From Pirates to Sweeping the Worlds

"Hmph! As the saying goes, you can't judge a person by his appearance. Who knows what evil thoughts he has in mind?" Xia Jieren said unhappily.

Seeing this, Kerrigan spread her hands and stopped persuading.

Although he was concerned about his own Hancock, Xia Jieren had not forgotten the main business, "Kerrigan, get the 'Green Blood' related technology at all costs."

"In the meantime, pay close attention to the Parahuman Devil Fruit users in the ocean, and try to get their blood."

"Yes!" Kerrigan agreed and went down to carry out the order.

Xia Jieren contacted Hancock.

【Nine Snake Island】.

Hancock leaned lazily on the throne, enduring the chattering of her mother-in-law in her ears.

"Don't bother me with trivial matters like material distribution. I'll leave everything to you." Hancock waved his hand impatiently.

"Snake Queen! What's your attitude? You are the king of Amazon Lily, be serious." The mother-in-law jumped up and down.

"Humph!" Hancock snorted disdainfully, "I don't need you to remind me."

Sandasonia and Marigrude were sandwiched between the two, trying to persuade them in a friendly manner.

Suddenly, a pleasant bell rang.

Samero used his tail to roll up the [Infinite Machine] beside him and handed it to Hancock.

After seeing the caller ID, Hancock took the phone in surprise.

The next second, her figure disappeared without a trace.

At this time, she had already arrived at the dormitory.

After the call was connected, Hancock's cheerful and pleasant voice came: "Master Jieren, you called me. I'm so happy."

Seeing Hancock's delicate face, Xia Jieren's lips curled up.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while before Xia Jieren got to the point: "Hancock, has the [World Government] or the Navy Headquarters done anything strange to you, such as drawing your blood?"

"No!" Hancock was confused by the question.

Hearing this, Xia Jieren let out a long sigh.

Seeing Hancock's puzzled look, Xia Jieren briefly explained Vegapunk's "Seraph" plan.

After hearing this, Hancock couldn't help but frown and said angrily, "Damn it! I knew the [World Government] had evil intentions and actually wanted to turn me into a weapon of war."

"Unforgivable! Unforgivable!!"

"Don't worry! I won't let that happen." Xia Jieren said seriously.

"Lord Jieren, I believe you!" Hancock smiled, and in an instant her face was as beautiful as a hundred flowers blooming.

Then, she changed the subject and said with a hint of worry, "If... the [World Government] offers forced conscription or the position of [Seven Warlords of the Sea] as a condition, I... don't know how to refuse."

Xia Jieren thought so too, and then he looked at Kerrigan for help.

Kerrigan understood immediately. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Master! You can arrange for Hancock to enter the [Evolution Chamber] again. I can do something inside her body. Once the blood leaves the body, it will lose its activity."

"It won't have any impact on Hancock!" Xia Jieren said worriedly.

Kerrigan rolled her eyes and gave Xia Jieren a look, telling him to slowly understand it.

Coming back to his senses, Xia Jieren smiled awkwardly.

After coughing twice to hide his embarrassment, Xia Jieren looked at Hancock and said with a smile: "If you have time recently, come to the [Netherlands Kingdom], I have a solution."

"Okay! I'll be there right away!" Hancock said happily.

Xia Jieren was about to say, "Don't be so anxious."

The next second, Hancock hung up the call.

Xia Jieren: ...

After the call ended, Hancock rushed to the palace hall and said quickly: "I have important matters to attend to in the [Netherlands Kingdom] immediately. I will leave the rest to you."

After saying this, without waiting for anyone to react, Hancock disappeared instantly.

After a while, Hancock came to the [Airship Bug] and walked straight in.

[Airship Bug] slowly rose into the air under the gaze of many Nine Snake Warriors.

Inside the palace hall.

The mother-in-law and the two sisters looked at each other.

"Damn it! How many times has this happened? Hancock is so irresponsible." The roar of the grandmother resounded throughout the palace.

Everyone who heard it shrank their necks.

Sandasonia and Marigrude both smiled bitterly while comforting their mother-in-law, fearing that she would get sick from anger.

......

After solving the hidden danger of Hancock being cloned, Xia Jieren received some good news.

Through the powerful intelligence network of [Fire Eyes and Golden Pupils], the locations of dozens of [Paradox Devil Fruit] users have been identified.

At the same time, he also obtained several bloodline factors of the [Paradox Devil Fruit].

[Explosion Fruit], [Wax-Wax Fruit], [Thorn Fruit], [Imitation Fruit], [Cut-Cut Fruit]...

Coincidentally, these senior agents of the Baroque Works in the original work have now joined the [Hunter Guild] and become glorious bounty hunters.

As for the Baroque Workshop, it never existed.

After all, Crocodile had been attracted to the [Wano Country] by the news about Pluto released by Xia Jieren.

At this moment, Crocodile is fighting wits and courage with the [Beast Pirates], no...to be more precise, he is being chased by them.

In this regard, Xia Jieren went in with pure interest to watch the fun.

Back to the topic, now that the former senior agents of Baroque Works have joined the [Hunter Guild], it will be easy.

Xia Jieren directly posted a designated bounty mission in the [Hunter's Guild] at a high price.

Collect the blood of users with [Paradox Devil Fruit] abilities to assist in research.

The former senior agents of Baroque Works readily agreed.

Why not take the free money? It's just a matter of losing some blood.

This is nothing.

Xia Jieren's plan went very smoothly.

Whether it is the [Explosion Fruit], [Cut Fruit], or [Thorne Fruit], they all have a huge effect on the Zerg.

[Explosive Fruit] can allow the Zerg unit's attacks to be attached with explosive sails.

[Light and Heavy Fruit] can reduce the weight of Zerg units, making them move faster.

[Zhanzhan Fruit] can provide Zerg units with unparalleled attack power.

[Fruit of Thorns] can provide excellent defense for Zerg units.

In addition to these [Devil Fruits], Xia Jieren also has many practical [Metahuman Devil Fruits] under his command.

For example: [Swallow Fruit] can be used to improve the digestion capacity of Zerg units.

And many more.

However, what Xia Jieren wanted most was Whitebeard's [Tremor-Tremor Fruit] and Vegapunk's [Brain-Brain Fruit]'s bloodline factor.

At the moment, it seems unlikely.

Xia Jieren was already getting impatient.

He would check on the progress of acquiring the "green blood" technology every few days.
