Arceus' Pirate Journey

After a long period of price negotiations, Kaido and Arceus got what they needed as they wished, so the transaction could naturally begin. However, Kaido's next words were something CP0 had never expected.

"Yes, if it is true, then we can trade it. How much are you prepared to pay per kilogram of seastone?"

"Kaido, what do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean? You have to spend money to buy things. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"

Kaido's words made their scalps numb. Of course they knew that buying things cost money.

But they went to so much trouble to exchange the things from the Celestial Dragons, but Kaido still charged them extra money, which made them feel that Kaido was taking advantage of them.

"Don't you know what barter is?"

"Of course I know. I'm very honest in my dealings, but you bastards from the World Government are different. If you didn't have this thing, I wouldn't bother with you. This just gives you the qualifications to trade. Do you understand?"

They were very angry, but there was nothing they could do. Kaido's business was almost a monopoly, and they had no choice but to agree since they were in urgent need of seastone.

"By the way, I don't want money, I want gold. I don't want to see the new money you print."

It's not like the world's governments haven't done this before, and it usually means that the currency will depreciate, so gold is more valuable.

The CP0 agents had no choice but to apply for funding again because Kaido directly hung up the phone.

After Kaido hung up the phone, Yamato stood up with the bag on his head.

"Father, who is on the other end of the phone? I hate that guy." A phone call made Kaido change his attitude. For a growing child, most people would not hold a grudge against their parents until their parents told them to give up.

The reason why it is the majority is that some people are born evil, and it has nothing to do with their acquired education.

Most people would shift the conflict to the person who caused his parents to do this, and Yamato has already done so at this point.

"CP0, the running dog of the World Government, will also be your enemy in the future."

"I understand. From now on, I will definitely beat them away with my own hands."

CP0 in the distance didn't know that he had offended others invisibly..

...

A few days later, Kaido appeared again on the island in the calm belt. This time he did not bring anyone else, but only brought some processed sea stone products.

Of course, doing this will cost extra money, but it is difficult for people outside of Wano Country to process seastone products, so saving on the processing fee will result in paying more.

As for why Arceus didn't come, he just felt it was inconvenient for him to show up in front of these people.

In fact, Kaido thought about snatching the stone tablet halfway, but in order to prevent the World Government from having more than one stone tablet, they gave up the idea.

"Where is the seastone you want?"

Two large cargo boxes were thrown aside by Kaido. Inside were some seastone handcuffs and chains. The purity was not very high. The outside world never had any requirements for the purity of seastone. As long as it was made of seastone, it was enough.

After all, even the lowest purity seastone is not something that ordinary people with special abilities can contend with.

"Here, you want gold or stone."

Kaido looked at his slate radar. The last incident with Orochi taught him a lesson. He calmed down after seeing the slate radar respond, and spit out flames to burn the gold.

This is one of the effective methods to test gold. Then he got a golden ball and left here directly with the thing.

Without any delay on the road, he returned to Wano Country at full speed, and the stone tablet returned to Arceus' body.

"how?"

"Not bad, that leaves only nine pieces left, and for this piece... I have a new idea."

Arceus and Kaido then came to the Rabbit Bowl Quarry. Because the attribute of the stone slab was rock, and there were a large number of seastone minerals in the Rabbit Bowl Mining Field.

Pokémon are not static; they will evolve into new attributes and characteristics depending on the environment in which they are produced.

Many rock-type Pokémon have bodies made of rock. Granite, shale, obsidian, and many other minerals are all types of rock, and seastone is no exception.

Arceus intends to make a brand new creation. If successful, they will be brand new Pokémon in the Wano region...

Chapter 257: The Birth of the Seastone Pokémon

The birth of Pokémon is extremely magical. Birds, beasts, and fish are just the most basic types. Humanoids, plants, ghosts, machines, and Pokémon are widely present in all fields.

Rock-type Pokémon are also members of the Pokémon family, although a large number of Pokémon have a composite attribute of rock and ground, which makes their weaknesses very obvious.

