Pirates: I’m afraid the world isn’t violent enough!

Orbia, on the other hand, officially became the leader of the scholar group after Dr. Clover took a back seat, and thus took over the rank of Major General from Dr. Clover.

If nothing else, this should be the highest level that a group of scholars can advance to in the naval system.

At least this is the case for scholars of Olbia's generation. Perhaps in a few decades, their group of scholars will grow old, and the new group of scholars who have truly grown up in the navy will be fully integrated into the navy. , became a trustworthy group.

At that time, the invisible shackles hanging over their heads will be lifted, right?

"I have already heard from Porusalino about the Devil Fruit in Sleepy Town. Thank you so much for going to help me personally." Altorun said with a smile.

"I wanted to find an opportunity to repay your kindness to me, so I should be the one thanking you." Olbia said with a very serious expression.

Looking at this expression, Oltorun knew very clearly that what Olbia was talking about was not exactly what happened to O'Hara back then. It was also because Robin had been raised by his side like a daughter for so many years. Taking care of.

Speaking of which, Porosalino had brought Robin to Punk Hasadri to live for a while.

Several people were chatting while walking towards the Punk Hassad scientific research base.

After a while, Oltorun saw Dr. Vegapunk with a big head walking towards this direction. As soon as he saw Oltorun, he said happily: "I also said to go to the port. I'm here to welcome you, but one of the experiments ran out of time, I'm sorry."

"It's enough for Dr. Porusalino to take care of me, why should I trouble you?" Ortorun laughed and started joking with Vegapunk.

Porusalino's face twitched on the side, wishing he could kill this bitch Ortolen with a laser.

"Last time Lieutenant General Gion returned to headquarters, he took some medicine from me that had a suppressive effect on your manic mental state. Did you have the opportunity to try it later?" Dr. Vegapunk asked curiously.

"I did try it once, and it was very effective. As soon as it was injected into my body, I could regain my clarity in a few seconds. Thank you very much, Doctor, for your care." Ortorun thanked him.

"As long as it works." Dr. Vegapunk nodded first, and then warned: "But I still recommend that you try not to use it..."

"I understand. In fact, I have basically been able to control this mania now. It may take another year or two at most before I can be completely cured." Ortorun said with a smile.

"That's good, that's good..." Dr. Begapunk nodded happily at first, and then said: "Speaking of which, I didn't draw some blood from you last time. Within the scope of your permission, Was research conducted?”

"Speaking of this, Teacher Zefa has told me many times that when I have the opportunity to see you, I can thank you. His asthma has indeed improved a lot." After hearing this, Oltorun He said it happily.

Dr. Vegapunk had a few words with Ortorun about Zefa, and then said: "I said at the time that this blood sample would be used in biomedical and other fields in the future, but recently I Research in this area has also been affected to some extent. The serum medicine produced from the blood in your body has the ability to treat trauma... and then... But all the experimental subjects who were tested were more or less crazy. Since You are confident that you will be able to cure your previous illness on your own within one or two years, so I hope you can provide me with a blood sample after you are completely fine, okay?"

"Of course it's no problem." Ortorun nodded, and then said: "We are good friends, doctor!"

"Hahaha, thank you very much." Dr. Vegapunk was very happy after receiving Altoron's affirmative reply, and then he was going to take Altoron to visit some of the novel technologies he had recently developed. .

Ortorun is also very interested in Dr. Vegapunk's various technologies.

He has always believed that the world government is obsessed with forcing Vegapunk's genius scientific research capabilities to develop in the military field, and it is very stupid to turn a blind eye to other aspects of technology.

Many of the technologies developed by Vegapunk have great prospects, especially the island clouds and sea clouds that simulate empty islands, which can be used in Qinghai. In other words, these two materials can even be used at any time. As a basis, we will develop a risk-free "highway" from Qinghai to Sky Island.

This will directly break the thousands of years of separation between the sky island and the sea world, bring about the integration of culture, materials, specialties and other aspects, and can generate huge economic and political benefits.

There are also island-wide climate air conditioners, artificial organs, automatic cooking machines, holographic projections, artificial creatures, etc. If these technologies can be used, it will be a steady stream of economic resources!

Chapter 309 Borsalino: You are here to purchase goods from Punk Hazard, right?

Punk Hassad's technology exhibition area.

Dr. Vegapunk was telling Ortorun about the novel objects in a display cabinet in front of him. Porusalino and Olbia were accompanying him. It seemed that they were very free today.

