The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 392 Return

When Tony and Steve followed Seraph Hawkeye to the entrance of the research institute, Vegapunk had been waiting expectantly for a long time.

He stood before that technologically advanced door, his eyes brimming with barely suppressed excitement, like a child about to see a toy he had long desired.

"You're finally here," Vegapunk greeted Tony warmly as soon as he saw him, giving him a big hug.

In the world of One Piece, as the most brilliant mind, he is always immersed in the unfathomable world of scientific research, and almost no one around him can truly communicate with him on the same level of thinking.

Even the most outstanding researchers could only barely keep up with his pace when faced with his advanced and profound research ideas, let alone have in-depth discussions and inspire each other.

However, the moment Vegapunk came into contact with Tony's black armor, he keenly sensed that the person who developed this armor must be a scientist no less capable than himself.

This discovery thrilled him, as if he had finally found a partner to walk alongside in the vast ocean of scientific research.

Wess knew Vegapunk's passion and dedication to scientific research, so he didn't impose too many restrictions on his research. He could basically do whatever he wanted to research.

But for Vegapunk, even with such a relaxed research environment, the lack of someone to discuss and study with was an extremely painful thing.

In order to have more energy to explore different scientific research fields, he created seven clones with his outstanding wisdom. Each clone has unique abilities and roles to assist him in carrying out various complex research tasks.

"What a genius!" Tony looked at Vegapunk, his eyes full of admiration, and couldn't help but praise him, "This way you'll have more time to study more fields."

"That's right, so how did you solve this problem?"

Vegapunk looked at Tony with curiosity, eager to know what unique methods this scientist from another world had for dealing with the same predicament.

Artificial intelligence.

Tony smiled and replied that he knew the artificial intelligence he had developed had played a huge role in scientific research and armor control, which was one of his proudest achievements.

"Artificial intelligence?"

Vegapunk frowned slightly. This concept was completely new to him, a field he had never explored before.

A strong thirst for knowledge instantly ignited in his eyes, like an explorer eager to uncover the mysteries of an unknown treasure.

Seeing this, Tony patiently began to explain to him, from the basic principles of artificial intelligence, to how it learns, how it assists him in performing various complex calculations and decisions, and then to the key role it plays in the armor system, explaining everything in detail.

Vegapunk listened intently, nodding occasionally and showing a look of sudden realization, his eyes growing brighter and brighter.

"This is amazing, it's like the birth of a new race."

Vegapunk couldn't help but sigh. As a pure scientist, he only saw the scientific progress represented by this technology. As for the other effects that this technology might bring, they were not within his consideration at the moment. He was completely occupied by this novel knowledge and immersed in his imagination of the unknown scientific research field.

"Perhaps I should implant new programs into all pacifists."

Vegapunk seemed to have suddenly thought of something, muttering to himself with an eager impulse in his eyes.

"pacifist?"

Upon hearing the word, Tony immediately became interested, looking at Vegapunk with curiosity and a strong desire to explore this unfamiliar thing.

Seeing Tony's interest, Vegapunk made no attempt to hide anything and began to explain the pacifists in detail.

He described how pacifists were created, their formidable fighting capabilities, and their unique functions.

During the introduction, he also mentioned some basic information about the pirate world, such as the distribution of various forces on that vast ocean, the unique customs and culture of different islands, and the various deeds of those fearsome pirate crews and the Marine Headquarters.

These people are definitely not from Earth.

As Tony listened, he pondered to himself. Through the information revealed by Vegapunk, he became even more certain that he was in a completely unfamiliar world. At the same time, he subtly inquired about many things, while Vegapunk answered every question, seemingly unconcerned about whether this information would be leaked.

In his eyes, scientific research is the most important thing, and everything else seems less important.

"What an interesting planet."

Tony exclaimed sincerely that he was deeply attracted by the pirate world described by Vegapunk, especially those amazing Devil Fruits, which possessed all sorts of strange abilities and could grant people unimaginable power.

And that powerful, domineering aura—all of this struck him as incredibly novel.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Steve listened intently from the side.

"However, we are about to face a great flood," Vegapunk sighed slightly, a hint of regret on his face, and said with emotion, "But the world that Wes created can accommodate some people."

As he spoke, he looked into the distance, his eyes revealing a complex emotion, as if he was worried about the impending disaster, yet also grateful that there was still a glimmer of hope.

Suddenly, Vegapunk seemed to remember something important and changed the subject, his gaze returning to Tony, his eyes full of curiosity: "By the way, the material of the black armor is very peculiar; I've never seen it before. Is it unique to your planet?"

"This material is called vibranium," Tony replied. The mention of vibranium reminded him of the hardships he had endured to obtain this rare material, and he couldn't help but feel a pang of emotion.

"What an amazing material!" Vegapunk exclaimed, already imagining the amazing effects it would bring if used in his research.

"It's just too expensive."

Tony couldn't help but complain, recalling the enormous wealth he had spent to create that black armor. Even with his immense fortune, he felt a pang of regret, which made him both love and hate vibranium.

And so, after spending a few days at Vegapunk's research institute, Tony and Steve were immersed in all sorts of novel scientific knowledge and wonderful experiences, making their days both fulfilling and full of surprises.

However, when they tried to gather more information about Weiss, they found themselves on the streets of Washington.
