This method was thought up by the World Government itself, and the Navy's opinion was definitely not considered when it was designed. Otherwise, not only old Navy men like Zephyr who have been upholding justice all their lives, but also young men like Aokiji would not agree. Even Akainu disliked this strategy, and he preferred to directly suppress the sea and kill all those who disobeyed. These disturbances cannot disturb Noah for the time being, or in other words, this chaotic situation on the sea is conducive to the development of the revolutionary army. Sometimes, even Noah wanted to get involved in the Shichibukai rebellion and insert a few of his own people, not like Kuma, but a real Shichibukai. But he gave up the idea later. If you think about it carefully, there is no point in doing this. The Seven Warlords only have a license to rob legally, which does not bring much profit. Besides, all of these people who became Seven Warlords are unruly, so how can they be willing to be led by Noah? Chapter 222 New Frost Moon Sword "Yeah, just say I'm not here, really not here, it's okay, just wait until I get back and talk." After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Taizog knocked over a pirate casually, dodged a humanized attack, and even dared to spit! In the end, Ola Ola beat all the pirates into the sea. Looking at the tattered pirate ship, he smiled bitterly. A pirate ship of this strength should not stay in the paradise stage. Why bother? They don't even know how to use Haki, and they want to dominate the sea with a devil fruit. How naive. Unless they were powerful natural type, special superhuman type, or mythical beast type, ordinary fruit ability users were not that strong. Developing the ability of the fruit requires imagination, control, and science. In the development of the Gold-Gold Fruit, Taizog has figured out his own method. Although he has not eaten the fruit for a long time, he has already mastered the basic golden transformation.
The ductility of gold can be used to make a variety of attack angles, and it is also an excellent carrier for protection. Gold has high chemical stability and is not easy to react chemically with other substances. This is a very scientific means of protection. Of course, the conductivity is also very good. Fortunately, Noah has been fed the historical text with the Thunder Fruit, so he has one less natural enemy. The golden giant in the original novel should not be completed by Taizog. One reason is that there is not enough gold. The gold of the revolutionary army is not for personal use, but for the development of the cause. Especially after the infrastructure was laid out, money was spent like water, and a lot of gold was spent on this. Factories are also big consumers of gold. Many parts in communication equipment are mixed with gold. In such a shortage, you still want to build a golden giant? Aren't you afraid of being hammered? Another amazing thing about the original Golden Giant is that his eyes can fire lasers. In the later period of One Piece, there are many characters who can fire lasers. Borsalino, Flashman, and mass-produced Peacekeepers can all do it. Finally, even the Golden Emperor's Golden Giant can fire lasers, and they are super powerful lasers. They are powerful and have a long range, and can sink warships dozens of kilometers away. The principle is also scientific, using the machine in the body to generate heat energy and then emit lasers. It fully demonstrates that science and technology are the primary productive forces. From then on, lasers became a common move in the sea. The only thing more common than this was fire. It was really a disrespect to the Flame-Flame Fruit. Any famous person could create a ball of fire at any time. After beating his own opponent, Taizog stood aside and watched Kuina's fight. He originally saw a pirate trying to launch a sneak attack, but when he noticed that Noah didn't react at all, he calmed down and thought that Kuina could handle this kind of thing herself. "Watch this, hehehehe!" A pirate suddenly threw a bag of powder from the side, intending to kill the terrifying swordsman girl with it. They were evil pirates, and even if the opponent was a little girl, it would not stop them from using their methods. However, in front of the new Shimotsuki swordsman whose first lesson was the Lime Warrior, this was a piece of cake. In order to distinguish the traditional Shimotsuki swordsmanship, Kuina still added a new word, the reason was to save face. I'm really afraid that Koshiro will be angry to death if he knows that the family sword art is resounding across the sea in this way. Or maybe he will bring Qiu Shui to clean up the mess. Adding a word to distinguish is her last pride. Facing the lime powder blowing in her face, she smiled contemptuously. The swordsman's perception has been trained to the limit, both hearing and touch have reached a critical point. Occasionally, he can also sense the sword's breathing. This level does not require eyes, and can continue to easily held up the 3 knives that took the opportunity to attack, and then poured all his strength into his feet, his legs turned into afterimages, snapped, and retracted. "Ah~~~~~!" x3, screams came one after another, the pain made Taizog, who was watching, feel creepy and a little scared. Fatal blows are just that the enemy used such despicable moves, don't blame her for lowering her bottom line to touch order not to cause them pain, we had to send them away mercifully, which is kindness. This... How come the swordsmanship of Teacher Noah's lineage is different from what he has seen before? Taizog, who has seen a lot, also sighed secretly. The appearance of this sword art is as bright as moonlight, but the techniques and moves can be called the back of the moon. It is so reckless.
