Looking around, it feels like being in an ocean of technology.

What appeared before him was a magnificent scene.

Countless robotic whales swam and drifted in the air, their paths constantly traversing like dreamlike star trails.

A labyrinthine city of machines enveloped in giant bubbles, a test base shaped like a rocket.

The various bizarre and wonderful buildings are dazzling.

All of these are the crystallization of Béjart's imagination.

Even Renault had to admit that the genius scientist Béjart, who was 500 years ahead of the world, truly lived up to his reputation.

After a brief moment of surprise, Renault glanced toward one of the laboratories.

He sensed several presences within that space.

If nothing unexpected happens, these should be six clones of Bejapunk.

Using his Observation Haki to lock onto the auras of the group, Renault did not immediately head to the laboratory, but instead walked in the other direction.

A large waste disposal plant.

In one corner, a giant steel robot was casually placed.

Renault watched it quietly.

Emmett.

A steel giant created 900 years ago.

Two hundred years ago, they attacked the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

Later, due to energy depletion, it fell into a deep sleep, and the world government ordered scientists to destroy it.

However, Satan, one of the Five Elders, chose to hide it and study it in secret because of his own selfish motives.

Somehow, it ended up in the hands of Bejaponk.

Legend has it that it can be awakened simply by hearing the sound of the liberation drum.

What is the World Government hiding?

What kind of existence was that ancient kingdom?

What happened during the blank 100 years?

Even Renault was momentarily stunned when he saw Emmett.

"Unfortunately, you will never wake up."

Reno, regaining his senses, shook his head.

The Nika fruit is in the system's inventory.

Aside from Luffy, he didn't know anyone else who could transform into Nika after eating it.

of course.

Renault will not allow that to happen.

"Whoops"

suddenly.

From some inconspicuous corner came a sound of pain.

"What did you say? The Navy sent people to kill me??"

"Renault is here too?"

Is the news true?

Immediately afterwards, a series of incredulous voices reached Renault's ears.

Renault withdrew his gaze, chuckled, and shook his head.

He walked in that direction and soon saw the source of the voice.

The other person was a little old man who looked remarkably like Albert Einstein.

His cheeks were flushed, his hair was gray, and he wore a scalp shaped like an apple branch. His tongue protruded from his mouth and extended all the way to his abdomen.

He was wearing a white research jacket with "SSG" printed on it and a floral shirt.

What is most striking is his enormous head that seems to reach straight to the sky.

With such an appearance, his identity is obvious.

He was none other than a genius scientist, "the man with the world's largest brain."

Paramecia-type Brain-Brain Fruit user, Begarpunk!

Renault looked at the strangely-looking old man before him with genuine respect.

Bejaponk is a true genius.

His research covers multiple fields, including biology, physics, Devil Fruits, weapons, history, and medicine.

And they have achieved remarkable success in every field.

As is well known, the following are:

Six clones.

Pacifists and Seraphim.

Artificial Devil Fruit.

The condition for ability conversion is the technology that allows an "object" to consume a Devil Fruit (such as an elephant sword).

PS: So it was this old man who did it.

Green blood.

Authoritarian chip. (That is, the built-in chip that controls the Seraphim.)

The Mother Spark. (The thing Im drew on the map—the one that blew up the Revolutionaries' headquarters with a single shot.)

Seastone warships. (Easily traversing the Calm Belt.)

Besides these well-known examples, there are also GPFlowers, YunTai, artificial diamonds, marine mammal weapons, artificial organs, stem cell transplants, holographic projection, vacuum rockets...

Some of them may not be well-known, but their role is by no means insignificant.

There is a legend about Bejaponk on the high seas.

It is said that even 500 years from now, no one will be able to match his level of technology.

Renault strongly agrees with this.

Such a person must be kept under control.

It's important to understand that there's no end to technology.

Putting everything else aside, the power of that mother fire alone is comparable to the three great weapons of ancient times.

"Renault... Renault!!!"

Bejaponk, his tongue lolling out, spoke tremblingly.

He had just received Lilith's message when he ran into Renault. What bad luck!

"Hello, Dr. Betsypunk."

Renault greeted the little old man with a smile.

"Ok??"

"you"

Seeing that Renault didn't seem to have any ill intentions, Bejaponk relaxed slightly and tentatively asked:

"Renault, you...you're not here to kill me, are you??"

Renault smiled slightly and shook his head, saying, "No, it's the World Government that wants to kill you."

"call"

Bejaponk patted his chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

I can live a little longer now.

"Lilith said the Navy has sent people. Did you stop them?"

"Bejaponk asked."

“That’s right, my men are fighting them.”

Renault nodded in agreement.

"So, what brings you here?"

Bejaponk frowned, feeling deeply puzzled.

Although he was engrossed in his research, the name Reynolds was known to everyone on the high seas.

Since they've come here, they must have some ulterior motive.

Could it be...

"Doctor, I want you to join the Reno Pirates."

Renault sincerely extended an olive branch to Béjart.

"Ugh"

Bejaponk's eyes widened, a look of surprise on his face.

Many possibilities flashed through his mind, but he hadn't considered this point in 4.8.

Renault, seemingly confident that he had Béjart completely under his control, said:

"Doctor, your research has touched a nerve with the World Government. They see you as a thorn in their side and will never let you go."

"As long as you join the Reno Pirates, I can guarantee your safety."

Bejaponk fell silent upon hearing this.

From the moment he had this idea, he understood how dangerous it was.

But as a scientist, his curiosity compels him to find out what happened during that blank 100 years.

"World Government"

Pepperd Punk murmured softly.

He was well aware of how terrifying world governments could be.

With his power, even if he hides at the ends of the earth, his only fate will be death.

However, once he joins the Reno Pirates, all his technological inventions will have to be shared with Reno.

"Renault, I have a question."

quite a while.

"Beijia Pangke asked seriously."

Renault nodded slightly, signaling him to continue.

Bejapunk looked directly into Renault's eyes and said, enunciating each word clearly, "I want to know, what is your ultimate goal?"

"If I join the Reno Pirates, what will you do with my research?"

This is a very important issue for him.

He didn't understand Renault's character.

If the other party is an utterly wicked person, their powerful strength combined with their own technology will be a formidable threat.

What it will bring to the sea is endless disaster.

If that were the case, he would rather die than submit.

Renault fell silent.

A picture suddenly flashed through his mind.
