Chapter 182 Beast Titan! Armored Titan! The Five Elders exclaimed that it was like
Half a year ago, Judge helped the Beasts Pirates to open a factory for producing artificial devil fruit seeds and a farm for growing artificial devil fruits in the forest of Jiuli.
It takes half a year for artificial devil fruits to grow from planting to maturity.
And now, after half a year of growth, the first batch of artificial devil fruits are finally mature.
When Ian heard the news, he couldn’t help but feel happy.
This time the Beasts Pirates are really worthy of their name.
Uncle Jin, who is in charge of farm management, set out immediately and returned with the first batch of artificial devil fruits not long after.
“So, is this an artificial devil fruit?”
On the Golden Dragon, all the friends gathered here.
In fact, in line with the principle of acting in full, Ian and his friends have been living on the boat these days.
In front of them were small boxes, all of which were opened, revealing the spiral-patterned fruits inside.
All the friends looked at it curiously, and Black Maria picked up one and looked at it carefully, “It doesn’t look much different from ordinary devil fruits.”
”Not just in appearance,”
Ian said lightly, “Although it can’t switch forms at will like the genuine animal-type devil fruit ability users, the increase in ability is no less than that of the real animal-type devil fruit.”
These artificial devil fruits are made based on the bloodline factors of the beasts on Ruskena Island.
In terms of strength, they are not comparable to the defective products made by Caesar in the original work.
Although it can’t be compared with the mythical beast species, and even the ancient species are far inferior, but if it is based on those ordinary animal systems, it can still be fifty-fifty.
”The first batch of fruits has a total of 100.”
Ian said, “Here are 50.”
Otherwise, why is it still Mr. Kai? It’s really nice.
Directly give half of the artificial devil fruit to Ian and let him use it freely.
According to Mr. Kai, Ian’s subordinates are also very strong, so they are even worthy of more fruits.
He really, Ian cried to death.
”Everyone, is there anyone interested?”
Ian smiled and looked at a yellow-haired kid, “Sanji?”
”I’ll forget it.”
Sanji looked disgusted, “I’m not interested in the work of that bastard dad.”
Ian’s mouth twitched.
Still being stubborn, right?
I see you are having fun using your bloodline factor and combat uniform.
But Sanji doesn’t really need an artificial devil fruit. If he has to eat a fruit, at least it should be a natural type and a mythical beast type to suit him, right? ”Forget Kuina. I’m helping you find a suitable devil fruit on the black market. Then,”
Ian looked at Zoro, who was still happily curled up by the side of the ship stroking the three swords even after two days. “Zoro?”
There are really not many powerless people on the ship.
Everyone is a power user.
”Not interested.”
Zoro didn’t even raise his head. “I have enough swords.”
Okay.
Ian nodded. Sure enough.
”Babanuki!”
He shouted.
“Lord Ian, here I come!”
The steward of the Golden Dragon, Babanuki, ran over excitedly and looked at Ian with great expectation.
Even if it is an artificial devil fruit, it is still a devil fruit!
And according to Lord Ian, except that these fruits cannot be transformed freely, their strength is no different from that of ordinary animal-type devil fruits! What is there to hesitate about? Although ordinary animal-type fruits are not that powerful, they are not something that an ordinary pillar like him can easily touch.
”Pick one.”
Ian said calmly.
”Yes!”
Babanuki rubbed his hands excitedly and stepped forward to carefully look at these artificial devil fruits on the deck.
However, you can’t tell anything just by looking at them. These fruits have different shapes, and even the fruits cultivated with the bloodline factors of the same beast have different appearances.Finally, Babanuki chose a fruit that he liked, and then he couldn’t wait to put it into his mouth.
His mouth was wide open, wide enough to put the whole fruit directly into his mouth.
It was obviously very unpalatable, but Babanuki acted as if he had eaten some delicious food.
Almost at the moment when the fruit entered his stomach, Babanuki’s body began to change. His skin gradually turned into navy blue and grew a thick stratum corneum.
His nose began to grow rapidly and turned into a long elephant trunk, and two long tusks extended from his mouth.
Ah? Ian raised his eyebrows.
Is this some kind of wonderful destiny? He turned into an elephant after all.
“Oh oh oh!”
Babanuki let out a strange cry, “Power! I feel the power!”
This guy jumped up vigorously and swung his right foot, “Storm Kick!”
The huge vacuum blade suddenly whistled out and landed on the sea in the distance, cutting a deep gully in the sea.
”Lord Ian!”
Babanuki fell down and knelt on one knee in front of Ian excitedly, “My physique has been greatly enhanced! It’s amazing!”