But there are exceptions, such as the Tyrannosaurus Rex that can surf, but it has been expelled from the dragon class and became a Rhinoceros.

There is also the Crystal Rock Snake. Due to the change in living environment, its body structure has turned into crystal. The change in structure has also caused huge changes in its properties.

Although it is still a rock-type Pokémon, it can live in water, and its most feared thing has changed from water to fire. This shows that the living environment can have a great impact on rock-type Pokémon.

The sudden arrival of Arceus and Kaido made Babanuki, who was guarding here, a little overwhelmed, and he quickly ordered all those who were doing labor reform to be sent back.

"Hurry up and take them away! Can't you see Lord Arceus and Governor Kaido coming? Move quickly!"

Then he opened the door of Rabbit Bowl.

"Why did you two adults come here suddenly? I haven't prepared anything."

"No need to prepare anything, just bring me some raw seastone ore."

"understand!"

Mining work at the Rabbit Bowl Mine has never stopped. The Country of Wano has been closed for hundreds of years. The amount of seastone that has flowed out during these hundreds of years is very small, and the amount of seastone mined in Wano Country is also very small. It can be said that the entire Rabbit Bowl area is almost entirely covered with various mineral veins.

Moreover, the speed at which this vein condenses seastone is faster than that of ordinary minerals. The current reserves are still very sufficient. Even if a lot of it is sold, there is still a large amount of raw ore stored here.

The original ore is not pure seastone, but primary ore wrapped in various impurities. In addition to seastone, there are also many other components.

"You're not going to...use Seastone to transform your Pokémon, are you?"

Kaido has seen Arceus' transformation and creative abilities more than once, and he has created or transformed real creatures many times.

So when Arceus found the new slate and came to the mine specially, and asked Babanuki to bring some raw ore, he had his own guess.

"How do you know if it works if you don't try? Let's try something simple first."

Arceus then picked out a piece of seastone ore of suitable size and injected the power of the rock slab into it.

Even as a raw ore, seastone is one of the hardest objects in Wano Country. It is a very complicated process to crush it and purify the seastone.

But the rock slab represents the origin of the rock, and all minerals are under its influence.

With the injection of power, the original piece of ore split into four or five spherical rocks, and those rocks began to shake, and two arms gradually appeared.

Although it was a rock arm, one could vaguely see the muscle lines on it. The round body began to show facial features and floated up from the ground, about a few fists above the ground.

"La ti!"

Geodude, the most basic rock-type Pokémon, the way it floats in the air has always been a mystery.

Geodude's strong body is its pride. Wild Geodudes will use their strong bodies to collide with their companions to see who is stronger.

Rock-type Pokémon have a very long lifespan. After all, their bodies are just stone, so determining Geodude's age is a mystery.

However, the longer Geodude lives, the more edges and corners are worn away, and the rounder it becomes.

These are the marks left on them by the long time. These newly born little Geodudes have clear edges and corners, some even a little sharp, which is the proof that they were just born.

Unlike ordinary Geodudes which are just a piece of stone with a human face and arms, and unlike the Alola Geodudes which have magnetic eyebrows, these Geodudes have camouflage-like patterns on their bodies.

Black and dark blue markings appear on their bodies, evidence of their seastone incorporation.

"Did you succeed or fail?"

"I'm not sure. Theoretically, it was successful, but the specific effect needs to be tested. Kaido, stretch out your hand."

During that week, Arceus ordered a small Geodude to jump into Kaido's palm. As a person with special abilities, he is the one who can best feel the seastone.

"What does it feel like?"

"Hehe, just like seastone, there's a sense of powerlessness. It looks like you really succeeded. You really did come up with something incredible!"

The effects of seastone vary depending on individual physiques. These little Geodudes are rich in seastone in their bodies, but it is not enough to restrict Kaido.

However, the ability to move seastone is undoubtedly a deadly threat to ordinary people with special abilities.

"That's half the battle. Geodude, use Rockfall on the empty space over there."

"La ti!"

At Arceus' command, a group of stones appeared out of thin air around Kaido.

It has been confirmed that the body of Geodude contains seastone components, but whether the skills it releases are made of seastone is still unknown.

