Arceus' Pirate Journey

On a passenger ship in the East China Sea, Sanji, who had just finished helping in the kitchen, saw the movie being shown in the restaurant from the window. Looking at the mermaid girl under the sea, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Not all places are showing this film. For example, the Kingdom of Goa in the East China Sea considers this film a banned film. In their opinion, there is nothing more stupid than promoting such a foreign race.

The movie has slightly changed the world's view of Fishman Island, but it will not fundamentally affect anything.

Cultural influence is a subtle process. Many years later, those who have watched the film and arrived at Fishman Island may change their minds and do something different.

...

After a short rest, Yamato and Quinn continued to move towards the trading island, as the time for the transaction was approaching.

In Punk Hazard's research institute, the metal residue brought back by Keima has appeared on the experimental table. At this time, a slightly fat man with a robot-like appearance like a clockwork key on his head is studying it.

The 04 on his chest indicates his identity. He is an incarnation of Vegapunk. In order to have more research time, Vegapunk conducted magical research on himself and eventually gave birth to many of himself.

The number one custard apple represents "integrity"

Lilith II represents "evil"

Edison No. 3 represents "thought"

Pythagoras number 4 represents "wisdom"

Atlas No. 5 represents "violent"

York number six represents "desire"

There is a mysterious connection between these six clones. With only York No. 6 providing food and drink, the other clones can remain in their prime.

"Did Quinn do this?"

"Not sure, just suspected Quinn, these are some battle scenes recorded by CP0, please take a look."

The assistant next to him turned on the screen next to him. It was the scene of Genesect leading Yamato and Kaji to fight, which CP0 had secretly recorded before the operation.

Looking at the transformed Genesect, Pythagoras' eyes showed a strong interest. He had studied the subject of memory metal, but it was not perfect. Even what Kaji had said before was just a barely usable material obtained by trial and error.

But judging from Genesect's performance, this is obviously a more complete technology.

Complex instruments began to analyze the metal fragments, but in the end found nothing. This was not any existing metal. The failure of the instrument actually cheered up Pythagoras.

"Interesting, interesting. Has Quinn already touched upon this realm? Get out and don't bother me. I don't have time to care about you guys anymore."

Vegapunk's clone almost turned against him. He drove the assistant out and picked up the new equipment to start his own research.

While Vegapunk was studying how the material Arceus Steel came into being, Yamato and Quinn also arrived near Beast Island.

This island is called Beast Island not because there are many wild beasts on it, but because of the unique trees here. These trees grow in completely irregular ways, and each one grows like the remains of wild beasts.

The top of the mountain in the center of the island looks like the head of an unknown beast from a distance, so it is named Beast Island.

In the center of the island, the Don Quixote family had been waiting for two days.

This kind of long-distance transaction cannot be timed precisely, and can only be planned within a rough range, but Doflamingo now has a very wrong feeling.

"Torrebol, when was the last time that old woman caught up with you?"

"It's been three months, Dover, and she hasn't been able to track us down in these three months."

Doflamingo tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair, but his expression was very ugly. During that period of time, Crane had stuck to him like a plaster and he could not get rid of it no matter what. Even if he changed his base, the other party would come to him in half a month.

Someone was deliberately leaking his whereabouts, but he didn't know who that person was.

"Dover, Corazon just left three months ago..."

"I hope it's not him... Let Virgo speed up. He'd better climb high enough as soon as possible and find out who this person is."

"I understand, but Dover, are we really going to give them those two fruits for free? This one is fine, but that one is an ancient species."

Seeing that Doflamingo didn't want to talk more about the traitor, Trebol quickly changed the subject.

Pointing at the two fruits on the table, Trebol felt a little reluctant. Those were the goods they used to trade with the Beasts Pirates, the Animal-type·Elephant-Elephant Fruit·Elephant Form and the Animal-type·Elephant-Elephant Fruit·Ancient Type·Mammoth Form.

The ordinary elephant fruit was nothing special, but the ancient seed was very important to them.

“Hey, hey, hey, hey, Torrebol, don’t be so petty. They are all beasts. Whether in the new world or the underground world, they are overlords. As long as we establish contact with them, we will get even more.

It’s just a small effort, but if it works, it’s all worth it.”

Chapter 500: Pure "Free" Behavior

It is unknown when Jack in the original timeline acquired his ability, but it is certain that it was after he became an adult. According to other people's memories, the historical text on the bottom of the sea in Wano Inland Sea was discovered by the adult Jack.

Now, due to a series of butterfly effects, this fruit has fallen into Doflamingo's hands.

