One Piece: Building the Roxas Empire

Chapter 145: The Founding of the Noxian Empire

Hearing this, Kurozumi Orochi's eyes suddenly lit up. Although he didn't know if he could take back Wano Country by doing this, he would try it anyway. He grinned and said, "Okay, hahaha! If Kozuki Oden knew the current situation of Wano Country, he would definitely not remain indifferent! By then, as long as Darius is driven away, Wano Country can be back in my hands."

Kurozumi Orochi's idea was very beautiful. As long as he contacted Kozuki Oden, he could drive Darius away and then take control of Wano Country again. Moreover, this time Darius destroyed all the main forces of Wano Country, and it would be easier for him to take control of Wano Country at that time.

However, Kaido does not think that things will go so smoothly, and he will not put all his eggs in one basket. He will not waste his troops to help Kurozumi Orochi to seize Wano Country. He only needs to tell Kozuki Oden the news, and then leave the rest to fate. If the Whitebeard Pirates really drive Darius out of Wano Country, then he can return to Wano Country at that time. If not, he will not suffer any loss.

Three days later, Darius executed all the warriors who had the intention to resist in the Flower Capital, killing more than a thousand people at one time. At the same time, Kozuki Sukiyaki also called on the people of Wano Country to give up the position of general of Wano Country and submit to Darius, announcing Darius as the new general of Wano Country.

The people and warriors of Wano Country have witnessed Darius's power, and fear has penetrated deep into their hearts. Even though they are dissatisfied, they dare not resist.

After Darius served as the general of Wano Country for a month, he arranged the members of the Noxian Pirates to various positions in Wano Country. At the same time, after eliminating the remaining resistance forces in Wano Country as quickly as possible, he announced the establishment of the Noxian Empire.

After the establishment of the Noxian Empire, Darius became the emperor of the Noxian Empire, and the original township was renamed a state, and Ghost Island was renamed Licheng.

Tolitoma was named the Queen of the Noxian Empire and Liuli was named the head maid.

Ashen was the first Prime Minister of the Noxian Empire, Crow was the Deputy Prime Minister, and Tiberus was the guardian beast of the country.

Blue Crystal is the governor of Flower City, Black Wuchang is the governor of Ximei State, White Wuchang is the governor of Baiwu State, Red Chain Snake is the governor of Rabbit Bowl State, Jade is the governor of Linghou State, Mad Dragon is the governor of Jiuli State, and Philip is the governor of Licheng.

At the same time, Darius also formed a king's guard, with Violent Qiang as the captain of the king's guard.

After the establishment of the Noxus Empire, Darius' first request was to build factories, mines and pharmaceutical factories. In the original work, there were a large amount of seastone ore in Wano Country. After investigation, the Noxus Pirates discovered that all these seastone ore were in the Rabbit Bowl area, so Red Chain Snake immediately opened a quarry in Rabbit Bowl.

At the same time, Darius is also preparing to follow the route of Kaido in the original work, but he will not be as brutal as Kaido. The factory still needs to be built, but the location is chosen on Onigashima. Philip will contact the underground dark emperors and find a way to purchase the equipment of the weapons factory.

Then there are medicines. What are the fastest ways to make money in the world? Arms and drugs. Darius doesn't know how to make drugs, but in the Noxus Pirates, there is a scientist named Caesar Clown who really knows how to make them, so Darius gave this task to him.

Of course, land is not only used to grow medicine, but also to grow some food.

This was a plan Darius had come up with a long time ago. Even as a pirate, he couldn't always make a living by robbing and burning.

The Four Emperors, Kaido and BIG MOM in the original work all have their own industries. After Darius conquered Wano Country, he naturally wanted to develop some industries to make money. Only after he had money, weapons and people, could he continue to expand outward.

There are only a few types of industries that pirates develop, either heavy industry selling arms, or opening casinos and brothels selling drugs. They will do whatever can make money quickly.

After all, the trafficking of arms and drugs is strictly prohibited by the World Government. As long as you do it, you will make money. Secondly, brothels and casinos, although not prohibited, are also gray industries with huge profits. As a pirate, Darius naturally has to do this business.

At the same time, the Noxian Empire abolished many laws of the former Wano Country with thundering means, especially the unique bun of the Wano Country. In the Noxian Empire, no one was allowed to have the bun of the former Wano Country, otherwise they would either keep their head or their hair, or keep their hair or their head.

The remaining samurai troops were also incorporated into the Noxian Empire. At the same time, the most stringent sword ban was issued in Wano Country. All the sword techniques and sword manuals of the samurai families in Wano Country were confiscated and handed over to the Noxian Empire. The Noxian Empire also started a conscription campaign.

