One Piece: Under the Throne

Leo's confidence increased greatly after deciphering the energy rune in just half a year. In the next year, he continued to devote all his energy to deciphering the historical text.

During this year, he lived in seclusion and completely faded from the attention of the world. Instead, the reputation of the Mobile Life Rescue Team became more and more famous. Now, in addition to Leo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Holy Sword Saint Alfu, the Kung Fu Fishman Will, the Runaway Poster Girl Gloria, and the World Songstress Gloria are all becoming famous, which makes everyone more aware of the strength of this team.

Leo did not waste time and after unremitting efforts he finally cracked all the historical texts he had collected. Now Leo has mastered the rune technology of four huge kingdoms, namely teleportation, energy, command and shrinking runes.

The teleportation rune was obtained from O'Hara, and Leo has already used it on the battle mecha to recover the floating cannon.

The energy rune was obtained from the historical text that records the information about Pluto in Alabasta. This was also the rune that surprised Leo the most. The energy rune has the effect of storing energy and amplifying energy output. It covers a very wide range, including electrical energy, thermal energy, light energy, kinetic energy, magnetic energy, and even vibration and elasticity. The most direct application enhancement is that Leo feels that his laser cannon has become thicker and bigger.

The third rune is the historical text on Sky Island that records the information about Aquaman. This is a rune that affects sound. After repeated tests by Leo, it turns out to be a double-sided rune. When sound passes through the back side, it can amplify the sound like a loudspeaker, and it can also allow the listener to subconsciously identify with it. When sound passes through the front side, the listener can understand what the other party means, acting as a translator. Leo calls this rune the command rune.

The last piece was obtained by Leo from the Prime Minister's treasury. After putting it away for so long, he finally remembered to crack it. The function of this rune is very simple. Carving the rune on an object and charging energy into it can shrink the object. Carving one rune can shrink it 10 times, and carving two runes can shrink it 100 times. As the volume is reduced, the weight is also relatively reduced.

Now that he has mastered four runes, Leo has also tried to use them in combination. For example, the command rune plus the shrink rune can achieve the effect of whispering, which can change a person's mind without knowing it. The disadvantage is that it requires repeated nagging. Leo once asked the prime minister to try it, but Leo couldn't stand it before the target was controlled.

The command rune plus the energy rune can be made into a sonic trap. Shouting at the command rune will store the noise in the energy rune, and then activating it at the appropriate moment will make the stored sound waves explode at the same time. The power is comparable to Charlotte Linlin's terrifying howl.

However, the effects of these combinations are harmful to both the enemy and oneself, and Leo can only sigh in vain while guarding the treasure mountain.

As for the fact that energy plus teleportation can increase the teleportation distance, and shrinking and adding energy can make weapons that harm people, etc., they cannot be applied to actual combat at present. The combination runes still require a lot of time to try, so Leo had to give up for now.

Looking at the four runes in front of him, Leo was thoughtful. If the three new rune technologies could be applied to the combat mecha, the combat effectiveness would definitely be greatly improved. Therefore, Leo could only continue to lock himself in the laboratory. Except for occasionally dealing with the orders of the World Government, he completely handed over the task of managing the ship to Afu.

In order to speed up the research, Dr. Assie, who was traveling around the world with his daughter, was specially called in.

"Boss, what are you doing this time? Life is not only about science and research, but also about wine and beauties. You are so young, you should enjoy your life."

Leo looked at Asier who had become fat as a ball and said, "Hey, hey, hey, you have to be so exaggerated, Doctor, are you letting yourself go? Look at your belly, you can't even see the belt that's tightening around your waist."

Leo patted Asier's belly and made a DuangDuang sound: "I asked you to come here this time to help me study how to strengthen the combat mecha. This is an epoch-making invention. Don't you want to leave your name in history?"

Asie shook his chin and shook his head in refusal: "Not at all. You were right to ask me to remain anonymous. Over the years, I have seen how overbearing and greedy the World Government is. Anyway, I am using a pseudonym, and leaving a name in history has no appeal to me at all."

Leo suddenly put on an indifferent expression: "Oh~ Really? If you don't help me, I will hand you over to the World Government in exchange for credit."

"Nani? Leo you are such a jerk."

Dr. Asier had no choice but to join the research team, and Flowing Life took Olga on a journey of traveling around.

So a door separated two worlds, with clanging sounds inside and laughter outside.

Another year passed, and Leo and Asier finally stepped out of the laboratory. After countless arguments, the two finally applied all the rune technology to the combat mecha and completed the combat mecha type II.

Asie looked at the red, blue and white mecha with satisfaction. The new mecha had wings compared to the old one. "Leo, the new mecha is really great, especially the wings on the back. It fits your title of Water Angel."

Leo stepped on the ladder and wrote FREEDOM on the shoulder of the new mecha. The new mecha was named "Freedom". His friends liked this name very much and they thought it was in line with the team concept. Only Leo himself knew that this name carried precious memories of his previous life.

