I, the scientist, start by cloning Kaido

While dispatching Admiral from Naval Headquarters, heading to Gaya Island.

Edie has headed towards East Blue.

"Is it really Kaido... Something is wrong."

Crocodile was pinched by the dragon's claws, still in shock.

After calming down and thinking about it, I always feel that something is wrong.

He had seen Kaido with his own eyes!

First of all, the heights of the two do not match. One is more than three meters and the other is more than seven meters.

Secondly, the man in the grimace mask has no horns on his head, while Kaido has a pair of exaggerated long horns.

Finally, the mysterious scientist called him [Chen Long].

These feelings of inconsistency led him to draw a conclusion.

Not the same person!

But why does this person possess the power of the Blue Dragon Fruit?

"What's going on?" Crocodile couldn't understand.

Edie can probably guess what's going on in this guy's mind, but he's not interested in explaining it.

The two sides reached East Blue that evening in silence.

Logue town.

In recent years, it has also been called "the town of the beginning and the end", all because of Roger the Pirate King.

Gol·D·Roger, who walked out from here, gathered a group of reliable partners and completed an unprecedented feat:

Arriving at the final island that no one has ever reached, and naming it "Ravdel".

While being respected as the Pirate King by the world, Roger disbanded the pirate group, surrendered to Marine, and was eventually sent back to his hometown of Logue Town, ending his magnificent life.

Here is the beginning and the end.

As a prosperous port town, it is still bustling even at night.

When a blue dragon flew over Logue town, pedestrians on the street looked up.

"what is that?"

"Dragon! It's a dragon!"

"Does such a creature really exist in this world!?"

Countless people screamed and panic spread.

Edie ignored the people below and followed Crocodile's instructions to Roger's tomb.

Qinglong comes and goes quickly.

Only the moon was blocked for a moment. When the moonlight shone on the earth again, the green dragon had disappeared into the night.

"F-fly away?" Someone said blankly: "Go and notify Marine... It was definitely not an illusion just now!"

the other side.

A suburb about twenty kilometers away from Logue town.

Edie and the three of them stood in front of a tombstone with no name on it.

"Are you sure this is Roger's tomb? It doesn't even have a name. It's inconspicuous."

"What happens if he has a name? He is the Pirate King."

Regarding Crocodile's statement, Edie thought about it for a while and found it quite reasonable.

When Garp buried Roger, he certainly didn't want anyone to disturb his sleep.

If the tombstone was written "Gol·D·Roger's grave", many people would definitely stare at it.

"Roger lived near here before he went to sea." Crocodile explained again.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's dig."

Edie raised his chin and signaled the other party to take action.

What a bastard. I'm seriously injured and can't let my subordinates work?

Crocodile cursed in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey Edie.

After digging for half an hour, a coffin was finally dug out.

After opening the coffin, an unpleasant smell immediately filled the air.

Edie covered her mouth, took a few steps closer, and looked into the coffin.

The corpse in the coffin had decayed, and a dirty white skeleton lay quietly in it.

"No matter how brilliant you were in life, it will be the same after death."

Edie shook his head.

He arrived late, and he didn't know if he could still extract the blood factor.

Extraction from blood is the simplest and most time-saving.

"Chen Long, go down and pick up a finger bone."

Chenlong jumped down, and Crocodile climbed up.

He couldn't help but ask: "You came here specifically just for a bone?"

Edie glanced at him and chuckled: "You want to know?"

"..."

Crocodile shut up immediately.

"I want to resurrect Roger." Edie said suddenly.

"What?" Crocodile was shocked, "How is this possible! Using a corrupted finger bone to resurrect a person who has been dead for four years?"

What kind of ability can do such a thing?

Crocodile quickly searched his memory for the abilities of Devil Fruit that he knew.

"Mortal wisdom."

Edie smiled slightly and said, "What do you think is the most powerful force in this world?"

Crocodile is silent.

"It's the power of science."

After saying this, Edie turned and left. Chenlong took Roger's finger bone and immediately followed.

