"Ah? Dr. Vegapunk, are you... talking to me?"

After Vega Punk finished speaking, how long did it take for him to come back to his senses? Deborah pointed to himself and asked, but thinking about it, who could Vega Punk say this to? So she opened her mouth and said:

"However, Doctor, I already have a family and children. Although this place allows me to continue to improve, I am no longer satisfied with this kind of happiness."

Vegapunk paused after hearing the words, then nodded helplessly, and said, "Yes, it's you."

Skyler also asked at this time: "Hey! Vega Punk, what were my thoughts just now? Did you hear it?"

Hearing this, Vegapunk's original intention to turn around stopped. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "It's very thoughtful, very good, keep this spirituality."

"..." Skyler felt that Vegapunk was perfunctory, so he asked: "Then can you help me design the modification? After all, you should know your work very well, right?"

"Others do better than me when it comes to installing batteries. As for the kinetic energy recovery you mentioned about the extended range... Keep this spirituality."

Vegapunk squeezed out a smile and turned to leave after speaking. Skyler frowned and asked, "Is there a problem?"

"Well... It's good to have an idea. It's better to have an idea that can't be realized, or has no value to realize. It's better than having an empty head and maintaining this spirituality."

Showing an embarrassed yet polite smile, Vegapunk repeated it again, but Skyler reached out and grabbed his clothes directly and said, "Tell me, are you afraid of being overtaken by a layman like me?"

"..." Hearing Skyler's wild words, Vega Punk's smile also restrained, and after thinking about it, he said: "Skyler, for a layman who doesn't understand industry, your Spirituality is precious.

Because most people don't, even some people in the industry, some researchers, they don't have fresh and spiritual ideas.

But...industry is not driven by ideas, but by practice, those ways of extending the range you said...If you live in a world that allows the existence of perpetual motion machines, it may be possible, but here no.

Let me tell you what you said. For example, can the rotating outer turbine be transformed into a hydroelectric generator? Sure, but..."

Seeing Skyler's smile, Vegapunk immediately took a turning point. Seeing that Skyler's smile subsided, he continued:

"But have you ever thought that a hydroelectric generator, or whatever kind of generator it is, is essentially a process of energy-for-energy, and there are still a lot of losses in this process.

Your idea is ideal, but think about the engine that transmits energy to drive the motor of the outer wheel. During this process, the speed of the outer wheel is linked to the energy consumption.

There are so many components to make the outer wheel move faster, but you want to use the rotating outer wheel to generate electricity. Do you want to fight within this system? "

After Vegapunk finished speaking, looking at Skyler's puzzled appearance, he opened his mouth with difficulty and asked, "You don't know that using the outer wheel to generate electricity will cause an additional energy loss to the rotation of the outer wheel, right?"

"I remember now."

Skyler suddenly realized, nodded, but quickly asked: "How about transforming the outer wheel into a waterwheel? Then use the principle of falling water to generate electricity? Just like a dam?"

"Isn't energy needed to transport water to a high place? I know what you have imagined, and it can indeed generate some electricity, but the cost is that the original energy consumption is increased, and the speed of the warship is reduced at the same time.

If you're willing to accept it, just to send out some electricity that might be...just enough to light a light bulb, then I have no problem.

Moreover, if it is a merchant ship, or other means of transportation on land, you may be able to use your ideas to design a system for recovering kinetic energy to extend the range.

But warships, from the very beginning of their design, are not for energy saving, but for performance.

Of course, I'm not trying to deny you, I still hope that you can maintain your spirituality, which is a person's most precious treasure. Never accept yourself with an empty head. "

Vegapunk's painstaking expression reminded Deborah on the side of the way Vegapunk taught them when he was a child, but... Vegapunk didn't have such patience at that time.

In other words, Deborah had never seen Vegapunk be so patient with anyone. For a moment, Deborah was even envious. After all, she was one of the most outstanding students Vegapunk said. receive this privileged treatment.

Skyler didn't know that his treatment was a privileged level, he just scratched his head, showing a disappointed look, and said, "I understand, if there is no effective way to extend the range, do you have a better battery here? ?

Like a nuclear reactor or something? It is best to have a mini-sized one, which is about the size of an Apple, enough for a warship to run for several weeks. If such batteries can fill a room, I am afraid that the warship can never be charged, right? "

"I appreciate that you can know about nuclear reactors, but...the Jerma comic strip in the North Sea, you don't even dare to think about it."

