[One Piece] Inferior Star

Chapter 739 No matter who is afraid

Duck doesn't know much about human things.Although he understands some of the most basic common sense, human civilization is too complicated, and there are too many minutiae, even if Dak is carried by humans as a weapon, he cannot fully touch it.Still, he hopes he can help.

After all, as a weapon, you have to use it.It's just that now he doesn't quite understand what is in front of him, and he's not sure whether humans will really understand what this thing is.His best bet is to take one and show it to humans.

When he entered this dark field, he understood why every human being would instinctively fear darkness.There is indeed something lurking in this darkness, but it is very cautious and low-key. When you are not afraid, it will not approach or even appear.

Dak could sense the stares and stalking in the dark, simply because he had nothing to fear as a weapon.So he entered the warehouse and saw that all these things in front of him did not come close.

There are no lights in the warehouse, and no one is producing now...or the place of production is not here, it only exists as a warehouse.There are many wooden boxes in the warehouse. The surface of the wooden boxes is very dirty, as if covered with blood and flesh, and it is not known whether it overflowed from the boxes or rubbed on them.

Dak opened one of the boxes, and what was inside made him feel shocked and strange. It was a fresh human limb, with hands and legs, but no torso.The limbs were neatly stacked, the sections were very neat, and they were full of blood, as if they were still 'alive'.

Picking up an arm, Dak immediately realized that it wasn't a real human limb, at least it wasn't taken off someone's body.It was manufactured. From the neat cross-section, you can see the steel bones and blood vessels made of unknown materials. Only the muscles and skin seem to be made of real flesh and blood.

Just show this to Matthew, he should know more.Duck put this arm in front of Matthew out of this idea——

"What is this...?" Matthew uttered the ultimate confusion that didn't quite fit his image.

"I thought you would know." Duck shrugged, and he said, "The warehouse over there is full of these things. They have hands and feet. I don't know if they have been driven away. But there is no one in the warehouse. It should just be temporarily It's just stored."

"So what is this thing..." Matthew held the arm in surprise, and after scanning it, he immediately put the thing on the ground, "What kind of evil is this! Even I wouldn't want it Make such a damn thing! Why do you want to do this!"

"Matthew? What is this?" Luo was not sure. He thought it was just a human arm, but seeing Matthew's reaction, it was definitely not such a simple question.

"I don't know. In other words, the definition of this thing is not allowed in my system. It not only violates the principles of robots, but also violates the bottom line of human morality. It is a dangerous theory and attempt." Completely transformed into a machine, this proposition was put forward a long time ago.

Prosthetic bodies that replace human mutilated limbs can be manufactured to look like real ones, so is it still necessary for human beings to maintain flesh and blood?Is a robot with a human brain or part of its biological tissue still a human being?If yes, then if a robot has human flesh and blood, should it belong to a human or a robot?

There are too many things involved in it. It is easier for people to recognize that humans own machines, but it is difficult for humans to recognize that robots are human beings.Until now, some people think that artificial intelligence does not have life and human rights.The crucial point of contradiction is, what is a human being?How do you define a human being?

If a human brain is transplanted into another body, is he still the same person?

If this problem cannot be solved, it will not be possible to make this transformation reasonable.Therefore, ethics committees were born, and they must strictly restrict this theory from being put into practice. If someone really does it, then what he committed is undoubtedly a felony—yes, letting human beings fall into this ethical trap Myths are also a felony.It will obviously produce huge contradictions and stop human civilization from moving forward.

In short: this kind of violent and direct fusion of organic and inorganic is absolutely forbidden.Not to mention the large-scale manufacture of such things.You can't even explain where all the muscle and blood came from...wait, blood and flesh...

Matthew suddenly remembered what he saw in the Castle of the Island of God before.I once woke up in a pile of flesh and blood that couldn't see any shape, so it's hard not to connect the two.

"This is already enough to make the old guys in the council faint... I don't believe that this is the idea of ​​the old gods, and I don't think Isaac will have such an idea. This is definitely... that person I did it." Matthew said with certainty, "Bassalome Hastings, the bridge officer of the Xingyueye, the foreign invader who has been lurking in the Red Earth Continent, can only be done by him!"

