Chapter 355: Predicting Disaster, Arriving at Aighead
Marco looked suspicious and asked, "Could it be that it has fallen into disrepair?"
It's no wonder he was so suspicious. This crystal ball didn't seem very solid no matter how you looked at it.
Jinbei's face was filled with black lines after hearing this, "How is that possible!"
"Hahaha, I was just kidding, Jinbei!"
Marco laughed awkwardly and asked seriously, "So Jinbei, what does this mean?"
Jinbei did not answer, but instead talked about Shirley's prediction: "Marchau, Shirley predicted the coming of the Great Pirate Era, and also predicted the birth of Princess Shirahoshi, in addition to various other major events, all of which have come true one by one.
At that time, Xia Li was still young and did not understand what the events she predicted meant, but later she found that each event she predicted meant a disaster, so she was ready to stop fortune-telling.
Marco narrowed his eyes. He had heard of the other party's reputation and his divination accuracy rate reached 100%, but he didn't know that the content of the divination had such negative attributes.
Jinbei continued, "In fact, Xia Li also struggled for a long time before carrying out this prophecy."
"Because she sensed fear, fear of the future!"
Jinbei said solemnly, "This fear drove her to prophesy. She was afraid of a tragedy that was already determined, and she was also terrified of the unknown future. Until today, she decided not to wait any longer."
Being a prophet is both a gift and a curse.
In particular, this prophet has no power to change destiny.
"However, at the moment she was fortune-telling, accompanied by a dazzling purple light, the crystal ball was instantly blown into powder."
Yes, powder!
There wasn't even a fragment of the crystal ball left.
Marco felt a headache. Was this the kind of thing he should listen to?
That girl named Shirley could even predict the Great Pirate Era, so you can imagine how high the limit of her predictions is. But now the crystal ball of prophecy has exploded?
And it was fried into powder?
Marco wanted to tell Jinbe that they were actually just pirates, very cruel pirates who would not get up early unless there was profit. At most, they were a little kinder than ordinary pirates, and they would pay for meals, but they were not the navy.
But he also understood that this was just Jinbei telling him to be careful.
Marco rubbed his head, feeling annoyed for a moment, and said, "Oh my, there have been so many events in the past year. First there was the nameless light column, and then there was the prophecy of a major event!"
"Could this prophecy have anything to do with the pillar of light? Could the prophecy be related to the people of the World Government?"
Marco seemed to have discovered the highlight.
Jinbei also knew about the light column. After all, it was right above his head. He could see it when he surfaced to buy newspapers. But he still shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, but this light column doesn't seem to be a threat, otherwise the World Government would have taken action long ago. And judging from the unrest in Marijoa, it doesn't seem to be caused by the World Government."
Marco sat on the guardrail, crossed his legs and smiled, "It's hard to say. If it's a highly confidential weapon or some research, it's not impossible that his subordinates are not aware of the situation and are on guard."
Although Jinbei is a blue fat man, he has the demeanor of a general and is very careful. He shook his head and said, "It is said that Kizaru was put on alert for two days that day. If it was done by the World Government, the alert would probably be lifted after just a slight movement."
Marco also nodded slightly to show his agreement.
Jinbei said, "Marco, tell Dad about the situation. I also need to talk to Lord Noah."
"Noah~"
Marco's eyes flickered slightly. The other party had a small feud with the Whitebeard Pirates, but Marco did not make things difficult for Jinpei. He nodded and said, "Okay! Remember to come over when you have time! Otherwise, Dad will ask us brothers to kidnap you!"
Jinbei smiled and nodded in agreement.
……
Mariejoia.
In a pavilion, the Five Elders were answering a call from someone.
Saint Satan said in a deep voice: "Your power is just a spark of fire. Although it has great energy, it is not infinite. This weight is not enough!"
On the other side, a voice of unknown gender said: "I will help you seize the fusion furnace, but I have to make it clear in advance that you must not break the agreement between us. You should understand that Vegapunk will not compromise. He would rather destroy the furnace than leave it to you. You need my help."
Mazi Sheng said calmly: "As long as the mother fire is obtained, it is just a mere identity of a celestial dragon. What does it matter if I give it to you?"
Peter Saint also smiled and said, "Besides, you are a rare talent."
The other side said greedily: "There is one more condition - you have to help me kill the rest of the Vegapunks!"
Peter Saint sneered: "You are really greedy, is this jealousy?"
Saint Vochuli asked: "You should be able to control and build a fusion reactor, right?"
The other side said proudly: "Of course I can control it!"
"but……"
The other side paused for a moment, "This fusion furnace is unique, I can't make it!"
Nasu Shoulang Sheng said dissatisfiedly: "Then how was it made!"
The other Five Elders also frowned. They felt that the other party was using the non-replicability of the fusion furnace to raise their own value and at the same time add a talisman to themselves.
The man explained: "I have the memory of the blueprint, but it uses some ancient technology and components handed down from ancient times. I can only move it over and use it, but I can't reproduce it. Speaking of which, the technology of that huge kingdom is really great~"
The tone of voice seemed genuine, which made the Five Elders feel depressed, especially when they heard the words "huge kingdom", their brows furrowed even deeper.
