From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

"That's not a problem, but it'll cost extra." "Fuck you... I'll pay extra!"

Just like that, Diarmuid, holding three devil fruits in his arms, completed the handover of 400 million berries with the rich man from Sky Island in front of the stunned navy at Gion Port.

Only after the warship left the port did Gion come back to his senses from his state of shock.

Four hundred million berries? Three devil fruits?

There's also the Thunder Fruit! ?

Diarmait, you'd be at a loss if you didn't become a businessman!

"Is this the Thunder Fruit?!" Gion said excitedly, looking at the devil fruit in his hand. Diarmuid smiled and said, "Yes, it's the so-called invincible Thunder Fruit..."

Before he could finish his words, Gion, perhaps because he was too excited or had been harboring evil intentions for a long time, rushed over, hugged Diarmait's head, and kissed him hard. Then he patted Diarmait's shoulder and said proudly, "Hahahaha, Diarmait, from now on, your affairs will be Gion's affairs. Don't worry, I have your back in the navy!" "I'm a candidate for admiral, do I need a major general like you to protect me?" Diarmait wiped his mouth and said with disgust.

But you know what, it seems like Gion's lips are quite sweet?

Could it be that this damn woman is trying to seduce me?

I treat you as my subordinate, but you want to be my wife?

Chapter 101: Shit on Kuzan's Head? (Updated)

The land of gold? Mount Dora.

It's not surprising. It has been here for many years. Roger's pirate group has been here before, but they didn't sweep away all the wealth here.

I guess some of it was taken away, but the bulk of it was left here.

Money can move people's hearts. I have to say, this land of gold is really terrifying.

After hundreds of years of wind and rain, the entire city was covered with a thick layer of mud. Occasionally, there were exposed parts that were golden.

Not surprisingly, the entire city is made of gold.

It is conceivable how rich the Shandia people were at that time. I don’t know where they got their gold. Are there any gold mines on Gaya Island?

I don't think there is any. Given the current situation of Gaya Island, if there was gold, it would have been mined out long ago.

In the middle of the city, there is a huge bell tower with a golden bell hanging on it.

Under the bell tower, there is a historical text inlaid.

At this time, Diarmait was squatting in front of the main text of the history, reaching out and touching the words on it.

At the bottom corner of the main historical text, there is a sentence that was obviously added later.

It says...

"I came here and guided this text to its final destination. —Pirate. Gol. D. Roger"

"Indeed, Roger has been here." Diarmait murmured softly.

Then, he looked at the historical text. He couldn't understand the ancient text, but he roughly knew that this historical text recorded information about Poseidon, the King of the Sea.

"The historical text that records ancient weapons cannot be left here any longer. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens and it is discovered by some ambitious person, it will cause chaos." Diarmuid said with a smile.

This guy Shiqi must have been to Sky Island many times before.

After all, his abilities are there, and he even has Sky Island's specialty shells in his hands.

However, there are quite a few sky islands, and he probably hasn't visited all of them, otherwise it wouldn't be Enel's turn to get the Thunder Fruit.

Given his ambition to build a large fleet and dominate the world, he probably wouldn't leave the wealth of the Land of Gold behind if he discovered it.

Therefore, it is estimated that Shiki has never been to the two most important sky islands, Bica and Golden Land.

Later, the Straw Hat Pirates will come up and learn the secret of Poseidon, the Sea King.

Now it seems that it is no longer necessary.

Turning his head to look not far away, he saw that guy Gion had eaten the Thunder Fruit and was releasing electricity indiscriminately in the distant Golden City.

It will probably take some time before I can control my abilities.

"The swordsman who obtained the power of the Thunder Fruit, Uchiha Gion? Hahahaha." Diarmuid complained with a smile.

Then, he said to the naval lieutenant beside him, who was stunned by the countless gold, "Get a few people to unload this historical text and load it onto the ship separately."

"Yes, Your Excellency the Vice Admiral!" the naval lieutenant commander finally came to his senses and said.

After a brief pause, he asked again, "Lieutenant General, this Land of Gold...what should we do? One warship obviously can't hold it all."

"Don't pretend, I'll just take this entire island away." Diarmuid patted the long silk scarf around his waist and said with a smile.

The lieutenant commander's eyes lit up and he said, "I see."

Yes, the Lieutenant General is the user of the Gravity Fruit. With his powerful strength, he can easily take away the entire Golden Land.

Soon, the naval lieutenant led his men to dismantle this piece of historical text.

Diarmait ignored them and returned to the warship to rest.

Gion is still having fun, trying hard to master the power of his devil fruit.

Back in the cabin, Diarmait took out the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia and began to look for the patterns of the other two Devil Fruits.

He had been comparing them on the way to the Land of Gold, but due to the large variety of species, Diarmait had not been able to find the pattern before arriving.

He was searching and drinking tea at the same time, which was quite leisurely.

"Now that the Land of Gold is in our hands, G-7 no longer needs to worry about running out of money. Next, let's prepare to recruit soldiers..." Diarmait thought to himself.

There are currently two ways to recruit soldiers. One is to apply for recruitment directly from the headquarters.

