Chapter 355 The Birth of Fruit
Fortunately, the fruit embryo still looked alive and did not show any signs of withering.
Vegapunk walked over and looked at the experimental bottle x, wanting to see if he could take out the fruit embryo. Only then did he realize that there was more than one broken experimental bottle.
The jar on the left that contained Whitebeard's blood factor had a crack caused by something, and golden liquid was dripping onto the fruit embryo.
"Fortunately, the fruit embryo is still alive. That's great."
Vegapunk quickly activated the instrument and checked the fruit embryo. After a series of operations, he found that the fruit embryo was not withered, but was close to maturity.
Seeing this, Vegapunk walked out immediately and happened to meet Kizaru leading four navy soldiers.
"Kizaru, get someone to seal off this place now, the harmful substances inside are damaged!"
Kizaru first looked at him with a look of disbelief in his eyes, but still ordered the people behind him to seal off the entire laboratory on the grounds of poison gas leakage.
After everything was cleaned up and the people from the World Government were sent away, Vegapunk hurried to the laboratory, lifted the blockade, and took out various instruments to re-examine the fruit.
The results showed that the fruit embryo was mature, but it only contained a small amount of Kaido's bloodline factor, and no other information was found.
This result disappointed Vegapunk.
"It seems that it was lost to other bloodline factors when it was immature, causing some mutations inside."
Vegapunk shook his head, packed up all the equipment and put the fruit into a storage box.
Later, Vegapunk created several more fruit embryos, but without exception, they all withered and died before they could mature.
In the end, Vegapunk had to give up the research on artificial devil fruits and continue to deepen the use of bloodline factors.
And this mature devil fruit was stored by him in Punk Hazard, which is Craw's devil fruit!
"The fruit is ripe, why do you still call it a failure?"
After listening to Vegapunk's memories, Kuro has roughly understood why the ability of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit appeared, but he is puzzled why Vegapunk said it was a failure.
"The fruit is indeed ripe, but the content of Kaido's bloodline factor contained in it is completely below my expectations."
"This result will cause the fruit's ability to differ to a certain extent from the original body."
"Such a difference is full of uncertainty. After eating it, various symptoms may occur, or even death! So for me, it is not successful at all. I prefer to call it an accidental product."
After saying this, Vegapunk picked up the coffee on the table, turned off his memories, and walked into another room.
"So that's it."
Kuro could understand what Vegapunk said. If there hadn't been that earthquake, judging from the results of his subsequent experiments, the fruit might not have matured.
It withered and died just like the other test subjects, so there was no question of success.
"Then tell me what happened to this fruit that made you look for me so anxiously."
Vegapunk asked.
At this moment, Kuro suddenly stopped responding. He sat in the chair and thought about whether he should tell Vegapunk about the dual abilities of the fruit.
"You don't have to worry about me telling others. I have already blocked today's conversation with the power of the fruit. As long as you don't mention it again, this memory will not appear."
When Vegapunk saw that Kuro didn't reply, he spoke again.
"The potential contained in this fruit may exceed your expectations."
Kuro raised his eyebrows after hearing this, paused and spoke.
"What do you mean?"
Vegapunk was confused by Kuro's words.
"Some time ago, Kaido and I had a great battle. After being burned by Kaido's flames, I suddenly awakened the ability of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit."
"It's just that the ability of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit cannot be fully displayed. It has only been slowly improving recently."
"Dual fruit abilities? Wait a minute, I'll get my notes!"
Vegapunk was so excited that he even forgot the promise he had just made.
"Don't be anxious, just listen to me first. Although it is indeed a dual fruit ability, the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is not as strong as Whitebeard's fruit."
"The fruit is not as powerful as the original one, is there any more?"
"Using two fruits at the same time cannot fully release the energy. I always feel that there is a certain energy being suppressed."
"The energy release is incomplete."
"Yes, there is nothing left."
"Okay, I've written it down. I want to discuss this with you. If possible, can you give me a sample of your blood so I can study it?"
After listening to Kuro's story, Vegapunk couldn't help but beg.
After Vegapunk finished speaking, Kuro was speechless. As a scientific researcher, his first thought when encountering new things was to study them.
"As for the blood, I can give you a portion, but you have to ensure that the research results are not known to a third person. At the same time, I want you to study whether I can awaken the fruit."
"That's no problem. I'll tell you once the blood test results come out. At the same time, I'll set a self-destruct program for this part of my memory. It will be deleted if anyone else wants to know except me."
When Vegapunk heard Kuro's request, he quickly agreed and kept assuring Kuro with a very sincere tone.
"I have another question. Will using the abilities of both fruits at the same time cause any harm to my body?"
"Have you ever tried using both powers together?"
"I tried it at first, but the two abilities canceled each other out. But as the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit increased, I tried it again."
"The power released by using two powers together is not as strong as using one power alone."
"It seems that this fruit still has some drawbacks. I will give you the answer after I study your blood."
"can."
The two then talked about some issues related to the abilities of fruits. The more they talked, the more Kuro felt that Vegapunk was a talent, which made him want to snatch him away.
"Are you really not going to escape from the World Government? I can come and save you."
"Really, no need, hahahaha, I still have a few studies that require the support of the world government."
Vegapunk laughed when asked, looked at the things on the experimental table and politely rejected Kuro.
"Well, if you ever want to escape the World Government, I can help you."
"Hehe, thank you very much."
The two chatted for a while and then hung up the Den Den Mushi.
When we walked onto the deck, Er and the others had already disembarked and entered the Sabaody Archipelago.
"Whoosh!"
The teleportation sound was heard, and the bear appeared in front of Kuro again, and Kuro threw him a black bottle.
Xiong took it, pulled out a black and white panda Den Den Mushi from his arms and handed it to Kuro.
"Mr. Kuro, this is for you. You can use it to contact me if you need anything. However, I may not have the time to get through later."
The bear said gently.
"Do you really need to put yourself in that state?"
"Haha, it seems there are things you don't know, Mr. Kuro."
The bear smiled gently and slapped himself, disappearing instantly, Kuro shook his head at the sight.
