Chapter Seventy-Five: The Sun Capture Project
"Is this...?"
Vegapunk looked at the chainball on the table and asked.
"Yin Mu!"
"Is there a way to see the soul?"
Under normal circumstances, the soul is invisible, and Vegapunk naturally cannot see the condensed Yin Mu.
"Soul?"
Vegapunk was muttering to himself.
"The bear's ability to expel a person's soul from the body, even if I split the emotions in my soul into six different personalities, it still seems a bit difficult with the current technology alone."
The Meat Ball Fruit of the Great Bear is to split the soul and pop it out, and then place the souls of different personalities on the robot made by Vegapunk, a process that does not require seeing the soul.
It only takes a special machine to weigh the soul to determine its existence.
"By the way, there's this!"
Heaton took out the soul mark that controlled the space-based cannon, which was golden, and after leaving Yin Mu's soul, even ordinary people could see it.
"This is..."
"Control of the space-based cannon."
"Wait a minute!"
With a surprised look on his face, Vegapunk jumped out of his seat and ran to the side, returning with a cylindrical transparent object in his hand.
Then put the soul sigil into it.
Then he came to the console, and a mechanical arm reached out from above, and took the jar containing the soul mark.
Vegapunk was manipulated from the console.
"Your Majesty, what is in Yin Mu's soul?"
Vegapunk suddenly turned his head and asked.
"The demons in the Devil Fruit, the abilities of the Surgical Fruit, the Soul Mark, and some incomprehensible lines."
"Can't figure out the lines?"
Vegapunk muttered to himself, and then said, "Your Majesty, can you put Yin Mu's soul on this platform. ”
As Begapunk instructed, he picked up Yin Mu's soul and placed it on the platform that suddenly descended.
"Dr. Vegapunk, if I extract the ability of the Surgical Fruit from Yin Mu's soul, will something unpredictable happen?"
The reason why Heaton has not touched the ability of the surgical fruit in Yin Mu's soul is because he is afraid that because of his intervention, the ability of the surgical fruit will change during the extraction process, and he will lose his ability to live forever.
The eternal life he has pursued for so long will be within reach now, and Heaton has to be cautious.
"Hmm..."
Vegapunk stared at the light screen in front of him and groaned, watching the data on it swipe quickly.
"Your Majesty, Yin Mu is not a complete soul..."
"No, that's not accurate, or rather, she's completely different from the soul of a human or any other creature."
"Although she has not seen what a soul is with her own eyes, the quality of her soul is far greater than the weight of ordinary people."
Vegapunk has studied the difference in mass after death, and after many experiments, humans will lose between 10.6 grams and 42.5 grams of weight at the moment of death, and Vegapunk has also tested various organisms.
Animal souls without intelligence and thoughts have almost no weight, and animal souls that can understand human language and perform simple actions are lighter.
Vegapunk once weighed his soul, and after eating the brain fruit, the mass of his soul was as high as 150 grams, you know, this number has exceeded the limit of ordinary humans by several times.
The reason for this is that the brain fruit ability is to have an unlimited brain capacity, and its brain can store an infinite amount of information, but the more data it absorbs, the bigger his brain will be.
Thus, Vegapunk is almost certain that human knowledge and memory are superficially stored in the brain, but in fact in the soul.
Begabank's innate genius combined with an infinite database of brains made his brain the largest in the world.
The quality of his brain is actually far beyond the quality of his soul, but with the help of Big Bear, he can directly cut off his brain, extract all the knowledge in it and store it in the database, and what can be connected to the database are the six souls that he splits out.
In other words, the human brain is actually dispensable, and as long as there is a way to preserve the soul, it can still allow people to retain their consciousness after death.
But right now, Yin Mu's soul weight has completely exceeded Vegapunk's expectations.
One kilogram!
It's simply impossible!
It's not that Vegapunk doesn't accept reality.
Not to boast, Vegapunk's own knowledge is definitely far greater than what a person has lived for 800 years.
He had been to O'Hara and read all the books in the library, and the Brain Fruit could imprint in his mind what Vegapunk had seen and would never forget.
This is something that ordinary people can't do, after all, a person's brain capacity is limited, unlike Vegapunk, where the brain can grow indefinitely.
Could it be that Yin Mu can also be like himself, unforgettable?