Vegapunk shook his head, but still couldn't stand it and left. In Vegapunk's own impression, the best thing about energy storage was Germa's Gage.

Vegapunk, who worked with Gage, knew how good he was in the field of miniature energy storage devices, but... even Gage couldn't have developed the kind of nuclear reactor that Skyler said. .

However... it is possible to go back and review Jiazhi's technology. After all, not only warships need energy storage equipment, but the large number of pacifists who are about to put into use also need better energy storage equipment in order to play a greater role.

If you can reverse the technology of Gage in energy storage and improve it yourself, maybe it is really possible to solve the problem of insufficient energy storage for warships and pacifists.

Although Skyler doesn't understand any technology, he is very spiritual. If he is not too humble and easily makes him angry, he can communicate more to inspire his own inspiration.

Seeing Vegapunk leaving in a hurry, Skyler shrugged and said, "Isn't this Vegapunk too good at chatting?"

"Well... Well, Dr. Vegapunk should have something to do."

Deborah also spoke for Vega Punk at this time, Skyler said indifferently: "Forget it, Deborah, the next thing about the transformation of the warship is left to you."

"Okay, Lieutenant General Skyler, but... Lieutenant General Skyler, I suggest modifying the survival craft on the warship as well. After all, small boats are the best fit for this engine module."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. If you have any doubts about the warship, just ask Nurkic."

After Skyler finished speaking, he returned to the warship. Anyway, it was just a renovation. There was no need to dismantle the warship. Moreover, based on Skyler's understanding of Bergapunk and others, they probably would not give themselves and their detachment. Arrange accommodation.

Fortunately, Skyler was used to the life on the warship, so she would not be able to get used to it if she went back to sleep on land.

The next morning, when Skyler woke up and walked out of his cabin, he found that part of the interior of the warship had been disassembled. After washing and walking out of the cabin, he found that the entire warship was elevated and out of the sea.

Scratching his head, Skyler sat on his chair, thinking about whether to go to the lab today to see if he could get some good stuff from the store, when Nurkic, who was chatting with Deborah not far away, suddenly frowned.

"Blu~Blu~Blu~"

The phone bug rang on his body, he took it out and, as he expected, the ringing phone bug belonged to Skyler, Deborah also took the initiative to say at this time: "Go ahead, I can work here too. already."

Nurkic nodded, trotted to Skyler's side, and then said, "Sir, call."

Skyler took the phone bug and said, "I suddenly want to eat some fried food today. Tell Leon."

"Blu~Blu~"

The phone bug was still thinking about it, Nurkic nodded and said, "Well, then I'll go to inform Leon, by the way, sir... an official call."

Speaking, Nurkic also pointed to the phone bug Skyler had already answered, Skyler replied, "Got it."

After she finished speaking, she reached out and answered the phone bug and asked, "Wai! Who is it?"

"Lieutenant General Skyler, I'm Luo."

The phone bug suddenly had two dark circles under his eyes, and then came Luo's voice, Skyler nodded and said, "Didn't you go to Pang Island? Something happened?"

"Yes, I came to Punk Hassad, and then... yes, something happened."

Punk Hazard Island, an underground research room, Luo looked at the surrounding scene and said, "I found a human giant experiment on Pang Island, and I see signs that it was only recently built.

And I also found some signs of the Beast Pirates. I suspect that Caesar Courant, who was rescued by the Beast Kaido before, returned to Punk Hassad and used Punk Hassad's equipment to conduct illegal experiments. "

A few days ago, he received an order from the headquarters to assist Smoker in capturing the Straw Hat gang. Before leaving, he also asked Skyler for instructions.

After all, he could see that Luffy still had something to do with the navy, and the person most likely to know was Skyler, but Skyler's opinion was to do what he should do.

At most, he thought that he would come to Pangdao to help Smoker and the Straw Hats fight, but Luo didn't expect that there would be "surprises" that he couldn't imagine in this Pangdao.

Although Pang Island was destroyed in the battle between Sakaski and Kuzan two years ago, the underground infrastructure was not seriously damaged, and Vega Punk didn't bother to remove those "outdated" equipment.

Therefore, Pang Dao's experimental base has the basis for being restarted, and after his investigation in the past two days, he has probably figured out some situations.

It was precisely because of his understanding of the changes in Pang Dao that Luo Cai considered whether to "capture" the Straw Hat gang according to the order, or to continue to investigate the human giant experiment and the conspiracy of the Beast Pirates.