Saint Vochuli asked: "How much of this historical text has Vegapunk interpreted?"
The man chuckled and said, "He, well, only has a vague idea about it. After all, he doesn't have much time to study it. On the one hand, you guys are in charge, and on the other hand, he has to deal with energy technology, so he doesn't have time to decipher it."
"In recent years, energy technology has achieved breakthroughs, so he has turned his research direction to historical texts."
The person was in a dark corner. A ray of light revealed her evil smile. "It's the blank hundred years~, it's really curious!"
Saint Satan suppressed his dissatisfaction and said in a deep voice: "If you don't want to be eliminated, don't explore the taboos!"
The man chuckled and said, "Hahaha, of course, of course. I'm not interested in history. This can't compare to the temptation of the Celestial Dragons."
"I hope you can send someone here sooner. After all, Vegapunk is not a fool and has many backup plans!"
Saint Satan narrowed his eyes and said, "I know. CP0 has already gone there. Several batches of CP went there before, but they all disappeared. Anyway, I will meet up with the navy and go there together!"
"That's good, I hope you'll keep your promise!"
Click!
As soon as he finished speaking, the Den Den Mushi lost contact.
Peter Saint chuckled and said, "I didn't expect that kind of person would want to become a celestial dragon!"
Nasu Shoulang Sheng disagreed and said: "It's just a laboratory product, it's normal to have defects!"
Mazi Saint said calmly: "Satan, do you really want to go there in person?"
Satan Saint said: "Of course, Vegapunk has deceived me for a year! A dog that deceives its master must be dealt with!"
Saint Satan clenched the cane in his hand slightly, and although his tone was vicious, there was also regret for Vegapunk.
He really values talent, so he fought for another half a year for Vegapunk. If this person hadn't come to tip him off, he would probably have reluctantly fought for another half a year for Vegapunk.
Of course, cherishing talent is one aspect, but the main thing is that Vegapunk is well aware of scientists' methods of defrauding money, and he cannot always let the financiers hear vague statements such as "it's almost there", "the pass is difficult to cross", "still needs research", etc.
From time to time, the research progress should be improved a little, some scraps should be thrown out to stabilize the heart of the sponsor, and a layer of fat should be scraped from the sponsor by the way. This is the way for scientists to survive.
The reason why Vegapunk could survive and last for half a year was that he threw out some by-products such as high-energy batteries. These were better than the energy of the Vinsmoke family and the cost was half the price. The technology inside them even made Saint Satan confused.
"Of course, most importantly, I want to destroy everything about this historical text."
Saint Satan's tone changed, and he seemed to be speaking selflessly, but no one knew why.
"Okay, on to the next topic!"
Peter Saint smiled and said, "The navy has been restless lately~"
"Hmm? Is there anything big going on recently?"
"A fool who called himself Whitebeard II cut off Zephyr's arm. Even the navy of the elite recruit camp was killed, leaving only two people. These are the future backbone of the navy!"
"Hmph, good news. Ever since Sengoku became the Navy Admiral, he has been asking for military funds. The Navy is getting stronger and stronger. It's a good opportunity to reduce their power."
"I second the motion! Although the navy is the dog of us Celestial Dragons, it is still the face of the World Government. Send some CP to assist the navy!"
"Seconded!"
……
The Navy Headquarters was in an uproar, with many admirals clamoring to go out to sea, but they were stopped by their rational companions and Sengoku's military orders.
The reason for their commotion was just because of one man.
"Let me go! Charles! I want to lead the troops to kill that bastard!"
A man with a cross scar on his face roared at the man who was holding him.
The navy cloaks they wore revealed the fact that they were high-ranking naval officers.
The man with the cross scar roared, "Charles! Teacher Zefa is still in the hospital and his arm was chopped off. How can you resist revenge? If it weren't for Teacher Zefa's help, would you be where you are today?!"
The man with the cross scar pointed his index finger at the other man's shoulder fiercely, "Are you going to turn your back on me just because I put on this cape? Ha!"
Charles looked grim, but he still said calmly: "Kul, calm down! Teacher Zephyr's revenge must be avenged. Vice Admiral Garp and Admiral Aokiji have already gone to find him!"
The man with the cross scar, Kuhl, shook off the other's hand and said angrily, "So what! I am who I am! One more person means more strength!"
Charles punched the opponent in the face. The opponent's head tilted and veins popped out on his neck. These veins kept wriggling, as if he was enduring something, and his momentum came to an abrupt end.
"Calm down?"
Charles asked grimly.
Kuer spat out a mouthful of blood foam and said, "Not bad!"
Charles said with a mocking look on his face, "One more person means one more strength? Kuer, you are from the elite camp after all, how can you be so naive? Even though we have become major generals and have two-color domineering power, what resistance can we have against those monsters?"
"To put it bluntly, even if we went there, we would just help clean up the battlefield!"
Kuhl was stunned at first, then smiled bitterly after a long while and said, "You have a point, Charles."
Kul clenched his fists, thinking of how Zephyr, who had always been invincible in his eyes, had his arm chopped off by the opponent, and the opponent was even said to be a fool. If he went to fight on the battlefield, he would probably just cause trouble for Vice Admiral Garp and Admiral Aokiji.