This is impossible, such a amount of knowledge, not like himself to climb science and technology to change the world, but hide behind the scenes to rule the world for 800 years?
No matter how you think about it, Yin Mu's head is definitely not very shrewd when he makes this act.
Another reason.
Vegapunk discovers that Yin Mu's soul has a lot of impurities, which are probably the silk threads that Heaton's mouth said.
Drip~
Suddenly, there was a burst of alarm from the console.
Soul Seal Analysis Completed.
The operation authority engraved on the soul is not the power of the soul, but is achieved with the technology of 800 years ago.
With the technology that Vegapunk has mastered now, it can be parsed.
Vegapunk lay on the console, looking at the messages, carefully comparing them, suddenly jumped up, and cheered.
"I see, I see! I see! ”
Well?
Heaton looked at the excited Vegapunk, knowing that he must have made a discovery, and he tried to see some clues on the screen of the console.
Dense formulas, letters, Heaton's brows couldn't help but furrow.
Sure enough, he thought too much, no matter what, no matter how high his mental power was, he didn't have the talent to engage in scientific research.
Heaton didn't bother Vegapunk, who was completely in a state of flux, and turned his head to look at the bored Estes on the side.
She was curiously looking around the research room.
Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he walked briskly.
"Xiao Ke?"
Estes snorted softly, pulling out a mechanical coke from the corner.
It is still the original white cute appearance, but the difference is that some silver-white mechanical lines full of science and technology are clearly visible on the body.
The two eyes flashed, and the small short hand pounced on Estes who was crouching down.
"Seleuc!"
Estes was startled and shouted at Xiao Ke.
"Chirp!"
"Your Majesty, Seleucus has become a small Ke!"
Estes picked up Ke and ran to Heaton's side.
Heaton grabbed the soft flesh on the back of Xiao Ke's neck and lifted it, and his short limbs waved cutely in the air.
"Oh!"
Heaton's eyes lit up, the little guy was far cuter than he imagined, but what was even more peculiar was that the little guy in front of him actually had a soul!
That's right, it's the soul of Seleuc!
Once, with the alchemy technology of Dr. Fashion and Doteya, although Seleuc's soul could be extracted and retained, it could only be placed in a small "bottle" alone, and then used as a conscious subject to support the robot in carrying out the programmatic action.
It's a bit complicated to explain, and Heaton can't tell, but it's probably that Seleuc's soul has lost itself and can only be preserved by alchemy and placed in a machine.
But now, Seleuc's soul is completely fused with Xiao Ke.
As an emperor, he has no soul but has a simple consciousness, but now it is completely different.
"Xiao Ke~"
Suddenly, there was a shout outside, and immediately after, a blonde girl in a black jacket and a tight-lined jacket burst into the research room.
"Ahh Your Majesty! General Estes! ”
"It's Lilith."
The one who came was one of Vegapunk's clones, representing the "evil" Lilith.
Although he looks quite polite in front of Heaton, in fact, he still has a bad personality in private.
"Dr. Vegapunk is in..."
Vegapunk is still immersed in the world he is studying, and what is happening outside does not affect him at all.
"I'm asking Dr. Begapunk to look into something."
"Oh~"
Lilith is not very strong, because after Vegapunk finishes research, he will inevitably upload the process to the center, and at that time, all those who meet the authority in the research institute will know what Vegapunk has done.
"It's rare for Dr. Vegapunk to be so immersed."
Lilith looked at Vegapunk's back and sighed, but in the next second, she turned her head to look at Xiao Ke in Heaton's arms.
"Xiao Ke, why are you running around, I'll lock you up next time, see if you're still running around! Thanks to Your Majesty for arresting you, I can find you in a hurry. ”
Lilith grinned at Xiao Ke in Heaton's hand, and she was responded to by Xiao Ke's shaky little tongue.
"It's... Seleuc and Xiao Ke? ”
Heaton looked at the closeness of the two "people", and understood that Xiao Ke was probably the research project that Lilith was in charge of, and Xiao Ke was in a flexible state of human nature, which Seleu and Xiao Coco could not do so before.
"Xiao Ke No. 2, but it is still a semi-finished product, and it is in the testing stage."
"I see!"
Heaton nodded, handed Xiao Ke to Estes, as soon as he got into his hand, Estes pulled Xiao Ke's face and dragged it out, the soft and soft feel of the bullet, even Estes enjoyed it a little.
