Bright calmly watched as Wapol was taken away by his guards and made no move to stop them.
One of those guards looked rather familiar. He wore a thick green winter coat and carried a shovel on his back. As he left, he alone bowed deeply to Princess Vivi in apology.
That was Dalton. Bright knew the man's name as well.
He was the captain of Wapol's army and, among the current upper ranks of Drum Kingdom, probably the only one with a conscience. In the original story, after Wapol was driven away by Blackbeard, he had stepped forward to protect the country and was eventually made its new king by the people.
He was quite a decent man.
Bright merely watched Wapol's receding back as the guards carried him away.
The Munch-Munch Fruit's power could recombine whatever its user swallowed. Wapol would even be able to create Wapol Metal in the future—a metal that even Franky used, mounted on General Franky.

So, as long as he had the materials and blueprints, did that mean Wapol could become a super production line?
No matter how extraordinary the machine was, he could simply swallow the materials and spit it out.
Without a doubt, it was an intriguing ability that would send every scientist into raptures.
Wapol was nothing but scum anyway, so Bright might as well try putting him to work in another role.

A fleet of pirate ships was fighting the Immigration Bureau's forces.
The battle was utterly one-sided. In
