718 to find out

"In this way, the next group of annoying guys won't bother me!"

Although he had completed the study ordered by the world government, and he was a little relieved in his heart, Vegapunk seemed to be a little melancholy.

Merely.

After sighing, he didn't say anything, turned his head to look at the rear admiral sent by the Navy Headquarters this time, and continued to say with a smile, "Don't say it yet...... This time the Navy Headquarters really sent a nice guy, unlike the rude guy who only carried an axe last time, boy, I think you should be a scientist more than the Navy! ”

"It would be such an honor to be so praised by the world's number one scientist, Mr. Vegapunk!"

Hearing Vegapunk's words, Dou also smiled and saluted.

Then he looked at Vegapunk in front of him, who was happy because of the completion of the experiment, but was not very happy, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Mr. Vegapunk, doesn't it seem to be very happy?" Shouldn't we be very happy that we have developed such a perfect weapon? ”

"It's a good experiment, but compared to these ......"

Vegapunk walked to a machine in front of him, and his clothes, which were a little dirty from research, disappeared in an instant, and he changed into a new set of clean clothes.

Then he pressed it from another machine next to him, and in the blink of an eye, a bunch of delicacies appeared in front of him.

And the temperature, which was originally a little cold due to the needs of the experiment, gradually increased.

Not just this space, but the temperature of the entire island has risen!

"I still like these more than those weapons, little one...... Technology is supposed to bring happiness to people! If I have enough money, I can even control the weather! Speaking of this, he shook his head regretfully, "It's a pity! None of these harmless technologies are recognized by the world government. ”

As soon as the words fell.

Hearing Vegapunk say this, and then looking at that confident expression.

Suddenly.

Dou's eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

[The world's No. 1 scientist seems to be a little dissatisfied with the world government~]

However.

Vegapunk didn't seem to notice the change in his face and continued to eat the food he had created with his machine.

And while eating, he seemed to be still saying casually, "And during this time, the world government doesn't know what the hell is going on, and it has been urging and urging, but the funds have not been called in time, and even the research funds have not been fully allocated this time, although I am called the world's first scientist, but I will not create materials out of thin air!" ”

"Really, now even the funds are deducted! Is the world government running out of time? If it weren't for the threat from the World Government, I would have liked to delay it a little longer, and let them allocate all the funds for this period of time first! ”

"Speaking of which, I have to blame the country of grass that has been in a lot of trouble recently! You said...... Obviously they are already the overlords of the East China Sea, and they are enemies with the World Government, how can those guys still have the cheekiness to capture the pirates and exchange them for bounties with the World Government? It's so shameless~"

But as he spoke, his tone changed again.

With emotion:

"Of course, you can't really blame the country of grass for this, I heard that now the East China Sea seems to have become very good under the management of the country of grass, and strictly speaking, the old man still has one thing to be grateful to the country of grass~, if it weren't for the country of grass to send the captain of the Hundred Beast Pirates and the captain of the Big Mom Pirates, it is estimated that an old friend of the old man would have to suffer!"

It seems that because of the deduction of funds, and the mandatory requirement to complete the experiment as soon as possible, Vegapunk has accumulated a lot of resentment recently, and after the experiment is completed, he complains to himself.

Merely.

Grumbling, complaining, Vegapunk seemed to notice that something was wrong with what he had just said.

You must know that the admiral standing in front of you is the admiral sent by the navy.

Although he is not going to suffer because of these words, the world government still needs him, and it is impossible to abandon him at this time, but he does not want to cause more trouble because of this.

Especially...... He's done a lot of things against the world government in secret!

Speaking of which, with this Major General Dou...... When you stay together, it really makes people feel very relaxed and comfortable~

A very gifted young man!

It's just that the other party is the navy after all!

So, after eating, Vegapunk snorted again, turned his head and was about to change the topic to Major General Dou on the side, and the lake was over.

Suddenly.

It's dark!

Vegapunk seemed to feel that something suddenly covered him in front of him, and he was suddenly startled.