As usual, Kaido grabbed a handful of things that Geodude summoned with his skill, but something didn't look right on his face.

"what happened?"

"It feels like seastone, but... it's a little strange."

Those stones still made him feel powerless, but there was a difference in quality, and he could feel that feeling slowly dissipating.

"and many more..."

After waiting for half an hour, Kaido crushed the stones into powder.

"About half an hour. During this half an hour, they have the same effect as seastone when they are made. But after about 15 minutes, the power starts to dissipate. After half an hour, they become ordinary stones."

“Is that so? Geodude, what does it feel like when you use your skills?”

“La ti…La ti!”

"Um..."

Arceus succeeded, and these little Geodudes did indeed possess new properties.

However, they cannot create seastone out of thin air. The rock-based attacks they release have the same effects as seastone at first, but will then dissipate over time.

This is enough. As long as they have the same effect as Seastone at the moment of attack, these Pokémon are the natural enemies of ability users. When they reach a certain number, the released rocks can make the ability users helpless.

Their main body is seastone, and they can achieve permanent suppression by knocking down the enemy and pressing on him.

At the same time, they are no longer afraid of water. Seastone has the same properties as the sea, which makes them highly resistant to water....

Chapter 258 Onix and Kokodora

After the successful creation of the Geodude, Arceus decided to create a few larger ones to see how they did. Babanuki brought over a lot of raw ores, which could be used to do many things.

Arceus repeated a similar action, but the energy output was greater, and the ores did not split into small balls like the Geodudes, but combined together.

Its body is made up of several huge gray rocks. The huge rocks are connected together to form a body like a giant snake. Like the Geodude, its body has dark blue and black spots and patterns. There is also a horn on its head that looks like it is made entirely of seastone.

Onix is ​​also a rock-type Pokémon that has been active in every generation. As soon as it appeared, it dug two large holes in the ground.

This is their living habit. Rock snakes can dig underground at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour. Because there are magnets in their brains, they will not lose their direction even when digging holes in the ground.

In terms of age, he is similar to Geodude. The older he gets, the rounder his body becomes, and the younger he is, the more angular his body becomes.

Such a large Onix can easily capture special ability users by binding them, without having to worry about them escaping.

"Wow... so awesome..."

Babanuki sighed as he watched the giant rock snake that had directly made a big hole in the ground. He was guarding the mining site, so he knew better how solid the ground here was. It would take several strong men most of the day to dig a small hole.

But Onix can easily drill two big holes here, and it looks very excited. That is Onix's way of training itself. They will drill in the hard rock formations and temper their bodies through squeezing.

Once enough metal minerals attach to their body surfaces and they reach a deep enough location, the high temperature and high pressure underground will give them a certain chance of evolving into Steelix.

Arceus then stopped, not because he couldn't continue creating, but because he would not be able to support too many Pokémon. These rock-type Pokémon usually have to eat some minerals, and considering that their bodies are made of seastone, seastone can become their food.

If you have too many, you really can't afford to support them, but you can consider getting some ordinary Rock Snakes and putting them on other islands to mine, or directly dig out an underground palace under the Red Earth Continent.

Five Geodudes and two Onixes were the result this time.

Newly born Pokémon will inevitably feel hungry, and the remaining ores become their food. However, they only eat a small amount of ores containing seastone, and most of them are ordinary rocks.

However, some of the ore was left untouched.

"Babanuki, what is that?"

Looking at the ore with a strange color, Arceus asked the manager here.

"Is that... iron ore from the wine mine? Who told you to bring this here?"

The precious minerals in Wano Country are not just seastone. Torrefaction is also a special mineral here. The demon swords in the Kitetsu series contain this ingredient.

Seastone products are mainly used as prisoner tools, and the reason why Wano Country's weapons are so outstanding is that they contain iron ore. This type of iron ore has better texture and can improve the performance of weapons.

The mining and smelting of this ore is much more harmful than seafloor stone. The toxic gas and wastewater generated in the Tuwan factory are closely related to the iron ore.
