One Piece Food System - Chapter 394
c389 quid pro quo
“Wait! Please wait a moment!” Gaji suddenly became anxious when he heard that Dr. Vegapunk was about to hang up the phone. “I have something urgent to talk to you about, so please don’t hang up the phone.”
“Is it important?” Dr. Vegapunk was slightly surprised.
“It’s like this. I’m being hunted by the ‘Mechanical Legion’ right now. I can’t hold on much longer. If you don’t lend a helping hand, I probably won’t survive today…” Gaji said hurriedly.
“‘Mechanical Legion’? Is it a force formed by that guy Hercules?” Dr. Vegapunk asked again after thinking for a moment.
Dr. Vegapunk was not very familiar with Gaji. He didn’t remember who Gaji was until he mentioned some of his past information, but Hercules was different.
Back then, Gaji could only be regarded as an assistant to Dr. Vegapunk in the ‘Germa Group’, but Hercules was as famous as Dr. Vegapunk. In the ‘Germa Group’ The group’s status is almost the same, so how could Dr. Vegapunk not remember him.
However, despite this, Hercules is still far inferior to Dr. Vegapunk. Even Hercules himself is very clear about this.
It is not without reason that Dr. Vegapunk is called a super genius with wisdom that is five hundred years ahead of mankind.
Furthermore, the research directions that the two are good at are also different.
Dr. Vegapunk focuses on biotechnology, and Hercules focuses on mechanical technology. However, the biotechnology in this world itself is much ahead of mechanical technology. Coupled with Dr. Vegapunk’s perverted wisdom, which is as smart as a demon, it is Have achieved this level of success now.
Just one person makes the world government feel threatened, and even goes so far as to destroy a giant war group for him!
It was precisely because he knew how incredible Dr. Vegapunk was that Gaji suddenly asked him for help at this moment, because it was obvious that ‘BIGMOM’ was now unreliable.
“Yes, sir, it is Hercules.” After hearing Dr. Begapunk’s question, Gaji responded quickly.
“If I remember correctly, Hercules should be a person punished by heaven now, right? Have you provoked heaven’s punishment?” Dr. Vegapunk asked calmly.
“It’s not me who provokes heaven’s punishment, it’s heaven’s punishment…”
“Okay, I’m not interested in hearing the story between you.” Dr. Begapunk interrupted Gaji directly and said calmly, “You and I are not even as familiar with each other as I am with Hercules. Come on, why do you want me to save you? If you want to talk about your time as my assistant, let’s stop the conversation. Why don’t you keep some good memories? ”
“No, no, no, sir, you have misunderstood. Of course I didn’t mean it.” Gaji was afraid that Dr. Vegapunk would hang up the phone and said hurriedly, “Of course I didn’t come to you for help for no reason, so I can’t play tricks on you. No, how can I have the courage…”
“Continue.” Dr. Vegapunk was indifferent.
“I wonder if you have continued to study that project over the years?” Gaji suddenly asked.
“That project?” Dr. Vegapunk’s voice paused, and after a while, his voice became a little louder. “What exactly do you want to say? Don’t give it to me. If you don’t explain it clearly, I will die. I don’t have time to guess riddles with you here.”
“Yes, yes.” Gaji didn’t dare to pay attention to Dr. Vegapunk’s rude tone. After all, he was asking for help now, “That’s it. When the ‘Germa Group’ was destroyed, you were captured by the World Government. After they left, I took advantage of the chaos to sneak away a copy of all the research materials you had on that time, and escaped outside the Grand Line, so I was lucky enough to save my life.”
“Later, I used your research to do a lot of experiments, and successfully used it to complete experiments on cloning and superhuman cultivation, and also created many successful products.” Gaji said succinctly, “If you can If you save my life, I can give you all my experimental data over the years, as well as a large number of experimental products, do you think that’s okay?”
After Gaji finished speaking, he waited quietly for Dr. Vegapunk’s answer.
The heartbeat also kept accelerating.
Because his life and death are now controlled by Dr. Vegapunk’s thought. If he doesn’t agree, he will die. If he agrees, he will still have a chance to live…
Of course, it was not without thought that he would find Dr. Vegapunk and use this as an exchange. In fact, he had already thought about the arrival of this day.
However, in his imaginary situation, he was not being chased by Heavenly Punishment, because there was no Heavenly Punishment at that time. His imaginary enemies were the other ‘Four Emperors’.
He had thought at that time that if one day he was pushed too hard, he would hand over all the experimental results and information on the ‘blood factor’ to Dr. Vegapunk to save his life.
Although the ‘blood factor’ project itself was the work of Dr. Vegapunk, after the news was accidentally leaked, the world government saw the terrifying potential of this research and did not dare to let Dr. Vegapunk continue the research. Only then did we decide to completely destroy the ‘Germa Group’.
But because he was unwilling to kill a genius like Dr. Vegapunk, he subdued him and made him serve himself.
Dr. Vegapunk’s status in the navy and the world government is very high, but this does not mean that he can be unscrupulous, research whatever he wants, and experiment on whatever he wants. Especially for that kind of very dangerous research, the world government will definitely impose restrictions.
On the other hand, Gaji was different. After he obtained the research information on the ‘blood factor’, he secretly hid in Beihai, directly out of the sight of the World Government.
When he reappeared, he had successfully developed an army of artificial humans using the ‘blood factor’, and used conspiracy to force the world government not to kill him easily.
Dr. Vegapunk can do experiments that he can’t do, and he has been doing them for so many years.
Experiments are not as difficult as simple development and research. The main thing is that they require time. With Gaji’s ability, if you just do a lot of experiments, there is no problem at all.
Therefore, he believed that Dr. Vegapunk should not be able to refuse his proposal.
Interesting experimental results are like a starving ghost seeing a sumptuous dinner to a scientist. Even as wise as Dr. Vegapunk, it is impossible not to be unmoved.
Sure enough, Dr. Vegapunk’s reply also verified Gaji’s guess.
“Okay, please tell me your coordinates and I will find a way to rescue you immediately.” Dr. Vegapunk said straightforwardly without any nonsense.
“Yes!” Gaji was overjoyed.
He has great confidence in Dr. Vegapunk. Since the other party promised to save him, he may really be saved this time!
He quickly reported the coordinates and said, “Please hurry up, I don’t think I can last long, the ‘Mechanical Legion’s’ offensive is too strong!”
“Got it.” Dr. Vegapunk hung up the phone.
Gaji breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Reiju and Iji, “Go, go and sort out all the information in my laboratory for later use.”
“Yes, father!” Reiju and Iji responded with clasped fists.
