"So... what about those space pirates you beat? And their weapons, did you bring them back?" Vegapunk asked Enel.
As the world's top scientist.
He wanted to study the modified bodies of these space pirates, and also their weapons that Enel said could absorb lightning energy.
"Why would I bring those things?
Their weapons are still on Limitless Land, and their bodies have been turned to ash by my lightning!"
"Mehehehehe!!!" Enel said with a wild laugh.
"That's a pity... but the weapons will do, I want to see how they managed to absorb energy with weapons." Vegapunk was suddenly a little disappointed that the space pirates' bodies were gone, but luckily, their weapons were still there.
"Okay, Vegapunk, let's put the matter of space pirate technology aside for now.
We have more urgent and pressing problems in front of us.
Judging from what Enel said, those space pirates will definitely not give up, and they will definitely come back.
And this time, they will most likely no longer target the distant moon, but will come straight for our Blue Star!
It's clear from Enel's description that these guys may not be strong on their own.
But who can guarantee that they don't have some kind of powerful weapon that can shake the earth?
If that's the case, then if they succeed, we'll be the ones with endless trouble!
You know, this is the planet we live on.
If they really have the ability to destroy this place, it would undoubtedly cause immeasurable damage to us, it would be a terrible loss!
Therefore, Vegapunk, I want to ask you, with your wisdom and research ability, can you design and manufacture a super shield similar to the one on Egghead Island that can tightly wrap around the entire planet?
Only with such an indestructible shield can we ensure that our home is not threatened or harmed by anything from the outside!" Ryuen said with a serious face, staring at Vegapunk with burning eyes, and asking with anticipation.
After Ryuen finished speaking, Vegapunk's tense nerves relaxed all at once, and he took a deep breath to quickly calm himself down.
Because every word Ryuen said deeply touched the most sensitive string in his heart.
Vegapunk couldn't agree more with Ryuen's point of view.
The technological strength of a race that can travel through the vast universe must have reached unimaginable heights.
Such an advanced race may really have powerful weapons like the legendary ancient weapons.
Thinking of this, Vegapunk couldn't help but shudder.
If these alien races used such terrifying weapons to attack their planet, the consequences would be disastrous, and it would undoubtedly bring a catastrophe to the entire planet!
Enel, who was standing aside, was also looking at Ryuen in astonishment. He never expected that Ryuen's plan was so grand and bold.
——To surround the entire planet with protection!
It must be admitted that, given the current situation of Blue Star, this is indeed a brilliant solution.
Just now, Enel had noticed that the island they were on was already tightly wrapped in a transparent shield.
However, after careful observation and thinking, Enel felt a little uneasy.
If this shield only maintains its current strength and scale, it may be difficult to resist the attack of those space pirates.
Vegapunk nodded slightly, with a confident smile on his face, and said slowly:
"With my ability and knowledge, it's not difficult to design such a thing.
But to get it up and running, the energy required is enormous!"
He paused, and continued thoughtfully, "Before finding a suitable and stable energy supply solution, I think Enel's Rumble-Rumble Fruit may be able to solve the urgent need for now.
After all, lightning is one of the most powerful forces in nature, and if used properly, it can have amazing effects.
Of course, besides the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, there is another alternative - Mother Flame.
Although its energy characteristics are different from the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, as long as it is carefully improved and adjusted, it is also expected to meet our needs.
But...".
Speaking of this, Vegapunk frowned, his tone slightly serious, "Whether it is further improving the power of Mother Flame, or achieving effective reduction in size, it is not easy, and the whole process may take some time and effort."
"It doesn't matter, as long as you are confident that you can design it! As for the time, leave it to us to solve." Ryuen said, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell.
He breathed a long sigh of relief and continued to respond, "For now, the matters related to the reporting system can be put aside for a while.
The top priority is to concentrate all our efforts on overcoming the problem of this shield."
In fact, Ryuen had foreseen the possibility of needing to use the special ability of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit when he brought Enel to Egghead Island.
He just didn't expect that Vegapunk's idea was somewhat similar to controlled nuclear fusion, which really surprised and delighted him.
Hearing Ryuen and Vegapunk's words, Enel frowned slightly.
He always felt like he was being tricked.
However, since he had promised Ryuen, he would not go back on his word.
Next, Ryuen continued to communicate with Vegapunk, and also decided on the name of the shield.
Finally, the two decided to call this shield the Sky Dome Defense System!
After finalizing these things, Ryuen immediately headed to Marineford, as he needed to inform Sengoku and Dragon about this in person.
After all, this concerns the entire planet.
And Enel was left on Egghead Island by Ryuen, Vegapunk was very interested in the Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability that Enel possessed.
Moreover, Enel could also help when studying the Sky Dome Defense System.
...
When Ryuen came to Marineford and told Sengoku and others about the space pirates, they were also very shocked.
"I didn't expect that there are pirates even in outer space!" Akainu said with an angry and deep voice.
"It's one problem after another..." Vice Admiral Tsuru said with emotion.
For a time.
All the high-level officials became serious.
