Starting from pirates and conquering all worlds

Within a month, Im was reading the annual report that Wulaoxing had just sent over, the full name of which was the ‘World Government Annual Work Report for the Year 1497’.

To be honest, his predecessor would never have looked at such a thing, because to him, both the World Government and the Celestial Dragons were just tools to control the entire planet.

He firmly believes that his own strength and the 'national treasure' in his hands are enough to suppress the entire sea.

The key is that this is not the case for my new self. As a time traveler, I know the importance of tools and my own strength is important, but making tools more useful does not conflict with the former, right?

Therefore, the role of this report is to first understand the specific conditions of the tool in hand.

The report contains a lot of content. Im counted fifty or sixty pages. Even so, he could only read it one by one patiently.

The whole process took more than three hours, because he needed to read and think at the same time, and he had to stop and read it again and again from time to time.

To be honest, it's quite boring, but it's not difficult if you have previous work experience. Plus, he keeps reminding himself that these are his own forces and industries, so he's very motivated.

call----

Finally, Im finished reading the last report, put it on the coffee table, and exhaled a long breath.

It's not that he is physically exhausted. After all, the workload is insignificant given his strength. It's just that the amount of information received is a bit large.

As I said before, my predecessor didn't read these things at all, so the content written in the report was basically unfamiliar information to him. In addition, the size of the world government was far beyond what the previous small companies could compare to.

In general, the areas he is most concerned about have been clarified, and it has also given him a more specific understanding of the world government.

The first is the financial aspect. Last year's total revenue was 784.3 billion beli. The main income came from the heavenly gold paid by the franchise countries, and there were also some secondary sources, which added up to about 300 billion beri.

There are now 170 participating countries under the World Government, and according to regulations, each country must hand over 3 billion beli.

In other words, including the income from secondary channels, there should be 810 billion Baileys every year!

But now only 784.3 billion beli have been received.

This shows that some countries did not hand over the heavenly gold or paid less than a part of the heavenly gold, resulting in a shortfall of nearly 26 billion beli.

According to the practice in previous years, the world government will reprimand those countries that have underpaid and require them to make up the shortfall next year, while those countries that have not paid will be given a one-year deadline.

If the heavenly gold is not handed over in the next year, the army will be dispatched to escort all citizens of the country, including the royal family and nobles, to 'Techila Wolf' in the East China Sea, which is also known as the country of workers. , build a lifelong bridge in the land of bridges.

As for the previous countries that have less payment, if they do not make up the shortfall in the second year, then the royal family will have to replace them!

This is not okay, we can't go on like this.

Im leaned on the soft sofa and pondered. In his opinion, this issue was very important, and its importance was no less than that of the slave trade.

Three billion Baileys per year for each franchised country is nothing to big and rich countries such as Alabasta, Fishman Island, Dressrosa, and the Gothic Kingdom. Even the Drum Kingdom can benefit from the medical power of the country. The reputation must be handed over in full, but for a small and poor country like the Sorbey Kingdom, the pressure is too great and can even be fatal.

What is the concept of three billion Baileys?

The cost of a headquarters-level medium-sized warship is 300 million beli, and the cost of a future pacifist is 100 million beli.

In other words, a joining country must hand over wealth worth ten medium-sized warships or thirty pacifists every year!

Let’s look at spending.

Last year, the navy's military expenditures were nearly 100 billion beri, ranging from the wages, benefits, and meals of the entire navy to firearms, artillery, warships, and bounties.

But this is not fixed, sometimes it will be less, sometimes it will be more, it depends purely on the situation at sea.

As for the Army, it also needs an unbreakable 70 billion Baileys every year.

In addition, CIPHER POL, which is responsible for the espionage work of all sea areas, all franchised countries, and even non-franchised countries, also needs 100 billion beli, which shows how big its scale is.

Then there are the wages, food and maintenance fees of Impel Down City, which are nearly 80 billion beli.