"How about it? Observe first. Can you see any flaws?" Dr. Begapunk said happily.

Oltorun walked around the display cabinet several times, staring at the display inside. It was a bird that looked alive and flying around in the display cabinet!

But the bird itself is illusory, displayed by holographic projection.

But Ortorun didn't find any flaws, which shows how powerful this technology is!

"There is also a light pressure glove here. After wearing this glove, light is no longer only perceived through vision. We can touch the scene created by the holographic projection as if we are touching the entity." Bega Dr. Punk said as he handed Altoron a pair of gloves.

After Ortorun put on the gloves, Olbia opened the display cabinet, and he reached out to touch the bird, and he could indeed feel the touch like a living thing!

"What a magical technology!" Oltorun's eyes sparkled, and then he looked at Porusalino and said, "Are there any special control regulations for these technologies?"

Porusalino was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "There doesn't seem to be any special restrictions, but military technology is more troublesome. All military technologies in Punk Hassad, especially those classified as first-level secrets, must pass It can only be used with the confirmation signature of the marshal and the commander-in-chief of the army, and with the authorization of the Five Old Stars. There are no restrictions on other holographic projections like this one..."

"There are no restrictions, which means I can use it, right?" Altoron asked excitedly.

"As a naval admiral, although you have no jurisdiction over our scientific force, it is certainly possible to use some uncontrolled technologies." Porusalino said without hesitation.

This is the authority of the Admiral of the Navy. If Ortorun is a Lieutenant General, then he cannot use the scientific forces at will. After all, although the Vice Admirals are also high-level figures, there are too many of them, and in terms of power and status , they are at the same level as the scientific troops at most.

The general, on the other hand, has undergone earth-shaking changes and is the absolute top brass in the navy!

"Okay, okay, doctor, if you don't mind, I hope to promote this technology. I wonder if you know that our world government is currently preparing a neutral zone plan called 'Golden City'. This plan, It is to prepare to unite various forces to create the most high-end one in the entire sea area..." Altorun quickly told Dr. Vegapunk about this matter.

"As for holographic projection, I think it can be used as a sign and a unique feature in the Golden City. It will receive wealthy businessmen and political figures from all over the world. It is also suitable as a starting point for holographic projection technology. This technology Once it is well received in the Golden City, maybe it can be promoted and enter thousands of households!" Ortorun said.

As a scientific research leader, Dr. Vegapunk certainly hopes that the technologies he has developed can benefit the whole world.

It's just that he is trapped in the scientific army. Although the world's government has a lot of authority open to him, he really can't do things like pulling out the technology and promoting it!

When he heard that Ortorun had connections and channels, he was of course overjoyed and hit it off with the general!

At this time, Ortorun finally realized the benefits of being a naval admiral again. He could spend the money of the world government to do his own things and obtain technology and welfare for himself reasonably and legally. If he became a pirate, Can a kind of bastard like me enjoy such preferential treatment and benefits?

After watching the holographic projection, Ortorun focused on observing two new materials, Island Cloud and Sea Cloud.

"Lightweight, easy to manufacture and low cost are the great advantages of this material. I am thinking that if this material is used in new buildings, it may bring a new revolution to the construction industry. According to the current situation With the technology and building materials, the higher the floor is built, the more difficult it will be and the risk will increase accordingly. However, if this material is used to build a building, although I have not conducted actual experiments, in theory, it will Breaking the limits of existing architecture..." Dr. Begapunk introduced.

Ortorun took notes seriously on the sidelines. Indeed, he only thought that this material could be used to connect air islands, but he did not expect that if this material was used in construction or even manufacturing, it would bring How big an innovation?

Breakthroughs in material technology often cause changes in the entire industry!

"Originally I had an idea to use this frivolous island cloud to combine it with warship manufacturing technology to break through the sailing speed limit of existing warships. At the same time, perhaps with appropriate external modifications, warships can fly at low altitudes Suspension navigation...but before I could explore this aspect, I was restricted by financial constraints and could not continue." Dr. Vegapunk said with some regret.

"Good idea, very good idea. Maybe the next generation of new warships should develop in this direction. I also want this technology. It just so happens that I have a world-class shipbuilding master in my hands. When the time comes, I will give him this technology. , let him help you realize this idea, Doctor!" Altorun wrote down this idea in his notebook and said enthusiastically.

The speed of the navy's current warships can be said to be the limit of ships of the same size. The performance is very superior, but it still has limitations. That is, its speed can only be regarded as the best among large warships, while conventional pirate ships, They are often ordinary three-masted sailing ships, or even smaller, so they are faster.

