Hearing this, Admiral Kizaru could only shrug helplessly.
"Don't worry, we've already invited Dr. Vegapunk to assist you with this matter!" Sengoku explained in detail.
"That's even better then!"
"I feel completely reassured!" Kizaru said, crossing his legs.
After all, Dr. Vegapunk was known as the scientist who surpassed human intelligence by 500 years!
With Dr. Vegapunk and his team of scientists working together on the research, there was absolutely no doubt about its success! Thinking this, Kizaru unceremoniously grabbed a handful of Senzu Beans and walked out of Sengoku's office.
"Fleet Admiral, is this thing really that powerful?"
"Could the effectiveness vary due to differences in strength?" Admiral Akainu asked with a furrowed brow.
Sengoku also had this concern.
"Come, everyone, follow me to the training ground!" With a wave of his hand, Sengoku led the group in a grand procession to the training ground.
Under Sengoku direction, Akainu walked to the center of the training ground.
"Akainu, don't defend yourself!"
"Just endure whatever comes your way!" Sengoku shouted loudly.
Sweat immediately broke out on Akainu forehead.
He really didn't know if this little bean in his hand could protect him.
"Aokiji , casually summon a few ice spikes and aim them at non-lethal areas of Admiral Akainu!" Sengoku said to Aokiji, who had just put on his eye mask and was about to take a nap.
"Well, I won't refuse then!" Aokiji immediately perked up at the thought of being able to openly attack Akainu.
"Ice Spikes!" Aokiji roared, startling Akainu in the center of the field.
A sharp, icy spike shot straight toward Akainu face.
Watching the ice spike about to hit Akainu face, Sengoku frowned.
Seeing the ice spike getting closer, Akainu face turned pale.
"Aokiji, I hate you!" Akainu roared.
Instantly, the entire training ground attention was drawn.
"Isn't that Admiral Akainu? And Admiral Aokiji?"
"Why is Admiral Aokiji attacking Admiral Akainu?"
"And why isn't Admiral Akainu fighting back?" The marines chattered among themselves.
Seeing that his goal of scaring Akainu had been achieved, Aokiji willed the ice spike to make a sharp turn in mid-air.
It plunged straight into Akainu buttocks!
In an instant, the high-speed ice spike sent a flurry of snow flying.
"Ah!" Akainu howled in pain, throwing his head back.
"Aokiji, I'm going to kill you!" Akainu glared furiously.
"Who knew you wouldn't put up any defense at all?" Aokiji shrugged nonchalantly.
Sengoku looked at the two helplessly.
"Alright, Akainu, quickly see the effect of this medicine!" Sengoku adjusted his glasses and said seriously.
Glaring fiercely at Aokiji, Akainu swallowed the Senzu Bean in his hand.
Moments later, a green light emanated from Akainu body!
The bloody wound on Admiral Akainu buttocks was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. In no time, it was completely restored, without even a trace of a scar! "
The effect is simply terrifying!" Garp exclaimed in disbelief.
Sengoku and Tsuru remained silent, but their eyes were filled with an incredulous glow! This was too overpowering! It could even restore injuries regardless of a person strength!
If that's the case, wouldn't the healing be even more terrifying for those with higher strength?
"Notify Kizaru, this thing must be successfully researched!"
Sengoku turned to Tsuru and spoke with utmost seriousness.
Tsuru also nodded. The strategic significance of this beans was too important!
...
Soon, Kizaru met the scientist hailed as the smartest in the world—Dr. Vegapunk!
"Dr. Vegapunk, it's nice to meet you!" Kizaru spoke quite politely.
After all, many of the weapons used by his science division were invented by Dr. Vegapunk!
"Admiral Kizaru, I'm here because Fleet Admiral Sengoku told me about ground-breaking drugs!"
"Let's not waste time and get straight to the point, shall we?"
Dr. Vegapunk ignored Kizaru pleasantries and spoke word by word.
Kizaru, familiar with the eccentric scientist temperament, quickly had a severely wounded pirate brought forward.
Then, at Kizaru signal, Sentomaru tossed a Senzu Bean into the pirate mouth.
In less than three breaths, a green light emanated from the pirate body!
All his injuries were visibly healing at an astonishing speed!
Dr. Vegapunk, who had been expressionless, was instantly stunned by this miraculous sight.
Even Dr. Vegapunk was witnessing a scene like this for the first time!
As a scientist, he naturally had knowledge of pharmacology! Although he specialized in weapon development, Dr. Vegapunk occasionally participated in the Marine new drug research!
He knew just how revolutionary it was for a drug to achieve such terrifying recovery speed!
"Who invented this drug?"
Dr. Vegapunk immediately grabbed Kizaru and asked loudly.
"This is undoubtedly an invention of the ages!"
"I must meet this medical genius!"
Dr. Vegapunk nearly fell into a frenzy.
"I'm sorry, Dr. Vegapunk, but the inventor of this drug is a pirate, currently with the Whitebeard Pirates!"
Kizaru quickly explained.
"The cost of developing this drug must be extremely high!"
"I imagine you paid a hefty price to obtain it!"
Dr. Vegapunk, realizing he had lost his composure, straightened his clothes and spoke seriously.
"Well, how should I put it?"
"Actually, we didn't pay at all!"
Kizaru scratched his head, blushing slightly as he spoke.
