Chapter 638 The floating sea beast, the birth of the mother fire! (Two in one)

Tsugukuni Yuichi was not able to understand the meaning of Tianzheng's words at the first time, but when he heard that there was an outbreak of strange diseases on the handmade island, Tsugukuni Yuichi's first thought was that there was an unknown enemy invasion.

As the new navy launched a purge of pirates in the new world, the islands under their control were almost never quiet.

The pirates seemed to have formed a pirate alliance. In order to fight against the powerful new navy, countless pirates united together and began to attack some important islands of the new navy in a planned manner.

The town of Miguo, the largest grain producing area of ​​the new navy, has been attacked by more than a dozen waves of pirates in recent times, but the situation has improved a lot after the new navy sent Vergo there to take charge.

The Mesozoic of the new navy grows very fast. People of Vergo's age can now stand alone. In terms of armed color domineering, Vergo is actually very talented. Now he can cover his whole body with armed color domineering to fight, and his strength is also very good.

Ordinary pirates are not his opponents at all.

The headquarters also sent strong men to guard the other important towns of the new navy.

Although the new navy has done a great job in defense, there is always a loophole in a hundred precautions. Tsugikoku Yoshiichi does not think that their new navy's defense can resist all the means of those pirates.

"Whether it is a person with special abilities, we have no way to confirm it for the time being."

"The current known information is that the disease that broke out on the handmade island is highly contagious."

"Although we sent a medical team to control the further spread of the epidemic, the effect was minimal."

"The most difficult thing is not the contagiousness of the disease itself, but the strong aggressiveness of the infected."

"Please ask if they can be allowed to use more cruel means."

Tianzheng looked solemn, and his eyelids twitched when he said this.

The permanent population of Handmade Island is nearly 100,000, and unlike other islands, this island is "rich" in craftsmen.

Almost every household is an excellent craftsman, and a large number of them have joined the system of the new navy and shine in all walks of life. Some of them even hold high positions in the new navy. A large part of the navy's food, clothing, housing, transportation, and war weapons are made by craftsmen from the handmade island.

According to Tianzheng, if one-third of the island's population is infected with an unknown virus, once the new navy takes drastic measures, 30,000 to 40,000 people may die.

Since the establishment of the new navy, there has never been such a loss.

And it is foreseeable that once the new navy does this, those craftsmen who are dedicating their youth to the new navy will inevitably become alienated from them.

In just a few seconds, Jiguo Yuichiro was able to associate this incident with the horrific consequences that may be caused.

The new navy can stand up to this day, and the values ​​they promote to the outside world are a very important factor.

If this matter is not handled well, it will also be a huge blow to the prestige of the new navy.

As one of the few senior leaders in the new navy, Tianzheng still has to find Jiguo Yuichiro to make decisions when such a thing happens.

The impact is too great.

In the entire new navy, Jiguo Yuichiro is probably the only one who can bear this responsibility.

Tianzheng actually underestimated the outbreak of disease on the handmade island. When he really took it seriously, the situation had already rapidly evolved to an irreversible level.

"Tell me the specific situation. How are you controlling the further spread of the disease on the handmade island?"

Facing Jiguo Yuichi's question, Tianzheng was obviously prepared. He didn't waste words. He took out a video Den Den Mushi from his arms and placed it directly on the desk in front of Jiguo Yuichi. The picture of the handmade island was projected onto the wall.

What caught my eye was the warships surrounding the entire coast of the handmade island, with layers inside and outside, sealing the entire island tightly and airtight.

"The epidemic has appeared for a few days, and the people below have actually handled it very promptly."

"When it spread in a small area, Smoker, who was stationed on the Handmade Island, had already imposed a curfew immediately."

"At the same time, all infected patients were concentrated in the prison for unified management."

"Medical staff have been fully involved in the early stage."

"It's just that the development of the epidemic far exceeds the spread speed of ordinary plagues, and the manifestation of the symptoms is also very strange."

"The prison used to manage patients was soon overloaded."

"Smoker rebuilt the barracks outside the town, but at this time, it was actually out of control."