In terms of the impact of the event, it is obvious that the latter is more important, but he did not receive the task in this regard, and at the same time, he would not report to the headquarters immediately.

Because Luo knew that once he reported to the headquarters, he would lose the possibility of tracking it down. After all, to put it horribly, with his current strength, it was difficult for the headquarters to believe that he could handle the matter of the Beast Pirates.

However, other current levels do not have the autonomy to act. Although they are lieutenant generals, they are more functional lieutenant generals, mainly playing an auxiliary role.

Therefore, he called Skyler's side, very simple, because Skyler has the autonomy of action and has a high enough status. If Skyler can support him to investigate, then...

Luo took a deep breath and looked at the experimental equipment around him, with disgust in his eyes.

As a doctor, he would never allow such experiments that violated medical ethics and human ethics to exist. He wanted to eliminate all of this with his own hands, even if he had to fight beasts.

When Skyler heard Luo's news, he also patted his forehead to wake him up quickly from the state he had just woken up from, and at the same time muttered: "Recently, I really forgot about Kaido. "

After thinking about it, Skyler said to Nurkic, who came back, "Nurkic, can we go now?"

Hearing this, Nurkic also became solemn in an instant. He glanced at the phone bug in Skyler's hand and knew that something major had happened, but... he said:

"Sir, even if you give up the engine modification now, it will take at least a day to set off."

"Is that so..."

Skyler thought for a while, and then said to the phone bug: "Luo, you go to Smoker, temporarily give up the pursuit of the Straw Hats, and find out about the illegal experiment on Pang Island as soon as possible.

If you encounter a strong enemy, call for support directly. General Fujitora and General Midori are still at the headquarters, so it shouldn't take much time in the past.

The warship on my side is undergoing renovation. Once the renovation is completed, I will also go over to check the situation. "

Skyler hadn't thought about whether this was not in line with the process. After all, the Zhanye Detachment had no blood to follow the process in a proper way.

What can be done directly, take a few more steps for a process, or even give up the task, who can be willing to do such a thing? Therefore, she directly supported Luo to continue the investigation.

And Luo also reported to her precisely because he guessed her thoughts. At this time, when he heard Skyler's permission, Luo showed a smile, nodded solemnly, and said:

"Yes! Lieutenant General Skyler! I will find out all this as soon as possible!"

Putting down the phone bug, Luo breathed a sigh of relief, he bet right, he got the opportunity to continue the investigation, but when he raised his hand and glanced around, the smile that had not yet emerged was directly stillborn.

After all, this is not something to be happy about. If he investigates further, he may find out many unknown conspiracies, and he may also encounter some enemies that he cannot yet deal with.

Not far away, Bei Bo, who was instructing the team to classify the items found in the search, saw Luo put down the phone and ran over and said, "Sir, what should we do now?"

Hearing this, Luo rubbed his dark circles and said, "Let's check it out! By the way... let Ace come over, although nothing may happen, but if they are there, the trouble will be much less. ."

After speaking, Luo added in his heart, "If there is no trouble, then Ace is the biggest trouble." Of course, at this time, he was asking for Ace's help, so naturally he wouldn't say anything to hurt him.

Bepo nodded, turned around and started to contact Ace, while Luo checked around.

It is not the first time for him to come to Pangdao. When Kaido invaded Pangdao before, he had already been there once and participated in the rescue mission, so he was quite familiar with this place.

Although some renovations have been carried out here, the previous battle between Sakaski and Kuzan also seriously damaged the structure of Pang Island, but the overall layout has not changed.

"Blu~Blu~Blu~"

Just as Luo Cha was looking around, the phone worm on him suddenly rang, and he connected it directly. Before asking, there was a voice over there.

"Luo, I'm Smoke, have you arrived in Punk Hassad? The line was busy just now."

"Lieutenant General Smog? I arrived in Punk Hassad two days ago, and I'm investigating. How is the situation on your side?"

After Luo finished speaking, Smoker was silent for a while, but listening to his breathing, he seemed to be suppressing his emotions, and then he said:

"I had a battle with the Straw Hats today. During the battle, we lost track of each other. The initial guess is that we escaped from the underground laboratory passage."

Hearing this, Luo said, "Okay, I see, do you know the original layout of Punk Hassad?"

"Know."

"I'm waiting for you at the entrance of Laboratory No. 1. I found a more important target. The Straw Hats may have to put it aside for a while. I'll tell you the specifics when we meet."

The phone worm was silent for a while, and then responded: "Is it a new arrangement from the headquarters? But the straw hat..."

