Chapter 137 The Feasibility of Bringing People Across
Chapter 137 The Feasibility of Bringing People Across
The speed that far exceeded the limits of human beings and the terrifying power that could move mountains and fill the sea at will were even beyond her imagination.
Looking back on it afterwards, there is still a faint sense of despair. If it weren't for Borsalino, Tornado doesn't know how the Earth would have survived this crisis.
Even Blast, who once saved the sisters, is unlikely to be a match for Boros.
"By the way, in addition to this, there is a newcomer in the S-class... Sweet Mask has been officially promoted to an S-class hero."
Fubuki also found it a little unbelievable when she said this. The guy who clearly had S-level strength but had always refused to be promoted, finally changed his mind for some reason.
"Who is that?"
Borsalino was stunned for a moment and couldn't remember who Fubuki was talking about. He just felt that the name Sweetheart Mask sounded a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
"It turned out to be that grandstanding guy..."
A look of disdain appeared on Tornado's face. She didn't really agree with the Hero Association's S-class heroes, but whether one was qualified to become an S-class hero was not something a mere A-class trash could judge.
Someone with real ability, like Borsalino, was directly ranked 9th in S-class. Is it time for Sweet Mask to say anything?
"On the first day of the training camp, the one who caused trouble was Sweetheart Mask."
Fubuki took the initiative to remind him that Sweet Mask had disappeared for a long time since he was beaten up by Borsalino. He only reappeared not long ago and applied to the Hero Association for promotion to an S-class hero.
Even if we ignore Sweet Mask's influence as an idol star, based on his past achievements and his own strength, he is fully qualified to become an S-class hero.
Therefore, Sweet Mask soon became the 18th in S-class. His hero code name did not change, but it was said that he refused to continue working as an idol star and seemed to be preparing to concentrate on being a professional hero.
"I seem to have some impression of him... Never mind, he's just an insignificant guy anyway."
Borsalino said indifferently that for him now, one must at least have the level of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, which is equivalent to the strength of the top few S-class heroes, in order for him to look at him a little more highly.
Or people like Child Emperor and Drive Knight who have black technology in their hands and whose way of doing things would not make Borsalino feel disgusted.
At the very least, they have to be "tool men" like Genos before Borsalino would have the idea of remembering them.
As for Sweet Mask, all we can say is that Borsalino barely remembers the existence of such a person.
Apart from that, regarding his personality and abilities, sorry... who are you talking about?
"Also, your bonus has been paid into the Fubuki Group's bank account. Do you want to open another account or what do you want to do with it?"
Fubuki rubbed his forehead helplessly. When Borsalino went to register to become a hero, he was too lazy to go to the bank to open an account, so he reported the Fubuki Group's account.
At that time, she didn't expect Borsalino's bonus to be so much. Looking at the bonus that had many more zeros than her own account balance, Fubuki just wanted Borsalino to take it away quickly.
Otherwise, she couldn't guarantee that when new bags or luxury goods were released one day, she would be able to resist embezzling Borsalino's bonus.
Before this, the account of the Fubuki Group was almost equivalent to Fubuki's wallet. It didn't matter how she spent the money, after all, the money in the account was mainly deposited by her.
But now that Borsalino has joined the fray, things are becoming a little more difficult.
"Just leave it there... well, use it as pocket money for you and Tatsumaki. If it's not enough, just come back to me."
Borsalino said indifferently that women and toys were always the things he was willing to spend money on. Of course, the toys here referred to things like ancient weapons.
Of course, Borsalino has always clearly distinguished between public money and private money. Before he decided to overthrow the World Government, he could spend hundreds of millions of berries to invite his marines to play in the amusement park for a few days and nights, but he was unwilling to spend even 50,000 berries to buy a broken sword for his marines.
It was only after he was ready to become the Admiral of the Navy that Borsalino began to consider updating the equipment for the marines. Before that, he had always thought of falsifying expenses to cheat money from the World Government.
If Tony Stark's arms price list had been revealed before that, Borsalino might have really cooperated with him and colluded with him to drain the world government's finances.
"Tsk, I don't need it... Fubuki, give me a card later."
Tornado turned her head away proudly, and when Borsalino wasn't paying attention, she asked Fubuki for a card.
With her hero ranking and achievements, it is impossible for her to lack bonuses. However, since it is Borsalino's money, she must have a share even if she does not intend to spend it.
"Hey, what are you guys talking about?"
Tony Stark, carrying a large suitcase, walked over and greeted Borsalino and the two sisters Tornado and Blizzard.
