Chapter 81 2 Attitudes
Between rights.
"What should I do with the heavenly gold in the new world?"
Mercury was in the middle of the five and asked about the next thing.
Venus spoke first.
"Let's wait for news from Lex. After all, we'll be negotiating with him in the end."
Venus thought for a moment and continued.
"The important thing is, what attitude should we have towards him?"
"In short, we can't let him continue to be so arrogant!"
Mars has the most resentment and has a bad temper to begin with. Last time, he was completely suppressed by Rhine and felt like he had wasted a lot of time.
So as a result, the impression towards Lex is not very good either.
Jupiter glanced at Mars calmly and said.
".......He is never arrogant..."
"......You can't be nice to him? By the way, doesn't he have a woman named Gion? Otherwise-"
Mars was interrupted by Venus before he could finish his words.
"Humph! Do you think you didn't have enough fun in the last war? Do you want another life-and-death battle? Do you want him to completely turn against us?"
"......"
Mars also knew that what he said was not a solution, so he simply kept silent.
"Well, how to treat Lex cannot be decided in a few words. Let's wait and see what he does next before deciding how to treat him."
Jupiter ignored the interludes from Mars and Venus and continued his analysis.
"But our bottom line is that we should not force him to be against us. If he wants a new world, then we should give it to him! As for the gold in the sky, we cannot give in! This is also our bottom line! I believe that with Lex's wisdom, he should not dwell on this point."
"In fact, this may not be without benefits. Our control over the New World was already very weak, so we might as well withdraw those forces and focus on Paradise and the Four Seas. There are more vast worlds there, and the general strength there is weaker, making it easier to control. As for the New World, just treat it as a fighting arena for pirates. If Lex wants it, then give it to him!"
".....Well, that makes sense. I agree."
Mercury analyzed it quietly for a moment and found that what Jupiter said made sense.
"Seconded."
Venus spoke directly and agreed with Jupiter.
"Seconded."
Saturn followed closely behind.
For a long while, the four people's eyes were focused on Mars, except for him who had not expressed his opinion.
“…..Second.”
Mars felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, so he agreed with Jupiter.
At this point, the World Government’s grand strategy towards Lex has been determined.
In fact, there is one most important point that the Five Elders did not say explicitly, but this is the biggest reason why they agreed to let the New World fall into Lex's hands.
That is, compared to the so-called "untouchables", they would have no grudges about letting the new world be taken over by Lex, who has the same noble blood as them.
If it were any random pirate, this would be impossible!
Even Rocks will be ended, let alone Lex.
This sea has always belonged to the descendants of God.
..........
New world.
Lex took Roy away from the Antalya Islands.
After Shanuo came back, a few people found a random excuse to kill the two animal-type fruit ability users of the Satan Pirates, and recovered the fruits by the way.
Lex also obtained two devil fruits.
Animal type·Cat-Cat Fruit·Normal type·Lynx form.
Animal type·Cat-Cat Fruit·Normal type·Snow cat form.
They are all pretty good animal types, and even though they are common species, they are all powerful and aggressive animals.
In later generations, Rob Lucci, a genius rarely seen in 800 years, who was known as the CP, fought a few moves with the Fifth Gear King Luffy by relying on an ordinary leopard form.
It can be seen that ordinary species also have a future. Although the upper limit is the lowest and the starting point is not high, it is better than nothing.
You know, devil fruits are quite rare.
In a different space.
"Are we going to meet Dr. Vegapunk next?"
Roy asked.
"Ah."
Lex continued to control the alien space and moved towards the front half of Punk Hazard.
The place he and Stussy agreed to meet was Punk Hazard.
This is not yet the World Government's 'scientific research' base.
"Well, I mean, if, if Vegapunk is not sincere in joining, should we..."
Roy asked tentatively, and although he didn't say it, Lex understood it.
"There's no need for that at the moment. Besides, let's just take it one step at a time."
“Is the power of technology so important?”
For most people, they really don't realize the power of technology.
In other words, the technology tree of this world is crooked.
Lex thought for a moment and said.
"Brother, haven't you noticed? The technological power of this world is too strange. People are still sailing on sailing ships, and farming is still the simplest manual farming. But in some corners of the ocean, someone has created powerful laser weapons, and even bloodline factor technology, cloning technology, and combat suit technology."
After a pause, Lex continued.
"There is a family in the North Sea called the Vinsmoke Family. Its current leader, Vinsmoke Judge, originally worked for MADS led by Vegapunk, an unofficial scientific research organization funded by Feld. But after Feld was killed by me, the World Government quietly intervened because of a technology called Bloodline Factor. Judge also returned to the North Sea. In a short period of time, he used some scraps of Bloodline Factor technology to create a lot of clone soldiers and conquered several kingdoms. He only stopped after being warned by the government."
Roy's intelligence is naturally enough to easily understand Lex's thoughts.
"You've already told me about the power of technology, but I'm worried about Vegapunk. I've asked around, and he's not a man who likes war."
"Ha, we don't necessarily have to let him participate in the war. Peace requires the power of science and technology."
"..."
Roy kept silent. Although his sworn brother always looked gentle, it was impossible to win a debate with him.
He has always seen the world quite clearly.
After a while, the two arrived in Punk Hazard.
"Why are you still in another dimension?"
Seeing that Lex did not leave the strange space, Roy couldn't help but ask.
"First observe Vegapunk and see what attitude we should use towards him."
Lex released his Observation Haki and instantly locked onto the two auras.
Inside a manor in Punk Hazard.
Stussy was sitting with his legs crossed, wearing a pure white suit and a Heenan hat. His big watery eyes were full of affection, but there was a hint of nervousness deep in his eyes.
The other person was a young-looking man, Vegapunk himself.
He had a huge tongue, narrow eyes, and slightly weird-looking eyelashes.
But these can be ignored.
Because the weirdest thing about Vegapunk is his huge head which is not in line with common biological knowledge!
It's really big! The head is as big as its body.
"As expected of a brain man who ate the Brain-Brain Fruit, this brain is really something."
In the different space, Roy looked at Vegapunk's head and sighed slightly.
"Yeah, otherwise how could he be the smartest person in the world? Uh-huh, are you ready? We're about to meet."
"Ah."
After saying that, the two of them stepped out from the void.
At the same time, a gentle voice came into the ears of Stussy and Vegapunk.
"Good afternoon, both of you!"