"No, it was Lieutenant General Skyler's arrangement."

Luo interrupted Smaller, he knew that if it was a new order issued by the headquarters, then Smaller might not necessarily implement it immediately, but Skyler was different.

As Luo had guessed, when he heard Skyler's order, Smaller was no longer silent, and he no longer took a deep breath to suppress his anger, but answered clearly: "Okay, I understand, No. 1 See you in the lab."

After all, Smoker cut off the connection, Luo also looked at Bebo who was walking towards him, and asked, "What did Ace say?"

"Ace said..." There was a humanized embarrassment on Bepo Bear's face, and then he said: "Ace said you should call him, or admit that you can't do it without him..."

"I see."

Luo nodded, and the phone worm that had not been put away was dialed again. Seeing this, Bebo asked, "You really asked him?"

"impossible!"

Luo said firmly, at this time, the phone worm also dialed out, and it was connected after a few seconds.

"Wai?! This is the Spade Detachment, and I'm Adjutant Yamato!"

Hearing Yamato's voice, Luo's mouth twitched slightly and said, "I'm Luo, I was in Punk Hazard, and I found the crime scene of the Beast Pirates. Ace seems to be reluctant to come over, so you can ask me what's going on. ."

"What?! That **** Ace actually..."

"Boom! Squeak~~~"

Yamato's voice quickly zoomed away, followed by the sound of the phone bug landing, and the sharp beeping sound also came from the phone bug's mouth, it seemed that the signal was wrong.

At this time, the corners of Luo's mouth curled up, and the curvature of his mouth became larger and larger. How could he be so stupid that he was pitted by Ace?

And that guy Ace actually wanted to trick him, so don't blame him for self-defense.

Bebo also understood Luo's plan at this time, and a smile appeared on the bear's face, one person and one bear looked at each other without saying a word, and then easily led the detachment and rushed towards the No. 1 research institute.

Since the Red Heart Detachment was closer to the No. 1 Research Institute, when Luo and the others arrived, Smog had not yet appeared, but Luo was not in a hurry. According to his calculations, there would be exciting things happening next.

"Blu~Blu~"

That's when Ace should call. He moved his facial muscles and tried his best to make his smile disappear. Luo Cai picked up the phone and deliberately asked, "Hello, I'm Luo, may I ask you?"

"Luo! I'm Ace!"

There was Ace's indignation from the phone bug, and there was some big tongue voice. Luo was very satisfied with the change in Ace's voice. After all, it showed that Yamato was probably greeting Ace's face.

Continuing to endure the unbearable smile, Luo continued to ask: "Ace? Just now Bebo said you didn't plan to come over to help, so I asked Yamato to ask about the situation. What's your decision now?"

"Hu Chi~ Hu Chi~"

Ace's heavy breathing came, and after a while, he roared with a big tongue: "You didn't tell me, this matter has something to do with the Beast Pirates!!"

"Ah? Didn't Bebo say anything?"

Luo pretended to be surprised and asked back, then looked at Bebo and said, "Bebo, didn't you explain this when you contacted Lieutenant General Ace?"

There was an innocent look on Beibo Xiong's face. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com scratched his semi-circular ear and said, "Report sir! I haven't had time to say that Lieutenant General Ace heard that you asked for help, so just let him go. You go and beg him and hang up on me."

"Ah? Is that so? Lieutenant General Ace, did Bepo lie?"

Luo said to the phone bug with a serious face, Ace stopped talking, because... this is indeed a fact.

When he heard that Luo actually had something to ask him, he was overjoyed. He didn't even have time to ask the reason, so he hurriedly wanted to let Luo try. What is the taste of begging.

And it was indeed he who took the initiative to hang up the phone. After all, he was dazed with joy and wanted to be a decisive winner.

Who knows... I actually missed listening to such crucial information. If I could be more patient...

No! That guy Luo, he might not be able to distinguish the priority of the matter, and if Luo really wanted to make it clear, then the phone should not be called Yamato, but himself!

"Luo! You're a bastard! Sigh~"

Ace's angry voice came from the phone bug. After the words were finished, there was a sound of breathing cold air. It was estimated that he was in a hurry, or it was related to the injury.

Luo shrugged, not denying Ace's statement, and it wasn't his fault at all, it was Ace who wanted to embarrass him on purpose, so he said casually:

"Then Lieutenant General Ace, I am in Punk Hazard, waiting for your presence, goodbye."

"asshole!"