After Kuina dealt with her last opponent, the two returned to the Voyager together. "Teacher Noah, the 20 countries in the South China Sea now want to discuss the redemption of the surrendered soldiers, but I rejected it. I think we can leave it alone for a while. We haven't reached the bottom line yet." "Well, tell me what you think." "I got a lot of information out of Bakerlund, and I basically understood what those insects wanted to do. They just wanted to drag us into their favorite track and defeat us. However, their methods of power and economy are outdated. At this time, we are the ones who hold the initiative. We should first make use of the redemption of surrendered soldiers to do something. Let the 20 countries redeem separately. The conditions are also different. Some countries can collect less, and some can collect more. This is a basic introduction. Secondly, in terms of economy, if we take it slow, we can gradually erode the enemy. But the time of the revolutionary army is so precious, so we can use some extraordinary means. For things like tariffs and forced trade, isn't the right to negotiate within the range of cannons? I don’t know much about the last island, but it seems that Mr. Noah has already made a plan for it.” It seems that Taizog has really learned that set of knowledge thoroughly. In the future, many things can be entrusted to him without any worries. "As for the island, we will discuss its specific location later. We just need to agree on a range. The specifics can only be decided after this trip to the Seven Water Capital. The planning of the train route connecting the sea should be left to professionals. When the time comes, we can just ask for the islands we need. To some extent, the South China Sea is already ours. " Yes, the so-called 20 countries in the South China Sea are now being treated like meat on a chopping board, without any deterrent power. If the world government had not been watching, they would have been swallowed up long ago. Gradually taking control is also in line with Noah's strategy. If it is too radical, there will be variables. Kuina was listening to the conversation between her master and Taizog, but she could only understand half of it. Although she was very talented in kendo, she lacked age and experience in other aspects. Finally, we have arrived at the Seven Water Capitals, and it’s time for everyone to sort out their images. Mr. Taizog, a diplomat of the South Sea Federation, Mr. Adam, a world-renowned writer, and his apprentice Kuina came to the Seven Waters City together. Chapter 223 Old Friends Need to Talk When we arrived at the official dock, there were a lot of people coming to greet us, all of them were old friends. The mayor and several nobles and merchants are here. The last time I dealt with them was in 1508. Five years have passed, and I didn't expect that they are still alive. It's great, but some of them are not in good health, so I may not see them next time. In fact, Noah did come back in 1510 to maintain the Voyager and lay the groundwork for the sea train plan with Tom, so he did not go through official channels. This time I revisited the old place and it felt very special. After getting off the boat, I greeted my old friends warmly, hugged them, took photos with them, and was very friendly. This time I was asking for help, so I had to be polite. "Come on, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Taizog, a diplomat from the South Sea Federation. Let's get to know each other." Oh, the South China Sea Federation, a frequent guest in the newspapers recently. It just won a war in the South China Sea. It is a new country. It gives people the impression that it is full of martial virtues. Not all wars can be fought like in the newspapers and novels, and the opponent can be completely wiped out. When they received the diplomatic letter from the South China Sea Federation, they were also confused and didn't know what the connection was with the Seven Waters. They said they would come in the near future. I didn't expect that he came with Mr. Adam. What's the relationship? But since they are here, we should treat them well. "Nice to meet you" The two groups exchanged some very business-like pleasantries, and the mayor looked at Adam, wondering what was going on.
