Starting from Pirates, Myriad Worlds Simulation
Chapter 720 Wood’s reward amount skyrockets again
Well, after all, I know that technology is the primary productive force.
Hearing what Wood said casually, Bega Punk's eyes suddenly lit up again.
Then he quickly asked: Technology is the primary productive force? It's a very appropriate description. Is this also a saying passed down from that ancient kingdom?
Saint Sata of the Five Old Stars had previously said that Wood might be a remnant of that ancient kingdom, or even a descendant of Joyboy.
Vegapunk was still skeptical about this before, but now his credibility on this point is a little higher.
Because compared with most of the world, Wood's ideas are quite advanced, and his remarks also make people feel bright.
The country that disappeared 800 years ago had a high degree of civilization and technology. If Wood was a remnant or successor of that ancient kingdom, then it would not be so strange to say those words before.
Mr. Wood took such great risks to go to Egghead to save me this time. I think it wasn't just for the bears, right?
Your purpose must also be for me, right? Do you want me to work for you or work for you through the kindness of rescuing me?
Seeing that Wood was more interesting than he thought, Vegapunk did not choose to beat around the bush, but straight to the point.
I don't deny that my main purpose is indeed this, but saying that I want you to sacrifice your life for me is really a bit much.
I do want you to work for me, and I will pay you accordingly.
Netherworld Island will provide you with research funds and various resources. Even if it is said to be a part-time job, you can actually understand it as a cooperative relationship.
If it is a project you don’t want to study, you have the right to refuse my request, and you can choose to leave at any time even if you no longer intend to do it.
Vegapunk, who had no intention of refusing originally, was stunned on the spot when he heard the conditions mentioned by Wood at this moment.
Originally, he thought that Wood would put him under house arrest and let him work hard to develop weapons to fight against the next world government.
But I never expected that the conditions given by Wood would be so generous!
In the past, whether in the MADS organization sponsored by Field or in the World Government's Navy Special Science Class, although Vegapunk could conduct research, he did not have much autonomy at all.
But according to the conditions Wood just gave, this is exactly his dream working environment.
You don’t have to worry about funds and resources. You can refuse research that you hate and concentrate on doing what you like. There are even no restrictions and you can leave whenever you want!
Are all the conditions you mentioned true?
Because the conditions given by Wood were so good, Vegapunk reconfirmed with a trembling tone at this moment.
Of course it's true. Compared to 800 years ago, the world is quite backward, isn't it?
There is no shortage of guys with only fists in this sea, but what is missing now are those with smart heads.
Besides, only scientists who follow their own whims and have all kinds of fantastic ideas can be considered true scientists, right?
In the end, Vegapunk also agreed to join Dark Island. Strictly speaking, this was the first cadre successfully recruited because of Wood's charisma.
Like other people on Dark Island, Russ and the others were dragged into the water by Wood, and Robin was desperate at first.
Perona, Caesar, and Sugar completely succumbed to Wood's force.
Aokiji was driven by the general trend. Only the current Bega Punk was convinced by Wood's Mouth Escape.
Vegapunk and Xiong have been rescued. Whether it is the mission of the Revolutionary Army or Wood's own purpose, this time it has been successfully completed.
Both Bonnie and Vegapunk planned to join the Dark Island, while Betty and Kella also chose to return to the Revolutionary Army.
As for the Straw Hats, because they helped Wood this time, Wood originally planned to invite them to the Dark Island as guests.
Unexpectedly, he was rejected by Luffy in the end, and said that they would use their own abilities to sail to the waters of Dark Island in the near future.
That's right, the location of Dark Island is also in the second half of the Grand Route. According to the current route of the Straw Hats, they only need to pass a few more islands to reach the sea area where Dark Island is located.
Wood didn't say much about Luffy's persistence, so he quickly returned with Vegapunk and the others alone.
Bega Punk, who joined the Dark Island, was directly appointed as a senior cadre, responsible for improving the capabilities of the God Agent and building some defense projects on the Dark Island.
The other people on the island were quite calm about Bonnie and the long-headed scientist brought back by the captain, but Caesar was quite unhappy.
Because as soon as Vegapunk arrived, his identity as the chief scientist of Dark Island was instantly lost, and he was once again reduced to the second in command.
Captain, why can that guy from Vegapunk become a senior cadre as soon as he joins us?
You must know that I was promoted from a grassroots cadre to the current senior cadre after making a lot of contributions!
And that guy from Vegapunk is actually not that great. What he can do, I, Caesar, can also do. Why should we let him join us?
If you want to say who Caesar hates the most in this world, then Vegapunk is definitely at the top of the list.
So when Wood announced that Vegapunk would join them from today and engage in scientific research and development on the island like himself, Caesar was naturally dissatisfied.
Caesar, if I remember correctly, you were a prisoner at the beginning, right?
Have you forgotten about planning a plot with that guy Doflamingo? Being able to make you a senior official on the island should be considered a magnanimous thing on my part.
By the way, have I been so good to you that you now dare to question my decision?
Wood is quite clear about Caesar's character. There is no doubt that this guy is a bully and shy of the strong. Although his loyalty is worrying, it is undeniable that this guy is indeed a talent and has helped the island a lot.
Therefore, considering the other party's feelings, Wood did not let Caesar attack Vegapunk, but let them each study their own.
Anyway, with his current financial resources, he can afford to support a scientist, and he can also afford to support a group of scientists.
On the second day after returning to Dark Island, Morgans, the president of World News, left Wood's office in a swaggering manner, with a rather excited expression on his face before leaving.
“Is it really okay to let Morgans report such news?
