Ian took it and pinched it between his fingers to look at it, but found that the white crystal was a translucent object, but strangely, the inside seemed to be hollow.

Looking at it, Ian suddenly found that there was a thunderbolt inside the crystal!

Although the thunder light was only fleeting, it startled Ian, rubbing his eyes, he thought he was dazzled.

"What is this?" Ian looked at Konanayi and asked in surprise, "I seem to see that there is electricity in it......"

Konanayi smiled slightly: "You read that right, this is indeed an electric current, in fact, this ore was only discovered by the miners recently!" ”

"What do you mean?" Ian asked, "Have they been digging for so long that they don't know what they're digging?" ”

"I don't want to say it, but it seems to be true!" Konanayi shook his head and said: "At first, the miners did think that the One Piece King wanted them to dig gem mines, but what they dug out was only raw ore, and these raw ores were all pulled to the palace, where it seems that a smelter was made, and what was specifically refined, they didn't know before, they always thought it was a gem, but later someone took the risk to sneak into the smelter, only to find that the ore they dug was finally refined from this kind of stone. ”

"In other words, the so-called gem mine has already been dug up, right?" Ian picked up the crystal and looked at it again.

"Yes, the miners didn't know what it was called at first, but then they discovered the properties of this thing......" Konanai took the crystal from Ian's hand, and then drew his knight's sword, leaning the tip of the sword slightly towards the crystal.

Then, a wonderful scene appeared, on the white crystal, there was a loud bang, and a strong electric current flowed towards Konanayi's long sword!

Since the hilt of the sword was wrapped in leather, Konanayi was not afraid of being electrocuted, so she held her longsword and kept it still, and the crystal continued to release electricity towards her longsword.

Ian and Zick were stunned, they didn't expect this white crystal to be used like this!?

"See?" Konanayi put away his long sword, and the white crystal also ended the discharge phenomenon, Konanayi put the crystal in his hand and threw it, and said, "The miners finally gave this crystal a name, called 'Thunderstone'!" Even if this thing is just put in your hand, it will not be electrocuted, but once it is in close contact with a metal conductor, it will produce a continuous discharge phenomenon, and the accumulated electrical energy is quite amazing, such a small piece of thunderbolt can actually release two hours of continuous electric energy. ”

"So, the agreement between the One Piece King and the World Government is not to provide this kind of thunderbolt?" Ian frowned and said, "After all, just a scarce gem will definitely not be able to impress the World Government......"

"Yes, the miners are so suspicious!" Ko Nanai said: "The scarcity of gem mines, the Four Emperor Pirates are naturally not interested, and this kind of thunder stone, for the Four Emperor Pirates, is of little use, but the world government is different, they have special scientists in the development of new technology, maybe this kind of energy ore, they can use it, so the pirate king will use this ore as a condition in exchange for the world government's support for him, which leads to the fact that even if he becomes a pirate as a king, the world government can still pretend not to see ......"

"Energy Ore...... Wait a minute! Ian suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but gasp, and hurriedly asked Ko Nanayi: "You just said that the Pirate King came to the throne eight years ago?" ”

"Well, yes, what's wrong?" Konanayi asked.

What's wrong? It's a big problem! The name of this so-called thunder stone reminds Ian of a noun: the original moving stone!

This prime mover is also a kind of energy ore, which contains quite a huge amount of energy, if according to the original history, the general Zefa, who fought with Ian, will completely rebel against the navy after Edward Weibull was invited by the world government to join the Seven Martial Seas, and he will take the new navy NEO, which was reorganized from the original pirate guerrillas, into the new world, seize this ore called the prime moving stone, and want to use this prime moving stone to detonate the volcano of the new world and completely bury the new world.

What the original moving stone looks like, Ian doesn't know, but the thundering stone in front of him reminds Ian of one thing.

That is the PX program of the Naval Science Corps, that is, the artificial human weapon program!

