The steel giant standing proudly on the ground is the not-so-famous GP02 Gundam from Gundam 0083.

 

Its owner, known as the 'Nightmare of Solomon,' is more famous than the Gundam itself, and even the phrase, 'Solomon, I have returned!' is more well-known.

 

Compared to the 'Big Refrigerator' (GPO3) from the same series, the GP02 is not a Gundam with particularly excellent performance.

 

As a heavy machine, it extended the features of the RX-78, emphasizing versatility in mobility and close combat capabilities.

 

However, due to the core objective of the 'GP Project,' which was to equip it with specialized weapons, the GP02's versatility was greatly reduced.

 

Its standard equipment is limited to only two head vulcans, a large shield, and two beam sabers.

 

Its armament is frighteningly scarce.

 

Its price is absurdly high.

 

The fully armed GP03 Dendrobium from the same series completely outperforms the GP02 in terms of performance, yet it costs only 70,000 virtual evaluation points.

 

Furthermore, as a UC timeline mobile suit using a Minovsky thermonuclear reactor, the GP02 is not a semi-perpetual motion machine like Barbatos.

 

Although the nuclear fusion reactor still provides immense energy, it still requires resupply after each mission to generate enough Minovsky particles to meet the requirements for nuclear fusion.

 

It can be said that the GP02, this incredibly expensive mobile suit, is extremely poor value for money in all respects.

 

For the same price, Shin could even buy a full-armor Bael, or purchase a Ptolemy I mothership without a GN Solar Furnace for 30,000 fewer evaluation points.

 

But Shin still bought the GP02 Gundam without hesitation.

 

For no other reason than that purchasing this extremely low-cost-effective Gundam mobile suit not only provided Shin with the complete knowledge of Minovsky physics he needed but also included a full set of armaments.

 

In addition to the two beam sabers and two vulcans, it came with one more item-the MK82 Nuclear Fusion Launcher.

 

This was no ordinary nuclear bomb, but the ultimate killing machine used by Anavel Gato in the Stardust Project to instantly wipe out hundreds of Federation warships, directly turning two-thirds of the Earth Federation's space fleet in the UC Era into cosmic dust!

 

The activation principle of the MK82 nuclear fusion bomb is to use a powerful laser reaction from the Aloka rocket launcher to activate the internal Minovsky particles, causing a reaction during collision, resulting in a super hydrogen bomb that causes extreme destruction through 'light nuclear fusion reaction'!

 

Perhaps you have no intuitive comparison for the destructive power of this ultimate weapon.

 

To put it this way, the atomic bombs 'Fat Man' and 'Little Boy' dropped by the Americans on Hiroshima and Nagasaki had yields of 20 kilotons and 17 kilotons of TNT equivalent, causing a lifelong nightmare for the Japanese.

 

The known largest modern hydrogen bomb has a yield of only 15 million tons, while the MK82's yield is a staggering 48 million tons.

 

The most terrifying thing is that the MK82's nuclear explosion does not rely on external damage caused by a shockwave, but rather by releasing internal Minovsky particles to cause a large-scale annihilation of Mega Particle streams.

 

This is why Gato was able to cause such massive destruction in space using a nuclear bomb.

 

Shin dared to say boldly that the destructive power of the single MK82 in his hand could utterly annihilate every unit in One Piece.

 

He was even confident that he could use this MK82 to completely destroy Mary Geoise and the entire Red Line peak-he didn't know if Imu would die, but the World Government's central hub would be immediately razed to the ground, and the Celestial Dragons would be instantly extinct!

 

Isn't that exciting?

 

Shin almost couldn't resist launching it at Mary Geoise when he started operating it.

 

But he restrained his excited emotions.

 

Even if he was going to nuclear bomb Mary Geoise, it wasn't now.

 

He would only use his trump card once, and it must completely change this world!

 

Change isn't just destruction.

 

As he told Shiki, overthrowing the World Government isn't just about destroying Mary Geoise; it's about eliminating this massive organization that has ruled the world for eight hundred years, from all aspects!

 

That requires a long and detailed plan.

 

After listening to Shin's plan, Shiki showed a thoughtful and interested expression.

 

If conditions allowed, he certainly didn't want to die; he wanted to live and continue to conquer the world.

 

If he had this opportunity, he would do it without hesitation.

 

"Why should I trust you?"

 

Shiki looked at Shin and asked the most crucial question.

 

"Because in my plan, Mr. Shiki, you are just the icing on the cake, not indispensable," Shin said calmly.

 

"Using your head to make me a Warlord is the most perfect manifestation of the plan, but it doesn't matter if I don't have this Warlord status.

 

It doesn't prevent me from doing what I want to do."

 

"Dealing with businessmen like Tesoro, Doflamingo, and Morgans is best with Warlord status, but without it, I just have to give up a little profit."

 

"I can even use the technology I have to exchange for a recruitment position with the World Government. If I can't be a Warlord, I can just go to the Special Science Unit and work with Vegapunk."

 

"The result won't change; only the process and the success rate will."

 

"You're not afraid of death, kid." Shiki lit a cigar, looked at the calm Shin, and narrowed his eyes.

 

"You have the ability to make others die in your place. Let me guess... how many such 'Prayers' do you have?"

 

-Two, but soon only one will remain.

 

He needed to make a few more before capturing Shiki.

 

Shin thought to himself but just watched Shiki silently.

 

"Alright, I agree to your plan!" Shiki laughed heartily, his eyes filled with domineering arrogance.

 

"You're right, kid. With that kind of weapon technology in your hand, you don't need to deceive me. The Warlord position is just a stepping stone for you, but I'm curious, what exactly do you want to do?"

 

Shiki couldn't see through Shin.

 

If he executed his plan exactly, what benefit would this guy ultimately gain?

 

Some people strive to conquer the world, some aim to reach Laugh Tale, and some want world peace, but what this guy is doing is directly smashing the entire board.

 

In the end, he will offend everyone he can possibly offend.

 

The world will become extremely lively, and everyone will cooperate to slaughter him.

 

"Become a public enemy of the world, I guess." Shin shrugged and laughed playfully.

 

"Destroying the world is super fun~~~~ Although I'm not that enthusiastic about it, it's a job that has to be done."

 

"Hmph, a job..." Shiki snorted softly, closed his eyes for a moment, and then suddenly smiled.

 

"Heh, that's not bad. It's time to go back and see old friends."

 

"Please take the Seastone handcuffs yourself, and also, please lend me a few of your most capable subordinates. I need to make a few more 'materials'."

 

Shin casually took advantage while asking with concern,

 

"Oh, by the way, will this island fall down when you wear the Seastone handcuffs? I might need to use this as a temporary base later."

 

Shiki glanced at him and snorted coldly.

 

"Of course not. Seastone can only restrict my ability performance, not the Devil Fruit ability itself. As long as I don't completely lose consciousness, the ability I maintain won't disappear."

 

"That's good." Shin smiled lightly.

 

"Wishing you a smooth half-year of prison life~~"
