I, the scientist, start by cloning Kaido

"It's so beautiful... It's like a fairy tale world."

When the green dragon broke through the white sea 10,000 meters high, Edie was shocked by the sight before her.

The exotic buildings are hidden among the white clouds, and the occasional green adds a touch of life to them.

On Angel Beach, there are Sky Islanders beating coconut trees with long sticks.

"It's amazing." Chenlong marveled.

As a clone, he has no memory of Kaido.

Kaido may have been to a certain Sky Island, but this was his first time.

"The house here is built on the clouds, won't it fall?" he couldn't help but ask.

Edie smiled slightly and said: "There are two magical clouds on Sky Island, one is called sea clouds and the other is called island clouds."

When a volcano erupts, it will bring out certain horny particles. This special condensation nucleus reacts with water vapor, changing the density of the cloud.

The less dense ones are sea clouds, just like the ocean.

The denser ones are islands, like soft soil.

Either type has strong buoyancy and can therefore support buildings, allowing Sky Islanders to build civilization in such places.

"Okay, just take a few glances and you'll be fine. We're not here for a trip."

Edie turned his eyes and instead of greeting the Sky Island people in a friendly way, he pointed in another direction and said, "Go over there."

There is an island of soil near Sky Island, which is called the Island of God by the people of Sky Island who have never seen soil.

It comes from Qinghai below and was once part of Gaya Island.

About four hundred years ago, it was pushed to the sky by powerful ocean currents.

Soon after.

The Island of Gods, in the interlayer of the sea of ​​clouds.

"This is the ancient city... Shantora."

Edie jumped down from Chen Long's head, his face filled with wonder.

Golden Township.

The ruins that caught the eye were filled with golden light everywhere.

All buildings are gold.

Chenlong changed back to his human form, took a few steps forward, and stood up a fallen golden pillar.

The golden pillar is more than ten meters high.

"Heavenly Father, do you want to take away all the gold here? I can move it away with my power."

Edie reached out and touched the golden pillar while his brain calculated quickly.

One cubic meter of pure gold is approximately 20 tons.

This golden pillar in front of me.

The height is approximately...

The diameter is approximately...

Simple math questions, answers...

About 20,000 tons? !

"wrong……"

Edie pressed the ring on his index finger with his right thumb, and then turned it gently.

Ability Ring·Blue Dragon, activate!

The next moment, cyan dragon scales appeared on his right hand, and his nails became sharp.

Edie struck out with his claw and penetrated the golden pillar.

Beneath the surface gold are stone pillars.

"Sure enough, it's not pure gold, it's just gold-plated on the surface."

Edie curled her lips helplessly, happy in vain.

He canceled the transformation and ordered: "Melt the gold outside. We only want the gold. The ruins themselves have historical value, so try not to destroy them."

"Yes, Heavenly Father."

After receiving the order, Chenlong opened his mouth and spit out a stream of flames, and began to heat the golden pillar.

Edie didn't disturb his work and just wandered around.

A few hours later.

A huge golden bump appeared in front of Edie.

Regardless of the purity issue, the golden lump weighs four to five hundred tons by visual inspection.

"enough."

Edie ordered Chenlong to stop smelting and open the system at the same time.

As a precious metal, the general equivalent, the value of gold in this world is about 500-600 million Baileys per ton.

The large piece of gold in front of him was worth more than 200 billion, which was enough to pay for the research funds he owed the system.

【Whether to pay...】

yes!

Most of the gold in front of him suddenly disappeared, and in the next moment, a huge amount of knowledge poured into Edie's brain.

The recipe for cloning chamber filling fluid...

Methods to extract, fuse, and transplant two bloodline factors...

How to make clones born with the ability of the Blue Dragon Fruit...

How to extend the life of clones...

How to compile the bloodline factors of the embryo and impose ideological stamp on it...

About how green blood is made...

About how blue blood is made…

The engineering problem of the Ring of Ability...

Edie seemed to be swimming in the ocean of knowledge, and scientific research problems opened his arms to him at this moment.

As if she had touched the door of truth, Edie not only did not feel pain in her brain, but felt a physical pleasure.

He closed his eyes tightly and silently digested this huge amount of knowledge.

Chen Long stood aside, guarding his appearance to prevent anyone from disturbing the Heavenly Father.

Heavenly Father is defenseless at this moment.

Half an hour passed like this...

Edie slowly opened his eyes, his expression extremely clear.

"Ah...I see."

He understood everything.

At this moment, he surpassed Vegapunk and can be said to be the scientist who knows the most about blood factors in the world.

Far ahead!

"Whether it is a clone or an ability ring, there are many flaws..."

"Clones need to be maintained every once in a while, and ability rings need to be replenished with blue blood..."

"It seems that a cloning laboratory must be established as soon as possible."

Edie pondered for a moment and looked at the remaining golden bumps.

Its size has shrunk a lot, and the remaining part is estimated to be worth fifty to sixty billion.

"Come on, take it with you."

Chenlong was stunned for a moment and said: "Heavenly Father, there are many more here, why don't you take them away?"

The gold smelted just now is just a drop in the bucket. There is gold everywhere in this ancient ruins, and it won't be able to be melted all in a while.

"What are you taking away now? We still need to build a treasury. It will be more convenient to get it later when we are short of money."

