OPI Chapter 270: Negotiations and Chaos
🕑 Added 2024-12-13 20:09:48 +0000 UTCWorld of the Titans, Noah's Ark.
As the negotiations with the Teigu World continued, Imu stopped paying attention to them as the people in charge would take care of the specific details.
At this moment Imu looked at Historia, who was sleeping naked and exhausted beside him. After getting dressed, he disappeared from the bedroom in an instant.
Ever since Imu's strength increased to the current level, the time he needed to sleep was greatly reduced, so usually after being intimate with Historia or Esdeath, while they fell asleep, he would return to continue with pending work or other activities.
"Is there any report I should pay special attention to before getting to work?" Imu looked at Stussy standing in the study indifferently.
Stussy bowed her head slightly to show respect, hiding her complicated look.
"My lord, the Governing Council has reported that Doctor Vegapunk has successfully created the artificial Human-Human Fruit. They also confirmed that as long as they have the corresponding bloodline factor, they will be able to create other Common Zoan type fruits."
"Cost and time?" Imu asked in a neutral voice.
"Each fruit costs about 800 million berries and requires twenty days to cultivate, due to the immaturity of the current process." Stussy responded accurately.
Although Imu didn't show it, he was quite surprised, as he didn't expect Vegapunk to have developed the technology to make devil fruits so soon.
“If it’s possible to create ordinary Zoan-type fruits, then could ancient or mythical-type fruits also be created?” Imu asked calmly.
Stussy replied blandly: “According to the Research Department’s report, Doctor Vegapunk mentioned that there isn’t much difference between Ancient-type fruits and ordinary ones. However, Mythical Fruits are another story, as there are no real examples of the creatures they’re based on to study. Still, he plans to conduct experiments with the bloodline factor he extracted from General Kaido, to try and replicate the Azure Dragon Fruit.”
Imu nodded, it seemed that Kaido's Fruit could not escape the fate of being copied.
Stussy continued: “Lord Imu, the Research Department has requested instructions on whether they should send you the artificial Human-Human Fruit.”
Imu thought for a moment, then replied in an indifferent tone: "Well, send it over."
“Understood.” Stussy replied, bowing and leaving the office.
Imu on the other hand sat at her desk to continue reviewing the reports.
When dawn broke, the artificial human-human fruit arrived at Noah's Ark.
At that moment, Imu arrived in front of the Golden Bell Tower.
The great blue snake of Sky Island lay on the ground in front of him respectfully.
With a solemn voice, Imu declared: “Nola, today I grant you the wisdom, body, and potential of a human. May you become a stronger protector in the future, able to watch over Noah’s Ark as it sails through the stars.”
As soon as he finished speaking he threw the fruit directly into the snake's open jaws.
In a short time the gigantic body of the snake began to shrink rapidly before everyone's watchful eyes.
He transformed into a middle-aged man, approximately three meters tall, with a muscular build, blue-green skin covered in dark blue patterns, and white hair.
His eyes maintained the same yellow irises and vertical pupils that reflected an imposing coldness.
The next moment he knelt on one knee and with a deep, excited voice, exclaimed: “Nola greets his master, Lord Imu!”
....
Nola will then receive intensive training from a Cipher Pol member to improve her strength, just like Doflamingo.
Meanwhile, the World Government continued negotiations with the Teigu World.
Suddenly, a roar filled with fury resounded throughout the place, transforming into sound waves that shook even the new base of the World Government.
It was the Shikoutazer. Because the World Government had brought several of the top-level fighters to lobby with their presence during the negotiations, the emperor had overseen everything from within the humanoid robot.
As the negotiations progressed, the Emperor became increasingly irritable, until he completely lost his mind. In his frenzy he even tried to crush Isaac and Tsukahara.
"Not good!"
"Retreat quickly!"
They both reacted with terror and escaped at full speed.
[Boom!]
The huge foot descended, kicking up the snow due to the shock waves.
"Bwahaha!"
Suddenly, a vibrant laugh rang through the air.