Finally, the world government's clerks and the Judiciary Island add up to less than 50 billion beri.

It can be seen how contemptuous the previous Yimu and Wulaoxing were towards government and legal personnel.

These require actual expenditures, which add up to about 600 billion beri. What about the remaining treasure worth more than 180 billion beri?

Put them all into Mary Joa's treasure house for the Celestial Dragons to spend and enjoy at will!

The collected heavenly gold completely exceeds the actual demand. Im muttered to himself.

If it is just to ensure the quality of life of the Tianlong people, where is the need for so much wealth? Twenty billion beli every year is enough to enjoy the highest standard of things, right?

To reduce it, we must reduce the amount of heavenly gold. It is best to charge flexibly in proportion according to the situation of each country!

But he also knew that he couldn't rush this matter. This year's World Conference was about to be held, and if everything was put on the table, it would definitely cause chaos.

First, let CIPHER POL check which participating countries have too much money in the sky and the people are in dire straits, and then find out whether it is really unbearable for the whole country, or whether it is because the royal family of the country allocates it to the citizens!

Those that are really unaffordable for the whole country can be like the bear's Sobel Kingdom, where the amount of heavenly gold can be appropriately reduced to ensure that they can basically survive.

Im has already decided on the topic for the next world conference.

Then he picked up another report, which mainly contained information on the three armies. The so-called three armies, namely the navy, the army and the Holy Land garrison.

The Army is responsible for guarding the important facilities of the World Government and the entire Red Earth Continent, because according to the current World Government laws, civilians are prohibited from coming up without permission, but some people just want to come up. So they need to be cleared out.

The Holy Land Guards, as the name suggests, is mainly responsible for guarding Mary Joa. If the Celestial Dragons want to 'go down to earth' to play, they also need to send people to follow them.

Im doesn't care about these two troops now. There may be big moves in the future.

navy.

According to the report, the total strength of the navy is now about 500,000. The naval headquarters of the Grand Line and all the G departments and branches add up to about 50,000. The other four seas have a total of 450,000, but it is not even. For example, the East China Sea is the most peaceful. Relatively few.

In fact, the participating countries have their own armies, and the navy only needs to be responsible for order at sea, so there are no excessive troop requirements.

Their main need is warships!

Until now, the Navy has a total of 70 large warships of the War Behemoth class used for the Demon-Slaying Order, and a thousand headquarters-class medium-sized warships, of which fifty are permanently stationed at the Navy Headquarters, and the remaining 900 are scattered among various G departments and divisions. , and there are more than 4,000 small warships in about 200 branch bases all over the world.

still the same.

It is not an even distribution. Relatively speaking, the G base of the 'New World' definitely needs more warships. After all, they are facing the most vicious and powerful pirate force.

No wonder Wulaoxing and the others have been suppressing the development of the navy. Whether it is military strength or authority, it is indeed a bit too big. Im murmured thoughtfully.

We certainly cannot use the navy at this stage, but we do need to find ways to balance it in the future.

Thank you very much to Fu Sheng who caught the kitten for the 100 reward! This is the first tip for this book, and I am very excited. Thank you again for your tip, which provides me with a lot of motivation!

Basics on the Total Strength of the Navy

1. It is now known that the permanent strength of the G-8 branch is 1,000 people, so the eight G branches have a total of 8,000 people.

2. The Navy Headquarters should have more permanent troops than the G branch. It has 10,000 people.

3. The navy will set up a naval branch near each joining country, and there will naturally be one on the Great Line, but each branch cannot have more troops than the G branch, and the four-sea branch has even fewer naval forces.

4. There are more than 170 known franchise countries.

Therefore, with the addition of the Grand Route and the Four Seas, the total strength of the navy is really small, perhaps less than 400,000, which I know everyone thinks is outrageous.

But this is the result Oda gives in the manga.

But fortunately, my book has a time-traveler Im as the protagonist, so in the following content, I will expand the army to bring the strength of the three armies to a reasonable size.
