Chapter 222 Do you want to be the king of the world... I'm so sorry.
The so-called chimera means that the individual has two or more types of cells and genes in the body.
The meaning of immunology refers to the coexistence of two or more cell lines with different chromosomal compositions in an organism.
Can tolerate each other, do not produce rejection, and are in a chimeric state with each other.
Sometimes it can also be regarded as the meaning of organisms with different traits in the same organ, which is commonly referred to as intersex people.
People with this condition are often accompanied by symptoms of extreme energy, and sometimes have symptoms of multiple personality disorders.
In short, a chimera is the existence of more than one gene in an individual, which neither exclude nor conflict with each other.
As for whether the disordered symptoms of multiple personalities are related to chimerism, it is relatively unconvincing.
That's what Maud knew about chimeras.
But this knowledge is not necessarily applicable to the world of One Piece. As Luo said, in the past medical history, there have not been many examples of chimeras that can be counted on one hand.
However, in the hunter's world, the existence and phenomenon of chimeras has a certain degree of general awareness.
In a wide variety of organisms, there are even chimeric ants, which can ingest the genetic factors of prey by eating, and then pass on the biological characteristics of the prey to the offspring.
It seems to be a biological manufacturing factory in the sense...
And this ability, in a sense, is very similar to the swallowing fruit in the world of One Piece. It is swallowed, and then different creatures are combined into individuals.
The difference is that chimeric ants pass on the biological factors they eat to their offspring, and the effect of swallowing fruit is more like a transformation ability.
Relying on this knowledge about chimeras, Maud immediately thought of the possibility of using the fruit of surgery to transform a normal person into a chimera when he heard that Blackbeard was a chimera.
The hypothesis he proposed made Luo fall into contemplation.
The fruit of surgery can be said to be the most special existence in the superhuman system. It not only has the ability to operate on the [soul], but also has the ultimate ability to give the body immortality.
In contrast, just using surgery to transform a normal person into a chimera is not impossible in Luo's view.
But no matter how perfect the theory is, the results depend on practice.
"It's possible in theory, but not necessarily in practice."
After pondering, Luo gave Maud a pertinent answer.
"Really... It doesn't matter, start preparing for this research today."
Maude is in high spirits and is looking forward to the final results of this research.
Luo Wenyan nodded.
As long as it can help Maud, he will do his best to complete it.
But from his standpoint and perspective, I really don't understand the significance of this research.
Luo was puzzled by this, and it was only natural.
After all, under the interference of the butterfly Maud...
Although Blackbeard did not miss the Battle of the Top, he was not able to first obtain Whitebeard's shaking fruit ability as in the original book, and then, in front of the whole world, extremely arrogantly displayed the double fruit ability beyond the world's perception.
Without the occurrence of this original incident,
Even if Luo used the surgical fruit to discover the secret of Blackbeard's body, it is impossible to associate this with the double fruit ability.
After the [plot] went berserk, the only person who knew all the details was Maud, the transmigrator.
"Aren't you wondering why I'm doing this seemingly thankless thing?"
Maud saw Luo's doubts and asked a question before Luo threw out his doubts.
Luo Zheng wanted to ask aloud, but he didn't expect that Maud would take the initiative to mention this, so he nodded slowly.
Maud smiled slightly.
"Then have you ever thought that since at least two different genes coexist in the body of a chimera, does it mean that... multiple genes have a high probability of being able to withstand multiple Devil Fruit abilities, no, it should be said... able to Suffer multiple demonic factors."
"Um?"
Luo's eyes shrank sharply, looking at Maud in surprise.
He didn't know what to say for a while, but this reaction just showed that he instinctively agreed with Maud's statement.
"Chimera, dual-fruit ability...?"
After a brief surprise, Luo subconsciously looked at Blackbeard, who was lying unconscious on the ground, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.
Following Luo's line of sight, Maud also looked at Blackbeard.
"Luo, isn't there an excellent guinea pig who can verify the 'hypothesis'? Just feed him a devil fruit, and the result will be immediately obtained."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Luo's reaction, Maud opened the shadow box and took out three Devil Fruits, namely the Sticky Fruit, the Ton-Pressed Fruit, and the Flying Fruit.
He currently has fifteen Devil Fruits in his collection.
If he wanted to use Devil Fruits for experiments, he would naturally have to take out Devil Fruits that he thought were relatively weak in value.
