Pola and Michita followed Al to the rainy lands north of Yorba, not far from the source of the Santara River.

Rainland, this city carefully managed by Crocodile, is undoubtedly the most dazzling pearl in the Kingdom of Alabasta, and its prosperity is breathtaking.

With the enthusiastic guidance of passers-by, Al, Pola and Michita soon found the wax art gallery run by Gardino.

Although the shop is named "Art Gallery", in fact, the shop only displays a wax figure of Giardino himself.

At this time, Gardino was sitting leisurely in the art gallery drinking tea.

As a famous den of gilded wealth and tourist city, Yudi attracts countless tourists to visit and shop.

The lifelike wax figures made by Gardino have naturally become hot-selling products locally.

As his business continued to expand, he handed over the task of daily customer reception to carefully selected female receptionists. He only needed to use his ability to create wax figures according to the customer's requirements, and then have a professional painter at the side color the wax figures to make them more vivid and lifelike.

Al took Pola and Michita, ignored the receptionist's surprised look, and walked straight to Gardino.

Their sudden arrival was like a gust of cold wind, causing Gardino, who was leisurely drinking tea, to shiver.

His hands trembled slightly, and the hot tea in the cup almost spilled out.

Recalling the Battle of Marineford, he witnessed Al's ruthless killing of members of the Whitebeard Pirates near the execution platform.

Seeing that Pola and Michita were standing obediently behind El at this moment, Gardino did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.

"Welcome to our shop, Mr. Shichibukai. Would you like to order a custom wax figure?" Gardino quickly stood up, a flattering smile on his face, trying to please the powerful pirate with words.

However, Al's answer extinguished his hope like cold water: "Mr. 3, I came to you today not for the wax figure. Come with me, and from today on, you will work for me."

This sentence was like a sharp blade, instantly dropping Gardino's mood from the clouds to the bottom of the valley.

Gardino's face turned dim in an instant. Although he was unwilling in his heart, under the pressure of Al's unquestionable aura, he could only force out a bitter smile to try to ease the tense atmosphere.

"Lord Ai'er, my strength is so low that I am afraid I will become a burden to you."

He tried to belittle himself in the hope of shaking Al's resolve and making him give up the idea of recruiting him.

El nodded gently, with a faint smile on his face, "You're right, it seems that you really don't have any strength." At this point, he paused, "However, your wax-wax fruit is somewhat useful to me. Otherwise, I will kill you and find someone useful to inherit the power of the fruit?"

Hearing this, Gardino felt a chill rising from his spine, and his face instantly turned ashen. On the brink of life and death, he hurriedly said: "Lord Ai'er, I am very useful! Please believe me, I will do my best to serve you."

Al nodded with satisfaction, a glimmer of appreciation in his eyes: "Very good, I hope you can remember what you said today. Take your things and follow me."

Faced with the threat to his life, Gardino's voice trembled slightly, revealing his inner fear and anxiety.

"Yes...Yes, Master El."

While telling the clerk to close the shop, he secretly congratulated himself on having escaped the scythe of death.

The recruitment of the original Baroque Studio members went very smoothly, and Al returned to the Santa Dora River Camp with Pola, Mitchita and Gardino.

The scene before them shocked Gardino and the others so much that they were speechless.

They have lived on the land of Alabasta for many years, and the vastness of the desert has always been the most familiar sight to them.

However, at this moment, the scene before my eyes is miraculously filled with lush green plants, full of vitality, like a miracle of nature.

However, when the three looked closely, they were surprised to find that under the vegetation-covered land was not the sand they were familiar with, but had completely transformed into fertile soil.

The three of them looked at each other, all filled with surprise and confusion, recalling the news that came from the royal capital not long ago, that the new Minister of Environment wanted to change the desert land.

Witnessing that green ocean of life with my own eyes, it seemed very different from what was originally reported in the news.

Just changing the land is already incredible, not to mention the lush plants in front of us, which don't look like they can be grown overnight.

This made them, who had witnessed this fact with their own eyes, even more in awe of Al.

Al frowned and looked carefully at the river bank on this side.

Based on his assessment and observation of Kosa's capabilities, the results of transforming the swamp should not reach such a large area.

However, when he saw that Kosa did not look overly tired, his doubts were slightly alleviated.

As long as Kosa can follow his own advice and not overuse the power of the devil fruit and overdraw his body, it will be enough.

After all, it would undoubtedly be a good thing for the people of Alabasta to have fertile land one day earlier.