Although most of the information had been copied by Jarvis, there were still some things that Stark believed had to be kept strictly confidential, so he chose to take them away in paper documents.
It's not that he thinks Jarvis is likely to leak information, but the existence of paper documents has its special value after all, and Tony Stark believes that the things inside must not be leaked, so he simply chooses to deal with it in a relatively primitive way.
"Let's talk about the Hero Association again. Are you interested in signing up to become a professional hero?"
Borsalino said with some evil humor, Iron Man is already a superhero anyway, so there is nothing wrong with him being a professional hero.
If all goes well, he can also invite other members in the Dimension Chat Group to come to One Punch World and register as a hero.
"Hey, being a hero and saving civilians in another world, that's a good idea, but unfortunately I really don't have the time..."
Tony Stark shook his head and smiled bitterly. As the head of Stark Industries, he already had a lot to do. He also had to develop the iron suit and perform the duties of 'Iron Man'.
Now Borsalino has found him a bunch of technical information. Even if Tony Stark has made up his mind not to use these technologies on the Iron Man suit and himself, he has to learn them before he can help his friends in the chat group use them.
In addition to the time he had spent picking up girls and being a playboy, Tony Stark was suddenly looking forward to the newcomer in the chat group, Miss Hermione from the wizarding world, to bring him the good news about the time turner as soon as possible.
"Well, remember to tell me if you change your mind."
Borsalino didn't care much about it. With his personality, he would have too many spur-of-the-moment ideas like this.
If each of them were to be achieved, Borsalino would not be able to cope even if he had to split himself into two.
"I've almost finished packing. I'm going to go back now. When you have time, remember to come and have a party with me... and my dinosaur!"
Tony Stark put on his Iron Man suit and returned to the Marvel world. Although he was not going to use Dr. Povoy's technology, after seeing that technology, he had many inspirations waiting to be realized one by one.
The biggest difference between geniuses and ordinary scientists is that geniuses often have countless inspirations, and they can all be realized in the end.
Ordinary scientists have to spend a lot of time and energy when they occasionally have an idea, but they may not be able to achieve the results that geniuses can easily accomplish.
"Then I'll take my leave too. Remember to take the alien and his spaceship away as soon as possible, or I'll ask you to compensate me if the Earth disappears one day!"
Haibara Ai was also preparing to leave with a lot of gains. In addition to the technical information left by Dr. Bofoy, she also exchanged a bunch of brand-name bags with Fubuki.
Of course, most of them are still available for purchase. The two girls were cunning enough not to take out the limited edition ones for exchange.
"Don't worry, I'll take Boros and the others over as soon as I get back."
Borsalino said with a smile that he was also planning to let Boros and his Cosmic Dark Matter Pirates give the World Government and the Five Elders a big surprise.
Space pirates are also pirates anyway, and since they are pirates, there is nothing wrong with wanting to be the Pirate King.
Since the Pirate King is still not satisfied, it is only natural for him to cause trouble for the World Government.
Then it will be his turn as the Navy Admiral to make a brilliant appearance and defeat the alien Pirate King to save the world!
Of course, before that, the Space Pirate King will destroy the World Government and the Five Elder Stars, and scatter the ashes of the Celestial Dragons. It would be even better if he could defeat Im as well.
No, it’s better to let Boros overthrow the World Government and Im.
As for the Celestial Dragons, Borsalino plans to hold an auction to let them have a taste of what it feels like to be auctioned off.
I believe that a certain Golden Emperor would definitely be willing to pay a sky-high price to buy all the Tianlong people and get along with them in a "friendly" way.
"Brother Borsalino, Sister Tornado, Sister Fubuki, I want to go back too..."
Little sister Xiao Mei came over to say goodbye, a little embarrassed. Both Tony Stark and Haibara Ai came over to help, and they also sorted out a bunch of technical information to benefit the group members in the chat group.
She was the only one who didn't help at all from beginning to end, and even ate a lot of delicious food, as if she was here on vacation.
"Remember to come and play again when you have time."
Fubuki didn't mind that little sister Xiao Mei was just a bystander the whole time. The people in the chat group were too powerful, which made her feel a little inferior. Occasionally, someone weaker than her came along, which made Fubuki secretly happy.
"If anyone bullies you in the future, remember to tell Fubuki to tell me. I...I'll ask Borsalino to come over and support you!"
Tornado straightened her back and pretended to be mature. Only in front of Xiao Mei and Huibara Ai could she act like an older sister without any pressure.
"Yeah, thank you, Sister Tornado!"
