APJ Chapter 207 Rotom integrated into life

The process of claiming the prize went smoothly, but from Kojiro’s perspective, the other party’s behavior seemed unnecessary. Not to mention claiming the prize, even if she had come directly to ask for money, he wouldn’t have refused.

Although Kojiro’s trading guild was thriving in Wano Country, he was well aware that the trading guild was merely a leaf attached to the Beasts Pirates. If he had any ulterior motives, Beasts Pirates could replace him at any time.

The rise of the trading guild was a huge blow to local merchants in Wano Country. After seeing the enormous profits brought by the Beasts Pirates, they had long thrown away their xenophobia.

However, those who had already missed the opportunity to join the Beasts Pirates had no chance now. Kojiro didn’t want to be replaced by someone else, so he always seized the various opportunities presented to him.

He couldn’t refuse Yamato’s request, but he would report it afterwards. It was best not to meddle in other people’s family affairs.

Then he checked the recent sales records and roughly guessed what was going on. After all, a large batch of goods had been directly delivered from the production factory in Ringo to Onigashima recently.

“These expenses are even more than the grand prize.”

“What should we do next, Young Master Kojiro?”

“Again release a few of them. This time, pay attention and preferably let an ordinary person who collects bottle caps win the grand prize’ cap.”

“Understood. I’ll take care of it right away.”

As for Yamato, she didn’t have a clear understanding of these numbers. She coincidentally obtained the grand prize’ bottle cap, and then in order to win the lottery, she used her New Year’s money to purchase a large number of bottle caps and sent them to the Beasts Pirates’ base.

Upon closer calculation, her private fund had actually shrunk, but she didn’t mind because she had already gained the happiness that comes with winning the lottery.

With Milcery on her top of head, Yamato happily hopped back to Onigashima. However, as soon as she arrived at the entrance of Onigashima, she was stopped by a strange creature.

“Rotom, please show your ID card, Rotom.”

An unknown red square was blocking her way, continuously demanding to see her ID card.

Its true form was a check-in machine created by Queen. It wasn’t difficult to create something similar to an ID card with the technology available here. After the request was made, Queen and Acier spent half a day finalizing the design.

During Acier’s research over the years, he also produced some special materials. He originally intended to use these materials as a substitute for Pure Gold, but he didn’t expect to accidentally create a material that functioned similarly to a magnetic card.

Combining it with the production method of the New World’s Vivre Card, an ID card with personal information recorded appeared within the Beasts Pirates and was distributed to everyone.

Subsequently, Queen also made several check-in devices. When entering Onigashima, all one had to do was swipe their own ID card.

However, during this period, Arceus modified those check-in devices, or more accurately, bestowed souls upon them, making them the new vessels for Rotom.

Although the current Rotom looked like a check-in device, it was not its true form. The check-in device was merely its host, while its true form existed within.

Rotom’s true form was composed of plasma. Its orange body was its core, surrounded by a blue translucent plasma that could materialize as Rotom’s hands.

Arceus used Zap Plate to create a large number of Rotom. Now, not only did Onigashima possess such a check-in device, thanks to the unique properties of Rotom, Onigashima has entered the Intelligence Era.

Because Rotom’s body was like electricity, it could enter the internals of certain machines. Any machine operated by electricity could become its new body.

Its main body’s type was Electric and Ghost, but in reality, Electric was its primary type. Depending on the machine it entered, its type would vary.

However, Rotom has one requirement for the kinetic energy of machines, and that was compatibility with Rotom’s special motor. Queen spent several months developing such a motor and used it to modify parts of machines.

Now, in his and Acier’ laboratory, Onigashima’s kitchen, and the check-in devices outside, Rotom’s presence was almost everywhere.

“I’m sorry, Miss Yamato, this fellow is new, and some programs haven’t been entered in it yet.”

At that moment, another Rotom check-in device flew over and directly took away the previous Rotom. Identity verification was different for regular members and officers.

In the Rotom check-in device, Vivre Cards of members ranked as officers or higher were stored. By comparing the recorded image data, it could directly determine if the person was the real officer.

Yamato and other children received special treatment in this regard. They didn’t need an ID card and could directly use facial recognition to enter.

The reason why this method wasn’t used for everyone was mainly due to the issue of quantity. There were too many Vivre Cards when all are added up.

Moreover, if only the physical features were recorded without any proof like magnetic cards, it wouldn’t be sufficient either.

There were too many methods in this world to change one’s appearance.

Even the doors of Onigashima had been replaced with electronic doors, preventing certain people from entering places they shouldn’t, like preventing Yamato from mistakenly entering the office.

If someone with a wrong identity tried to forcefully enter, they would release electric shocks and trigger the alarms throughout Onigashima.

Time quickly approached mid-October, and Yamato’s third birthday was approaching. This would be one of her last few good days, as Kaido had already prepared an extensive training plan that would start after her third birthday.

Her days would no longer be as carefree after that, so Arceus decided to prepare a proper birthday party for her.

To do so, he dispatched several individuals to borrow a few chefs from Whole Cake Island. The gap between the chefs of Onigashima and those of Whole Cake Island was quite significant.

After all, those chefs could be considered Big Mom’s exclusive dessert experts, and if the food they made wasn’t delicious, it could cost them their lives.

Den Den Mushi connecting the Beasts Pirates with other pirate crews were all with Queen, so this task was also assigned to him.

After finishing the day’s work, Queen was about to contact Big Mom’s people, but before he could make the call, the Den Den Mushi started ringing.

“Hello, this is the Beasts Pirates.”

“I know this is the Beasts Pirates! Queen! Do you still have the stock of those bananas over there? Send us a batch, and do it quickly.”

“Perospero? Do you think I’m your subordinate? Who gave you the courage to give me orders?”

“Umm…it’s not like that. We just need a batch of goods, and we need it fast.”

Seeing that Perospero didn’t retort on the other end of the phone, Queen sensed that something was amiss.