But after seeing Major General Dou, who didn't know when he walked next to him, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Major General Dou, what are you doing here?" It's scary to suddenly get in front of someone! ”

However.

Just as he was complaining, a leisurely sentence suddenly reached his ears.

"Are you still angry that the world government is withholding funds?"

“???”

What is this guy talking about?

Vegapunk's face was stunned, and he didn't wait for a reaction.

"Still angry at the threat of the world government?"

"Are you still worried about your own lack of funds?"

"Are you still annoyed that you can't research what you like?"

Another three shots in a row.

One after another, a leisurely voice came.

That tone.

The voice.

It seems to be full of weird and beaning feelings.

Let Vegapunk can't help but pick it up in his heart, he always feels ...... Isn't there something weird about it?

After hesitating for a moment, he looked in front of him with a smile in his pocket.

Although the admiral still had the usual gentle smile, it always made him feel an indescribable feeling in his heart.

This guy ......

Isn't it because of what you just said, you're setting yourself up?!

Thinking of this, Vegapunk shrank his hole, and then said happily, "What do you mean by this?" Major General Dou~, I'm just complaining, but I'm not dissatisfied with the world government~"

"Nope! You have! ”

“?! I ......"

"Please don't open your mouth yet, Mr. Vegapunk~" pushed his glasses, with a smile on his face, still the smile that was infectious, like a spring breeze, looked at Vegapunk gently, with a leisurely voice, and said slowly, "Do you have a dream?" ”

“……”

So, what's going on right now?

Why did he suddenly feel a ...... Want to feel bad?

Before the stunned Vegapunk could say something.

"You have~" Major General Dou in front of him said affirmatively.

Then he turned around slowly, didn't look at Vegapunk again, his eyes softened slightly, and he said softly, "I just saw it in your eyes...... That's the light of dreams! Although you are not young Mr. Vegapunk, you have never forgotten your dream, otherwise, you would not have created six selves to continue your research! ”

"But I also feel your dissatisfaction in your eyes, your dissatisfaction with the world government, if I'm not mistaken...... Because of lack of funds, you understand that you can't do much research on your own, and you understand...... Your wisdom will eventually be coveted by others, and only a powerful force can provide you with refuge! ”

"So, you're complaining about the world government, you want to leave! You want to find a place where you can make your dreams come true! ”

As the words slowly fell, Vegapunk, who is known as the world's number one scientist, did not feel silent and did not say anything more.

Merely.

How did this guy know so much not long after he first arrived?

"I just guessed it." And as if he had guessed what Vegapunk was thinking, he pushed his glasses and said gently, "Mr. Vegapunk, I don't have the ability to see through people's hearts!" So, don't worry. ”

Of course~

It's not that simple.

After receiving the news that he was going to be sent here, he specially collected information here in the Navy Headquarters.

Especially on the side of the Yellow Ape General...... He seems to be very familiar with Vegapunk, plus he is a member of the Navy Headquarters, and there are Sengoku Inspector and Vice Admiral Tsuru standing behind him, so it doesn't make others suspicious, and even this identity allows him to get more information.

These are all things that he analyzed.

"Looks like I guessed right!"

"Maybe, I have to say, Rear Admiral Dou, you are really a smart guy, smarter than that Sentomaru, I still said just now, compared to the navy, you should be a scientist!" Vega Punk looked at Dou happily, "It's just...... What are you going to do with me? ”

Merely.

Having said that, although he still remained determined, he had secretly informed one of his clones, the righteous side.

Once something goes wrong, you can only run away early.

After all, he did do something that violated the requirements of the world government.

However.

"Don't worry, Mr. Vegapunk! I just want to ask you a question......" Dou pushed his glasses again, and after continuing to speak gently, under the gaze of Vegapunk, he slowly took out a document and put it in front of Vegapunk.

“???”

Just when Vegapunk was confused, Dou said with a smile, "The introduction of talents from the country of grass, understand?" ”

“……”

Some people died, but not completely......
