Although the current high-end combat power plays a decisive role in the direction of the war, there is a mutual restraint between masters. The battles of ordinary soldiers below are also meaningful. Whitebeard is so strong, but he brought his brothers to rescue Ace, and did not charge into the battle alone.
Of course, in the world of pirates, you can't just look at the caliber. Some backward artillery is still fired in the Middle Ages, and a cannonball can weigh nearly 100 kilograms, so the caliber cannot be calculated.
The weapons in the One Piece world are varied and there are too many talented people here. Anyone can transform into a strange weapon.
For example, there are special Bucky bombs that can destroy half a town. It seems funny, but if it really explodes, it is not something that ordinary people can withstand.
Among the South China Sea Federation’s army, there are only a few ironclad warships used as main ships, and most of the rest are wooden warships.
There are three reasons in total.
One is that the technology is not up to par. There are still not enough R&D personnel on the BiKa. Even if the overall technical level is reached, there are still many details that are not done well. The design alone is a problem. The Navy Headquarters warship base has very strict prevention and control, and no one has penetrated so far.
Let me tell you, it's not a steel battleship, it's an ironclad battleship. A four-masted warship with two gun decks and three three-barreled gun turrets on the open deck. This medieval behemoth that looks a bit old is the strongest technological armed force on the sea.
The electronic fire control systems of modern steel battleships may not work well in the world of One Piece. There are problems with magnetic fields and weather. The more sophisticated the components, the more they are affected. Ironclad ships are already powerful enough to roam the seas.
At present, these ironclad ships are more of a showpiece, designed and manufactured based on naval warships. They can only be said to be slightly stronger than ordinary wooden three-masted battleships.
Second, there were not enough docks. The South Sea Federation plan had been implemented for less than four years, and the Revolutionary Army did not have a complete naval force before. Therefore, it would be too late to renovate the docks of three-masted warships from other countries and put them into use.
Now we just have to wait for the founding war to be won, and then we can vigorously develop the shipbuilding industry, such as absorbing Tom, Franky and others.
The third point is to confuse the World Government. In addition to warships, the Revolutionary Army also has many other high-tech weapons, which are all technological derivatives of the upgrade of Bica.
In this era, it is definitely black technology. Just showing off your skills in a war can shock the world. But the South China Sea Federation has too many problems, so it is hard not to be suspicious.
Based on the above three points, even in a conventional war, Taizog would hide his combat power deep inside, not giving the outside world any room for imagination.
In terms of personnel, this transfer is quite large. The top 20 students in the boot camp all came out to serve as the trump cards on the warship. If a string battle or a landing battle is needed, these people will be needed to stabilize the situation.
In the dark, the leaders of the Revolutionary Army are watching the enemy's every move, and the underwater murloc troops are also deploying defensively.
The Bika in the sky is also using its radar system to conduct all-round reconnaissance of high-energy source reactions.
As long as the enemy deploys unconventional forces, Taizog can calmly arrange a counterattack and make the enemy fall in a short time.
The three parties of sea, army and air force cooperated in the battle, so how could they lose?
All the variables lie with the World Government, and the key point of this war has shifted to the New World.
Once they get through this hurdle, the 20 countries in the South China Sea will no longer be a concern, as there will be a subsequent package of plans waiting to be implemented on them.
Bulu Bulu, Bulu Bulu, the voice of Den Den Mushi sounded.
"Hello, Mr. Noah. Yes, Spandam has relaxed a lot. The follow-up plan is being prepared."
"Well, very good. It seems that the World Government is very satisfied with this information. I feel more relieved after reconfirming it, but probing is still necessary before I show up at the target location. You still have to be careful. Especially with Bonnie. You know her temper."
"Don't worry, Bonnie is very sensible in big things and knows what to do and what not to do. You are the center of the storm, as long as you show up at the designated location according to the plan, everything will go smoothly on our side."
"Okay, I found two problem children here. They are Law's childhood friends. They are now imprisoned in Dressrosa. Please arrange for someone to bring them back when you can. I am too busy to handle them now."
"Yes."
After the call, Taizog felt more relieved. Now in this position, he was walking on thin ice, fearing that his performance would affect this important event.
The same was true for the other recruits in the training camp. They were taking on important tasks for the first time, and they felt both proud of being trusted and a little fearful of not having enough confidence. People like Bonnie had no complaints in this plan, and everyone hoped to complete the establishment of the South China Sea Federation beautifully.
However, Luo's friend? As a popular doctor on the Resurrection Island, Tyzog still knows a little about Luo. After all, he is a person living in Teacher Noah's house. For Tyzog, who has great political ambitions, he is an existence that cannot be ignored.
He remembered that Law was from the Don Quixote family, right? So if two family members were imprisoned, Doflamingo should be in danger. The information has not been released yet, either because it just happened and has not spread yet. Or it may be that the World Government is suppressing the information for fear of variables.
