Chapter 29

Looking back, it was a nightmare!

Compared to the previous nightmare, Master Edie's smile was like a ray of sunshine, dispelling the darkness that enveloped them.

So men look so good when they smile?

Hancock's heart was surging, and he shook his head fiercely. No, no, no, since he was caught, everyone else was an ugly villain, and only the prince charming was as dazzling as the sun.

"..."

Edie saw the girl shaking her head to herself, and couldn't guess what the little girl was thinking.

The first time in life is always unforgettable. He didn't understand that he suddenly became the white moonlight and prince charming in Hancock's heart.

"Hancock, Sonya, Mary." Edie said softly.

"Yes!"

"I will take you back to Wano Country first, and then notify your family and let them pick you up."

Saving the three sisters of Snake Princess was just a matter of convenience. He was not interested in sending them back to Daughter Island.

If you want to take these three little girls back, let the captain of the Nine Snake Pirates do it himself.

"Wano Country?" Hancock was full of curiosity.

"A closed-door warrior country, where my research institute is."

Edie smiled and said, "You stay in my research institute until your family comes to pick you up."

After a pause, she changed the subject: "Of course, the research institute does not support idlers, and it is not a good habit to eat and live for free."

Hancock's big eyes sparkled.

She was already very curious about the world outside the Daughter Island, and now she has the opportunity to go to a country she has never seen, and she is already excited.

"Lord Edie, I can hunt, wash clothes, and cook! People from our Daughter Island are born warriors! Right, Sonya, Mary, we will work hard!"

The two sisters nodded like crazy, agreeing with their elder sister's words.

Edie couldn't help but doubt.

Is this little girl really the same person as the empress?

She is well-behaved and cute.

Edie couldn't help but touch Hancock's hair.

Hancock often feels unhappy that others treat her like a child.

Especially the people of the Nine Snakes Pirates, she thought she was already an excellent Nine Snakes warrior.

But facing Edie's touch, she felt relieved unexpectedly.

"Little Hancock, you have the qualifications of the Conqueror's Haki."

"I have been studying Haki recently, and your appearance will be of great help to my research."

"So, let's draw a tube of blood first."

Hancock was feeling warm from the head pat, and then she heard her white moonlight say something creepy.

Chapter 24 Big news that shocked the world

That night, Edie took the three sisters of Snake Princess back to Wano Country.

The second floor of the institute is the living area, with many rooms, and it is more than enough to arrange a guest room for the three sisters.

The three sisters could not hide their excitement about suddenly coming to a new country, and they did not sleep all night.

Edie temporarily ignored the three little girls, and he drew a tube of blood from Hancock as he wished.

The lights were always on in the laboratory late at night.

Edie preserved the blood of Kizaru and Hancock and put them together with the blood of others.

He now has two copies of the blood of a natural ability user.

One is Crocodile, the Sand-Sand Fruit.

The other is the blood of Kizaru, the Sparkle Fruit, which he just got.

If necessary, he can also draw a tube from Caesar.

That's right, Caesar is also a natural ability user, the Natural Gas Fruit.

"Put the natural one aside for now. We haven't found a way to make the natural one into an ability ring yet..."

"Hancock's blood can be used to study the relationship between the Conqueror's Haki and the bloodline factor, but there's no rush."

"Let's take a look at the devil fruit we just got!"

Edie took out the small treasure chest and opened it. There was a devil fruit lying quietly inside.

The fruit was pear-shaped, and the surface was covered with the spiral pattern unique to devil fruits.

Edie had never seen the devil fruit label, so he couldn't tell what kind of fruit it was.

But it didn't matter. It wasn't for eating anyway, but for research.

He cut the devil fruit open, took out a small piece of pulp from it, and extracted the bloodline factor from it.

After that, he conducted a detailed test and analysis of the bloodline factor.

So, an all-nighter passed.

When the sun rose over the Flower City, Edie yawned and walked out of the laboratory.

A night of research made him understand some things.

He had a vague idea of ​​how to use "fruit" to recycle devil fruits.

In addition, the biggest achievement was that he found similarities with animals from the bloodline factor of this devil fruit.

This is probably an animal-type devil fruit, and it is most likely a dog, wolf, or something like that.

