Chapter 554 I think so too

I don’t know how long it’s been…

Luffy was lying on the ground, gasping for breath, looking extremely tired.

But there was an extremely happy smile on his face.

Beside him, Vegetto stood upright, his tall figure still so oppressive.

He lowered his head slightly, looked at Luffy who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, and couldn't help but said with a smile:

"No! Luffy! How come you wilted so quickly?"

"I remember you were very arrogant when you awakened your Nika form!"

"hu~hu~"

"Vegette, you...how come your strength has increased so much all of a sudden?"

Luffy asked, breathing heavily.

Luffy sounded a little jealous as he spoke. He had worked so hard to finally surpass Vegetto in strength.

Qualified to drive Vegito!

But in the blink of an eye, Vegito transformed and became stronger than him, and the qualification he had worked so hard to obtain was gone.

"Hahaha……"

"You think my transformation is a joke! I am the culmination of the technology of the Great Kingdom because I have the core of the machine!"

"Before I had the core, my strength wasn't even half of what it is now. How could you possibly beat me?"

"Especially since you have only just awakened the ability of the Nika form and have not yet developed it to the second stage!"

"Second stage form?"

Luffy was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and looked at Vegetto curiously, his eyes full of inquiry.

"That's right!"

"Second stage form!"

Vegetto nodded and continued:

"The Nika Fruit is one of the only two fruits in this world that has the name of God. It is naturally different from other fruits!"

"The biggest difference is that the Nika Fruit can be awakened a second time. The power after the second awakening will be much stronger than the first awakening!"

"Your current strength is already enough to make you one of the strongest people in this world, but if you awaken a second time..."

Vegetto paused and looked at Xia Chen who was not far away. Then he turned to Luffy again and said:

"Besides the master, you won't have any other rivals in this world!"

"really?"

Hearing this, Luffy immediately jumped up from the ground, his eyes immediately turned into stars.

His whole body was emitting excitement, and there was no trace of the exhausted look from before.

"My fruit can awaken a second time? How can I awaken a second time?"

Luffy asked immediately.

"The essence of fruit awakening is that when your body and mind grow to keep up with your fruit, it will awaken!"

"The first awakening is like this, and the second awakening is no more than this!"

(⊙o⊙)...

However, after Vegetto finished speaking, Luffy looked at him in confusion.

He knew all the words Vegetto said and could understand them, but why didn't he understand what they meant when put together?

Vegito: . . .

Looking at Luffy like this, Vegetto couldn't help but slap his head.

I almost forgot that Luffy is a fool and you can't talk to him about profound things.

With this in mind, Vegetto spoke again:

"In layman's terms, when you become strong enough, the fruit will naturally awaken!"

As expected, after Vegetto finished speaking this time, Luffy immediately clapped his hands and said with sudden enlightenment:

"Oh~ Got it!"

On the other side, Robin looked at Vegapunk next to him curiously and asked:

"Doctor! Luffy's fruit can actually awaken a second time?"

Vegapunk: ...

"Hmm... I don't know about that either!"

Vegapunk was silent for a long time before spreading his hands and speaking.

Everyone: .

If you don’t know, then why do you pretend to be thinking for so long?

When Vegito and Luffy were fighting, everyone came out of the building and watched this almost overwhelming battle together.

Vegapunk looked at Vegetto and said calmly:

"But since Vegito said it can be awakened, then it should be possible to awaken a second time!"

"I only know a little about the Straw Hat Boy's fruit called the God's Name, but I definitely haven't done any deeper research on it!"

"After all, the World Government has erased everything related to it from history!"

"I only knew about the existence of this fruit from some historical records, and when I saw the projection of Joyboy, he mentioned it to me!"

Vegapunk paused for a moment, then looked at Vegetto with amazement and said:

"I had thought that the technology of the huge kingdom nine hundred years ago was very advanced, but I never thought it could reach this level!"

"What an amazing creation!"

"I definitely can't create something like this with my current abilities!"

"Don't underestimate yourself! You can't build this thing just because you are a pioneer in technology in this era!"

“No one can give you a direction to move forward. Everything depends on you!”

"If you were living in the era of the Great Kingdom, I also believe that you could become one of the top scientists!"

Xia Chen looked at Vegapunk and said calmly.

Xia Chen had never doubted Vegapunk's ability. After all, the fact that he could create so many cross-era products in this era was a testament to his ability.

Moreover, all of these were researched by him himself, which makes them even more valuable.

The concepts of originality and plagiarism are completely different!

"Um?!"

Hearing this, Vegapunk looked at Xia Chen in surprise, then burst into laughter, and the laughter lasted for a long time before stopping.

"Hahaha……"

“Actually, I think so too!”

Everyone: .

Then Xia Chen turned his gaze to Luffy and Vegetto on the other side and said softly:

"Luffy's Nika Fruit can indeed be awakened a second time!"

"But with Luffy's current strength, he still has a long way to go before he can achieve a second awakening!"

"Besides, even if Luffy's strength reaches that level and he awakens the Nika Fruit a second time, he is still not invincible in this world except for me!"

"There's another person Luffy will never be a match for!"

Xia Chen's words came lightly, but the content shocked everyone present.

Even Luffy and Vegetto, who were not far away, heard what Xia Chen said and looked over at the same time.

Vegetto looked at Xia Chen, thought for a moment and then asked:

"Master! The person you are talking about..."

"Is it Im?"

"Correct!"

Xia Chen nodded and said:

"Imu isn't as simple as you think! Vegito!"
