One Piece: Start Collecting Nicolo

"Switch them back immediately."

As Caesar finished speaking, Luo had already activated ROOM and restored the personalities of the two.

"Although it's still unclear whether it's the personality or the soul that's being transformed, it's clear that memories are stored in both the brain and the personality, or perhaps the soul."

The two had just recovered when Kuleha, Wolf, Luo, and Deus had already picked up their notebooks to take notes, their eyes full of sincerity towards science.

"That's really interesting. This is the first time I've seen the ability to swap personalities."

He smiled and supported himself with his staff and sword, looking very excited.

"The ability of the Operation Fruit is very practical. Even someone proficient in Haki might fail when facing it for the first time. It can also be used for infiltration operations and hostage rescues. The only drawback is that it consumes too much physical energy."

Caesar was rather regretful. "Of course, this ability can only be used to its full potential in the hands of a doctor like Luo. I'm not capable of such a complex operation."

He and Luo are not the same kind of people.

Currently in the Dawn team, he, Yamato, Yixiao, and Ace are numerical monsters, and the others are all mechanism monsters.

"Based on the current conditions, it is still impossible to confirm whether it is the soul or the personality that is being transformed. Without this certainty, it is also impossible to determine whether the fruit's ability is attached to the body or the soul."

Wolf slapped his forehead and said, "It's really frustrating, but for this kind of weird research, I still need the help of that guy Vegapunk!"

"I'll bring him back after a while. It's not the right time yet." Caesar said lightly.

I remember it was this year, when the poison gas explosion occurred in Punk Hazard, and Vegapunk moved out of Punk Hazard and moved to Egghead Island.

Now his cheap father-in-law is watching Punk Hazard, and if there is any movement, Caesar will be the first to receive the news.

"The big-headed doll?"

Kuleha snorted and laughed. She had met Vegapunk before, but that was many years ago. At that time, Magnetic Drum was still a world-famous medical power, and the other party had copied many medical books and brought them back.

"Vegapunk has successfully developed an artificial Blue Dragon Fruit. Although the color of the fruit is different, the ability is basically the same."

Caesar pondered, "By the way, he developed an artificial fruit through his bloodline factors. If you look at it that way, the fruit's ability should be attached to the body, but the ability of the Yomiuri Fruit can bring the souls of the dead back from the underworld..."

"Is it possible that, like an anchor point, the ability is recorded in the body, using some kind of power to ensure that the body is not completely dead?" Luo made a guess.

"No, the body is indeed completely dead."

Caesar shook his head and said something jaw-dropping: "Because the user of the Yomiuri Fruit got lost in the fog at sea. When he returned to his body, it had become a skeleton."

"Skeleton?!" ×N

Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Yamato was shocked, but he had no doubt about the truth of Caesar's words: "Even after all this, you're still alive? What a tenacious fellow!"

"That's the power of the devil fruit!" Nami couldn't help but complain.

“It’s unbelievable, but it’s true…”

Caesar nodded. "After that guy was resurrected, although he turned into a skeleton, he could still speak, eat, and defecate normally. He could even leave his body. In addition, he could bring the freezing air of the underworld to the world of the living and use it as a means of attack..."

"Alas--?!"

Nami and baby5 were terrified, but Yamato and Bonnie's eyes were shining.

Robin, however, remained calm: "Frost? Isn't it Hellfire?"

"In other words, the legendary place called Huangquan actually exists?"

Yamato was eager to try: "I really want to go and see it!"

"Sorry, I don't have that much ability yet..."

Caesar took a look at the system tasks, including the rewards for the Zanpakuto tasks.

If I can get a Zanpakuto in the future, I can try to defeat Yomi.

“This world is so magical…”

Kuleha chuckled and also felt a little longing.

She was only over 130 years old, at the right age for adventure. If possible, she would naturally want to visit those legendary places before she died.

Caesar didn't stay in Kuleha for long. After leaving Luo and Deuce behind, the group said goodbye and left.

A pure snow country like the Magnetic Drum Kingdom is rare even in the Grand Line, so Caesar asked everyone to go there in groups of three or four.

After all, the next destination is the desert, so it’s better to cool down if possible.

Caesar was still in a team with his women. Nami did not follow this time because Kuma was not there, so the task of taking care of Bonnie was given to her.

The cunning little girl asked Bonnie to turn herself into a child. With their cute little faces, they used cute means to eat and drink for free in various villages and towns.

Barto and Yixiao found a warm pub and went in, drinking and gambling.

Ace, Babel, and Dr. Wolf are looking for parts that can be used in power boats.

The Magnetic Drum Kingdom is a major medical country, but medical care requires the support of fairly advanced scientific productivity. It is worth mentioning that the shipbuilding industry of the Magnetic Drum Kingdom is also very good. Several people quickly found the items they liked - a steam-powered engine.

"We can start building the power boat now!"

Dr. Wolfe announced as everyone returned to the ship in the evening.

"Oh? Isn't this an outboard engine?"

Deuce, who had just returned from Kuleha's visit, saw the object on the deck and his face lit up. "Is it just a model I haven't seen before?"

