Arceus' Pirate Journey

If she tried to protect her original body like the other clones, she would surely be destroyed. For her own purpose, she took this gamble.

It was costly, but she succeeded.

Vegapunk's original body was killed, and the Punk Records that stored a large number of records were destroyed, but she is still there. If the World Government still wants Vegapunk's technology, it can only rely on her or Lilith.

They are clones, but they have the same abilities as Vegapunk. Although the punk records have been lost and the technical reserves have been greatly damaged, with the support of the huge amount of data in the hands of the World Government, York and Lilith can still reproduce many things.

"Very good, now I am the only Vegapunk. No, I have to kill Lilith too. As long as she dies, I will be the only one. This is the only choice so that I can make a better deal."

Looking at his broken body, York decided to find a place to repair himself first. As for Lilith's problem...

Without the punk records, they cannot share memories. As long as they find a way to find Lilith, they can make new plans.

Meanwhile, at the original site of Egghead, the battle continued.

"Tianyu Bachiwu!"

In the high sky, shining lasers pierced through the dark clouds. The continuous lasers were like light knives, cutting through the entire battlefield. However, in the dark clouds, Zeraora broke through in front of Kizaru, bathed in lightning.

"Plasma Blade!"

A variation of Zeraora's exclusive move, Plasma Lightning Fist. Plasma current is attached to the claw blades. As Zeraora swings his arms, the electric blades outside his body turn into invisible crushers, chewing up Kizaru in front of him into a sky full of flashes.

There were many burnt marks on Zeraora's fur, and Kizaru's suit also became tattered. Compared with the Battle of Marineford, this was a serious injury.

"You're getting more and more terrifying. You weren't this scary back then."

"Same here. You weren't so serious before. Next time we meet, you won't be so anxious."

"next time?"

Kizaru's attention returned to Egghead, which had already turned into a land of ice and snow.

Seraphim are not easy to deal with, but after all, they are just a group of children who have not grown up at all. As a veteran general, after knowing the weaknesses of Seraphim, Kuzan can still find a way to deal with Seraphim.

Moreover, in this thunder and snow weather, he can rely on elementalization to avoid the indiscriminate attacks of lightning and lasers from above, but the Seraphim can't. Under the influence of Zeraora and Kizaru's AoE, they are finally turned into ice in Kuzan's cold current...

Chapter 1122 Preference and Misfortune, the Windy World

Any negligence in the battle between top-level strongmen can be fatal. The combat experience of Seraphim is not perfect enough. Every experiment is a learning process. This time they were involved in a battle between three extremely powerful people.

Zeraora's lightning and Kizaru's laser are both extremely fast elemental attacks. During the battle, the two cannot care about where the extra attacks are hit, and the Seraphim will inevitably be attacked.

If they don't switch modes, lightning and lasers will make their bodies stiff, and Kuzan will take the opportunity to attack. If they want to avoid the two elements of lightning and flash, they have to switch modes, and the reduction of defense will also give Kuzan an opportunity.

Having lost its commander, the Seraph, which had just appeared on the scene and had not even undergone much debugging, still exposed certain shortcomings.

Kacha....

The bodies of S-Snake and S-Eagle were smashed by Kuzan, but there was no fear on Bingdiao's face. As a biological weapon, the Seraph at this time had no idea of ​​the meaning of his own existence.

Receive orders and execute them, this is all that Seraphim know. To them, death only means mission failure.

Katcha.

With another sound, Kuzan stepped on the ice that fell on the ground and crushed it. Even for a Seraph, after being completely frozen, the toughness of his body was no different from that of ice.

Once broken into pieces of ice, there is no possibility of recovery even if it is thawed.

"Borsalino, it's time to end. I don't want to continue fighting with you."

"You say you don't want to fight, but your actions don't suggest it, Kuzan."

"There's nothing I can do. If you still want to fight, then I'll have to accompany you.

Those weapons have been destroyed, our mission has ended, and the people you are trying to protect are not here. There is no benefit for you to continue delaying."

Kizaru did not answer Kuzan, but analyzed the situation. The signal was blocked by Zeraora and the message could not be transmitted. Given Egghead's position, it was impossible for reinforcements to come to him.

The two Seraphim were defeated and Kuzan was freed. If Zeraora's speed could keep up with him, it would be a big trouble if Kuzan really attacked him.

Similarly, if he chooses to retreat, Zeraora has the ability to catch up with him and engage in a fight with him, but Kuzan can't. The difference in the ability of the fruit makes it impossible for Kuzan to fight at high altitudes for a long time.