"The epidemic has spread completely."

The highest leader stationed on the Handmade Island is Smoker, who is now a major general of the new navy. It can be said that he is young and promising.

And the headquarters also attaches great importance to him and trusts him very much, and handed over key islands such as the Handmade Island to him for management.

This time, he actually handled the incident very promptly, but still couldn't stop the further spread of the epidemic.

"So what now? What are our measures?"

Tsugukuni Yuanyi looked at the flashing pictures on the wall, among which some photos of prisons and military camps appeared.

Smoker kept photos of himself while managing those patients.

Yuanyi noticed that those patients had a very unified feature, that is, regardless of men, women, old or young, the patients who appeared in the photos all looked a little thin, and for no apparent reason, the clothes on the chests of those patients had... All are bright red.

It seems that one of the signs of illness is vomiting blood in the mouth.

"After losing control, Smoker also realized that something was wrong and immediately asked for help from the headquarters."

"Allowing people to continue to stay on the island is risky after all, because we currently have no way to determine the cause of the disease."

"The only measures taken were to dispatch warships to Handicraft Island and take some of the islanders on board for isolation."

"Thanks to the excellent execution of our new navy, this matter was completed well. Although some riots occurred, they eventually calmed down."

"Those who are confirmed to be okay will be temporarily placed on the warship. Those with wounds on their bodies will be detained in the warship's prison."

"But the capacity of warships is limited, and many people are temporarily staying at the harbor."

"Aramaki has already rushed over, and order should be restored soon."

"only."

Tianzheng said this with a sad expression on his face.

“Is the condition of an infected person reversible?”

Ji Guoyuan naturally understands why Tianzheng feels embarrassed. If they are more cold-blooded, the best way for their new navy to deal with it at this stage is to wipe out all those infected and those who may be infected. If Sakaski had been in charge, the rescue ship might not have been dispatched at all.

After realizing that the situation was out of control, in order to ensure that such an epidemic would not spread beyond the Handmade Island, I am afraid that a demon-slaying order has been implemented on the Handmade Island.

But this is obviously not the style of the new navy.

Yuanyi is not the kind of person who cannot understand the seriousness of the situation, nor is he so naive as to risk the lives of another group of people just to save some hopeless people.

The questions asked also get to the point.

"Judging from the known results."

"The infected person will completely lose consciousness within three days and become a monster that can only bite living creatures."

"I don't know hunger, I don't know pain, and even if the blood is drained and there are fatal wounds on the body, I can still move."

"The only weakness is the head. Only by crushing the infected person's head can they stop their actions."

Tianzheng's words brought back Jiguo Yuanyi's slightly distant memory. Isn't this thing in his mouth a zombie?

Is there such a thing in the pirate world? !

Could it be that Moonlight Moria's Devil Fruit reappeared in this world? But there are various signs that it shouldn't be a shadow fruit.

The behavior of those infected is also completely different from the human puppets controlled by Doflamingo using the Thread Fruit. It is a new ability.

"The medical team has no useful measures and methods for the current illness."

Just as Ji Guoyuan was thinking about it, Tianzheng gave a definite answer.

There is no cure.

Maybe if the new navy's medical team is given some more research time, there may be progress in the drug, but the key now is that time waits for no one.

The survivors on the handmade island must not be sent to other places at this time. If there are so-called "asymptomatic" people among these people, then they will be in big trouble.

In the face of such a thing, even though Jiguo Yuanyi possesses amazing power, there is very little he can do.

"Do you think it was an accident or man-made?"

Yuanyi's tone was solemn and his expression was a little ugly.

"There's no way to say for sure, but I tend to think it's man-made."

"In the long history, there should be no similar disease outbreaks."

"And behind every strange event, there are often capable people."

"I think it may be the revenge of pirates. Our focus cannot be just on the handmade island. Other islands also need to be wary of similar things."

Tianzheng used to be the section chief of the Criminal Investigation Section of the Navy Headquarters, and his ability to analyze intelligence reports is very strong.

