Farewell, Games, Chaos

With the help of scientists in Baldimore, Black's self-modification was completed quickly this time, and he soon completed the upgrade of his Mainframe and Power System.

"That's what makes Mr. Black so terrifying,"

Jonathan, who assisted Black throughout the process, remarked with admiration, "The human brain has its limits, but Mr. Black can continuously upgrade and evolve himself as long as the technology allows."

Sirius thought it was correct.

Otherwise, why would there be a boss like Skynet Ultron?

Artificial Intelligence Organism naturally possess advantages that humans cannot match.

Fortunately, Black was his partner, someone he could trust completely, someone he could entrust with his life.

"So, Black," Jack asked expectantly, "What's been upgraded this time? Has the firepower become even stronger?"

Black shook his head. "Baldimore's weaponry technology hasn't yet surpassed mine."

Old Jonathan stated matter-of-factly, "Weapons are evil! The correct use of science and technology is to promote social progress!"

Jack curled his lip.

"However, the Energy System has been upgraded."

Black chuckled and said, "It's not just about increased endurance and greater output; the weapon's power should also be greater."

Moreover, even though Baldimore scientists do not focus on weapons technology, some of their research can still be applied to weapons.

"But of course, the gains in other technologies are even more important."

Black bowed deeply to old Jonathan, "Thank you very much for your generosity, Dr. Jonathan."

Once he has fully digested that information, he will be a genuine, All-around Scientist in any research field.

"It's nothing,"

Dr. Jonathan said in a deep voice, "We just hope to see that you, Black, can take science to a higher level!"

"This will be one of my most important life goals!" Black said solemnly, then he turned to look at Sirius, "Captain, there shouldn't be any problem doing this during the voyage, right?"

"Of course!"

Sirius smiled and said, "Isn't this wonderful? You have a goal you're willing to fight for."

"Excellent!"

Old Jonathan was beaming with excitement. Suddenly, he remembered something, pulled a Vivre Card from his pocket, and handed it to Black. "Oh, right, here, Black, this is Vegapunk's Vivre Card!"

Sirius was genuinely taken aback. "Vegapunk?"

That's a mysterious figure comparable to Lord Imu-sama, the World's Number One Scientist. I reckon even now, Black still can't match him in terms of technology.

"Go find him if you have the chance."

Jonathan said solemnly, "That guy is a pure scientist just like us. If you tell him about Baldimore, he will definitely be willing to help you."

Black did not refuse; he accepted the Vivre Card. "I understand. Thank you very much, Mr. Jonathan. Next time we return, I will definitely bring new technology to this country!"

"Hahaha, then I'll be waiting for that day!"

Then, naturally, they left.

The coast of Baldimore.

Goodbye!

The scientists, led by old Jonathan, waved goodbye to the Sirius Pirates.

The large, dark ship had slowly submerged into the water and completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

But the scientists lingered for a long time.

After a long silence, someone suddenly asked, "Could it really be them, Dr. Jonathan?"

Who knows?

The old doctor chuckled and said, "All I know is that both Black and the weapons he uses are technologies left behind by Birka. But that doesn't matter. Who the world is waiting for is completely unimportant to us."

"That's true, haha, all we need to see is technological progress."

"I really look forward to Black coming back."

"By then, he must have already developed groundbreaking achievements that were ahead of their time, right?"

"He'll definitely be able to make the world a better place."

And so, after a brief stay in Baldimore, the Sirius Pirates set sail again, slowly making their way towards the rear of Paradise.

It continues to hop back and forth between the seven routes as always.

More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and we have reached the end of the year 1515 in the Sea Calendar, with winter approaching.

However, one cannot experience the changing seasons at all on this Grand Line.

At this moment, shouts and yells rang out incessantly inside the Sirius.

"Take this!"

Yamato held a tablet with various buttons in her hand, and her slender hand moved across the buttons like a phantom.

The tablet was connected to a dark, square box by one wire, and to the tablet in Sirius's hand by another wire.

An additional line extends from this blocky box and connects to a Den Den Mushi at the top, at which point a screen of light is projected into the Den Den Mushi's eye.

At this moment, two little figures are fighting on the screen.

The two figures resembled Sirius and Yamato, one wielding a greatsword and the other a Spiked Club, with flames and frost constantly swirling around them.

This is Fighting Game that Black created at Sirius's suggestion.

The vast amount of technical information obtained in Black Baldimore, including computer knowledge, was truly a waste of its potential to be used for making a Game Console.

After many years, Sirius was finally able to play the game again, and he felt very excited.

Although it was quite rudimentary at first, the game iterated very quickly thanks to Black's learning speed.

The game is now running very smoothly.

Now at least there's something else to do to pass the time on the ship.

Not only Sirius engrossed in the game, but behind them, Bepo, Page One, Ulti were all watching intently, waiting for the loser to leave the stage.

Sirius and Yamato were evenly matched, their hand speed so fast it made the characters on the screen seem to twitch.

In the end, Sirius manipulated himself to take away Yamato's last bit of health with a single Hellfire Annihilation.

"We lost again!"

Yamato was furious. "This game is completely unfair! Nobody has ever beaten Sirius!"

"Of course,"

Luo, who was reading the newspaper, interjected, "The captain can Future Sight."

Sirius glanced at him sideways, "Why are you telling the truth?"

"Sirius is despicable!" Yamato glared angrily at Sirius.

"Let's have Black play a cooperative game next," Sirius reassured her.

"Captain, it doesn't seem like the time to play games at a leisurely pace now."

Luo waved the newspaper in his hand. "The New World is in chaos."

Sirius gave up his spot to Page One, but the kid's controller was snatched away by his sister the very next second.

Sirius took the newspaper from Luo's hand and glanced at its contents.

The above describes the recent chaos in the New World.

Actually, this has something to do with them.

A new round of Hegemony War in the New World has begun.

However, this time it's not just Whitebeard, Beasts, and Big Mom participating; a new force has entered the fray.

It's Lion Head.