Kizaru couldn't keep Zeraora who was determined to leave, and Zeraora couldn't keep Kizaru who was determined to retreat.

"Kuzan, you're still the same."

Kizaru's gaze shifted to the location of Zhan Taomaru, which was a rare intact area on Egghead. It had been turned into an ice tomb by Kuzan's ability, in which Zhan Taomaru's body was preserved intact.

"But what you have done now has confirmed that we are enemies."

"This thing... who can say it well?"

Egghead fell into silence again, with only the snow and thunderstorms telling of what had happened before. In the end, Kizaru left Egghead with Zhan Taomaru's body. There was no point for him to stay there alone.

Zeraora did not waste time on Kizaru. After finding the location of the Howler King, he returned to Wano Country with Kuzan.

Lilith in the surrounding sea did not return to Egghead. While the battle continued, she controlled the robot to go to other bases. Due to the information interruption, she did not know that there were problems with her original body and other clones. At this time, only York, who had ulterior motives, was left.

......

The speed of the Howler Whale King was much slower than that of Shaina, who had obtained the power of the Blue Sky Slate. Moreover, on the return journey, they did not stay in the belly of the Howler Whale King, but sat on its back and slowly returned to Wano Country as if they were on an outing.

Compared to the two of them, Sha Yinna returned to Onigashima earlier.

On the roof of Onigashima, there is a landing terrace specially prepared for cadres who can fly, and there is even a runway for take-off, which is used for some special personnel who need a running start to take off smoothly.

As Shayna landed, the blue sky slate that originally resided in her body was summoned by Arceus and separated from Shayna's body.

Attracted by this breath, nearby Pokémon also revealed their figures. The Hunting Swallowtail Butterflies curiously circled around the Blue Sky Slab, with a hint of awe in their desire, and finally just flew nearby.

It was now noon, which was originally the sleeping time for the poisonous powder moths, but they were guided by this breath and woke up from their slumber, forming two distinct teams with the hunting swallowtail butterflies.

Some blue birds also landed directly on Shayna's shoulders. The breath of blue sky slate also remained in her body, which was extremely attractive to flying Pokémon.

Some bluebirds in the clouds above were looking at Sha Yinna curiously, while the bird on her shoulder was a bolder species.

Bird Pokémon - Chickadee.

It looks like a round blue bird, more like a ball than a bird, but the black hair on the face and connecting the chest and abdomen form a mask-like decoration.

Their eyes look big, but it is just an illusion. The white part around their eyes is not the eyes, but patterns. There are patterns in them that are invisible to the human eye and can make cowardly Pokémon feel afraid.

These young titmice were not recently created by Arceus, but were hatched by a group of Steelix. Although they were extremely powerful in their final form, they were as immature as sparrows in their initial form.

But it would be a pity to underestimate them because of their appearance. Young tits can use their small size to fly at high speeds.

They dare to challenge enemies that are several times their size. Even if they fail, as long as they are still alive, they will grow quickly and learn from their experiences and lessons.

By the way, the chickadees are mysophobic and take great care of their feathers. If you dirty their feathers, they will retaliate, and they... also don't like the giant blacksmith.

The chirping sounds of young tits came into Sha Yina's ears, and at the same time, several larger birds flew in front of her, even holding a basket in their claws.

They are the evolved blue jays of the young tits. With more training, they will become the new steel crows.

As the name suggests, the blue jay looks like a blue and black crow, inheriting the white markings next to its eyes from its juvenile titmouse period. It has also become smarter and its claws more flexible. It can even use ropes to independently complete packaging work when transporting goods.

Now these blue crows carrying baskets are preparing for their future life as taxi drivers, which in a sense can be considered as employing child labor.

"Okay, make way. I need to go see the Holy Beast Master."

Shayna knew very well that the affinity of these Pokémon was not because of her, but because of the remaining aura of the Arceus Slate.

When she successfully entered the Onigashima, the Pokémon also flew around the Onigashima but did not enter it.

......

"Master Holy Beast, I am here to ask for forgiveness."

As soon as she came in front of Arceus, Shayna made her purpose clear. It was not to seek credit, but to plead guilty.

"You did a good job in bringing back the slate. There is no sin in that."

"No, this is out of my own selfishness. I destroyed Vegapunk's precious research records. Those research and inventions may have a lot of valuable things, but...

I'm sorry, I couldn't control my anger at the time. Those biological weapons made with the blood of the Lunaria people... made me disgusted to the extreme. "

"It doesn't matter. It's just a piece of technology. There's not much difference between having it and not having it. The world is big and it won't stop just because of the lack of a Vegapunk. He is worthless compared to you."