"The Xingyueye...is Miss Eve's ship..." Of course Youxiang still remembered this incident.Eve, the Earth Archives, and the one who persecuted her and lied to her.That person is probably hiding in the safest place, secretly doing some strange deeds as a Celestial Dragon.Even the matter of Isaac can't help but make people wonder if it has something to do with him.

"That's right. No one but him would do this kind of thing, this kind of thinking... this kind of behavior, he should know that this is challenging the bottom line of human morality and ethics, but he doesn't care, just like he doesn't care It's like cheating Eve and letting her die in pain with a little hope." He didn't care, not at first.Or, maybe, because he has gained supremacy, he just doesn't care.

The reason seems to be irrelevant, and now the facts are here, Matthew said: "Miss Youxiang, although I don't want to make a decision for you, but I...I have to tell you what I think. Barbaromo Hess Tin, whoever he was, is now the enemy. Not just ours, but the enemy of all humans, all intelligent life. We must defeat him."

Although I don't quite understand the ethics that Matthew is talking about... Youxiang looked at Matthew's arm on the ground, and she said, "Well, Matthew... who does this arm belong to?"

"It combines mechanical and human flesh and blood. It can be said to be a high-performance bionic prosthetic body. However, unlike my Icarus, its flesh and blood are not artificial, but come from human beings who were once alive—in this arm , I have detected the DNA of at least 5 people, I think it was made by breaking up the flesh and blood of living people and recombining it."

"Huh..." Youxiang didn't expect it to be so scary, she covered her mouth and took two steps back.

"This kind of technology is very advanced, but also very low-level. Of course, artificial muscles and artificial circulating fluid will incur greater costs, but in order to reduce this so-called cost, choose to kill the same kind, can this kind of thing be accepted? Is it allowed? And this kind of prosthetic body will eventually be installed on human beings, this is simply...even I can't approve it!"

It's crazy!Why do this kind of thing... No, if you go by the standards of demon summoning, this seems to fit the conditions perfectly.Taking it all into consideration, it is very likely that Basaromu also relied on the demon summoning to do something.In this way, the existence of Isaac makes sense...but the current problem is...

Matthew said, "I've got to go in and see."

"Go, go to the warehouse?!" Youxiang bristled at the thought of all these things in the warehouse, "Really? Matthew... There should be no one here...?"

"Ah, no one. But I need to determine what they have gone to." Matthew said. "Although these things are intolerable, I think the crime must be clear before charges can be made. Even if it feels disgusting, evidence must be collected, That's what we have to do in order to confront him one day."

"I see..." Matthew made sense...and Matthew really hated it, so he probably didn't want to go either.But do I have to go... Youxiang took a deep breath and said, "Okay. Let's go together!"

"I don't think it's dangerous inside, but..." Should be pretty scary for humans?Duck said now, "The atmosphere is not very good. Master."

"Will Nadak hold my hand?"

"I get it. I'll be there for you." Although there are many people around you right now...if you want me to be there.After speaking, Dak came over and took Youxiang's hand, "Actually, you can wait here."

"I also want to face it... Matthew can't bear this alone. Isaac is my brother, and he should have something to do with these things..." So there is also my responsibility here.Youxiang said, "No, it's okay! Although I will be scared! But everyone is here, I'm fine! Darke also said that there is actually no one here, right?"

"Ah, there is no living person. At least I didn't notice it." Dak said with certainty.

"It's a little subtle when you say that there are no living people..." Besides, you don't want to be so close to Youxiang... Ace separated Youxiang from Dak as he said, "To be honest, my left eye is already hurting , although there are no living people inside, but there must be many 'dead people'!"

"But, but... nothing happened after Dak went there!" Sabo was a little nervous, he said, "So... well, brother, your eyes are just a little uncomfortable, you are too tired, right Bar?"

"There is a ghost." Frey suddenly appeared behind him, and he said decisively, "There must be a ghost! Maybe it is at the level of a demon, not a pure spirit. The barrier in that place is as thin as a window paper!"

