Luo Lan was stunned.

But then I thought, my requirements are that the boat is big enough, has enough space inside, and can be driven.

You don't even need to go fast, you don't even need sails.

Just install a few pairs of training wheels. Rhode Island is only three nautical miles from the doldrums, so there's no need to go anywhere else.

Even if the speed is only 1 knot, it is acceptable.

In this case, more than 200 ship workers in the shipyard will have to work every day...

It seems to be enough.

After all, in the original book, two people built a super complicated boat in three days, and it also came with fine decoration.

In comparison, the ship I requested was as simple as it could be.

"Colonel, there's only one question left!"

"what is the problem?"

"We... don't have the materials!!"

Well...

Luo Lan suddenly reacted.

Indeed, how can we build such a big ship without materials?

"There's such a large forest on the island. Can the wood in it be used?"

"No, especially for the keel. If we use wood from Rhodes Island, it won't meet the requirements in terms of strength and toughness. If we insist on using it, it will greatly reduce the life of the ship and it will not be able to withstand severe sea conditions!"

Hearing this, Luo Lan sighed slightly.

matter...

Trouble!

But soon, he seemed to think of something.

"Kylo, ​​you said it will affect lifespan, to what extent?"

"Well... according to my estimation, even if it is always in a calm environment, its lifespan is only about one year at most!"

1 years?

Do I need this boat to survive for a year?

No need, I just need to build a ship as a transition so that I can go into the calm zone to hunt sea kings and bring back all their flesh and blood.

Moreover, the port has the feature of self-repair +1%, which means it can restore 1% of the overall damage of the ship every day.

In other words, if this ship sinks every time it goes out, it would be equivalent to having an infinite lifespan, right?

As for being unable to withstand the severe sea conditions?

We are only three nautical miles away from the calm belt, where there is no wind and no severe sea conditions.

Isn't this totally fine?

"Keluo, just use the trees on the island. Pick the right ones and cut them down and start working right away!"

"As for future needs, I'll figure it out!"

All issues have been resolved.

Luo Lan felt relieved and gave the order directly.

"Yes, Colonel!"

------

Luo Lan can indeed use this method to build some less important ships.

But the shipyard will be used to build warships in the future.

Not to mention the steel battleships that Luo Lan expected, even if it was the naval warships of this world, it would be useless if the right materials could not be found.

The worst thing is that this world seems to have gone crazy.

All the best materials, whether wood, ore, or otherwise, are concentrated in the Grand Line.

There is nothing in the world!!

It's impossible for me to ask Aunt He for help with this kind of thing.

After all, the amount required is too large, and it will continue to grow in the future.

how should I solve this?

Maybe...

That guy can help!

After thinking for a long time, Luo Lan finally made up his mind.

After all, although they have always relied on the black market to purchase various materials, this amount can only barely meet previous consumption.

If you want to build ships on a large scale, or get some advanced materials.

The previous method of buying secretly from the black market is no longer effective.

After much thought, I decided to cooperate with that person.

------

after one day.

On an uninhabited island in the East China Sea.

A familiar scene was played out again.

A news bird flying over the island was suddenly caught in a giant net shot out from below.

After falling to the ground, he was knocked unconscious before he could even beg for mercy.

When he woke up, the giant net that captured him had disappeared.

And on the ground...

There was only one letter.

It says...

From Morgans himself!

The news bird did not dare to slack off and flew back immediately.

It had heard about it. Just two months ago, a colleague who also sold newspapers in Donghai encountered a similar incident.

Finally, the colleague received a reward from President Morgans.

Could it be that this kind of good luck is finally going to fall on me?

The two wings flapped wildly, so fast that they almost caught fire.

At this moment, it just wanted to fly back faster, even for just one second.

And half a day later, the letter indeed appeared in Morgans' hands.

Morgans is very familiar with this note.

He immediately rewarded me with a handful of news birds, and then opened them and started reading.

"Meet directly?"

"Interesting, this is very interesting, let me see who you are!"

------

Another two days passed in the blink of an eye.

Sword Forging Workshop...

It's also finished.

The building is not large and it took only three days to build.

After giving the system the order to start work at the ship design bureau, Luo Lan began to extract the building characteristics.

I was lucky this time and didn’t even need to refresh. The imprinting was completed directly.

[Architectural feature 1: Finished product fit +50%]

[Building Feature 2: Finished Product Quality +80%]

The first characteristic is that after the knife is forged, its compatibility with anyone will increase by an additional 50%.

As for the second one, it is simply an improvement in quality.

In addition to the characteristics, Luo Lan also purchased one A-level, three B-level, and twenty apprentice-level swordsmiths.

Another ten thousand plus points.

Luo Lan couldn't help but sigh again, points really don't last long.

If he continues like this, he will have no choice but to extend his evil clutches towards Nami once again.

After all, there are nearly 10 billion Baileys piled up in this young lady's warehouse.

"Sato, what level of swords can you make now?"

Luo Lan asked Sato, the newly recruited A-level swordsmith.

"With the materials the branch currently has, we can only create ordinary quality. If we want to create a famous sword, or even better, we must have better materials."

Well, it's back to the question of materials.

Luo Lan was also helpless about this.

Calculating the time, it would be tomorrow until the date that Morgans and I had agreed to meet.

I hope we can reach an agreement and resolve this issue by then?

"How about this, Sato, you lead the team to forge ordinary sabers first, ensuring that every marine in the frontline combat sequence has one. As for better materials..."

"I'll fix it soon!"

"Yes, Colonel!"

After responding, Sato immediately led his men to work enthusiastically.

------

That night.

Tana returned to Rhode Island.

As soon as Smoker got off the boat, he started complaining.

I had just arrived in the South China Sea and hadn't had time to do anything when Luo Lan called me back.

"Okay, stop cursing. I'm going to go on a Grand Line, and I'm going to get it tomorrow. There's no other way except Tana!"

When I come back, you can start again!

Having said that, he ignored Smoker who was still cursing.

Luo Lan went straight into Tana.

A few minutes later.

Tana, which had just docked, had already...

Let’s set off again!