At the same time, Al was also paying attention to Huangmu's movements. Seeing him standing not far away with a normal expression, he felt a little relieved.

He knew that Aramaki was the kind of person who would do his utmost to protect the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, so he always remained wary of him.

The reason I left on purpose today was actually to test whether Huang Mu would do anything without authorization when I was not here.

It now appears that the land development plan has not been affected and the progress has even exceeded his expectations.

"Kousha, remember to take care of your body. Don't be too impatient and let your body become overly tired." Al reminded him again, making sure that the other party understood what he meant.

Then, he left Michita here to assist, and took Pola and Gardino to the royal capital to hand them over to Vivi.

Chapter 140 Everything is in order (Please recommend and collect)

At midnight, when the stars dotted the night sky, they finally arrived at the brightly lit Aruba.

Unlike the tranquility of the past, every corner of the city is flashing with festive lights, and residents are laughing and chatting in the streets and alleys, celebrating the new changes on this land with each other.

Al took Pola and Gardino and flew straight to the front of the palace. The palace looked particularly magnificent and solemn in the night.

He asked the guards to inform Ikalem and arrange for someone to properly arrange accommodation for Pola and Gardino.

"Ms. Pola," Al said gently, "I plan to have you reorganize the studio and let you lead it. If there is anything you can't solve, feel free to contact me."

He then turned his gaze to Galdino, "This will be your new stage and your chance to prove yourself. Do your job well and I will not treat you unfairly. If you try to escape, I will help the Wax-Wax Fruit find a new owner."

Bola assured Al, "Boss, don't worry. I guarantee he won't have any chance to play tricks on me."

"Then thank you for your help." After hesitating for a moment, he continued, "Miss Pola, I think you look pretty good when you walk normally. That slightly exaggerated pace with your hands on your hips may not be suitable for your temperament."

Hearing Al's words, Pola was slightly stunned, then smiled softly, nodded and said: "Thank you for your reminder, I will pay attention to it next time."

Gardino stood aside, feeling mixed emotions.

Looking at Miss Shuangzhizhi, who was also a member of the Baroque Studio, the treatment she received was completely different from mine.

At this moment, he could only accept the reality silently and wait for the unknown fate.

Not long after, Ikalem brought Weiwei to the palace gate to welcome Ai'er's return.

As an undercover agent who had been lurking in the Baroque Studio for two years, Ikalem recognized the two former chief conductors in front of him at a glance.

After listening to Al's arrangements for them, he personally sent Pola and Gardino to a royal property to settle down temporarily, and promised to arrange people to help Pola decorate the new store tomorrow.

Elze and Vivi walked into the palace together, ready to meet King Cobra.

On the way to the palace, El said to Weiwei: "Mr. 3's fruit ability is very useful, but I am worried that he will try to escape. Tomorrow, you arrange for him to make a life card so that we can keep track of his whereabouts at any time."

Weiwei looked at Al curiously: "Isn't his ability to make wax figures? Do you want to make a giant wax figure of yourself?"

Al smiled and shook his head, explaining, "I'm not interested in wax figures. I've asked Dr. Vegapunk to research a special material that will allow the wax he makes to no longer be afraid of flames. Then, we can build sturdy and beautiful houses for Kaya and her villagers."

He then told Vivi about Kaya's plan to move to Nami's Kokoasi Village with everyone in her village.

After hearing this, Weiwei immediately thought of the issue of paving roads on new land that she had discussed with her father today. She asked, "Al, can Mr. 3's ability be used to make roads? I heard that the wax he made is as hard as steel."

After thinking for a moment, Al replied, "In theory, it should be possible. As long as the wax's weakness of being afraid of heat is solved, he can make many useful things, including the power grid we are about to lay. His wax is also an excellent insulating material."

The two walked and talked, discussing the various potential uses of Mr. 3's abilities, and various applications emerged from their mouths.

These plans sound great, but for Gardino, they may be a tragic story.

Soon, they arrived at King Cobra's palace, and Al described his new plan in detail.

"I plan to expand the land on the Arubana side of the Sentora River, dig a lot of canals, divert river water to the vicinity of major cities, form lakes, and build a more livable urban environment. On the other side of the Sentora River, I plan to turn it into an industrial city, where all electrical equipment will be manufactured."

He further explained: "If industrial and living cities are mixed together, it will lead to the accumulation of industrial waste and a noisy environment, which will seriously affect everyone's living quality."

