Chapter 325 Supporting Dragon - Taking Over the Lunar Factory

At the foot of a garbage mountain in the Kingdom of Goa, Dragon looked at the data summary in front of him and gently rubbed his temples.

The population statistics for the Kingdom of Goa have been released. The total population is now 260 million, of which 220 million are adults, and the remaining 40 are children. There are very few elderly people.

After all, it's difficult for the elderly to survive in a country littered with garbage.

Of these 260 million people, 200 million were developed as reserve members due to public trials, the "speaking bitterness" movement, and the rural development efforts of the revolutionary army soldiers.

The remaining 60 were not unwilling to join the People's Salvation Army, but rather they were too well hidden and extremely wary of outsiders.

They didn't give the militia any chance to make contact.

The growth of the revolutionary army was certainly a good thing, but it also brought about a sharp increase in logistical pressure.

Although the revolutionary army seized the granaries of the nobles of the Goa Kingdom, the nobles only numbered 2.

A granary can easily support 200 people, but it would be insufficient to support 2 million.

Moreover, they lacked not only food, but also weapons, bullets, shells, medicine, fruit, and clothing—they lacked everything.

There is one thing they have no shortage of: money.

The revolutionary army acquired a huge amount of assets from the nobles of the Goa Kingdom, but the Goa Kingdom is now blockaded on all sides, and foreign supplies cannot be transported in, nor can money be spent.

After thinking for a moment, Dorrag activated the Goddess of Wisdom call function and dialed Ning Yuan.

Ning Yuan stood at the Seven Waters dock, watching a ship full of shipwrights leave the Seven Waters. On this ship were not only hundreds of frustrated shipwrights, but also Frankie, the disciple of Master Tom.

The way to recruit these craftsmen is simple: just offer them good pay.

The method to recruit Franky was simple: allow him to bring the Franky family along to Alabasta, and pay each of them a full salary.

Even though Franky didn't want to leave Water Seven, he couldn't bring himself to refuse in the face of the expectant gazes of his entire family.

"Feed?" Ning Yuan answered the phone after seeing the message from Dorrag.

"The Goa Kingdom is in a bad situation!" Dragon said. "The World Government has gone mad, mobilizing the entire East Blue to encircle and suppress them!"

"That's normal. You killed all the nobles in the Kingdom of Goa, so the other nobles were scared!" Ning Yuan laughed.

The reason is simple: the revolutionary army in the past also killed nobles, but only the king and a few other leading nobles.

This way, the entire class was not offended; only a portion of the class was offended.

But now, the revolutionary army is purging the entire aristocratic class, so naturally, that class can't sit still.

Despite the fact that it was Steel Bone who led the attack on the revolutionary army, his soldiers, and even the marines, were supported by nobles.

If those nobles really disagreed, they wouldn't have sent their elite troops to Clover Island.

Even if Cyborg is incredibly powerful, he can't fight a war with a bunch of old, weak, and disabled people.

Seeing that Ning Yuan could still smile, Dorrag felt much more relaxed: "I need support. It seems you have a way to get the supplies in!"

The Goa Kingdom is currently sealed off on all sides, so normal methods are definitely not an option.

"What a coincidence!" Ning Yuan laughed. "I just obtained a Door-Door Fruit, which can open portals to transport supplies, so there's no need to take a boat!"

"Is that so?" Dragon's eyes lit up. "Then we'll leave our logistics to you!"

Ning Yuan nodded and said, "I've sent you the price list. You'll need to free up a few warehouses, and I'll deliver the supplies there regularly each week!"

Dorrag nodded, without asking why the aid supplies had to be purchased with money.

If he doesn't spend money, it's equivalent to Alabasta using its national strength to support the revolutionary army. It might be okay in the short term, but Alabasta won't be able to hold on for long.

But buying it with money is different; it's equivalent to supporting Alabasta's infrastructure development and industrialization.

If things are done this way, even if the Goa Kingdom's wave is suppressed, Alabasta will become richer.

Alabasta can continue to provide support when the Revolutionary Army moves to a different location to cause trouble.

As for whether it will cause suffering for the people of the Goa Kingdom, they wouldn't have needed to fight if the Revolutionary Army hadn't come.

Before the revolutionary army arrived, these people could only find food in garbage dumps, and many died from disease and starvation, or from fighting over food.

Now, at least they can die on the path of fighting for freedom and dignity.

They were fighting for themselves, not for the revolutionary army.

There has never been a savior, nor can one rely on gods or emperors. If they want to create a happy life, they can only rely on themselves!

After hanging up the phone, Ning Yuan asked the Goddess of Wisdom again, "Can we hold on at the iron and copper mines?"

Iron is used to make guns and cannons, while copper is used to make bullets and cannonballs.

As for the other gunpowder components, Ning Yuan plans to extract them using seawater.

The amount of seawater is practically limitless, and the elements it contains, such as chlorine, sodium, sulfur, magnesium, calcium, potassium, carbon, bromine, strontium, boron, fluorine, and silicon, are also limitless. These elements are enough to make not only black powder, but also TNT.

After all, the main elements of TNT are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen.

Gunpowder is unlimited, but iron and copper are not. Alabasta has iron and copper mines, but the reserves are not large, and a large amount of them are used for infrastructure construction.

"We can excavate the Red Earth!" said the goddess of wisdom. "Exploration has revealed that the Red Earth contains abundant amounts of metallic elements such as iron, copper, manganese, titanium, and chromium!"

"Is that so?" Ning Yuan was taken aback; it seemed to be true.

If the soil is red, it definitely has a high copper content.

Moreover, iron oxide is also red.

The main reason why no one has thought about excavating the red earth continent is that the metallurgical industry is not developed in most countries of the world.