"Oh~ I've been living in the South China Sea recently, you all know this. Later, the South China Sea Federation found me and hired me as their image ambassador with a large sum of money. I thought about it and decided that for the sake of peace in the ocean, it was my duty to spread positive energy, so I agreed. This time I came here to discuss some things. But are we going to talk about it here?" A large sum of money? That must be a lot. At the beginning, someone suggested that Adam stay in the Seven Waters City and offered many conditions, but they were all rejected. So it must have taken a lot of effort to invite him. And it was also a great reward to let Mr. Adam cross the sea to spread positive energy in such a chaotic time. "Ah, right, right, let's go back first. We can talk about it tomorrow. We will still welcome you tonight. I believe that our Seven Water City banquet can wash away your fatigue, hahahaha." The group took the deluxe version of the Blue and took another sightseeing route. The same commentary was repeated. The mayor was an experienced tour guide. Tyzog also made some exclamations and compliments at the right time. Both the host and the guests were very happy. After they had arranged their respective lounges, Noah heard a knock on the door. "Who?" "Mr. Adam, the mayor wants you to go to the mayor's office alone. He wants to catch up with you." Reminiscing about the past? That's all. Just watch me. "Okay, you lead the way." Following the waiter, I arrived at the mayor's office. The waiter closed the door behind him when he left. In addition to the mayor, there were also several nobles inside. "Please take a seat. Excuse me for asking you to come here in advance, Adam. You have always maintained a very good relationship with us in the Seven Waters, so we wanted to talk to you first." After organizing his words, the mayor still asked the question. "Mr. Adam, may I ask why the South China Sea Federation came to the Seven Waters Capital this time? I wonder if you can tell me." "There's nothing to hide about this. It's for Tom's sea train. We want to second Tom to the South China Sea for a year." The mayor remembered that there had been rumors in Nanhai that a sea train would be introduced. Many people had come to inspect it before, but there was another force in Nanhai that prevented it from being introduced. This incident also caused a big disturbance in the Seven Waters City. Many nobles did not understand why Nanhai wanted to introduce such a costly and laborious thing. They only understood it after communicating with a merchant from the Kingdom of Sobel in Nanhai. Although this thing is expensive, it really makes money. The reason why the Seven Waters don't make money is because they are located in the Grand Line. Due to the complex climate and sea conditions, they can only build a few escape routes. But it's different in a normal sea area like the South China Sea. The road they pave can be said to be a golden road. The biggest output value of this thing is in transporting goods. It has many advantages. The running speed is fast, and the speed shown in the animation is definitely much faster than that of ordinary ships. According to the image of the train, if the speed of a steam locomotive is compared, the speed is about 40 knots. The transport capacity is large, and the train has many carriages. This is difficult to compare, because if the traction power is a steam engine, the traction force is definitely not 300+ kilonewtons. But there are too many black technologies in this world, so it should be more than enough. It is less restricted by natural conditions, has strong continuity, and can be guaranteed to operate all year round, especially in the South China Sea. The Grand Route is definitely a good helper for traffic accidents. It has good general performance and can transport both passengers and various types of goods. The arrival and departure times are highly accurate, the operation is relatively stable, safe and reliable. The rails developed by Tom are the most advanced technology among advanced technologies, which can overcome ordinary waves and sea kings. The transportation cost is lower and the energy consumption is lower. This is why many people are racking their brains over this. If it is not handled properly, the South China Sea Federation will also see the collapse of an industry. At the same time, they also understood why there were still people who did not allow the construction of sea trains in the South China Sea. Just like the boss of the fourth shipyard captain who committed suicide before, they had conflicts of interest. If you are in the shipping business, if you continue to do this, the freight rate will go down. Goods will definitely be shipped by cheap and fast trains first. What will happen to the cargo ships? Will they be chopped up and used as firewood? The emergence of a new thing will always eliminate the old production model. There is also such a road that anyone can make money from. If it is not in their own hands, it is understandable that they would rather not build it. They are all powerful and they still know this. So what one is resisting is not the sea train, but the sea train that is not in one's hands.
