Chapter 488: Distress Signal!
The two invitations in Luo Ya's hand, one of which was from Vegapunk, plus the "big gift" he gave him, his friendly attitude was undoubtedly revealed, and Luo Ya was also happy to chat with him and test some information.
The two of them sat down at the white dining table, and the staff ran over and placed the small box that could isolate sound and sight at their feet.
It was a twenty-centimeter-square metal box with green lights at the four corners of the front-facing end, which were turned off until it was placed on the ground. The box is surrounded by something resembling a baffle, with thumb-sized holes in a hexagonal shape. Through the round hole, Loya was able to see the intricate structure of the instrument inside.
Seeing that Luo Ya's attention was on the box, Vegapunk smiled: "This is a gadget I invented, with your observation, I believe that the specific effect does not need me to explain more." As for how it works......"
Vegapunk looked up at Loya: "It's like a sand fruit......"
Same as rustling fruit?
Loya immediately understood what Vegapunk wanted to explain, presumably this invention was also a Devil Fruit item he created after discovering the conditions for the Devil Fruit to be communicated.
Not only that, but Loya also thought of the fruit for what it really was, and its previous owner, the late Don Quixote Rosinandi.
The ability of the Silent Fruit......
If this is the fruit, then the conversation between the two can indeed be relieved, and there is no need to worry about being known by outsiders.
"The more I come into contact with you, the more I really admire you......" Luo Ya sincerely admired: "In this world where scientific development is deformed, as a scientist, you must be under a lot of pressure......
"Who's to say it isn't?"
Vegapunk scratched his fluffy hair and smiled helplessly: "But even so, I am a scientist, and I should take the responsibility of a scientist......"
"Responsibility?" Luo Ya suddenly snorted disdainfully: "Research and development of human weapons, explore the forbidden abyss? Is this the responsibility of scientists? ”
What is science for?
It is not something that exists to explore mysteries.
From ancient times to the present, what can be called science is born for the development and continuation of the race. And now Vegapunk has put aside the big and righteous thoughts, and instead pursues something deeper, completely ignoring the consequences of his own cause.
This kind of "responsibility", I bah!
For Luoya's performance, Vegapunk lost his mind slightly, and then his eyes were full of enthusiasm: "Mr. Luoya is really ingenious, and he can see the essence of what I am doing at a glance!" ”
The birth of the pacifist and the discovery of the bloodline factor are all unfathomable knowledge in the eyes of others, and even the world government only thinks how useful this power can be, and never thinks about the finer things in it.
However, only Vegapunk knew how dangerous and evil what he was doing. The "life blueprint", which seems to be able to give human beings extremely powerful power, is a very positive thing. But in reality, it is a forbidden abyss that should not be touched, a dangerous journey accompanied by despair and fear.
Facing Loya, he could see the essence of the matter at a glance, and Vegapunk felt that this gamble was right!
However, seeing Luoyan's unkind eyes, Vegapunk knew that he still needed to explain. Cautiously glancing around, Vegapunk quietly rolled up his sleeves and immediately put them down.
The exposed wrist flashed, but it was enough for Loya to see clearly.
"What's that?"
Luo Ya asked in some surprise, at the place of Vegapunk's wrist, a black rune that exuded a terrifying aura was clinging to his skin, and even Luo Ya now felt an indescribable threat from that rune.
"A means of controlling me, and a last ...... insurance"
Vegapunk said a little haggardly, "You know what? I used to think that the 'life plan' was a great discovery, and through the bloodline factor, human beings can be born with great power......"
"Later, you were arrested by the World Government, and you actually turned to work for the World Government, I know all this......" Luo Ya waved his hand, not interested in listening to him talk about these old calendars.
I watched a lot of movies, and I don't have to think about it to know what Vegapunk has experienced. With that dangerous rune in his body, all words are not really needed.
The word "once" told Loya that Vegapunk had now changed his mind. He had learned about the terrible consequences of touching the taboo and tried to resist the further research, but it was clear that he was imprisoned.
The World Government forces him to conduct dangerous and forbidden research in an attempt to create a terrifying army that has always been enough to destroy the world. The birth of the Pacifist is one such result, including man-made Devil Fruits, including various Devil Fruit items.
"So...... What are you looking for me? Or rather, how can I help you? ”
With short hands and soft mouths, Vegapunk's research data really helped Loya, and this causal Loya must be repaid. Just like those ungrateful and unfamiliar white-eyed wolves, this is how Loya is.
"Since Mr. Loya knows so much, then I'll get straight to the point......"
Vegapunk took out a sealed envelope from his bosom and handed it to Loya: "After years of hard work, I finally found some clues about this rune. Take this and go to Baldigo, the 'island of white soil', where someone will tell you what to do. ”
Baldigo ......
The headquarters of the [SILENC] army......
In response, Loya smiled: "Don't you know the friction between me and them? ”
"But you should have a deeper meaning...... "Vegapunk looked at Loya calmly, obviously a question, but the words he said were so firm and abnormal.
Luo Ya narrowed her eyes slightly, and said in a strange tone.
Sure enough, the "tyrant" Xiong, a cadre of the [Silenced] Army, is willing to accept the transformation of pacifists, and even be erased from thinking, and there is indeed a reason for Vegapunk.
Looking at the original work, it can also be found that the relationship between Vegapunk and the [Silenced] Army is not so simple. "Straw Hat" Luffy, as a wanted criminal on the World Government's key arrest list, and the chief scientist of the scientific unit of the Navy Headquarters, Vegapunk has no reason to agree to Xiong's final request to protect the Sonny until they return.
The world government and the pirates are always opposed, and the prototype of the bear has not returned for two years, and it is impossible for them not to find out what is wrong with it. However, this was the reality, and the Sunny survived the two years without incident, until Frankie returned to the Sonny, and then returned to the Navy headquarters.
Vegapunk plays a much bigger role in this than it was mentioned in the original book. Its own connection to the [Silenced] Army is sufficient to explain the reason for this risky move.
In order to prevent the research from continuing, Vegapunk also tried his best.
