A pacifist star suddenly appeared behind Skyler. The replica of White Fang in his hand was sinking into Skyler's back, and Skyler's body stiffened at this moment.

Skyler's head fell back, his mouth opened involuntarily, and a sharp sound came from the bottom of his throat. His lungs were still working hard, but Skyler could no longer adjust.

She couldn't feel the existence of her body. Only her head was normal, but it was also very weak. This feeling was like a high-level paraplegia. Her spine was disconnected at a certain section, which made her think

It is impossible to escape.

Skyler's body's recovery power is very powerful, so powerful that any injury that is not fatal on the spot can be healed quickly. Even if she is willing to use life return, she will recover faster.

But after all, she is not an immortal like Im, and she cannot change her own structure. A broken spine is still a serious injury to her. She may be able to heal on her own, but only if she is given an environment to heal.

Qunxing's knife was just stuck there. No matter how strong Skyler's body was in recovering, there was nothing he could do at this time. Even if the wound had started to stop bleeding, the problem could not be solved without pulling out the short blade.

However, the feeling of weakness that enveloped Skyler quickly faded away. Enduring the insecurity caused by his body's loss of response, Skyler said with some surprise: "Stars? Haven't you been thrown to other times?"

The moment she was stabbed, Skyler knew who could stab her. After all, there were not many people who mastered this technique. It was a domineering technique of seeing and hearing.

It was taught to her by Sengoku back then, and even Sengoku himself was unable to cover himself with his domineering aura while walking. The only one who could do it was Skyler, who promoted it.

The pacifist stars have gathered the characteristics of many strong people in this sea, including Mihawk, Hancock, etc., including Skyler.

Therefore, Skyler is not surprised at all that Qunxing can use the same domineering power as her, but... she is still too arrogant.

Although he had already guessed Yi Mu's identity in his mind, he still subconsciously ignored the prototype of Yi Mu that existed at the moment.

"Cronos can only replace matter in time, but pacifists are never individuals. They seem to be individuals, but they are just an indepen- dent part of a whole, so they cannot be replaced by Cronus.

"

The ghost binding threads on Im's body relaxed weakly, and she slowly stood up and explained to Skyler, staring at Skyler's blood-red eyes with ripples turbulent one by one.

Im walked to Skyler and turned her tilted head back upright. Skyler looked at Im's changing eyes and was a little surprised, and said:

"No wonder. I should have reacted from the moment I saw you. These strange eyes should not be something you can have. You are not a black sword temperer.

Without the superposition of the black knife's will, you shouldn't have such eyes, then there will only be another situation."

"Souls overlap."

Im picked up Skyler's words at the right time. Circle eyes are very rare. Generally, people with circle eyes are constantly related to the abnormal state of the soul.

For example, Cavendish is half asleep, Charlotte Lingling is suffering from illness, Elephant Master is talking to Momonosuke, and Mihawk and Skylar have black knives.

But the last one is different from other situations. Mihawk and Skyler have never experienced any disorder of consciousness caused by abnormal souls.

Because their black swords are tempered by themselves, the will of the black swords is an extension of their own beliefs. To put it bluntly, it is a part of themselves.

Perhaps after they die, their swords will be obtained by others, and the new holders will be in a situation similar to Cavendish, but they alone will not.

But what about Im? She is not the holder of the black knife. Of course, the will of the black knife is only what Skyler understands. It is not a professional term, and it is not only the black knife that can give birth to will.

After all, the black sword is not the only way for a swordsman. Swordsmen who follow other ways can also brand their own swords with their own strong sword power and belief, such as Durandal in Cavendish's hand.

The reason why Skyler determined that Im's circled eyes were not caused by the black sword was not only because she had never used the black sword against other famous swords that she cared about, but the more important reason was Skyler's intuition as a swordsman.

She determined that Im was not a swordsman. The reason why Im was able to use the sword and strike with swords was only because of Skyler's body.

Skyler couldn't feel any faith from Yimu's sword power. There was no breadth and no depth, because Yimu didn't have her own sword power at all. She was just exploring the power in her body, and the same was true for slashing.

in this way.

Therefore, Im's circled eyes are definitely not the product of her tempering the black sword or putting her own brand on a certain sword, but a state of overlapping souls similar to Charlotte Lingling.

What overlaps is probably what Vegapunk has researched. The countless soul prototypes can now simply be called the souls of the stars.

Stars has surpassed ordinary technological creations. She has a "soul" unprecedented in the history of technological creations. This is not an artificial retardation that Vegapunk developed for himself before, nor is it a reorganization of the code within a certain logical framework.

It is something real, just like the consciousness that humans and other intelligent life races possess.

The perfection Im pursues must not only be physical perfection, but her soul also needs to be perfected to perfection. Her own learning is simply not enough, so she needs more on-site, well-learned and trained similar consciousness.

Vegapunk's life is limited, and every time he lives, he will only create works like the stars at the last moment.

The premise for Vegapunk to create the stars is the existence of the prototypes of the stars. No matter whether Skyler is present in the stars during the unknown number of times that Im has gone through, other people will definitely be needed as research materials.

Even excluding Skyler, the stars have the characteristics of other Shichibukai. In other words, without the presence of the Shichibukai, the stars or Seraph would not have appeared.

Therefore, even if Im comes back again and again, he still needs to wait for the birth and growth of the prototype of the stars, and finally Vegapunk will create the stars based on the prototype.

Of course, Im can also use the existing information for Vegapunk to study, but with limited ingredients, how can the chef be able to do whatever he wants?