Therefore, when pursuing battles in the sea, most of them are pursued by multiple warships in an encirclement manner.

And if the materials of the warship change, and combined with this lightweight Shimagumo, reducing the weight to the extreme, the speed will definitely break through the limit.

Ortorun feels that this may be the direction of innovation for the next generation of naval warships!

Anyway, he now has a mature shipyard and is also producing warships independently, so why not give it a try, maybe it can increase the combat effectiveness of the New World Navy?

Then, Ortorun came to a special open square. This square was completely connected to the outside world and was open. But at this time, Punk Hassad was in spring, but here, it was like late autumn. Plants, temperature, etc. can all be intuitively perceived to be different from the outside world.

"This square is controlled by a device called 'climate air conditioning'. It can completely control the climate, temperature, humidity and other aspects of the entire square according to our independent adjustments, achieving full simulation!" said Dr. Bega Punk. At this point, his expression is also somewhat emotional.

After a pause, he continued: "My hometown is an island covered with ice and snow. Due to the harsh natural environment, the country cannot break through the limitations of development. When I was young, there was a climate adjustment similar to this. Imagine that a huge geothermal system was built there, but due to financial problems, this problem was never completely solved...Now, I have finally perfected this technology."

"How big can its coverage be?" Altorun asked curiously.

"This is a technology composed of multiple devices. The size of the coverage area depends on the number of devices. Theoretically speaking, if it is installed across the entire island, this technology can completely cover an island. If it is installed across the entire sea area, it can cover the entire sea area. If it is installed across the world...you know what I mean?" Dr. Vegapunk raised his eyebrows and said proudly.

After hearing this, Ortolan was filled with admiration. Although the whole ocean and the whole world sounded a bit delusional, theoretically speaking, this technology could indeed make the world's climate controllable!

What does this mean?

In the original story, the Egghead Island in the New World was covered by such a device. The climate of the entire island was controllable, with four seasons like spring, making it suitable for living.

If this technology is really popularized in the New World, then the current extreme climate phenomena in the New World will most likely become history, and the entire New World may become the most docile sea area!

Just tell me how outrageous it is!

But it is obvious that, normally, no one would spend unimaginable amounts of money to transform the entire new world. That would be a serious mistake!

"If an island the size of Punk Hazard wants to be fully equipped with this technology, how much money would it cost?" Ortolen asked.

"More than 200 billion Baileys." Dr. Vegapunk gave the answer immediately. It was obvious that he had thought about it a long time ago.

Ortolen was stunned for a moment. More than 200 billion?

"Give me a copy of this technology. I want to install it in the Golden City and let those local tycoons have a feel for it. Forget about transforming the entire island. They will be qualified to transform their own manors or something. Then they will rush to place orders with me!" Ortolen wrote with a big stroke of his pen in the notebook.

Afterwards, Dr. Vegapunk took Ortolen to see his artificial creatures... Ortolen was amazed because this guy created a giant dragon!

That’s right, it’s the dragon that was beheaded by Sauron in the original story!

Seeing that Ortolen seemed very interested in this, Dr. Vegapunk briefly explained the concept of this technology to him.

But his so-called simple explanation was like listening to a foreign language to Ortolen, he could not understand it at all, he could only roughly understand a few points, then Ortolen concluded that the use of this thing might be considered in the area of ​​'grain reserves'.

There is no need to create artificial dragons, but large-scale artificial breeding of cattle and sheep is still possible.

With the idea that it wouldn't cost any money anyway, Ortolen asked Borsalino to prepare the information about the technology for him to take away when the time came.

The development of the Calm Belt itself involves the consideration of entering the grain industry. No, to be precise, Ortolen is now relying on the Calm Belt's very stable climate all year round and the stable input of agricultural tools to produce and grow grain on a large scale for sale.

Nowadays, if this technology can be applied, even the meat industry can be entered!

"The world government is such a fucking waste. There's no point in having so many robots. Wouldn't it be better to cash in on these technologies?" Ortolan complained in his mind while taking notes.

Short-sighted, too short-sighted!

Or in other words, the world's government itself does not intend to use science and technology to create a better world like Dr. Vegapunk does.

They only think of using violence to suppress and prolong their rule.

Borsalino, who was standing by, saw Ortolen asking for this and that, and finally couldn't help but said, "Hey, you came to Punk Hazard to buy goods, right?"

