Chapter 49: Pull up the radish and bring out the mud
The island Ji Xing is currently on is called Shannon Island. It is an ordinary island in the New World. It is rich in spices and has unique food.
After Mariejoia hunted the Celestial Dragons to liberate the slaves and sent the rescued slaves out of the navy's encirclement, Ji Xing quietly went back and retrieved his knife and flying cloak, and then flew here dragging his injured body.
In the past half month, he has been wandering around this island, recovering from his injuries and paying attention to the aftermath of the night attack on Marie Joa, making himself familiar to everyone on the island.
Of course, the one who looked familiar was the world's greatest swordsman, Holo, who had taken off his disguise.
At the same time, we are also collecting some information.
This island is very close to Punk Hassad.
Punk Hassad will be called Ice and Fire Island in the future because the battle between Admiral Akainu and Admiral Aokiji took place there for ten days and ten nights, resulting in the island becoming a special environment that is half ice and snow and half lava hell.
However, it is still an ordinary island with singing birds and fragrant flowers. The residents of Shannon Island only think that it is an uninhabited island with many wild beasts. However, Ji Xing knows that it is a research base of the Navy, but it is secretly controlled by Doflamingo.
The artificial Devil Fruit Smile was researched and produced on this island. At the same time, experiments on human enlargement were still going on on the island.
As for the gigantic experiment that turns ordinary humans into giants, the experimental subjects cannot be those detained World Government prisoners, but only children!
"Alas, half a year ago, the Scouse family's three-year-old son disappeared. That's why he is like this..."
"Lixia's daughter? Yes, she was swept away by the sea two months ago. There is no place to look for it..."
"Why are you asking the Gavri family's lost child? Have you ever seen it?!"
"Could it be that they were secretly captured by slave traders? The blasphemers attacked Mary Joa and liberated the slaves. Could it be that... No, the Celestial Dragons should not want such young children as slaves. Alas..."
Ji Xing heard a lot of similar words in half a month. There were five or six cases of children missing or being shipwrecked on the island within half a year.
This is a frequency that will not cause obvious concern for the time being, but based on the known information, it is naturally not that unusual. Five or six cases were taken away from one island, and so many were captured from each of the dozen or so surrounding islands, which is a large number of experimental subjects.
And this number is still growing little by little.
“Guests, please go slowly and welcome to visit us next time!”
After paying the bill and leaving the restaurant, Ji Xing burped after eating and looked into the distance: "We met just after recovering from the injury. I'm very lucky..."
Two streets away, a young man with a square nose was quietly watching a courtyard.
Ferrico has been observing this place for two days and determined that there is a three to four-year-old boy in this family. He plays alone in the yard every noon. His mother is cooking and his father is not at home.
This is a great opportunity.
Waiting for an opportunity when no one was paying attention, he sneaked into the yard like a little black man. The boy, who was peeing and having fun in the mud, did not notice the approaching shadow. A handkerchief sprayed with sleeping gas was applied to his mouth, and he
Fell down.
Putting it in his pocket and carrying it on his back, Ferico flew away quickly and arrived at the coast without any hindrance. He couldn't help but smile.
On a small boat not far away, the companion who was responding was overjoyed when he saw this: "Did you succeed?"
"Of course, I am Felico who never fails!" Felico said with a smile: "Let's go, if we go back later, Lord Caesar will scold us again!"
After checking the 'cargo', throwing it into the utility room, locking the door, the boat set sail.
And not long after, in that small courtyard, the young mother poked her head from the kitchen and said: "Dua! Dua! Wash your hands, it's time to eat!"
"... Dua?"
Not hearing the child's response, the young mother panicked and quickly wiped her hands and walked out.
The empty courtyard and the wide open door made her immediately anxious. She ran out of the courtyard and looked around: "Dua! Dua?!"
When there was no response, she rushed home in horror: "Dua! Are you at home?!"
After searching in various rooms, she finally saw her sleeping son on the bed in her bedroom. Tears fell from her eyes. Just now, she thought of various possibilities, including being lost, abducted... The fear was about to swallow her heart!
"Damn it, you scared mom to death...why did you end up sleeping here?"
At the same time, Ji Xing, who was lying in the utility room of the boat, changed into a comfortable position and took a nap.
…
The boat sailed leisurely towards Punk Hassad. The crew, who often sailed in the New World, had adapted to the changeable weather in the New World and remained calm.
Felico and the others had a big meal for another successful mission and played cards all afternoon. It wasn't until dinner was ready in the evening that anyone mentioned: "By the way, it's almost time for the dazed kid to wake up."
, don’t wait for him to cry, Lauran, it’s still the same, go and comfort him and let him eat something obediently.”
"Yes, I have to be a nanny again. I hope the child won't wet his pants this time." The 30-year-old blond beauty complained, with a gentle maternal glow on her face, and walked towards the utility room.
It's the most difficult thing if the children don't cooperate. They don't have the right to teach the children. They have always been ordered to lie and claim that the children have a disease that will become serious and take them for treatment. Lauran is already familiar with it and opens the door.
