The basketball-sized orange tennis ball in front of him was glowing with a faint White light.
That's right, this was the 'Core Component' Luca had newly collected these past few days.
Originally, Luca had finally been able to settle down and develop after dealing with Kingpin these past few days. Besides handling the aftermath of the incident and trying to gradually intervene in the company's operations,
most of his time was spent shopping (crossed out) and searching for more synthesis items.
However, Luca initially thought of trying to collect the 'Conan Five-Piece Set' to see what would happen when the '1/5' on the Golden Finger panel became '5/5'.
Therefore, he was actually searching more in stores like watch shops and clothing stores, where 'anesthetic watches', 'voice-changing bow ties', and 'elastic suspenders' were likely to appear.
Unexpectedly, he didn't find any Conan series items. Instead, he accidentally discovered this glowing orange tennis ball in the pet toy section of the mall.
Hmm, actually, this thing's original purpose should have been a 'dog boredom ball'.
But Luca didn't care about that much.
The most crucial thing was that the item's panel description seemed to perfectly solve Luca's urgent problem.
Moreover, because the '720 micron-level neural stimulation units' required for the [TUX-1 Tactical Suit] (Magical Tuxedo) were difficult to obtain, the 'synthesis materials' for this brand-new item arrived even earlier.
Luca gently placed his hand on the 'dog boredom ball' in front of him.
The next moment, a light blue panel immediately popped out.
[Haro]
[Gundam 00 1/5]
[Manufacturer: Europa Research Vessel - Pseudo Innovator 0026]
[Core Component: Orange Tennis Toy]
[Synthesis Consumables: 2 red LED light beads, 1 smart chip loaded with weapon data, 1 set of small microphone and speaker equipment, 2 small multi-directional robotic arms, 1 small battery, 1.32 square meters of carbon fiber]
[Item Description: Multi-functional smart pet. A small intelligent robot with various functions such as human-machine interaction, weapon repair and manufacturing, programming, and mobile suit piloting. Due to the material of its shell, it is almost impossible to be destroyed by conventional attacks, and its internal chip also stores a large amount of technology beyond its time.]
[Friendly Reminder: Well, don't treat it as an ordinary electronic pet. After all, for you, it might be more like a true mechanical master~]
That's right, this seemingly ridiculous 'Core Component' could synthesize the famous Haro robot, the true protagonist of the entire Gundam series and ace Gundam pilot!
The most crucial thing was that, according to the panel description, this version of the Haro robot was not just a simple electronic pet.
It also integrated various functions such as 'weapon repair and manufacturing', 'programming', and 'mobile suit piloting'.
'If Haro is really as amazing as the description says, then perhaps this little thing is even more like a true inventor than me, this fake!'
Full of anticipation, Luca didn't hesitate for a moment.
He directly picked up the tennis ball and placed it down, then took out the other 'synthesis materials' one by one from the newly arrived express box, and then drew a circular array on the ground with chalk.
Then he placed these 'synthesis materials' one by one into the array.
LED light beads, smart chip, multi-directional robotic arms...
After all the 'synthesis materials' lit up with White light, Luca let out a long breath and clapped his hands on the edge of the circular array.
He silently chanted in his heart.
'Synthesize!'
The next instant, milky White light enveloped the entire magic circle.
As the light dissipated.
A spherical robot, seven or eight parts similar to the previous 'dog boredom ball', suddenly appeared in the center of the magic circle.
'It's done!'
As Luca's thought arose.
The orange-yellow spherical robot's pair of red dot eyes suddenly lit up and flickered.
Immediately followed by an electronic prompt sound of "beep~".
The next moment.
"Start! Start!"
The spherical robot in front of him, with red light flickering in its eyes, repeated its startup voice while rolling away from the center of the magic circle and coming to Luca's front.
"Highest authority! Highest authority!"
"Luca! Luca!"
'Sure enough, there's also a limiting program similar to Zero's first law, right? It just feels a bit silly...'
Looking at the bouncing little thing in front of him, Luca always felt that it didn't seem as intelligent as the Golden Finger had described.
"Haro?"
"Haro! Haro!"
"..."
"It really is a bit silly..." Luca complained.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he said this, Haro immediately bounced up angrily and bumped into Luca's knee.
"Not silly! Not silly!"
"Luca silly! Luca silly!"
Luca "..."
"This little thing has quite a temper..."
He reached out to stop Haro, who wanted to 'headbutt' him again, and squeezed it. Unexpectedly, this robot, which should theoretically be made of the special material 'E-Carbon' from the Gundam 00 World, was surprisingly elastic when squeezed.
When thrown on the ground, it bounced back as if it were a real tennis toy due to compression and deformation.
'Is this some kind of conceptual force generated to adhere to the original version again?'
Thinking that his Golden Finger had always been so unreasonable, Luca simply stopped dwelling on it. Instead, he became even more excited about the functions of Haro described in the Golden Finger panel, and immediately asked,
"Haro, tell me, what functions do you have?"
Hearing Luca's question, the little thing that had been bouncing around finally stopped.
It flapped its pair of ear-like robotic arm covers, slowly landing and steadying itself, then the red light in its two dot eyes flickered continuously.
However, just as Luca was eagerly waiting for Haro to introduce itself.
Unexpectedly, this little thing in front of him jumped up again and hit Luca's instep, while repeating, seemingly a bit angrily,
"Idiot Luca! Idiot Luca!"
Luca was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but then he immediately grabbed Haro with both hands and rubbed it unhappily.
"I am the highest authority! You little thing..."
Unexpectedly, Luca had only said half of his sentence when he saw Haro, who was being rubbed by him, spit out a data cable with a connector from its body, while not forgetting to continue taunting,
"Connect device! Connect device! Speaking complex! Speaking complex!"
Luca, who had been a bit indignant just now, finally realized.
With Haro's setting of only being able to speak two words at a time, if it were to introduce all its functions to him, it would probably take until next month to finish.
The little guy had been waiting patiently in place earlier, actually waiting for Luca to get a computer to help it connect the data cable.
A bit embarrassed, Luca didn't look at Haro's 'mocking' eyes. He honestly carried the little thing to the computer and connected the data cable to it.
Immediately after, Haro's eyes flashed red.
Its various data capabilities were then displayed one by one on the computer screen.