This kind of conscription requires submitting a report. The headquarters will summarize the applications of all navy members within this year to come up with a specific number of conscriptions for the entire navy, and then start a global naval conscription in the second year.

After the conscription is completed, the newly recruited troops will be distributed according to the applications of each base.

The second method is for each base to recruit soldiers on its own. This requires the base to find the source of soldiers on its own. The headquarters will not care about you. How many soldiers you can recruit depends on your own ability.

But whether it is the first or the second one, it requires a lot of funds to support. For the first one, this department will check your military expenses to see if you have money to recruit soldiers.

The second option is that the headquarters will not care about you, you just need to take the money and go to recruit soldiers. If you have money, they will recruit more soldiers, and if you don’t have money, they will recruit fewer soldiers. If you have the ability to trick others into working for you for free, then you are also considered powerful.

Although it is the era of great pirates now, the navy's reputation is still very strong, and there is no problem with recruiting soldiers.

Many people hope to join the navy. After all, the navy’s treatment is famously good.

There are three member states of the World Government under the direct jurisdiction of G-7. Diarmuid is preparing to recruit 7 soldiers to increase the total strength of the entire G- to .

A country only needs to recruit more than 10,000 people.

It wasn't that stressful, as the necessary procedures were all mature, and he didn't need to be there in person. As long as he paid enough money, he could go back and arrange for his men to recruit soldiers.

"As the troops increase, we also need to organize training, with veterans training newcomers. This is also a common practice of the navy. There is nothing to improve, so I don't need to worry about it. The key is that we need to purchase a large number of warships, which also costs money. Fortunately, I have a lot of money now, hahahaha." Diarmait said with a smile as he flipped through the illustrations.

Today, the G-7 has twelve Navy Headquarters standard warships, as well as a large number of general ships and several small warships.

The headquarters' large warships are configured to carry a thousand people each, twelve ships plus these small boats, etc., no matter what kind of warship formation, it can probably meet the needs.

But once the total force reaches 50,000, it will require at least 60 giant warships from the headquarters to be considered adequately equipped.

After all, you have to keep some warships as a backup, right?

Nowadays, the price of the headquarters' warships is 200 million berries each. Diarmait will have to buy at least 50 huge warships, and there are also various other types of warships, which will cost tens of billions of berries.

Money is not a problem. The problem is whether our headquarters can equip him with so many ships in time?

"We still have to discuss with General Zhan Guo when we get back and give priority to supplying our G-7." Diarmuid touched his chin and said.

At this moment, he suddenly saw the pattern in the atlas, his eyes lit up and he said, "I found it."

After a careful comparison, it was one of the remaining two, but Diarmait was not happy because this devil fruit was really mediocre.

Animal series. Mama fruit.

A very ordinary devil fruit, nothing special at all.

As we all know, the animal-type devil fruits are famous for having a huge gap between the upper and lower limits. The upper limit can reach the mythical beast species, and the powerful mythical beast species are simply hard to describe in words.

Similar to Kaido's dragon, the big Buddha of the Warring States generals, etc.

Marco's Phoenix is ​​also pretty good.

In the middle level, there are ancient animal systems, with abilities such as dinosaurs, saber-toothed tigers, and mammoths, which can be considered strong enough.

But the lower limit is very ordinary, and the worst one should be considered the herbivorous type among ordinary species.

After all, among the ordinary species, carnivorous animal-type ability users are more aggressive.

As for herbivores, they feel like...trash fish.

Unless you are a flying species, then it is quite an advantage.

But this Mama Fruit is totally uninteresting. I guess no one would eat it if it were released.

Thinking about it carefully, this fruit should have drifted away from Bika and finally fell into the hands of Ganfor, the god of Angel Island.

It was eaten by the cheap bird under his command and turned into a Pegasus, which he could ride and fly around in the sky, looking extremely cool and stylish.

It sounds pretty impressive, but think about the appearance of that horse... it's so ugly. Even if you give it to Diarmait, he probably won't ride it.

Diarmait shook the devil fruit in his hand and sighed, "You are useless. Go back and ask if anyone wants to eat it. If not, hand it over to the headquarters. It is useless garbage." After saying that, Diarmait prepared to put it away.

But at this moment, he paused and frowned slightly.

"No, the reason why Ganfor's Pegasus is so ugly is because his bird is ugly to begin with. ... If we find a more handsome bird, tame it, and then let it eat this devil fruit, will there be any new changes?" Diarmait murmured softly.

If I find a giant eagle, tame it, and then let it eat the Mama fruit, will it turn into a griffin?

That would be pretty cool. Although you don’t need that thing to fly, it’s okay to ride it to show off.

Later, Kuzan will ride a bicycle on the sea, and I will ride a griffin on his head, just to poop...

It’s quite interesting to think about it?

"No, we should find an animal type. The Lion-Lion Fruit... not the Horse-Horse Fruit. If you think about it carefully, this idea should be very good, but this horse is not worthy at all and is a waste." Diarmuid muttered again.

Then he raised his hand and threw the devil fruit onto the table.

Forget it.

After that, he searched for a while and compared all the devil fruit illustrations in his hand, but still couldn't find out what the last devil fruit was.

It seems that there is no record of this in the picture book held by the navy.
