Shocking the World, Dr. Vegapunk Advances!

Dr. Vegapunk's return undoubtedly added enormous strength to the New Marines.

Although Dr. Vegapunk himself was not some top-tier powerhouse, to an organization, he was even more important than an Admiral-class combatant.

Admirals were indeed among the world's strongest fighters, but an Admiral was still only one person. The sea was so vast that no matter how formidable someone was, they could not possibly cover every base and protect everyone within their territory.

Dr. Vegapunk was different. The abilities he possessed could give ordinary Marines the power to fight powerful pirates. Although Seraphim technology could not perfectly replicate Admiral-level combat power, Seraphim could deal with the vast majority of pirates with bounties below 1.5 billion without much difficulty.

More importantly, the effort required to create a Seraphim was far lower than that needed to cultivate an Admiral.

Once they fully converted the resources currently under their control into combat power, the New Marines would undoubtedly become the strongest force in the world.

Far surpassing the World Government.

The New Marines already possessed immense power capable of influencing the world. Now, they would gain the decisive power to determine its course!

This base possessed exceptional mobility and concealment. Its only flaw was that Stomach Island was extremely lacking in mineral resources and could not grow food, so
