One hundred and seventy-eight chapters empty island anecdote(1/2)
After listening to Bega Punk's words, Gawain smiled and nodded.
"It's really straightforward, but that's fine. Tell me what you want, Vegapunk."
After saying that, Gawain waited for Vegapunk's reply, but his phone suddenly went silent.
Seemingly thinking for a while, Vegapunk shook his head.
"I don't seem to need much. After all, whatever I need, the World Government will send it to me.
So... well, can you do me a favor?
In my hometown in the future kingdom, there are still two former laboratories, which I used when I was young to study devil fruits and mechanization.
I heard that you are traveling, right? When you are not busy, can you help me maintain my laboratory?
Because of the high technology content there, even just maintenance will cost a lot of money. I'm not sure how much it will cost, but it should be at least ten figures.
Anyway, I’ll leave it to you, how about it?”
It was only then that Gawain belatedly remembered that Vegapunk still had two fortunes buried in the future kingdom!
He actually forgot about those two laboratories all this time!
Even if Franky can't use the Devil Fruit laboratory for the time being, the mechanized laboratory is enough to bring him considerable improvement, right?
Therefore, after a glint flashed in Gawain's eyes, he decisively agreed to Vegapunk's request.
"That's it, Vegapunk!
Don’t worry, haha, I will definitely take good care of your experimental equipment, it must be a very good maintenance!"
"That's great. I'll help you deal with the slow fruit problem. I wish you a happy cooperation, Gao Wensheng."
Vegapunk hung up the phone mechanically, and Gawain quickly looked at the people around him.
"That's right, everyone, Vegapunk, the person who knows Devil Fruit best, can indeed transfer Devil Fruit from the body of an esper.
So, you can really choose the fruit you want!"
"But sir, with at least ten figures in Bega Punk's mouth, isn't this price a bit high?"
Gion asked softly.
"We are short of money now.
Although we still have income from big ships and casinos, compared with the plans we want to roll out, we are still under a lot of financial pressure, right?
Isn’t it a little bit... to suddenly spend billions of dollars to buy a Devil Fruit at such a price?"
"This is not expensive at all, Gion, after all, truly excellent Devil Fruits will almost never go to auction.
But we can really take advantage of the excellent fruits!"
Gawain chuckled and said.
"What's more, in addition to being able to freely choose Devil Fruits, we are not spending money on Vegapunk!
We do it for our own future!
Just imagine, what kind of maintenance can be safer than moving those laboratories to our ship?
It just so happens that we still have a large open space at the stern of the ship, so let’s plan it as an experimental area and move Vegapunk’s hometown there!
"First Evolution"
In this way, if there is a chance in the future, we can invite Vegapunk to visit his hometown, but his hometown has become our ship, haha!
Franky, what do you think?"
"I have no objection, but isn't this a bit bad...
Sir, we were asked to clean up the old house, but we moved it away.
Isn't this... this tidying up too clean?"
Even people like Franky felt a little embarrassed, so at this time everyone was looking at Gawain with disbelief.
Facing everyone's looks, Gawain waved his hand indifferently.
“For research equipment, only when they are used can they generate value, right?
Otherwise, no matter how much maintenance is done, the experimental equipment will just continue to wait for the end of decay and tatters...
"
Gawain made an unquestionable decision.
"That's it, Khalifa, add this project to the upcoming plans.
At the same time, send a small black bird to the future kingdom to investigate, and make a plan to relocate and repair the laboratory based on the on-site conditions.
If it was easier to relocate, Franky would take the time to take the black birds to move them back.
If the laboratory is too large, then our Blackbird will drive there in person!"
On the sidelines, seeing Gawain giving orders directly to Kalifa, no one stopped questioning it.
After all, while the atmosphere of Gaowen Group is good, it is also not lacking in systems.
No one will disrespect his captain's decision!
After Gawain made his decision, Uta casually poured a spoonful of soup into his hand.
“Oops, my hands are so clumsy, I got burned….
Gawain, feed me~~~!”
"Um."
Gawain rubbed the little girl's head in a funny way, and then continued to feed the little girl.
After lunch, Gawain continued to exercise. In the afternoon, he did not need to practice physical fitness anymore, but was very serious about honing his iron skills.
I saw him taking a horse stance, contracting his muscles, and letting Gion punch him one after another.
winter!
winter!
Muffled sounds kept coming, and Gawain kept falling down. His eyes were rolled over, he was vomited, and he was beaten until he convulsed.
With each punch, Gion will use Gawain's state and his own feel to urge Gawain to adjust the way the muscles in each part of the body exert force.
"Sir, you have got rid of the instinct to dodge now, which is half the battle. It's just that the way you accumulate power still needs to be adjusted.
Iron block is not just a technique to expand muscles, it is a technique to coordinate muscles within a certain range.
Try to find the range that allows you to best withstand blows, and then gradually reduce that range until your muscles can resist well... Huh?"
Having said this, Gion suddenly raised her head curiously, and she looked straight at the sky in the distance.
At the same time, other people on the boat also looked over in that direction.
Noticing Gion's expression, Gawain turned around.
Oops!
In the distance, there was a large ship about three hundred meters long, which fell straight from the sky.
At the same time, Lu Qi shouted loudly.
"Salvage team, hurry up, collect the scrap ship wood!"
With a swipe, a group of black platform members boarded the Little Black Bird directly and rushed in the direction of landing.
At the same time, on the side of the ship, Wu Ta, who was practicing his voice, was shocked by the falling ship.
"How could a ship fall from the sky?
Is that a ghost ship?!
"
After the words fell, Uta turned around and waved his hand to Gawain.
"Sir, let's go and have a look too, that's a ghost ship, sir!
,"
"Haha, how could it be a ghost ship?"
Not far away from Uta, Mr. Leili was lying on a lounge chair listening to music and smiled and waved his hand.
"The ship fell from the sky... Let me think about it, I should have an impression.
Kalifa, where is this place, and what are the islands nearby?"
After hearing Reilly's words, Kalifa thought for a moment and responded.
"Mr. Leili, nearby is the Navy G-8 Fortress. In addition, there are also the Navy G-2 Fortress, Hot Spring Island, Gaya Island and Shanyan Island nearby!"
"oh……."
Hearing this, Lei Li nodded clearly.
"Sure enough, Gaya Island is nearby, right? It's not surprising at all!"
While he was talking, the old man took a strong drink and took a swig.
In the distance, Yi smiled and shrugged his nose, asking the old man.
"Mr. Reilly, the Gaya Island you are talking about refers to... the legend about the Sky Island?"
"Hey? Sky Island!"
