I can only achieve nothing and become the Pirate King.

Chapter 659 O'Hara at Four in the Morning
Man!

Have you ever seen O'Hara at 4 a.m.?

Ajin, who has brown skin and has never heard of basketball, has never seen it, because he is not in O'Hara now, but in the first half of the first half of the New World, responsible for conquering the magnetic field island and surrounding islands.

It's just that Lily had seen it in O'Hara, or even earlier.

"Lady Lily, we have conquered Redchiled Island, Mysteria Island, and Thunder God Island one after another. We have also started to explore the surrounding areas with these magnetic islands as the center. I believe we will get results soon. At present, we have already stably controlled all the magnetic islands in the first half of the New World leading to Fishman Island."

Ajin called at around three in the morning and asked Lily to answer the call through the report from the junior officer.

The three islands he mentioned are the three islands pointed by the New World Record Pointer after coming out of Fishman Island. As islands with changeable climates, they are also the first hurdle for people entering the New World.

Because each one is very dangerous, especially Thunder God Island, where thunder clouds gather all year round and it seems like lightning is falling.

Such an island, even if the natural disaster pirates go there
It's like going back home.

Are you kidding? It was just lightning, wasn't it? The pirates who had followed Governor Sager on expeditions had long been accustomed to this kind of situation.

It's not difficult for them.

The conquest of the three islands also meant that the last large magnetic island connecting the New World to Fish-Man Island had been taken into their possession, and they now completely controlled the first half of the New World.

"Well, according to the original strategy, the central blooming mode, with the magnetic field island as the center, scatter the pirate ships, and map an island when you find it, and then place the life paper."

Lily nodded slightly and said, "The strategy for the first half of the journey can be handed over to others. You prepare and head to the front line after returning."

"Understood! Lady Lily!"

Den Den Mushi's expression suddenly became serious and full of determination.

"That's it. I have things to do."

Lily simply hung up the phone.

It's not a courtesy or an excuse, she is really busy.

At this point, she had just woken up from her bedroom and hadn't even changed her clothes.

"Ms. Lily."

Kalifa, who was serving beside him, said, "Do you need to take a shower and change clothes? I will help you."

"Let the maid come and give me the geological surveys of the recent islands, including the three newly reported by Ajin. They should have been reported before, right?"

Lily shook her head and stood up from the desk. Under the light, the loose white gauze long dress pajamas not only failed to hide her figure, but made it look even more swaying, especially her upper chest and lower hips, which actually supported the long dress and made it look more three-dimensional.

As you walk, your chest sways and is very elastic.

"Yes, the previous report has come out, I have recorded it."

"Well, give me the information about the magnetic field island first."

As she spoke, Lily walked into the bathroom first. Kalifa pushed up her glasses and followed her into the bathroom.

They are all in the palace. Although it is not the large bathhouse that Sage often uses, as the chief minister, her own palace is not small and has everything, and also has a large bathroom.

The bathroom is always filled with steam. The water is changed every few hours and will not be retained for too long. The maids in the bathroom work in shifts and are always ready to serve.

Lily held the information given by Kalifa in her hand, and walked towards the bath while reading it. Before she took two steps, two maids came up to her, gently took off her clothes, and two more maids sprinkled flower petals in the bath.

Lily didn't even look up. She entered the water, leaving behind her perfect back, as smooth as jade and not even covered by mist, hidden by the two maids.

Lily tilted her head back slightly, letting her long golden wavy hair spread in the water, and asked the maid to wash her. But she only closed her eyes for less than three minutes, then opened them again and looked carefully at the information in her hand.

She didn't enjoy washing as much as Sag did. It took her several hours to wash. Although there was a maid to serve her, it only took half an hour. After wiping her clean, the maid changed Lily into her white dress and buckled armor on her chest, arms and hips, which also meant that she had completely entered the working state.

During this period, her eyes never left the information.

After washing, Lily walked out of the bedroom and took ten minutes to reach her office. After sitting down, she pondered for less than three seconds and looked at Kalifa, "Ten magnetic field islands, I told you, remember them, and then report them to the three officers and ask them to deploy them."

Kalifa picked up the pen and paper skillfully, ready to write down Lily's words.

