Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 481: Wish Power Maker (asking for monthly ticket~)

"I see. So Grandfather has been alive all this time?"

In the Flower City, in the reception room of the general's mansion.

Hearing that Chihong had lifted the veil of Kozuki Sukiyaki without hesitation and told him everything, Kozuki Hiyori, who was sitting upright, couldn't help but have a gleam of joy in his eyes.

Although Kozuki Hiyori and Kozuki Sukiyaki have rarely met, she was the only one left in the Kozuki family, and she was able to hear the news that her biological grandfather was still alive...

This is already a great fortune for Kozuki Hiyori.

After a sigh, Kozuki Hiyori slowly raised her head, with a look of gratitude on her pretty face.

"Thank you, Lord Chihong, for telling me this news."

"As for what you said about the whole nation participating in the Pokémon World..."

"Please forgive my ignorance. Wano Country is in a state of disrepair and has many complicated affairs. I don't know much about the Pokémon World you mentioned."

"fine."

Chihong, who was not used to the etiquette of Wano Country, sat casually on the cushion, smiled and waved his hand:

"After all, you have been isolated from the outside world for so many years. It is unlikely that you will be able to connect with the outside world immediately."

"So I brought some gaming equipment with me for you to try."

"in addition……"

Chi Hong raised her head slightly, looked through the open window toward the outskirts of Flower City, and spoke again:

"Although it has gone through a lot of hardships, Wano Country is still one of the largest in the world in terms of population and territory."

"With such excellent conditions, it would be a pity if we don't make full use of them."

"This..." A hint of doubt flashed across Kozuki Hiyori's beautiful eyes, "Mr. Chihong, what do you mean?"

"How about this!" Chihong raised her lips slightly, "Starting today, we will implement a new birth policy in Wano Country!"

"Every family will receive a generous cash bonus for every additional child they have, and the state will cover the cost of raising all infants and young children and provide them with a unified education."

"And after reaching adulthood, you can also obtain adult real estate donated by the Wano government."

"The more children you have, the more rewards you will receive. The bigger the family, the greater the overall assets of the family!"

"what!?"

Seeing Akane getting more and more excited, Kozuki Hiyori was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly asked without knowing why:
"But Lord Akane, given the current situation of Wano Country, we are simply unable to bear the conditions you mentioned."

"What's more, Wano Country is currently undergoing a massive construction program, and all walks of life are in urgent need of manpower. If a large number of families are forced to give birth again, it will greatly affect the normal development of Wano Country!"

"It's ok!"

Red waved his hand.

"The Straw Hat Pirates are willing to pay for all expenses of Wano Country, and you can put your original construction plans aside for now."

"Just building some ordinary bungalows and expanding the villages and towns will not have much effect at all."

"Next, we will send a large number of clone engineering teams to help Wano Country carry out a new transformation, using advanced construction technology and plans, as well as new construction materials produced by the Wapol Devouring Factory..."

"In less than two or three years, Wano Country will have tall buildings and various advanced towns rising from the ground, and people will live a prosperous life."

"And the residents of Wano Country only need to enjoy the blessings brought by the birth policy!"

"Their mission is to continue to reproduce and expand the population of Wano Country."

"But……"

Kozuki Hiyori still thought this policy was crazy and continued to wonder:

"What is your purpose?"

"Investing so much money and resources only to cause Wano's population to explode..."

"Population is the most important resource in the world!"

Without waiting for Kozuki Hiyori to finish, Akahō interrupted him and said with a smile:
"To be honest, I need a large number of people to enter the Pokémon World for some special reasons."

"That's why I'm proposing to you the plan for everyone to enter the Pokémon World."

"As long as everyone's life needs are met and every household has pregnant women with limited mobility, then in the future, the only thing the residents of Wano Country can do is stay at home and enjoy the happiness brought by virtual world games."

"So, your purpose is still for this virtual game?"

Kozuki Hiyori pursed her lips. From the perspective of a ruler, she certainly didn't want all the people in Wano Country to ignore production and enter a so-called virtual world to waste their lives.

In the long run, Wano Country will definitely become a country that depends on the Straw Hat Pirates for its existence.

If something happens to the Straw Hat Pirates and they are unable to achieve the promised rewards and the funds and resources to maintain the operation of Wano Country, it would be a disaster for Wano Country, which has a large population but poor productivity.

The military, economy, and education are all controlled by people. This is definitely not the situation that a healthy country should have.

but……

From the perspective of an ordinary resident of Wano Country, there is no hard work every day and one can still have a rich life. The instinct to continue the bloodline not only does not bring any burden, but will bring rich rewards to the family.

All they have to do is play a virtual game mainly for entertainment.

This kind of life is simply the dream of everyone living in poverty and hardship, right? ?

Because of the Kozuki family's weakness, the people of Wano Country have suffered for decades, and now there is a chance to make it up to them.

For a moment, Kozuki Hiyori didn't know how to make a choice.

But this dilemma did not last long in her heart.

Just a moment later, she raised her head, nodded gently to Chihong and said:
"In that case, then let's do as you say, Lord Chihong."

"At least this way, the residents of Wano Country can have a truly happy time."

"It was a wise decision. It was indeed the right decision to let you be the general of Wano Country." Chihong raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Yes.

What qualifications does Kozuki Hiwa have to choose?
The moment Akane said what he wanted Wano Country to do, the matter had actually been decided.

She had no doubt that if she refused or delayed making a decision, the position of Shogun of Wano Country might be transferred to someone else again after she finally returned to the Kozuki family.

In front of the Straw Hat Pirates, she had no choice at all.

Fortunately, the conditions offered by Chihong were generous enough.

After all, he is not like Kurozumi Orochi and Kaido, who want to make the people of Wano country fall into dire straits.

Instead, it allows Wano Country to fall into a gentle environment that may corrupt itself.

This is the greatest tolerance the Straw Hat Pirates can offer.

……

……

a few days later.

Akane quickly finalized the fertility reward for Wano Country with Kozuki Hiyori, and distributed it to every corner of Wano Country in the name of the general.

In an instant, the policy that made people doubt whether it was a dream became a smile on the faces of everyone in Wano Country.

In just half a month, a large number of marriages appeared in Wano Country, which was originally in trouble.

The original couples, regardless of gender, age or status, also put down their work and began to work hard.

How much money can you get for work?!
How can a mere living standard be compared with the new population incentive policy? !

After ten months of pregnancy, you can gain rewards comparable to those gained from three to five years of hard work!
Under such encouragement, the entire Wano Country quickly entered a strange state.

There were almost no pedestrians on the street, and the shops that originally operated various industries were quickly changed to sell only mother and baby products.

In order to avoid various diseases caused by rushing to give birth to women, Wano Country has also implemented many policies to facilitate women.

Regular free physical examinations, home-based maternity checks, and nutritional supplements available as long as you are pregnant.

For a time, the status of women in Wano Country rose sharply, but because they were in the state of waiting for childbirth and giving birth for a long time, there was no extreme feminism.

Just like that, as a batch of gaming helmets were distributed to everyone in Wano Country based on the population...

The entire Wano Country, which was in a state of doing nothing, officially came into contact with and settled in the "Pokémon World", injecting a large amount of fresh blood into this virtual world.

……

……

"In this way, a brand new wish-making machine has been built."

Above the Flower City, a strange smile appeared at the corners of his red mouth as he looked at the streets that had become deserted in just one month.