In this way, even if the devil fruit used for the experiment has an accident, it will not feel heartache.
"Take a devil fruit as an experiment, this kind of thing, only Tianlong people can do it..."
Luo Silent looked at the three Devil Fruits that Maud took out from the shadow box, and thought silently in his heart.
Maud looked down at the three Devil Fruits and said to himself, "Sticky Fruit, Ton Pressed Fruit, Fluttering Fruit...Which one do you want to choose?"
The previous owners of these three Devil Fruits were all officials of the Don Quixote family.
In Maud's impression, these former masters developed the power of Devil Fruit to the level of shit.
Needless to say, sticky fruit, a defensive control counterattack type ability that can resist armed attacks, was actually used by Torrepol to stick things and throw things...
The ton pressure fruit is even more outrageous. It is obviously an ability that can greatly increase the attack pressure in close combat, but it was used by the former owner Mahabais to increase his weight as the main attack method.
Finally, the flying fruit...
Being developed by the previous owner is really indescribable.
Maud thinks that it is better to use the ability of flying fruit in the freight business. As long as the ability is used to turn heavy and space-consuming goods into thin kilograms, one shipment can reach others a hundred times.
Money or something, it's better than being so wasted.
"Take the sticky fruit."
Maud pondered for a moment, and finally decided to use the sticky fruit as an experiment.
He put the Fluttering Fruit and the Tumbling Fruit back into the shadow box, and then came to Blackbeard with the Sticky Fruit.
Without Maud's special instructions, Luo already took Blackbeard's heart in his hand, glanced at the film that wrapped the heart, and asked:
"Maud, are there two fruits in the fortress?"
"No, one is enough. If Blackbeard is still alive after eating the sticky fruit, put the second fruit in the film."
Maud looked at the Blackbeard's heart with only one fruit in Luo's hand, and immediately started the experiment.
He rudely stuffed the sticky fruit into Blackbeard's mouth, making sure that part of the pulp had already slid down Blackbeard's throat before stopping.
Then, Maud took two steps back, looked down at Blackbeard, and waited for the result.
Luo also looked at Blackbeard intently.
Soon, half a minute passed, and Blackbeard was safe and sound, and there was no such thing as the legend that after eating two Devil Fruits, he would explode and die.
Seeing this result, Luo's heart stirred up waves.
If the idea comes true, after he thoroughly implements the chimera reconstruction surgery, wouldn't it be...
The more Luo thought about it, the more unable to calm down.
A person with the ability to have multiple Devil Fruit abilities, this kind of thing feels very dreamy just thinking about it.
But now, there is a high probability that it will become a reality.
"Just watch it for a while."
After the results of the experiment came out, to be on the safe side, Maud did not immediately attack Blackbeard, but continued to wait patiently.
Recommend it, it's really good, it's worth installing it for book friends, and it's supported by both Android and Apple phones!
Soon, half an hour later, Blackbeard's body still did not change.
After observing for almost 40 minutes, Maud felt that it was almost the same, so he looked at Luo.
"Okay, let's start the next step."
"it is good."
Luo Wenyan stuffed a second fruit into Blackbeard's heart membrane.
After watching Luo stuff the second fruit into the film, Maud pulled out the autumn water, and the sharp point of the knife hung on Blackbeard's neck.
"I hope you can bring me enough surprises, Blackbeard."
Maud pointed at Blackbeard's vital point with the tip of his autumn water knife, his eyes full of anticipation.
Not only the dark fruit that is about to be obtained, but also the physique experience gain of Blackbeard.
"I don't know if I can successfully condense the tenth physique star frame..."
After Maud whispered a word in his heart, his arm suddenly exerted force and pressed Qiushui down.
puff!
Qiushui plunged into Blackbeard's neck without any hindrance, and blood spurted out in an instant.
Blackbeard, who was in a severe coma, had no reaction at all, even if he was hit with a knife.
Maud looked down at Blackbeard as his life counted down.
After a while, this very ambitious man who turned the world upside down in the original book will completely retire from the stage of the sea.
"Do you want to be the king of the world... I'm so sorry."
Maud stared at Blackbeard's frantically gushing blood, thinking silently in his heart.
The king of the world or the pirate king.
Maud never thought about it.
What he wants is to stand on the top of the world, be free from any threat, do whatever he wants to do, and protect the dreams of his companions...