The CP chief was indeed afraid of changes at this moment, and everything was currently being carried out according to that intelligence. If the news spread too quickly, causing some chain reactions in the new world and causing Noah to change his target location, this siege would fail.
But the necessary tests must be carried out. Who knows if this cunning guy is just using a smoke screen?
"Go, tell the hidden agent in Dressrosa to find out Noah's whereabouts."
"Yes."
Chapter 193 A Book for Kizaru
Dressrosa.
The war with Doflamingo is over, and the Don Quixote family has come to an end.
King Riku has several very difficult issues to deal with.
After this incident of stealing the country, he has lost the trust of the people and is destined to step down.
First of all, when facing Doflamingo, Tian naively agreed to the blackmail of 100 billion Baileys, and borrowing money from the people has broken the balance of the country.
Afterwards, he led his soldiers to massacre the people under manipulation. The blood feud had already been forged, and the people who had lost their families would no longer trust him as before. Kneeling down and apologizing could only ease the anger temporarily, but the hatred would deepen over time.
In the end, the one who solved the crisis was Noah of the Revolutionary Army, the world's most dangerous criminal, a man who would bring disaster to the country as soon as he appeared. With the record of entanglement with the Revolutionary Army, it was difficult for him to come up with a reason to explain to the World Government in the future.
After thinking it over again, I finally made a decision.
Since his resignation was inevitable, his chosen heir was Princess Viola.
At this time, as a member of the Liku royal family, there were not many who were qualified to inherit the throne. Princess Scarlett had already gone into seclusion with Cyrus. She had been a good wife and mother for so long, but without any foundation, she was no longer suitable for the succession to the throne.
As a woman, she was more likely to win the sympathy of the people at this time because she had been captured early on by Don Quixote's family and did not participate in the massacre of civilians, making it easier for her to gain support.
And her fruit ability, the Staring Fruit, has a certain blessing in seeing through people's hearts, and can lead the people forward better than him.
When Princess Viola was told of this decision, she was very confused. In one day and one night, the country became fragile, like a duckweed floating in the wind and rain. Then her father wanted to pass the throne to her, which made her a little resistant and afraid.
After listening to King Liku's explanation, she also understood that it was time for her to take responsibility as a member of the royal family.
"Huh~~Okay, I'll take over this throne!"
Seeing his little daughter taking on this heavy responsibility with such a serious expression, King Liku was both relieved and sad. He had not fulfilled his duties as a king, nor had he fulfilled his responsibilities as a father, leaving such a difficult future to her.
I also deeply felt the cruelty of the sea. The peaceful life before was like a flower in the water, which was broken by a poke. It turns out that the real sea respects strength.
Then, he will be sorry for his eldest daughter again. Cyrus, this country needs you.
After he told Princess Viola and other ministers the news of his abdication, everyone agreed with this decision, which was the only way to pull the country out of the quagmire.
Another live broadcast began. The citizens looked at King Riku with complicated expressions, not knowing what to say. For a king, failing to protect his own people is a sin.
On TV, King Riku recounted everything that happened last night, from the 100 billion debt that Doflamingo threatened him with late at night, to how he and his army were controlled and raised their knives against civilians, to how the Don Quixote family was suppressed by Noah.
The noise of Noah and Doflamingo's fight could not be concealed at all, and at least he could leave an honest impression by telling it now. How the navy would explain it was a matter for the future, as Noah was in the royal city at the moment.
Finally, King Riku announced that the throne of Dressrosa would be passed to Princess Viola, and he himself would be exiled forever off the coast of Dressrosa to fight to defend the country's security.
There were no cheers, no applause, no flowers. The succession of the throne this time was extremely simple. To regain the trust of the people again, Princess Viola, no, the new King Riku, Riku Violet, had to walk a thorny road.
After closing the live broadcast, Liku Dord III prepared to lead some generals who felt they had committed serious crimes and were too ashamed to face the people to go to Noah to apologize.
Because he decided to notify the navy to temporarily deter the surrounding pirates and take away the members of the Don Quixote family, then it would not be appropriate for Noah to be here.
It is really too much that the benefactor who just saved the country is being forced to leave, but we have to do nothing.
The Navy and the World Government must have known about this major event. Keeping Noah in the country at this time will only make this place the next O'Hara. Let this national sinner do the offending things.
But he was stopped by Violet.
"Since I am the new king of this country, I will be the one to do this."
After saying that, he strode towards Noah who was writing and drawing in a notebook.
"Mr. Noah. I..."
The words came to my lips but I didn't know how to say them. Did they mean that the navy was coming and you should run away? And we were the ones who notified the navy to come.
You really aren't afraid of being killed by a sword. When I accepted this task, I was full of kingly demeanor, but when I got there, I was dumbfounded. I was almost twisted into a knot.
Unable to bear it any longer, Noah solved the dilemma himself.
"I know what you are going to say. I will be leaving the country soon, so don't worry too much. But there are a few things I need your help with."
Violet was overjoyed that the problem solved itself.