Ian smiled.
To some extent, artificial devil fruits have some advantages over the serious animal system, that is, they will not be killed before they have time to transform.
”Oh! It feels very interesting?”
The shadow fell, and Solem and Shimier came over and leaned over to look at Babanuki.
“Artificial devil fruit, has human technology reached this level?”
Shimier was surprised.
”How about it,”
Ian asked with a smile, “Do you want to have one? Come to think of it, I have never seen a giant with special abilities.”
”We value our own power more.”
Shimier explained, and then rejected Ian’s proposal, “So Ian, I’ll forget it. If you eat the devil fruit, you won’t be able to hunt the beasts in the sea!”
This guy is a hunting maniac.
”Hehehe! I’m quite interested!”
However, the other person, Solem, said with a smile.
”Oh?”
Ian raised his eyebrows. Will he witness the birth of the Beast Titan today?
”Hehehe!”
Solem rubbed his hands, “Boss, although it is an artificial devil fruit, it should be quite valuable, right?”
Oh, so interested? Ian pulled the corner of his mouth, “I don’t have any idea of selling it to the outside for the time being.”
Let’s meet the internal demand first.
”Is that so.”
Thorem was instantly disappointed, he sighed, “Then forget it, if it’s a powerful superhuman, mythical beast or natural devil fruit, then I can try it.”
You kid still thinks highly of yourself.
However, he is indeed worthy of it.
”Then I’ll help you find it.”
Ian chuckled.
”Hehehe! That’s so generous, boss! Thank you very much!”
Thorem was very happy to be stuffed with Ian’s biscuits. He turned around and looked at the other giants on the deck, “Boys, if you want to eat, stand up!”
The giants looked at each other.
Then, several giants came forward impatiently, “We want to give it a try!”
The giants are a group that pursues power. Although they value their own power more, it is not impossible to rely on external objects occasionally.
Although they can’t swim in the future, it is enough to become stronger!
Ian was of course not stingy and let them choose by themselves.
In the future, the output of artificial devil fruits will only get faster and faster. The first batch took half a year, but the second batch was planted three months ago.
If it weren’t for the fact that the efficiency of converting bloodline factors into seeds is indeed a bit low, the number of artificial devil fruits in the first batch may have exploded now.
But it doesn’t matter. The first batch of artificial devil fruits has proved that they can be put into use normally, so a larger factory is ready to be built. Both Ian and Teacher Kai are ready to speed up the production of artificial devil fruits.
It can be foreseen that in the next few years, the Beast Pirates will organize a large-scale army of capable people.
The giants happily and expectantly ate the fruits they had chosen.
Immediately, seven beast giants appeared in front of everyone.
There were lions, gorillas, tigers, crocodiles…
”Really good!”. ”
Ian chuckled, and it was no problem for him to guest-star as the Beast Titan in the Attack on Titan set next door.
”This is the first time I’ve seen a Titan with special powers!”
Black Maria smiled.
”Let’s test it!”
Yamato was more impatient than anyone else, “How much stronger have you become!”
”Hehehe! Let me do it!”
As the leader of the Titan mercenaries, Solem stepped forward without hesitation, grinning, holding his warhammer and looking around at the seven Beast Titans, “Who wants to fight with me?”
”Me!”
The seven Titans took a step forward at the same time, all with burning eyes.
”Amon, it’s you!”
Solem pointed out a Titan.
”Boss, don’t be scared! ”
A circle of mane grew around Amon’s neck, and he turned into a giant lion. “I am stronger than ever before!”
”Hehe, is that so?”
Solem waved at him, “Then come and show me your strength!”
”Then I’ll come!”
Amon stopped talking nonsense and rushed towards Solem with his battle axe.
Solem raised the shield in his left hand and blocked Amon’s heavy blow.
Amid the explosion, Solem’s expression changed slightly, “I have really become much stronger!”
”Hehe, boss! I told you! I am super strong now! ”
Emon’s free left hand threw a left hook at Solem’s face.
However, Solem just smiled, without dodging, and let Emon’s fist hit him hard in the face.
”Tsk,”
Luo couldn’t help but exclaimed, “It hurts, right?”
There is no muscle or fat on the face to cushion it.
Then, after being hit by such a punch, Solem just leaned back slightly, and his face was twisted to one side, but nothing happened.
”Hehehe! It hurts!”
Solem laughed strangely, and kicked Emon in the stomach, kicking the lion giant directly out, almost falling into the sea.
”It’s indeed become a lot stronger, but you are still far behind.”
