Chapter 116

"K, Master Crocodile, these are the flowers I picked. I...wuwuwuwu."

It's not easy to find a flower in the desert, and she doesn't have money to buy flowers from a flower shop. I accidentally picked one today, and when I was feeling lucky, I saw Crocodile on the street.

Her parents were saved by the Sand Crocodile during the pirate invasion some time ago, so the first time she saw him, the little girl knew why she was so lucky to pick this one.

Unexpectedly, his body acted faster than his brain and ran directly to Crocodile. He didn't organize his words well, so he had to simply give a flower and leave.

But Lao Shana's height of 2.5 meters put too much pressure on the little girl at close range. The hunched head, the scars on his face, the cigar at the corner of his mouth, and the dark eyes all showed that I am a ruthless person, don't mess with me.

The person who designed Lao Sha's appearance was also because his appearance seemed a bit far from a good person, so he arranged for him to be aloof.

Before the little girl could finish her words, she began to cry nervously and a little fearfully, which made Lao Sha very irritable. Feeling that everyone around him was looking at him, he felt a little numb.

Just walk away? No, this is inconsistent with the character. Then we can only take it over and end this farce as soon as possible. This is the reason why I don't want to be a good person. If I become a good person, I will have more worries and will have flaws.

This kind of hypocrisy can be left to Noah who just left. That kind of person has that kind of hypocrisy from head to toe, and is most suitable for such occasions.

He slowly bent down, took the flower from the hand of the still crying girl, and put it in his coat pocket. Go around her and continue walking back. Not to mention, after adding flowers, it smells a bit like the Godfather, although Lao Sha doesn't think so.

He didn't like people looking at him with hope and longing. He is a pirate, and everyone should look at him with fear and fear. Even if he has been pretending to be a so-called national hero.

Back in the stronghold of Rainland, Daz Bonis was practicing crazily. Ever since he was knocked out instantly by Noah, he has started to practice endlessly. Next time, next time, he will see this man again. He made sure to surprise Noah.

While he was exercising, Daz Bonis saw the boss coming in outside the door.

Well, the boss’s appearance today is slightly different from usual. Carrying a box in your hand and flowers on your chest? At first glance, this style seems a bit unique and boss-like.

Feeling the surprised look in his number one brother's eyes, Lao Sha was also a little unnatural.

"Ahem, this box of books was left here by that bastard Noah. Mr. 1, practice well. When I see that guy again next time, I will take revenge!"

"Okay, BOSS!"

A murderous reply was his attitude. When it comes to revenge, Daz Bones gets excited. Nothing else is more important than washing away one's own shame.

Lao Shashi calmly returned to his room, first took off the flower on his chest, and then turned it into dust with the wind. He doesn't need such weak things.

Open the book box given by Noah, the clues inside are more important. He still equates the knowledge in books with the clues to find Pluto. Such a confidential matter cannot be analyzed by my subordinates, so I can only do it myself.

but……

Are there really clues to Pluto in books like "Changing the World Starts with Small Things (Revised Edition 1502 of the Ocean Calendar)", "On How to Connect the Sea", "Into Science", "One Hundred Thousand Whys on the Sea"?

Sand Crocodile sat in his CEO's office and fell into deep thought.

Chapter 253 Wasteland Black Box

When Noah returned to the South China Sea, he went directly to Bika. The doctor must have been waiting impatiently. The failure of the last experiment has always made him worried. Always inadvertently urging him to find the historical text and come back as soon as possible. In the desert, I often receive phone calls from doctors.

Every time he comes to Bika, Noah always feels like he is in a new place. The changes here are really changing with each passing day. These guys who are engaged in scientific research dare to install anything. The shape is often changed, and the sense of danger is increasing day by day.

By the way, what is the launch pad seen from a distance? Could it be some kind of unpredictable weapon system? This caliber is almost at the level of a space battleship. What would it be like to use this to hit Marie Joa?

