One Piece: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 558 Pluto's Progress

New World, Wano Country Sea Area, White Dragon Kingdom, Flame Island.

Gerald, who just finished the father-son heart-to-heart talk yesterday, appeared here.

Having been persuaded by Matsurize, he came here this time just to see how Pluto is doing.

Since he left the position of the first director of the Weapons Research Institute, he has directly taken over the Black Wolf Fleet that belongs to him. He has been busy with the promotion ceremony of the titled admiral, and he has also been busy training the elite of the entire fleet of [-] navies. strength.

That was a busy one, and a little more relaxed, he went to the front line of Jinhe Island again, and stayed in Jinhe Island, Oni Island, and the mainland of Wano for more than a year and a half.

For two years, more than two years, Gerald still hasn't returned to Flame Island to take a look!
Two years have passed, and I don't know what happened to that kid Allen, who led the weapons research institute!

When Gerald set foot on the land of Flame Island and returned to his old unit, he just felt that the scenery was still the same!
It is also because the weapons research institutes are all underground. On the surface of the flame island, for the sake of concealment, naturally no changes will be made.

Gerald didn't go directly into the underground passageway to the underground weapons research institute he knew before.

Instead, he stood obediently on the island of flames, admiring the magnificent scenery everywhere.

This is a necessary procedure for outsiders to enter the Fire Island Weapons Research Institute, even if King Matsurize came in person.

Underground on Flame Island, there are on-duty personnel who use various means to monitor the outside world every day. As long as the identity of the visitor is confirmed, he can enter the weapons research institute. After a while, someone will naturally come to guide him into it. .

This is not because Gerald obeys the rules, but even if he goes to the secret passage he knew before, he will not be able to enter the weapons research institute.

This is actually the policy he formulated back then. After allen's improvement over the years, a system has already been formed.

On Flame Island, there are many secret passages leading to the Weapons Research Institute. It can be said that they extend in all directions and are everywhere, but similarly, there are also many organs in these passages.

Every day, only one of the passages leading to the outside world of the Weapons Research Institute can be unimpeded to the outside world, and the others are all activated. When necessary, the entire passage can self-destruct and completely collapse.

So Gerald can only abide by the rules honestly, so even if Matsu Rize comes, he can only do so.

It didn't take long.

"Brother, why are you here!"

Gerald's status level is naturally enough. He is the former director of the Weapons Research Institute. So far, he is the only person in the Weapons Research Institute who has been out of the Fire Island for a long time, and has left the Weapons Research Institute.

No, the current director of the Weapons Research Institute, his younger brother Matsurizawa-Allen, came out to greet him in person.

"Fourth brother, long time no see."

"Brother, why did you come back from the front line? How long did you stay in the country this time? After a long time, you set off to the front line again."

"No, if you want to go again, it depends on whether you are worthy or not!"

"I, how can I cooperate!"

"You forgot what heavy responsibility you shouldered. Only when that thing really comes out, can I, including the entire White Dragon Kingdom, go into battle with no burden and conquer all directions."

"Haha, I said, you are here to inspect the work, go, I will take you in."

"You're right, it's been so many years, and I don't know if the inside has changed much."

"Brother, the changes are naturally big. I can't explain a sentence or two clearly. You can see for yourself. Walk around, and I will show you the way."

Allen led Gerald to the outskirts of Flaming Island, until he reached the seaside, and stopped on the red sandy beach that was burned by the seaside.

"Brother, here we are."

"here."

"That's right, it's here."

"Alan, yes, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you have built all the passages to the seaside."

"Come on, go in and have a look, you know everything."

Allen stomped eastward and westward, seemingly randomly, but in fact he used his feet to activate the channel opening switch under the beach quite regularly.

That is, after Alan's ten feet.

The entire beach in front of Gerald and Allen trembled.

After a while, a dark underground entrance appeared.

"Let's go, brother."

"Okay, let's go in."

After entering the entrance of the underground passage, he went through an extremely dark and narrow passage. After walking for more than ten minutes, the true appearance of the Weapons Research Institute was revealed to Gerald in a long-lost and brand-new way.

Gerald hasn't been back for two years. This time he entered the Weapons Research Institute, after seeing the true face of Lushan Mountain here, and after seeing the Weapons Research Institute in Allen's hands for two years.

His first impression was that there were so many people!
Compared with his period, there are many more, and it can be described as a sea of ​​people.

There are so many people in the Weapons Research Institute, which is not easy. You must know that the Weapons Research Institute has rules and iron laws.

That is, after entering here, if you want to go out, you have to wait for the real king of Hades to appear.

So far, except for a very small number of people who have gone out briefly, only Gerald, the great prince of the White Dragon Kingdom, has really left here.

There were so many people, Gerald saw at least 2000 people as far as he could see, and this should be just the tip of the iceberg.

So many people have to disappear in the White Dragon Kingdom for so many years. From this alone, one can imagine the difficulty of the Weapons Research Institute.

Going deeper, Gerald made a new discovery.

He found that the underground of the Flame Island has been emptied, and there is probably only a layer of skin left on the top of the head and the surface of the Flame Island.

The more he walked in, especially after turning a corner, he discovered the true face of this place.

A giant ship appeared in front of his eyes.

"Fourth brother, is this, is this?"

"Pluto, but it is still called by this name now. My father said that when he really comes out, I will give him a new name."

"There is already this progress, hurry up!"

Gerald was very excited when he saw the huge battleship that spanned the entire underground space of Flame Island.

How big is this battleship? To put it simply, the entire underground space of Flame Island is completely occupied by it. It is about the same size as Flame Island. It really deserves to be an ancient weapon!
"Brother, where is this going, that's all, in the first year you left, it was already finished.

But you're right, it's almost here, the power system and weapon system have already been installed, and now it's only left to integrate its various parts. "