Rumor has it that animal-type devil fruits host consciousness.

He had no idea about this.

Consciousness is too bizarre, maybe it has something to do with the soul.

Unfortunately, he knows nothing about the soul and has never been involved in it.

Alas, if people don't need to sleep, they can keep researching, and maybe they can soon find a way to recycle devil fruits.

Edie sighed in his heart.

"Father." Chen Long stood outside the laboratory door all night, like a statue.

"No need to stay by my side all the time."

"That won't do. I will always protect your safety!" Chen Long insisted.

What if my subordinates are too loyal?

Edie scratched her messy hair and asked, "Where are the three girls?"

"They got up half an hour ago, asked where the kitchen was, and have been making breakfast in the kitchen."

"Really?"

Edie was surprised.

The kitchen in the institute had never been used. He had lived alone before, and he could eat at a restaurant not far away.

"Speaking of which, go to Daughter Island and tell the emperor of Daughter Country to let them pick up the people themselves."

Edie remembered something and ordered.

He guessed that the other party would not dare to come, after all, Wano Country was the territory of Kaido, one of the Three Emperors.

The Nine Snakes Pirates' range of activities was not in the New World.

Just out of courtesy, I still informed the other party: Your child is with me, don't worry.

As for whether the other party believed it or dared to come, it was not within Edie's consideration.

"By the way, now that there is sufficient funds, the construction of the cloning laboratory must be as soon as possible."

"When you come back from Daughter Island, you should contact Du Field immediately and purchase a batch of equipment through his channels. I will give you the list of goods later."

"As for the destination of the entrusted transportation..."

At this point, Edie grinned: "Beehive Island!"

Beehive Island? Pirate Paradise?

Chen Long was stunned, but he didn't ask any more questions. He would only faithfully follow orders.

Edie returned to the laboratory, and after a while, he came out with a list of goods.

"Many of the things on it can only be bought on the black market, and the total cost is estimated to be 25 billion."

"Understood."

Chen Long took the list and immediately left the institute to carry out the task.

Du Field.

One of the emperors of the dark world, his main business is loan sharking, also known as the "Loan Shark King".

Of course, this person also has many other businesses, such as helping to purchase some contraband of the world government.

For example, many laboratory equipment cannot be bought through formal channels, and can only be purchased at a premium on the black market.

This is not the first time that Edie has dealt with this person.

What's more, this person was the sponsor of the MADS Peace Research Institute at the time, and he was also cheated of funds by Vegapunk and others back then.

Once, in order to support his own charity industry, Du Field commissioned Vegapunk to develop a firework that represents peace.

So, Vegapunk developed "GP·FLower", a flower that can bloom in gunpowder.

Then, Vegapunk won the Ibel Peace Prize...

It was Quinn who told him these things.

"When the equipment arrives at Beehive Island, build a cloning laboratory as soon as possible, and then clone a batch of mass-produced soldiers."

Edie plans to learn from Vinsmoke Judge and create a clone army.

As for why Beehive Island was chosen, the reason is also very simple.

The power of the World Government cannot reach that place.

Secondly, Beehive Island is a paradise for pirates and an island where pirates gather.

On that island, power is truth, and whoever has the biggest fist is the master of the hive!

Gathering his thoughts, Edie turned upstairs and had breakfast with the three sisters of Snake Princess.

...

Two days later.

The Celestial Dragon attack in the Sabaody Archipelago was finally reported in the newspapers.

The Navy wanted to suppress the news. After all, no one was caught, and it would have a bad impact on the Navy if it was reported in the newspapers.

But the boss of the World Economic News, one of the emperors of the dark world, Morganse, obviously did not listen to the navy's request.

This man, nicknamed "News King", is always on the road to big news, even at the cost of making up stories.

So,

"Shock! Who is the mysterious scientist in the attack of the Celestial Dragons?"

A sensational news, delivered by tens of thousands of news birds, quickly spread throughout the Grand Line.

The news reported Edie, but without a name, just referred to as a "mysterious scientist".

On the contrary, the news focused on describing Edie's two subordinates [Rat] and [Dragon].

A mysterious great swordsman!

The other, transformed into a blue dragon, pierced through the Sabaody Archipelago with a breath of dragon!

The latter even took a photo in a friendly way.