"But...."

"No buts. Since you want to punish me, then I'll punish you to put down your work for a while and go relax. A lot of things will be finished soon. Just be patient and wait."

As he spoke, Arceus took the Blue Sky Slate back into his body, and a strange cyclone appeared out of nowhere above the Onigashima Island. In Sha Yinna's perception, Arceus at this moment was like the center of the sea of ​​stars, with the vast starry sky behind him.

A strange monsoon, centered on Ghost Island, affected almost half of the New World. Wherever the monsoon passed, fallen leaves and petals fluttered in the air, forming a strange picture in the sky.

Residents of Dressrosa, New Fishman Island, Cake Island, Sphinx Island and many other islands all felt the sudden warm hurricane.

But in Baldigo, the dragon's eyes were looking towards the source of the wind.

"This world...is about to get windy."

He placed the newspaper in his hand on the table. The news that the genius scientist Vegapunk had died had begun to spread around the world...

It will take some time for the news to spread, and Sha Yina also wandered around Wano Country aimlessly.

The punishment was to let her rest, but she had nothing to do when she was free. She originally wanted to talk to Jin, but Jin was wandering outside with Kaido at this time, and she couldn't find him at all.

It is at this time that a person appears in the wrong place at the wrong time and meets the wrong person.

Looking at Sha Yinna in front of him, Quinn had a dazed look on his face and turned around to run away. He never expected that Sha Yinna had come back.

He had clearly called Zeraora before, and Zeraora told him personally that they were still five days away from Onigashima.

But less than five minutes had passed since he hung up the phone, and Sha Yinna appeared in front of him.

Quinn hung up the phone in a hurry and didn't even hear what Zeraora said next. He didn't know that Sha Yinna and Zeraora had already split up.

"Quinn, stop right there! Why are you running when you see me? What bad things have you done?"

"Don't slander me! I haven't been anywhere these days, what can I do!"

"It's better that you didn't do it, but I suddenly have a question now. Tell me honestly, do you know about the Vegapunk biological weapon plan and to what extent did you participate in it?"

Chapter 1123 Quine's Metaphysics and Drake's Economics

"Biological weapons? What are you talking about? You were looking for the stone tablet for Lord Arceus, so why are you talking about something like this?"

Quinn had a bad feeling and did not answer Sha Yinna's question immediately. Instead, he wanted to clarify the situation first.

"I killed that big-headed monster on the way. The new issue of the newspaper hasn't arrived yet. You'll know when you read it."

"Big Head Monster... Wait, you killed that guy Vegapunk? Didn't you just finish the mission?"

"The one that just ended was Zeraora. We had been acting separately before, and now it's been a day.

The Holy Beast lent me some strength, so I came back a little early."

Shayna's answer solved Quinn's doubts, and he also figured out why Shayna returned to Onigashima so early, but the news of Vegapunk's death still surprised him.

"You just...killed him?"

“Yeah, is there a problem? I will never forget what happened at Punk Hazard, not to mention that the bastard actually used our blood to create biological weapons.

You hadn't left at that time, so you wouldn't be completely unaware of this kind of thing."

Sha Yinna's words reminded Quinn of what happened decades ago, when the MADS team was still carrying out their own adventure on the sea, and even the funds were funded by Du Field, the loan shark leader of the underground world.

Quinn had no attachment to Vegapunk. MADS was just a group temporarily united by interests, and the relationship between them was not close.

The members hardly get along with each other. Everyone looks down on the other members and thinks that they are the best.

After capturing the Lunarians...

[The legendary race of gods that can survive in any environment, their resistance is really terrifyingly strong. 】

[If their genes were integrated into human beings, it should be possible to achieve a strong effect. ]

When Quinn read the World Government's order and combined it with what they had discussed before, he suddenly understood why Shayna killed Vegapunk without thinking. It was a good thing that she didn't slice Vegapunk directly.

Now, for Quinn, it doesn’t matter whether Vegapunk is dead or not. What matters is how he can get out of it.

admit...

No, I must not admit it!

"I haven't heard of it. I don't know what you are talking about. I don't even know what that weapon looks like."

"They have the characteristics of Lunarians, white hair, brown skin, black wings, and flames burning behind them like us, but they look like Hancock and Hawkeye when they were little, and they even inherited some of the fruit abilities.

To be honest, even after beating you for so many years, I will never kill you."

In less than 0.1 second, Quinn had grasped the key point in Sha Yinna's words. Not killing and not taking action are two different concepts. She only said that she would not kill, but did not say that she would not take action.