That's right, it's the human body transformation that Uncle Xiong is participating in!

Ian has always felt that the technology in this world is very black technology, similar to the kind of technology tree is crooked, obviously there is technology such as submarines and steamships, but the navy still uses sail warships, obviously most of the firearms and weapons and cannons seem to be quite backward, but they can develop artificial people......

Well, these Ian can't figure it out, and can only be roughly attributed to the reason for Begabank's super genius, which is too far ahead, so there is black technology.

And the human weapon project that Uncle Xiong participated in is a model of an artificial person, but since it is an artificial person, it must be driven by energy, and the kind of attack that sends out high-energy lasers from the mouth and hands can't always be generated out of thin air, right?

Can be used as an artificial energy source, the first thing Ian thought of was Coke...... No way, who told Frankie that pervert to use Coke as an energy source......

However, as a human weapon used by the dignified naval science unit, the energy used by Uncle Xiong after being transformed can't be the same as Frankie, coke, right?

Therefore, Ian guessed that it was Uncle Xiong and his clone weapons that were using this little thunderbolt in front of him!

This ore, which contains a lot of electricity, is perfectly used as a power source to power the steel body of the cyborg.

The reason why Ian suddenly thought of this is the time, according to the news from Konanayi, this pirate king came here eight years ago to become the king, and then grabbed the miners to mine for him, if he found the world government at that time and provided them with this thunderstone, then the reasoning is valid.

Get this kind of energy ore, naval scientists will definitely study it, I don't know how long this time is, and Uncle Xiong's body transformation is also a long process, not overnight, when exactly when the transformation began, Ian does not know, but he can roughly estimate that this time lasted for several years.

Therefore, Ian estimated that it was after obtaining the Thunderbolt from the World Government that the PX Artificial Human Weapon Project was born.

"! If you can master the refining technology of this thunderbolt in your hands, wouldn't you be able to get a steady stream of money from the world government? Ian thought as he took the thunderbolt.

At first, Ian just wanted to get a piece of territory, but since he had his own territory, he must have a career that could support his own income, Bailey is a good thing, and if Ian wants to recruit more subordinates to strengthen his power, then money is indispensable.

In addition, Ian's own card system is also a bottomless pit for swallowing money, so finding a way to make money on his own turf is the top priority.

In fact, if you want to get money, it must be the easiest to collect protection fees, and as soon as his identity of the Seven Martial Seas is announced, he can find any country, or he can collect this kind of fee in the form of sheltering the other party.

It's just that there is a degree problem with this method, if the collection is too high, it will definitely cause the disgust of the other party's people, and if the collection is too low, Ian himself is not satisfied, because unless it is the kind of country that is so rich that it is full of oil, otherwise, how much can the protection fee for the Seven Martial Seas be given a month? One or two million Baileys is considered to be the sky......

Therefore, it is safer to find a way to make money.

And now, this thunderous stone suddenly appeared in front of him, and he couldn't help but be moved.

You know, this thunderbolt is an ore containing electric energy, and electrical energy can not only be used as a driving energy for artificial people, in fact, the use of electrical energy is the most extensive, as long as more ways to use thunderbolt are developed, it means that the demand for thunderbolt will be greater and greater, and then he can make it just by selling thunderbolt......

Not only Ian thought so, but even Zike thought about it, so they stared at the thunderbolt with bright eyes.

The more Ian thought about it, the more awesome he felt, if this thunderbolt was really the energy needed for the PX project, he even thought that maybe he could get Uncle Xiong's clone replica from the world government through the thunderbolt trade!

Don't forget, Ian is about to become the Seven Martial Seas, and when the time comes, it can be said that he is on the side of the World Government, since the Seven Martial Seas can even get strategic materials such as Hailou Stone, then it is not impossible to trade one or two PX robots......

At that time, as soon as the dragon hunter pirates appeared, Ian was followed by two Uncle Xiong as bodyguards...... it! Dick ~ exploded!
