"So, did you find something interesting?" Carina asked curiously.
As Shinra manipulated the computer screens, looking at various data, he transferred all of them into the SSD that he discovered in the laboratory as he answered Carina's question. "There are many experiments that people have done on this island."
"Such as?"
"Well, there are many, but the main experiments are about the most dangerous poison gas, a method to turn a human into a giant, and the creation of the artificial devil fruit."
"Wait?! Artificial devil fruit?! That Devil Fruit? You mean that it is possible to make it?"
"It is."
"...." Carina and Robin.
"Has it been created?" Robin asked curiously.
"Yup." Shinra nodded. "Doflamingo has even sold it."
"..." Carina and Robin.
"By the way, how much is it? Also, what about the cost? Is it a lot?" Carina asked, causing Robin to look at her speechlessly.
Profit aside, if the cost of the artificial Devil Fruit was high, then the profit would be low, so Carina needed to take all of that into account.
At this moment, instead of becoming the best thief in the world, Carina wanted to become the best capitalist and suck all the money, resources, and everything in the world dry like an octopus that reached its tentacles everywhere, greedily eating many things.
"The artificial Devil Fruit is about one-tenth the price of the real Devil Fruit, which is about 10 million bellies. As for the cost of creating it..."
Shinra made signs with his fingers, to which Carina's eyes widened, then she clung to him like an adorable kitty, rubbing her cheek against her master. "Shinra, let's make an artificial Devil Fruit, okay~? I will wear that costume tonight for you~!"
This was simply a money-printing business!
As long as they did this business, they would get a lot of money!
"..." Robin.
"But it isn't so easy, right?" Robin asked curiously. She didn't hate money, but she wasn't as greedy as Carina. If that was enough for her to live in comfort, then that was enough. Even if she lived uncomfortably, it was also fine as long as she could be at peace, but when one thought about her rough childhood, it was perfectly normal.
"I can't say that it is hard since it is pretty simple technology."
"Really?!" 2x
"..."
Wasn't this guy so smart?
Somehow, they wanted to see what was inside his head.
"Stop looking at me with those scary eyes, okay?" Shinra let out a helpless sigh and said, "All the methods are written in this laboratory, so if I want to, it is pretty simple, but this artificial devil fruit has a lot of weaknesses."
"Such as?"
"It can only be a Zoan-type, and the other types are difficult, or almost impossible, at least for now."
"Hmm... even if it's only a Zoan-type, I don't think that we will lack buyers for those Devil Fruits."
What was the one thing sought the most in this world?
While it was weird, naturally, it was a power, and if they could get a power from the Devil Fruit, even if it was just a Zoan-Type, they would do their best to get it!
After all, Devil Fruits were rare, but if they could be mass-produced, then it would be a different problem.
"What about other weaknesses?"
"According to the record, while the people who ate this Devil Fruit gained the power of the Zoan-type of Devil Fruit, it isn't a perfect ability, which unlike a normal Zoan-type of Devil Fruit that can allow the user to transform into three types of a forms, which was a beast form, a human form, and a mix form, but this artificial can only allow a certain trait of the animal to emerge on their bodies."
"A certain part of an animal?" 2x
Robin and Carina thought that the artificial type of Devil Fruit might gain two cat ears.
Wasn't it kind of cute?
"It isn't so cute, okay? Let me give you an example. If you somehow eat a giraffe-type of artificial devil fruit, you can get the power of a giraffe, but your lower body will become like a giraffe's, and your upper body will be connected to that long neck of a giraffe, and you can't even return to normal."
"..." Robin and Carina.
When they heard Shinra's weird example that caused the eater of the artificial devil fruit to become weird, such as having an elephant's head on the stomach, having large mouse ears, and a strange alpaca head, the two had a cold sweat and determined not to eat the artificial devil fruit!
"But this isn't all."
"That isn't all?!"
"Yes." Shinra nodded. Lastly, it isn't concluded that you might get the power of the Zoan-type of Devil Fruit. Instead, when you eat it, you won't gain anything, yet you will be cursed by the sea, unable to swim, and become weak when you are exposed to the sea, and you will laugh."
"Laugh?" 2x
The weakness of the ocean aside, they felt confused by the laugh.
"I don't really know, but the failed artificial devil fruit will probably destroy the nerves of the eaters, and can only make them laugh on their facial expression."
"....." 2x
"...can you fix all of those disadvantages?"
"I should be."
"You can?!" 2x
With a confident smile on his face, Shinra said, "Who do you think I am?"
"...." 2x
What should they do?
This guy was just so handsome!
They wanted to have his children somehow!
"....." Monet.
On the corner, Monet only snorted, thinking that Shinra was just all talk, and this pretty boy was nothing but a face without any essence!
"So, do you want to make it now?" Carina asked curiously.
"No, let's wait till everything is calm."
"Calm? Ah, you are going to fight that Doffy first, right?"
"That guy aside, I am thinking of someone else."
"Someone else?"
"I have told you all the main experiments on these islands, right?"
"Let's see..." Robin thought for a moment and listed all the experiments that Shinra mentioned before. "The artificial devil fruit, the most toxic bomb, and also a method to turn a human into a giant, right? Is it the most toxic bomb? Are we going to fight weapon dealers or something?"
"No, it's a method to turn a human into a giant."
"A method to turn a human into a giant?"
Frankly, whether it was Carina or Robin, they felt that this was a weird experiment, as they wondered what the point of turning a human into a giant was. After all, with the development of the technology, a giant wasn't as invincible as before, and with the increasing price of the food, it would just waste resources to create an army of giants.
"What's the point of doing that?"
"That aside, the one who requested this experiment is one of the Four Emperors, Big Mom."
Shinra looked at the two, who showed dumbfounded expressions, and said, "So, let's make sure everything is peaceful."
"...." 2x
Being targeted by Big Mom, could they live peacefully?