Just say.
"Aren't you awake yet, little baby...baby?!
"
At the last word, Lauran's tone had a clear uphill climb, and she stared straight at the man who was three heads taller than her. What kind of child had she captured this time?!
Ji Xing blinked: "Where am I?"
His tone was 70% confused and 30% fearful.
Lauran forced a smile: "Don't be afraid, baby, I'm a doctor. You have a disease that will get bigger. Hey, this disease really exists... Hey! You don't think you can deceive me like this, do you?
?!"
Halfway through the line, she broke down and shouted: "Someone, come on! Someone is on board for no apparent reason!"
"What?!"
Everyone quickly gathered together and stared at Ji Xing in front of the utility room: "Who are you?!"
Half a minute later.
"Sir! Please use it!" Felico and the other five respectfully gathered around the dining table, bowed and invited Ji Xing to eat their dinner.
Seeing Ji Xing start eating, the four people with some bruises on their faces cast unkind glances at Felico. Felico never misses, haha?
Felico was about to cry without tears. I checked it when we took it on board. He was a child. Why did he suddenly grow so big and his fists were so hard? What should I do? In the vast sea, the screams are not working every day.
, the earth and the earth should not respond!
The five people watched in panic as Ji Xing finished the dinner for five people and looked up at them, with flattering smiles on each of their faces.
"My lord, who are you?"
"Why are you arresting children?" Ji Xing asked, "Who is Mr. Caesar?"
Several people looked at each other, and Ferrico cautiously replied: "Lord Caesar is our leader, why are you arresting the child... We don't know, this is Lord Caesar's order, we are just executing it."
It was full of loopholes, but Ji Xing seemed to believe it, nodded and said: "You are returning now, right? Don't play tricks, take me to your Lord Caesar, and I will ask him in person."
The five of them were startled and looked at each other, secretly pleased.
"Yes! Sir!"
After staying up all night in fear and fear, at noon the next day, Punk Hassad was seen in the distance, and Ferrico's heart finally dropped slightly.
"Sir Swordsman." He approached Ji Xing and guided him: "That's the island. The environment on the island is very complicated. If you are not careful, you will get lost. You must follow us in a while!"
They are quite quick-witted and are afraid that I will kill them here. Ji Xing nodded: "Okay, I'll follow closely."
Soon they arrived on the island, and the five of them led Ji Xing all the way deep into the island. They did avoid many ferocious beasts, and the path they took was also a shortcut. They looked very well-behaved, but their hearts jumped to more than 200 beats per minute.
times, very clear.
Until a huge building in the distance appeared in sight, and the road became paved with bricks and stones, the five people suddenly ran away in tacit understanding!
"Help! Enemy attack!"
The chaotic shouts alerted the guards in the distance, and the five people rushed into the guards' eyes and started talking, then scattered to the side and looked back proudly.
Idiot! Let’s see if you die!
Ten seconds later.
The guards were lying down, and the five of them were kneeling.
"Sir, please spare my life——"
Ji Xing said: "Get up and continue leading the way."
"……Yes Yes!"
The five of them looked at each other for the rest of their lives, and still dared to let us continue?
Oh, there are Miso-sama and the others too!
You are very good at fighting?! How many can you fight?!
ten minutes later.
Among the soldiers lying on the ground in the tattered Experimental Area B, several of them were the ones who had to nod and bow down when the five of them met, including Lord Miso, who had pinned their hopes on them.
How, how could this happen?
One person leveled the entire base?
No, impossible, absolutely impossible!
And Lord Caesar!
The poisonous energy of my Lord Caesar is unrivaled in the world!
In another minute, M. Caesar Coulang, who had long dark purple hair, a horn-like decoration on his head, and used the ability of the gas fruit to turn his coat into gas, making him look like a ghost, collapsed on the ground, watching in horror a spreading
Up to the crotch crack!
The steel door made of tough No. 4 steel in the research base exploded to the ground, and a knife-cut crack extended directly to him from Area B, a full 100 meters away, preventing him from opening the poison gas mechanism, and even almost... almost...
make him……
No, I'm a gas man.
wrong……
"who are you?!"
He looked at Ji Xing with half ferocity and half fear. I was doing experiments in the base and humming a song, and I almost got chopped with a knife?
The five people who had led him here were even more stunned and frightened. Seeing Ji Xing's eyes, their knees softened and they knelt on the ground.
"Thank you for your guidance, but your mission is not over yet." Ji Xing said: "When the navy comes, you need to lead the navy to send the children who were captured on the island home. Can you do that?"
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is currently the best app to use, change the source app, install the latest version at www.huanyuanapp.com.]
The five people seemed to have received amnesty.
"Yes! Yes! We can!"
Ji Xing nodded and walked towards Caesar.
Caesar swallowed hard and was ready to turn into gas and flee: "You, who are you? What do you want to do?!"
"You'd better not move. Natural abilities are indeed rare, but Haki can attack entities. You don't think I can't arm you, right?"
