Chapter 21 The Soul of Storytelling (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

"What's going on at home?"

Heisenberg chewed the tender fish meat and asked the captain with interest what he had just said.

"Huh? Hmm"

The bearded captain was obviously a little surprised as to why the other party cared about him, but he didn't think much about it and continued telling the truth.

"It's like this. I have a son who is quite unlucky. He was having an affair with a noble's daughter. He accepted a cargo transportation order from her family, and the insurance price was a bit high. On the way to the Kingdom of Goa in the East China Sea, the cargo was detained by a certain adult, and the cargo was damaged. He had to pay for it. That failure made the child's savings go down the drain, and his leg became lame."

"Since then, he has been getting drunk in the pub in our village. No matter how much I try to persuade him, I can't change his mind. I can only earn more money to pay for his drinking."

"Alas, I can't imagine what would happen to him if he stopped drinking. Maybe he would find a strait and jump into it. My wife and I are afraid of him doing that."

"However, he was really good. He worked on the ship since he was a child and helped me to keep many things in order. At that time, there was only..."

The bearded captain stopped reminiscing, glanced around the captain's room, and pointed at the table.

"He was probably this tall at the time. Really, if he hadn't wanted to do business in another kingdom, I would have been ready to retire completely and hand over the merchant ship to him."

Thinking of his always obedient and lovely son turning into a drunk with unshaven beard, tears welled up in the bearded captain's eyes.

"Here, wipe your tears. The brief summary of the story is that an ambitious young man from a fishing village encountered a trap set by an aristocratic woman. If you can persuade him, then do so. You can't start a backup, right?"

Heisenberg handed the napkin to the captain, whose tear glands were about to burst.

"What are you going to do with this ship? Pirate ships, especially those that trade in human beings, are not easy to sell, right?"

The bearded captain took the napkin, wiped his tears, calmed himself down, and continued to answer the questions.

"This ship is basically undamaged. In the second-hand ship market, it is 90% new. However, it needs special treatment first. I know some friends who do ship modification. They can completely clean a ship by modifying the inside and outside and falsifying the ship's docking records. And with just three points, I can make some money whether I sell it or use it myself."

"If you are interested in joining our business, I can negotiate with them and at least get you a 20% discount. You know, my friends have families and need to eat."

The bearded captain thought that the ruthless man in front of him was attracted by the value of the ship, so he had to bear the pain and sell it at a loss. He said that he could act as an intermediary and help with the contact.

"Do you or your friends know of any black or official markets for selling devil fruits?"

Heisenberg took a sip of red wine of unknown vintage and asked his last question.

"This kind of thing is hard to come by. It is a great choice whether to eat it directly or auction it. I have only seen it once, and I saw the auction information in the newspaper. Maybe you need to go to a richer and more powerful kingdom to find information about it."

After the bearded captain finished speaking, he saw Heisenberg nodding his head, and he understood what he meant, so he cleaned up the plates, took the empty red wine and glasses out, and closed the door.

After using his mental power to confirm that the bearded captain had left, Heisenberg once again examined the blank soul body he had just merged into.

Only after confirming that it did not carry the original host's consciousness and was being integrated into the peripheral usage area of ​​his soul in an orderly and good manner did he stop searching.

"Strange, since these soul blank bodies have no effect on me, why am I asking questions so kindly? Shouldn't this be what the soul clone in Vashto likes to do the most?"

Heisenberg's previous method was to use spiritual power to directly guide the visitors, causing them to fall into a certain desire and unable to extricate themselves. He then took this opportunity to try to transform the fallen into a puppet, just like Tanados.

Just now, he could clearly let the captain fall into the illusion of desire as well, and then ask questions. Although it is possible that the captain would become brain dead because the obsession in the illusion is difficult to change, he has never cared about the life or death of the trapped people.

"My sensitivity to security has decreased. Could it be that the surviving souls will affect each other after contact?"

Heisenberg eliminated one wrong option and thought of the worst possible scenario.

"No, I have to set a small alarm to remind myself, otherwise, I might be assimilated into his appearance one day."

Heisenberg used his mental power to quickly set up a message similar to a timed reminder. Whenever the set time came, it would remind him from his soul not to tell stories.

The soul split in Vashto's body was formed because the original owner loved to talk a lot in the original world and studied history, so the original owner always liked to explain a thing from small to large, bit by bit, but almost no one would listen to his story, even if what he said was very correct, no one would listen.

The same is true of Vashto's soul, which can be seen from the fact that the words he said in the first few days after he was born are dozens of times more than the words he said in the first few years after he was born.

……

The navy's ships are sailing against the wind and waves, heading directly for the Kingdom of Victor.

On the deck, Zhan Guo's face was terribly gloomy, and the naval generals around him were silent. They all looked dejected with sadness on their faces.

Just now, they have learned the news that the 61st Marine Branch was attacked by Heisenberg. At the same time, news came from the headquarters that the life card of Matak, the chief of the 61st Branch, has been burned out.

"Only one day's journey away, a branch was captured and all the naval officers and soldiers were killed"

Veins popped out on Sengoku's face. None of the big pirates in the New World dared to jump on his face like that, but the mad scientist in the South China Sea took advantage of the time difference and attacked everywhere unscrupulously.

"The kingdom where the branch is stationed said that the navy branch requested them for urgent assistance. When they arrived at the battlefield, the battle was over. All soldiers in the branch except the generals were killed. The remaining personnel are missing and are suspected to have been kidnapped by Heisenberg."

"Major General Matak sent his assessment of Heisenberg's strength to the headquarters through Den Den Mushi when they attacked. He said that he was a swordsman with the strength of a lieutenant general. In the battle,

"At this point, Major General Mattak was attacked and was unable to tell the whole story."

"The pirate named Heisenberg said through the Den Den Mushi that he no longer wanted to look for the test subject because he found better experimental materials, namely the generals in the Navy branch."

Brigadier General Newton with an afro read out all the known information about the incident to Zhan Guo one by one.
