Chapter 83 Clone Yourself

Punk Hazard at this moment.

The four of them sat down.

They discussed the future direction of technology, with Vegapunk doing most of the talking and the other three listening.

After a while.

"By the way, Doctor, do you have the technology to make an object eat a devil fruit?"

Lex asked out loud.

"Hmm? If... you let an object eat a devil fruit, it would be nothing more than integrating the devil fruit's bloodline factor into the object. It wouldn't be difficult, but the subsequent development of the fruit might not be realistic. It should be that it can only rely on the user's physical strength to achieve the most basic ability to use."

As the world's first scientist who discovered the bloodline factor, Vegapunk only thought about it for a moment and determined whether this was feasible.

Lax immediately looked quite interested.

"Then, Doctor, I wonder if you are interested in this project?"

"Ah, this, if you have enough devil fruits and Bailey to support my research, it's not a difficult topic. I can complete it in my spare time occasionally."

Vegapunk smiled confidently with his huge head.

In the field of science, no one in this ocean can question Vegapunk, absolutely no one.

There is no doubt whether César Courant can be the second best scientist in the world.

So, there is no doubt that Vegapunk is the world's number one scientist.

"Then please start this project as soon as possible, Doctor."

"Huh? In such a hurry? Is there something urgent?"

Vegapunk was curious.

Lex smiled mysteriously.

"Well....., because, before long, I might hand the Doctor over to the World Government."

Vegapunk soared into the air again in disbelief. The magnetic levitation device on his feet started to move rapidly, and he circled around the tall Rex in the air, saying as he did so:

"Eh!? Are you kidding me, Scientist Ben? I went through so much trouble to get to Punk Hazard to meet you despite the government's pursuit! You actually want to hand Scientist Ben over to the evil government!! Are you an idiot!?!!"

Roy, who was standing by, suddenly looked at Stussy for some unknown reason.

Both of them are extremely experienced players, and the strategies of the 'Dream Maker' and the 'Queen of Fun Street' are both top-notch.

So, the two of them read each other's meaning from each other's eyes in an instant.

Lex, you're scheming again!

Sure enough, the next moment.

Lex coughed lightly and released the power of the Space Fruit, teleporting Vegapunk, who was flying around him, to his seat.

Then he spoke slowly.

"Doctor, listen to me."

"What? You have to tell half the story. Are you blaming this scientist?"

Stussy covered her mouth and chuckled.

Roy was very upset.

Lex didn't care, stared at Vegapunk and continued.

"The Doctor has mastered the cloning technology, right?"

! ! ! !

Lex's words were like a bolt from the blue, and the room instantly fell silent.

All that could be heard was Vegapunk's increasingly heavy breathing.

"Wait, you don't mean to—"

Vegapunk looked at Lex in front of him in disbelief. Well, he had blond hair, was fairly handsome, quite tall, and looked smiling. He didn't look like a good person.

But why is it so bad?

I actually wanted to clone myself.

Lex saw through Vegapunk's inner shock and continued to explain.

"Yes, since the government values ​​bloodline factor technology and you so much, then just hand over the doctorate to the government! As for whether the doctorate you hand over is real or fake, I'm sure the government won't know."

Before Vegapunk and Stussy could recover from the shock, Lex continued.

"If it's just cloning an identical body, it shouldn't be a difficult task for the doctor. The problem lies with the doctor's Brain-Brain Fruit. What I'm thinking is to remove a part of the doctor's brain and give it to the clone. In this way, it can be regarded as a person with half a brain who has eaten the Brain-Brain Fruit."

"Indeed, this way, it's perfect. The government doesn't even know that Dr. Vegapunk is on our side. The doctor's clone can even go deep into the world government as a top-level spy. It's exciting to think about it."

Roy also had to sigh at Lex's idea. As for the success rate, wasn't Stussy in front of him the best example?

Without waiting for Lex and Roy to continue speaking, Vegapunk spoke first with his huge head.

"You two, have you obtained the consent of this scientist? You made this decision on your own initiative!"

Lex didn't care and continued talking to Vegapunk with a smile on his face.

"Doctor, you don't want to be arrested by the government and do research you don't like in the dark every day, right? You don't want to be imprisoned and work for the government for the rest of your life, right? Don't you want freedom? On my side, I won't restrict you from doing any research. Even if my financial resources are not as good as Mary Joa's, it's more than enough for doctoral research."

Vegapunk: ".......Hmm....Let me think about it. It's too embarrassing to clone myself. You are so resourceful, don't you have any other--"

"Doc! Sister Stussy is about to cry!"

Lex suddenly interrupted Vegapunk's monologue.

Vegapunk turned around and saw that Stussy looked like he was about to cry.

"Um..., Stussy, let me explain. I don't mean to look down on clones. I just mean -"

"PhD!"

Roy suddenly spoke up, shouted "Doctor", and then stared at Vegapunk.

moment.

Vegapunk was stared at by Lex and Roy, while Stussy still looked like he was about to cry.

The atmosphere was very awkward. It was true that Vegapunk had a very high IQ, but he might not be so experienced in the ways of the world.

Therefore, Vegapunk looked very hesitant. He looked at Stussy and opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't know what to say. He looked at Lex and Roy again, and only saw their "determined" eyes.

half an hour.

"Ahem, this scientist, uh... reluctantly... agreed..."

After saying this, Vegapunk felt as if a huge burden had been lifted off his shoulders, and his whole body felt a lot lighter.

But then he looked up at Lex and the other two, and found that Lex and Roy showed relieved smiles, and Stussy also wiped away the tears that were about to fall.

I always feel like...I've been cheated?

But I don’t know where exactly.

Lex, Roy and Stussy glanced at each other secretly, and a hint of tacit understanding flashed in their eyes.

The self-torture tactic was successful!

"Then Doctor, I will provide enough Baileys and manpower. I will arrange for someone to purchase any equipment you need. I wonder if we can create a clone of the Doctor and transplant part of his brain within a month?"

Lex asked.

"...If there is sufficient funding, it can actually be done in two weeks. There is no technical difficulty involved. It is just a repetitive operation."

Vegapunk analyzed it.

"OK! Second brother, send me the money!"

Lex waved his hand and said to Roy.

Roy: “….”
