Devil's Triangle
"What? Nightmare Roy just left like that?" Bruno asked, half surprised and half delighted.
"Yes, perhaps we're being too sensitive." Kalifa pushed up her glasses. "It seems they really are just here in Water 7 a relaxing vacation."
It's no wonder they were so paranoid; Roy's "battle record" was simply too terrifying, making him a veritable human-shaped natural disaster.
The battle with Doflamingo destroyed West Wind Town; the battle with Garp brought Drum Island to the brink of destruction; the battle with Crocodile the Sand wiped Rain Base from the world.
Their crimes are numerous and too many to recount.
This is because they were unaware of Roy's experiences over the past two years; otherwise, they could have added the atrocity of shattering the Sky Island.
The arrival of such a demon in Water 7 is enough to make them nervous. The destruction of Water 7 is a minor matter to them; the real disaster would be if Iceberg, who knows the secret of Hades' blueprints, were caught in the Pluton.
"Thank goodness this Shichibukai didn't cause any major trouble." Several CP9 members felt a sense of unreality; this notoriously difficult Shichibukai had just slipped through their fingers.
As for the fight between that Supernovas and Roy, they didn't consider it a big deal at all. After all, how could you call a fight that didn't even break a set of tables and chairs in a bar a big deal?
"Is this the design blueprint for [Pluton]?" Roy was speechless as he looked at the worn and yellowed paper in his hand. Anyone who didn't know better would think it was just a roll of toilet paper.
For Roy, it was no difficult task to remove the blueprints from Franky's body without him noticing. Even Franky himself was unaware that Roy had switched the blueprints inside him.
"Judge, come and take a look at this scroll of blueprints." Scientific matters still require the help of specialists.
In fact, even Roy was a little embarrassed. Judge, who was in charge of giantification research and drug development, was definitely the busiest person in the fleet.
Fortunately, Judge was genuinely enjoying himself and was particularly fascinated by the design blueprints of the legendary Ancient Weapon.
"Hiss, as expected of Ancient Weapon with the title of 'God,' it's amazing." Judge quickly became engrossed in it, completely forgetting his surroundings, and occasionally making "tsk tsk" sounds to express his amazement.
About fifteen minutes later, Judge looked up and said apologetically, "Captain, I'm sorry to disappoint you, I can only understand part of the content."
"It's alright, just tell me what you know." Roy wasn't surprised. Judge wasn't a professional shipbuilder, and besides, all the signs indicated that in the era of that Great Kingdom, scientific power was far more advanced than it is now. [Pluton] was considered the pinnacle of technology in that era and was given the title of "god." If it were really that easy to understand, Roy would have to doubt the authenticity of the blueprint.
In Roy's opinion, Great Pirate Era, perhaps only Vegapunk, who claimed to be 500 years ahead of human intelligence, would have the ability to fully decipher the blueprints for [Pluton].
"First of all, Pluton's size may even exceed that of most islands; according to this blueprint, it's practically a sea kingdom."
Roy found it strange. The larger the body size, the more difficult it is to move. Under such circumstances, it was simply a fantasy that Pluton could hide for 800 years without being discovered.
"Secondly, Pluton's power system is primarily based on life force," Judge continued.
"Vitality?" Roy looked surprised. In this era dominated by human and wind power, even the power of steam was considered ahead of its time. As for vitality, even in his previous life, he hadn't gone very far down this path.
"Indeed, using life as a power source is beyond my imagination." Judge smiled bitterly. It was a tragedy that the current technological power was still far inferior to that of 800 years ago.
"The life energy that can sustain an entire island is an absolutely enormous astronomical figure. Could it be Sea Kings?" Roy shook his head. "Go on."
"Finally, the power of Pluton may have been underestimated. With a full-force shot, even a large island like Lodestar Island would be wiped off the map."
Roy was speechless upon hearing this. Even with his full strength, he had only managed to destroy a city on Lodestar Island. Although that was his combat power two years ago, even now, it was still a long way from destroying a large island like Lodestar Island.
"How much material and manpower would it take to build such an Extremely Evil Battleship?" Roy was itching to know, clearly moved by Judge's description of Pluton' power.
Judge smiled wryly, "Not to mention the powerful technological support needed to build Pluton, the cost alone would be at least 10 trillion Beli, 500,000 shipwrights, plus 20 years of construction time."
"Emmmm... Sorry to bother you, goodbye." Roy's smile revealed a hint of "mmp".
The Devil's Triangle, shrouded in shadow and mist year-round, sees more than 100 ships disappear every year. For most people, it is a taboo Florian Triangle, and they would rather spend several times more time taking a detour than pass through it.
"The Devil's Triangle, huh? Ever since Moria retreated from the New World, this has been his territory." Crocodile the Sand took a puff of his cigar, overwhelmed with mixed feelings.
In some ways, his experience is quite similar to Moria's.
Both of them made their way into the New World with great success. After challenging the Four Emperors and suffering a crushing defeat, they returned to the first half of the Grand Line in despair. For their own purposes, they accepted the invitation of the World Government to become Shichibukai.
In fact, in the original history, they were even defeated by the same newcomer, becoming synonymous with being a dud among the Shichibukai. They were truly brothers in misfortune.
Of course, with his current strength, he can definitely suppress Moria without any problem.
"Hehe, Shichibukai? How about I take care of this guy and become Shichibukai myself?" Enel scratched his ear and said nonchalantly, "After all, you and the captain have both been Shichibukai, and it would be a bit beneath me if I wasn't."
Crocodile the Sand's lips twitched, unwilling to speak. In his opinion, among the Shichibukai, apart from the captain, perhaps only the unfathomable Hawkeye could defeat Enel. As for Moria, that guy whose figure had become bloated and out of shape, it was already considered lucky that he managed to escape under the thunderous storm.
"Even if you defeat Moria, the World Government will never allow you to become Shichibukai. Two Shichibukai in one fleet would undoubtedly disrupt the balance of the seas and render the Shichibukai system meaningless." Roy shook his head, shattering Enel's beautiful fantasy.