If you stand at the top of the world, you are the king of the world or the pirate king.
Then he doesn't mind picking up these names.
Gradually, Blackbeard swallowed his last breath in silence.
Maud slowly pulled out Qiushui, flicked his wrist, emptied the blood on the knife, and then returned Qiushui to its sheath.
With a melodious sound of a blade returning to its sheath, Maud closed his eyes and focused.
In the pitch-black field of vision, a hunter's note emitting a rich orange light was quickly revealed.
While appreciating the gain of experience points fed back into his body, Maud focused on the changes in the stars on the cover of Hunter's Notebook.
However, the expected tenth physique star frame did not condense.
To be more precise, the experience value gain brought by Blackbeard only condenses one-fifth of the physique star frame, and there is still more than half of the gap between the star frame and the complete star frame.
In contrast, the benefits in other areas are not as much as expected.
Although the overall profit will be partially nullified by the shunting of swordsmanship, and Blackbeard has not eaten the dark fruit for a long time, so even the demon's ability needs will be shunted away part of the profit.
But this result still disappointed Maud.
"After four nine stars, this sense of 'stagnation' has become more obvious."
"Sure enough, the later stage, the harder it is to improve..."
"However, the abnormal increase in difficulty also shows the strength of Nine Stars and a half."
"And the physique monsters like Charlotte Lingling and Beast Kaido must be at the level of nine and a half stars."
Maud thought to himself.
When Morde checked the experience gain, as Blackbeard's heart stopped beating, the demon soul that resided in it left, and it was not unexpectedly attached to the fruit in the film, slowly turning into dark fruit and sticky Sticky fruit.
Luo Xian watched the Devil Fruit take shape, and then glanced at Maud who was not moving at all, and then took out the Devil Fruit and put it on the table next to it.
After a few seconds.
Maud opened his eyes, looked at the dark fruits and sticky fruits on the table, and couldn't help but smile.
After the dark devil fruit is in the bag, not counting the poisonous fruit and the swollen dragon fruit that are "to be mentioned" in Shiliu and Runti, Maud now holds a total of sixteen devil fruits.
Among these Devil Fruits, there are many Devil Fruits with extremely high ceilings, such as Shock Fruit, Sound Sound Fruit, Mammoth Fruit, Nine-Tailed Fox Fruit, and Childlike Fruit.
If the news of Maud's holding sixteen Devil Fruits spreads out, it's hard to imagine how the whole world would react to him.
However, so many Devil Fruits are really not easy to consume for a while.
Unless Luo's chimera surgery works out...
After that, find a random subject and replicate the experiment on Blackbeard to ensure safety and stability.
Once it's safe to do so, the main players in the team can eat another Devil Fruit.
In that case, it is estimated that the inventory will bottom out soon.
But these are for the future.
Maud shook his head slightly, no longer thinking about it.
"Luo, about the body repair work, you can do it when you have a good rest. You don't need to finish it today."
Maud glanced at Blackbeard and Jack's corpses, and said, "Or hand over this job to Arthur. He used to be an undertaker, and he should be very good at repairing corpses."
"understood."
Luo nodded.
Maud said softly: "That's about it, you go to rest first."
"it is good."
Luo was not hypocritical, he turned around and left, and before leaving, he did not forget to take the bodies of Blackbeard and Jack away.
Maud watched Luo leave the room.
Before finding a suitable shadow, corpses like Blackbeard and Jack can only be put in the freezer to eat ashes.
"Next... I'm busy too."
Maud walked towards the balcony, jumped, and landed in front of the lobby on the first floor of the castle.
At the moment of landing, several eyes gathered on his back.
It was the eyes of Aokiji and the others in the hall.
Maud slowly turned around and met the gazes of Qingzhi and the others, and immediately saw Xi Liu, who was forced into the corner by several bigwigs, who seemed a little embarrassed.
"From today onwards, Shiliu will be regarded as a trainee crew member in our regiment."
"This……"
Everyone was slightly stunned.
Trainee crew? ?
Shiliu was a little helpless, but at least he had an identity that would not be targeted.
"Also, if you guys think Shiliu's performance isn't good, come over and tell me, and I'll kill him right away... um, kick him."
"..."
Shiryu's cheeks trembled slightly.
The venue was terribly quiet.
............
It is rare to link One Piece World and Hunter World, maybe it will bring surprises in the future
