One Piece: Farming from the Rocks Era

If the navy wants to truly gain power in the future, it still has to wait until the three admirals rise. The current navy can only maintain public order.

Due to the impact of the war and the issue of naval expansion, the World Government had to start inflation mode ahead of schedule in order to obtain sufficient funds.

The currency was printed crazily, and in just one year its value depreciated by nearly half.

This is because the Celestial Dragons are all imprisoned in Marijoa and have not gone out to consume. Otherwise, the World Government would have released even more water.

But despite this, Linde felt very distressed when he saw his shrinking wealth, so he also started to flood the market with money.

Although he did not do things like printing counterfeit money, he was frantically converting the Bailey in his hands into other wealth.

For example, they were frantically building infrastructure in the core area of ​​Oran Island, and even used money to purchase the territories of various forces in the Oran Sea.

During this year, because Zhan Guo had been staying in the West Sea for some unknown reason, many things for Linde were difficult to handle.

In addition, the battle of God Valley was approaching, and Lind needed to prepare early, so Lind put most of his energy back to the Oran Sea.

During this year, through various means, whether it was coercion, inducement, or assassination and murder, Lind finally took complete control of the Oran Sea.

It achieved centralization and made it its own.

The original kingdoms and so on, if they were sensible, could still have a decent life, gain enough wealth, and retain their own families.

Even outstanding children can join various departments under Linde and develop themselves.

If you don't know what's best for you, with the world in such chaos and the navy so strong now, Orland Island will have to concentrate most of its forces on the front line in order to resist the navy's attack.

The few remaining troops had to focus on important islands and core islands such as Orland Island. It would be normal for there to be omissions in the defense of those territories that were not directly under their jurisdiction.

Haven’t you noticed that there are not as many merchant ships on Åland Island as before? Isn’t it because the sea is too chaotic and it is difficult to ensure the safety of the goods as before?

If it weren't for the sudden rise of Azure Queen Lazzli, her Azure Lane would be powerful enough to withstand the attacks of the pirates on the road.

Business on Åland Island will be greatly affected.

Due to the combination of various factors, the various forces in the Oran Sea had to compromise and follow Lind's rules, allowing Lind to complete his direct jurisdiction over the Oran Sea.

In addition to using Lind's money to develop the Aland Sea, he also spent it on shopping everywhere.

Why did Lazili develop so fast? Where did she get the money to buy the boat? Didn’t Linde give it to her secretly?

Of course, on the surface, Lazili obtained a huge treasure and also had the world's strongest salvage team, and gained a lot of wealth by salvaging shipwrecks.

Fortunately, Lazili is strong and sensible, and she paid protection fees to Rocks and the navy.

He also used Shi Da, the second naval leader of the Flower Kingdom, to hook up with the Flower Kingdom and maintained good relations with several naval forces of the Flower Kingdom.

Otherwise, Lazili might not be able to withstand such huge wealth and power.

In addition to Lazili, others like Robert's Web and the Hunter's Heart, which Liana is now directly responsible for, have also achieved good development.

It’s just not as amazing as Lazili, after all, they are all light assets.

Although Linde has also invested in some heavy asset projects, they are all scattered and gradually penetrate into various industries in Xihai.

In addition, although Zhan Guo has always been in charge of the West Sea, he is only in charge of public security after all.

Linde has been in the West Sea for a year, but he can no longer directly form allied countries like Axel did before, but it is not difficult for him to unite various forces.

Zhan Guo had no reason to interfere in the struggle between the forces in the West Sea. In addition, these forces were very "sensible" and willing to bribe Zhan Guo.

As a result, a very magical phenomenon appeared in the West Sea: the navy and the Rocks Pirates were fighting to the death on the front line, and the major forces in the West Sea were fighting to the death in the rear.

In order to prevent the Rocks Pirates from interfering in the dispute in the West Sea, these forces even continued to provide funds to Sengoku, allowing Sengoku to keep the Rocks Pirates out.

Because of sufficient funding and occasional condolences from various forces in the West Sea, the West Sea Navy is very enthusiastic about fighting pirates.

With the presence of the great general Sengoku, although the West Sea is secretly very chaotic and the major forces are constantly changing, compared to other seas where pirates and navies are fighting everywhere, the public security here is the best among all seas.

Compared to those pirates, the ordinary people affected by the struggles between various forces are simply not worth mentioning.

In this way, Lind's West Sea strategy progressed very smoothly with the influence of the war, and even hatched two kings of the dark world, the Azure Queen Lazili and the King of Assassination Robert.

It’s worth it that Linde invested so much money and so many people in Xihai.

If Lind had not focused most of his energy on the Oran Sea, even if the Warring States were lurking there, Lind would have been confident that he could shape the West Sea into his own shape.

So even though Bailey continues to depreciate, the impact on Linde is limited. As long as I spend fast and earn fast, I am not afraid of depreciation.

After all, Pele can depreciate, Åland Island's specialties can also increase in price, and protection fees are directly collected on a proportional basis.

The money earned is spent immediately and converted into various forms of wealth, and it is basically not saved in the form of Bailey.

Even under Lind's influence, Lind's men and the residents of the Oran Sea lost the habit of saving money and spent like crazy.

