"Of course, why am I lying to you?"

Hailan squatted down, touched Chopper's wet hair, and looked directly into Chopper's eyes and replied.

Chopper tilted his head and asked, "Then why are you okay?" ”

"Maybe I'm lucky."

Hailan didn't dwell on this topic with Chopper, he changed his words and said, "What is the principle that rumba ball can promote the development of Devil Fruit abilities?" ”

Seeing that Hailan didn't look like there was something wrong at all, Chopper breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "The rumba ball can disrupt the transformation wavelength of the animal-based devil fruit, so that the transformation can be increased to seven modes, including weight enhancement, jump enhancement, fur enhancement, wrist strength enhancement, brain enhancement, horn enhancement, and foot strength enhancement. ”

Hailan felt that something was not quite right.

He also thought that the "seven transformations" mentioned by Chopper were to add four more transformation forms to the three basic transformation forms of "human form", "beast form", and "human and animal form", and it turned out to be only partial strengthening?

In fact, six of the seven enhancements mentioned by Chopper are just the normal abilities of Devil Fruits, like Kaido, who comes with six enhancements, as for the "mind enhancement...... Anyway, I can't understand what kind of ability this is, but Hailan didn't bother, since the other six are just general abilities, this mind enhancement shouldn't be much stronger, maybe it's a temporary improvement of his computing ability.

It seems that the real value of the rumba ball is in promoting the awakening of the Devil Fruit.

Instead of directly rejecting Chopper's research results, Hailan changed the question and said, "What kind of reinforcement is madness?" ”

"I didn't develop the madness on purpose, it should be a false reinforcement."

At this, Chopper lowered his head in shame, and his voice gradually became quieter, like a child who realized that he had made a big mistake.

"No, that's not a mistake."

Hailan didn't mean to reproach Chopper at all, "Do you know, Chopper, your madness is actually the awakening of the animal-based Devil Fruit!" ”

"Really?"

As soon as Hailan said this, Chopper immediately came to his senses, and his eyes were shining.

"Of course it's true, when did I lie to you?"

Hailan smiled and said to Chopper: "Continue to work development, research with the doctor, if it doesn't work, let the doctor ask the scientists of the scientific research department for help, you must develop a rumba ball that can stably control the ability to awaken." ”

Although the natural and superhuman systems do not use rumba balls, if they can develop a finished product without side effects, it will definitely be a boon to those in the navy who have animal abilities.

Of course, Hailan wants to encourage and support Chopper.

Hearing Hailan's words, Chopper nodded vigorously with joy on his face: "Hmm! I'll try! ”

"It's been a long time since you tossed, Chopper, you're hungry too, aren't you? Come home with me and I'll make you something to eat. Call the doctor as well. ”

"Hailan, you're so good!"

Fortunately, Hailan arrived in time, and the rampaging Chopper did not cause any substantial damage, and the three of them walked back with a smile and a smile.

On the way back, Hailan was thoughtful.

Devil Fruit is truly a magical power.

It can become stronger through cultivation; It can also be developed through brain holes; It can also be studied using scientific theories; It can even be related to the microscopic world and wavelengths; No wonder even Vegapunk can only say that this is an idealistic ability.

"When I was in school, I remember my teacher saying that light is both a wave and an energy particle, which seems to be called wave-particle duality."

For the memories of the past, Hai Lan at that time did not have the ability to "remember by sight", he couldn't remember much, but Hai Lan was not worried, because the Devil Fruit is an "idealistic" ability, and it is not necessary to figure out every detail and principle like scientific research, as long as you know a general direction, it is possible to achieve an incredible ability.

……

Time is like a flowing river, rolling forward day and night.

The "decisive day" agreed upon by Pheasant and Akainu is getting closer and closer, and more and more high-ranking naval officials are gradually learning about it.

In the New World, Iron Ore Island, Steam Steel Works, Vice Admiral Jonathan is playing chess with an old friend, Sakasky, who is about to compete with Admiral Kuzan for the post of Admiral of the Navy.

Chiseled through icebergs, waded through magma, got used to seeing the red dogs in nature, and even came to this steam steel factory to experience the heat of molten steel.

Tomorrow is the day of the decisive battle, and on the last day before this decisive battle, Akainu, who has always practiced day and night, quieted down, and he no longer tossed himself, but sat in Jonathan's office, playing chess with his old friend.

Moving the "knight" on the chessboard, Jonathan said worriedly for the red dog: "Sakasky, this is not like you, there is a decisive battle tomorrow, but today you are relaxed, is this good?" ”

"I've experienced countless battles, I've practiced countless days and nights, and the place that should be perfected has long been perfected, and I don't have the habit of sharpening my guns in battle."

Akainu's "chariot" advances and knocks Jonathan's knight out of the battlefield.

Jonathan didn't care, but casually mobilized a "soldier".

He knew that his old friend was right, that Sakasky's usual hard work and Kuzan's usual laziness were clear to him.

But he still sweats for Sakasky, because Jonathan believes that Kuzan's talent is higher than Sakasky's - how can a lazy man who is two years younger be able to compete with a hard-working senior? There seems to be only one explanation for "talent".

Kuzan has shown unprecedented efforts in this last month, and no one can guarantee that Kuzan will not break new ground on the immediate.

Worries are worries, but Jonathan can't do anything for Sakasky, so he has to say: "I didn't expect you to be able to maintain a normal heart in the face of such a big thing, but this is actually the best." ”

"Jonathan, you seem to be more nervous than I am."

Saying that, Sakaski's knight didn't know when to directly kill Jonathan's "bishop", "It's not like you. ”

Jonathan didn't answer, but looked at the chessboard, and after observing it for a long time, he realized that his "king" had no more soldiers to use before he knew it.

Jonathan leaned back to the couch, "You won, Sakasky." ”

"It's been all these years, and this is the first time I've beaten you on a chessboard, Jonathan."

Akainu, who had been staring at the chessboard, finally looked up at his old friend, "Do you know why you lost?" ”

"Why? I'd love to hear about it. ”

"Your heart is in turmoil."

Akainu stared into Jonathan's eyes, "You're not putting all your energy into what you're doing. ”