Perhaps Im has already tried it, or even tried it more than once, but the result was not satisfactory, so she will still choose the research results of Vegapunk under the natural evolution.

Just like what she said about flowers and fish, even if the conditions are the same, the final results are different, and with Im's little interference, perhaps there will be subtle changes in each historical evolution.

And the changes in Vegapunk research results brought about by these changes may be what Im needs. Of course, this change cannot be too big, otherwise Vegapunk may simply disappear.

As for why the cycle lasted for eight hundred years, perhaps it was because of O'Hara's knowledge. O'Hara was able to last for hundreds of years before it was finally destroyed. This was very unusual.

O'Hara's scholars have never concealed the fact of studying history. The Navy also warned O'Hara's scholars more than once, but now it seems that these warnings may not be warning O'Hara's scholars.

It was to attract the attention of some people, such as Vegapunk. It was only recently that Skyler learned that Vegapunk had landed in O'Hara after the O'Hara Demon Slaying Order incident.

The purpose of Bega Punk's trip to O'Hara is also very simple, which is to obtain the "ancient" knowledge. With the high profile of O'Hara's scholars, and the zero tolerance of the world government for a hundred years of blankness, O'Hara's demon-slaying order

, came too late.

The repeated warnings may be to make Vegapunk pay attention to O'Hara, and then obtain knowledge. By deciphering and learning this knowledge, his research will make a significant leap forward.

The study of the stars may have a shadow of the knowledge from O'Hara, and the source of this knowledge is also very interesting. According to Vegapunk, its author is Reed D. Richards.

Richards is the maker of Cronus, and perhaps his authority to use Cronus is even higher than that of anyone else, so even Im may not be able to restrict his actions.

Therefore, the eight-hundred-year cycle was not decided by Im's idleness, but it must be eight hundred years, from the time Richards sealed the knowledge eight hundred years ago to Vegapunk's excavation and decipherment of the knowledge.

Also, one of the points that Im just said seems to be very interesting. The stars are not individuals, but the whole. In other words, the stars that stab him in the back now are not what Im needs.

Thinking of this, Skyler twisted her neck hard. Of course, the force she exerted at this moment was only able to turn her head to the side, which Im had turned.

Skyler looked at Cronus in the damaged eyes and said: "It's not just the research results of Deborah and Richards, right? There should also be the legacy of Vegapunk."

What Im needs is not a machine like the stars, but the soul inside the machine. And where is the soul of the stars most likely to be stored? It is undoubtedly the brain removed by Vegapunk.

Of course, it is not the diseased brain tissue, but the shared brains developed by Vegapunk to make up for his cut brain, each one is like a server brain.

Hearing Skyler's words, Im didn't hide anything. He nodded. With a wave of his hand, the damaged Kronos shell opened, and the exposed parts were none other than Vegapunk's shared brain.

Looking at the part, Skyler asked: "Is Vegapunk dead now? Did you kill him?"

Skyler said this to the stars behind her, but she couldn't look back now, but as soon as Skyler said her words, Im and the stars showed anger at the same time, and the stars said:

"Dr. Vegapunk is my creator, how could I kill him?! But he is indeed dead."

"You don't know how to play Begapunk? What about Shakya, Pythagoras and the others?"

Skyler asked again. This time, the stars fell into silence. Skyler didn't need to ask any more questions. Vegapunk didn't live long in the first place and was prepared to die.

His preparation was to make six clones of himself. Now it seems that Qunxing will not take action against his real maker, Vegapunk, but there may be no psychological burden on Vegapunk's clones.

Skyler looked at the core of the shared brain in Cronus, and finally understood why she felt like she was monitoring the whole world when she gave orders.

Because Vegapunk's shared brain has a vision, it is to connect all mankind and allow all knowledge to be shared. Perhaps it is for this reason that Kronos' monitoring capabilities and real-time feedback are so powerful.

It's a pity that as the producer of Cronus, Richards did not follow Vegapunk's last wish to play the role of shared brain.

And when Kronos is in Im's hands, it will naturally become less likely to become a storage and transfer station for human knowledge around the world, but will become a tool for her to continuously integrate her soul and move towards "perfection".

And perhaps from the moment the shared brain was created, the shared brain created by Vegapunk has already connected with the shared brain in Cronus, so the stars whose souls are stored in the shared brain have already

Rebellion.

Suddenly, Skyler realized something and asked: "How did you take away my body? I'm afraid your soul is the only one left in the shared brain now, right?"

"Yes, it seems that the information in my hand is very inaccurate in my assessment of you. You are a very smart person, so you should know that you have no room for resistance now."

Im pulled out the silk threads from her body one by one, and slowly approached Skyler. Skyler frowned and asked: "What about Richards? Shouldn't he come to save me?"

"His information came from the pacifists. Did you forget it so quickly?"

Im smiling, almost face to face with Skyler, and said, "I was also a pacifist."

The feeling in her ears made Skyler's face quickly turn gloomy. She understood that the information Richards received was false, and the person he rescued was himself who had completed the soul replacement, or in other words

Im.

"Then they used my dying body to deceive Luo and ask for immortality surgery on my body. When they learned that the opponent was another me, they could only place their hope on me, hoping that the immortal me could

Defeat the immortal you.

But in fact, the person who received the ageless surgery is already you. In this way, everything is under your control, and this is how I became you.

And you can get all the research on Vegapunk of this era from Richards, taking you one step closer to perfection."

"Yes, then let you become me!"

As soon as Im finished speaking, dozens of light beams fell from the sky, covering the two of them.
Chapter completed!
