Akihara Kagura's words often make a lot of sense.
The Five Elders are the culprits behind many of the world's tragedies.
For this ocean, the Five Elders and Heavenly Celestial Dragons indeed deserve death.
Kizaru stood smiling beside Akihara Kagura, quietly watching as Akihara Kagura hung up the radio snail, then pursed his lips and said, "It seems we've found a reason to act..."
"More or less."
Akihara Kagura put away his radio snail, his gaze still on the island: "Next, we just need to wait for Marshal Sengoku's news and let Konoha prepare for the auction..."
Marineford.
According to Akihara Kagura's plan, Sengoku immediately contacted Saint Saturn.
Saint Saturn valued Vegapunk highly, agreeing to Sengoku's proposed operation plan. He instructed the Navy to gather Admirals offshore, and he himself would contact agents hidden in the Shampodi Archipelago and also reach out to Red-haired Shanks to join the action.
To be honest…
This could be a heavily damaging operation.
That man, Red Hair, might not want to continue taking this kind of risk.
Shampodi Archipelago.
The auction house on Island No. 1.
Bartholomew Kuma and Sentomaru arrived here with a group of Peacekeepers, protecting Vegapunk. In this area, no one dared to cause trouble.
The Science and Technology Mechanical Forbidden Technique Trio of the Konoha Pirates showed great interest in Vegapunk's arrival, eagerly inviting him to the lab, eager to exchange experimental results.
Compared to Vegapunk…
The Konoha Pirates' laboratory could be considered truly luxurious. This luxury did not merely refer to experimental instruments and equipment, but more to the precious experimental materials.
"What is this?"
Vegapunk curiously looked at a white humanoid creature.
"This is White Zetsu."
Orochimaru stood beside him, explaining with a sinister smile: "By using a world-ending Genjutsu called Infinite Tsukuyomi, we pull human consciousness into an illusion and destroy it completely. Then, using a plant known as the Divine Tree, we transform the human body, turning them into White Zetsu, creatures devoid of soul and will of their own. It is also a way to bring about world destruction..."
"Ah!"
Vegapunk was startled.
This kind of experiment…
This kind of experiment is a bit too evil!
Though Vegapunk had, due to the Five Elders' forcible demands and Bartholomew Kuma's request, once performed memory-erasing surgery on Kuma…
But…
The Konoha Pirates' methods are a bit too outrageous!
Compared to the Konoha Pirates directly creating world-ending human experiment samples, those evil scientists Vegapunk had met seemed like total good guys...
"This..."
Vegapunk's gaze fell upon a tall mechanical body, quickly changing the subject: "Is this some kind of mechanical construct? Like the Peacekeepers I brought?"
"This is a Human Puppet."
Red Sand Sasori shook his head, pointing to Douglas Bullet on the experiment table, speaking softly: "First, kill a powerful person, then use Puppetry to transform the body into a puppet, retaining as much of the person's abilities as possible before death..."
Like this guy called Bullet…
Because he repeatedly provoked the Konoha Pirates, he finally angered Uchiha Madara and Senju Tobirama, who turned him into a corpse…
After Red Sand Sasori transformed Douglas Bullet into a Human Puppet, he could even retain Bullet's Three Haki and Merge-Merge Fruit abilities.
In a sense…
Red Sand Sasori now also possesses Supreme King Haki.
Moreover, Douglas Bullet's Merge-Merge Fruit ability is perfect for Red Sand Sasori's mechanical technology, allowing Sasori to arbitrarily modify his other puppets and, during battle, merge all puppets with Douglas Bullet's Human Puppet.
"There is also the most advanced Puppetry in the world."
Red Sand Sasori recalled the scene when Akihara Kagura modified him, continuing to introduce: "First, strip a person's soul, transform their body into a puppet, then place the soul inside the puppet, retaining the combat experience they had in life..."
"..."
Vegapunk was seeing stars.
No…
Can this pirate group engage in some normal science and technology!
Vegapunk walked through the area with faltering steps, his gaze darting around, suddenly landing on a coffin!
No!
Why is there a coffin here!
Rattle rattle…
The coffin lid slowly slid down…
Vegapunk stared in horror, seeing a person's body lying inside the coffin, covered with cracks, looking rather terrifying!
Moreover…
How does this person look so similar to that mechanical puppet!
"This is an improved Reanimation Jutsu."
Senju Tobirama pointed to the Douglas Bullet reanimated inside the coffin, softly introducing his research findings: "As long as we obtain a bit of their tissue, if their soul does not exist in the present world and hasn't been bound by others, we can use a living person as a sacrifice to pull their soul back from the afterlife to this world, recreating an immortal Reanimation Jutsu body, allowing them to retain most of their combat power and experience from life. These cells implanted within can control all their actions…"
"!!!"
Vegapunk's head spun with dizziness.
