Chapter 66 The 5.5th floor of the discovered advancing city!
Outside the island, the arrival of the dog-headed warship had already been discovered by Major General Irvine, who immediately walked alone on moon steps to pay homage to Lieutenant General Garp.
At this time, he was standing next to Major General Bogart, listening to the latter's explanation of Dorag's situation with a look of astonishment on his face. Suddenly, he raised his head and looked at the sky on the island.
"Has the power of the hurricane fruit awakened?"
"Oh my God, didn't I just awaken the Overlord Color and Haki before?"
It's interesting to say that Major General Irvine and Major General Bogart have the same military rank, but the scope of his domineering power cannot sense Sabak City at all, while the latter seems to be doing it easily.
"Yes, although I have heard that the awakening of Devil Fruit abilities has nothing to do with strength and depends entirely on the so-called chance, but it is really amazing that Major General Dorag has awakened in just over a year."
In such a situation, even Bogart, who has always been taciturn, was amazed. Then he turned his eyes to Garp in front of him and said with a smile: "Should I say that I am worthy of being your son?"
After hearing this, Garp shook his head and said: "The awakening of the Devil Fruit is indeed unexpected, but that is not the key. You cannot defeat the 'Slave King' with this."
"What do you mean..." Major General Ivan asked in confusion.
"The key is that the kid's heart is changing!"
Garp clasped his hands on his chest and continued to speak while feeling the change in Dorag's domineering power.
"Before, this kid was filled with distress, anger, resentment, hesitation, and struggle because of the Celestial Dragons' trash and all kinds of darkness. In addition, his rebellion plan was intercepted on the spot."
"To be honest, if he continues like this, his domineering power will become weaker and weaker, and he may not even be able to use it any day, because his heart is no longer firm."
"Haqi comes from the power of the heart, and is also the power of will. Only with a strong enough will can you master haqi. At the same time, the firmness of your will and the strength of your heart determine the strength of your domineering force."
Major General Ivan's face turned pale when he heard the big man's first words, and he complained wildly in his heart, "What the hell? How can anyone scold the Tianlong people like this in person? Isn't this looking for death!"
But Major General Bogart beside him didn't care at all. Instead, he lowered his chin and said thoughtfully: "You mean that Major General Dorag's heart continues to grow stronger in battle. This is also the fundamental reason why he can 'resurrection' every time."
.”
"No!"
But Garp shook his head again and said: "The change in his heart only makes his domineering stronger and is the key to defeating powerful opponents, but it cannot make him persist until now."
"So?" Major General Bogart asked.
"The potential of the body."
Garp calmly uttered these five words.
"Although the power of domineering energy originates from the heart, in the final analysis it is also the materialization of the heart. Power is fundamentally material, which is often referred to as physical strength and vitality."
"This kid Dorag has received my 'special love training' since he was a child. Returning life has become instinctive when he was ten years old."
"Up to now, his level of control over his body far exceeds that of most life return practitioners. Even you, Bogart, and with enough life force accumulated in his body, this is the power that supports him to get up again and again.
!”
After listening, Major General Bogart fell silent again, raised his eyes and continued to watch the duel between the hurricane and the sandstorm. Major General Irvine next to him also understood, looking like he suddenly understood.
"So it is the physical strength that is different from ordinary people that gives time for the continuous improvement of domineering force. Major General Dolag is going to defeat King Taklama, both of which are indispensable!"
Garp nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, it doesn't matter whether it's the domineering look or the awakening of abilities. These just look majestic and spectacular."
"Even if he becomes a natural ability user, in the final analysis, the boy's strongest point is the physical skills I taught him since childhood. This is also the difference between him and Sakaski and others."
Then I saw the naval hero, grinning proudly and saying: "Just wait and see, this battle will take another day at most, or even half a day to decide the winner, because Dorag can still hold on for two days.
That 'slave king' can't do it."
But there were still words in his heart that he had not yet spoken.
This battle will become the most important battle in Dolag's life. Defeating the 'slave king' King Taklama with his own hands and saving hundreds of thousands of innocent slaves will be enough to clear away the negative emotions in his heart and stabilize his own justice.
heart.
In terms of strength, after this battle, it is equal to or even slightly better than Sakaski and Porusalino. As for Kuzan, it is still a little behind.
This made Garp consider whether Dorag should be given the title of a backup general.
However, this idea was immediately dismissed by him as soon as it appeared.
Firstly, there were only three positions for generals, and he liked Kuzan quite a lot. Secondly, he felt that Dorag, like himself, would not be willing to be a general, wiping the butts of the Celestial Dragons' trash.
Although I heard that the Five Old Stars issued an order prohibiting the Celestial Dragons from leaving Mariejoia without permission, who can guarantee that there will be no accidents, or that the ban will be lifted one day?
"Well, it seems like this brat will be a lieutenant general for the rest of his life just like me~~"
At this moment, a sailor ran over quickly, saluted first, and then loudly reported: "Report to Lieutenant General Garp, the marshal orders you to return to Marineland immediately. There are important tasks that need to be performed!"
"oh?"
Garp turned around and raised his eyebrows, while Major General Bogart on the side was thinking about what could happen, because it was rare for the marshal to personally give the order.
Generally speaking, the generals of the Warring States Period would give notice in the form of 'discussing/cursing'.
The most recent mission he remembered was the one he went to the South China Sea to capture the Pirate King Roger last year.
...
The Grand Line, the Undersea Prison, advancing into the city, Magellan, now the deputy director, followed Director Columbus, and was currently on an ordinary floor.
The reason why it is said to be unremarkable is because this place does not have the sword grass of the Red Lotus Hell, nor the high temperature and cold of the Scorching Hell and the Extremely Cold Hell.
There was nothing, just an ordinary dark space.
But now there is a group of staff who call themselves the Construction Department and are recording the dimensional data of various places with tape measures. It is said that they are going to build some kind of research institute here.
"This... between the fifth and sixth floors, there is such a big place, and we didn't know it?" Magellan looked around in disbelief.
Director Columbus smiled bitterly and said: "I never thought that if CIPHER POL hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known until the day I retired that there would be a so-called five-point-five floor in the city where I have lived all my life."
Not far away, Colson, the senior director of the Administration Department, was accompanied by a scientific researcher in a white coat to inspect the surrounding situation.
"Professor Fritz, after the scientific force is reorganized, the Institute of Biochemistry will be located here. From now on, this will be the place for research, testing, and storage of all biochemical-related materials and products."
"If human experiments are needed for research, you can apply to the director here to provide criminal materials. Similarly, if there is a problem of leakage of biological and chemical weapons, please ask them for help as soon as possible. I believe Deputy Director Magellan will handle it well.
Yes, he is a superhuman Poison Fruit ability user."
As Colson spoke, he pointed in the direction of Magellan. Professor Fritz nodded excitedly, one by one.
In his opinion, this place is simply the best secret research base. He really can't think of a safer, more secretive place with more human body materials than here.
"Also, the next first task of the Institute of Biochemistry is to develop an effective method to solve platinum lead disease in a biochemical way. You will be able to see the information related to platinum lead disease later. As for the patients, wait here
After the construction of the facilities is completed, they will be delivered one after another."
"Master, what is platinum-lead disease?"
Just when Professor Fritz was about to say something, a boy nearby who looked a little too excited came over and asked curiously.
I saw that this man had a childish face, but he was nearly two meters tall, had thick long hair shawl, and even had a pair of horns on his head. He did not look like a normal human being.
Professor Fritz looked helplessly at his fourteen-year-old student, but this boy's talent was really outstanding, and he actually doted on him very much.
