Pirates: The Scientist Who Became the Ultimate Lifeform.

Perhaps due to the effects of the demon bloodline and the gas fruit in his body, the armor that Caesar grew was dark purple in color.

The armor continued to grow, and finally Caesar's entire body was covered with armor.

Especially Kate's head, even the part where her eyes are exposed has been replaced by transparent armor, and the most eye-catching part is the pliers-like mouth guard.

The scales growing on Caesar's body are arranged differently from the scales of fish. Instead, they are like exoskeleton armor.

Caesar looked at his body wrapped in dark purple armor, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Caesar awakened the merman bloodline, which turned out to be the bloodline of the legendary overlord Dunkleosteus from ancient times.

Dunkleosteus

Dunkleosteus

Dunkleosteus is a genus of the family Deinonychus in the order Arthropodaci, also known as the shellfish. It is the largest known placoderm fish, with a body length of up to 11 meters.

The body shape is spindle-shaped, similar to that of a shark; the head and neck are covered with thick and hard carapace; the skin on the back is dark in color; and the abdomen is silver.

Dunkleosteus was a Devonian fossil that lived between 3.6 million and 4.15 million years ago and inhabited shallow waters.

It was able to prey on any creature in the ocean at the time and was probably the first king of beasts on Earth, more than 1 million years earlier than the birth of the first dinosaur on land.

It is a carnivorous fish, but it has no teeth. Instead, it has a head guard growth on its snout that acts like a guillotine and can cut off anything.

The largest predator in the Devonian oceans and the largest carnivorous fish ever to appear on Earth, it is known as the Tyrannosaurus Rex of the ocean.

Unlike Dunkleosteus, only the upper part of the body is covered with armor.

Caesar's body may have a different structure from that of the Dunkleosteus, so Caesar can grow exoskeleton armor that is as hard as diamond all over his body.

Now Caesar looks a bit like Lufa in Armor Hero.

However, compared to the opponent's simple armor, the armor on Caesar seemed to be tailor-made for him, fitting tightly against his skin. The symmetrical scales revealed a unique beauty.

And the structure of this armor is very complex, it is composed of tens of thousands of tiny armor pieces.

Caesar moved his body and didn't even feel any difference from his usual state. His flexibility didn't decrease at all.

And his physical strength actually increased again.

You must know that since the development of the ghost bloodline, the extent of the increase in one's physical strength has been getting smaller and smaller.

It is estimated that in a few years, even if Caesar develops to the final stage, he will only look like Kaido in the future.

Caesar feels that his current physical fitness is enough to compete with the future Kaido.

The strength of the body also further enhanced the armament color in Caesar's body. Although the quality of his armament color domineering did not undergo a breakthrough change, the quantity has undergone a drastic change.

Caesar felt that he could even cover the entire combined giant with armament domineering like Barrett in the future.

This time, the improvement is huge for Caesar. His only disadvantage before was that he could not resist the powerful armament domineering.

Now, with this exoskeleton armor, Caesar is confident that he can tie with the opponent or even gain some advantages.

It can only be said that it is worthy of being the overlord of ancient times. The Tyrannosaurus in the sea and the Dunkleosteus’ bloodline have a very powerful boost.

However, Caesar was troubled by one thing: he found that his cells could not withstand too many bloodline factors.

Caesar estimated that if he took on two or three more bloodline factors, his cells would reach their limit. Even if his body became stronger again, he probably wouldn't be able to add a few more bloodline factors.

"Alas, there is really no other way. I will get some samples from Blackbeard and do some research when we get to the New World."

"I hope that boy's alien body can bring me some new development directions."

The human body has its limits after all, but Caesar believes that bloodline can change all of this, even if it means becoming a non-human.

Caesar thought about it and all the exoskeleton armor on his body was retracted into his body. Looking at his clothes that had been torn, several huge armors grew out of Caesar's key positions to cover his vital parts.