Solem was complacent, “If you want to surpass me, you should practice for a few more years!”
”Oh! !”
The giants were cheering for his performance.
Ian was also clapping softly.
The giants like Solem, who are called heroes, are indeed quite different in strength from ordinary giant warriors.
An artificial devil fruit is far from enough to make up for this gap.
No wonder Solem is not interested in artificial devil fruits.
Seeing that there was no hope of challenging the big brother, the beast giants began to consciously compete with their compatriots who did not eat the fruit.
At this time, they showed absolute suppression, and their strength and speed were much stronger than their compatriots.
So, the giants really realized that people The strength of artificial devil fruits.
The eyes of the giants who did not eat devil fruits became fiery when they looked at the artificial devil fruits on the deck.
The final result was that the number of beast titans on the Golden Dragon increased to 28 at once.
Except for the two leaders, Xi Mier and Solem, all the giants evolved into beast titans.
Ian began to worry about one thing. They all became capable people. What if they fell into the sea? With their size, even the fishmen can’t save them? However, the strengthening of the giants has not ended yet.
One day later.
”Oh! Oh! Oh!!! ”
Tholem screamed.
At this time, he was wearing a heavy full-body armor, which wrapped his whole body tightly, and even his eyes were covered with special lenses.
Although the armor was heavy, it fit his body very well, shining silver, and it was extraordinary at first glance.
Like him, there was Himil standing beside him. This fat giant was also wrapped in heavy armor.
”How does it feel?”
Ian looked up at the two of them and asked with a chuckle.
Although time was tight and the output of Quin alloy was limited, it was enough for Wapol to personally tailor two sets of armor for the two giant leaders.
”Great!”
Tholem slapped his hands hard in front of himself, making a banging sound, but the armor on his body was intact, “What a strong armor!”
”And it’s very light! ”
Shimier now transformed into a nimble fat man, jumping around on the deck of the Golden Dragon, “It won’t affect our activities at all.! What an amazing technology! ”
No, although Quinn alloy is indeed very light, it is not light at all for such an exaggerated scale. It’s just that your strength is too exaggerated.
Ian chuckled, “This is just a prototype. In the future, I will ask them to add various power-assisting devices to the armor and equip it with various weapons. ”
These two sets of armor are not equipped with weapons.
As for melee weapons, the weapons of the giants are already sophisticated enough, and there is no need to make new ones.
As for the long-range weapons, Ian does not think that Uncle Quinn can now make long-range weapons stronger than the two giants’ tyrants.
For the two giant leaders, armor that can increase their body defense capabilities is enough.
However, heavy armor will definitely affect their mobility to a certain extent, although Shimier said it would not.
Otherwise, let them learn the six styles? Maybe they can also learn domineering.
”Now, there is nothing to be afraid of! ”
Tholem clenched his fists and laughed.
Ian nodded slightly with satisfaction.
Twenty-eight beast giants, plus two giant leaders wearing heavy armor, what else can stop them on the battlefield?
However, it will take some time for all the giants to wear heavy armor.
The factory that manufactures Quin alloy is still under construction, and this metal has not yet started mass production.
Just these two sets of armor almost emptied Uncle Quinn’s inventory.
After that, it’s time to return to Beehive Island.
Since I have decided to act, I certainly can’t stay in Wano Country for too long. The purpose of this trip back has been perfectly achieved.
However When he came, there was only one ship, the Golden Flying Dragon, but when he left, Ian left with a fleet carrying more than 10,000 Beasts Pirates who were willing to follow him.
Among them were quite a few pillars, and Ian distributed the remaining artificial devil fruits of the giants to them.
Although it was an act, the fact was that the Beasts Pirates had split at this time. According to the geographical location of Wano Country and Beehive Island, the two parts can be called West Hundred and East Hundred.
Of course, the news soon reached the ears of the World Government.
”As soon as Ian returned to Onigashima, he challenged Kaido, and the Beasts Pirates split. A large number of pirates chose to follow Ian to fight Kaido!”
”Although it was nominally an exercise, both sides almost went all out.”
”The battle between Ian and Kaido almost destroyed the entire Onigashima, and finally chose to stop without a clear winner.”
”Finally, Ian left Wano Country with the pirates who were willing to follow him and went to Beehive Island. ”
The Five Elders received such a report.
The people who hold the highest power in the world laughed instantly.
”Why didn’t anyone get killed! !”
”Don’t worry, Ian has begun to gain the upper hand, and the cadres under his command are stronger than Kaido’s! There will be another battle when he becomes stronger!”
”By then, only one person will survive!”
That’s what the Five Elders think.
