"Not only that, that girl's power is indeed approved by the World Government, so strictly speaking, we have no authority to question her behavior."

Sengoku was also a little disappointed. As a naval marshal, he naturally couldn't see the severity of Nami's forcible recruitment of blacksmiths and navigators. However, this policy is only 'severe', neither forcibly confiscating private property nor engaging in concentration camps to eliminate these people. According to the Navy's private and detailed reports and investigations, these blacksmiths not only had regular vacations, but also did not even owe their salaries and taxes they should have paid.

In this case, even if you want to incriminate Nami, there is no very tenable accusation, at most it is an unwarranted 'abuse of power' or something. However, Nami's power is given by the World Government, and if she wants to question her abuse of power, the World Government can only directly intervene. The Navy Headquarters really doesn't have much ability to question a member of the World Government who did not do anything out of the ordinary and even made the sea more stable.

After all, judging from the current situation, it is not ordinary civilians who are affected in the East China Sea. The knives they will use, such as kitchen knives, scissors, and logging axes, are all specially marketed, so private blacksmiths are recruited. Basically it doesn't matter to them. The ones who are affected are the pirates and bounty hunters who need killing knives. The large-scale sword business is basically controlled by the government itself, that is, the supply of ordnance to the navy and other combat departments. What can satisfy non-government people are indeed only some small-scale private weapons stores or ordnance companies that have transactions with the government, but if an ordnance company wants to do business, it will naturally require quite large-scale actions. Private pirate groups or Bounty hunters don't deserve their attention, so only private weapons shops can satisfy these people.

Although powerful pirates still have various ways to obtain weapons, such as desperately going to big towns to buy them, or even attacking towns directly. But for those weak pirates, if they don't want to rob with a kitchen knife or a logging axe, they have to find a way to get some serious weapons. Now that the most convenient source of the private blacksmith shop has been cut off, it is undoubtedly that these small pirate groups who follow the trend have been greatly reduced.

And for those unarmed ordinary people, the biggest threat is never those big pirates like the so-called Four Emperors or the King's Seven Martial Seas, but those who hold the most simple and rude thoughts of robbery and feel at ease as the number one pirate The inferior scum who slaughter and destroy. The legend of One Piece stimulated their ambitions, but did not let them see themselves clearly, and no matter what kind of hand they were in, with a wave of the blade, civilians could bear the blood and pain. Even if these scum will soon be eliminated by the sea, the hatred they left behind will not dissipate so easily.

"But... it's unrealistic for the government to completely ban private weapons. Unless all those blacksmiths are killed, they will always follow their professional instincts."

Seeing the gloom that Sengoku and Karp buried in their hearts, Ah He couldn't help but sigh and speak. She and these two people have been partnering since they were young, and now the three of them have become old men and women, naturally It was clear how the two felt.

"That's right, in short, what we need to care about is not that the girl has gathered the blacksmiths and navigators, but what she will do with these people."

He took a sip from the teacup on his desk, and the Warring States face became serious: "Although we have never done business, we still understand the saying 'if you have money in your hand, you can't help but want to do something', there are so many Blacksmiths and navigators cannot be locked up doing nothing."

Although as warriors, Sengoku and others could not have the same capital knowledge as Nami, but after all, their age and qualifications are placed here, and some important points can be seen in Nami's behavior.

The reason why the government does not do this is that it is easy to recruit these blacksmiths and navigators, but it is much more difficult to arrange them. After all, you can't put all these people to death, you can't keep them locked up and do nothing, or even find jobs for these people to make salaries, and the government has its own dedicated ordnance experts, so you can't use the private individuals of these three-legged cats. blacksmith.

So, this is the fundamental reason why these private blacksmith shops can be stocked.

What made Sengoku and the others curious was not that Nami could come up with the idea of ​​recruiting blacksmiths and navigators, but how she properly arranged them.

"This is what I want to say. According to the report of the informant in the new world, that kid from Doflamingo recently got a new type of weapon product from the East China Sea, and the sales seem to be very popular. I was still wondering where the East China Sea came from. The high-quality blade of the fighter now seems to be in place."

A He's mind is obviously not comparable to that of ordinary people who can be titled as the Navy's Great Staff Officer. In his eyes, seemingly irrelevant information is undoubtedly linked with a clear context.

"No way? Those blacksmiths are just private blacksmiths. How can they create a blade that can satisfy the new world? Unless..."

