Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 340: Chapter 41: Manufacturing

Su Xiao glanced at the Tyrant Kuma lying on the test bench, his expression unchanged. Currently, Kizaru, Tina, and others were in the room, so he couldn’t show any other emotions.

”Doctor Vega Punk, how long will Kuma’s modifications take? Marshal Sengoku has been urging me to return soon.”

Kizaru spoke up. After all, he was a Naval Admiral; even though he was stationed here, he still had to fulfill his duties.

”It will take about another week. You can’t leave for now; the PX project requires your Devil Fruit ability to be perfected.”

”Uh~, what a headache.”

Kizaru nodded lazily and glanced at Su Xiao.

”Bai Ye, your laboratory is ready. Let me take you to see it; that’s where you’ll be working from now on.”

Kizaru spoke as he walked out of the laboratory, while Vega Punk continued working.

Su Xiao’s lab was not far from there, only separated by two rooms.

Entering the lab, a plethora of precision machinery came into view. In the center of the room was a workbench, with many materials placed on it and a comfortable seat beside it.

Su Xiao sat down in front of the workbench and inspected various materials in order. Although they differed from the names on his list, the nature of the materials was the same.

Grabbing a few materials and performing simple mixing, Su Xiao began producing an alchemy bomb. Seconds later, an alchemy bomb appeared in his hand.

This alchemy bomb was slightly different from previous ones; due to the difference in materials, this alchemy bomb was milky white and slightly harder in texture.

He checked the properties of the alchemy bomb.

”Intermediate Mind Bomb”

Quality: White

Type: Consumable

Effect: Can be activated anytime by consuming 1 Mana point (range 800 meters, increased to one kilometer if detonated by the creator), causing 96 damage within 6 meters after explosion, can slightly change shape, and can be attached to most objects.

Rating: 8

Introduction: This item cannot be taken out of the current Derivative World.

...

After checking the effect of the Intermediate Alchemy Bomb, Su Xiao was very satisfied. Although its power was slightly lower than those made using Paradise coins, it was still excellent in other aspects.

Su Xiao tossed the alchemy bomb to Kizaru.

”Due to the different materials, the color has some variations, but the quality hasn’t decreased.”

Kizaru briefly checked the Intermediate Alchemy Bomb and handed it to Tina, as it required special inspection.

”The technology can be provided to you, but the likelihood of you manufacturing it is slim.”

”There’s no need. We have already verified on the technical side that Doctor Vega Punk can’t produce such bombs.”

Su Xiao raised an eyebrow; it seemed the Navy was prepared.

”Then I won’t interrupt, Bai Ye... Doctor.”

Kizaru’s tone was somewhat odd, but Su Xiao didn’t mind.

”Wait.”

Footsteps of Kizaru and War Momotsuki stopped.

”I’m hungry.”

Su Xiao’s words left the three stunned, with Tina immediately reacting.

”Apologies, I forgot to prepare breakfast for Mister Bai Ye.”

”It’s not just me, there’s also my partner, and it has a big appetite, prepare for five people, no, for ten people worth of food.”

Su Xiao had already tasted Pirate World’s cuisine, and as this was a secret Navy base, the chef’s skills should be excellent.

”Breakfast will be delivered in ten minutes. Mister Bai Ye, would you like something light or...”

Tina became like a secretary, this was the Navy’s arrangement. Every important researcher had a Navy bodyguard and overseer.

With War Momotsuki aside acting for Vega Punk, now Tina served a similar role: secretary + life assistant + bodyguard + monitor.

Tina was a Devil Fruit Ability User with the Cage Cage Fruit ability, capable of creating barriers to trap enemies, which suited well for overseeing someone.

Placing Tina by Su Xiao’s side had another implication: if Su Xiao displayed any abnormal behavior, Tina would control him immediately.

Kizaru and others left the room. Su Xiao took off his coat and stretched lazily.

If all that was needed was mass production of Alchemy Bombs, then in two days Su Xiao could clear the Navy’s suspicion of him. More precisely, the Navy would have to heavily rely on him.

As the Alchemy Bomb Production level increased, the bombs Su Xiao produced would become more powerful. At that time, he wouldn’t fear what the Navy might do to him.

In front of him, the workbench was stocked with a large amount of materials and [T3 Potion]; if materials or potions ran out, there would immediately be someone to replenish them.

Picking up several materials, a white light shimmered in Su Xiao’s hand, and those materials gradually dissolved and purified, turning into an Intermediate Alchemy Bomb in 40 seconds.

He casually placed the alchemy bomb aside and repeated the process, the number of alchemy bombs on the workbench increasing rapidly.

One, two, three...

Until 26 alchemy bombs were placed on the workbench, Su Xiao’s Mana Value was entirely exhausted.

Swigging the [T3 Potion], his Mana quickly restored and fully recovered in seconds.

”Mister Bai Ye, your breakfast is ready.”

Tina’s voice echoed, not too loud.

”Bu Bu, you go ahead and eat, I’ll eat later.”

Su Xiao picked up the materials ready to continue making alchemy bombs. The bomb-making process wasn’t tedious; with each bomb he made, his understanding of it deepened.

This was akin to an accumulation process; only when Su Xiao thoroughly comprehended a type of alchemy bomb could he craft even more powerful ones.

”Woof.”

Bubute Ni barked once, squatting by the dining table but not eating.

”Mister Bai Ye, it’s better to eat first; you can make bombs afterward.”

Su Xiao paused his hand holding the materials, then set them down and walked to the dining area. The lab facilities were all-inclusive, with built-in dining rooms, bedrooms, etc.

When he reached the table, the food was very abundant.

”Today’s main dishes are Sea King meat and woolly sheep meat from ’Saint Qi Island’.

Su Xiao stabbed a piece of mutton and took a bite, the meat was tender, rich but not greasy.

”Aren’t you eating too?”

Su Xiao looked at Tina.

”No, I ate earlier.”

Gulu~.

Tina’s stomach growled, making the scene awkward for a moment.

Given Tina’s current special status, she couldn’t establish any friendship with Su Xiao, not even a superior-subordinate relationship.

”Then forget it.”

Su Xiao ate leisurely, with Bubute Ni savoring the feast next to him, eating with so much gusto that grease dripped from its mouth.

Ten minutes later, Bubute Ni lay on the ground with its belly visibly swollen, letting out a satisfied burp, eyes half-closed, in blissful dog life.

A few Navy personnel began clearing the dining table, while Su Xiao returned to the workbench, continuing to manufacture alchemy bombs.

The materials on the workbench quickly diminished, and the number of empty test tubes at Su Xiao’s feet grew, with over 300 alchemy bombs having piled up after three hours.

As he continually produced alchemy bombs, Su Xiao’s speed at making them increased—from 40 seconds per bomb to 31 seconds per bomb.

Practice makes perfect; Su Xiao was becoming increasingly adept at creating alchemy bombs.

Su Xiao had become immersed in alchemy, with only him and Bubute Ni in the lab—others wouldn’t remain there, given that there were over 300 explosives in the lab.

If he detonated these alchemy bombs, except for Naval Admirals, the survival rate for others would be slim. In this lab, he held absolute dominance.
