No...Pacifista is just a human weapon developed by Vegapunk in recent years, but Spar is a person from six hundred years ago, and he should have been locked up in this Royal Treasury after his death...

It may not be too arbitrary to judge that Spar is related to Vegapunk just because of his physical strength and laser. However, since there are similarities, maybe there is some underlying root between the two people.

Buggy remembered what Lilina said before. After Spar became king, he called on wise men and skilled craftsmen to research and build Turbine Project. In this case, Spar's hands-on ability should be very strong, and he is not a reckless man who only relies on force to dominate. Could it be that he used some kind of technology to transform himself into a mechanical state before he died, trying to rely on the mist here to make himself immortal and survive as a transformed human being.

In fact, even hundreds of years later, his body is still functioning perfectly because of this.

Thinking about transforming people, the more Buggy thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. Otherwise, there would be no way to explain why Spar's body is as hard as a steel plate and how he is alive to this day.

Didi didi...

While Buggy was deep in thought, Spar heard a strange sound again. He stood up stiffly and made a mechanical and indifferent voice. "The self-destruct program has started... Covering a radius of five hundred meters."

The sound was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the quiet underground palace.

"What the hell happened to this guy?"

Buggy turned around and looked back at Spar who spread out the two white wings on his back.

I saw Spar's head turned stiffly, and suddenly he took out his feet in a certain direction and sprinted over. He suddenly hugged a place in the air, rolled on the spot, his hands and feet were entangled, and the beeping sound from his mouth became more and more urgent.

A figure appeared in the air where he was being held. Absalom was so frightened that he struggled to break away from Spar's embrace and kicked him hard. I don't know what happened. Spar, who was originally very powerful, was kicked to the ground. Then Absalom rolled and crawled and ran away as hard as he could.

Didi...

Spar stood up and seemed to have locked onto Absalom. He didn't care about the others at all, and chased towards the opponent with wings beating.

Absalom listened to the beeping sound from Spar's mouth and was so frightened that he didn't even dare to look back. He had seen with his own eyes the terrifying power of the laser emitted by Spar, so he had to circle around the edge of the underground palace wall and step on the ground very fast.

Spar chased Absalom relentlessly, like a wild dog that saw a bone. He turned the corner as the other party followed.

However, because Absalom tried his best to escape, Spar chased him closely, but still failed to catch up.

"This invisible man runs so fast..." Buggy's eyes followed Absalom's figure, and he seemed to remember something, and suddenly said, "This guy seems to have gone to New World to be a tabloid reporter after Marineford War. No wonder..."

However, listening to the beeping sound, Buggy did not dare to delay any longer. Maybe Spar would suddenly detonate itself. Who knows what kind of power it would have when it exploded. Since Absalom had become a bait, it would be better for them to leave here quickly.

"Cabaji, you control Xilo, let's go."

"Yes, Captain Buggy!" Cabaji stood up and took Sakura Blizzard back to his waist. He walked towards Frans and held the latter's wrist tightly, "Please cooperate."

Frans remained silent and stood up passively.

Killer stopped Qixilu and was about to take her away, but Absalom, who was circling the underground palace, became more and more anxious. He felt cruel, turned around and gave a sudden push with the hand of a weirdo with a power of three hundred kilograms, and immediately pushed Spar in the direction of Buggy and the others.

As soon as Spar was tens of meters away from Absalom, it took the initiative to fly towards Buggy and others with the help of the latter's thrust.

Didi didi...

Hearing the sound that was getting closer and closer, Buggy was also startled. He bent his knees, covered his feet with a thin layer of Armament Haki, and suddenly kicked Spar's body back.

"Self-destruct program... countdown, 10...9...8..."

Spar's body flying in the air made a mechanical sound, and once again targeted Absalom.

Hearing this sound, Absalom was so frightened that he trembled and threw Spar away again.

"7...6..."

Seeing Spar flying back again, Buggy cursed in his stomach. He had never seen such an active mobile bomb! The key is that this guy also has a locking function. If Spar is not kicked towards Absalom, he will still lock himself after flying halfway.

"Tempest Kick. Moon White Jade!!"

Buggy's right foot separated and rotated several times, and a white disk-shaped slashing air flow flew towards Spar, trying to intercept Vice Admiral in the middle.

Spar flapped his wings behind him, jumped up a step, and nimbly avoided Buggy's kick, and flew over reluctantly.

"I'll go... there's still such an operation!" Buggy had no choice but to raise his right foot again and kicked Spar hard towards Absalom.

"5...4...3..."

Listening to the countdown, Absalom punched his fists at the same time and flew in front of him, shouting crazily, "Get away!!"

"2...1..."

Spar flew towards Buggy like a cannonball at the last moment, arriving in an instant.

Buggy was stunned in place, and the last thought came to his mind, "Damn it, it's too late, I should have thrown him out at a certain point if I had known..."

Next to Cabaji, Frans was in a state of confusion. His mouth was wide open, his pupils were dilating, and his mind was blank.

And Qixilu's heartbeat kept accelerating, almost jumping to his throat in an instant. He grabbed Buggy's arm with his backhand, and an unprecedented sense of happiness emerged from the bottom of his heart. This was probably... sacrificing love!

"0..."

Spar counted to the last sound, and as they were about to approach Buggy and others' bodies suddenly emitted a burst of black smoke, and then...

"Insufficient energy, startup failed."

With a mechanical sound, Spar's three-meter-tall body fell forward and fell to the ground, twitching slightly.

Buggy looked confused. "..."

Cabaji looked confused. "..."

Frans was so frightened that his legs weakened and he sat on the ground. He felt that his back was soaked with cold sweat.