When the snow finally fell completely, everyone watching couldn't help but gape in amazement.
A person stood there holding the giant foot that had descended upon him in one hand.
That person was Garp who now had a wide, carefree smile.
"Roar!!"
However, Garp's action only served to further enrage the Emperor, who had already completely lost his mind. In an instant, he activated Purge Mode.
As everyone quickly evacuated, Garp began a fierce confrontation with the Shikoutazer.
"Bwahaha, great! This is what I want!" Garp, far from being worried, seemed ecstatic as the fight continued.
"Gurararara~" Whitebeard laughed out loud. "Garp, that bastard, is really messing around!"
"Although, it seems that monster has gotten out of control. What are we going to do now?"
...
Fortunately, since the beginning of the confrontation, Garp had moved the Shikoutazer as far away from the World Government base as possible, since as the fight continued the Shikoutazer began to throw red energy bullets in all directions, although some were intercepted or deflected by the World Government generals present, many others headed towards populated areas of the empire, threatening to affect those unfortunate enough to be in their path.
On the other hand, the old Dragon poked its head out from beneath the clouds and looked at the Shikoutazer in its frenzy and said grimly: “It seems that the current emperor cannot resist the will of the Imperial Guardian.”
Kaido, at some point had transformed into his blue dragon form, to resist the Shikoutazer's stray attacks, and when he heard the old dragon's comment he asked: "What should we do now?"
“Make the emperor inside the Imperial Guardian lose consciousness.” The old Dragon replied.
"Worororo~~" Kaido laughed. “That’s easy! I’ll take care of it!” And without further ado, he dove in.
"This is..." The old dragon looked at his actions in confusion.
Meanwhile, at some point Whitebeard had joined the fight between Garp and the Shikoutazer, and when the latter sensed Kaido's presence, he launched a blinding red beam at him. Kaido quickly dodged the attack.
“Stop your nonsense, damn emperor!”
[Boom!!]
The next moment, Kaido roared and unleashed his Haoshoku Haki without restraint.
"Roar!"
The Shikoutazer, fully transformed into its Purge Mode, let out a heart-rending roar as it made contact with the dark red flashes of Haoshoku Haki.
Inside the mecha, the Emperor controlling it was also suffering the ravages of the attack. Holding his head tightly, he desperately fought against the agony. Although he seemed to be on the verge of unconsciousness, he was still holding on by a very narrow margin.
However, this pressure only succeeded in making the Shikoutazer more savage.
From his mouth and from the numerous eyes spread throughout his body, he began to fire bursts of energy and rays with a much more intense frequency.
"Gurararara~~"
“It seems that little Kaido’s Haoshoku Haki isn’t working!”
Edward Newgate, seeing this scene, did not show the slightest bit of concern. Instead, he burst into a carefree laugh. Then, he took a firm step forward, causing the thick layer of ice beneath his feet to crack with a resounding crunch.
"You can no longer continue your rampage, emperor of another world!" He shouted loudly, unreservedly releasing the entirety of his Haoshoku Haki.
In an instant, an overwhelming force emanated from his body, accompanied by black and red lightning, as it swept across the vast region in front of him like a relentless tempest. Everything in its path shattered into pieces.
The magnitude of this Haoshoku Haki far surpassed that previously demonstrated by Kaido.
However, the Shikoutazer, sensing the familiar force advancing towards him again, roared in anger.
"Roar!!!"
The Shikoutazer suffered an even more ferocious mental attack, plunging him into extreme pain.
However, just like before, although the roars and bursts of rage were deafening, there seemed to be no sign of it stopping.
The Shikoutazer opened its mouth, condensing a sphere of glowing red energy within it and its target was Edward Newgate.
But the next second, a black beam shot from below and hit the Shikoutazer's jaw hard. This caused the newly formed energy to explode inside its mouth.
"Shut your mouth! I won't let you continue wreaking havoc!"
Garp stood in the air using Geppo, looking down at the Shikoutazer who staggered back after being hit by him.