In January 1495 of the Haiyuan calendar, the Noxus Empire had been established for half a year. After half a year of development, the prototype of the Noxus Empire finally took shape. Factories and pharmaceutical factories were finally established. Now they can mass-produce and process seastone. At the same time, the pharmaceutical factories also produce a large amount of natural and synthetic drugs, which can be easily sold through underground emperors.

The most important thing is the arsenal. Now, on average, thousands of rifles, hundreds of cannons, and hundreds of thousands of bullets and shells can be produced every month. Moreover, after half a year, the military strength of the Noxian Empire has reached 40,000, and the Noxian Empire has been completely integrated.

The predecessor of the Noxian Empire, namely Wano Country, is called a country, but in fact it is somewhat similar to the feudal system of the Zhou Dynasty. The shogun is only the nominal ruler of Wano Country. The daimyo has absolute power within his own territory, his own army, his own staff and officials, etc.

But after the establishment of the Noxian Empire, these were forcibly integrated together.

On this day, Tolitoma found Darius and said that he wanted to go back to Amazon Lily.

"You want to go back?" Darius looked at Tolitoma with some surprise and at her slightly bulging belly. Since the establishment of the Noxian Empire, Darius was also preparing to have a child, so he no longer let his women take birth control pills.

Now Tolitoma, Alanya, Liuli, Red Chain Snake, and Blue Crystal are all pregnant.

"Yeah." Toli Toma nodded gently and said seriously: "It has been almost a year since I left Amazon Lily this time. I have to go back. Don't worry!"

It was difficult for Darius to stop him. After all, Toli Toma was also the emperor of Amazon Lily, and the population of Amazon Lily seemed to be several hundred thousand, but all of them were women. Darius said, "Toli Toma, now we are both emperors, and you are still my queen. The Noxus Pirates are already allies with the Nine Snakes Pirates. Have you ever thought about making the Noxus Empire and Amazon Lily allies as well?"

Toli Toma was a little surprised to hear this, but now that she was pregnant with Darius's child, even though she was a little unhappy with Darius at first, after getting along with him for more than half a year, Toli Toma had already accepted her fate and agreed, "Sure! After all, the Noxus Empire is superior to the Amazon Lily in terms of population and military strength."

Darius hugged Tolitoma and said jokingly, "Why not have a grand marriage? You see, most of my subordinates are men, and Amazon Lily is all women. The two sides may be able to communicate better. Then the boy will belong to the Noxian Empire, and the girl will belong to Amazon Lily. How about it?"

Amazon Lily is a daughter kingdom, and their reproduction is actually mainly dependent on the Nine Snakes Pirates. After the crew of the Nine Snakes Pirates go out to sea, they will capture some handsome boys, and then bring them to Amazon Lily, and have them mate with the girls of Amazon Lily. If a baby girl is born, they will keep her, and if a baby boy is born, they will drown him. This is how they reproduce.

Toli Toma was silent for a moment. In fact, many female warriors of the Nine Snakes Pirates are already pregnant. She even has Darius's child. So Toli Toma didn't want to refuse Darius's determination. It's better to keep the money within the family! She agreed, "Okay, but I still need to go back and discuss the details with Granny New."

"Okay, that's settled then."

Soon, Toli Toma set off.

A few days later, Ashen found Darius and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the finances of our Noxus Empire are in great difficulty."

"Not enough money?" Darius frowned as he listened.

Ah Shen also nodded and said seriously: "Because His Majesty prohibits the sale of weapons and seastone, the fiscal revenue is insufficient."

Darius sneered as he listened, "As expected, the finances are still insufficient! Now all the money has been used up."

Ah Shen said at this time: "Actually, I can understand that you don't sell weapons, but as for seastone, even when Wano Country was closed to the outside world, it still traded seastone with the World Government. During this period, the underground bosses in the New World have repeatedly proposed to buy seastone mines."

Darius snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Those idiots in Wano Country used to sell seastone as ordinary stone, which is why there are so many cheap seastones in the ocean. Selling this kind of material to the World Government, isn't that aiding the enemy?"

Ah Shen listened and remained silent. In fact, although there is not much seastone in the sea, it is definitely not a small number. The purity of the seastone in Wano Country is very high. This may be caused by the special environment of Wano Country. However, even the low-purity seastone produced by the World Government and other kingdoms is priceless in many places, because seastone is too restraining to Devil Fruits.

Now that Darius owns such a large-scale seastone mine, he will not sell these things casually like Kaido in the original work.

As for why they don’t sell weapons, it’s even simpler. Instead of buying weapons to make money, it’s faster to use the weapons to rob money and territory.

Darius looked at Ashen and said seriously, "Get ready to go to sea! The population and land of the Noxian Empire are still too small. We can't just rely on this small piece of land. We must expand our territory as soon as possible."
