Caesar Clown was originally a member of Marine “Scientific Force Base”, a fellow of Vegapunk, a Genius Scientist second only to Vegapunk! It’s not surprising that he can appear in Marine Headquarters.
But “Second only to Vegapunk” means that Caesar·Clown is inferior to Vegapunk.
This recognized fact is a great shame in Caesar’s eyes!
In order to prove that he is better than Vegapunk, he fights against Vegapunk everywhere, and after repeated defeats, his thinking becomes more and more extreme. Finally, in the year 1518, Caesar created the Toxic Gas Accident that destroyed the entire Punk Hazard!
Because of this, he was arrested by the World Government and escorted back to Mary Geoise for questioning.
Later, he escaped from the prison ship with the help of Donquixote Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Doflamingo saw the Lineage Factor technology he researched with Vegapunk and asked him to make artificial Zoan Devil Fruit – The raw material of “Smile” – “Sad” for himself, in order to trade with Kaido and control the reins of the New World Monsters.
Faced with Doflamingo’s offer and his strength, the two sides started their cooperation, Caesar Clown also returned to Punk Hazard in Sea Calander 1519 and he began his own evil plan.
What happened later is clear to comic fans, in addition to the production of “Sad”, Caesar also cheats out some funds from one of the Yonkō (Four Emperors) Charlotte Linlin, apparently, he had promised to help Charlotte Linlin to carry out Giantization experiments, the actual use of gas bombs.
In reality, it was used to make gas bombs. Three years later in Sea Calander 1522, Straw Hats set out again and they happened upon Punk Hazard and knocked it off, then they went towards Dressrosa along the way and took Doflamingo off his throne, and then they took Caesar to Cake Island…… In Charlotte Linlin’s territory.
The current year is only 1515 in Sea Calander, and they are still three full years away from the terrifying Toxic Gas Accident, so he is still an up-and-coming Genius Scientist, at best, he is a bit “Haughty”, and has a bad relationship with his boss Vegapunk.
So it wasn’t a surprise that Caesar would appear in the Marine Headquarters!
The only thing is…
Why is he so interested in the Thunder-Lightning Stimulation Device?
Seeing Caesar·Clown’s face full of greasy tiredness and sweating and his reluctant expression to use his hands for careful inspection, Rowen thought for a while to spoke in a low voice: “F*ck him! I don’t know him anyway!”
…
Another boring half-hour passed, and everyone was a little impatient. Trane even rubbed his eyes and turned to ask: “Dr. Caesar, when will the test start?”
“Good, now… done!”
Caesar replied as if he had dealt with a huge issue and suddenly yelled in surprise and locked in the cabin behind the Device.
“Dang Dang Dang!”
They saw his body getting covered with light and empty smoke which was coming from behind the Device to the front, Ceasar raised his hand to give a speech: “Welcome to my demonstration time! What you are about to see next is……”
“Cut the crap! Do you know how long we have been waiting for?!”
Snap!
A half-eaten doughnut was thrown from the stands and smashed at Caesar’s feet. The latter wanted to get angry, but turned his head and said with a dry smile, “Well, it looks like everyone can’t wait, so without further ado, the experiment will begin immediately!”
He can’t afford to provoke these people especially the one who threw the doughnut!
A large group of Headquarters Officials squinted their eyes at the same time, the pressure upon Caesar was immense!!
“Here is the first step, first ask the experimenter to lie in!”
Trane did as instructed and honestly lay in.
“Then we will proceed to the second step, we will gradually connect the power supply and close the hatch.”
Unlike the first phase which used electrodes attached to the tester’s body, the second phase Device energized the area to accommodate the tester’s entire frame. The Scientists rushed in, turning on one power switch after another. After checking with Trane, they closed the hatch.
“Finally, the third step… It’s time to witness the Miracle!”
Puff!!
Rowen spouted out a sip of salt soda as he heard a classic line that was commonly used in some classic books or shows! Fortunately, everyone’s attention is now on the Device and no one cares what he did while hiding in the corner.
Caesar also didn’t care and continued to shout with his unique sharp voice: “Open the Main Valve!!”
Buzz!!!
Zī Zī Zī Zī Zī Zī Zī!!
At once, a sense of pushing pressure spread outward, and a few Scientists who were careless fell on the ground, and then busily ran away to the distance. It was an amazing sight! A full billion Volt of current was compressed in the Device, even with a voltage divider as insurance, this surge generated still had a substantial appearance!
The Marines on the scene all felt the air become dry, and there was a tingling sensation upon their skin, and their hairs were standing upside down uncontrollably… Well, only a few people seem to find it somewhat unbearable as there are several physique masters who can control their bodies with Life Return (Seimei Kikan).
Before their hair can let go, they controlled them and the hairs became obedient. Especially the big beauty Momousagi, the metal chains on her shoulder straps are floating up but her long silky black hairs are perfectly still!
Feeling Rowen’s gaze, Momousagi turned around and nod at him.
At the center of the site, the Device gradually stabilized while the Scientists took out various tools one after another and started measuring data and taking notes. Caesar was trembling with excitement. He could not contain the excitement when he thought that the Second Phase of this Device was developed without Vegapunk’s intervention.
How about that?
How can your Device, which can only help ordinary soldiers grow stronger, catch up to mine? I have created a Device that can allow the Vice-Admiral of the Headquarters to grow stronger!
Vegapunk, you are finally defeated by me!
Although Vegapunk was the one who invented the Device, this can only be regarded as a phased victory. But Caesar Clown is confident that if things go on like this, he will definitely be able to thoroughly Surmount Vegapunk and become a true “First Scientist”!
Then……
Boom…Crack!!
Suddenly, the lights in the Device flickered, and the current buzzing sound suddenly disappeared and the surroundings fell into darkness.
“What’s the matter? Did something go wrong?!”
“What happened?”
“Someone, light the candles!”
Caesar panicked. If the Device had a problem then his dream would die again.
Zī Zī Zī Zī…
At this moment, a Humanoid beam of light lit up. Rowen’s body was entwined with an astonishing amount of electric current, making the surroundings bright as daylight. The people present here saw him appear near the wall at this moment as he put his finger on the jack and tried something before saying.
“Don’t worry, everyone, there is no problem with the Device. It’s just that Scientific Force Base’s generator couldn’t support such a huge supply of current and tripped.”
As soon as he said this, a clear sound of comfort sigh echoed in the quiet test field. Kizaru waved out a ball of light and let it float in the test field, and then ordered: “Group One and Two, Immediately check the generator, Group three check the circuits, Group Four, notify the news to avoid any confusion.”
“Yes, Sir!!”
The highest Commander-in-Chief of Scientific Force Base has given out his orders and the situation suddenly stabilized. After doing this, Kizaru looked at Rowen, who was dissipating the electricity from his body, and touched his chin: “This kid, he can’t be doing this on purpose, right?”
He could have just said nothing because no one knows whether it was the Device that went wrong or if it was the power supply that was insufficient.
As a result, when he spoke, not only did the surrounding people who were hanging a heart eager for a breakthrough breathe out a sigh of relief but also Caesar-Clown, who was the developer, was grateful for it.
One sentence brought him the goodwill and the favorability of two waves of people!
Kizaru thought he could not learn this wave of operations.
“What a smart kid!”
Kizaru shook his head, he was too lazy to pursue it.
