On the first-floor living room, Rowen rummaged through the fridge and took out two bottles of cola.

“I don’t have any tea, is it okay to drink this?”

“I… it’s fine!”

As a guest at Rowen’s house for the first time, Caesar seemed somewhat restrained. It was the first time he had seen Rowen since his promotion to Vice Admiral, and the shock in Caesar’s heart was immense!

Apart from Zephyr and others, he was a witness who had seen Rowen go from a recruit in the recruit camp to his current position! The terrifying speed of his promotion completely shattered all of Caesar’s preconceptions!

Wait!

If Rowen becomes a Vice Admiral then, does that mean?

Holding the cola, Caesar asked with an anxious expression on his face, “Rowen… Vice Admiral, are you going to be assigned to the G-10 branch?!”

“Oh? Has the news already spread?”

Rowen leaned back on the sofa, raising an eyebrow in response to Caesar’s words, “That’s right, I didn’t expect the establishment of the G-10 branch to go so smoothly. It has only been three months!”

Suddenly, Rowen noticed that Caesar’s expression was somewhat off. While he felt proud, there was also a hint of melancholy on his face so he immediately asked, “Do you know something, Mr. Caesar?”

“Huh? Well…”

Caesar sighed and nodded, “Yes.”

It all started when Rowen went to eliminate the threats on Jaya Island. After signing various trade agreements with Sengoku, the “God” of Angel Island, Gan Fall, immediately returned to Angel Island with his people to prepare for the trade.

Now, due to the intervention of Cricket, the conflict between the residents of Angel Island and the Shandians has temporarily ceased. However, no one can be certain about what might happen if the situation continues to drag on. It would be best to establish the g10 branch as soon as possible!

However, the establishment of the g10 branch was not something that could be achieved overnight, even with the Headquarters’ advanced preparations.

Considering the vastness of the sea, the long transportation time, and the difficulties in handling heavy materials, it was not easy to expedite the process.

Therefore, Gan Fall, faced with the first batch of modified transport airships sent to Sky Island, did not rush to prepare Dials for trade with the Marines.

Instead, he provided construction materials like Island Cloud to the Marines, taking advantage of the distance advantage between Angel Island and Jaya Island to assist in establishing the g10 branch.

That is to say, the G-10 branch is not a fortress built with stone and bricks, but rather, like the houses of Sky Island residents, it is primarily made of Island Cloud as the main material!

Caesar’s melancholy lies in this…

Island Cloud, this type of amazing cloud, caught Vegapunk’s attention. After obtaining a few pieces with someone’s help, Vegapunk immersed himself in studying them.

He became so engrossed that he fell behind in the development of the Plasma Cannon, making it the first and perhaps the only time in Caesar Clown’s life that he surpassed Vegapunk!

“Vegapunk called for me… he must want to perfect the Pacifista by researching the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, right?”

As Rowen pondered, he understood Vegapunk’s intentions for seeking him. He had also entertained the idea of collaborating with Vegapunk, but they had missed each other several times.

Vegapunk was also an interesting fellow. Even after he was faced with repeated encounters and missed opportunities with Rowen, he refused to admit defeat.

Even though Sengoku could have simply issued a notice if Vegapunk had gone to him, he preferred to try it himself time and time again.

Perhaps it was this stubbornness that forged him into the most top-notch scientist of his time, while Rowen could enjoy his peace and quiet.

However, the future was uncertain. Rowen was about to assume the position of Base Head in the G-10 branch, and Vegapunk had plenty of time to find him. As the saying goes, you can’t outrun the temple, no matter how fast the monk runs.

“So, what about my Armstrong… uh, Super Electromagnetic Cannon?”

“It’s already completed! I came here for this very reason!”

When it came to his own project, Caesar’s eyes sparkled. “By studying your blood, I successfully completed the Electromagnetic Cannon! And the results after completion are even more astounding than I imagined! The maximum range reaches an astonishing 430 kilometers, with a speed of 5000 m/s!”

430 kilometers?!

5000 m/s?!!

Rowen took a sharp breath, these numbers were truly terrifying!

His Supercharged Travel currently only reached speeds of a few thousand meters per second, but it was limited by the intensity and distribution of the atmospheric currents, making it impossible to achieve its theoretical maximum speed.

However, the Super Electromagnetic Cannon was different. It was just a weapon with a fixed initial propulsion force and was minimally affected by external disturbances. Once launched, it could maintain its terrifying speed of 5000 m/s!

At that speed, it could be considered just a gust of air, but its power is enough to split mountains and rocks!

The more Caesar spoke, the more excited he became. He stood up, waving his hands and feet, creating a dance-like motion amidst the swirling smoke, resembling a cheap cowboy.

“Do you know, Rowen, even though I didn’t have the opportunity to try it, but if that legendary Yonkō (Four Emperors) Kaido stood in front of the Electromagnetic Cannon, he might be blasted back miles and it’s also possible that a hole would be blown through his body in an instant!”

“Within its range, the Electromagnetic Cannon is an invincible symbol!!!”

“It’s the Super Electromagnetic Cannon…”

Rowen corrected Caesar’s wording, feeling a mix of emotions.

Truly, the One Piece World, known for its frequent emergence of advanced technology, deserved its reputation. This Super Electromagnetic Cannon would be at the forefront of technology even on Earth!

However, he suddenly realized two issues and calmly asked.

“Then… what about the cost? How is the energy problem solved?”

“Since your fruit ability has been transferred, the Super Electromagnetic Cannon can be charged with any electrical energy. Just install a few generators in the g10 branch to provide sufficient power. I’ve looked at the topography map of Sky Island, and wind power and hydroelectric power would work! As for the cost… um…”

Caesar suddenly fell silent, turned his head, and under Rowen’s cold gaze, awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

“It’s a massive weapon, you know! It can’t be classified as a conventional weapon, so isn’t it normal for it to be expensive?!”