Then Caesar used Life Return to reduce his size to about four and a half meters, put on new clothes and came to the deck.

Although Caesar likes his body to be bigger, it is true that his big body brings inconvenience to his life, so Caesar is basically in the form of life returning on the Devil.

Caesar came to the deck. It was dark and the lights on Carlos Island in the distance were bright.

Only Dongli and a few crew members were drinking on the deck.

"Hey, Donli, wait a minute. I'm going to jump into the sea to do an experiment. You have to pull me up in five minutes."

After saying that, Caesar handed Donli a rope, and the other end of the rope was tied around Caesar's waist.

Caesar wanted to try what would happen to him now at the bottom of the sea and what changes would occur compared to before.

"Captain, are you kidding me? You are a Devil Fruit user. If you jump into the sea now, aren't you courting death?"

"Why are you talking so much? Do you believe me?"

"Well, I believe it."

There was no choice but for Dongli to pull one end of the rope, ready to pull Caesar up at any time.

Caesar threw his upper body clothes aside, then made a standard diving posture and jumped into the sea with a splash.

After obtaining the devil fruit, Caesar once tried to stay in the sea to experience what it felt like. The feeling of total weakness made Caesar feel uncomfortable.

But this time, after Caesar jumped into the sea, he could feel that the weakness he had felt before had eased a lot, and he could barely swim in the sea.

Moreover, the breathing problem was also successfully solved. After awakening the fish-man bloodline of Dunkleosteus, Caesar could breathe freely in the water.

"Then the next step is the most important experiment."

I saw exoskeleton armor beginning to grow on Caesar's body. Countless sheet-like armors were intertwined together, forming an impenetrable exoskeleton armor on Caesar's body.

When the exoskeleton armor was formed on Caesar's body, Caesar's own body was isolated from the sea water outside.

Then a look of surprise appeared on Caesar's face. His experimental guess was indeed correct. At this moment, Caesar felt excited that his physical strength had not been weakened at all.

Now he has actually successfully overcome the weakness of Devil Fruit users who cannot move in sea water.

At this point, Caesar not only eliminated one of his major weaknesses, but also gained another trump card.

After confirming that the time had come, Dongli hurriedly pulled the rope and pulled Caesar out of the sea.

In fact, Caesar could have swam up by himself, but he did this in order to make those who were monitoring him think that he was training his patience with sea water.

Caesar's guess was correct. There were no less than ten people watching them with binoculars on a high building in the town a few kilometers away from the port.

They also reported what had just happened to their people behind the scenes, and those people behind the scenes only guessed that Caesar was training his resistance to sea water.

Because their people only saw Caesar being pulled out of the sea passively and seemingly powerlessly, and they did not doubt this.

Although they were wondering why Caesar was doing this kind of exercise in the middle of the night, this kind of exercise was a normal behavior.

Caesar looked at their worried expressions, laughed, patted them on the shoulder to show that he was fine, and then returned to the temporary prison in the cabin.

There were still hundreds of pirates imprisoned in the prison at that time. Caesar ignored their noise, insults, and pleas for mercy and walked straight to the deepest part of the cell.

There are also three very interesting prisoners held here.

They are the three-dimensional dragon Kas with a bounty of 9700 million.

Assassin Hardaway with a bonus of 7600 million.

There is also an A-level bounty hunter from the Bounty Association, but Caesar doesn't know his name yet.

However, among these three people, Caesar was most interested in the bounty hunter from the bounty guild.

The opponent's strength is still very good. Caesar estimates that he has at least the strength of a lieutenant general of the headquarters. He is also very good at kendo. Caesar estimates that he is not far from becoming a great swordsman.

The purpose of Caesar's visit this time is to see if he can subdue this boy.

As for Cass and Hardaway, one is too stupid and the other is too old, neither is worthy of Caesar's efforts.

Of course, if that boy refuses Caesar, then Caesar doesn't mind turning him into his test subject. Anyway, the more test materials the better.