Karp also touched his chin and thought carefully. Although he gave the impression that he was using his fist faster than his head, it did not mean that he really had no brains. Besides, he, Sengoku and Ah He were young people. As for the partners who have cooperated so far, there is no need to say more about their previous intentions and tacit understanding.

"That's why I said that the last time you two acted too recklessly. Although the girl's experience is indeed worth your help, but she did not fully understand her ability and made up her own mind. As a result, this situation has occurred, even if it is You two have cultivated it. Whether it is a poisonous weed or a good medicine, you can't get rid of it."

A He's brows also showed a little helplessness. Although she was already familiar with the personalities of her two companions, but now she had to take care of them, which made her feel a little tired.

"Ha... It's all Karp's fault. Speaking of which, it started because his grandson took bribes, so you can handle it yourself, Karp."

He snorted rather arrogantly. Warring States obviously didn't intend to take care of this matter anymore. After all, he had too many official duties to deal with. Saying this is actually to run Karp and let this idle day dangle in front of him. Guys hurry out for a walk, lest there be rust in the navy headquarters.

"Tsk~ That's not good, I heard that the little girl even offered a business of providing wood to Windmill Village. If I go over and blame others, I'd be too ignorant~ I won't go, I won't go~"

Picking his nostrils, Karp also refused. Obviously, at his age, he already knew the need for worldly manners. Although Nami's behavior was indeed different, she did not have a clear crime at present, and the care of Windmill Village was also very human. As for Karp, he has seen too much darkness and sublime, so before there is no clear evidence, he would rather act as an image of accepting bribes and favoritism rather than act rashly.

"Huh... Forget it, let me go over there..."

Of course, Sengoku and Garp shied each other because they knew there was another person they could trust, and that was undoubtedly A Tsuru, who was also a woman and had nothing to do with Nami. Shaking his head and standing up, Ah He obviously expected this scene. However, she does have something she wants to do, and that is to hunt down Doflamingo, one of the seven warriors under the king. Although the other party has no crime, so he can't do it, but Ah He's actions to collect the other party's crimes Not discouraged.

"Oh~ I'll leave it to you, Xiaohe~"

"Shut up, Karp~! How about you look like a naval hero to me, how about going on a patrol on the sea?"

Karp's hippie smile, and the angry roar of the Warring States also clearly came from behind, and shaking her head, Ah He still left here, no matter what, she also wanted to see this little girl who is currently in the East China Sea. , in the end how many kilograms a few taels.

(PS1: Hmmm~~Second update~~I still owe 32 more~~)

(PS2: So today’s update is over~~ Nothing can knock me down~~ Hmm! Whether it’s mental deprivation or limb weakness~~!)

tripartite talks

In this world, there is no doubt that the number of people will always be a representative of a force that cannot be ignored. Although the number of people in the story is often used as a kind of irony, it reflects the hypocrisy and weakness of the villain, as well as the powerful power of the frontal characters who can win a big victory with one enemy and more.

But in fact, for the human group, quantity is precisely the main manifestation of power. Even for the strong, this support is needed to gain a firm foothold in the new world.

And the representative powerhouses among the pirates are naturally the four strongest pirates known as the "Four Emperors". Edward Newgate, known as 'Whitebeard', Kaido, known as the world's strongest creature, Charlotte Lingling, nicknamed Big Mom, and the last red-haired Shanks.

How much power these four people have under their command can be clear just by calculating the data of the original book. The first is the Whitebeard Pirates, this group is also the core team, with a total of 1600 people in 16 divisions, and then there are a total of 43 New World Pirates who joined, even these other affiliated Pirates. The number is not as good as that of the group, but if the total number is added up, the number of the direct forces of Whitebeard will not be less than 50,000, or even more.

Followed by aunt Charlotte Lingling, her concept of employment is different from that of Whitebeard. Simply put, she only trusts those who are 'relatives' to herself, so the world's most sturdy woman has a total of 43 husbands, There are 39 biological daughters, 46 biological sons, and 129 members of the core family. Even if each of these core members only leads a few hundred people, the combined force of her direct subordinates has reached tens of thousands.

Correspondingly, Kaido and Shanks, who can be compared with these two people, are definitely only a lot more powerful. After all, when it comes to the combat power of the leader of the pirate regiment, none of these four powerhouses can say no. In the end, who is the strongest, and the same is true for the brave soldiers under their respective command, so in order to maintain the balance of strength, they can only compete on the number of military strength.

