"Are we just going to give up like this? The Devil Fruits are some of the most valuable things in my world!" Pirate Renzo asked the group, unwilling to let go so easily.
There was no way they could just ignore Devil Fruits forever, right? That would be a huge waste!
"We still need to study them," Uchiha Renzo said. "What if the energy consumption isn't as high as we expected?"
"Besides, I strongly suspect that many Logia and Paramecia-type Devil Fruits are actually fragments of some rules. Their value might be even greater than we imagined!"
"Let's collect some and research them first. Eating them is out of the question! At least not until we've perfected our understanding of them."
"If we must, we can start with Zoan-types first. At the very least, we should understand the basic principles and external nature of Devil Fruits before taking any risks!"
"Also, speaking of timing, Vegapunk and Caesar Clown might still be in Punk Hazard, researching artificial Devil Fruits. If we get the chance, we should check it out!"
"If things don't work out, we can always wait. We wait until Vegapunk and the World Government abandon their research, then get the relevant technology from Caesar Clown."
"Also, we could make a move on the Vinsmoke family as well!"
Of course, all of this depended on whether Pirate Renzo was strong enough.
Pirate Renzo nodded. "It's doable! But I'll wait until I fully master Haki first. My teacher refuses to teach me no matter what..."
He sighed, feeling helpless.
He was certain that Koshiro's family, who had come from Wano to the East Blue, possessed training methods for Observation and Armament Haki.
But when he tried asking Koshiro twice, the man just brushed him off, telling him to explore the world on his own.
Renzo understood Koshiro's intentions.
It wasn't that he was stingy or unwilling to share.
He was simply worried that if Renzo learned too early, he would become overconfident and recklessly rush into the Grand Line or even the New World.
In Koshiro's eyes, Renzo was still just an eleven-year-old kid.
Allowing him to wander around the East Blue was already the limit of what he could tolerate.
He didn't want his talented disciple to meet an early end due to arrogance and recklessness.
"Do as you like!" Uchiha Renzo nodded, then turned to Eevee.
"I need you to get me the technology for Pokémon-world space backpacks and space wristbands as soon as possible. Also, bring me the technical principles of Poké Balls!"
"I want to see if I can combine these with sealing techniques to create spatial equipment!"
Without some kind of spatial storage, he felt inconvenienced.
Storage scrolls were an option, but they were small and expensive.
"Huh?" Eevee was momentarily stunned. "You're giving me way too much credit!"
"The technology for space backpacks and space wristbands is controlled by top corporations in that world. Getting it won't be easy! Give me more time!"
"However, I should be able to get the Poké Ball technology soon!"
The most advanced Poké Ball technology was difficult to obtain, but getting standard or luxury Poké Balls was still within reach.
"Alright! Just do your best and prioritize your safety!" Uchiha Renzo nodded.
Eevee, however, was curious. "If you want to merge sealing techniques with spatial equipment, wouldn't you need advanced sealing knowledge? That won't be easy to come by, right? "
"The only two sources available to you right now are Uzumaki Kushina and Orochimaru!"
Given Uchiha Renzo's relationship with Minato, he might be able to learn a bit.
But ultimately, his status as an Uchiha was a limiting factor.
Luckily, Uzumaki Kushina and Uchiha Mikoto seemed to have a good relationship.
If he tried hard enough, there might be a chance.
As for Orochimaru, that was simpler. As long as Orochimaru had the knowledge, Renzo could simply trade him some advanced genetic research data in exchange.
The only concern was whether Orochimaru had a complete collection of sealing techniques.
"That's not a problem! I can handle it!" Uchiha Renzo waved it off and then turned to Eevee.
"Also, I'm going to start researching the Flying Thunder God Technique soon. While I'm at it, I'll look into a way to merge it with psychic teleportation! You should study it too!"
"Try to see if we can develop a psychic-based Flying Thunder God Technique—essentially, a pinpoint spatial teleportation skill."
"No problem!" Eevee nodded repeatedly. "Even if you didn't mention it, I was already planning on doing that!"
They all understood this would be a great enhancement to psychic teleportation.
