Unlocking a New Invention—Zanpakutō
In the world of One Piece, bullets and cannonballs are arguably the weakest weapons!
Although in the hands of some extraordinary individuals bullets and cannonballs can still pack a significant punch, For example, Izou one of the division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates, has mastered the use of flintlocks to an exceptional level!
But such cases are rare!
However, if explosive tags could truly be combined with bullets and cannonballs, even weaker fighters could pose a threat to stronger opponents!
Pryce nodded in agreement.
"This idea is absolutely brilliant!"
"Caesar, I'm entrusting you with the task of developing this!"
"I'll focus on producing the explosive tags, and you'll work on integrating them into bullets and cannonballs!" Pryce patted Caesar on the shoulder, speaking earnestly.
After all, Caesar had been working for him for some time now! There was a level of trust between them.
***
Soon, under Pryce supervision, a steady stream of explosive tags began rolling out of the factory.
Encouraged by Pryce trust, Caesar threw himself into the research and development of bullets and cannonballs infused with explosive tags, working tirelessly day and night.
When Caesar presented Pryce with the first bullet containing an explosive tags and the first bomb packed with hundreds of explosive tags, Pryce knew he had entrusted the right person for the job.
Caesar excitedly called Pryce to the artillery training ground.
After skillfully loading the flintlock, Caesar pulled the trigger.
A bullet shot out at incredible speed, striking a rock. The moment it collided with the rock, the explosive tag inside the bullet detonated, shattering the rock into pieces!
The effect of this bullet was simply amazing, Pryce even had the uncharitable thought that if Luffy had encountered such bullets when he first set sail, his future adventures might have been cut short!
There was no way a rubber man like him could withstand the power of these bullets!
Boom!
A massive explosion snapped Pryce back to reality.
Caesar fired a cannonball containing hundreds of explosive tags, blasting a crater dozens of meters wide in the distance.
"Pryce, the combined explosion of hundreds of explosive tags could easily tear a warship to pieces!"
"With this level of power, even the Navy most fearsome steel battleships would sink under a barrage of these enhanced cannonballs!" Caesar exclaimed with excitement.
As a fanatic of destructive machinery, Caesar was undoubtedly overjoyed at this moment.
Pryce also nodded with a smile.
Soon, with Pryce' approval, Caesar dedicated an entire workshop to the production of explosive tag bullets and cannonballs.
Crates of explosive tag bullets and cannonballs were moved out.
The once-deserted artillery training ground was now packed with people!
Izou, upon seeing the explosive tag bullets, was utterly shocked!
His own "Bullet Slash" technique was already formidable, but when combined with these explosive tag bullets, its power tripled and The lethality skyrocketed!
Even the Whitebeard Pirates' fighters, who had previously looked down on firearms, now fell in love with flintlocks and explosive tag bullets, After all, using this kind of thing in battle against enemies would catch them off guard and cause them significant losses.
Moreover, there's another reason they look down on firearms—the agility of the strong in this world is simply extraordinary, In the Navy, there's the Rokushiki technique—Soru!
This technique, which relies on rapidly stomping the ground dozens of times to generate explosive reaction force for high-speed movement, can easily dodge the aim of those who aren't skilled shooters.
After all, there are only a handful of people in this world who are truly skilled with guns, Most people who pick up a gun can only manage to "outline" their targets at best.
But with the addition of explosive tags bullets, you don't even need to aim too carefully, After all explosive tags bullets pack the power of an explosion!
As long as they land near the enemy, they can cause damage.
And the explosive tags bullets developed by Caesar have been warmly welcomed by all members of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Every day, division commanders come in groups to ask Caesar for explosive tags bullets.
Caesar even went so far as to create a few bullets containing thousands of explosive tags—one shot from those could blow away half a mountain!
However, because the explosion timing was too hard to control and the storage was too dangerous and unstable, Pryce banned them.
But bullets containing hundreds of explosive tags still pack a considerable punch, Marco even admitted that if he were hit by these bullets, he'd be in a very sorry state.
Meanwhile, Whitebeard, who was drinking in the ship's cabin, suddenly shuddered violently, He spilled quite a bit of his drink on the floor.
"Those brats!" Whitebeard cursed with a laugh.
He'd already gotten used to it these past few days!
Now, many people are experimenting with explosive tags bullets, and Whitebeard has seen their power—it's truly remarkable.
...
A few days later, Pryce watched as the last explosive tags rolled off the production line, a smile of satisfaction on his face. The final explosive tags was complete!
Sure enough, the system electronic voice immediately chimed in.
"Congratulations to system owner Pryce for completing the explosive tags production task!"
"Now unlocking the next item for production!"
"Congratulations! You have obtained the method to create a Zanpakuto!"
The system electronic voice sounded especially pleasant at this moment.
Pryce eyes lit up. "A Zanpakuto?!"
Pryce was inwardly shocked.
He knew about Zanpakuto—they weren't from this world but were weapons from the realm of the Shinigami! And they were quite extraordinary weapons!
The shape, state, and abilities of a Zanpakuto are formed based on the Shinigami own soul, A Shinigami gains power by learning the name of their Zanpakuto and engaging in a spiritual dialogue with it.
Moreover, a Zanpakuto can unleash terrifying power to assist its wielder in battle.
"However, in the world of Bleach, the focus is on training the Reiryoku to enhance one strength, which is different from the world of One Piece!" Pryce asked with some confusion.
If that's the case, even with a Zanpakuto, one wouldn't be able to unleash its full potential!
"Answering the question from system owner Pryce, the system has automatically detected the difference between your current world and the original world where the item was created!"
"Modifications have now been made!"
The electronic voice of the system spoke again.
"Damn, is it really that user-friendly?" Pryce blurted out.