As for the claim that the Red Earth is extremely hard and impervious to swords and blades, that's a matter of personal opinion.

For an industrialized nation, this is not a problem at all; both detonators and tunnel boring machines can easily carve large holes in the red earth.

"Not just the Red Earth!" the goddess of wisdom added, "We can also open portals on other planets and mine metals there!"

With the Door-Door Fruit, the entire solar system, and even the outer galaxies, can be accessed via portals, wherever Athena can detect.

This makes extraterrestrial mining possible.

There are all kinds of metals in the starry sky, including pure iron-nickel alloy meteorites, pure diamond meteorites, and planets covered with rare earth elements.

Moreover, the moon, which is so close by, is covered in helium-3!

This thing can not only be used to make hydrogen bombs, but also to achieve controlled nuclear fusion.

"Then let's get started!" Ning Yuan said calmly. "The factories within Alabasta need to maintain a high level of technology, keeping it at pre-World War I levels. All modern technology should be placed on other planets. By the way, are there any existing factories on the moon?"

"Yes!" said the goddess of wisdom. "The moon not only has ready-made robot factories, but also energy factories, mines, and shipbuilding factories, although most of them are shut down!"

The historical text clearly states that there have never been any moon people in this world, only a huge kingdom with extremely advanced technology.

The Great Kingdom of that time not only possessed Devil Fruit manufacturing technology, but also genetic modification technology, artificial intelligence technology, and robotics technology.

They also used Devil Fruit manufacturing technology to land on the moon, built factories there, and prepared to build warships in the starry sky to conquer the stars and the sea.

If it weren't for the sudden rebellion within the country, coupled with the joint siege by other kingdoms, this enormous kingdom would have long since become a star-level civilization.

Now that the Great Kingdom is gone, its factories on the moon have naturally ceased operation. Only a small number of robots are still performing routine maintenance, awaiting the return of the Great Kingdom's descendants.

"Then let's take over the factories on the moon!" Ning Yuan said. "We'll finish the unfinished work of the Great Kingdom!"

The factories in the Great Kingdom are all intelligently controlled, so as long as the factory's firewall and internal programs are cracked, the factory can be taken over.

The goddess of wisdom can easily destroy unmanned firewalls and then take over the factory.

This wasn't done before because the goddess of wisdom's signal could only cover one planet and couldn't reach the moon.

But now that we have a portal, everything is different. All we need to do is build a portal between the Earth and the Moon, and the signal will naturally spread.

Although the Kingdom Factory also has combat robots, these robots can only fight living things and are of no help at all in electronic warfare.

In the blink of an eye, Ning Yuan had a smart, unmanned factory that far surpassed modern technology.

"This factory is amazing!"

After taking over the factory, Ning Yuan immediately checked its status.

Then he realized that he had overestimated the factory's technological level as much as possible, but in fact, he had underestimated it.

The metal processing precision of this factory has reached IT1 level, which can be called ultra-precision machining on Earth.

They've almost reached the point where they can manufacture obelisks.

Beyond metal processing, this smart factory can also produce chips, specifically 1nm, ternary chips. The robots on the moon that can hop around and have normal conversations with humans use 1nm chips, which are called smart chips.

The factory's energy source is controlled nuclear fusion, but not in the Earth-based sense of controlled nuclear fusion; instead, it uses a captured golden crow to generate electricity.

That's right, Golden Crow, Bird-Bird Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Golden Crow form.

The fruit was eaten by an object of unknown material, and then began to emit light continuously 24 hours a day. This light was used to generate electricity to power the intelligent factory.

This factory may look like a robotics factory, but it can actually produce far more than just that.

The factory is only producing robots now because robots are needed on the moon. In reality, the factory can produce anything as long as there is a need and materials.

From lighters, pistols, and sniper rifles to aircraft carriers and interstellar warships, anything with the blueprints can be manufactured!

"What a pity!" Ning Yuan shook his head. The more he learned about the factory's capabilities, the more he felt it was a waste.

A vast kingdom with such advanced technology still perished!

The main reason is that the Great Kingdom relies too much on Devil Fruits and neglects to advance in the field of natural science. Don't be fooled by Ning Yuan's claim that this factory can manufacture aircraft carriers and interstellar warships; it's actually under Ning Yuan's control.

If it were in the hands of a giant kingdom, they wouldn't even be able to manufacture a tank.

Because the Great Kingdom relies so heavily on Devil Fruits, all the nation's top scientists are researching how to create more and better Devil Fruits.

If you want to fly, then just create a Devil Fruit that allows you to fly. Why bother researching flying machines?

Without people researching aircraft, airplanes cannot be built.

If no one studies tanks, then naturally no tanks can be built.

Even if the technical standards have been met, the inertia of thought means that if you can't think of it, you just can't.

As the saying goes, the strongest place in a country is also its weakest place.

The Great Kingdom rose to power because of Devil Fruits, and it will naturally decline because of Devil Fruits as well.

"By the way, my Great De Dynasty series is also halfway through!"

The fabricated history is still being written in Ningyuan. After more than ten days, they have almost finished writing about the rise of Dade. The World Economic Daily is still publishing it every day!

Because there are no detailed historical records of how the great kingdom rose to power, no one recognized the prototype of the story Ning Yuan wrote, and they all thought it was a historical novel!

But if I continue writing, I won't be able to keep it a secret anymore, because it involves Devil Fruit technology.

Even if the world government is slow to react, it should sense that something is wrong by then.

"I wonder what Morgans' reaction will be?" Ning Yuan thought to himself.

The world government will definitely react when it sees the article, but before they can react, the article must first be published.

Whether it can be published or not depends on Morgans' decision.

Morgans is still quite timid and doesn't dare to go against the World Government; he won't publish it if he doesn't want to.

"Looks like we'll have to confront Morgans!"
