Chapter 76
Hearing Vilin's question,
Kat looked at the blueprint in his hand and fell into deep thought.
Soon he shook his head again.
"Although this blueprint contains a lot of cutting-edge technology!"
"The power source problem still can't be solved!"
"But give me some time — I'm confident I can figure it out."
Hearing Kat's words,
Vilin finally showed a satisfied smile.
He took out a purple-skinned Devil Fruit with a jagged, crisscrossed surface from his chest.
Just as Vilin was about to hand this precious Devil Fruit to Kat,
his face instantly darkened.
Kat had already become completely immersed in studying the blueprint again.
At this, Vilin almost wanted to turn around and leave.
But in the end he held back.
Vilin once again woke Kat up.
He directly stuffed the Devil Fruit and a thin little booklet into Kat's hands.
Kat looked at the strange fruit in his hand and showed a curious expression.
When Kat opened the thin booklet,
his eyes immediately widened.
He looked at the Devil Fruit in his hand in disbelief,
his eyes filled with fanaticism.
Especially,
when he saw that this fruit had the ability to fuse with all items.
This made his whole body tremble with excitement.
The Glutton-Glutton Fruit's ability is extremely powerful.
Not only can it fuse metals to create memory alloys,
but it can even fuse living beings with metal to create cyborgs.
Kat felt he could fuse some evil pirates with robots made from memory metal.
These robots could self-repair even if destroyed.
The current problem was how to alter their memories so all the robots would obey his commands.
But he quickly put that aside.
Seeing Kat fall into deep thought again,
Vilin gently patted him on the shoulder.
"Remember! From now on, you are the Aitrias family's Chief Mechanic!"
Kat looked at Vilin with eyes full of gratitude.
He felt he might never be able to repay Vilin's kindness in his lifetime.
Kat silently swore in his heart
to complete whatever task Vilin entrusted to him.
After reminding Kat that he could start by researching memory alloys,
Vilin left.
He still had to go "exchange feelings" with Caitlin!
Soon Vilin headed toward Caitlin's room.
Entering Caitlin's room,
Vilin saw a white shadow flash in front of him instantly.
A pitch-black gun barrel appeared right in front of Vilin's eyes.
"Hands up! Step back!"
Seeing Caitlin being so bold,
Vilin wanted to see what tricks she had in mind.
He raised both hands and stepped backward.
Soon he fell onto the soft big bed.
Caitlin showed a playful smile and handcuffed Vilin's hands.
She stepped on Vilin's chest with her jade foot, eyes full of provocation.
Looking at Caitlin wearing a transparent white Navy uniform,
Vilin's dark-green eyes instantly lit up.
Vilin felt his chest burning hot.
He broke free of the handcuffs and pinned her down on the soft bed, staring at her delicate body with fiery eyes.
Feeling the somewhat moist and hot breath coming at her,
Caitlin blinked pitifully toward Vilin.
"Please… spare me!"
Seeing Caitlin's seductive, watery-eyed appearance,
Vilin felt his whole body filled with power.
Soon a fierce "battle" between pirate and Navy unfolded here.
After a long while.
A flame sparked from Vilin's fingertip.
He took a deep drag from the cigarette in his mouth,
then looked somewhat pityingly at Caitlin's flushed pretty face.
Vilin gently wiped the still-wet tear marks from the corner of her eyes.
He sighed a little:
"Seems like I went a bit too far…"
Vilin looked at Caitlin who had fainted,
awkwardly rubbed her black hair.
Vilin held the beauty in his arms.
He felt that ever since joining the Rocks Pirates,
he had somewhat neglected his training.
Entering sage time,
Vilin began reflecting on his mistakes.
"I want to become the strongest in the world!"
"Only then can I better protect my family from harm!"
After reflecting on his mistakes,
Vilin hugged the soft body in his arms and fell into a deep sleep.
Half a month of peaceful life passed in the blink of an eye.
Vilin suddenly remembered John's invitation.
Thinking of John's collection, he also felt some interest.
"Nothing to do anyway — let's go check out John's place!"
"Hope he doesn't disappoint me."
Vilin stretched lazily and headed toward John's pirate crew's residence.
As Vilin appeared on the streets of Beehive Island,
many pirates saw his figure.
Seeing Vilin walking toward them,
these pirates turned pale and ran away.
They had long been terrified of this god of death.
Vilin looked at the pirates scattering in all directions, eyes full of disdain.
He couldn't help curling his lip.
Then he continued toward his destination.
Soon Vilin arrived at the western port of Beehive Island.
This was the residence area of John, Silver Axe, and Wang Zhi's crews.
The John Pirates crew member guarding the gate saw Vilin walking toward their base
and immediately ran inside to report.
John quickly received the news.
Hearing that Vilin had come,
John excitedly stood up from the soft genuine leather sofa and went out to greet him.
John had long been drooling over Vilin's treasure.
He knew how wealthy Vilin was.
The Aitrias Pirates alone had more than a dozen Devil Fruit users.
From this alone, one could see how rich and powerful the other party was.
Soon John saw the Vilin he had been longing for.
John smiled broadly, wrapped an arm around Vilin's shoulder, and led him toward the reception room.
His enthusiasm was very obvious.
If his eyes weren't shaped like treasure signs, Vilin might have been happier.
"Little brother Vilin, why did it take you so long?"
"I've been wanting to invite you to see my collection for a while."
Hearing John's words,
Vilin couldn't help letting out a loud laugh.
"Hahahahaha!"
"My wife just gave birth not long ago."
"Of course I was accompanying them!"
"I only managed to find some free time to come see you!"
"Hahahahaha!"
"Don't worry! I believe you'll be satisfied!"
"Congratulations on already having children!"
"That's quite rare among us pirates."
As the two chatted,
soon
Vilin arrived at John's room under John's guidance.
Under John's hospitality, Vilin sat on a soft genuine leather sofa.
"Wait a moment, I'll be right back."
While having his executive entertain Vilin,
John directly left and headed toward the treasure room.
Vilin drank tea while using plants to secretly track John.
He hoped to find the other party's treasure.
Vilin was very tempted by John's collection.
But to Vilin's disappointment,
he actually lost track of him.
