Pirates: Whitebeard Pirates Creator of All Things Chapter 045

Five months later, inside the Submersible Dragon, Xia Wu’s face was filled with excitement and a hint of nervousness as he stared intently at the massive seven-meter-tall container before him.

【Guardian No. 1 successfully manufactured, acquired feedback skill: Laser Beam】

The System’s prompt echoed in his mind, and Xia Wu sat back in his seat with a sigh of relief, a smile spreading across his face. “Success! I truly am a genius.”

For five months, each monthly sign-in reward had been related to the fusion technology of talismans and artificial humans.

Things like, “Postpartum Care for Artificial Humans,” “Artificial Human Permission Settings,” “How to Unleash the Full Power of Battle-Damaged Talismans?” “The Second and Third Applications of Laser Beams,” “Chip Technology Manufacturing.”

If Xia Wu weren’t as clever and handsome as all you readers, he wouldn’t have been able to master so many scientific technologies.

【Guardian No. 1: Height 6.66 meters, possesses superhuman strength, recovery, speed, and destructive power as a single-unit weapon. After fusing with the battle-damaged Pig Talisman, its eyes and hands can unleash laser beams!

Highest Authority: Xia Wu】

Just as Xia Wu was admiring his creation, the Submersible Dragon indicated that two people had entered.

“Yo, what brings you old-timer to my humble abode?” Xia Wu instructed Guardian No. 1 to remain silent and await orders. He then went outside the lab, looking at Whitebeard Newgate, and teasingly said.

“Humble abode? You brat dares to say that? Your Submersible Dragon is almost the size of the Moby Dick,” Whitebeard Newgate rolled his eyes at Xia Wu’s jest.

“Give me a tour, Marco has been praising you to the heavens.”

“Let’s go, I just developed a new special single-unit weapon, it’s guaranteed to surprise you both,” Xia Wu grinned and led the way.

Arriving at the deepest part of the lab, Whitebeard Newgate immediately felt a familiar sense of kinship. As he looked, his eyes met with Submersible Dragon·White inside the experimental device.

“This is?!”

Whitebeard Newgate seemed somewhat disbelieving, looking at Xia Wu, hoping for an explanation.

“Impressive, right? This is a Submersible Dragon clone I created using your bloodline factor, possessing the greatest growth potential as a single-unit weapon!

As long as there are no accidents, it will inherit your talents and strength as it grows to adulthood, eventually even possessing power surpassing yours,” Xia Wu simply introduced the Submersible Dragon’s capabilities.

Having fused with numerous powerful bloodline talents, the Submersible Dragon clone could reach the pinnacle of this world in terms of strength, stamina, recovery, and even destructive power.

“Hoo~” After hearing Xia Wu’s explanation, Whitebeard Newgate looked at Xia Wu’s still-youthful face with a complex gaze, his heart feeling as if it had gone through a magnitude ten earthquake and tsunami.

He hadn’t expected that even his exaggerated imagination wouldn’t be enough. This brat he had watched grow up was gradually gaining the power to destroy the world.

“As expected of the man this old man has his eye on, not bad, Gura Rarara Rarara.”

“Tch, Old Man always likes to pat himself on the back,” Marco muttered under his breath.

“Bonk”

“That hurts~థ౪థ”

“Hmph, that’s a punishment of love, for you to slander this old man to his face.”

Whitebeard’s punch caused excruciating pain, and Marco immediately became obedient, squatting in the corner with his pineapple head in his hands, drawing circles with teary eyes.

“Wait, why am I Number Two? Who’s Number One?!”

Whitebeard suddenly thought of something, looking at Xia Wu with a displeased expression.

“Bonk”

“Hiss~ Old Man, you actually used Conqueror’s Haki infused armament on me?”

Xia Wu rubbed the increasingly large bump on his head, shouting angrily, “Are you trying to kill me?”

“Hmph, that’s the price for disrespecting your Old Man.”

“Old Man, you just wait, hiss, that really hurts (っ╥╯﹏╰╥c)”

“Alright, alright, I didn’t even use much force, is it really that exaggerated?” Whitebeard Newgate looked at Xia Wu’s exaggerated reaction and couldn’t help but laugh.

“＜(｀^´)＞”

Five minutes later, Xia Wu led Whitebeard and Marco to Guardian No. 1.

“Wu-ge, is this the new weapon you were talking about? It’s so tall,” Marco’s eyes widened the moment he saw the Guardian. He trotted over and began to explore it, marveling at its special body structure.

“That’s right, I plan to take it out for a combat exercise,” Xia Wu looked at Whitebeard Newgate and said.

“Combat exercise?!”

“That’s right, research funds have been lacking recently, I plan to borrow some berries from a wealthy patron,” Xia Wu’s tone was very serious, causing Whitebeard Newgate’s old face to twitch. This borrowing of money, I’m afraid, will be a loan with no return.

“I plan to form a special squad called Shadow, entirely composed of artificial humans. I can give you two certain permissions.”

Looking at Xia Wu, full of passion and describing his future plans with excitement, Whitebeard Newgate inexplicably felt an unprecedented sense of security. This was the feeling of family he wanted.

“Go ahead and do it, with the Whitebeard Pirates’ flag on your back, I’ll bear all the consequences!” Whitebeard Newgate said with a serious expression.

Whitebeard knew very well that the appearance of this power would definitely attract the World Government’s attention, and many troubles would come then.

“Don’t worry, Old Man, I won’t be manufacturing too many Guardians for now. As long as you two keep it a secret, no one will know about this,” Xia Wu waved his hand. The current Whitebeard Pirates were very safe, and the Guardians’ main role was to be laborers, transporting some experimental materials.

What Xia Wu needed to do now was to hoard food and slowly rise to power~

Gather all the wealth and resources he could, in preparation for unforeseen circumstances.

Two and a half hours later, Xia Wu sent Whitebeard and Marco away from the Submersible Dragon, and handed over the weapons that the Whitebeard Pirates members had commissioned to be made during the previous period to Marco to take away.

“Engage navigation mode, destination: MADS Base!”

Based on the information he had searched for some time ago, Xia Wu had learned the general location of the illegal scientific research institute led by Vegapunk, located on an island within the territory controlled by the Dark King, Loan Shark King, Du Feld. During this time, the Whitebeard Pirates had also been traveling in that direction, and according to the sea chart, they were now only two islands away.

“My treasures, here I come, Ge!”

In the deep, dark sea, a burst of extremely excited Uchiha laughter echoed from the Submersible Dragon, frightening many sea beasts into fleeing.

Under a reef, a fish-man stared blankly at the jet-black and unusually huge Submersible Dragon, flashing with dazzling light, like a pair of large lantern eyes, too scared to move, cold sweat pouring down.

“Monster, monster, Mama, I want to go home, I’ll go back to Fish-Man Island and never sneak out to play again, Wuwuwu~”
