Chapter 648: artificial devil fruit (1/2)
Pirates of Darkness 648 Artificial Devil Fruit
In addition to those chores, Ming Ge is most concerned about the research on artificial devil fruits.
As he guessed, the two or three years that Caesar claimed were simply not enough, and it has now taken more than four years for the results to appear.
This has to be said to be good news. Among the hundreds of newly born artificial devil fruits, a finished product has finally appeared, which is a zero-to-one breakthrough.
Ming Ge immediately put down what he was doing and came to the isolated island north of Dressrosa, Green Bit.
The steel suspension bridge has basically been damaged. In order to prevent people from passing through the suspension bridge to Green Bit, the suspension bridge "accidentally" collapsed three years ago.
Only a small part of the entire long suspension bridge remains.
In the past four years, the underground research institute in Greenbit has undergone great changes, and its scale has expanded several times.
There are factories dedicated to cultivating artificial devil fruits on the island and parts of Dressrosad, and there are also small humans working hard inside.
"Hey la la la! Tenyasha, you are finally here!" The genius scientist with the ghost bloodline kept his body partially elemental and flew in the air. When he saw Brother Doflaming, he greeted him excitedly. .
"Baboon, baboon! Let me see your masterpiece, Caesar!" Brother Ming put his hands in his pockets and walked towards Caesar with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
"No problem, come here, but wait a moment, when I finish recording some data of the artificial devil fruit, I can formally test its effect."
"The experimental product has long been prepared, the one you designated earlier."
This is indeed a masterpiece, a masterpiece across the ages. Caesar's words were very useful to Caesar. He quickly returned to his laboratory. The most striking thing was an apple with a ring pattern.
In addition, there are a bunch of failed products on the side. These failed products also have a lot of effects. The side effects they have can deprive a person of emotion and can only smile, so Doflamingo named it "smile".
This kind of fruit, as a product, is very popular in the underground world, and it is even more popular because of cruelty, which is in short supply.
It took a while for Caesar to record some data, which Brother Ming did not understand, but he was willing to wait.
He knew in his heart that this was still a failure, but it should initially achieve the desired effect, and there would definitely be room for improvement in the future.
At least the production success rate needs to be increased. Only one finished product is born out of hundreds of artificial devil fruits. This number is too low.
"It's time to start, bring the experiment over here." Caesar said to Monet, who was temporarily his assistant. Brother Doflamingo was not really at ease with Caesar. Monet's existence meant that Caesar was monitored. effect.
Although she lost the snow and snow fruit, Doflamingo found her a powerful devil fruit again, in the form of a phantom beast, a harpy. The level in the phantom species is similar to that of a griffin, and it is considered an ordinary one. Phantom species.
After taking a look at Brother Ming and receiving confirmation from Brother Ming, Monet walked out of the laboratory and soon brought a young man with a broken arm.
Seeing Brother Doflamingo, the young man was obviously excited, his body trembled, he bowed his head in front of Brother Doflamingo, and said respectfully, "Young Master!"
"Are you ready? Connor."
"Well, even the sacrifice is worth it." The young man named Connor said seriously.
Connor was Doflamingo's subordinate, expanding for the Don Quixote family, and Connor lost his arm in a war.
With Brother Ming's financial resources, he could buy a robotic hand for him and give him a new lease of life. In Dressrosa, there are not many members of the Tang Quixote family who own a robotic hand.
It happened to happen that Connor was the first experimenter to test the effect of artificial devil fruit.
Since it is a finished product, it must be effective. Brother Ming naturally wants to let his own people eat it.
In the center of the laboratory, there is a huge cylindrical container, and Connor is standing in it, holding an artificial devil fruit in one hand.
"Eat it, maybe your broken arm can be restored."
Connor was already prepared, and without much hesitation, he directly put the artificial devil fruit into his mouth.
It made a crisp sound like eating fruit. Although it looked like an apple, it had no core. Even if it was artificial, it was still a devil fruit.
"Gu dong gu dong!"
After eating the artificial devil fruit, Connor felt his heart beating fast. The next moment, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly felt severe pain all over his body.
Compared with the easy and painless changes that Devil Fruits have on the human body, the genetic modification of artificial Devil Fruits is somewhat violent, which is equivalent to erosion and coverage.
At present, such genetic modification pain cannot be weakened, and subsequent changes may be required.
Moreover, the erosion of human genes by animal lineage factors cannot be eliminated, which also means that this change is irreversible, and it cannot return to its original form like a person with normal animal lineage ability.
This is a normal thing. How to make the artificial devil fruit's modification of human genes can be changed in the dominant and recessive ways. This is the reason why the artificial animal type devil fruit can be compared with the real devil fruit.
His eyes were bloodshot, and the pain caused Connor to keep tapping the glass cover around him, as if this would release some of the pain in his body.
"Uh..." Connor endured the pain, but couldn't help groaning.
The nails were broken due to excessive force, and blood continued to flow out.
Doflamingo's eyes gleamed with information, and he could clearly feel that Connor's breath was increasing.
The wound on the hand is healing quickly, and the bleeding stops quickly, although it may not be obvious.
But this means that no matter what the final effect is, the artificial devil fruit is indeed a success. This is a start, which makes him have more expectations for the next.
What's even more surprising is that Connor's arm was broken, and granulation began to grow, and it continued to heal, as if he wanted to grow a new arm.
His body has changed, and the skin on the lower body has begun to change, turning green and growing scales.
The unknown in the buttocks bulged even more, and it seemed that something was about to grow, it was a tail.
Connor's broken arm is likely to grow back.
"What animal ability did he acquire?" Brother Ming looked at Caesar who was excited.
The artificial devil fruit contains the bloodline factors of various animals, so what kind of animal it will become is actually random, and no one can predict unless the bloodline factors of a specific animal can be used to make an artificial devil fruit.
"Such regenerative abilities are likely to be lizards, which are just right for him." Caesar's research on artificial animal-type Devil Fruits is not short, and he can barely be regarded as an animal expert. Combined with Connor's characteristics, he can guess.
