LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 63: 63 Marines Research Institute, Kingdom Development
"I need to get approval from higher-ups for this," Kizaru said.
Though he leads the escort force, he's just a guard and needs authorization to bring others in.
"Alright, I'll leave it to you, Admiral Kizaru,"
Lynch said. Kizaru waved his hand and vanished in a flash of golden light.
After a short while, he returned with a warrant in hand.
"Let's go."
…
Institute of Science.
After passing through multiple layers of security—fingerprint scans, password entries, and several large iron gates—Lynch finally reached the interior.
It can be seen that the world government pays great attention to this place.
If Lynch hadn't been a Marine Vice Admiral, he would have had to fight hard to get in.
In fact, he might not even be able to get in.
Several Admiral-level combatants could arrive within minutes.
"Why does the World Government want to arrest rare races from all over the world? What are they planning?"
As Lynch walked, he saw all kinds of strange and new things.
What caught his attention the most were the rare races being held captive and having their blood drawn: Giants, Minks, Dwarves, and Fishmen….
Seeing the rare races held captive and their blood drawn, Lynch felt a chill.
It seemed true that one of the three calamities from the Beasts Pirates had escaped from a Marine lab when he was young.
"I don't know; this involves the World Government's top secrets," Kizaru said lazily. "We've arrived."
In a room, two scientists took the Demon Cutter and Poison Dragon Fruit from Lynch.
One of the scientists placed the Demon Cutter into a black coffin.
The other scientist put the Devil Fruit into a juicer, then placed both the juicer and the Devil Fruit into the coffin.
The coffin was covered and Lynch noticed it was made of seastone.
"Giving Devil Fruit powers to items is actually quite simple"
Kizaru explained, "You just need to put them in a sealed seastone box together and then destroy the fruit."
Don't look at Kizaru's easy words.
As we all know, seastone is much harder than steel.
Only the world's top swordsmen can cut seastone,hich shows how difficult it is to process it.
Handling such a large piece, while ensuring precision, makes it even more challenging.
If there's a gap in the stone boxes, the Devil Fruit's energy will escape, causing failure.
"Buzz buzz~"
The scientists remotely started the juicer, crushing the Poison Dragon Fruit inside, and then the juicer dissolved itself.
Without a carrier, the energy from the Devil Fruit floats in the air, trying to find a new carrier.
It tried several times but couldn't get out, the seastone was made into a coffin.
The fruit's energy then had no choice but to attach itself to the Demon Cutter.
"Roar!"
When they heard the sound from the coffin, everyone knew it was done.
As soon as the coffin was opened, a small dark green dragon flew out and circled around Lynch.
"So good, so good."
Lynch touched the dragon's head.
The next moment, the dragon coiled around Lynch's waist like a belt.
"Lynch Vice Admiral, did you really feed a Mythical Beast Fruit to a weapon?"
Seeing this, Kizaru's mouth twitched in disbelief.
He had never seen such extravagance before.
What a luxury!
"Hahaha, Kizaru Admiral, I'll give you a raise when I become Fleet Admiral."
Lynch couldn't wait to try out the new demon cutter, nd disappeared before Kizaru could ask any more questions.
…
Training Course.
"Here comes the sword!"
Lynch stretched out his arm, and the small dark green dragon flew into his hand with telepathy and transformed into a long sword.
He returned to his true form, and his figure quickly grew larger.
At the same time, the Demon Cutter grew proportionally, eventually becoming a five-meter-long sword.
"You mentioned you have other abilities?"
Lynch asked, gripping the sword handle.
He rotated the blade, causing dark green venom to flow down its edge.
The venom dripped onto the ground, corroding a three-meter-tall boulder weighing dozens of tons in seconds.
"Hiss~"
Lynch gasped, impressed by the venom's potency.
This was excellent—he'd never have to worry about a lack of effective weapons again.
…
After all this, Lynch returned to Sky Island and began a new phase of research and development.
…
A month flew by in no time.
One day, while Demon Cutter was playing with Tom in the open space, it was suddenly startled by laughter coming from a nearby cave.
"Hahahaha! I've finally developed a move similar to Kaido's Flame Cloud!"
Realizing that the master had left the cave, Demon cutter and Tom ran over quickly.
Lynch looked excited.
Since he couldn't create clouds like Kaido, he had found another way to achieve a similar effect.
Hard work pays off. He had figured out how to use electromagnetic forces to create a biological stance with electromagnetic nets, allowing objects to float.
The transportation problem for the Pluton battleships was solved.
Lynch, along with Tom and Demon Cutter, went to the shipyard, loaded ten simplified Pluton warships, and flew them towards West Blue.
"Lord God! Long live!"
The residents of Sky Island at the shipyard watched in awe, seeing Lynch as a true god.
This was the power of a god!
…
With ten battleships, using transfer scrolls wasn't an option.
Lynch had to float in the sky for over a month to reach his kingdom.
With a loud bang, he dropped ten simplified Pluton battleships into the country's inner harbor.
The inner harbor is much safer and more secretive than the outer port, especially at night.
"Greetings, my lord."
Yakushi Kabuto, who had a feeling that Lynch would arrive soon, was already waiting.
He quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully upon seeing Lynch.
"It's you, Kabuto. You've grown much stronger over the past year."
Lynch gave a few words of encouragement, making Yakushi Kabuto's face flush with excitement. "Yes, Mr. Lynch, it's all thanks to you!"
"Well, where are Shikamaru and Robin now?"
After spending a year together, Robin eventually revealed her true identity to Lynch.
Lynch also looked like he was surprised at first, and then completely accepted Robin.
Recalling Robin's enthusiasm that day, Lynch touched his cheek, lost in thought.
"Master Robin should be handling tasks in the palace, while Mr. Shikamaru has been managing black market matters recently."
"I understand," Lynch nodded. "These are ten Pluton battleships. You're responsible for recruiting elite soldiers and getting familiar with them as soon as possible."
"Yes, Master Lynch!"
After more than a year of development, the kingdom has changed significantly.
Lynch took out the report Robin had given him.