"This is a Navy-specific model. Vegapunk eliminated it from the Navy's equipment upgrade two years ago. It's 90% new."

Wolfe explained, "With just a few modifications, it can be used on Ace's flame ship."

"There's no need to rush. There are flame shells on Sky Island that can store flames, and wind shells that can store wind power. We can make them now and modify them later."

Caesar stopped the excited people and said, "Besides, we're going to be jetting up vertically on the ocean current. We might get damaged by collision if we're not careful."

"Sky Island?!"

Ace leaned over to Caesar, his eyes shining: "Are we finally going to Sky Island?"

"After passing Alabasta, we'll soon reach the territory of Sky Island."

"Then wait a little longer! If you want to do it, do it to the best of your ability!"

Ace looked excited and suddenly punched Caesar in the face.

Caesar tilted his head slightly, flipped his hand and swung a hammer, embedding it into the deck.

"Write it down, Yamato, 68:0."

Caesar waved his hand and turned to walk into the cabin. He had bought a lot of food during the day and he needed to prepare dinner for baby5.

As the number of crew members increased, baby5 was unable to cook by herself, and she needed to find a knife sharpener.

……

After staying in the Magnetic Drum Kingdom for more than half a month, everyone set off for Alabasta.

Before leaving, Caesar also helped copy a lot of medical books.

"Are you really not going with us? Chopper..."

Before leaving, on the shore, Caesar patted Chopper's little head with a smile.

In the past half month, Kuleha would bring Chopper to their ship to eat every now and then.

Chopper has also become good friends with the cute trio - Yamato, Bonnie, and Bebop.

Together we built snowmen, held banquets, and fought with Labang... (Labang is a carnivorous rabbit as big as a bear in Drum Country.)

Seeing that Caesar and his gang were about to leave, the little guy looked very silent.

"I…"

Chopper opened his mouth and felt a little sore in his eyes.

"Don't even think about it. This guy is still far from it."

Kuleha snorted coldly, feeling reluctant.

If Caesar and his crew had arrived a year or two later, she would have sent Chopper to their ship.

Chopper's learning time is too short and he is too young to even meet the minimum requirements to become an apprentice. She is really worried.

"Um…"

Chopper nodded: "I'm still far from it, and I'm a reindeer! You are humans..."

"Dr. Kureha is also human."

Caesar rubbed Rua's furry little face and said, "Companions have nothing to do with race. You are recognized by all of us."

"Why don't we wait until Chopper's medical skills are qualified before we take him away?" Bonnie suggested.

"That's right, okay, Captain..." PayPal also quickly responded.

"Then it's settled!"

Caesar stood up and handed Chopper a business card and a snow den den mushi. "This is my number. When you become a qualified doctor, Chopper, we'll come pick you up!"

"Eh…"

Chopper turned to look at Kuleha.

Kuleha snorted, crossed her arms and turned her head away, as if she hadn't seen anything.

Chopper took the Den Den Mushi blankly and carefully put it into the backpack behind him.

Looking at the gentle faces of the people in front of me, tears suddenly blurred my eyes.

"It's a deal! This is a deal between us men!"

"Oh!!!"

Chopper held up his little hoof and burst into tears.

Until the boat sailed away, the little guy still stood on the shore, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

"Let's go back, Chopper."

Kuleha turned and left, snorting coldly, "You're my assistant, and you were almost kidnapped by these guys I just met. Double your study time from now on! Otherwise, don't even think about eating!"

"Uh-huh!"

The small figure followed behind Kuleha, leaving two rows of cute cherry blossom hoof prints.

……

A hidden island somewhere in the New World, the headquarters of the World Economic News.

"Hahaha, big news! Another big news!"

Morgans looked at the faxed photos on the table and went crazy.

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea have fallen! Died at the hands of Caesar! The one who defeated him was his rookie, Portgas D. Ace!"

In the busy office, Morganus looked up at the sky and laughed loudly with his wings as if he was embracing something.

"A newcomer who uses the Nature-type Flame-Flame Fruit!"

"A name with a D...another D! What does it mean?"

There were two photos on the table in front of Morgans, one was a photo of Ace defeating Crocodile, and the other was a photo of Crocodile's corpse.

The document next to it also points out Crocodile's identity - the president of the criminal company Baroque Works, and the culprit who disguised himself as a hero and started the civil unrest in Alabasta!

"What a shame... Such shocking news has to be delayed. Caesar..."

Thinking of the person who sent the fax, a trace of fear flashed in Morgans' eyes.

You have to give face to a Four Emperors-level strongman who can fly.

And not only give, but give big and special amounts!

Others may not know Caesar's true strength, but he, Morganus, knows it very well.

The guy who tied with Kaido, or even had a slight advantage, not only had an alliance between father-in-law and son-in-law, but he could also fly!

If he really angered these two and let them find any clues about his headquarters, he would basically be finished.

Even if they couldn't catch him, they could just find a newspaper delivery guy to follow him and easily wipe out all his branches.

Therefore, he was not willing to provoke this powerful flying guy at all.

It is also for this reason that in the past few years, Kaido has been the least reported among the Four Emperors.
