"Artificial intelligence, huh? That's a great idea! I think it's absolutely necessary to master it!"
Pirate Renzo chuckled, rubbing his chin. "If I can develop an AI, wouldn't that mean I could build a fully automated modern industrial base? Then I could construct my own high-tech ship and have the AI manage all the automated controls!"
"I could even launch satellites! That way, I wouldn't need to learn navigation, wouldn't have to worry about getting lost, and I wouldn't struggle to operate a larger ship by myself!"
A luxurious, fully automated modern ship—that's the dream! Pirate Renzo was already daydreaming about it.
Uchiha Renzo cruelly shattered his illusion. "Keep dreaming! Eevee can pull this off because its world is already modernized—it has computers, networks, and an industrial foundation. Does the One Piece world have any of that?"
"Not even close! So stop fantasizing and stick to wooden ships!"
Sure, the One Piece world has some seriously wacky tech, but can Pirate Renzo even access it? Besides, building a computer requires a solid industrial foundation.
Forget computers—he doesn't even have enough steel to build an ironclad battleship!
This isn't a world with modern steel manufacturing.
Pirate Renzo froze for a moment, then slowly nodded. "Damn... You're right."
This isn't just about technology—it's about infrastructure!
Even in the Marvel universe, Howard Stark had already theorized the Arc Reactor's new core element decades before Tony Stark made it a reality. Why? Because the industrial conditions at the time couldn't support its creation.
It took decades for the technology to catch up!
"Looks like, aside from Eevee and Apocalypse Renzo, the rest of us shouldn't get our hopes up. Even if we got AI tech, we wouldn't be able to use it."
Demon Slayer Renzo shrugged, feeling a little disappointed.
He also wanted to get an AI and launch a few satellites to help with real-time communication and tracking demons.
Not gonna happen now!
His world might have steam trains and electric lights, but computers and networks? Yeah, not even close.
Might as well focus on getting stronger instead!
Swordsman Renzo sighed. "What a shame."
At that moment, Eevee turned to Uchiha Renzo. "Your world might actually have a shot! If I remember correctly, Orochimaru's research labs are pretty high-tech. I think I even saw something like a computer in the anime?"
"They have refrigerators too, don't they?"
"And don't forget Kumogakure's Chakra Cannon—that thing's pretty advanced!"
"Oh, and the sky ninjas even built a flying fortress! Their tech is beyond insane!"
"The Naruto world somehow becomes a fully modernized society in Boruto, complete with electric trains. Clearly, it has a solid technological foundation."
"That tech tree is seriously messed up."
"If worst comes to worst, you could just brute-force build a server yourself!"
"If you have the right knowledge, that shouldn't be too hard for you!"
Sometimes, supernatural powers can really make up for a lack of infrastructure.
Pirate Renzo and Swordsman Renzo turned green with envy. "Damn you! So lucky!"
Pirate Renzo stroked his chin. "Now that you mention it, maybe I shouldn't give up just yet! I remember Germa 66's technology was pretty advanced—maybe I can 'borrow' some of it!"
"Too bad Dr. Vegapunk is probably hidden away by the World Government at this point. Otherwise, he definitely had similar tech! In the original story, Franky found one of Vegapunk's old bases on Karakuri Island."
"If that guy could build robots, then there's no way he couldn't make ironclad warships or AI-powered servers!"
Swordsman Renzo: "..."
Demon Slayer Renzo: "..."
How the hell do all of you have access to crazy tech?!
They both admitted—they were jealous.
Eevee and Apocalypse Renzo exchanged glances, both feeling a little speechless.
They had just said it was impossible, and yet they immediately found two worlds with ridiculous black-tech advancements.
This doesn't make any sense!
Eevee turned to Apocalypse Renzo. "That means you also need to learn everything about servers, chips, and all the other computer-related tech! At the very least, you need to memorize it all!"
"Oh, come on! No way!"
Apocalypse Renzo covered his face with his hands. "Are you a demon?! You're gonna kill me!"
"Do you even know how much knowledge that requires?! You can't just casually drop requests like that!"
Even with his enhanced memory and comprehension, there's no way he could master all of that in a short time—not to mention fully understanding it!
Does he even have time to do anything else?
What about his two girlfriends?!
"Please, have mercy! We'll talk about this later!"
Apocalypse Renzo paled, waving his hands frantically. "Don't forget, my world is about to experience an apocalypse! Let me focus on keeping myself and my people alive first. I need to develop a cure for the zombie virus before anything else!"
Eevee spread its paws in surrender.
Maybe that request was a bit over the top—it really had freaked Apocalypse Renzo out!
Fair enough. If he, Eevee had to study that much, it would've panicked too.
That's why freeloading knowledge off others is the best!
All Eevee had to do was open its mouth, suggest things, and let the other Renzos do all the studying!
"I feel like you're thinking something rude..."
Apocalypse Renzo narrowed his eyes.
Eevee let out a nervous laugh. "Nonsense! I totally believe in you! Newbie!"
Can't afford to offend such a useful toolman!
Apocalypse Renzo sighed. "Honestly, you guys shouldn't expect me to handle electronics, mechanics, or AI. I'm a bio-geneticist! What the hell do I know about that stuff?!"
"You should pray for another Renzo to join us—one who's a genius in those fields!"
"Ideally, someone like Tony Stark. That would be perfect! Let's Pray for Tony Renzo."
"And if we get another bio-genetics expert, I wouldn't mind either!"
He wasn't worried about overlapping roles. After all, if they could combine their knowledge and abilities, wouldn't that be amazing?
If you're going to cheat, you might as well go big or go home!
He fully embraced the idea of being an overpowered hack for now, but if possible, he wanted a new Renzo to join and do all the work.
Freeloading is a style.