As for why he didn't write GUNDAM, it was because the size of the mecha was designed completely according to Leo's body shape. The overall height was only over 2 meters, and it looked like a large figure. It was still far from the Gundam in his mind.

Leo also solved the problem of carrying it around. The new FREEDOM mecha is made of memory metal material throughout the body, and two halves of a shrinking rune are engraved on the left and right forearms of both hands. After aligning the runes to form a shrinking rune, the mecha can be shrunk 100 times and can be carried around.

The shrinking rune also affects the weapon system. Originally, only three missiles could be stored in each leg armor. After using the shrinking rune, the missile capacity was directly expanded to one hundred.

This amount of ammunition can directly support Rio in fighting a large-scale war. Even the most advanced warships in the navy cannot withstand two missiles.

Energy runes were also used to strengthen the floating cannons and laser cannons. Pluto was able to destroy an island with one shot. The runes cracked from this historical text could greatly enhance the power of laser weapons. When energy passed through the runes, it could achieve the effect of amplifying the power.

Although a charged laser cannon cannot destroy an island in one shot, its power is still quite terrifying. When Leo was experimenting on an uninhabited island, a single shot from the laser cannon at its maximum power could raze an area of ​​two square kilometers to the ground. Even a floating cannon that mainly relies on intensive firepower could destroy a warship with two shots.

Why do you always use warships as the unit of measurement? You accidentally exposed your ambition.

This simply pushes Leo's firepower to another level. Even without using the ability of the fruit, Leo is confident that he can destroy a naval fleet of the size of the Demon Slayer Order in an instant.

Finally, there is the command rune, which is mainly used by the prime minister. The sage fruit and the command rune are a perfect match. The command rune can amplify the power of the prime minister's words, and even ordinary words can briefly affect the enemy. For example, if the prime minister shouts "idiot" to the enemy, some enemies with low intelligence will be stunned for a few seconds. Leo specially found a giant sea king to do the experiment, and the effect was very good. While the sea king was stunned and motionless, Leo solved the lunch problem with two lasers.

Leo looked up and down admiring the results of the work. This year was definitely not wasted. The combat mechas were thoroughly strengthened. The first generation of mechas were equivalent to copycat versions made by hand, while the second generation of mechas were made by Tony Stark himself.

After completing the work of transforming the mecha, Dr. Asier took Olga and said goodbye to everyone, and the Poseidon continued its journey.

Leo stroked FREEDOM and was eager to try. He had faded out of people's sight for two years. It was time to announce his return with a vigorous war.

But destroying one or two pirate groups is of no help at all, because where can we find the sea areas where pirates roam in large numbers?

Leo thought about it for a long time but still had no idea, so he had to ask professionals for help.

Bulu Bulu, Kaga

"Hey! Uncle Garp, long time no see."

"Leo? You disappeared for a long time. If there hadn't been news of the Poseidon Soldier appearing, I would have thought you were killed."

Leo really didn't like chatting with old man Garp. He was so venomous: "Uncle Garp, stop joking. There aren't many people in this world who can kill me."

"Don't be complacent, kid. Many new pirate groups want to step on the Seven Warlords to get to the top. Don't let yourself be defeated by an unknown nobody. When the time comes, the World Government will completely wipe you out for the sake of face."

"Those bastards from the World Government are really capable of doing this. Damn, I have to be careful."

"Hahahaha, I love to hear that. Tell me what you want to talk to me about."

"Haha, it's been two years since we last had any activities. I wanted to ask you where there are more pirates recently."

Garp became interested when he heard that Leo was going to destroy the pirates: "Oh? Are you going to take action? I really want to see your progress. Is it a sea area with many pirates? Why don't you go to the entrance of Upside Down Mountain and block it."

Leo was speechless. Was he going to compete with Crocodile for business? Besides, it would be completely ineffective to use a rookie who had just come out of the Four Seas to establish his authority. "No, no, that would be boring. Is there anyone stronger?"

Garp rubbed his chin and said, "Why don't you go to the New World and take a look? Whitebeard, Big Mom, and Kaido have been making quite a fuss lately. The first two are already the emperors of the sea, and now Kaido is also vying for this position. There are battles between the three parties every day, and there are many strong people there."

"Fuck, do you want me to die? If I intervene in the war between those three monsters, I'm afraid there won't be anything left. Is there a pirate group that is strong and famous? The more attention it gets, the better."

"Oh! You want to become famous? If so, then go to Shampoodi. This year's supernovas will be arriving in Shampoodi soon. If you have the ability, you can kill them all."

This suggestion made Leo's eyes light up. Yes, although pirates are hated by people, they are the most talked about topic in the Age of Discovery. From the fact that civilians came up with this supernova ranking, it can be seen that many people still like to watch the show.

After hanging up the phone, Leo became active: "Guys, turn the rudder and head to Shampoo Land. I want to be this year's supernova killer."
