Pirates: Building High Walls Starting from the East Blue

"All of those combined don't even amount to 10 billion Berries!" Nami glared at Shache, then counted on her fingers in frustration, saying, "And here... even with the help of those pirates, we still have so many places where we need money, like the establishment of the cosmetics factory, naval training costs, and Alabasta cooperation expenses..."

Nami got a headache every time someone mentioned it.

"Now you're still wasting money everywhere, where am I supposed to find 10 billion Berries?!"

It seemed as if he wanted nothing more than to grab Xia Che by the collar and tell him that he was quitting and that Xia Che should find someone else to do the job!

however.

Shache already had a plan for dealing with the enraged Nami.

He stood up abruptly and stood in front of Nami.

really.

Seeing him stand up, Nami immediately calmed down and looked at Shache in confusion, "What are you doing?!" She put her hands on her hips and said, "No matter what you say, there's nothing I can do."

But then he sighed.

"I don't even know what you're going to do with 10 billion? Is it that important? Forget it~" She pouted. "I'll go back to the Konom Islands and see if the distillery has made its profits for the year. If all else fails, I'll just have to send Moke to the Grand Line to cause some trouble."

"..."

Seeing Nami already thinking about money, Shache smiled.

That's why he felt comfortable handing the money over to Nami.

Although Nami can be stingy at times, she's never stingy when it comes to spending money!

It is because of Nami that he doesn't have to worry about money.

"Thank you, Nami!"

"What are you talking about! Even if you say that, I can't possibly come up with the money all at once!" Hearing Xia Che's words, Nami snapped out of her daze, put her hands on her hips again, and retorted irritably, "If you waste money again next time, I won't let you off the hook. Now..." rubbing her forehead, "Let me go see where I can raise the money!"

As he was speaking, he was about to turn and leave.

“Hey, there’s really no need for all that trouble.” Xia Che stopped her, and under Nami’s puzzled look, he said with a meaningful tone, “It’s time to go dig for gold!”

After Chapter 75

The Land of Gold is indeed located on the Grand Line, but for various reasons, it is no longer on the surface of the Grand Line.

As a result, many people believe that the land of gold does not exist and is merely a legend.

Even if there is a legendary permanent pointer that can point to the land of gold, when that pointer arrives at that place... the permanent pointer simply stops moving.

Therefore, even now, a great many people still believe it to be fake!

Of course, Xia Che knew that was the right direction!

Although we don't know where the Saruyama Alliance is now, and we don't have a permanent pointer to reach Sky Island, Gaya Island is not hard to find!

The story of Gold Island still circulates throughout the Grand Line.

Even the bear who travels everywhere knows the story of the land of gold.

Since seeing that Bonnie could really heal, Big Bear has finally put aside his worries of so many years.

And they began to fulfill their previous promises, working diligently and earnestly, more so than before, and with many more warm smiles on their faces.

Upon learning that the trip was for Bonney's medical expenses and Vegapunk's research funding, although he longed to stay by Bonney's side and watch her get treatment, he, as her father, volunteered to go along.

Afterwards, Moke also heard about the legendary Golden Land. He was equally curious, so after leaving Red Romance, he didn't go out to work. Instead, he ran back to the 16th Marine Branch, thinking of going there to see for himself.

I saw that Moke and Big Bear went together too.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Che decided to call Klo, who was working at the time, to join him as well.

That's right, it hasn't even been a few days since Instructor Kro asked for leave again, which made the trainees, who had been training very hard these past few days, look reluctant to see him go.

Although these past few days have been tough, they have made very rapid progress under Instructor Kro's meticulous training!

Immediately afterwards...

The pleased instructor, Kro, said that after they returned, he would give them double the training to ensure that each of them would improve.

The students, reluctant to part, scattered in a panic.

Seeing this, Kro couldn't help but smile slightly. He had originally planned to visit Zango in the next couple of days and try to persuade him again, but now it seemed... he would have to postpone it for a few more days.

He was also very curious about the legendary land of gold!

I adjusted my glasses and set off.

only.