Xiao Mei obviously knew what Long Juan wanted to hear. Calling her "big sister" made Long Juan smile so much that she almost asked Xiao Mei to become sworn sisters with her.
Fubuki on the side just watched with a smile. She knew what her sister Tornado was thinking, but she didn't intentionally want to look more mature than her sister.
Unless she takes poison and becomes smaller like Ai-chan, Fubuki really doesn't know what to do to become smaller than her sister.
Seeing Xiao Mei also disappear in the white light with Huiyuan Ai, just when Tornado felt very regretful, Borsalino suddenly showed a bit strange expression. Looking at Tornado with a face full of reluctance, Borsalino scratched his head and sank his consciousness into the dimensional chat group.
[A passerby who wants to curry favor with Luo Feng: What the hell! Is this true? If you eat an animal-type devil fruit, you can travel to other worlds through the chat group? Then can I do the same...]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: Oh, it turns out that I can travel through time, then it's okay. ]
[Kobayashi: Hey, but didn't Borsalino-san say that humans who eat animal-type devil fruits are still humans? Didn't Passerby-san turn into a gorilla? ]
[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: It's the giant ape King Kong! Xiaolin, don't talk nonsense! ]
【Xiao Lin: Oh, King Kong, I got it down.】
[Orochimaru: Haha, it’s true that Passerby-kun is still a human, but the restrictions of the dimensional chat group can indeed be circumvented. ]
[Orochimaru: Let’s not talk about the dragon that Krillin raised for now. Borsalino-kun just tried to let aliens travel through time. Does that mean aliens are not human? That’s not necessarily true, right?]
[Borsalino: Animal-type devil fruit, Orochimaru, how confident are you? ]
[Orochimaru: You will know after trying it. I have already let a test subject eat the animal-type devil fruit you traded to me. Who among you is willing to cooperate? ]
[Orochimaru: Don't worry, this guy was a bandit who did all kinds of evil before he became my experimental subject. It's not a pity that he died.]
[Borsalino: Let me do it. Send the person over to see. If it works, I will trade you a batch of animal-type devil fruits to confirm whether there is any risk.]
[Orochimaru: Haha, get ready to receive it. ]
……
Borsalino, who had just transferred his consciousness to reality, received a trade request from Orochimaru.
Theoretically, the dimensional chat group does not actually have the ability to bring "people" through time. It is just that under the development of Orochimaru, the loophole-taking devil, the trading function was used to start the working life of the Ryuchi Cave snakes.
Then Kobayashi began to try to let the dragon Thor sneak across in the same way, and then Borsalino used the dimensional chat group to send Boros and his spaceship to another world.
Now Orochimaru has even proposed the theory that those who have eaten the ability of the Animal-type Devil Fruit are no longer "human". If Orochimaru can successfully exploit this loophole, the dimensional chat group will really be expanded to have more uses in the future.
Of course, the most crucial question is how many animal-type devil fruits Borsalino, who guards the pirate world, can provide.
At least before Orochimaru developed the technology to copy animal-type devil fruits, this function was almost tailor-made for Borsalino.
[Ding! Orochimaru has sent a trade invitation to @Borusalino. Do you accept? ]
【Accept/Reject】
Looking at the familiar trade request, Borsalino chose to accept it without hesitation.
A white light flashed, and the next moment a half-cat man with a square-looking head appeared in front of Borsalino.
The sudden change of scene scared the half-cat man to death.
But when he saw only a terrifyingly tall man and two girls, one big and one small, an expression of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face.
Although he didn't know what was going on, judging from the surrounding situation, he seemed to have escaped from the terrible Orochimaru!
"That's great! Sister, this way you can go to the world of Borsalino in the future!" Fubuki hugged her sister Tornado with joy. She had seen Orochimaru's remarks in the chat group. As long as one eats an animal-type devil fruit and maintains the beastman or beast form, the system will determine that one is not a 'human' in the strict sense.
In other words, even Tornado can complete the "smuggling" in this way, but if she wants to go back and forth, she has to rely on Fubuki's help. She can't go alone, nor can she participate in the interaction of the chat group.
However, for Tornado, who has been with Fubuki for many years, this obviously does not cause any trouble to her.
"Tsk, it's not like I really want to go to his world..."
Tornado pouted and tried to be stubborn, but the joy in her eyes could not be concealed.
"Hmm, in that case, should I raise the exchange price of the Animal Devil Fruit, or cancel the exchange altogether? I wonder if artificial Devil Fruits can have the same effect..."
