"I'm taking Vegapunk to a secluded place. Are you going back on your own, or should I take you away first?"
Vic was speaking to Olvia and the other two women. He was going to take Vegapunk to Dragon. It wasn't appropriate for the Thunder God Pirates to know about the Revolutionary Army's affairs yet, so he was asking for their opinions!
"Can't we go with you?"
Rebecca was very reluctant to see them go. They had only just met once, and had been fighting the whole time. They hadn't even had a chance to do anything else yet, and now they had to leave. How could she bear it? They hadn't tasted meat before, so it wasn't a big deal, but now that they had, they couldn't let go. At that age, their desires were as strong as wolves and tigers!
"It's not the right time for you to know. I'll be back soon, so you should go back on your own to avoid wasting my time. Use your Float-Float Fruit powers!"
Vic's teleportation ability can indeed travel long distances, but one requires him to carry or drag it while traveling, and the other is related to the range of his Observation Haki. Before they can be used in combination, it is still somewhat cumbersome!
The three women are already quite strong, so Vic is at ease letting them go back on their own. What worries him is those who are blind enough to stop them; they'll probably suffer a terrible fate!
Five days later, Vic and Vegapunk appeared together in Baltigo, accompanied by several of Vegapunk's clones. As for York? Part of her memory had been erased by Vic. Although she still remembered betraying her original self, she didn't know how she got here.
Vic built her a full-metal cell without doors, and all the living utensils inside were put in by the person who ate the Warp-Warp Fruit. Of course, York, who was imprisoned, was also brought in by him!
The prison's food and drink are taken care of by a designated person. If York is no longer needed to be released, then the ability user will basically no longer need to intervene. Given York's rebellious nature, keeping her locked up indefinitely wouldn't be cruel. Besides, York does nothing but eat and sleep. I really don't know why she wants to be Celestial Dragons!
" Dragon! Vegapunk's equipment is all here. Your Revolutionary Army also has Science Division; let them cooperate with Vegapunk to set up the research institute!"
It's best to find a secluded spot, not build it in the open, otherwise it'll be easily discovered. We still need to be cautious. Although the World Government paid for those devices, we must still cherish them!
In the end, Vic only managed to transport Vegapunk's equipment with Rebecca's help; he would have been exhausted if he had done it on his own!
However, transferring the device to the island Rebecca summoned was easy, and then sending it from the air to the vicinity of Baltigo. As long as Vic's Observation Haki could sense this place, the device could be transferred to Baltigo without the three girls knowing. Vic still didn't want Rebecca and the others to come into contact with the Revolutionary Army!
"Your concerns are not unfounded. There are quite a few Devil Fruit abilities that allow flight, especially those of birds. They can fly over an island without anyone noticing, and a large research institute could be exposed instantly. I'll find a secluded place to install these devices!"
Dragon was very welcoming of Vegapunk's arrival, and these devices were a pleasant surprise!
Of course, even without these facilities, it wouldn't matter. The Revolutionary Army is not what it used to be; it has money and manpower. Repurchasing these facilities wouldn't be a major blow. Vic's financial backer is incredibly generous—running a casino to support the Revolutionary Army. How selfless!
The recent major incident of the Revolutionary Army's invasion of Mary Geoise has greatly stimulated the Gild Tesoro. The Revolutionary Army is truly going against the Celestial Dragons and almost destroyed Mary Geoise!
The cooperation they initially discussed wasn't just empty promises to get him to spend money, which greatly excited the Gild Tesoro. He immediately contacted Dragon to request a shipment of funds, insisting on receiving them. Dragon had just returned from resolving this matter as well.
"By the way! How did you manage to get the equipment here so quietly? There are patrols all over the island, how did you do it?"
Vegapunk's equipment is now placed in the valley where Vic previously helped someone Awakening Haki. Because of the important matter of Awakening Haki, this location has become somewhat special. Under normal circumstances, no one comes here, and there are guards at the entrance of the valley!
Dragon was very curious about how Vic had managed to do it. With so much equipment, including some very large and conspicuous pieces, it was impossible that he hadn't alerted the people and guards on the island, right?
Moreover, this valley is located in the center of the island, at the heart of the Revolutionary Army's base, and there are many powerful individuals on the island. How did you manage to do it so quietly? Dragon was puzzled!
"I'll take you somewhere and you'll see!"
After saying that, Vic shoved Dragon, and then Dragon's body disappeared. Vic then took a step and also vanished into the void!
Vegapunk, standing nearby, was already used to it. He was the Vic brought to the island this way. However, he was quite skeptical about the abilities Vic possessed. Could the Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability really do this? He had even taken a trip through another dimension!
Vegapunk now very keen to study Vic, the kind of research where he lies on the operating table, or even just cut into slices if necessary. This would be of great inspiration to his inventions. If he could use Vic's Lineage Factor to create Seraphim, it would be terrifyingly powerful!
"This is?"
Dragon stared blankly at the scene in the valley, as if there was a filter through his vision, making it look somewhat different from the real scene he saw in reality!
Moreover, he just tried it and found that everything he saw was invisible and intangible; his palm could pass right through the objects, as if the two were in different times and spaces!
If Vic hadn't pushed him in himself, he probably would have thought he was already dead, existing in the world as a ghost, which is why he couldn't touch any physical body!
"This is an Alternate Dimensional Space that merges with the real world. Although it looks the same as the real world, the dimensions are different. Therefore, you can only look at things from another dimension, but you can't touch them. This is my spatial ability!"
When Vic saw Imu personally intervene, he knew that things had gotten out of control and were moving too fast. He needed to form alliances with more powerful individuals of the same level, and Dragon, whose interests aligned with his, was the best candidate at the moment!
Therefore, Vic decided to confess the matter of the God Realm to him, hoping that he could become the next God Realm powerhouse. Since Imu has mastered many Laws, Vic can only rely on numbers to win!
"What? Spatial abilities? Aren't you Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability?"
Dragon turned around and looked at Vic with a surprised expression. Everyone knew that Vic was Devil Fruit User the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, so how did he suddenly develop a spatial ability?