How can you think like this? The weapons on Bika are all defensive weapons, so you can't think about it randomly.

The optical camouflage is also very interesting. After it is turned on, it really blends with the outside world to the naked eye. Although it's cool, it doesn't seem to be of much use. In this world, people who can reach such a high place are all masters among masters, and their level of knowledge, knowledge and color are extremely high.

This level can only confuse the naked eye, and only the Falcon Bell of Alabasta can't see it. Bell Sorry, just a small example.

After identifying himself through the communicator, a small opening was opened in the island's defense cover. Noah came to a place that looked like a lifting platform and landed on it.

Then there is a test. Voice, gait, irises, fingerprints, and even black technologies such as biomagnetic fields have been developed. Oh, that's right, Base Station Zero is located here, so it can be used flexibly.

After everything passed, Noah walked into the main laboratory. The doctor has been waiting for a long time.

"How about Noah, isn't Bika's new equipment very powerful?"

"It's quite powerful, but it's not very practical. Is such a rigorous test necessary? Does someone who knows Bika's location and has the ability to come up still need this?

"Didn't I hear you talk about imitation fruits and transparent fruits? There are all kinds of strange fruits in the sea, and there will always be one or two fruits that can sneak in. The equipment on Bika is so important now, and the protection work must be done well. That’s it.”

After listening to what the doctor said, Noah felt that he was right. He thought it was simple before. Base Station Zero and the Infinity Stones are the most important assets of the Revolutionary Army, as are the later products of the Tuntun Fruit. These three things will form the heart of technological research and development, and indeed one cannot be too careful.

"When this fruit-swallowing experiment is completed, I plan to move the research institute to the sea, and Bika will be hidden as an official secret weapon. At that time, only the advanced research and development team, maintenance team, and weapons will be left. The people at the defense console can just stay.

It is enough for other students to go back to normal teaching. Bika will not take on some overseas missions in the future. "

Now, the doctor has some talent in management. It is gratifying to learn how to allocate manpower and reduce risks.

"What do you mean by your look of relief? I have been here for so long, and I have watched Bika being built bit by bit. I don't want it to have any risks. The scientific research crystallization of Bika now can It is said to be the top level in the sea.

Even if Vegapunk comes, I will say the same thing. Although his wisdom is very high, his scientific research level is 500 years ahead of the world. But it is also subject to the oppression of the times. No matter how much you have an idea, it is useless without hardware to help you realize it.

But we have found the key to transcend the times! "

The doctor stared at the Tunton Fruit with burning eyes. It seemed that he had studied this fruit thoroughly. I don’t know how many scoldings those students received.

Seeing the doctor's expectant eyes, Noah didn't waste any time and directly released the historical text.

"I dug it out after eating sand in Alabasta for a week. I gave it to you, doctor."

The text above has been printed. Both copies were placed in the space and handed over to Robin for study after Bika's matter was resolved.

The doctor turned on a switch called rage almost as soon as the historical text landed. The kind and wise smile disappeared, and the eloquent conversation just now also disappeared. He directly transformed into a scientific research tyrant, blowing like a blower with his mouth.

During this period, many phrases had to be muted before they could be played. What kind of research and development environment is this that makes the doctor become like this? He is even more manic than during the first experiment.

After sighing, Noah still quietly hid aside. This old man is not easy to mess with now. Whoever provokes someone gets scolded.

"Where's Noah? Noah! You x-on:#￥, hurry up and sense what's going on inside! You#x-on:￥ # talk!"

I hurriedly helped with the experiment, but I didn't expect to be called out even after I hid aside. Didn’t I say last time that science is reproducibility and that it is the basic principle of natural science research. Scientists discover causal facts through controlled experiments that eliminate subjective factors, and then deduce universal laws.

Therefore, in theory, any successful scientific experiment should be able to be repeatedly tested among different research subjects. This is the objectivity of science.

Why don't you care about these scientific laws this time? Of course, Noah would not say it at this time. The doctor would really grab him by the collar and slap him twice.

