slowly, stopping only after falling a full fifty meters.

The door opened, revealing a huge underground space.

This place is completely different from the research area above; it's more like a... prison.

Rows of transparent culture chambers are neatly arranged, filled with all sorts of strange and wonderful creatures.

There were humanoid creatures, beast-like creatures, and even some monsters that defied description.

"It seems these are all the experimental samples," Roy said, stroking his chin.

"With these, the doctor's experiments should be able to proceed even faster."

With that thought in mind, Roy no longer hesitated. He waved his hand, and the entire elevator shaft made a 'click-clack' sound.

With a loud bang, the entire elevator was abruptly separated, revealing a passageway leading straight upwards.

Roy manipulated the experimental samples, guiding them slowly upwards through the passage.

"Not a single sample can be missed!"

Roy's eyes gleamed, and his immense mental power acted like countless invisible hands, carefully lifting each incubation chamber.

The value of these samples is immeasurable—they are likely the result of years of secret research by world governments.

"Boss, what are these...?"

Having just finished moving important equipment, Tesoro looked at these strangely shaped experimental samples and asked curiously.

"Experimental samples".

Roy said succinctly,

"Take them all."

Tesoro swallowed hard. "All of it? Boss, the storage bag is almost full..."

"Then let's make a hole, and I'll move the rest of the stuff away."

"Make a hole?!"

Roy looked up and gestured towards the top of his head.

Tesoro looked puzzled at first, but when he saw Roy's eyes, he suddenly realized.

"Understood, boss!"

A flash of lightning appeared in Tesoro's eyes, and his body transformed into a bolt of lightning that shot into the sky!

He gathered terrifying thunderous energy in his hands and unleashed it fiercely at the dome of the research base!

"boom--!!!"

A blinding burst of lightning tore through the hard alloy dome as if it were made of paper, revealing a huge hole with a diameter of more than fifty meters!

"here you go!"

Roy gave a thumbs-up, then waved his hands, unleashing a torrent of immense spiritual power!

All the incubation chambers, research data, and even the researchers who were immobilized were lifted up by spiritual power and flowed into the void like water!

Thirty-seven incubation chambers, hundreds of boxes of data, and more than thirty researchers... formed a peculiar torrent, rising against gravity and flying towards the Ark of Proverbs.

"Meteor Volcano!!"

As Roy and Tezzolo were methodically moving the equipment, a roar echoed through the sky.

Even before Kaido and his crew launched their surprise attack, Sakazuki, who had remained hidden while guarding Punk Hazard, contacted Marine Headquarters as soon as the alarm sounded.

After receiving information from Fleet Admiral Kong that Garp and Kizaru, who were guarding the G-1 branch in the New World, would be sent to provide support...

Sakassky immediately rushed out of the command post to meet the enemy.

However, to his surprise, the enemy arrived so quickly and launched such a fierce attack!

Kaido's azure dragon body charged wildly, Bullet's iron fists were invincible, and Mihawk's slashes were unstoppable.

The outer defenses were breached in just ten minutes.

What alarmed him even more was that another enemy team had silently infiltrated the core of the base.

Watching the researchers, research equipment, data, and samples slowly float into the sky.

"Damn it! How dare they be so arrogant!" Sakazuki cursed under his breath.

"Even if it means destroying all of this, we will never let you succeed!!"

Enraged, Sakazuki unleashed his full power!

His fists transformed into scorching magma, unleashing countless enormous magma fists towards the sky.

Each one was like a miniature volcanic eruption, crashing down on the incubation chambers and data flying toward the Ark's Proverbs with the force of destruction!

"Sakazuki!?"

Roy was slightly startled, not expecting that the "Red Dog," whom he had never encountered since his debut, would be guarding this place.

Seeing the massive magma fist coming at him, Roy used his mental power to create a huge barrier and deflect the incoming magma.

"Bang bang bang bang——!!!"

The magma fist slammed into the barrier, unleashing a deafening explosion.

Sensing that Sakazuki hadn't given up, Roy connected his mental energy to the berserk Kaido.

"Kaido! Stop that Marine..."