Since ninjutsu wasn't universally applicable across different worlds, it made sense to reverse-engineer it and integrate the concepts into skills that could function everywhere.

Highschool of the Dead + Resident Evil Crossover
"Phew! Finally done! Now, let's head out!"
Looking at the elegant, advanced aircraft in front of him—12 meters L x 3 meters W x 3 meters H—Apocalypse Renzo clapped the dust off his hands, satisfied with his work.
After a quick wash-up, he called for Saeko, Shizuka, and Rika to get ready for departure.
As they stepped into the aircraft, Minami Rika's eyes widened in amazement. "This thing is even more advanced than I imagined! Can I pilot it?" she asked eagerly.
As a woman obsessed with collecting firearms, she was naturally fascinated by this high-tech aircraft.
Even now, she was still in awe that Renzo had somehow created such an advanced flying machine out of thin air.
This little guy was becoming more and more mysterious!
Seeing her itching to take control, Renzo quickly shook his head. "Not this time! I'll build a simulation cockpit next time so you can practice first."
He wasn't about to risk everyone's lives!
For the record, he had rescued Minami Rika five days ago when the airport was on the verge of collapse.
Maybe she had seen through the selfish nature of those she was supposed to protect, or maybe she just felt she had fulfilled her duty. Either way, this time, she didn't refuse his offer to join him.
"Tch! Fine, whatever! Next time, then!" she pouted, crossing her arms. As she sat down, her posture highlighted her impressive figure.
Rika exuded a unique mix of elegance and wild beauty. With her tanned skin, any Renzo would definitely have a soft spot for her type.
Soon, the ground in the backyard of Renzo's estate began to sink about half a meter before splitting apart and retracting to the sides in a sci-fi-like manner.
At the same time, the aircraft slowly rose on a circular platform, emerging above ground.
To facilitate takeoff and landing, Renzo had modified both the backyard and his underground base.
Fantasy Creation truly was amazing!
If he had to rely on traditional construction or machinery, this project would've been a massive undertaking.
And given that the entirety of Tokonosu City—perhaps even all of Japan—was in complete chaos, such a task would have been outright impossible.
"Alright, we're off! Buckle up!"
Feeling a bit excited, Renzo activated the aircraft's optical stealth mode and piloted it into the air, setting course for America.
The aircraft was built using technology from the Gundam universe, making it incredibly advanced. The trip from Japan to Raccoon City took less than four hours.
"We should be close."
Using the onboard radar system, Renzo quickly locked onto Umbrella Corporation's base in Raccoon City.
However, he didn't fly the aircraft directly into the city. Instead, he landed in a secluded area on the outskirts.
After locking down the aircraft's system permissions, he stood up and addressed Saeko and the others. "The place is crawling with zombies, and Umbrella's surveillance AI is everywhere."
"It's too dangerous. You all stay here—I'll be back soon!"
Before they could even protest, he teleported away in a flash of light.
Shwoop!
Minami Rika: "..."
Shizuka Marikawa: "..."
"What the heck?! How could Renzo-chan just ditch us like that?! I was looking forward to exploring Raccoon City!" Shizuka pouted in disappointment.
"Are you serious?!" Minami Rika, already frustrated by Renzo's sudden departure, looked at her friend in disbelief. "Did you not hear what he said? Raccoon City is overrun with zombies! It's complete chaos! Why would you want to go sightseeing in a place like that?!"
Did she want to watch zombies eat people?
Or was she planning to offer herself as their next meal?
Honestly, sometimes Rika wanted to crack open Shizuka's head just to see what the hell was inside.
It was probably filled with nothing but nonsense.
Feeling annoyed, Rika reached out and pinched Shizuka's cheeks, stretching and tugging at them to vent her frustration.
"Mmmhh…!" Shizuka struggled, her words muffled by Rika's grip.
"Hehehe!" Saeko chuckled softly. "Renzo is only thinking about our safety. Don't be mad. Just wait here patiently. I'm sure he won't take too long! If you really want to explore, we can visit other cities that haven't been overrun yet."
Even in Japan, not every city had completely fallen. And the same went for America.
But it was only a matter of time.
Too many forces were pulling strings behind the scenes.
