Pirates: Dark Smoker, never lose three times in a row

The old man was very happy.

Hearing Smoker say that he had something to ask for, Caesar Courant put down his coffee cup with a smile.

"It's really strange, Smoker-kun, you actually came to me..."

"I'm just a scientist. Apart from scientific research, I can't do anything else..."

Smoker: "Don't worry, I came to you because I like your scientific research ability!!"

"What I want to ask is... Forget it, you might as well take a look at this first!"

After saying that, he took out a thick booklet.

This is Vegapunk's research log of artificial devil fruit.

It records the research progress, progress in different periods, and some research ideas.

Caesar Courant saw that it was Vegapunk's research log and immediately became interested.

He took it and looked at it with a surprised expression.

"Artificial devil fruit? You actually got this?!"

He looked at Smoker suspiciously.

If I remember correctly, this is a top-secret project listed by the World Government. He has no right to participate. How could it fall into Smoker's hands?

But he didn't care about it, just continued to look through this rare log.

As for the World Government...

with me JJ thing!

Soon, Caesar Kulang was immersed in it.

"So it's based on this theory, yes, although it's wild, it's very reasonable!!"

"This data is amazing!"

"..."

Caesar was fascinated, and Smoker didn't urge him, just waited quietly.

After a long time, Caesar Kulang let out a long sigh and closed the log reluctantly.

"Smoker, is this the reward?"

"I admit that I am very tempted. Well, as long as it is not something too excessive, I can help you!"

Smoker smiled and shook his head.

"This is not a reward, but a content! I want to ask you to research artificial devil fruits!"

"What?!"

Caesar Kulang widened his eyes: "Are you kidding?! This top-secret project is closely watched by the World Government!"

However, it is so tempting...

Smoker signaled him to calm down.

"Vegapunk will soon report to the World Government that the artificial devil fruit plan has been declared a complete failure."

"I just came from him. All the information and products have been destroyed. This log was brought out secretly..."

"Complete failure?! Destroy the information?!"

Caesar Kulang was stunned, and he opened the log again. After reading it for a while, his face was full of confusion.

"Isn't this already a result? According to the current data, it can be transformed into a product with a little improvement..."

Smoker secretly complained.

You didn't consider the side effects at all...

"Sure enough, your reaction is the same as mine..."

"But Dr. Vegapunk is different. He is a perfectionist. If the restoration is less than 100%, it is a failure in his eyes!"

Caesar: "..."

"Caesar, do you want to help me and continue to study along this path?"

"Of course, you can also go to CP and tell them that the experimental results are not so pessimistic. Or do something extreme and just report me..."

After Smoker finished speaking, he picked up the coffee cup, took a sip, and the darkness began to gather silently in his palm.

As long as Caesar has something to reveal to the World Government, he will die in the next second.

Even if Smoker himself does not study artificial devil fruits,

he will never allow the World Government to continue along this path!

As for how to get away with murder, Smoker also has a ready-made reason.

Caesar Courant "stole" Vegapunk's research log...

After all, he had both the motive and the ability to commit the crime, so no one would suspect anything.

And Smoker's killing him was justified.

As for Vegapunk, Smoker believed that he would not say anything nonsense...

Caesar did not realize that he was on the verge of life and death, and was still frowning as he read the final result of the log.

Smoker did not speak, but just looked at him quietly.

To be honest, Caesar Courant has not committed all kinds of crimes yet, and he gets along well with him.

If it is not necessary, he does not want to kill him.

After a long while, Caesar Courant closed the book.

"Shua la la la..."

"Is Vegapunk a genius or an idiot for giving up such a research result..."

Smoker stood up and walked to Caesar's side seemingly inadvertently, holding his hand.

Put it on his shoulder.

"So, Caesar, what is your choice?!

The tone is calm, and there is no abnormality.

"Shu la la la, stupid question, of course I will help you! ! "

"Huh? ! "Smoker was stunned, quite surprised.

"Let's not talk about your previous help in perfecting the poison gas, just talk about this matter. "

"I am a scientist, I will only help those who know the goods. "

"Since the World Government believes that the experiment has failed, it means that they are just a group of laymen. Why should I help those idiots!"

Smoker patted his shoulder heavily: "Thank you very much..."

"There are some materials and samples. I will send them when you find a suitable place."

"I am not as strict as Vegapunk. In my eyes, artificial devil fruits are enough as long as they can improve combat power and do not have too many side effects! ! "

Smoker also understood that Caesar would not care about any side effects.

But it doesn't matter. If the side effects are too great and cannot be improved, he can just sell it to pirates to make money...

I just don't know how long this research will take.

Two years before Luffy went to sea, Caesar caused a violent explosion in Punk Hazard and was arrested and imprisoned.

A year later, he returned to Punk Hazard and began to cooperate with Doflamingo to study SAD.

When Luffy and his friends beat up the Celestial Dragons, Mingo called Disco, the owner of the human auction house, and claimed that this was the "smile" of the times.

Considering that Kaido already had a large number of gifters under his command two years later, it means that he successfully developed an artificial devil fruit in one year...

Thinking of this, Smoker asked: "Caesar, how long will this research take?"

Caesar laughed a few times, his eyes rolling.

"Smoker, scientific research is very expensive! ”

“I estimate that it will cost at least 2 billion… Oh no, 3 billion Baileys!!”

In the main storyline, two of Punk Hazard’s three research bases were destroyed.

Many facilities were rebuilt, and experimental drugs and the like were also purchased anew, so the cost was extremely high, and Caesar had to cheat money from the aunt.

But now these things are ready-made, as long as Caesar does a good job of accounting, he can get it done without spending money...

Hearing this amount, Smoker was also stunned.

“How much? !”

Caesar panicked: “Uh… 1.8 billion is not negotiable...”

Smoker took out a black card and slapped it on Caesar.

“This is 5 billion Baileys, use it first, and tell me if it’s not enough!”

Caesar was stunned.

“Well… that, and Vegapunk only completed theoretical research.”

“To actually produce, human… human experiments are required.”

“What? !” "

Caesar panicked: "Uh... no, I can't use monkeys..."

Smoker took out a card and slapped it on Caesar.

"This is the VIP card of the slave auction house. You can go to the Sabaody Archipelago to recruit people. Use it first, and tell me if it's not enough!"

"But you are not allowed to use civilian slaves..."

Caesar trembled with excitement.

"Smoker... No, Brother Smoker! You are good at technology! I will follow you from now on!!!"
