The remnants of Poneglyphs contain the power of Poneglyphs, which can replace people with the dark power of Poneglyphs, eventually driving them mad and turning them into destructive weapons.
The Poneglyph Seed, on the other hand, is able to provide the implanted individual with a nurturing soil, giving birth to a Poneglyph that can control its own power and retain its sanity. The significance of these two is completely different.
Firstly, the presence or absence of sanity is already the biggest difference. The power that can be exerted with sanity is much stronger than the power exerted without it.
Secondly, Poneglyph remnants only grant some of Poneglyph's power to individuals, while the Poneglyph Seed can regenerate Poneglyph from within the body.
Genichi is currently experimenting, and such experiments inevitably require subjects. Tsukimado is a good choice.
He implanted Poneglyph remnants fused with Shikon Jewel fragments into his body, which is why he was able to revive after being killed by Kenshin.
He needs to observe carefully to see what Tsukimado will ultimately become.
Will it be a sane Poneglyph regeneration? Or an insane demon king?
He believes that if he doesn't use the Poneglyph remnants properly, he will only create someone relatively strong. However, if he can manufacture them into Poneglyph Seeds, he might be able to achieve a level close to that of a character in the tens of millions of character cards.
This time is his attempt. If he fails, he won't mind too much because even if it's just Poneglyph remnants, they should still give Tsukimado immense power, and he can still continue the drama.
Anyway, there's still plenty of time. He's not a scientist, so it's normal for him not to immediately turn Poneglyph remnants into Poneglyph Seeds.
And if he succeeds, it's like gaining another Atrox-level combat power.
So this experiment is necessary.
He reviewed the current members of various forces in the Wano Country.
Wano itself, Marine Headquarters, Black Sect, Kaido...
And Roger has already received information from An about the Wano Country, and it is very likely that he will also go to this country.
"The forces are a bit unbalanced."
He frowned. If that's the case, then Tsukimado's side won't be able to resist the rebels.
In his plan, Tsukimado will be influenced by Poneglyph's power and 'fall into darkness', which won't be too suspicious if he does it himself because in the minds of the Wano people, he is already a demon king, and they won't notice Tsukimado's changes.
So the power around Tsukimado is currently the orthodox military power of Wano, the daimyos of various regions, his own retainers, and the retainers of the generals, combined with Tsukimado's own power slowly enhanced by Poneglyph remnants.
Such power can definitely crush the entire Wano Country, even with Kenshin's help. But once other forces join in, it will be different. An and Roger's pirate crew will definitely stand with the people, and by then, this war may become one-sided.
This won't work because he needs time to fuse the Poneglyph remnants with Tsukimado, and he needs to observe Tsukimado's performance. If he fails too quickly, how can he observe?
It seems that he still needs to provide some assistance to the Tsukimado family...
Genichi thought about suitable candidates...
Maybe...
Suddenly, he had an idea.
What if the Red Alert base vehicle is deployed in the Wano Country?
During this time, he had been looking for a suitable location for his base, but he hadn't found one because the place he was looking for needed to have many people and abundant resources, and such places were already proper countries.
But the Wano Country is very good. Anyway, it is going to erupt into war in his plan, and by then, there won't be a need for generals and daimyos. He could just occupy this place and use it as his base.
Sengoku happens to be in the Wano Country now, so he'll let him find a suitable place first.
...
While Genichi was carrying out his plan, Roger was also thinking.
He had received An's information and knew that a demon lord might appear in the Wano Country.
"Speaking of which..."
Roger thought about the information of the Wano Country in his mind, suddenly saying to Rayleigh, "I remember the samurai in the Wano Country can interpret ancient texts, right?"
Roger had gone to the Water 7 Island a long time ago. That was the final island on the surface. But Roger keenly discovered that there was another place after Water 7, and that was the end of the Grand Line.
And the way to get to that island is to collect the historical texts and interpret the final location from them.
But Roger couldn't interpret ancient texts, nor did anyone on his ship.
"Is this just a rumor?" Rayleigh looked surprised that Roger suddenly asked him this question and didn't understand why Roger would suddenly ask this question.
"I'm wondering if demons have anything to do with that island?" Roger certainly couldn't tell Rayleigh that he received a message from a Marine Admiral saying that a demon lord has descended on the Wano Country. He thought Rayleigh and the others would think he was crazy.
If it wasn't for Roger's personal experience of splitting, watching An split from his body, he wouldn't believe that he had a clone of a Marine Admiral. But that's the fact.
So Roger decided to use ancient texts as a decoy to go to the Wano Country.
"Why would you think that?" Rayleigh was surprised, thought for a moment, and said, "If anything, there might be information related to the blank century in there, but demon history is thousands or tens of thousands of years ago."
"I just suddenly had this idea." Roger didn't know how to explain it, so he could only say forcefully, "Demons have disappeared, but their followers haven't disappeared, and there are treasures left behind, such as the Shikon Jewel. So the final island might not be unrelated to demons. That's why I think we need to speed up."
"We're already looking for that treasure ourselves." Rayleigh still didn't understand, but he also agreed with Roger's idea.
They do need to speed up. After leaving Water 7 Island, they have been trying to find the final island in every possible way. And now demons are changing the world, and even they might die in the coming of demons.
At least...
Reach that place before that day arrives!
He knew that was Roger's long-cherished wish, so Rayleigh wouldn't object.
"Are you suggesting that we go to the Wano Country?"
"Yes!" Roger said loudly. "Go to the Wano Country, then interpret the ancient texts to reach the final destination!"
Apart from dealing with the possible descent of the demon lord, this is indeed Roger's goal.
Find the historical texts, unravel his doubts, what does the "D" really mean, what is the blank century, and does it have any connection with demons?
