Wang Shi Exile Emperor, his Observation Haki detected the disappearance of the Island Whale Laboon and Crocus.
"They actually ran away?"
Wang Shi wanted Kaya to consult Crocus about medicine and bring back some medical books.
Unexpectedly, the Pirate King's ship doctor was scared away by Issho and Aramaki.
Is this a sign of guilt?
Or are they afraid they'll kill the Island Whale that's ramming into the wall and blocking its path?
Oh well, if we're not meant to be, then so be it.
Crocus acts all high and mighty when he's around rookie pirates.
Faced with such powerful individuals, you simply choose to strategically disappear, right?
The three warships safely entered the waters of the Grand Line.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; the first dangerous hurdle had been overcome.
Having thigh protection makes all the difference.
"The magnetic field of the Grand Line is indeed disordered!"
Seeing her navigational compass spinning erratically Four Blues, Nami immediately put down the ordinary compass and picked up a Log Pose and an Eternal Pose.
The Log Pose wobbled, pointing towards the next island, but it was still not stable; at least it wasn't spinning 360 degrees.
Because the Grand Line's seven routes all start with seven islands.
The pointer of the Eternal Pose remained perfectly steady, pointing directly towards Drum Island.
Wang Shi looked at the lighthouses on both sides; this was the world-famous Twin Capes.
"I'll log in. I heard there's a famous doctor at Twin Capes; maybe I can buy some medical books there."
Wang Shi suddenly smiled. Since Crocus had chosen to strategically disappear, then he shouldn't blame Wang Shi for taking it without asking.
Hopefully, Crocus didn't put all the medical books and manuscripts into the belly of the Island Whale Laboon.
"Yes!"
Under the command of navigators Nami and Laffitte, the three warships anchored themselves against the lighthouse on one side.
Seeing that the lighthouse was unattended, Wang Shi, fully aware of the situation, ordered all the medical books found inside the lighthouse to be moved away, leaving behind a small amount of money as a courtesy.
Laffitte also flew to another lighthouse, ransacked it, and brought some things back.
"Flight capability, huh?"
Wang Shi looked at the flying Laffitte with a deep gaze, thinking that he also needed to develop the ability to fly.
Otherwise, his status as the Overlord of the East Blue wouldn't be high enough, and his authority wouldn't be sufficient.
The Holy Knight Shamrock wields a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit weapon, Cerberus, the Cerberus.
Those weapons were all in Awakening form; it's unbelievable.
This also led Wang Shi to have already planned out his own exclusive Emperor's Sword.
The Seven-Star Sword paired with Artificial Azure Dragon Fruit.
The Seven-Star Sword possesses terrifying sword energy and the ability to manipulate people's minds. In addition, it can transform into a dragon to carry people and fly, and can even unleash terrifying slashes of various elements.
This is definitely stronger than Cerberus from Stinkk!
Wang Shi's desire grew stronger with each passing thought.
When it comes to showing off, he absolutely cannot be outdone by Shamrock.
The Seven-Star Sword on Aska Island and the Artificial Azure Dragon Fruit on Punk Hazard were both within easy reach.
It's Vegapunk's Devil Fruit weapon technology that needs some planning.
Seeing Laffitte fly back, Wang Shi couldn't wait to get his own Emperor-exclusive equipment, the Seven-Star Dragon Sword!
We need to find a way to get Vegapunk's contact information.
Alternatively, they could purchase the technology from World Government at a high price.
Actually, this technology is rather useless.
After all, exchanging a precious Devil Fruit for a Devil Fruit weapon is less worthwhile than cultivating a smarter and stronger individual.
Devil Fruit weapons are merely the animalistic instincts of the remaining demonic will within Zoan Devil Fruit.
Its intelligence is even lower than that of the failed Awakening Jailer Beasts in Impel Down.
The Devil Fruit weapons that came out of Vegapunk's laboratory did not have the ability to fully recognize a master.
Among these Devil Fruit weapons, the cannon that ate the Zoan-type Dachshund Fruit was sold to Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and is now in the hands of Mr. 4 of Baroque Works.
The cannon, which had eaten the Zoan Alpaca Fruit, was in the hands of Shuzo, a disciple of Black Arm Zephyr.
Van Funkfreed, who ate the Zoan Elephant- Elephant-Elephant Fruit, is in the hands of CP9 Commander Spandam.
And there's Shamrock's Cerberus.
It has to be said that these Celestial Dragons elites are incredibly wealthy, actually using a precious Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit to forge a sword.
The demonic will and animal instincts of the Mythical Zoan seem to make them a bit more intelligent.
Shamrock can control Cerberus to attack Loki, making him quite powerful.
Speaking of which, even their swords are Mythical Zoan. I wonder if Garling and his son Shamrock have absorbed even more precious Mythical Zoan abilities.
···
Wang Shi and his group did not linger at Twin Capes. After obtaining some medical books and manuscripts, they left immediately.
During this time, neither Crocus nor Laboon showed up.
Laboon didn't resurface until more than an hour after the three warships of the Goa Empire disappeared.
Crocus returned to his home at Twin Capes, only to find his books 'looted'. He was so angry that he cursed and even threw the money that had been given away as charity out the door.
In the end, the Pirate King's ship doctor had no choice but to swallow this bitter pill.
After she finished being angry, she silently picked up Belly from the doorway again.
However, Crocus had no intention of seeking revenge on Gaban and Rayleigh, and could only accept his bad luck.
···
The three departing warships did not choose one of the seven major routes or head to the initial seven islands. Instead, they used the Eternal Pose directly to Drum Island, the medical superpower.
Vivi is probably not infiltrated into Baroque Works yet, and is likely not at the Whisky Peak bounty hunter base on Cactus Island.
Wang Shi was too lazy to go to the island, and even too lazy to visit the Little Garden.
I should go and finish my own business first.
Let's capture Wapol, the Devil Fruit User the Gluttony Fruit, and use him to produce Memory Metal first.
On the Exile Emperor.
"Your Majesty, you're going to arrest the King of the Drum Kingdom? He's the King of Affiliated Nation?"
When Reiju and the others heard that Wang Shi was going to take action against the Affiliated Nation again, they exclaimed in alarm.
After defeating the Overlord of the North Blue and the Twin Heroes of the West Blue, is Wang Shi about to take action against the Affiliated Nation of the Grand Line?
"Didn't you say that Memory Metal are in short supply and can't be purchased on the market?"
That Drum Kingdom can produce Memory Metal indefinitely, so my Emperor Battle Suit can be made.
By then, everyone will have their own set of exclusive combat gear.
This concerns the future strength of the Goa Empire."
Wang Shi spoke softly, and now the entire Germa science team and production base had been taken over by Wang Shi.
Even without Judge, these Germa scientists could still create Memory Metal Combat Suit.
Without the Vinsmoke Lineage Factor, their combat strength might be slightly weaker.
But it won't be much worse than Judge's [Garuda Grey] set.
"One set of exclusive combat gear for each person?"
Capone Bege and Eric, who were relatively weaker, were immediately startled, their eyes lighting up.
"So we can fly like Reiju too?"
Nami, Nojiko, and Kaya are very envious of Reiju's pink battle suit, which not only has strong defense and ignores gun attacks, but also allows her to fly.
They really wanted a cool combat outfit.