"There is no problem this time. It feels like the frequency is right. Everything is normal in the history text. There is a reaction. The changes inside the Tuntun fruit are slightly different from before, but most of the reactions are similar to the previous two."

"Okay, you x-on:# come down quickly."

The humanoid sensor was driven off by the doctor, and he stood aside and watched the doctor perform another dazzling operation.

I can't understand anything else, but I can see the energy consumption. In a short period of time, the lights in the laboratory flickered on and off, and there was a buzzing sound outside. In Noah's view, the entire Bika dropped a certain distance, and the outer protective shield flickered, fearing that it would collapse.

"It's okay, it's just caused by too much energy being extracted from the infinite gems in a short period of time. No matter how powerful the historical text is, it only has a strong carrying capacity, and the output power cannot explode infinitely. For this moment, don't worry too much."

This statement is nothing more than a placebo and is of no use. In fact, the doctor is very worried. The energy absorbed by this Tuntun fruit is very huge, much more than the magnetic fruit. If it were not supported by the Thunder Fruit as its core, ordinary ability users would be sucked dry if they encountered it.

Thinking of this, the doctor felt lucky that the first one to fuse was the Thunder Fruit. Without it, nothing would be possible in the later stage. This is also a kind of luck.

Chapter 254 Habitual Fracture and System

After the influx of endless energy, the historical text of the center finally merged with the Tuntun Fruit.

Then it seemed as if a black hole appeared above Bika. The energy was no longer input, but was swallowed up and torn apart. Large swaths of blue light were captured. Noah stood next to the doctor like he did in the first experiment, ready to throw the doctor into space at any time.

If the old man is swallowed by the fruit experiment, it will be the most ridiculous scientific experiment in the history of One Piece. You can't just create an artifact and sacrifice your body for it. That would be too fantasy.

After a long, long time, the energy swallowing finally ended. There is only a solitary piece of historical text left on the spot without any change in form. There is no sense of danger for the time being.

It seems that after the superhuman fruit is fused, there will be no change in form.

This product is currently named Black Box, a name forced by Noah as a tribute.

The black box of Tuntun Fruit has been made, and Noah staying here will have no effect. Testing how to use that is a matter for the PhD. He won't be in the way here.

Open the protective cover, fall directly from the air, and go home.

Last time, he was very upset because of the text of the road sign, so he started free falling. Later he fell in love with this sport. Continuously falling, moving freely toward the bottomless bottom, it is very relaxing.

It wasn't until it was almost to the ground that it returned to its normal posture.

Back at home, Robin went to class, the other kids went to school, and the room was empty. Noah had nothing to do at this time, so he simply went to find Long to see if there was anything he could share.

For them, being lazy is really a luxury, and they should be grateful once or twice once in a while.

The office looked quite lively, and I heard someone banging on the table outside the door.

Knocking on the door, it was Jinbei who opened the door.

I walked in and saw, oh, Princess Otohime is back. There are Jinbei, Tiger, Lindbergh, Big Bear, and Dragon in the house.

I don’t seem to see anyone here who knows how to bang the table. Could it be Tiger? Of all the people here, he has the hottest temper. This guy has been a leader for so long, but he still can't hold back his anger. He probably needs Princess Otohime to persuade him.

After saying hello to everyone present, I casually found a seat and sat down. No matter what, as the beacon of the revolution, we can all participate in the activity.

"You guys go on, I just came here and I don't understand the situation yet."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit cold, Noah decided to start the conversation on his own, otherwise things would be difficult to discuss.

boom! boom! boom!

"I don't agree with this decision! Even if you are the biggest in the revolutionary army, I won't listen. This is a huge crisis for people's trust. People's hearts cannot be tested, Long!"

"Your Highness, please calm down. Your arms cannot support such a hard slap."

"It's okay, the big bear is still here. After you pick it up, just throw the injury to any sea beast."