"It's a failed study by Vegapunk, but I was inspired by Edison's idea, and after all, it was a former subordinate of Estes, so I reinvented it."
Edison is likewise one of Vegapunk's doppelgangers, representing ideas.
Seleucus was a gift from Heaton to Estes, and since Vegapunk joined the Imperial Academy, Seleuc was sent to the Academy to assist in research because he wanted to study imperial tools and robots.
I didn't expect to see it again, and the two in one became like this.
"Because of the spiritual connection between the emperor and the emperor's envoy, Seleuc's soul and Xiao Ke are extremely compatible, so I asked Mr. Da Xiong to try to fuse Seleuc's soul with Xiao Ke, but I didn't expect it to be really successful."
"However, because of Xiao Ke's huge body and ugly form, and his combat power is not proportional to his size, he was recognized as an inferior product by Vegapunk, so I asked Minister Doteya to rush Xiao Ke to alchemy and use it only as a space pet."
Lilith explained simply.
"Come on, Xiao Ke, open your mouth!"
"Ah~"
Xiao Ke took control of his mouth, and Lilith reached in and pulled out a huge five-meter-long cannon barrel.
"Bang dang!"
Lilith threw the barrel to the ground, making a loud noise.
"Because of the fusion of Seleuc's soul, Xiao Ke can no longer become someone else's emperor."
"In other words, now it is a brand new individual, a half-emperor, half-creature and half-mechanical pet."
"Uh-huh!"
"Then why is it a semi-finished product, which is still being tested?"
"Because it seems to have a lifespan..."
Lilith was a little frustrated on her face, a technological product with a lifespan means failure.
It's brutal, but it's realistic.
Seleuc's soul is no longer young, which means that in a few decades, the little Ke in front of him may once again turn back into the emperor who has no wisdom to wait for his master.
Lilith has been looking for a solution to turn Xiao Ke into a permanent machine.
"It can be solved!"
At this moment, Vegapunk's voice rang out from the side, and he left the console and ran to Heaton's side.
"General Estes, can you give it to me?"
After taking Xiao Ke, Vegapunk said to Heaton again.
"Your Majesty, I have completely parsed Yin Mu's soul, and the ability of the surgical fruit can be separated through your ability, but it must be used on the next person as soon as possible, otherwise the ability will dissipate."
"As for Yin Mu's soul, I have already determined that she is an artificial soul created by the Huge Kingdom with the most advanced technology eight hundred years ago!"
"Artificial souls!"
"Souls can be artificially made!"
Both Heaton and Lilith were taken aback.
"But it's a failure!"
"I can't know what happened to Mi Xin and Yin Mu eight hundred years ago, but it is undeniable that according to the information on the soul seal, I can know that this is a failed soul product."
"I've already made a preliminary analysis of the soul seal, but it will probably take a while to fully grasp it. We can extract the permissions of space-based running separately and then reprogram it to return it to a normal cosmic orbit. However, due to the change of the space-based cannon, the astral displacement caused by it may not be able to return, that is, if the space-based cannon is moved at will, it may even cause the sun, moon, and five planets to fall! ”
As Vegapunk spoke, Heaton's expression became serious.
The sun is falling!
This is not a small matter, it is a major event that destroys the world.
The two worlds are about to completely merge, and if the sun and other planets of the Pirate World are allowed to hit the earth like this, neither world will be spared.
This is a more terrifying crisis than space-based cannon shooting!
"Your Majesty, without this incident, we must also solve the problem of the sun."
"The fusion of the two worlds will inevitably lead to the appearance of two suns and two moons in this world, the impact of the celestial phenomenon on the world is huge, and the appearance of two suns at the same time will inevitably lead to a sharp increase in the temperature of the world, even if there is no such incident, the sun of the pirate world is also a problem that we must solve."
Vegapunk's expression was solemn.
"According to the fluctuations and tears in space, it is preliminarily estimated that the merged planet will be about 1.5 times larger, and the difference and error of the center point of the space fusion will lead to the deviation of the positions of the sun and the moon, and the galaxies in the universe will not be completely merged like the world under their feet."
"How to solve it!"
Vegapunk's face changed and he spat out six words.
"Project Sun Capture!"