Next, the world government will probably really regard us as the biggest thorn in its side, right?
Robin, who was holding a pile of documents in his hands and standing behind Wood with a perfect secretary posture, couldn't help but say with a worried look on his face after watching Morgans walk out of the room.
“Whether those things are said or not, the world government already regards us as its biggest enemy.
Even if the truth is made public, maybe we can find more similar people and let them help us share the firepower.
Wood specifically called Morgans here, naturally hoping that he would spread some information to the entire sea through newspapers.
The information he wanted Morgans to report was a part of history that had been disappeared for a hundred years from Vegapunk.
When he heard Wood's dictation, Morgans had been in an extremely excited state.
As the president of a news agency, Morgans also likes breaking news out of professional habit.
There is no doubt that the news Wood gave him this time was the most explosive news he had heard in the past few decades.
The history of One Hundred Years of Disappearance probably started after the execution of the Pirate King... No, even the news of the execution of the Pirate King is far less exciting than this news!
If it were in the past, even if he knew such shocking news, Morgans would naturally not dare to publish it in the newspaper.
Although it is true that he is one of the Six Kings of the underground world, such an identity means nothing in front of a behemoth like the World Government.
But since the incident on Cake Island, his current identity, Morgans, is no longer the same.
Although he is still the apparent president of World News, the boss behind the scenes has been replaced.
His new master, Wood, had killed one of the Five Old Stars, the Holy City of Saturn Sata, and had almost completely offended the World Government to death, so naturally he no longer had to have any scruples.
Even if the sky falls, there are still tall people who can hold it up. Morgans is not a fool, on the contrary, he is quite smart.
As the president of the World News Agency, he is the only one who controls the information dissemination channels in the entire sea. He is the only one who can control and direct the news birds, so his status is transcendent.
As long as he is still valuable, Wood will not let anything happen to him, because once he dies, Wood will lose his only channel of public opinion.
On the contrary, if Wood is refused to publish these news, then he will lose his only use value. Wood will not let his disobedient subordinates continue to survive.
What? Are you saying that doing this will offend the world government and even lead to death?
But Morgans just wanted to say that as early as on Cake Island, CP0 had already commanded the Seraph to kill him.
The current world government has gone completely crazy, and the situation in the sea has gradually begun to become turbulent. The current world government has also begun to act like a mad dog, biting anyone it catches.
Vegapunk also cooperated with the World Government before, and now the consequences are seen.
At least now, in Morgans' view, Wood is somewhat more humane than the world government that is moody and may sacrifice them at any time.
Moreover, the strength of Netherworld Island is getting stronger and stronger now. At least in Morgans' view, Netherworld Island has the initial power to compete with the World Government.
If this team fails, then he will naturally die, but if Wood really succeeds in overthrowing the world government in the end, then he, Morgans, might also be the world aristocrat of the new world in the future.
Morgans' work efficiency was quite fast. Millions of newspapers were printed in just one day and sent to all parts of the world by Newsbird.
Due to Wood's wealth, this issue of the newspaper was provided free of charge to the outside world. The purpose was to let more people know the so-called truth.
Originally, a newspaper cost 100 berries, and the consumption of millions of newspapers was only a few hundred million berries. For Wood like this, it was nothing at all.
And when all these newspapers were spread into the hands of everyone around the world, everyone who saw the news in this newspaper experienced a wave of pupil earthquakes.
The same is true for them, including the Straw Hats who experienced the battle at Egghead.
After all, the history of disappearance for a hundred years that Vegapunk learned was only explained to Wood after arriving at Dark Island.
The world government is the real evil. They destroy the freedom and laughter that once existed. 』
The world's nobles, the Celestial Dragons, are not the ancient creators at all. They are the bloodline of predators. They cover up their history just to consolidate their dominance. 』
Headlines such as these appeared in newspapers, which made the world's nobles in the Holy Land Mariejoia furious, and also made the Five Old Stars, who were now only four, extremely angry.
They really didn't expect that things would turn into such a bad situation. The truth they tried so hard to cover up was now revealed like a scar in front of everyone.
Wulaoxing did not want to kill anyone who saw this newspaper, but unfortunately the newspaper was distributed so fast that they were unable to stop it.
That bastard Morgans has now chosen a hidden position and completely disappeared.
Originally, it would have been a good idea to hunt down the news birds that delivered newspapers, but Morgans seemed to have anticipated this, so this time the newspapers were delivered late at night.
Because they don't need money, Newsbirds always drop a newspaper and leave when they encounter a ship or an island.
At the beginning, because the news published in the newspapers was so shocking, most people were still skeptical about it.
But the subsequent operations of the World Government directly confirmed the authenticity of the news in the newspaper.
Not long after the last time the ancient weapon Wood was put on a bounty, the amount of his bounty was actually increased again.
And this time, the increase is not just a little bit, but directly increased from the original 6.6 billion berries to 10 billion berries!
This is a bounty of 10 billion berries. You must know that the surgery fruit that once made people immortal is only worth 5 billion berries!
Now Wood's head can be exchanged for two chances of eternal life!
If Chopper is currently worth 100 Berry, can Wood exchange it for 100 million Chopper?
Wood's original bounty of 6.6 billion berries was already extremely high, and it would be very difficult to raise it again. What's more, it skyrocketed to 10 billion berries in such a short period of time. To say that he didn't do anything amazing, he definitely didn't do anything. People believe.
That is to say, what the newspaper said is that the possibility of Saint Saturn, one of the five most powerful stars in the world government, being killed by Wood is very likely true, which is why his bounty has soared so much in one breath.