Damn it, it’s the other way around. It was Princess Otohime who was banging the table, and Tiger was persuading. Also, Princess, what exactly have you been through? Why do you even know Big Bear’s methods so well?

Long remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Noah, on the other hand, was listening in. After 10 minutes of quarreling this time, and Jinbei explaining in a low voice beside him, he roughly understood what was going on.

It was still caused by the internal corruption incident last time. Previously, Noah contacted Princess Otohime in advance to come back early to help deal with this matter. Otohime also took this matter very seriously and hurried back.

By the time she came back, Noah had gone to Alabasta to hunt crocodiles and eat sand.

Princess Otohime was also very angry after learning the specific situation on the Resurrection Island. While everyone was throwing their lives and blood for the revolutionary cause, someone actually fell.

After accepting Long's appointment, he prepared to conduct some situation surveys on the existing cadres. But the problem arises here. Long waited for a week before going to see Princess Otohime, and found that the progress of the investigation was too slow, although the things that had been investigated were all solid evidence. But there are still so many things that have not yet been investigated.

This made Long very dissatisfied. After understanding Otohime's investigation methods, he realized that Otohime did not choose to directly enter other people's inner worlds to look for evidence. Instead, she would conduct an external investigation first, and after the evidence was conclusive, if the person was still unwilling to admit it, she would conduct psychic perception.

Because of this matter, the two people had more than one quarrel.

Long believes that extraordinary things must be done at extraordinary times. Now the revolutionary army's stall is so large that new members and newly appointed cadres appear every day. It's impossible to continue like this, it will put this place in a high-risk state at any time.

Princess Otohime believes that it is disrespectful to human nature to peek into other people's hearts at will. The revolutionary army's philosophy is more about taking an upright line. How can it do so without full confidence.

The two had a big conflict over this matter. Both ideas have support from others. Interestingly, Jinbei and Tiger fought on the side of the dragon. Since there is nothing wrong with Jinbei's identity, there is no need to hide it, he can just let others see it openly. Tiger thought the same way, and even thought Princess Otohime was a bit naive.

Ivankov and Daxiong sided with Princess Otohime. Ivankov is better able to understand the fragility and unbearable pain of the human heart because of the events in the Demon Kingdom. Daxiong is just a simple support, without any reason.

Because of this matter, the two sides refused to compromise. Princess Otohime broke her bones twice because she hit the table too hard. This cruelty left Long Du a bit speechless.

Things took a turn for the better when Noah came back. As the best speaker within the revolutionary army, his choice can basically determine the tone of how such things should be done in the future.

Everyone is paying attention to the light, which is holding its chin in thought.

"Actually, the key points of your conflict, such as human nature and trust, are not the focus. Rather, at this moment, what method should be used to quickly and effectively identify those corrupt personnel and dig deeper into their crimes.

At this time, we should not leave everything to one person. Although Princess Otohime's ability is very useful, if the ability fails or has an upper limit, it will be a burden to feel the hearts of others every time. .

So why don’t we recommend a formal inspection system? "

"system?"

Long and Princess Otohime's eyes lit up. Yes, a person's power is limited, and relying on the system is the way to go. All these days of arguing were in vain, it turns out this is the right way.

Chapter 255 Otohime’s Fierceness

“Yes, it’s the system.

Power without supervision will inevitably lead to corruption

First of all, we need to have an internal set of laws and regulations. The specific details can be discussed later, such as sentencing, accountability, and degree classification.

Second, we need a formal authority to oversee and delegate authority to this authority.

Finally, the division of responsibilities of regulatory agencies must also be clear. They only have law enforcement powers but no judicial powers. The final processing results are still left in the hands of most people.

Most of the staff are drawn from newcomers, and those who have no interest relationship are the best, regardless of race. After arriving, I asked Her Highness Otohime to conduct the test herself and select candidates for several groups.

Supervisory investigations in various departments must also be carried out forcefully, and the heads of task departments must not obstruct it. If there are too many problems in a department, the relevant responsible persons must also be held accountable.