The magnetic field island, including the three islands mentioned by Ajin, is currently in the direction close to Fishman Island. There are two islands on each of the five routes. The information has appeared recently and is summarized together.

"Mondegu, this island is well developed, with a university and a church. The university will remain, and they will continue to teach what they should teach. As for the church, ask the local bishop if he is willing to replace the god with Sage. If not, abolish it and change the doctrine. There are many estates on the island, and it is a good place to produce red wine. We will focus on the red wine industry, which is also Sage's favorite."

"Sevimadrid, I see the land is fertile, it can be used for crops and there is grassland, so don't produce those extra things. I will set a few points and let those places convert. Cotton, tobacco and sheep are enough to produce these."

"Ceylon has a tropical monsoon climate and produces gemstones, but the content is too small. There is no need to impose more control on this aspect. I see that they grow tea well, so we should focus on this. They are also famous for their clothing, so we can do both."

Lily quickly spoke about the information she had memorized and the development plan she had made in half an hour.

The connectivity between islands is actually quite poor, but the transportation industry of their Calamity Pirates is not bad either, and basic connectivity has been achieved. It’s not that people are not allowed to do food production, but that kind of small-scale production is not included in the plan by default. What we are talking about now is the future main development direction of each island.

As for other side jobs, whoever wants to do them can do them, she only focuses on the main direction.

After mentioning several islands in a row and asking Kalifa to take note, Lily pondered for a while and said, "Among the three newest islands, Lidchiled Island is a tropical rainforest with abundant natural resources. It doesn't need to be used as an industry for the time being. In the early stage, it will be mainly used for mining and planting, and adjustments will be made later. Remember to remind me."

"Mysteria Island is very important. Copper and gold coexist here. We should deploy more troops on this island. Normal large magnetic islands have 500 to 1,000 troops stationed there. We should put 2,000 troops on this island. We must keep an eye on it."

"There is also Thunder God Island. There are quite a few animals during the frequent thunderstorms, and they are all ferocious beasts. The rest of the land is very barren, and there are not many people there. Let's see if we can do some breeding. If not, we can use it as a training ground. Harsh nature can best train people's will."

Not all magnetic field islands have human habitation and industry. Some are barren islands with nothing but bad weather.

After all, the climate is so bad that normal people would have found ways to migrate away long ago. No one would settle there.

However, this kind of island cannot be said to be useless. From an overall perspective, anyone who can survive on Thunder God Island and can survive the hunting of exotic beasts must be an elite, and it can indeed be used as a place of trial.

As for places with frequent thunderstorms, the land should be very fertile, but it has to be put on hold for now and cannot be developed for the time being. We will talk about it later. After deploying the magnetic field island, the next step is to discover other islands with the magnetic field island as the center.

"Can Sri Baga Island recommend a chief officer, Khalifa?" Lily asked Khalifa.

"Akai."

Kalifa thought for a moment and said, "He was an old subordinate of Governor Sager during the East Sea period. He worked well with us in Maryland before."

"Akai? I remember him. He used to be Creek's subordinate."

Lily smiled slightly. "It seems that he has a broken arm and one eye is blind, right? Okay, let's choose him. Well, let's choose Mani from the nearby Linya Island. He is an old subordinate from the Bridge Kingdom period. Let him be the chief officer."

Their strategic plan was to follow the recorded pointer, occupy the large magnetic island first, and then start sending exploration ships with navigators on board. When they found an island, they would start mapping the sea and bury the life paper of a specific person.

Then the follow-up troops began to land and conquer. This method had been used before during the conquest and it had worked every time with very good results.

However, conquest alone is useless. What's the point of raising a flag? When Sage nominally ruled in the first half, many surrounding islands had raised flags, but because of the problem of expansion limit, they did not take any action and also did not recognize it.

In order to actually control an island, one must have subordinates stationed there and serve as the chief officer.

In the past, the candidates were all elites, and those who were capable of controlling the situation with force or those who were capable of handling troubles were all sent to the island.

The expansion is so rapid now that it is impossible to select them one by one, so when Lily asked Sag, Sag waved his hand and let the group of old subordinates take on more responsibilities while enjoying the benefits at the same time.