In this matter, his sixth sense told him that it was not an accident, and this guess coincided with Yuanyi.

"Verify the identity of the infected and deceased, notify their families, and there is no need to hide those who are in the army."

"All the sergeants from the Handmade Island gathered together and explained to them the current situation on the Handmade Island."

"As for what to do next, let them vote."

"The worst plan is to completely abandon the handicraft island and classify it as a restricted area. At the same time, the survivors will be moved to other islands and no communication with the outside world will be allowed."

Ji Guoyuan was not arbitrary, he left the choice to the families of the infected.

Yuanyi knows that doing this may cause hidden dangers in the future, but this is the best way to deal with it.

The family members of the infected people make the decision together, which will not have much impact on the new navy.

As for the future, if the medical team has no research results in half a year, Ji Guoyuan will personally take action and smooth out the handicraft island.

"Notify family members and vote?"

"It's not a solution, but it's the only way."

Tianzheng sighed, nodded, then turned and left Yuanyi's office.

After Tianzheng left, Ji Guoyuan sat behind his desk and once again looked at the various contents recorded in the video phone bug, with a trace of worry in his eyes.

If it were a person with abilities, would this matter end so easily?

If it is a person with special abilities, who would the other party be?

Is it a pirate? Is it the World Government? Or is it some other force that is hostile to the new navy? Or is it a personal revenge?

The confusing incident, like a fog, shrouded Yoshiichi Tsugakuin's eyes, making it difficult for him to see the truth of the incident.

He is now in a high position and is used to looking at problems from a global perspective.

It is difficult for him to grasp the context of the incident without personally experiencing the changes on the handmade island.

In the end, it is still necessary for people like Smoker who have experienced it firsthand to investigate the truth of the matter.

Just when Yoshiichi Tsugakuin was worried about the changes on the handmade island, the calm sea surface in front of the Cake Island Harbor suddenly changed.

The vortex on the sea surface swirled, and a huge water bag suddenly "grew out" on the sea surface. The current reversed upwards, and after a while, a terrifying sea beast with a metallic luster slowly emerged from the sea.

The dazzling light was even comparable to the sunlight, illuminating the entire Cake Island, and even the temperature in the island was significantly increased.

The dazzling light slowly extinguished, and the new navy officers at the harbor regained their sight and looked towards the offshore direction. Soon, a piercing alarm sounded at the harbor, and the entire Cake Island could hear the alarm from the harbor.

Ji Guoyuan, who was in the office, heard the sound and silently turned off the video Den Den Mushi. Then he walked to the window and looked towards the harbor. His face, which was originally full of heaviness, suddenly relaxed after seeing the scene at the harbor.

"Is it finally back?"

"Dr. Vegapunk!"

The terrifying sea beast that appeared in the inner sea of ​​Cake Island Harbor looked like a lantern fish. The sharp metal armor on its body made this sea beast look very technological.

The original huge eyes of the Lantern Master have become bionic cameras. Although the appearance is still the same, there is no life in the eyes of the Lantern Master anymore.

In other words, although the whole sea beast looks like a living creature, its core has already undergone earth-shaking changes.

The sea beast gently shook its tail and approached the Cake Island Harbor. The new navy had gathered on the shore at this moment, holding various weapons in their hands, and were looking at this inexplicably appearing giant sea beast nervously.

The navy's eyes swept over the huge fish body, but soon, their attention was attracted by the "lantern" on the forehead of the lantern master.

It was this "lantern" that emitted a dazzling strong light before. Although the strong light was gone at this moment, there was still a group of gorgeous colorful flames burning quietly in the lantern.

Gorgeous and beautiful, very eye-catching.

"Swoosh——"

Just as the navy was concentrating on guarding against unknown enemies, a slight sound of breaking through the air sounded, and Yixiao, who was sitting on Cake Island, fell from the sky and landed steadily on the ground.

He also noticed the changes in the inner sea and rushed there as soon as possible.

"Long time no see! Mr. Yixiao!"

Not long after Yixiao appeared, a female mechanical voice came out from Mr. Lantern's mouth.