Just move the gold away before Enel comes here.

And Enel will not come until 12 years later.

It's early.

"I understand!" Chenlong immediately transformed into a green dragon, reached out with his claws, and grabbed the remaining gold nugget.

Then, he bowed his head and sent the dragon head to Edie's feet.

Edie stepped forward:

"Let's go to Gaya first. After flying for three days, let's have a good meal."

…

Gaya Island, Magic Valley Town.

Four years ago, in 1498, the words of One Piece Gol·D·Roger before his death ushered in the era of great pirates.

Countless men with dreams of getting rich set sail, and the number of pirates on the Grand Line increased.

Four years have passed, and now the town of Magic Valley on this island has become a place where pirates spend money like water.

At this time, the town's tavern.

The rude and noisy sound of the pirates drinking wine could be heard in my ears.

"Heavenly Father, do you want to kill them?" Chen Long whispered.

Edie sat at a table in the corner, looking at the newspaper in his hand, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"It's time to eat, you idiot."

"I'm very sorry. Then wait until you finish eating and then tell them to shut up."

"..."

Edie was speechless, pretending not to hear.

He looked at the Shijing newspaper in his hand. The news on it was very interesting.

In order to deal with the growing pirate power, World Government announced the establishment of a new department at this year's World Summit... Seven Warlords of the Sea!

All 50 kings present at the meeting agreed with the proposal.

Seven powerful pirates will be invited to become employees of the new department, and these recruited pirates will be given a right - legal plunder qualifications.

To put it simply, find seven pirates to clean up the pirates for the World Government.

Everything grabbed can legally belong to Shichibukai.

And the newspapers reported that the first Shichibukai had been born.

"Crocodile...so he was the first?"

Edie looked at the introduction about Crocodile in the newspaper.

The first Seven Warlords of the Sea, Sir Crocodile, Logia·Sand-Sand Fruit ability user.

The bounty when accepting the government's invitation to become a Shichibukai is...

81,000,000 Baileys!

"Logia, you can look for it just right..."

Edie is thinking about it.

Suddenly, the butterfly door of the tavern was opened, and a young man holding a cigar walked in with an arrogant attitude.

The man was carrying a cloth bag on his left hand. The bottom of the bag was red and dripping with blood.

A strong smell of blood filled the air, and many pirates in the tavern covered their mouths.

"What? Blood!"

"It stinks! The smell of rot, corpses??"

"Who are you……!"

There were exclamations in the tavern.

Edie looked up at the door and then at the photo in the newspaper.

The same person.

Crocodile ignored the looks of others and walked straight to the bar and put down the big cloth bag dripping with blood.

He said in a hoarse voice: "Bring out the best wine."

"You...you are the Shichibukai on the news! Crocodile!" The tavern owner turned pale with fright.

He glanced at the cloth bag beside him and swallowed.

"Could it be..."

"Hehehe... It's just the heads of dozens of pirates. I need money very much recently."

Crocodile laughed slowly and said, "Don't you understand? Wine."

"Yes Yes!"

The boss immediately turned around and went to get the wine.

At this time, several pirates on a table stood up together.

The bald man at the head grinned, showing a cruel expression.

"Shichibukai... he's just a dog raised by the government!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled out the machete from his waist and killed Crocodile with one blow.

"Hahaha, if I kill you, our 'Blade Pirates' will... just... just..."

The arrogant talking didn't last long, and the bald man who took action was trembling all over.

He looked at the scene in front of him with a horrified expression.

Crocodile was split in half by his knife and his upper body was split. There was no blood at the incision site, but a large amount of sand was flowing.

They attract each other and gradually come together.

"I heard that there are many pirates gathered in Magic Valley Town. I'm really lucky."

Crocodile raised his palm, and quicksand appeared on his palm: "On the contrary, you are unfortunate."

boom!

Behind him, a small sandstorm suddenly rolled up.

Including the bald man, the pirates in the tavern were rolled up one after another, screaming in agony.

The sand is like a sharp knife, constantly cutting their skin.

In the blink of an eye, the blood dyed the yellow sand red.

There was a clatter, the sound of a wine bottle falling to the ground.

The tavern owner was so frightened that he backed away and knocked down the wine cabinet behind him.

"Don't, don't kill me...!"

"...I asked you to get the best wine, but who asked you to throw it on the ground?"

Crocodile narrowed his eyes slightly, moved his eyes slightly, and glanced at the corner on the side of the bar.

At a table in the corner, a young man in a white coat was reading a newspaper quietly.

And a tall man wearing a grimace mask raised his arm, easily blocking the wind and sand.

It seemed like it was a restricted area.

"Suppress him, Chenlong."

Edie put down the newspaper and gave instructions casually.

Crocodile's pupils shrank suddenly.

In the field of vision, the man in the mask with a grimace disappeared.

Then, his vision changed, as if the world began to topple over.

No, it was his head...!

There was no time to react.

Chenlong held down Crocodile from behind and slammed his head against the bar.

boom!

The bar stopped in response.

"Damn...! Haki?!"

Crocodile's head was buried under the floor, unable to move.

He heard footsteps and the voice of the young man from before.

The voice is very friendly.

"Anyway, let's draw some blood first, wild Shichibukai."
