Chapter 220 Dean (2)
What Kamo didn't know was that his thoughts couldn't escape Plofic's Devil Fruit ability and the Haki of Wisdom and Color.
Generally speaking, since he is surrounded by his companions on the Bifur, Profic will not deliberately activate the ability of the mind fruit to listen to other people's voices. However, on Detrick Island, especially in the safe zone that may be the base camp of the bad guys, his Haki and fruit abilities were operating at full power without any psychological pressure.
adjutant?
Sure enough, the situation on Detrick Island is not as simple as it seems.
But on the surface, Profic remained calm and continued to listen to John and Edgar talking about the dean's situation.
"The dean has been doing research in the laboratory in order to conquer the witch's disease." Aiga said, "But now that you have appeared, the dean and you will definitely be able to find a way to fight the witch!"
There was excitement in his voice.
The dean's research on witch disease has been going on for eight years. There have been many achievements during this period, but no decisive progress has been made. Now, Profik, who can resist the witch's disease, appears. He thinks that Profik must have used some special treatment method to cure John's disease. Therefore, he felt that the dean and Profik would be able to deal with the witch's disease soon if they joined forces.
Profik nodded but said nothing.
He really couldn't bear to break Ajia's expectations for a better future, nor could he bear to destroy the dean's good image in their hearts.
Although it is not certain that the dean is a bad person, what is certain is that there must be a force on this island that does not want the residents to live a normal life again. Whether the dean controls this power and has some ulterior purpose to control the residents of the island, or this power controls the dean in some way, the probability of the dean staying out of the matter can be regarded as " Very little."
If there were no accidents, these poor people would probably live underground for the rest of their lives, and even their descendants would not be able to escape the same fate. Profik didn't know how things on this island were resolved in the original timeline. However, now that he has come to this island, he will definitely remove all obstacles and help the residents of the island return to life on the ground.
"Besides the dean, are there any other important people in your safe area?" Profic asked pretending to be casual.
Now that we already know that there is a strong man in this safe zone, we should naturally get as much information as possible in advance.
"Oh," John said casually, "and Mr. Odyssey, he is the adjutant of the safe zone. He is responsible for managing the safe zone on weekdays. When the dean is away, he is responsible for daily affairs."
John thought for a while and added: "Besides, Mr. Odyssey is really strong! There were several times when the witch almost broke through the base. Thanks to Mr. Odyssey, we were able to persevere. However, that was already a day. It happened years ago..."
"Ah, that must be a great man too." Profic then asked, "Can we see him later too?"
"That's not clear," John said. "Mr. Odyssey is also very busy. Are you interested in him?"
"Just asking," Profik shook his head and turned the topic back to the dean - if he continued to ask, he would be suspected.
"You said that the dean is very busy. If we just go over there, can we see him?"
Aijia said very confidently: "In normal times, it is indeed not easy to see the dean. But you are the only person who can cure the diseases spread by the witch. If the dean knows, he will definitely be willing to see you."
Profik nodded, and he also felt that there was a high probability that he would be able to see the dean this time. After all, Profic is ostensibly the only person who can cure diseases spread by witches, although his treatment actually restores people to a healthy state through the fruit's ability, which is a special method that cannot be popularized on a large scale.
But the top leaders of the safe zone definitely don't know this. In their view, Profik is the only person who can cure the disease spread by the witch, and the only person who can sabotage their plan.
In any case, the higher-ups on the island had to ask the dean to see him. However, the purpose of the meeting was not to discuss with him how to cure the diseases spread by the witch, but to get rid of him so that they could continue to maintain their rule.
Even Aiga, John and others who know the existence of Profik will become targets of elimination. After all, these people do not belong to the upper echelons of the island.
Of course, Profic would not tell Edgar and John these things, let alone whether they would believe that the dean they had always respected was a bad person. Even if they really believed it, they couldn't do much.
Soon, Aiga brought Profik to a gate. There is a huge but somewhat shabby plaque hanging on the door with the words "Institute" written on it. At the door, there is a sign with many precautions written densely on it. The most conspicuous one is "Please do not break into the institute at will."
The gate is similar to the lift gate of the base. There is a phone bug on the left and right sides above the door monitoring the situation outside.
Seeing someone coming to the door, one of the phone bugs turned its head, faced Ajia, and said, "Aijia, captain of the purification team, what are you doing here? Is there an accident in the mission?"
Ajia walked forward excitedly and said: "While we were on a mission, we met an outsider who could cure the disease spread by the witch. He cured John's disease! We want to bring John to the dean. After checking, if he is really cured of the disease, we may be able to cooperate with outsiders to solve the problem of disease transmission in one fell swoop, so that we can return to life on the ground."
The surveillance phone bug's eyes moved swiftly, first scanning John, and then shifting his gaze to Profic, focusing on him very humanely. It gave Profik the feeling as if someone was really staring at him.
After a while, a voice came from the surveillance phone: "John, Edgar, and outsiders, please come in. The rest can go back."
Then, the door slowly opened to both sides, and the three of them walked into the building one after another. Then, the door slowly closed again. Kamo and others did not go in, but were blocked from the door.
After entering the institute, Profik's spirit immediately became tense, and he was ready to activate the fruit's ability and fight at any time.