"Dr. Borsalino, I am an admiral of the navy. You should be careful with your words and respect your superiors! This is called putting technology into practice. It is a favorable policy for military-to-civilian transition. Do you understand?" Ortolen patted Borsalino on the shoulder and teased.

Chapter 310 Only as a general can you understand how terrifying the navy’s huge military expenditures are!

After that, Ortorun followed Dr. Vegapunk to visit many novel technologies. He packed up the technologies that he felt were necessary to promote and took them away when he was ready to leave.

Dr. Vegapunk is very happy about this. When he studies these technologies, he thinks that these technologies can be applied in practice.

As for Dr. Porusalino, although he said he disliked Ortorun's purchase behavior, he still followed Ortorun's wishes.

No way, who called Ortorun an admiral?

After visiting all those strange technologies, the sky outside gradually turned dark.

Ortorun didn't want to leave in a hurry. Under Porusalino's arrangement, everyone had dinner together and found him a room to rest.

Sitting on the sofa in the house, Ortorun dialed the phone number, then put it on the table, holding the notebook he had summarized before and reading it.

After a while, the phone was picked up, and Tezzolo asked with some confusion: "General?"

"Oh, Tezzolo, I'm sorry for disturbing your rest so late." Ortorun said with a smile.

"No, I haven't gotten off work yet." Tezzolo also smiled.

"Are you still working overtime so late?" Oltorun was a little surprised.

"It's not often, it's just that I've been a little busy these two days..." Tezzolo explained first, and then asked: "General, do you have any orders?"

"Well, regarding the design of the Golden City, I think some changes need to be made. I found a lot of new technologies that can be applied here in Punk Hassad. I originally wanted to go back and tell you in detail, but I was worried that you would directly Construction has started, so I'll tell you a little bit first..." Ortorun pondered the notebook in his hand and responded.

"Yes, please say it." Tezzolo responded immediately.

"First of all, it is a new type of material that can be used in the construction industry. Although the building in the original design is also very unique, I think the use of these materials can better show..." Ortorun quickly Tell Tezolo what you think.

These include the use of materials such as island clouds and sea clouds, the design of holographic projections, and the arrangement of climate air conditioning.

Ortorun spoke for a long time, and Tezzolo also interrupted from time to time to ask about the specific situation.

By the time Ortorun finished speaking, the moonlight had filled the sea.

"In this way, it can be said that our Golden City will become the most unique entertainment city on the sea. It combines the culture and characteristics of the sky, the deep sea and the sea, as well as the addition of future technology. I am afraid it will be better than we imagined. , can create more profits, and those technologies, do you plan to use the Golden City platform to promote them and then sell them?" Tezzolo asked excitedly.

"Yes, that's what I think about it." Ortorun said.

"It seems that after the Golden City project is launched, our revenue will soar..." Tezzolo sighed with emotion at first, and then said: "By the way, general, the revenue statistics for the first half of the year have been released. In the first half of this year alone, our fiscal surplus has reached 724.6 billion beli. Combined with the Golden City plan in the second half of the year, the expenditure of other plans, and the revenue in the second half of the year, this year A rough estimate is that at least the financial surplus can reach more than 1.8 trillion beli!" Tezzolo suddenly thought of something and reported to Ortorenhui.

"One hundred and eighty billion Baileys!?" Altoron was pleasantly surprised when he heard this number.

This means that the huge organizational structure under his command has begun to continuously create huge wealth while completing its own operation!

And these wealth will continue to be transformed into the strength of the New World Navy in the following time!

"Yes, but there is still an important expenditure that has not been included in the calculation, and that is the coast guard force established by Dressrosa. So far, Mr. Doflamingo has not contacted us about the specific finances. , so I only estimated the scale of expenditure of the Coast Guard, and did not include this expenditure in the surplus finance. When they connect with us, the surplus level will be reduced," Tezzolo said again.

After a brief pause, he continued: "Furthermore, the design changes of the Golden City we just talked about should also have hundreds of billions of new expenditures. If these are taken into account, this year's surplus may not be What I just said was so optimistic.”

"It doesn't matter. The money you earn is meant to be spent." Ortorun didn't think there was anything wrong.

At the same time, he seemed to have thought of something, and the excitement just now gradually dissipated.

A surplus of 1,800 billion beli sounds impressive, but it is still not enough for Altorun's ambitions and goals.

Only by building a financial core with the Golden City and further enhancing wealth creativity can his pressure be relieved.
