The genius scientists threw themselves into research and development and worked fast. They did not even make Xie Wen and the others wait a full week. On the afternoon of the fifth day, Meowrah directed several enormous Construct Snowmen to carry a device resembling a lookout tower from Breath of the Wild aboard the Toot Toot Forward.
Of course, the device was much smaller than a lookout tower, measuring only about one-fifth the size of the Dudu's mainmast.
"This is the Spatial Field Stabilizer we developed by improving on the Spatial Field Generator Vegapunk invented," Edison said as he came over to Xie Wen and introduced the device. "So once it's activated, we can't say whether Imu's teleportation will still work, but your teleportation device definitely won't."
Xie Wen: "..."
But after throwing cold water on things, Edison soon offered some good news-
"We tested it on Warp-Warp Fruit users implanted with Green Blood. Within this device's range, almost none of them could activate their Devil Fruit abilities."
"Almost?"
"Yes. One member who was particularly compatible with the Warp-Warp Fruit could still use Teleportation when he activated his ability at full power."
Edison nodded and explained with great precision, "But even when he successfully activated his ability, its effects were greatly reduced. Not only did he need to charge it up for a while, but his teleportation range was less than a tenth of what it normally was. As for how much it will affect Imu, I can't estimate that. Even different fruits with similar abilities may have completely different underlying rules. The Space Stabilizer might be completely useless against Imu, or its effects could be better or worse."
"No problem. Even if it really doesn't work, we have other plans."
The cautious Sapphire Star shrugged. At worst, they would
