Chapter 294 Exchanging Information

 After Su Xiao demonstrated the effect of the alchemical bomb with an expressionless face, Kizaru took the alchemical bomb and experimented with it. He was quite satisfied with its power.

So Kizaru briefly introduced the two people beside him to Su Xiao.

"This is Dr. Vegapunk and Dr. Huiyao. They are very interested in your bomb technology."

Su Xiao kept his expression blank, glanced at the three people, and seeing Chi Yao's polite smile, Su Xiao simply ignored him and nodded slightly.

"Hello, I'm Bai Ye."

Chi Yao nodded slightly, as if in a polite response.

"Hello, Bai Ye. I'm Hui Yao."

Vegapunk immediately stepped forward, looked at Su Xiao, and asked excitedly.

"What kind of technology is that sticky bomb? That's beyond the realm of science, right? Is it genetic mysticism like the devil fruit?"

Su Xiao was slightly stunned, and then briefly explained alchemy.

"No, that's alchemy. Alchemy is..."

Unfortunately, before Su Xiao could finish his words, he was interrupted by Kizaru, who opened the door of the research institute and reminded him.

"Dr. Vegapunk, Mr. Bai Ye, it's really inappropriate to stand outside the door. Let's discuss academic issues in the laboratory, okay?"

Vegapunk and Su Xiao looked at each other and nodded in agreement with Kizaru's statement.

Then the three of them returned to the interior of the research institute. Along the way, Su Xiao and Chi Yao remained like strangers who had just met, and did not reveal the truth that they knew each other.

Huang Yuan brought Su Xiao to a laboratory set up for him, which was located right next to Chi Yao's laboratory.

The locations of the three people's laboratories are distributed: Vegapunk, Kong, Chi Yao, Kong, and Su Xiao in order, with an empty room between each person's laboratory as a buffer.

After arriving at the laboratory, Vegapunk quickly and enthusiastically introduced the various equipment in the laboratory to Su Xiao, and started discussing alchemy.

Su Xiao paused and gave a general summary of alchemy.

"So alchemy is not entirely mystical. That is a common misconception among outsiders. Alchemy is the exploration of nature through the human body."

As Vegapunk and Su Xiao were chatting, Vegapunk pulled Chi Yao, who was standing aside watching the show, into the discussion.

"Gray Yao, I remember you said before that Magic Rune Science is also mankind's exploration of the laws of the world, right? It seems that no matter what kind of technology it is, its starting point is extremely similar!"

Since Vegapunk said so, Chi Yao had no choice but to join this academic discussion, showing his curiosity and thirst for knowledge as a scientific researcher.

Kizaru and Tina, who were standing at the door of the laboratory guarding the three people, felt a little numb. What Chi Yao and the other two said was like a mystery to them, not to mention that the effect was tripled now!

Kizaru was the first to leave, and before leaving, he asked Tina to keep an eye on them. He left Tina, who had a look of despair on her face, alone in the laboratory, being devastated by knowledge.

Two hours later, Tina had fallen into a state of "knowledge overdose" with dull eyes.

Chi Yao glanced at Tina, then looked at Lidya Su, ready to end the discussion among the three.

Lidya Su cleared his throat and coughed lightly.

"Hey, guys, it's almost time. I need to get ready and get to work."

Although Vegapunk was still a little unsatisfied, as he only had a general understanding of alchemy and magic runes, he still respected Su Xiao's decision.

Before leaving, Vegapunk mentioned this. After discussion, he recognized Su Xiao's academic ability and added the suffix of Doctor to his title.

"By the way, Dr. Bai Ye, if you feel that you are running low on energy during the experiment, you can drink the T3 potion next to the experimental table to help restore your energy."

Su Xiao was a little surprised. He picked up a tube of T3 potion on the experimental table and checked the information. He sighed, "This is a high-level derivative world, and there is a potion that restores mana."

Seeing that Su Xiao was about to start making alchemical bombs, Chi Yao also chose to return to his laboratory to continue gaining experience.

In the next two days, Vegapunk, Chi Yao and Su Xiao often discussed academic issues together. Through such exchanges, the two were considered "colleagues", and Chi Yao and Su Xiao had at least become friends on the surface.

While discussing academic issues, Chi Yao also used the sound transmission technique to exchange information with Su Xiao.

Su Xiao's "landing point" was still near the Seven Water City. He intercepted a passing pirate ship and went to the Seven Water City. He chose to join the Carrera Company. As a result, he met Crazy Milk from the God Emperor Adventure Group and the two had a fight.

Since the sharpness of Su Xiao's Dragon Slash +10 had reached a new high, the Crazy Milkman was severely beaten up, and the priest robe on his body was almost chopped into pieces by Su Xiao's sword. He was so scared that he took off his equipment directly, and in order to protect his few possessions, he relied on his amazing milk to escape from the sea.

Later, Su Xiao took advantage of his injury to coincidentally control CP9 member Khalifa. Su Xiao did not elaborate on what happened next, after all, it was related to his own income.

Chi Yao could also guess that it was simply that the World Government had taken a fancy to Su Xiao's alchemical bomb and made Su Xiao a "CP0 researcher."

In general, because Chi Yao kicked the revolver to another world, Su Xiao's opponents changed, and the rest of the developments proceeded as usual without any additional interference.

Chi Yao also briefly explained his situation in the One Piece world, mainly his experiences in the Kingdom of Terra, but Chi Yao temporarily concealed the hidden mission he had received. After all, he was still in the navy's secret base, and talking about ancient civilizations and overthrowing the world government here was really a bit suicidal.

When Su Xiao heard Chi Yao say that he had harvested a large number of high-quality round Yang stones, his eyes lit up.

Su Xiao's tone was calm, but the hint of expectation hidden in it could not be hidden from Chi Yao, who was able to perceive emotions.

"You said those round sun stones are all high-quality solar system ores?"

Seeing Su Xiao asking this question, Chi Yao knew that the other party had upgraded "Alchemical Bomb Manufacturing" to the maximum level and unlocked the formula of "Sun God Apollo".

Chi Yao nodded, pointed to the camera in the laboratory and gave a reminder.

"Yes, but we are still in the Navy's secret base."

Su Xiao understood and did not continue to ask about the Yuanyang Stone, but changed the topic to another direction.

"What is your main mission? If you don't want to say it, you don't have to."

Chi Yao was quite frank about this issue. After all, intelligence was one of the foundations of cooperation, and the final main mission of most of the contractors in the One Piece world was the [Judicial Island Decisive Battle].

"It is to participate in the decisive battle on Judicial Island and obtain the design drawings of the ancient weapon Pluto."

Chi Yao's words made Su Xiao slightly stunned, and he clenched his hands for a moment. Without knowing that the design drawings could be subdivided, he subconsciously thought that Chi Yao would be his competitor.

Chi Yao naturally saw Su Xiao's subtle performance, and Chi Yao conveyed it.

"For this kind of mission to obtain a certain item, the park actually has a minimum guarantee rule, which is that only a part of the specific item is required. Although you cannot obtain the mission reward, you can be exempted from the mission penalty."

Looking at Chi Yao's clear eyes, Su Xiao couldn't help but feel that the other party seemed to have guessed that he had already obtained the Pluto design drawings in advance.

 First update.