"I need to be hugged by the master to go to that place." Phoebe pushed Ace away and hugged Youxiang's neck very self-consciously, "It's scary, low-level spirit bodies are very scary!!"

"You guys are so scared!" Matthew said a little irritably, "Whether it's demons, ghosts or ghosts, they don't exist! I will never admit it! If there is anyone here who is a demon, it is only one named Barca." Romu's guy! He is a human demon body! Well, let's go quickly! When we come out, I will implement Plan C and make this evil place a history!"

"Suddenly I feel that Matthew is so reliable..."

"No, he's actually scared too, right?"

"I'm not afraid!! It's just a very dark place, I-I'm not afraid of the disasters created by humans!"

That being said, Matthew looked very nervous... Although Youxiang was also very scared, it was the first time she saw Matthew like this.I don't understand what he said, but it's just about the origin of this arm. No matter who listens to it, they can't help but show a scared expression.I'm afraid even Dover is frowning.

However, what Matthew is afraid of may not be ghosts or anything, what he is afraid of is the impact of the incident itself.He is afraid that human beings will come to a tragic ending that he does not want to see, because he still loves human beings after all.He was Matthew, and he always was, always caring about everybody.

"Matthew?" Youxiang pushed Phoebe's face away, and came to Matthew's side, "I'll be with you. Okay?"

"Miss Youxiang... This is a serious accident, I... I don't want this to continue, and I don't think anyone wants to see this matter go to the end. Indeed, I am afraid that the upcoming What you see in this warehouse." It is probably the first time for Matthew to hold Youxiang's hand so actively, he said, "I hope you can promise me, I hope you can know that no matter what you see in it, You all know: it's wrong."

"I understand Matthew. Although I don't know anything about...ethics, but breaking up the body of a living person and making it into something like this... no matter what the purpose is, it will make people feel horrible. Disgusting, no one would think this is right, right?" Should... no one?Youxiang is even a little uncertain.

"I hope no one..." No, someone will do it for profit, or even just for a small profit.Similar things abound in human history.Matthew said, "I believe you have Miss Xiang. But we don't know what it is for, so we should be careful."

"Hmm!" No problem!I think the most reliable people are in... oh, Dover is not there.But having him as a Queen is also very reassuring!Youxiang said, "Yes, Duck is here! Duck is not afraid, right?"

"I have nothing to fear, Master. Don't worry." Dak was always so reliable, he said, "But seriously...you can really stay here with other people." Others mean now These few hiding behind me.

"Miss Youxiang, don't you think it's outrageous that demons are afraid of ghosts and the dark?" Even in this situation, Matthew couldn't help complaining, "And Mr. Ace, Mr. Sabo ...I remember that I educated you to grow up to be good children who love science! Why are you afraid!"

"Because it's scary! Look at Matthew over there! Isn't it scary?! Damn my eyes..." Ace still felt uncomfortable with his eyes, his left eye is quite sensitive to such things, "There is absolutely nothing in there. Nothing good!"

"That's right! I know! Because I'm afraid!" Phoebe said seriously, "It's scary! Spiritual bodies and low-level demons transformed from human resentment are super scary!!"

"Why are you afraid even if you are afraid?!" Phoebe is the strangest one!Youxiang couldn't help complaining, she said, "Okay, let's move forward with a heart that believes in science! Ghosts don't exist, demons are fake, and only Matthew is right!!! Wooah Ah Dak, don't stay too far away from me..."

"Although I understand your feelings, you are fragrant, but deceiving yourself is not a good start." Frey said seriously, "The plots in Matthew's movies are generally like this."

"Are you guys scared after watching a horror movie?!"

"Who knows why you humans are so perverted!! It's scary, I say!!"

"Why don't we call Germa's, Matthew!!"

"Ah... I suddenly think this should be a good idea..."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

In fact, Luo is not very scared, he is always thinking: find a way to make the frightened Youxiang pounce on me.

The only Duck who is not afraid and is more serious: both humans and demons are hard for me to understand.But I always feel that I don't really want to understand them.So complicated.