With Al's vivid explanation, King Cobra realized the far-reaching significance of this huge plan.

"You have a very long-term vision. I think making you the new king of Alabasta will be the best decision of my life." He said with emotion.

Faced with King Cobra's old talk, Al felt helpless.

He glanced at Weiwei, then cleverly shifted the topic to Mr. 3.

As Al and Vivi continued to talk about the various possible applications of Gardino's abilities, King Cobra also became very interested in this person.

"In that case," King Cobra said after thinking for a moment, "I will appoint him as the Minister of Infrastructure. When Dr. Vegapunk's research yields results, we will purchase and produce this material in large quantities and vigorously promote it throughout the country."

After discussing for a long time with the enlightened King Cobra, Al left the palace and flew again towards the pioneer camp on the banks of the Santa Dora River.

In order to ensure that the greening project in Alabasta can proceed steadily, he must always be at the forefront and be ready to respond to various emergencies at any time.

Soon, on the third day, Mariannu and his team arrived at the Santa Dora River camp with the giant mole.

El took out a map of Alabasta, on which was marked with a red pen the route for the canal discussed by King Cobra and his ministers.

"I hope you can lead everyone to start digging the canal according to this map. Michita can confirm whether there are any deviations in the route for you from the air."

Mariannu carefully looked at the drawings on the table and raised some questions about the specific operations.

Al didn't know much about these details, so he called Kosa, who was resting, to explain them in person.

As environment minister, Kosa has the final say on the canal plans and is aware of every detail.

After clearly understanding the requirements of the mission, Mariannu arranged for Dorophi to command the giant mole to carry out the excavation work, while Beb and Jem were responsible for dealing with the hard rocks blocking the way.

In the following days, Al kept running back and forth between the canal construction site and the pioneer camp.

Seeing the project progressing steadily according to the original plan, he felt a sense of accomplishment.

During this period, Al made a careful observation of Huangmu, the future general.

It can be clearly seen that Huangmu has put a lot of effort into the construction of this land.

When selecting plant species, each one is carefully chosen to ensure the diversity and functionality of the ecosystem and to establish a complete ecosystem for this new land.

After confirming that everything was going in an orderly manner and that there would be no problems in the short term, El finally felt relieved and prepared to leave Alabasta.

Weiwei has reminded him many times that the plan regarding Tianshangjin is imminent and he needs to take action as soon as possible.

At the same time, news came from Vegapunk that it was short of funds.

Chapter 141 Remarks on the launch

This book is finally available on the shelves.

First of all, I would like to thank the readers for watching, and thank the editor for signing my book.

Thank you!

Chapter 142 I Want It All

After returning to Arubasan, Al quickly found Vivi busy in the palace kitchen.

At this time, she was carefully preparing food for the journey under the guidance of Tilagotan.

A happy smile spread across her face, and her eyes brightened even more when she saw Al's figure appear at the door.

"Al, are we about to set off?" Weiwei's voice was filled with anticipation. "But you have to wait a moment. The food will be ready soon. We can take it with us and eat it on the road."

When I contacted her through Den Den Mushi last night, I confirmed that El would be back today and ready to leave. She came here early in the morning and carefully prepared a series of delicious food that was easy to carry.

Al sat quietly by the side, watching Weiwei's figure moving lightly in the kitchen.

Because he didn't use the white Den Den Mushi to prevent eavesdropping, he didn't tell Vivi about the new plan yesterday.

Soon after, an enticing aroma rose from the steamer. Weiwei gently opened the lid and put the steaming dim sum into the carefully prepared food boxes.

After packing, she took the food box and Al back to her room.

Inside the room, Weiwei took out a carefully crafted manual from the drawer. The paper recorded the specific shares of celestial gold that the member states of the World Government had paid to the Celestial Dragons over the years, which she had recently compiled.

"Captain, this is the result I recently compiled based on records from various countries."

When I opened the manual, what caught my eye was Weiwei's neat and beautiful handwriting.

What surprised him a little was that the gold in the sky was not entirely money. Many member states chose to pay tribute in the form of a mixture of various rare treasures and specialties.

After reading these records, Al closed the manual and then told Weiwei about something that he had not made clear last night.

"Weiwei, I think we should adjust our plans this time."

The original plan was to use the power of the El's Dark-Dark Fruit to suck the sky gold in the navy transport ship into the black hole, store it in a safe place, and then transport it all at once via the Orange Windmill.