Everyone is a vested interest group, and they are generally highly exclusive. When a small part of them suffers from damage to their own interests, they will show obvious "grouping". On the one hand, they will use the power of other vested interests to reduce their own losses; on the other hand, they will try to maintain a balance that is beneficial to their own interests when their own interests are damaged. "Before, a group of people from the South China Sea came here to do this, but then nothing happened. It seems that this newly established country, the South China Sea Federation, also wants to make a difference. But we don't know much about this country, Mr. Adam..." Chapter 224 I understand, I can't say more Rich, very rich. Good at fighting, very good at fighting. With a background, very deep background. This is Adam's reply to the decision-makers of the Seven Waters City. The group of people who heard this looked at each other in bewilderment. This... "Ahem, I wonder if you could elaborate on how you got the money, how you can fight, and how you have the background." "This... I am the image ambassador of the South China Sea Federation after all. It would not be good if I were to say too much." I see. It’s not great. It’s okay, but not enough. A few people expressed their feelings, but could not say anything specific. Those who understand will understand. It is not that Noah feels that he has established a solid foundation in the South China Sea and has started to take bribes when he goes out to do business. Instead, they don't let the other party pay a price. They don't believe that the information is true. There is no such thing as a free lunch. The One Piece world also has its own slang. "Well, let me explain briefly. I will not admit it once I leave this room. We are really rich. Originally, the World Government did not help either side in the South China Sea issue and even leaned a bit towards the 20 countries. After all, one side is its own world member country, and the other side is a newly emerging small national federation. As a result, the South China Sea Federation gave the World Government a piece of paper, and the list on it added up to this number! " Noah gestured a few numbers, causing the bigwigs present to gasp. Is this the end of the world? "Given this number, the head of CP5 sent by the World Government was stationed at the headquarters of the South Sea Federation. Isn't that impressive?" "This is amazing, he is indeed rich. How can he fight?" "You all read in the newspapers this time, they were completely wiped out, right? I was on Batlila Island, watching them set off. That fleet was absolutely formidable. There were several ironclad ships, and many other large sailing warships as well. Moreover, you must know that Admiral Zefa of the Navy is currently in the South China Sea to rectify the atmosphere of the South China Sea branch. But you definitely don’t know that there are people in the South China Sea Federation who can fight him to a draw! " They took another breath of cold air. They tied with the admiral of the navy. How terrifying! Now they were even more curious about his background. To be so powerful, what kind of powerful background must he have? "I really can't go into detail about the background. I only know that they are connected to the big shots in Marijoa, the Five Elders. They also planned an extremely confidential mission together, and the people involved in this mission are all admirals of the navy. Okay, okay, I won't go into the sequel, and you probably don't dare to listen." "Five Elders...hiss~." Taking a deep breath again and again, these masters are almost out of breath. It's scary to hear. They said that what was written in the newspapers was not reliable. There were so many things behind it, including private political games and shocking exchanges of interests. It was too terrifying. Brother Adam was trustworthy enough to tell them such a big secret. If he didn't tell them, it would be a disaster if he neglected the diplomatic envoys. "Mr. Adam, I am grateful for your kindness. This is a little gift, please accept it." "Oh~ No, no. I have feelings for Nanamizu. I still remember that the first book signing event was held here. I am willing to do something for this beautiful city." Look at his awareness and thoughts. This little thought must be accepted by him, otherwise they will feel uneasy. With no other options, Mr. Adam reluctantly accepted the gift. He immediately said that he would hold another book signing event in the Seven Waters City in a few days, not far from his new villa. Everyone said they would go to support him. A joyful and peaceful atmosphere surrounded the place.
I hope that by the time the identity of the great writer Mr. Adam is exposed, the mayor will have retired, otherwise his political career can be declared over early.
