The Bizarre Adventure of Pirates

Jon: "Okay, okay, I have to admit that I had a lot of fun, but what you said about win-win cooperation..."

Lilith pondered for a moment and said, "We are all clones of Dr. Vegapunk, handling various tasks and chores for him. On the surface, we are employees of the World Government, but privately we are just servants of the Celestial Dragons."

"House servants? They should be slaves, right? Except that we don't have chains, what's the difference between us and slaves?" York couldn't help but complain.

Lilith sighed, "Whether they are servants or slaves, freedom is a luxury for us... The same goes for the doctor. Although he likes to do research, who wants to be controlled by others when they can do their research freely?"

Jon laughed, "That's a good point, but what Vegapunk is researching has already exceeded the bottom line of human morality, right?"

Caesar Clown, who was killed by John before, was also a scum. In order to create an artificial devil fruit and enlarge the human body, he did not hesitate to use innocent children for experiments. But compared with Vegapunk, Caesar Clown was as harmless as a little white rabbit that had just shed its fur.

Don't overestimate the bottom line and moral concepts of any mad scientist.

If the World Government hadn't been jealous of Vegapunk's wisdom, based on the horrific things MADS had done before, it would not be an exaggeration to shoot this old guy 1 times!

Lilith didn't explain either.

Vegapunk is not a good guy, so how much better can you, Jon Joestar?

Big brother, don't make fun of the second brother.

As long as it saves face, that's enough.

Jon curled his lips, "Haha, I was just saying it casually... So, what do you mean?"

"Conventional and ultimate means have no effect on you. This practical test is coming to an end. Next, I want to take you to see the doctor and complete the "final trial."

In order to prevent John Joestar from being unhappy, Lilith also explained, "The so-called "Final Trial" is our internal name. The power of the Doctor Fruit is quite strong. It can improve other people's intelligence to a certain extent, and even activate the potential of the human body from the brain. It is also good for a strong person like you."

Becoming stronger is the main theme.

Lilith believed that as long as this matter was made known to him, John Joestar would be happy to go there even if he knew there was a trap ahead.

The fact was just as he imagined. Jon clapped his hands and laughed, "Good!"

Stussy became excited when he heard this. With the doctor personally taking action, John Joestar could no longer be arrogant.

After all, the strength of the body does not represent the strength of the brain...

Some rather terrifying images flashed through his mind, and Stussy felt a little excited, but at the same time, a little lost.

If Jon had seen her heart, he would probably have said with satisfaction: This is what the early stages of Stockholm syndrome look like...

He explained the matter in a few words.

Lilith and Jon reached a consensus.

With insiders leading the way, all the agencies in Egghead became useless.

Of course, Jon didn't take these mechanisms seriously. They just made things more convenient, and he was too lazy to put in the effort.

After passing through a forest, crossing a lake, walking through a desert made entirely of moving mechanical bugs, and climbing over several hills, the group finally arrived at the research institute where Dr. Vegapunk worked.

Vegapunk was not the only one in the institute. Many peace defenders were like loyal dogs, blocking the door inside and outside.

Fortunately, whether it was Lilith, York or Atlas, they all had extremely high authority in Egghead. With a simple command, the red light in the eyes of those peace defenders gradually disappeared...

"Research funds are limited, and there is no extra money to invest in these backward mass-produced combat robots." Lilith joked to Jon.

After a pause, he said meaningfully: "Of course, as long as the research funds are sufficient, we can also produce higher-level products."

Money, money, money. Lilith, like Tesoro, is in charge of Egghead's finances. In order to raise more research funds and not rely too much on the World Government, she often robs passing ships (mainly pirates).

Jon didn't comment, but simply said, "Where is Vegapunk?"

"The doctor is in the deepest part of the underground. Take this card and take the elevator all the way down to see him." As she said this, Lilith handed Jon a silver card.

Jon was a little dazed and asked curiously, "I didn't notice it just now. Where did you take this card from?"

Lilith zipped up the chest of her tights, "Please don't worry about such details."

Okay~

Vegapunk was right in front of him, and Jon had no time to do anything else.

Swipe the card to enter the elevator and go all the way down.

He could feel that special biological magnetic field becoming more and more obvious.

If it were someone else, they would probably be weakened to the point of vomiting blood before they even meet the real protagonist Vegapunk.

But this little pressure is almost nothing for Jon.

A few minutes later, the elevator door opened.

When Jon walked out, he saw at a glance the purple octagonal crystal that looked like crystal, and the old man standing under the crystal with a white beard, a wrinkled face, a head so big that it touched the ceiling, and his tongue sticking out.

"Welcome, welcome to my studio."

Vegapunk seemed very enthusiastic and opened his arms to Jon.

"So, are you ready for the final test?"

Jon looked at me for a moment and said truthfully: "Although I have prepared myself mentally before, I still feel a little disgusted when I actually see you."

Shaking his head, he walked towards Vegapunk, "Since this is the last one, I hope you can show your true ability, otherwise, I will be very disappointed."

Vegapunk ignored him and continued, "The brain is the most amazing organ in the human body..."

Chapter 595: Egghead's Great Adventure (End)

Jon was below undergoing the "final test", while York, Atlas and Lilith were waiting above.

Of course, the atmosphere among the three of them was not very friendly.

Mainly, Atlas still blamed York for shamelessly surrendering to the enemy, and he also had complaints about Lilith's weak behavior...

Neither York nor Lilith took it seriously.

