One Piece: Arrival on Sky Island at the beginning

As the air door was opened, everyone hid in, the flames went out, and the space became dark again, but only for a few minutes.

Six or seven minutes later, with a click, dark green light shot out from the ground, illuminating the world of ice and snow.

An old man with a stooped figure and gray hair, who looked like a dwarf and was only about one meter tall, wearing a pointed hat and holding an oil lamp in his hand, walked out of another passage.

Behind him, the four followers were two or three meters tall. The upper part was colored light blue and the lower part was dark blue. Their whole bodies were like chickens. They had this black skull creature painted on their head, and they were carrying on their shoulders. A huge ice coffin, with a huge half-hippopotamus, half-human creature frozen inside.

After the creatures placed the ice coffin under the command of the old man, the old man looked at it, sighed, and left with the creatures, and the entire space returned to darkness again.

Seeing this, Ye Mu ordered directly to Kurom.

"Follow carefully..."

In the dark tunnel, the old man used the faint light of the oil lamp to illuminate the road ahead.

After a while, a huge stone door appeared at the end of the tunnel.

As these four creatures stepped forward and pushed open the stone door, a huge bright light shone from inside, and a gap appeared.

After the old man walked in, these four creatures closed the stone door and left.

In the door space, Ye Mu looked at everyone.

"It seems that all the answers are behind this stone door! Lilylu, expand your realm of death, and then it's time to explore the secrets..."

————————————————————————

In the bright world, what appears in front of you is a steel castle that looks like a future science fiction world.

What comes into view are a variety of precision instruments and chemicals.

In the center is a huge boiler-like device, with dense pipes connecting all the surrounding instruments.

In front of the operation console of this huge boiler device, as the director of Impel Down City: Nicholas looked at the old man who walked in and said with a disappointed look.

"You failed again? Dr. Furumi! If you continue like this, it will make it very difficult for me to deal with it. Prisoners with animal devil fruit abilities are not that easy to find!"

The old man named Dr. Furumi looked at Nicholas with contempt without fear.

"What do you think Devil Fruit is... It is a technology only mastered by the gods. Do you think I am a god, old man? I can solve it by saying that I can unlock its secrets?"

"But I heard that the little boy who is much younger than you can already create the devil fruit of the Phantom Beast species. You were also born on the Guanji Island, and you are so much older than him... It is very difficult to be surpassed by the younger generation. shameful."

"That's just your idea. The so-called science is in no particular order. That kid from Vegapunk walked in front of everyone. As an elder, I can only be happy."

"Hey, Dr. Furumi, you can't convince me to let you out of prison and give you freedom."

As Nicholas finished speaking, Dr. Furumi's face didn't look good either.

Seeing this, Nicholas said more aggressively.

"I gave you everything you wanted. Whatever you asked for, I provided you with. Even the information that Vegapunk left on the machine island, I tried every means to give you a copy. But now you tell me that you can’t do it, do you want to go back to prison?”

Dr. Furumi also sighed after hearing this.

"It's not that I'm incompetent. As a former Celestial Dragon, you naturally understand how profound the technology contained in Devil Fruit is. Even you Celestial Dragons, as descendants of the God clan, have the ability to create Devil Fruits, which is just a copycat. The technology of the former God Clan is only the lower-level Devil Fruit left by the God Clan. Now you ask me to reach the technology of the God Clan. Even if you kill me, I can't do it. ..."

After hearing what Dr. Furumi said, Nicholas frowned deeply, and finally asked as if he had compromised.

"Then how far can you go now... When will my dream of eternal life come true..."

Dr. Furumi sighed after hearing this, thought for a while and said.

"Although I have now verified that the animal type Devil Fruit has its own consciousness, it is still far away to unravel his life design and know what this consciousness is, let alone after the animal type awakens. , where does that unreasonable and powerful power come from? You have also seen that we have many experimental subjects now, but only a few are truly awakened. Even those who are awakened have lost their minds, and these two points are The key to realizing your dreams...As long as you solve this puzzle, all the answers will be revealed..."

It's not that Nicholas doesn't understand this truth, but the waiting time is the most frustrating, not to mention that now, the animal type devil fruit ability is used less and less.

There are still some on the sixth floor, but those locked there are the most vicious criminals under strict guard by the World Government. Even if he is the director of this prison, he does not dare to take action against them.

"Is it feasible to use superhuman ability users as experimental subjects?"

Dr. Furumi shook his head.

"Although these three series of devil fruits are essentially the same, they represent the clan of gods in ancient times and the three processes that transformed the world we live in, starting from the very beginning of creating primitive life, that is, From the animal type, it starts to use tools, which is the superhuman type, and finally challenges and changes nature, which is the natural type. In this process, the Devil Fruit is constantly evolving, and the life design diagram it possesses is also becoming more and more important. It’s complicated. If we can’t even figure out the animal system, let alone the superhuman and natural systems, of course there’s nothing we can do about it..." 7

Dr. Furumi said this and looked at Nicholas.

But Nicholas just shook his head.

"Don't think about it. Ever since the Valley of the Gods incident 16 years ago, when I leaked the news about the existence of the Heavenly King, they have already taken away my surname. Now I can't even leave the Impel Down City, let alone go to Mariejoia to get close to the Heavenly King. , and Neptune hasn't been born yet... It's a pity that Locks guy is really unlucky to meet Roger and Garp... Otherwise, I would have replaced him by now That old monster has become a real god..."

"Then there is no other way. As the two most primitive beings created by the original clan of gods from the original energy of the twin trees of this world, the treasure tree Adam and the sun tree Eve, the King of Heaven and the King of the Sea gave birth to everything. Has the answers to all mysteries..."

"It's such a pity. If I had known earlier, the part of the raw energy that was finally hidden should not have been given to Locks... I don't know where he hid that part of the raw energy after Locks died. ..."

Thinking of this, Nicholas' face was filled with regret.

However, this also reminded Nicholas, and he looked at Dr. Furumi and said with a change of expression.

"I recently heard news... that a new Devil Fruit that is not under the control of the King of Heaven has been born, just like the Nika from ancient times... Do you think you will talk to me? It has something to do with the gift given to Rocks..."