Ji Xing's words made Caesar's face turn even paler: "I ask, you answer."
"This is an experimental base belonging to the Navy? Does the Navy know that you are catching children for experiments?"
Catching children? Because of this?
Caesar secretly glanced at Felico and the other five men fiercely, and when he met Ji Xing's gaze, he smiled again: "I don't know... yes, I asked people to do this privately, yes... my subordinates were blind,
Have you caught your kid?”
"Contact the phone number at the nearby naval base. Do you have one here?" Ji Xing added.
Caesar hesitated for a moment, then took out a small phone from his pocket: "This is from the nearby G5 base. Do you want to..."
Ji Xing answered the call and heard a deep male voice from the other side: "What's going on?"
Ji Xing said: "This is Punk Hassad. I want to report the scientist Caesar for secretly abducting children from surrounding islands to use as experimental subjects."
The person on the other side of the phone was silent for a few seconds, and his voice became a little louder: "Is that really so? What's the situation in Punk Hassad now?"
"The evil scientist Caesar has been subdued by me. The children should be fine. Please send a warship over as soon as possible. I will wait for you here."
"Okay, thank you for your help!"
When the caller hung up, Caesar looked desperate, but in his heart he was actually ecstatic.
Then Ji Xing asked again: "Can we monitor all areas here? Don't play tricks and mobilize the surveillance in all places."
The knife was placed across his neck, and Caesar flinched at the cold touch and quickly followed suit.
The ABCD experimental area, the area where prisoners were held for experiments, and the children's living area all appeared in front of Ji Xing's eyes through the screen.
Because of the shaking and roaring, the criminals made some strange movements, but they could not open the cage. The number of children was as many as fifty or sixty as Ji Xing expected, and they were all frightened.
He turned back and said: "You five go take care of the children and get them some food. You can try running and see who among us is faster."
Of course, the frightened five people did not dare to run away, so they obeyed, leaving Ji Xing and Caesar alone, and Caesar swallowed nervously.
"Give me the experimental data and logs."
"Experimental data?...Ah, yes!"
Without putting the knife on his neck, Caesar quickly followed the instructions. Ji Xing started reading and quickly hummed: "Gigantization of human beings? Humans are human beings, and giants are giants. Such an experiment violates the foundation of human ethics. You are really a bastard who deserves to be killed!"
"
Caesar trembled slightly, thinking fiercely about how to deal with Ji Xing later. On the surface, he nodded and bowed: "Yes, yes..."
Ji Xing flipped through the pages quickly, seemingly reading the experimental information casually, but in fact he had memorized the key points through his photographic memory.
Of course, he is not very interested in this experiment, but it also contains some blood factors, that is, genetic knowledge. He can study it with Xiao Ai to see if there is any inspiration for demon research.
Soon, he said: "There are other experiments. What other experiments are being done here?"
Do you understand, idiot! Caesar cursed in his heart and flattered Ji Xing to change his job.
"This is a poison gas experiment, an experiment permitted by the world government, and the test subjects are all pirates or other prisoners..."
Ji Xing really doesn't care much about this. In the world view of pirates, using criminals for human experiments is considered a routine operation. Even the most righteous navy would not mention the human rights of criminals.
He just took a look at the fate of criminals caused by various poisonous gas reactions, and then said: "What else?"
"No, this experimental base is mainly for experimenting with poison gas. The transformation of children into giants was done by me privately..." Caesar said with a smile.
"Do you think I'm blind?" Ji Xing pointed forward with a knife. There was an apple-shaped fruit with round spots in the crystal box: "What is that? It looks like a devil fruit, but it doesn't seem like it."
"Ah - then, that is a mutated fruit, because it looks like a devil fruit..."
"Shall I feed you?"
"……it is this!"
Caesar quickly entered the complicated password to retrieve the artificial devil fruit information. Humph, this bastard will definitely die later, so I'll bear with you for now!
"Artificial Devil Fruit Smile..." Ji Xing narrowed his eyes slightly: "There is such a thing, you are really dishonest."
Caesar smiled flatteringly, and was suddenly startled when a 46-yard foot kicked him in the face with lightning speed!
boom--
He hit the wall and passed out.
Ji Xing dragged a chair over, sat down and read carefully, reading his true goal this time.
Will the influence of Devil Fruit on bloodline factors, genes, and the ability obtained by fusion be similar to the fusion of my body's human gene and demon gene? If so, can I get a reference to make my body's strength even higher?
Next, go to Zhongdu and buy insurance?
Of course he knows that Lieutenant General Vergo of the G5 base is Doflamingo's undercover agent, and he also knows the principle of pulling up carrots and bringing out the mud.
Due to the Nata incident two years ago, as a peace officer, he traveled across several islands to silence Xiaochao Village and avoid conflict with Doflamingo.
But now, Ji Xing doesn't care if he brings out Mud, even if he brings out the even bigger Mud Emperor Kaido behind Doflamingo!
He read carefully and memorized Caesar Courant's analysis and important knowledge of Devil Fruit.