This time he refused to merge with Moklo Bear!

Seeing that the three of them were about to set off, he simply handed the task over to them. After all, with his Thor strategy guide, he believed that even if it was just Moke and Kro, they could clear the game. Moreover, this time, Big Bear was also with them.

And he wasn't disappointed...

a few days later.

The bear then handed over a portion of the gold, along with Enel, who had been beaten black and blue.

Moke beat him up!

This guy was even more arrogant than him, which made him itchy to fight.

Afterwards, they were all sent to Vegapunk's base. Upon seeing so much gold, Vegapunk was initially surprised, but then felt relieved.

The 16th Navy Division is really rich!

Moreover, that user of the Gluttony Fruit was indeed quite good, as he discovered quite a few other metals.

He even managed to find some expensive and rare metals from the ocean.

This peculiar ability sparked a multitude of interesting ideas in his mind.

Staying here might not be so bad!

Upon hearing about the Golden Land and the Sky Island, especially the historical texts on them, Vegapunk became very curious and wanted to go and see them.

What a pity~

His head is just too big.

The ocean is now searching for Vegapunk. Although it is transparent and quiet, it is still safer to stay here.

Vegapunk knew this too, and could only regretfully scratch his head, temporarily giving up. After writing down some necessary materials, he left with an angry Enel.

Unexpectedly, he managed to acquire a Logia-type Devil Fruit user. Vegapunk plans to study him thoroughly, especially since his research institute is currently short of energy and needs such a user!

Suddenly.

Enel, who was already furious, turned green with anger.

He was happily playing Thor on a sky island when he encountered two unscrupulous guys who launched a sneak attack. Before he could dodge, he was struck by something that made his body go limp.

The result is now...

These guys not only launched a sneak attack, but they're also planning to study him?

You must know he's a god!

This is blasphemy!

He kept cursing and yelling that Mok was uncivilized, demanding that he be released so he could have a proper duel with Mok.

pity.

No one paid him any attention; he was taken away by Vegapunk.

only.

With so many dangerous things in the Vegapunk lab, we still need to be careful.

After this.

Sky Island also became his secret territory.

Furthermore, Robin, Nami, and Kuina also went with him on a special trip.

Upon seeing so much gold, Nami's eyes lit up, radiating a light unique to Beli, as she shouted, "We're rich! We're finally rich again!"

They also forgave Xia Che for spending money so extravagantly this time, but still reminded him not to do it again!

Kuina, who was standing nearby, was also shocked by the sheer amount of gold before her.

only.

Her dream was to become the Great Female Swordsman of the Sea, so she wasn't as excited as Nami.

Having sparred with so many people during this time, her swordsmanship has improved considerably. She even plans to take Tashigi home sometime to give the old man a good beating and show him what she's made of.

As for Robin... while she wasn't uninterested in gold, she was more concerned with the history associated with it.

However, most of the recorded gold had been dug up by Enel, and the remaining gold did not contain the part of history she was looking for, so she could only sigh with regret.

But she recovered quickly and smiled as she watched the gold with Nami.

Uncovering that forgotten history was her mission as an orphan of Ohara, but now she had other pursuits, so she wasn't as persistent as before.

Shachet even thought Robin would complain a bit and then go back and give Enel a good beating, but she didn't.

I just hope to preserve that portion of the gold that bears the marks of history.

After all, it bears the marks of history!

Although somewhat surprised, Xia Che still followed his secretary's instructions and kept the gold.

Actually, it's not that much. Most of the gold that recorded history was melted down by Enel. Therefore, whether or not there are these hundreds of millions of dollars, it doesn't affect the current 16th Marine Division.

Overall, the trip to the land of gold was quite satisfying.

They also gained a lot.

……

The end of the year 1517 in the Haiyuan calendar.

The buzz surrounding Vegapunk's disappearance has not diminished; in fact, it has grown even more intense as the story spreads.

In order to obtain this world's greatest scientist, many forces have begun to mobilize and secretly investigate who stole Vegapunk.
