Chapter 521 South China Sea x Material

Time flies like an arrow. Two more days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Kerrigan has fully mastered the technology of [artificial Devil Fruit].

I have to say that the technical information provided by Vegapunk is very strong, far from comparable to the semi-finished products made by Caesar Courant.

The [artificial Devil Fruit] created by Kerrigan is afraid of sea water, seastone and domineering, just like the normal [Devil Fruit], but the abilities are almost the same.

Xia Jieren was both satisfied and dissatisfied with this.

Being restrained by sea water and seastone is too fatal.

Therefore, Xia Jieren asked Kerrigan to conduct in-depth research and try to resolve this weakness as soon as possible.

Kerrigan already had a clear research direction for this weakness. She smiled and assured, "Leave it to me!"

Xia Jieren nodded slightly, looking forward to it.

While Kerrigan was engaged in research, Xia Jieren was also busy. Under his orders, the Kingdom of the Netherlands began to expand towards the South China Sea.

The actions of the [Kingdom of the Netherlands] immediately aroused the vigilance of the [World Government], the Navy and the countries in the [South China Sea].

The cruelty of the [Netherlands Kingdom] is known to everyone.

If the forces in the South China Sea do not want to follow in the footsteps of the forces in the West China Sea, they must give their all.

That's exactly what happened.

Under the threat of death, the various forces in the South China Sea soon united, either openly or secretly, after a brief wrangling. Among them, Xia Jieren even discovered the presence of the Revolutionary Army.

In order to appear less abrupt, [Cyberpunk] also joined in, posing as if it would live and die together with [South China Sea], and providing convenience for some forces.

After careful consideration, Xia Jieren decided to adopt a steady and cautious strategy in the South China Sea. The main reason was that he did not want to touch the sensitive nerves of the World Government and bring the final war ahead of time.

After carefully planning the strategy for the [South China Sea], Xia Jieren can safely hand over this important task to the [Brainworm].

Next, Xia Jieren also needs to prepare suitable materials for the [Artificial Devil Fruit] plan.

For example, Devil Fruits of common animals such as the [Bug-Bug Fruit·Fly Form] and the [Dog-Dog Fruit·Wolf Form] are easy to copy and produce.

There are also many ancient [Devil Fruits] like [Tyrannosaurus Fruit] and [Sabertooth Fruit] in the Zerg's gene pool.

But the Mythical Beast Devil Fruit is not so easy to make. Even Vegapunk himself made a Mythical Beast Devil Fruit by studying Kaido's flesh and blood.

Thinking of this, Xia Jieren began to try to recall the [Mythical Beast Devil Fruits] that appeared in the original work. They are [Bird-Bird Fruit·Mythical Beast·Phoenix Form], [Human-Human Fruit·Mythical Beast·Great Buddha Form], [Fish-Fish Fruit·Mythical Beast·Blue Dragon Form], [Dog-Dog Fruit·Mythical Beast·Big Mouth God Form], [Snake-Snake Fruit·Mythical Beast·Yamata no Orochi], [Dog-Dog Fruit·Mythical Beast·Nine-Tailed Fox Form], [Human-Human Fruit·Mythical Beast·Dainudo Form], [Human-Human Fruit·Mythical Beast·Nika Form].

In addition, there are the [Bat Fruit·Mythical Beast·Vampire Form] and the [Dog-Dog Fruit·Mythical Beast·Raccoon Form] which did not appear in the main film.

Thinking about the information about the Devil Fruits in his mind, Xia Jieren frowned and said unhappily, "Speaking of which, why is there so many mythical beasts in Wano Country... It must be that Oda is hiding something."

Such thoughts flashed past.

Except for the last two Devil Fruits whose whereabouts are still unknown, the locations of the remaining mythical beast Devil Fruits are easy to find.

Next, we just need to find someone with the ability of the mythical beast [Devil Fruit] and take some of his flesh and blood for research.

However, the difficulty is extremely high.

The last ones to take action were Luffy and Katarina Deppen, who was imprisoned on the sixth floor of the underwater prison [Impulse City]. One was simple-minded and could probably get enough materials by using some meat, while the other had completely lost the ability to resist and was at the mercy of others.

After making the decision, Xia Jieren did not delay and immediately passed the order on.

Upon receiving the order, [Global Transport Group] took immediate action.

A medical team under his command came to [Goa Kingdom] [Golpo Mountain] in the name of researching herbs, and accidentally met Luffy who was hunting in the jungle. He first treated Luffy to meat to gain a good impression. Then, he became interested in the devil fruit ability user, asked him to cooperate with the research, and promised more meat.

Everything is a routine!

As expected, Luffy readily agreed when he heard about more and tastier meat.

Maybe Luffy didn't feel threatened by the medical team, or for some other reason, everything went very smoothly.

[Umbrella Corporation] got 500 ml of Luffy's blood as they wished.

This amount of blood was just a drop in the bucket for Luffy. He would bleed more than this amount when he was injured in a battle.

The first battle was a success! Xia Jieren was very happy.

After that, he turned his attention to [Impel City].

Xia Jieren always felt that it was a waste to give the [Dog-Dog Fruit·Mythical Beast·Nine-Tailed Fox Form] to the ugly girl Katarina Depen.

It's definitely not just Xia Jieren who has this idea, any normal person would think so.

Therefore, Xia Jieren has to do justice this time and find a new owner for the [Dog-Dog Fruit·Mythical Beast·Nine-Tailed Fox Form].

[Impulse City] is an impregnable fortress to others, but not to the Zerg.

At this time, the passage left by Mori of the Revolutionary Army greatly facilitated the Zerg's actions.

[Worker Bee] dug a gap from the passage upwards, leading directly to the sixth floor. In order to avoid attracting the attention of the strong men on the sixth floor, the gap was very small, only the size of a little finger.

Even with such caution, he still couldn't escape the [Observation Haki] of Baroric Redfield. Redfield glanced at the gap meaningfully, and his eyes seemed to see through the layers of walls, taking in the movements of the [Worker Bee] and other Zerg units.

Redfield's bark-like face showed a hint of interest. For some reason, he remained seated without moving.

Xia Jieren certainly didn't know that the Zerg's actions were being seen by everyone.

After the [worker bees] opened the gap, hundreds of [kissing bugs] smaller than mosquitoes flew into the sixth floor.

Redfield raised his eyebrows and his muscles tensed slightly.

He looked at the Kissing Bug in surprise, and felt a sense of threat from it.

Redfield kept a close eye on the movement of the Kissing Bug.

In a moment, the Kissing Bugs swarmed into Katharina Depen's cell in batches.

"Is the target Katarina?" Redfield thought to himself.

Katharina Depen was completely unaware of the impending danger. She was leaning against the wall, supporting her chin and sighing sadly, "Oh... I really want to wear beautiful clothes instead of prison uniforms."