Borsalino touched his chin and thought with a headache, if given a choice, most people would definitely choose the natural or superhuman devil fruit.
After all, the upper limit of the animal type devil fruit is obviously much lower than that of the natural type and the superhuman type. Unless it is an extremely rare mythical beast species, or a special ancient species, the value of the animal type devil fruit is almost the lowest.
However, now Orochimaru has developed a new use for the Animal-type Devil Fruit by taking advantage of a loophole in the chat group.
Apart from anything else, Borsalino himself thought of a lot of scenarios where it would be needed, and it was not unexpected that the friends in the chat group would also want to redeem a large number of them.
Even though he would soon become the Grand Admiral of the Navy and was planning to overthrow the World Government in the near future, it would be difficult to get a Zoan-type Devil Fruit that would satisfy everyone's needs.
I was still considering which pirate emperor after Whitebeard to deal with first, but now it seems that I can decide.
Who made Kaido like to recruit animal-type Devil Fruit users so much? Although it is very inefficient to recover Devil Fruits by killing the users, it is always good to have more spots available.
"Hey! Kid over there! Where is this place?!"
Just as Borsalino was secretly thinking about how to collect more animal-type devil fruits, the "half-cat man" who had finally calmed down after the ecstasy suddenly shouted at him arrogantly.
Borsalino's three-meter height is naturally intimidating to ordinary people, but his handsome face makes it easy for people to underestimate his age.
In addition, the 'half-cat man' is no longer the same as before, so he naturally won't take such a young man in front of him seriously.
"Huh? You ask me?"
Borsalino looked a little bewildered. He almost forgot how many years ago it was that someone last dared to call him that.
Thinking back carefully, it seemed like it was when we were in the Naval Academy. If I'm not mistaken, that unlucky guy was later transferred to his staff. Every time I saw Borsalino, he seemed to have rickets and didn't even dare to straighten his back.
"Tsk, you're just a fool! I'm known as the Spider Ghost..."
Before the half-cat could finish his words, Borsalino sneered and reached out to grab him.
The furious half-cat man flicked out sharp claws from his fingertips, ready to teach this particularly tall boy a painful lesson.
And then nothing happened. Borsalino casually grabbed the half-cat man and shook him lightly, draining all his strength away.
"Change back to beast form, or I'll kill you."
Borsalino spoke very straightforwardly.
According to Orochimaru's conjecture, only animal-type Devil Fruit users in beast form and beast form can take advantage of the loophole in the chat group, but for Tornado's safety, Borsalino still has to try a few more times to ensure that there won't be an accident where he can only take advantage of the loophole once.
"…How did you know?"
The half-cat man, whose strength was shaken off by Borsalino, was shocked. He didn't know what kind of experiment Orochimaru had done on him, and since then he had gained the ability to transform.
It's just that he has been deliberately hiding the fact that he can transform into an animal, and Orochimaru has no intention of exposing him.
Who could have thought that a young man he had never met could not only capture him easily, but also reveal the secret that he had hidden with great difficulty.
"3, 2..."
Borsalino began the countdown with an expressionless face.
Just a slight hint of murderous intent was enough to scare this ignorant guy so much that he almost peed his pants.
Soon the half-cat man in Borsalino's hand turned into a caracal.
This is a small animal that looks like an inflated cat. It has a ferocious temperament and good combat ability. It is considered a relatively powerful type among ordinary animal-type devil fruits.
"The Cat-Cat Fruit: Manul Form? What a waste..."
Borsalino shook his head. He would not take a mere animal-type devil fruit seriously, but now these animal-type devil fruits are basically equivalent to a ticket to travel to other worlds.
If the Celestial Dragons in the pirate world knew about this, the price would probably skyrocket by dozens or even hundreds of times in an instant.
Of course, the prerequisite is that Borsalino is willing to help them travel through time, but when the time comes to reveal this secret, there will be no Celestial Dragons or World Government as expected.
"This... this lord..."
The 'caracal' held in Borsalino's hand showed an ugly and cute smile, as if it wanted to beg for mercy from Borsalino.
But before it could finish its words, Borsalino simply traded it back to Orochimaru.
This experimental material will be needed to continue testing the feasibility of traveling through the world. After everything is verified, if it is still alive, there will be a final experiment waiting for it.
That is to verify whether the method of recovering devil fruits by killing people with special abilities can be realized in other worlds.
If it cannot be recovered on the spot, will this devil fruit reappear in some corner of the ninja world or the pirate world, or will it disappear completely from then on?
