----------
Just then, the stage lights changed dramatically, and colorful lasers swept across the venue.
Queen, holding a microphone, moonwalked onto the stage, his sunglasses reflecting the neon lights. "Yo! I'm Queen, who's been practicing for two and a half years!"
He twisted his fat body, doing a robot dance, his head separating from his body, even his fingers could turn into a microphone.
"I love singing, dancing, rapping, and mechanical modification! Music!"
"Let's get hyped!"
The number of viewers in the live stream soared. The live stream itself wasn't important, but lucky bags were given out every now and then. Queen was really generous with his money!
Viewers flooded into the live stream, and the atmosphere was instantly ignited.
Suddenly, a green lightning bolt flashed across the screen.
"North Blue Vinsmoke Family sent 'Retro Headband ×1'."
A flashing green hat and scarf suddenly appeared on Queen's head. Combined with his stiff robot dance moves, he looked like a fat penguin struck by lightning.
The comments exploded instantly.
"Hahaha, help!"
"Germa 66 is awesome!"
"Lord Queen is glowing green!"
"Green Hat Man, Queen!"
"..."
Before Queen could react, more than a dozen green hats were thrown at him one after another. Every step he took, a new one appeared on his head, non-stop!
"North Blue Vinsmoke Family sent 'Retro Headband ×1'"
"North Blue Vinsmoke Family sent 'Retro Headband ×1'"
"North Blue Vinsmoke Family sent..."
The Vinsmoke Family's message floated high. "Trash mechanical modification! True technology is genetic modification!" followed by a mocking snail emoji.
King in the backstage held his forehead, the corner of his mouth under the mask was splitting from laughter. Hahaha, someone finally started to punish this guy.
Jack choked on his drink, spitting it out through his nostrils. He couldn't believe he encountered Big Brother Queen's arch-nemesis at this party, and they were even spamming green hats.
Kaido, however, watched with great interest, downing another barrel of sake. "Worororororo.... Interesting!"
Only Orochi remained slumped in his seat, everything around him felt out of place, like he was unnecessary.
"Damn it, the real technology is mechanical modification!" Queen shouted from the stage, a hint of anger in his voice. "What do you know? Flesh is weak, mechanical ascension is the only way!"
He continued to dance on stage, sweating heavily. The green hat effect flapped up and down with his movements, making him look like a fat green-headed fly.
The gift amount in the live stream had already exceeded 200 million Berry, and the Vinsmoke Family's green hat donations were still flooding the screen....
The name Green Hat Man, Queen had truly earned it.
...
On Egghead Island,
In a massive laboratory high above the island, Vegapunk's main body stood quietly inside a huge spherical device. This device was an independent space, giving off a cold, metallic shine.
Dozens of holographic screens floated around, flickering with light, displaying various complex data and information in the form of holographic images.
Vegapunk wore a protective hood, the clear lenses displaying countless data streams scrolling rapidly across them.
"Still no good..." He lowered his head slightly, his voice tired and helpless, muttering to himself.
This was his eighth attempt to take apart the mysterious phone using a laser cutter.
Before this, he had made numerous careful preparations and attempts, each time filled with hope, yet the results were always disappointing.
Slowly raising the laser cutter in his hand, the thin laser beam was like a sharp flash of lightning, dazzling the eyes.
As he carefully aimed the laser beam at the phone, the entire laboratory seemed to fall silent, leaving only the faint hum of the laser cutter and his own steady breathing.
However, the moment the high-energy laser beam touched the phone's casing, something unexpected happened.
The seemingly ordinary phone casing acted like an incredibly smooth mirror, perfectly reflecting the laser beam.
The reflected laser beam bounced uncontrollably around the laboratory, eventually burning a charred hole in the strong wall, giving off a sharp burnt smell.
Just as Vegapunk was feeling surprised and confused by this unexpected situation, the Shaka satellite behind him suddenly broke the silence.
"Main body, the Emperor's party live stream has started," Shaka's voice was low.
Vegapunk sighed softly, slowly extended a finger, and gently swiped across the space in front of him. In an instant, the live stream appeared before his eyes.
On the screen, Queen's iconic figure was particularly eye-catching.
With his head full of green hats, his comical appearance formed a stark contrast with his arrogant attitude at the moment.
He pointed his mechanical arm forcefully at the Vinsmoke Family's comments, roaring. "My mechanical modification is the strongest technology!"
And Germa 66 was not to be outdone, their reply with lightning effects quickly flashed across the screen. "Genetic technology is the king!"
"Ignorant."
Vegapunk gently pushed his hood, the action light, yet revealing his dislike for both their viewpoints.
His fingers tapped rapidly on the virtual keyboard, and as he operated, a comment popped up on the screen.
"The true meaning of technology is neither mechanical nor genetic, but the key to creating a future for all humanity!"
However, this deep comment was instantly drowned out by the massive volume of comments.
Those comments surged like a tide, burying Vegapunk's comment, and it was not noticed at all.
In the laboratory, the other satellites saw this scene and shook their heads together, letting out sighs of helplessness.
Suddenly, Queen in the live stream did something new.
He excitedly threw out several lucky bags worth ten million Berry, instantly attracting the attention of countless viewers, and the live stream went wild again!
The declining online viewership immediately bounced back, rising sharply.
Lilith couldn't help but complain. "This fat guy really understands human weakness."
Her voice was full of anger and dissatisfaction, despising Queen's behavior of using money to attract attention.
York licked her lips, a greedy glint in her eyes. "If only we could use this marketing method for scientific research fundraising..."
But Vegapunk's main body was not disturbed by the outside noise. He was still staring at the mysterious phone, lost in deep thought.
Behind him, the latest computer was still humming, trying to crack the phone's core algorithm.
However, no matter how hard it tried, it was ultimately useless, unable to figure out anything.
"What is the origin of this phone? I have no clue at all!"
Vegapunk was amazed. He was the world's smartest brain, yet now he was helpless against a small phone. This was the first time he had felt so powerless!
