Chapter 421 It’s All Vegapunk’s Fault!

Since a year ago, Caesar Courant felt that his luck was getting worse...

First, the weapon of mass destruction he developed was stopped by the jealous guy Vegapunk, and then the people of the World Government, under his instigation, arrested him for forcibly detonating the unfinished product.

Although he later successfully escaped from the prison ship that was escorting him, in order to avoid being wanted, Caesar Courant could only live in a remote island under an assumed name for a long time.

After finally avoiding the navy's search and sneaking back to Punk Hazard, he found that the backup Smyrnay he left behind had disappeared, and even many of the equipment on the island had been moved away. As for the prisoners who might survive, there was no trace of a single person.

This made Caesar Courant, who had planned to use the special environment of Punk Hazard to continue secretly studying his unfinished "Kingdom of Death", dumbfounded instantly.

What made him speechless was that, because the poisonous fog on the island had dissipated, when Caesar landed on the island, he happened to run into a member of the CP organization who came to check the situation...

Although he successfully escaped the pursuit of CP agents by virtue of his more familiarity with Punk Hazard, Caesar Courant also successfully took the blame for "stealing the experimental results and equipment of the scientific forces" for Xie Wen.

As a result, Caesar Courant's bounty soared from the original 300 million Baileys to 500 million Baileys in an instant.

In short...

It's all Vegapunk's fault!

However, this difficulty can't hit Caesar Courant. Although he is a cruel and cunning scum who bullies the weak and fears the strong, he is also a crazy scientist.

In order to create the "King of Death" that he had always dreamed of and prove that he was a more talented scientist than Vegapunk, Caesar Courant carefully avoided the pursuit of the Navy and CP agents, and contacted the "Loan Shark King" Du Feld, the big sponsor who funded the establishment of MADS, to ask for another sum of money from him to continue his research.

However, MADS was forced to disband that year, and Du Feld, as the main investor, was also warned by the World Government, so he would never go to touch this bad luck again.

Although the title of "Emperor of the Underworld" sounds very domineering, it is actually completely incomparable with the "Four Emperors" who can truly compete with the World Government.

But under Caesar's shameless entanglement, Du Feld decided to introduce him to a sponsor who was not afraid of the World Government's accountability because of their original friendship.

So today, Du Feld brought Caesar Courant to attend the Big Mom tea party and ran into Smyrna who was subdued by Xie Wen and his team.

"Well, it seems that you made a mistake, meow."

The black-bellied Huiyuan Meow had of course guessed that the person in front of her was the culprit of the Punk Hazard gas leak, but she took advantage of her age and pretended to know nothing and put Shirley back on her head.

"Also, its name is Shirley, not Smyrna."

(=ˇˇ=)

The little kitten nodded seriously, and Shirley on her head also nodded synchronously.

Caesar Courant's face was twisted with anger. He applied for the six-cornered salamander fruit to the world government when he was in the science corps. How could he make a mistake? !

But even though he was angry, Caesar did not lose his mind. Not to mention the consequences of making trouble at Big Mom's tea party, the recently famous Blue Star in front of him was already someone he could not afford to offend.

As a bully, he certainly wouldn't clash with Xie Wen and his friends just for a "pet".

Anyway, as long as he applied for research funding from Big Mom, it would be easy to make another batch of poison gas. The devil fruit was also obtained from the World Government, so he didn't suffer any loss...

Caesar, who couldn't go to trouble Xie Wen, could only comfort himself like this.

As for where the missing equipment on Punk Hazard went, Caesar had no intention of asking Xie Wen.

Even if he knew, what would happen? The World Government would never listen to his explanation, and after the poison gas on Punk Hazard dissipated, the remaining large equipment on it would definitely be recycled, and his original idea was basically impossible to realize.

"Shhh... I was wrong."

Weighing the pros and cons quickly in his mind, Caesar Courant quickly put on a friendly face, rubbing his hands and laughing, "Actually, I wasn't sure before, because the color and body shape of Smythe are not the same as this 'Shirley'."

He actually had another purpose for saying this, which was to know how Xie Wen and the others removed the toxicity of Smythe.

Compared to other things, this is what Caesar cares about the most.

If the cat with Shirley on top is Klee, maybe he can really get it out... at least he can get some of it out.

Unfortunately, the cat with Shirley on top is Huiyuan Meow, who is a little black-bellied.

"Is it meow?"

(=ω=)

The little kitten tilted his head innocently, "When I picked up Shirley, it was only this big. Maybe the Smythe you know is one of its adult peers? As for the color..."

She raised her paw and poked Shirley's body gently, then took out a bottle of blue potion and poured it into her body. Shirley's body immediately turned the same blue as the potion.

"Look, this strange creature is a cat that can change color."

"Huh?"

After Huiyuan Meow's operation, Caesar really became a little unsure...

Could it be that he really made a mistake, and the "Shirley" in front of him was actually some special creature similar to Smythe?

No! This must be Smythe, even its cry is the same!

After a moment of confusion, Caesar finally did not let the black-bellied little kitten lead him into the ditch, but he was still led astray...

He really thought that Huiyuan Meow just picked up Smythe, and Smythe's current situation might be because of some changes in Punk Hazard, so its physical characteristics have been changed.

And Smythe may have lost her memory because of this, so she can't remember me!

Caesar was thinking frantically, and at the same time he was full of curiosity about Smythe's current situation...

Damn! I really want to study it!

He stared at Smythe, who was sitting obediently on top of the gray cat, and hated her in his heart.

Caesar didn't hate Xie Wen and the others for taking his Smythe away, nor did he hate Smythe for turning his back on him as his master. He hated only one person from the beginning to the end...

That's right! It was Vegapunk!

If Vegapunk hadn't been nosy and jealous, how could he have fallen to this point, and Smythe wouldn't have been taken away by others!

So...

It's all Vegapunk's fault!