"Please tell me."
"These two children are still young, and they haven't developed the right values since they were young, so they made a lot of mistakes following the Don Quixote family. Now I plan to take them away and educate them well, and apologize on their behalf and on behalf of the people of Resrosa.
I hope you can forgive them, or let them come to seek forgiveness in the future, okay?"
"can."
"Second, if the admiral who comes this time is Borsalino, please give this book to him for me and ask him if he needs to revise any part of it and give him some suggestions."
"This is...ok."
Violet was a little confused for a moment. Aren't you a thorn in the side of the World Government? How could you have a personal relationship with the admiral?
Oh~~~ I understand. The Navy, the Revolutionary Army, and the World Government. These three forces are also so dirty in private. Eh~ I thought the Navy and the World Government were on the same page, but I didn't expect that.
However, is it appropriate to entrust such an important matter to me? Do I know too much? Probably not. Who would have thought that the Revolutionary Army would contact the Navy Admiral through me?
Smart! He is indeed a terrifying figure who can fool the world government many times!
Although Noah did not have the ability to read minds, he could see that the new King Riku in front of him had countless little stories in his mind.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just soliciting some opinions. General Borsalino has unique views on some things."
"I understand. I really do."
Chapter 194 Planting the seeds of thought
I... feel like you don’t understand, but I don’t want to explain it anymore. The more I explain, the more you’ll understand.
It's really just a book about labor and labor law. Now the Revolutionary Army is getting bigger and bigger, with more and more people. I don't know how many administrative staff there are in the South China Sea Federation that is about to be established.
Things about working hours and holidays need to be adjusted early. Some laws and regulations in the previous life may not be suitable for the world of One Piece. They all need to be adjusted based on the actual situation.
There are also issues of benefits, obligations, and employee protections; there are too many to list.
When it comes to labor laws and holidays, the first person Noah thinks of is Admiral Kizaru. Why? Because there is no labor union in this world that speaks for the working class. Many rights and working hours are not fought for by anyone, and people just follow the established habits.
If you want to get a clear answer to this kind of question, I believe Borsalino will have many opinions. Although he is at the top of the ocean, he knows his position as a worker very well and never crosses the line.
While clocking in and slacking off, he can still do his job well. He is also very good at socializing and understands the principle that the leader's offspring should be released into the sea. Such a person is believed to have a full understanding of labor relations.
This will also give him a chance to communicate with Borsalino. He has met Aokiji and is familiar with Akainu, but the only one missing is Kizaru. Although Kizaru once wrote a reader letter to Adam, and Adam replied to it, he has never met Noah in his identity.
You know, to poach someone, you have to choose the right time and be persistent. As long as you use the hoe to dig well, the navy will fall.
Noah handed the book to Violet and left it alone. There was a note in the book, which was the mailing address of the draft opinion. It was a one-time address, and the recipient would not know what was going on and would keep forwarding it inadvertently.
It takes many twists and turns to reach the South China Sea, so it is necessary to be on guard. What if people in the workplace have a brain injury for a big performance?
Put seastone handcuffs on Baby-5 and Buffalo, and put them in the portable space. First find an island with a revolutionary army base, put them there, and transport them back to the South China Sea after the South China Sea Federation is successfully established.
I wonder if Luo would be touched to see his former gang buddies going to school with him. He would definitely be, because he would have someone to do his homework with.
Now that everything has been explained, Noah is ready to leave. If he doesn't leave now, the World Government will be very anxious.
Seeing Noah was about to leave, Violet knew she shouldn't ask, but she asked anyway.
"Mr. Noah, will there be a chance to see you again in the future?"
Noah roughly understood what it meant, and decisively rejected any possibility of things developing further.
"It's not a good thing to meet me. There are many things in this world worth pursuing. Don't grasp the impossible things."
The cold rejection made Liku Dold III, who was eavesdropping nearby, feel relieved. He was also an experienced person and understood a little bit.
“What is something that is impossible to grasp?”
"Overthrow the world government."
That was the end of the story. Noah left a box of books behind for Violet's sake, as she was still a promising talent.
“Read more books and use your brain more in the future. My blessing to you is, study hard and make progress every day.” Blessings from across the world, wishing you well.
Violet was not a love-brained person, she was just impulsive. Now she has been completely awakened by Noah's several basins of cold water.
After coming out of her emotional entanglement, she became curious about the box of books. As a princess, reading is one of her hobbies, and this gift is very much in line with her heart.
To express her gratitude, she wanted to send Noah to the dock, and Noah didn't refuse and just walked out.
Liku Dord III was very happy to see his daughter come out of the hazy love. Although the crush ended so quickly, that kind of person was really not a good match. He ordered the maid to deliver the box of books to the new king's bedroom, and he followed her.
But he overlooked one thing: compared to love, the thoughts in the box of books were more terrifying. The seeds of thought were deeply buried in the box, and would grow into towering trees through people's learning and understanding.
