Chapter 29: Payment for Knowledge! [+1]

Leo finished speaking, and the room instantly fell silent.

Only the TV continued playing, "I am Peppa Pig, and this is my dad...".

Leo, with a dry mouth, came to his senses and realized he might have overdone his performance.

But perhaps Garp, the old fool, hadn't noticed.

He glanced down tentatively and was surprised to find Garp sitting on a chair with tears in his eyes, silent.

Garp slowly stood up and gave Leo a solemn military salute.

"It turns out that Your Excellency Leo has such lofty ambitions!"

"I, Vice Admiral Garp of the Marine, would like to pay my highest respect to you on behalf of all the creatures in this world!"

It was clear he had just experienced a sense of emptiness and truly believed Leo's words!

That feeling of despair and helplessness is something only those who have experienced it can understand!

Garp couldn't imagine...

If his world collapsed one day, what would happen to the hundreds of millions of creatures in this world?

This salute was a tribute he paid to the great dimensional merchants and the Transdimensional Chamber of Commerce on behalf of the world.

"..."

Leo suddenly coughed twice.

As expected of Luffy's biological grandfather, he believed it so easily!

A strong sense of guilt suddenly surged into Leo's heart.

Was he bullying an honest person?

It shouldn't count...

He was just doing what every businessman would do—packaging his products, that's all!

"Ahem." Leo cleared his throat sheepishly and motioned for Garp to sit down and chat slowly.

"I'm glad you have such an understanding."

"In that case, I hope you can support my work more in the future."

"The more transactions we have, the greater the volume, and the stronger the promotion of world vitality. Also no need to be serious. Just call me Sir Leo."

"This..."

When it came to the transaction, Garp looked a little embarrassed. He pressed his cheek and said apologetically:

"I'm so sorry, Sr. Leo, I didn't bring any Berries with me on this voyage."

"But I can go back and apply to the headquarters to conduct transactions with you in the name of the Marine Navy!"

Garp had also heard about Ace's Charizard.

He believed that if Sengoku knew that berries could obtain such powerful combat power, he would definitely allocate a large amount of military expenditures to trade with Leo!

In this way, the Navy gains powerful combat power, and the world gains more vitality.

Kill two birds with one stone!

However, Leo's heart suddenly skipped a beat when he heard that Garp didn't bring any Berries with him.

Navy military spending?

Although this sounded very tempting, who knew who would come to him next time, whether it would be the Navy's business or the government's agents!

When it comes to disappointing people, those Dracos never disappoint!

If they learned that there were magical creatures like Pokémon in the world, wouldn't they immediately send three Navy Admirals to rob him!?

What's more, a customer is already in front of him.

If he didn't cheat Garp, Leo's conscience would hurt!

But he had just asked the system to confirm that the owners of the battleship outside were not Garp but the Navy.

Even if Leo wanted Garp to dismantle two cannons for trade, he couldn't do it.

"Can't this order be done?"

Leo, refusing to give up, used the system's function to scan Garp's body again.

Maybe this old man has the habit of wearing gold pants...

But suddenly, Leo's eyes stopped and focused on Garp's chest.

Immediately, he smiled brightly:

"Mr. Garp, transactions don't necessarily require the use of Berries. Items or props of equal value can also be traded!"

"For example, that small notebook on your chest!"

Leo pointed with a smile.

"Notebook?" Garp was stunned for a moment, then slowly took out an extremely ordinary small notebook from the inner pocket of his clothes.

"Is this what Sir Leo is talking about?"

"Yes, that's it!" Leo nodded.

  Although he doesn't know what this is, under the system's detection, this notebook can be redeemed for 10,000 points!

  In other words, this small notebook is worth up to 5 Billion Baileys!

  On the other hand, Garp, with a novel look on his face, was looking at the notes from left to right.

  After a long time, he suddenly said with enlightenment:

  "Oh! I remembered it!"

  "Isn't this the six style training experience that the old guy Zephyr asked me to write in order to enrich the training camp teaching materials? I forgot to give it to him."

  "Can this thing be exchanged for points?"

  Garp put his notebook on the table in front of Leo and asked curiously.

  After hearing what Garp said, Leo was also slightly surprised.

  Unexpectedly, the system is actually a master who is willing to pay for knowledge!

  He quickly inquired about it from the system.

  Only then did he realize that some valuable knowledge can also be redeemed for points in the system.

  It's just that the same knowledge can only be redeemed once, and duplicates will be invalid.

  It's true that if Garp's notebook was put up for auction in an auction house, the price would probably be higher than lower.

  All thoughts flashed through Leo's mind, and there was no hesitation on his face.

  Smiling, he opened the notebook and saw a bunch of messy writing and drawings inside.

  With Garp's ability, it is really difficult for him to write these things.

  If it were written by someone more knowledgeable, the value would probably be higher.

  Suddenly!

  Leo suddenly thought of something, with a mysterious smile on his face.

  He closed the small notebook and answered Garp's question.

  "Mr. Garp, it is not the notebook that is valuable, but the content inside."

  "I wonder if you are interested in trading your memory?"

  "Memory? How do you trade memories?" Garp was stunned.

  Leo explained: "It's very simple. It's just to copy the valuable parts of your memory, such as the insights of cultivation, combat experience, etc., and use them as valuable items to redeem points. And because it's just a copy, so it will not have any impact on your original memory, you can rest assured about this."

  "This..."

  Although Garp knew that there were many Devil Fruits with strange abilities, Leo's words still seemed unbelievable.

  But he is single-minded, but there is something good about him.

  Once he believes in someone, he will believe in him forever.

  "If possible, that would be great! I am willing to trade in this way, Sir. Leo!"

  Garp geared up, as if thinking about which of his memories could be sold at a high price.

  "Then, the transaction begins!"

  Leo snapped his fingers excitedly, and in an instant, a strange light wave suddenly shot into Garp's brain.

  His eyes instantly became glazed over.

  A large number of memory fragments poured out of his temples like a slideshow.

  This is part of the ability of the memory devil fruit that Leo modelled using points.

  "The points are limited, so you can't delay for too long!"

  This ability is charged based on time, and he must solve it quickly.

  Leo quickly searched through Garp's memory and insights. There were only two main goals: the cultivation and application of haki energy, and the cultivation and improvement of the six postures!

  Under the influence of omnipotent points, these memories suddenly turned into a faint stream of light, condensed into a shiny ball, and fell into Leo's hands.

  "Fuuu… The ability consumes 200 points, and the copy consumes 100 points. Fortunately, it's not that long."

  Leo sighed, and immediately used the system's function to detect the value of the ball of light in front of him...

  "One...ten...hundred ...Thousands...Ten thousand…Million….Billions!!!"

  "Holy darling! This knowledge is actually worth 100,000 points! If converted into Bailey, that's 5 Billion!"

  As expected of a man worthy of becoming Roger and Whitebeard's rival!

  Leo glanced at Garp, whose eyes had been dull for a long time, like a demented old man.

  This time, he made a lot of money! ! !