Instead, it significantly boosted the GDP of the Aoland Sea area and also had a positive impact on the economic recovery of the territories recovered later.

After all, Lind's men and the residents of Orland Island are much richer than people in other places.

However, having been used to a hard life, his desire to consume was obviously not high. Even though Linde paid him so much salary, he saved it all.

This makes Lind's Aland Island very similar to the early days of a certain big country in his previous life. The economy is mainly driven by foreign trade and investment. Although there is consumption, it is not high.

Now, because of the operation of the world government, the money that is saved will depreciate if it is not spent. This has greatly stimulated those who like to save money.

But this is not a solution after all. This development model is definitely problematic, and residents must have sufficient savings.

Moreover, the depreciation of Bailey is not just now, but will continue in the future. Linde has to start preparing for its own independent currency system in advance.

It just so happened that the Oran Sea was now completely under his control, and Lind had sufficient gold reserves.

It is estimated that it will be difficult for the world government to have enough power to attack itself specifically.

Take a day off

Family members, something urgent has happened, so I'd like to take a day off and sort out my subsequent ideas.

Chapter 157 What I mean is, you have to pay more

After another year of peaceful development on Åland Island, with the decisive battle approaching, Lind felt that his captain's mission could not be delayed any longer.

It's time to arrange someone to deal with the user of the Mirror-Mirror Fruit from the World Government. While thinking about it, Lin De called Da Kun to the office.

"Da Kun, we can close the case on the user of the Mirror-Mirror Fruit now. I want to see the result within ten days!"

In the Sabaody Archipelago, inside a luxury hotel.

"Mr. Donald, this is 2000 million Baileys. I want the specific movement trajectory of the person with the Mirror-Mirror Fruit ability."

"After the deal is done, another 8000 million Baileys will be given."

Xuanniao opened the suitcase in his hand and said to the thin Donald.

"Mr. Xuanniao, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that Gul'dan is not under my command, and his status is rather special, so it's better to keep it secret."

"Although I am considered a high-ranking official in the World Government and know some information about the CP organization, I am somewhat powerless to do anything about it."

Seeing Donald's helpless expression, Xuanniao said nothing more. He raised his hand to close the suitcase and leave the hotel.

Looking at Xuanniao's actions, Donald quickly reached out to stop Xuanniao's actions and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Mr. Xuanniao. Although I have no way, there must be someone in the World Government who knows Gul'dan's whereabouts."

"It's just that this will inevitably require some connections, and this money may not be enough."

"5000 million Baileys as a deposit, and another million Baileys after the deal is done!"

Xuanniao clapped his hands as he spoke, and soon one of his men walked into the room with a suitcase.

Looking at Xuanniao's display of wealth and power, Donald's eyes flashed with greed. He continued:

"Mr. Xuanniao, Gul'dan is related to the war between the World Government and the Rocks Pirates. The higher-ups are keeping a close eye on us. It's very risky for me to do this."

"This money is not enough. One hundred million Baileys as a deposit, and another hundred million Baileys after the deal is done!"

Donald stretched out a finger and said to Xuanniao.

"I hope Mr. Donald will not disappoint me. If we take the money but do not do the job, you know our methods. You are not as well protected as Gul'dan."

Xuanniao looked at Donald with cold eyes, agreed to Donald's request, told his men to give Donald 100 million Baileys, and then left the hotel directly.

As a veteran who specializes in this field, Donald is still very efficient.

It only took three days to get what Xuanniao wanted.

"Mr. Xuanniao, in three days, CP0's leader, Ginyu, will hold a birthday party in the Sabaody Archipelago, and Gul'dan will attend."

“Here are the specific time and place, as well as some of the participants.”

Donald smiled and handed Xuanniao an envelope.

"Very good. Come back here in three days to get the remaining 100 million Baileys."

Xuanniao kept a poker face and left the room directly after getting the envelope.

......

Three days later, in the Chabaotier Archipelago, Prince Hotel, in a private room on the top floor.

More than a dozen senior members of the CP organization took off their work clothes, removed their masks, changed into ordinary people's clothes, and chatted and laughed in a private room. If you didn't know better, you would have thought it was just a gathering of ordinary friends.

“Haha, if it weren’t for Donald’s intelligence, who would have thought that these guys would celebrate their birthdays here.”

"It is estimated that the CP organization will be seriously injured this time. I don't know when it will recover. I guess we can't count on it for this war."

In a basement near the Prince Hotel, several young men in suits were watching the scenes on the screen, laughing and discussing.

Linde's team of scientists was not raised in vain after all, although many electronic devices from the previous life were difficult to produce due to the special magnetic field of this world.

But as long as the signal is confined to a small area, it is still easy.

At this time, the young men in the basement were using the epoch-making equipment, the pinhole camera, to monitor the CP executives in the private room.

"The guy in the middle of the box, next to Ginyu, should be Gul'dan."

"The protagonist has arrived. If we delay, chaos will ensue. Let's capture Gul'dan as soon as possible and then retreat."

The leading Xuanniao said in a deep voice.

"Officer Sibeka, I'm sorry to bother you this time."

"It's okay, it's all for the mission."

Specka waved her hand and opened a portal.
