Pirates are born to be king

One week later, Drum Kingdom

"Your Majesty, this is what needs to be dealt with today. Please () read the most complete! The fastest updated novel!" After the breakfast meeting, everyone got busy. Jace still followed Valpo to the luxurious hotel with a stack of papers. Office space.

Valpo had never been to the lounge separated by a curtain since it was completed. The compactness of things made His Majesty the King's life only limited to work.

As a small business owner, he originally wondered why someone would die from overwork. Is it so difficult to squeeze out 10 hours of eating and rest in a day? Now he is just managing a kingdom with a population of nearly 51, and he is beginning to be asked to do so. I feel it deeply.

There are no computers here that can help people handle repetitive and simple tasks. Everything needs to be done manually. Inefficiency and error-prone have become a daily necessity.

If it weren't for Jace's help in screening, just checking for omissions would be too much for him.

Not to mention that now, in addition to these, he also needs to set aside time to transform into a brick maker and an excavator to truly "add bricks and tiles" to his kingdom.

Fortunately, with the improvement of his ability, the 'production volume' in one day can now be as much as that of 3 to 5 days in the past. In this way, he will be able to get some rest in a short time.

His Majesty the King pinched his eyebrows. Chromamon's political affairs team was almost finished combing. The affairs officer's afro began to grow vigorously again, and the dark circles under his eyes had also faded a lot. He was still a little unsteady when walking, although he didn't know what it was. The reason is, I believe that with a top-notch medical team, his body will eventually recover to its original state. Maybe...then we can give him more burdens?

While he was thinking this, he took the items from the chief of staff and asked casually, "What are the main things?"

"In addition to some grant applications, related building approvals, and further diversion of slave camps, there are issues regarding the distribution of newly discovered alloys, and the 500-man team that will be sent to Whiskey Peak need to be confirmed."

"Is it alloy? The purple kind?"

"Yes, Your Majesty," Jace asked.

"Let's follow the old way and divide them uniformly."

After several days of unremitting efforts, a certain amount of purple alloy was finally obtained. The preliminary alloy parameters had already been tested, but there was no progress in further studying the special features of the alloy.

As a last resort, everyone remembered the method of discovering Haiying in the first place and prepared to let every department try it.

"That's right." Valpo tapped the table, leaving no mark anymore. He had already initially controlled the huge power. "This alloy may be more precious than the sea shadow. After all, it has only been found on the top of the mountain so far. Every 50 piles It takes a rock brick to extract one piece, and we don’t know the true storage capacity yet, so remember to have someone record it.”

He paused again, "The weight of each piece of metal must be accurate to milligrams. If it is consumed during the experiment, there must be a note."

"As you command, Your Majesty." Jace found that he now had less and less to add, and most of the time he became a full-time secretary who organized and conveyed the king's orders.

This made him feel happy and a little disappointed at the same time.

"So about the 500-man team sent to Whiskey Peak..."

"I almost forgot, there are them." There are too many things to deal with, and this plan was an idea he came up with when he went to the World Conference and was inspired by Kobra on the ship. Now, nearly half a year later, if it weren't for Jay When Si mentioned it, Valpo almost forgot, "What's wrong? Can we leave directly?"

Jess shook his head, "Not yet, Your Majesty, training and running in a unit is not that fast. They have just completed regular training, intensive close combat and cold weapon training, and are now about to start firearms training."

"A gun? Did you encounter any difficulties?"

"Yes, our country's thermal weapons are still products of the first generation. If they are only used domestically, it doesn't matter. But if you want to try to expand externally..."

Jace didn't say anything further.

A little behind.

Valpo understood what he meant. The generation gap in firearms products was almost fatal.

Range, rate of fire, accuracy, their improvements are enough to allow two originally identical troops to produce completely different results.

The accuracy can be artificially corrected, but the rate of fire and range cannot be improved by blood and perseverance alone.

Those at the top of the One Piece world have extremely strong combat power, so powerful that they can ignore firearms.

But if you look carefully, you will find that guns and cannons are indispensable in every battle scene, and even the people at the top are indispensable, including Usopp and his son, the black-bearded Van Oka, and the red-haired subordinate Lackey. , and Vice Captain Ben Beckman, even Shichibu Kaiten Yasha, Doflamingo's underground trade of guns and cannons, is also a part that cannot be ignored, and the mountains and seas of soldiers in the navy are proving its importance.

As the Kingdom of the Drum, which is the first half of the Great Line, there are very few people with abilities and almost no domineering power. In this case, firearms are enough to play a decisive role.

What he wanted to do was to occupy Whiskey Peak, and at the very least, have a piece of territory, but he didn't want soldiers loyal to him to pave the bloody road with their lives.

There were not many people in the Drum Kingdom, so these 500 soldiers might just be an insignificant 'test' for the big country.

But for his kingdom, it is not an exaggeration to say that these 500 elites are the "power of the whole country".

As long as possible, Valpo naturally wants to give them the best.

"So, is there a way to get the latest one?"

"Yes, but it must be done through special means, the price will be much higher, and the time will not be short." Jace lowered his head.

"Tsk...it's Bailey again." Valpo now has a headache when he hears Bailey. There are thousands of ways to use Bailey, and the possible ways to earn Bailey are still the same. He doesn't even want to know about them. How many Baileys are needed for the guns, because if the weapons and equipment really need to be updated, in addition to these 500 people, the kingdom will also be updated sooner or later. He is afraid that after Jace tells it, he will not be able to help but feel pain, and then he will be forced to cut down the magnetic field. Food expenses at Drum Castle.How pitiful it is... As a king, he now only has the enjoyment of eating. If even this part is used to subsidize the kingdom, although it is right, what kind of life does he have?Should you wait until you are greedy and then let the naughty child feed him pebbles? !

"It's impossible to buy it. Tell me, is there any other way?" His Majesty the King vaguely felt that Jace had a solution.

The chief of staff still lowered his head, "Maybe, I mean maybe... you can refer to what you do when you buy a slave."

Buy slaves.

How did he buy the slaves in the first place?

At that time, instead of using Bailey, they directly relied on the brewed wine group 'Life' to obtain a group of high-quality slaves for free.

so……

……

After a brief silence, Valpo's calm voice sounded in the room, "I mean Jace."

"The minister is here."

"Have you been waiting for me here..."

"No." Although the Chief of Staff said this, His Majesty the King always felt that the other person's lowered face was full of a successful smile, "This is our kingdom, waiting for you."

"Hmph, that's nice to say, Jace..."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"You've turned bad."

"I dare not."

"Humph!"