As for Atlas, this little thing is not very smart, maybe he doesn't even have a brain groove. As one of Dr. Vegapunk's clones, he only thinks about fighting and killing all day long. How can he be a serious person?

Ignoring the chattering Atlas, York and Lilith chatted casually.

Suddenly, both of them shuddered.

After a brief moment of surprise, they all saw an indescribable shock in each other's eyes.

Atlas, who looked like a little tiger, was even paler and said tremblingly, "What's going on... I... I can't feel the doctor's presence."

Countless terrifying thoughts flashed through Lilith's mind in an instant. As it concerned her future destiny, she could no longer remain calm. She asked York for the authority card like a madman.

Even though York had always said that he wanted to be the only Vegapunk, when this situation really happened, this idiot still seemed a little overwhelmed.

Dr. Vegapunk is dead?

What on earth did Jon Joestar do!

the other side.

Jon was also quite depressed.

He thought that the so-called "final trial" would be a passionate 1v1 fight with Vegapunk, a mad scientist known for his brainpower.

In my imagination, that scene should be...

Vegapunk: Did you know that the brain is the most amazing organ in the human body?

Jon: (Pretending to be an expert without saying anything)

Vegapunk: After the Brain-Brain Fruit unlocked the true potential of the human body, I have been hiding this power. But today, you will have the honor of seeing my true form.

Jon: (sneers) Then I really have to thank you.

Vegapunk: No need to thank me, I also want to use my strongest power to verify my true strength... Then, let's see the limit of what the human body can reach! (Roaring) Open it, my ghost brain!

Jon: (pretending to be panicked) What? You’re actually the legendary Ghost Brain, who is as famous as Ghost Back. Could it be that you are from Fanmar?

Vegapunk: It's too late to know this now, go to hell, you pirate!

Just as outsiders cannot see the true limit of John Joestar's strength, they also have no idea how good the cold, domineering and cool Pirate Emperor is at entertaining himself when he is alone.

Of course, Vegapunk's final trial can't be said to be boring, on the contrary, his abilities are quite tricky.

That is

——Forced sharing of knowledge between both parties through brain waves.

Who is Vegapunk?

A genius scientist who claims to be at least 500 years ahead of the current era.

His innate genius, coupled with the infinite brain database provided by the Brain-Brain Fruit, makes him a walking knowledge base!

Speaking of which, this is not the first time Jon has encountered someone with this ability.

In the mysterious world, the demigods who peeped into the secret paths of the people would use this trick;

In the world of Chainsaw Man, the Space Demon who follows the Arrow Demon Guangxi can also use this move;

Even in the Jujutsu Kaisen, Gojo Satoru's specialty is the Infinite Space, which is to use useless information to turn people into idiots.

This thing is neither a physical attack nor a magical attack like fire and lightning. If we have to summarize it, it can be summarized as real damage on the mental level.

Sharing knowledge between both parties sounds safe and even has a hint of friendship.

However, if it were someone else, such as Kaido who was defeated by John not long ago, and accepted so much knowledge from Vegapunk in an instant, he would probably become more crazy than her daughter without any preparation.

But Jon is different.

Vegapunk's knowledge was completely meaningless to him.

On the contrary, the information in his mind is a fatal temptation to Vegapunk!

"Ahahahaha, I see the truth!"

"That's it, that's it!"

"Ah, I understand!"

Vegapunk fell into a deep state of madness.

It’s understandable…

After all, this is what happens when you face an ancient god head-on.

Although Jon did not log in to the main account, the memories between them were shared. Vegapunk saw those bizarre, colorful people and things, just like a dry sponge, desperately absorbing every drop of water.

This caused his head to grow bigger and bigger...

In just three or five breaths, Vegapunk had completely become a vassal of the brain, like an inconspicuous pendant.

"This is what they call "you reap what you sow." Jon sighed silently.

How could he not see that Vegapunk was on the brink of destruction.

Even if the power of the brain was used to develop the human body to 300%, it would still be impossible to accommodate one billionth of what he saw and heard.

Because the two sides are not equal in the level of life.

Sure enough, when the entire studio could no longer contain Vegapunk's crawling brain, this genius scientist who was 500 years ahead of the current era exploded.

It did not explode outwards, but collapsed inwards, as if a singularity appeared out of nowhere and absorbed everything.

Jon showed a surprised expression and couldn't help but praise: "Amazing, you actually got promoted."

Devil fruits are part of the rules of this world. If they say that the brain capacity is infinite, then that is infinite brain capacity.

Although his body cannot withstand such a huge flow of knowledge, Dr. Vegapunk can choose to evolve autonomously, get rid of the physical existence, and assimilate with the information.

To put it simply, this genius scientist became a similar concept with the accidental assistance of Jon, just like the movie starring the goddess that Du Xiaoshuai has been thinking about - he does not exist, but he is everywhere.

Now Vegapunk is a collection of knowledge.

Thinking of this, Jon couldn't help but try, "Xiaobei, Xiaobei."

"I'm here." Vegapunk's voice came from the void, resounding in Jon's ears at a special frequency.

Jon said calmly: "Tell me what 1+1 equals?"

"I am searching for the answer for you. The answer is as follows: Normally 1+1=2. If converted to binary, 1+1=10. Taking the connection symbol into consideration, 1+1=11. Or from the perspective of a Chinese character puzzle, 1+1＝丰..."

It was a simple question, but Vegapunk, who had turned into consciousness, took three minutes to explain it.

Jon nodded with satisfaction.

Vegapunk is at a very high level, at least humans cannot communicate with him, so he is not afraid of being used by anyone to do something harmful to the world.