Crocodile stood there frozen.

Others might sneer after hearing this, but he believed it.

After his tragic defeat to Whitebeard, he realized that there are limits to a person's power.

As a result, he learned of the existence of a powerful weapon.

Ancient Weapon, Pluton Pluto!

Rumor has it that it is a battleship that can wipe out an island with the power of one shot!

"Can just a finger bone really resurrect a dead person?" Crocodile was surprised.

While thinking, he prepared to follow.

Edie's words stopped him.

"Ancient Weapon exists, and Pluton is sleeping somewhere. This information is your reward for leading the way..."

"Remember to fill it back with soil."

"In the end, you are no longer useful and there is no need to follow."

Discarded like garbage.

Crocodile stood there, watching the two mysterious men disappear into the night.

It was late at night and his hands and feet felt cold.

Why does this man know what he was thinking just now?

An unknown fear enveloped his heart.

…

[Your scientific research reputation has improved...]

Edie indeed saw the system prompt.

He deliberately told Crocodile that he was going to resurrect Roger...

To be precise, clone a Roger.

The purpose is of course prestige.

[Scientific Research Reputation]: 1%→11%

"It has risen so much all at once. There is only one possibility: believe it! Does he really believe it?"

Edie looked weird.

He himself was not sure whether the blood factor could be extracted from the bones.

Crocodile is more confident than he is.

"What a good man. He first contributed a share of Logia's blood factor to me, then took me to find Roger's grave. Before leaving, he even gave me 10% of his reputation!"

Edie is very satisfied with the results of this trip.

"Let's go. After a busy day, let's stay here for one night."

The two came to Logue town and found a hotel to stay.

The next day.

Edie 2 was having breakfast in a restaurant.

Many diners around were discussing the green dragon that appeared last night.

"You saw it too, right?"

"You mean last night's... dragon?"

"That's right! A dragon flew from the sky, and many people saw it."

"Yeah, someone reported the situation to Marine Base. Guess what happened?"

"What's wrong?"

"When I was passing by the port just now, I saw a warship arriving! It's the Vice Admiral of our headquarters, the hero Garp!"

Hearing this, Edie's eyes flashed with surprise.

He just came last night and Garp showed up the next day? When did Marine become so efficient?

"After eating, let's go."

Edie finished his coffee, got up and walked outside the restaurant.

Chenlong left a golden bean on the table without saying a word.

Leave the restaurant and walk down the street.

They saw a group of Marines head-on. The leader was a carefree man, holding a large bag of senbei in his left hand and constantly digging out food from it with his right hand.

"Vice Admiral Garp, I have interviewed the witnesses last night in detail. There is indeed a dragon..." Adjutant Bogart quickly reported the work.

"What dragon? That's Kaido, right? He ran to Gaya at noon yesterday and showed up here again at night. What on earth did that bastard want to do?"

Garp was eating senbei, with a look of disgust on his face: "That fellow Sora is causing trouble to me. I'm on vacation."

"Vice Admiral..." Bogart said with cold sweat on his face, "Isn't it a bad idea to call that guy Marshal?"

"Hahahaha, just pretend you didn't hear me."

Garp laughed and suddenly spotted the two people walking by the roadside.

A tall man wearing a mask and a large gray cloak.

One person was wearing a white coat and looked like a very gentle young man.

These two people...

Garp narrowed his eyes slightly and made a gesture of eating senbei.

The two sides quickly crossed paths and seemed to care about each other.

"etc!"

They walked away from each other, and after a few seconds, Garp suddenly stopped.

He slowly turned around and grinned: "Not to mention the one next to you, young man, your outfit is unusual. Although the photo sent to me is a bit blurry, you are still wearing the same white coat."

The sound reached Edie's ears, and at the same time, many Marines behind him quickly approached him.

"Hey, you two, wait a moment..." Adjutant Bogart shouted.

Edie stopped, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a low smile:

"Unlike his bold appearance, his mind works very quickly, Mr. Garp."