Therefore, it can be said that the number of pirates directly belonging to the Four Emperors in the new world is no less than 200,000, not to mention that there may be at least four times the number of low-level pirates who are not qualified to join these four strong men. Adding in the bounty hunters or mercenaries who seek a living in the New World, and the Shichibukai-style pirate family like Doflamingo, the total number of non-government combatants in the New World has easily exceeded one million.

Not to mention that in order to counter and balance the military power of the four emperors, almost the vast majority of the elites of the navy are gathered here. Unlike the four emperors, the navy is directly opposed to all pirates. We can imagine the number of the navy itself, and its equivalence is the minimum requirement, and more than 30% is the ideal state.

So all in all, there is absolutely no problem in saying that the New World is a real force competition area.

"There are 1,200 weapons of the Xia Lan series per month. Even if it is counted according to the number of heads, it has not even reached 0.01% of the total weapons market in the New World."

"Furfurfurfur~ No, plus damages and other possible reductions, at most, only 0.007% of Xia Lan has been successfully sold in the New World, so how tight are you guys on my side? Should have imagined it."

In front of Nami were two chattering phone bugs, one of them belonged to Crocodile, and the other apparently belonged to another king, Shichibukai, namely Doflamingo. Obviously, these two Shichibukai should have reached some kind of deal, so this time Robin, who came to Nami to pick up the goods, brought a special phone bug that can communicate directly with Doflamingo, and then evolved It became a call similar to a tripartite meeting.

"No, gentlemen, for me, 1,200 Xia Lan series weapons a month is already the limit. Moreover, if the iron ore is insufficient, the supply will be reduced, I mean What, you two can think of it."

She's used to this kind of communication for a long time. Nami is just a little regretful that the world has not developed the ability of remote video communication. After all, it needs satellite support. The current world government doesn't seem to have reached this level of technology.

"If it's iron ore or manpower, it's not difficult to solve it with your methods, right?"

Crocodile's phone bug brought a little impatience. It wasn't that he started to get angry, but that Nami seemed to be a little restrained.

"Furfurfurfur, stupid crocodile~! Iron ore is naturally not a problem, but that doesn't mean the rest of the problems are not problems."

The laughter of Doflamingo's logo was still full of the feeling of dying, and this made Crocodile immediately respond: "What? Are you looking for death, you bastard?"

"Okay, gentlemen, although I think someone will come to solve my problems soon, but ~ necessary insurance measures need to be taken. So, Mr. Doflamingo, I hope I can ask you to help me. A little favor."

Supporting her forehead with her fingers, Nami obviously didn't intend to make any mistakes. After all, it's fine as long as she earns more money, not to mention that she doesn't necessarily have to pay. But if the relationship is not smooth enough, the impact will not be compensated by saving some money.

"Furfur, that's ok, three billion bellies, this is the lowest price."

Doflamingo's answer was also quite straightforward. Obviously, he also knew very well what Nami wanted him to do.

That's right, aside from his identity as one of the Seven Wuhais under the King, Brother Doflamingo also has a very special identity, which is the so-called 'world aristocrat - Tianlongren'. Although he had left the Holy Land Mary Joa since he was a child for various reasons, and could not return to it, his identity as a Heavenly Dragon still existed. And it's no secret, that's why he has the unique title of 'Tianyasha'.

And what Nami wants to do is to borrow the identity of the other party and make it bribe the special group of Tianlong people, so as to directly let the world government recognize Nami's status in the East China Sea and the legitimacy of what she does. Judging from the various performances of the original work, the World Government's obedience to the Tianlong people is still extremely high, and it can even deceive the world by saying that he has resigned from the title of Qiwuhai for the sake of Doflamingo.

However, wanting to satisfy the greedy Tianlong people is obviously not something that can be done with a small amount of money. After all, the greatest garbage in the world spends hundreds of millions of dollars, and 500 million to buy a mermaid can only be regarded as a mess. Spend money', so the offer of three billion bribes from Doflamingo is indeed very conscientious.

However, the first Doflamingo is too far away in the new world to affect Nami, and secondly, the Xia Lan series must also rely on Nami's ability to make it, so Nami can ask Doflaming without any psychological burden. Brother Ming provides insurance measures, that is to say, she does not plan to pay for it herself.

"Okay, then I'll ask Mr. Doflamingo. If I get security that I can feel at ease, then from now on, our shop will start making weapons suitable for giants."

She agreed to the number without blinking her eyelids, and Nami talked freely without any psychological pressure, while Doflamingo, who was on the other end of the phone, choked a little, and his tone rarely brought a hint of astonishment: "Wait, what do you mean, do you want me to do this and pay for it myself?"