Qixilu's hands tightened on Buggy's body, forcefully pressing out five red seals. Buggy was shocked by the pain in her arms and came back to her senses. She glanced sideways at Qixilu who was full of affection, pulled her arms out from her hands, and walked forward.

He squatted down and looked at Spar, which had a slight electromagnetic flash on its body shell. It seemed that the energy had been exhausted and he couldn't move.

I reached out and touched Spar's body. It didn't feel very hard to the touch. If you didn't touch it carefully, it would be difficult to feel the metal structure of the inner layer.

After confirming that Spar could no longer attack, Buggy stood up, returned to Frans, and looked down at Frans who was sitting on the ground., a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "King Silo, you have no trump card now... Is it time to lead us to open 'Air Springboard'?"

Frans suddenly woke up. He looked at the scattered bodies of soldiers around him, then looked up at Buggy. He murmured for a long time and finally sighed, "I lost... I lost this battle. You guys want to pass through this island. I will help you, but..."

As he spoke, he pointed a finger at Spar on the ground and looked at Buggy imploringly. "Can you hand this body over to me? I beg you!"

Buggy said, "Do you want to 'resurrect' the dead?"

"You... how do you know!" Frans was startled again, but soon became decadent, "That's right, since you dare to come to my castle alone, you must be fully prepared. Even if you know this, it is not surprising..."

Buggy was about to say something, but then he thought about it. He was afraid that his blunt words would affect the other party's emotions, so he swallowed the words back in his stomach and said calmly, "Let's talk about this later. What you have to do now is to help me open 'Air Springboard'."

"Okay, I will do it." Frans saw that Buggy's tone was a little loose. He stood up, dusted himself off, and led the way, "Follow me..."

"Captain Buggy..." Cabaji glanced at the panting Absalom in the distance, "How to deal with this guy?"

Buggy said, "Don't worry about him yet, he is just an insignificant guy."

Cabaji nodded and followed Frans.

"Let's go." Buggy waved his head gently towards Qixilu. It would be safer to leave the princess by his side first to prevent Frans from playing tricks.

Qixilu only thought that Buggy was caring about him, nodded shyly, and took small steps to walk beside Buggy.

Frans took the lead and walked in front, followed by Buggy.

The deeper you go, the surrounding fog becomes lighter and lighter. Countless tree trunks on the ground as thick as arms are intertwined and spread out in all directions, like crawling green snakes.

Four or five minutes later, Frans finally stopped and said, "We're here."

Looking ahead, there is a pit almost as big as a football field. In the center of the pit is a very thick tree. This should be the Source Tree Lilina said.

The shape of Source Tree is very strange. After extending upwards for six or seven meters, it looks like it was broken by something. It suddenly grows sideways at a 90-degree angle, just flush with the ground. There is a staircase built around the tree leading to the bottom.

After walking a few steps ahead, you can see an extremely majestic turbine machine built on the Source Tree in the middle of the pit. The seven or eight-meter-long fan in the turbine is as sharp as a steel blade, and the cold light is brilliant.

"It's really a huge project..." Looking at this scene, Buggy couldn't help but shake his head slightly in admiration. No wonder Spar spent his whole life not completing this project. The amount of the project is indeed surprisingly large.

After sighing, Buggy looked sideways at Frans and asked, "What should we do now?"

"In the middle of this turbine is an energy panel. As long as the unique energy block produced in the roots of the Source Tree is placed, it can be activated. After activation, the sea surface at the eight o'clock direction of Weilan will generate an aerial vortex bridge that lasts for a day and night, helping ships to be sent to the sky..."

Frans said it very honestly, without any concealment.

"So, how did you originally plan to destroy this turbine?" Buggy asked.

Frans smiled bitterly and said, "I wanted to destroy the energy plate in the middle, but it seems impossible now..."

While the two were talking, Lilina, who had not appeared until now, suddenly appeared from behind. She pulled the silk thread in her hand and flew towards the turbine fan. She stepped a little further in the air and landed on the annular platform in the middle of the turbine. Then she reached out and fiddled with the hole in the tree for a while, and took out a few green lumpy objects.

"Cabaji, please watch carefully."

Seeing this, Buggy gave an order and jumped towards the edge of the pit, spanning a distance of nearly ten meters, and also jumped onto the circular platform. He spread his right hand towards Lilina who was very busy. "Give me one."

Lilina readily handed the green object in his hand to Buggy, "Take it."

Buggy took it and put it in front of his nose and smelled it. There was no smell. He took it in his hand and played with it. It felt like soap at first, but after touching it for a long time, it felt like rubber.

He turned to look at Lilina who was digging the tree hole with his hands, and asked, "Is this your purpose?"

"Otherwise, what do you think I am working so hard for?" Lilina pouted, throwing a handful of green block objects in his hand into Buggy's arms, and then freed his hands to continue digging in the tree hole.

Buggy shrugged silently, took out one of the pieces, hesitated, and put it into the groove in the middle of the energy panel.

The energy board began to glow slightly, and then the white cover on the energy board was drawn out from the side, covering the grooves and energy blocks inside.

Gra... Gra...

The turbine underneath began to make sounds of parts operating, and the turbofan began to rotate counterclockwise little by little.

Buggy looked up at the local fan that was rotating at an accelerated speed, then looked up at Frans standing outside the pit, then jumped up, returned to the ground, walked over and asked, "That should be enough, right?"

Frans replied, "Your goal has been achieved... We can go back now."

"Let's go, I hope you're not lying to me."

Buggy had no intention of killing Frans. Although the latter paralyzed himself with granular leeches, he did not order Ghost General to take the opportunity to kill him, but chose to recruit him. From this point of view, he had no reason to die.

Frans said slowly, "If you don't believe it... you can go to the observation deck on the top of the castle, where you can see the sea bridge on the sea. I have already lost, and there is no reason to fight anymore."
