Arceus in One Piece - Chapter 31
Chapter 31 – A Genius from Over a Hundred Years Ago
“The same aura? Are you sure?”
“Yikes!”
It was standard for all kinds of strange things to float on the sea’s surface. Pirates would only salvage what they were interested in. This kind of odd-looking unidentified creatures would typically not be salvaged on board the ship.
But Elisabeth told Arceus that she smelled something familiar down there. The genetic makeup of snake lizards is very complex, and as reptiles, they have an exceptionally developed sense of smell. They can also capture the odor molecules in the air.
It had just smelled something similar to Olga’s odor up there.
However, while others dismissed him as barking at best, only Arceus could understand what Elizabeth was saying.
“Ashes, get that thing down there.”
“Yes.”
Ashes spread his wings and jumped off the ship’s side, bringing up the unknown creature floating on the surface.
Underneath the dingo jacket was a tattered blonde man with a full face of stubble, an obese frame, and what appeared to be some puffiness from being in the water for too long.
“Olga, Elizabeth said this unknown creature smells like you. Do you recognize it?”
“Eh? But I don’t know him. Can you understand what Elizabeth said, Lord Beast?”
In the past few hours, Shaina had given Olga a simple thought indoctrination, generalizing that Kaido’s words were to be listened to but that it didn’t matter how he was customarily treated. He wouldn’t care.
Just think of her and Asuka as brother and sister, they weren’t hard to get along with, and that fat ass Queen could be ignored and come to her if he dared to pick a fight.
Arceus is the Lord of the Sacred Beasts and must be treated respectfully. There will be no good consequences for disrespecting Arceus, and the last sentence should be emphasized.
She has no problem with intelligence in a lonely environment, living alone with a lizard for over a hundred years without being driven crazy. This mentality is already excellent. Adults living on deserted islands may be unable to endure this loneliness for more than ten years.
But because there was no one else, and she didn’t have anyone to learn from or look up to, her mind was stuck now, and she was still in the mindset of a child.
Being female, they got along quite well, and Olga’s inability to hide what was on her mind would not change for a while, making it easier for Shaina to understand her.
“It’s not that hard to understand it. Elizabeth said it must smell right.” Said Arceus as he surveyed the unknown creature, reaffirming Elizabeth’s words.
In terms of smell and perception, he was many times better than this kind of snake lizard, but he just wasn’t interested in unidentified floating objects on the sea.
This is only a supporting role in the theater version. Arceus’s sleep time in the egg is longer than her life in the stomach of the sea king class, and it is expected that she will not remember this kind of thing.
“Does that mean this guy is my asshole dad?”
It had been over a hundred years since she’d seen him, and although he was still alive inside the Lantern Lord’s body thanks to the pure golden light, his image had changed so much that Olga didn’t recognize him.
“He’s not dead, is he?”
She had mixed feelings about her father, the only family she had ever known, but he had killed her mother and brought in the Lantern Lord.
At that moment, the unknown creature opened its eyes and was inevitably agitated after realizing it was still alive.
He was swallowed into the stomach of Neptune, but he went to another island in his stomach, where countless dinosaurs live. To protect himself, he disguised himself as a dinosaur cub, and for more than a hundred years, he could only eat meat every day and couldn’t see any vegetables or fruits.
This is the opposite of Olga, who can only eat vegetables and fruits daily and can’t see any meat.
After the Sea King class was crushed, he also ran out from the hole, punched through the Sea King class, and was lucky enough not to be drowned and managed to float here.
“You guys, can’t you activate the outer ship? Do you want me to do everything on this ship? Kid, a trainee, at least do something ah!”
When the ship didn’t start, Queen stepped out with a grumpy look on his face. After all, there was one more person on this ship that he could instruct, so he thought, and then he saw one more person on the deck.
Realizing that he was out of the Dinosaur’s den, he naturally took off his Dinosaur’s coat. Olga carried pure gold with her, so her clothes remained the same as they had been back then, but he was only affected by the glow of the pure gold, so his clothes had become tattered and torn.
Neptune’s favorite food was pure gold, and the bait was full of pure gold evolved substance. The intense light even illuminated his own body.
The most intact thing on his body was his belt, and the writing on the belt, as well as the graphics on Olga’s skirt, caught Queen’s attention.
It had been dark when Olga had first appeared, and he hadn’t paid attention to the details on the dark skirt, but now he noticed something crucial.
“This pattern… Alkaimi, you’re from the island of Alkaimi? But that island is a legendary island that disappeared over a hundred years ago.
Don’t look at me. I don’t know much about this either, and it has something to do with you, Mr. Arceus because even Berger Punk couldn’t analyze the elements that make up your tablet.
In this regard, Alchemy’s technology is top-notch, so the institute was filled with literature about Alchemy so that I could recognize it.”
“Ah, I am indeed an Alkemi. My name is Asier, Miskina Asier.”
“I can’t believe you’re actually alive.”
“Am I famous?”
“Of course, the Berger Punks admire your talent in materials science and mineralogy. You’re the genius who made Pure Gold!”
The people at the MADS Institute were not convinced by each other. They all thought that they were geniuses, even compared to Berger Punk, and there was only one kind of person in the peer group that they would brag about in public – a dead person.
It’s okay to brag about a dead predecessor, but Asier belongs to this category, and in the eyes of everyone who knows him, he’s a dead man. After all, even the island of Alkaimi has disappeared.
Otherwise, he would have been taken away by the World Government. Pure gold is known as the metal that can buy the world because the Dragons are willing to do whatever it takes to get it.
Pure gold can greatly slow down the growth process of living things. In other words, it is a treasure that can make people live forever. More than a hundred years have passed without any change in Olga, which makes those who are at the top of the power go crazy.
However, pure gold would attract a super-sized Neptune attack that would eat the entire island, so the substance has always been a legend.
“He’s not a genius scientist. He’s an asshole! Pure gold shouldn’t be in this world!”