As for the ordinary Elephant-Elephant Fruit, it was originally going to be traded to the World Government, but now because of the change in Doflamingo's plan, this Elephant-Elephant Fruit also has new arrangements.

It is common for gangs to rob each other in the underworld, but those are just local tyrants who do one-time business and can never achieve anything big.

For the underground world, the character of the trader is very important. Once some bad news comes out, other forces will try to avoid continuing the transaction.

Nowadays, Baishou has a good reputation in the underground world. As long as they don't have any bad intentions, they will not take the initiative to disrupt the terms of the transaction.

Originally, they had to guard against being backstabbed by the other party, such as contacting the navy during the transaction. Doflamingo also considered that the appearance of Crane was related to this, but it was obviously not normal that this happened several times.

He doesn't worry about this problem in this transaction. As one of the most powerful pirates in the New World, Baishou will not have any connection with the Navy.

The World Government is the World Government, and the Navy is the Navy. Although the Navy is a subordinate force of the World Government, they cannot be confused.

Even if it is Doflamingo's own plan, his future trading target is the World Government, not the Navy. As a former Celestial Dragon, he knows too many secrets that ordinary people don't know.

"Dover, they're coming."

While Doflamingo and Trebol were talking, a sharp voice came from outside the door, and then a tall and strong man walked in.

He is Pica, one of the cadres of Don Quixote's family. His sharp voice is his characteristic and also something he hates. If anyone laughs at him in this regard, he will be furious.

At the same time, Pica and Trebol chose Doflamingo as their main person. He was also one of his most trusted cadres and was the one who had been monitoring the situation at the seaside before.

"Are you here? You're really punctual."

"Well, but they only came with two people, "Plague" Quinn and an unknown girl, and the other two were strange flying machines."

"It doesn't matter. As long as they are from the Beast Realm, it's enough. Let's go. The transaction begins."

Yamato's existence is still unknown to the outside world. Even Keima has not figured out her identity. The only two titles known now are "Miss Yamato" and "Onihime-sama".

This was the information obtained from Quinn and Genesect during the previous battle. It was not because Quinn and the others had loud voices, but that they were in a battlefield environment at that time and did not use things like Den Den Mushi to communicate.

In this case, the other party cannot hear you at normal volume, so shouting is the only way.

But not figuring it out doesn't mean there is no clue. The person who can be called Miss by Queen can only be the child of a high-ranking member of the Beasts Pirates. Queen already holds a high position in the Beasts Pirates, so Yamato is either the daughter of Kaido or the daughter of Arceus.

Although they still had doubts about Arceus, they all regarded him as a person with special abilities with a strange personality.

This information is still being verified within the World Government, so Doflamingo certainly doesn't know about this.

The transaction went smoothly. There was no black-on-black conspiracy, and no inexplicable navy came knocking on the door. However, the development of the transaction was not quite what Doflamingo had expected.

The value of the two devil fruits is certainly not small. Although he felt that he was using the two fruits as a favor and had no intention of accepting money, according to his understanding, after he said that the transaction was free, the other party should have understood that he wanted to deepen the cooperation.

It stands to reason that smart people shouldn't think too much when speaking. If they have shown their sincerity and the other party chooses to accept it, they should give them contact information or something else. However, Quinn did not play by the rules at all. He picked up the fruit and left without saying a word.

It's not like he didn't say anything. He kindly told Doflamingo to call him again if he wanted to give him a gift next time. In a sense, this was also establishing a channel of communication, but for some reason, he always felt that this was not what he thought.

"Dover, is this considered... a success?"

Looking at Quinn and Yamato leaving on the Genesect, several cadres around him also felt that something was wrong, but the other party had already taken off, and it was impossible for them to shoot them down again.

"I guess... I guess..."

This was his first time trading with monsters from the New World, so he couldn't help but have some doubts about the trading style of the New World.

......

On the other side, Yamato, who had already left, also felt strange when looking at the two fruits in the box. She didn't encounter any trouble at all, which was also contrary to her psychological expectation.

"He doesn't want any money. He seems like a good person."

Doflamingo's free gift earned him a good guy card, a good guy card that he himself didn't even hear.

"Good guy? That guy is just an idiot, Miss Yamato. Although there is a saying that free is the most expensive, that saying is not applicable here."

Quinn could naturally understand what Doflamingo meant, but he was not qualified to talk about such things with the Beasts Pirates at the moment. Farmers in Wano Country could find a devil fruit while doing farm work, so occasionally taking out two fruits did not mean anything.

If you want the other party to do you a favor, your own status and strength must be higher than the other party, or at least equal. The gap between the two sides makes Doflamingo's behavior seem to Quinn to be just flattery.