The chief officer has great responsibilities, but his status is not low, with high salary and great power. For many people, being a chief officer is no different from being a pensioner.

As pirates, they are not that precise and efficient, so it’s pretty much the same. Just be loyal to Sarge and follow the rules.

The old subordinates have always been passing down that famous saying: they had already suffered enough after they and Sage entered Augustus.

This is also the truth. Since the East China Sea period, they have been going through wind and rain, fighting with the navy, grappling with guards, going through storms, and overcoming fierce waves. How many casualties have led to this day.

Although Sager is very powerful, he can't do everything by himself, he still needs subordinates to do the work.

And now, it is time to start reaping the fruits of victory.

fair?

They are pirates, and fairness comes from Sarge alone. If you don't agree, go find him.

After dealing with more than thirty islands with weak magnetic fields that could not be identified with the recording pointer, Lily began to coordinate some affairs of the conquered islands, and the time had come to seven o'clock.

The maids pushed the dining cart into the office, placed breakfast on the table, and then served respectfully.

Lily sat at the head of the table and invited Kalifa to sit down. She scooped a spoonful of the thick soup in front of her, took a sip, frowned again, and then chuckled:
"My taste has changed, too. Marika has been too busy to cook recently."

"Ms. Marika has been having a hard time managing logistics issues lately, and the Governor has been patient for several days." Kalifa also smiled, "But I think this tastes good too."

Lily nodded slightly and continued, "Cut half of the stone mining area in Tiltren to mine magnets. With so many islands, we need a lot of materials to make permanent pointers."

"Stop 30% of the gold mine in Serente and focus more on spices. There are some special spices on the newly conquered island. Let's see if we can grow them on this island and try to increase production."

Rare spices must come from specific lands. Some islands have very little land in this regard, but those spices are very good. Fortunately, the land is large, so they can try to grow them on other islands.

After all, with so many islands, it is not possible to complete the project according to the plan once it is finalized. Some changes also need to be adapted to the circumstances.

An island that is mined for stones cannot continue to do so as it will eventually run dry and will easily damage the island's ecology. A gradual transformation is needed.

Problems like this are also what Lily focuses on.

Breakfast was eaten while planning for other islands. After partially dealing with the affairs of these old islands, it was ten o'clock.

"Do you want to meet the two newcomers this time?"

Seeing that Lily had finished her basic work, Khalifa, as her secretary, brought up some new things in a timely manner.

"Oh those two in Hyrule."

Lily nodded, "Is there enough time to deal with it today?"

"That's enough, you have ten minutes." Khalifa said.

"Then let them come."

After dealing with the island affairs, Sivir and Heinrich came to O'Hara and waited for an audience. They would arrive at the palace reception room every day and stay there all day.

The main reason is that Lily has no time to take care of them. As for Sarge
Why does he need subordinates to take charge?
Lily never counted on Sarge in this regard.

In about three minutes, Sivir and Heinrich arrived at the office. Before they could even open their mouths, Lily said directly:
"I know your information, and it was my suggestion to persuade you to surrender. I'm too busy, so I hope you can share some of the work with me. However, I still need to verify your abilities."

Lily looked at Sivir, who was three points confused, three points shocked, three points uncomfortable, and ninety-one points bewildered, and said:

"I have high hopes for you, and I really hope you can be my chief officer. Muna Island is not far from Hyrule. I will send you there to be the chief officer, and I will only give you one month."

"The requirement is that all the local people have a high admiration for Sager, and the industry there is very chaotic. I need you to sort it out and work out the main business that is most suitable for that island. Of course, the information and our O'Hara's business structure will be sent to you at the same time. Is there any problem?"

"me"

Just as Sivir was about to speak, Lily waved her hand and said, "It's settled. You can choose the number of people yourself. You can also bring your old subordinates who have been brainwashed by you. The ship is at the port. Go and take up your post now."

As she spoke, she asked the maids to lead Sivir out, and then looked at Heinrich, "Your ability is very useful. I heard that you can control eagles. Are you interested in taking charge of the newspaper industry and distributing intelligence?"

The abilities this guy currently possesses are very similar to those of Morgans, which can just solve Sag's recent plan.

Distribute information on the three major road signs, and deliver papers to the second half!
