Chapter 886
The development of devil fruits has never had the so-called correct direction!
Vegapunk's words made Darren stunned.
Although he successfully awakened the Magnet-Magnet Fruit in the fight with Michael Saint, the leader of the Knights of God, the side effects after awakening actually made Darren himself doubtful in his heart.
Because in the original plot, no matter what kind of devil fruit, the awakening state will not bring such serious side effects like his own!
Although after this period of exploration, he has found a way to use "magnetic field rotation" to assist in practice, and reduced the side effects to an acceptable level... but this method has not been certified by professionals after all.
It is true that the fat man in overalls is a genius scientist, but he is more good at virus research and biological transformation. He has extremely limited research on devil fruits. After all, he has not awakened the devil fruit himself.
However, now Vegapunk's affirmation directly helped Darren clear the last trace of doubt in his heart.
The reason why his devil fruit has such terrible side effects is because he is awakening in a direction that no one has ever tried!
In other words, this is an "evolutionary" direction that humans have never had before!
"It's just that Mr. Darren, in the pursuit of a higher, unknown road, life is always full of twists and turns."
Vegapunk's voice gradually became heavier, and he said slowly:
"According to my judgment, even if you use the method you mentioned... the movement of the "low-frequency magnetic field" to stimulate the body to achieve the effect of evolution, it may not be able to completely eliminate its side effects."
"Chronic poison is still poison. Although the scientific community often says that "dose is the key to toxicity", in fact, even the smallest dose, toxins are still toxins, and long-term accumulation will still cause burden and harm to the body."
Darren frowned and said:
"Dr. Vegapunk, do you mean that the damage to the body caused by the rotation of the magnetic field is inevitable?"
Vegapunk nodded and said:
"According to my estimate, this is the case, but there may be differences in the end."
"Any evolution has a price. Since the devil fruit itself is "unnatural", this means that evolution must pay the price of "fighting" nature."
Darren fell silent.
Stussy also cast a worried look at Darren.
The so-called cost, to put it bluntly, is the loss of life.
Borsalino stopped his hand, raised his head, and his eyes fell on Darren.
Vegapunk pondered for a moment, and suddenly said:
"If you choose another direction, the risk is much smaller... It is consistent with the awakening direction of most parahuman devil fruits. Don't force yourself to change and interfere with external materials. In this way, the burden and pressure on the body should be much smaller..."
"--In that case, I can't be as strong as I am now, right?"
Darren suddenly spoke up and interrupted Vegapunk.
Vegapunk was stunned and hesitated:
"It should... not be achieved."
"According to my understanding of the magnetic fruit, the development direction of external awakening can generally only give external objects "positive and negative poles" to the extent of changing the magnetic field strength within a certain range..."
"--Then I have no problem."
Darren suddenly laughed.
"The development direction of 'safety' is not suitable for me."
"I'd rather be a lunatic."
Vegapunk frowned at Darren and asked doubtfully:
"Mr. Darren, are you sure?"
"Human life is only once, and a long enough life is the basis of all evolution."
"Long life, even immortality, has always been the ultimate dream of mankind since ancient times."
"I have been conducting relevant research over the years, but the aging of the body is inevitable, so I plan to separate my brain from the body in the future... The body can age and disappear, but thinking and knowledge can last forever."
"In this way, I will have enough life... to pursue knowledge and truth."
Darren glanced at Vegapunk's astonishingly large and deformed head.
The weird brain is loaded with knowledge that humans cannot imagine.
"Dr. Vegapunk, I admire your research on truth and knowledge, but unlike you, I am just a layman."
The corners of Darren's mouth rose up a little bit with a smile.
"If I wanted to live long enough, I would not have fallen out with the Five Elders on Firthseck Island from the beginning."
"The length of life is important, but I have no interest in pursuing knowledge and truth.""If you can't feel completely satisfied at the moment, you will feel lost..."
When he said this, Darren suddenly froze.
Vegapunk was also froze.
Stussy stayed there.
Borsalino's eyes widened slightly under his sunglasses, and his expression became extremely wonderful.
The world seemed to stop for a moment at this moment -
Then the next moment,
Boom! !
A majestic, deep, vast and sky-like terrifying momentum burst out from Darren's body, spreading out in all directions.
In an instant, dense black and red lightning occupied the entire space inside the laboratory.
Countless glassware and experimental equipment could not withstand the impact of this momentum, and they broke directly with crackling and emitting a lot of white smoke.
One after another, the modified creatures and steel beasts fell to the ground, the former foamed at the mouth and had stars in their eyes, and the latter had electric currents running and smoke coming out of their heads.
This terrifying momentum did not stop because of the obstruction of the research institute. Instead, it swept out more and more fiercely, radiating the entire island in the blink of an eye.
If someone looked down at the entire Egghead Island from a high altitude, they would be horrified to see such a scene:
The sky above the entire Egghead was filled with strong winds and black and red lightning at this moment, the sky was surging, and the sea was raising huge waves.
The world is like purgatory!
"This domineering aura!?"
Vegapunk didn't know when he had been protected by Borsalino behind him. The whole person seemed to be fainting at any time because of the impact of this momentum, but his eyes were wide open, staring at Darren with flying black hair.
Stussy's face was also full of disbelief. He raised his arm with one hand to block, but his body was suppressed and retreated step by step.
The expression on Borsalino's face changed, and finally gradually evolved into a meaningful smile.
However, within a few seconds,
This momentum came so fast and disappeared so quickly.
Everyone felt their breath suddenly relax, and all the strange phenomena in front of them disappeared.
In the messy laboratory with papers flying everywhere,
The black-haired young man stood there in a daze, looking at his hands in a daze, as if he was still immersed in shock.
"I can't achieve it..."
He muttered to himself with a dazed look on his face, finishing what he wanted to say just now.
"...Justice as you wish."