Unless what he took out was a stone slab, this was almost a get-out-of-jail-free card within the Beasts Pirates.

"I think so too. No normal person would sell things for free. But Jack should be very happy. These two fruits should be given to his deputy."

Jack has a strange hobby for elephants, including but not limited to liking the elephants' strength and eating grilled elephant steaks. If she guessed correctly, these two fruits would most likely be given to Jack's future deputy.

This is also related to the rewards within the Beasts now. The highest level reward is Arceus' complete ability granting, followed by the devil fruit transformed by Arceus, and then the untransformed devil fruit and ordinary givers of skills belong to the third level.

If it is not a particularly powerful fruit, members of the Beasts Pirates usually want to obtain some skills. However, no one will dislike devil fruits. Although they are afraid of water, they are powers that ordinary people do not have after all.

Chapter 501: Don’t Underestimate the Landlord’s Daughter

Genesect continued to head south back to Onigashima, but halfway through, Quinn made a proposal to Yamato.

"Ms. Yamato, how about we discuss something?"

"what?"

"You see, we brought 300 million Baileys for this deal, but that Doflamingo guy didn't want the money, so the money was saved."

Three hundred million was the transaction amount they had negotiated before. Ancient species were rare, but the price was not excessive. It was just slightly higher than that of ordinary animal types. After all, most of the abilities of animal types relied on their own physical strength, which was very different from the powerful abilities brought by natural types and superhuman types.

The treasures taken away from the Kingdom of Cogia had been brought back to Onigashima by Genesect in advance, and now only these trading shares were left to them.

"so what."

"So... Miss Daiwa, why don't we quietly divide it up? 150 million each. This is a lot of pocket money."

Even for Quinn, 150 million is a huge sum of money. Anyway, it was Doflamingo who saved the money, and no one would care even if they divided it secretly. It is enough to take back two Elephant-Elephant Fruits.

He had done this a lot to make money when he was at MADS. Research funding at MADS has always been scarce, and everyone has their own research scope, and each research is a crazy money-burning project.

If you want more money for yourself, you have to find a way by yourself.

Quinn now has sufficient research funds and no longer needs to worry about money, but as a person who takes hedonism to the extreme, he still likes small amounts of money.

Although Beasts is the real ruler of Wano Country, in order to prevent the economy of Wano Country from collapsing, all cadres have to spend money to carry out activities in Wano Country.

Although he also received dividends, he could not refuse a windfall.

But Quinn is acting with Yamato, so he has to find a way to convince Yamato.

If the plan succeeds, he will be the biggest beneficiary, and the biggest victim will of course be Doflamingo, who originally wanted to spend money to make himself familiar, but ended up being intercepted by Quinn.

If he had been able to find the stone tablet that the beasts were searching for, he would definitely not have chosen this method, but he was just a devil fruit supplier, not Doraemon, so he really couldn't find everything he wanted.

Doflamingo, who was still in the North Sea, had no idea what he was going through, but Quinn's plan failed in the end because he hit a wall with Yamato.

"I do not want."

"One hundred and fifty million. You can buy a lot of things with that."

"No, it's only 150 million Baileys. My godfather will definitely be unhappy if he finds out. By the way, Uncle Quinn, I will tell my godfather and the others about your idea."

Quinn's style gradually turned grayish white, and there was a slight tendency for it to fall apart, but this was not a big problem. After all, his abilities were there, and neither Kaido nor Arceus would do anything to him for this little money.

But a lecture and special training are absolutely inevitable. This is the mistake he discovered. Although Yamato sometimes looks like the stupid son of a landlord, she is not really stupid. A mere 150 million is not likely to shake her.

To be precise, it is completely impossible to lure her with money. The Beasts Pirates are a famous warlord force in the New World, and the Beast Fruit has also developed into a world-class consortium. More than 150 million is really just pocket money for her.

She would not do anything stupid to make her parents unhappy just for such a small amount of pocket money.

Quinn began to think about how to dissuade Yamato from speaking out about this matter. It was impossible to silence him, and he didn't even dare to think about it. But he really couldn't figure out what Yamato wanted.

Just when he was about to play the victim, Yamato took the initiative to give him a way out.

"It's okay not to tell you, Uncle Quinn. I remember you said during the battle that you know all the techniques of that Germa, right?"

"Of course, Kaji's talent is no match for mine!"

Quinn was full of confidence when this was mentioned and he immediately agreed with it.

"Okay, then make me a fun combat suit. I won't tell my godfather and the others about it once you make it. Don't you agree, GT-6, GT-7?"

As he spoke, he also communicated with Genesect, otherwise they could have reported it as well.

"Um... I'll try my best, but Miss Yamato, you have to give me some time."
