Chapter 102 City of Seven Waters

After sailing for a period of time, standing on Garp's "doghead warship", Villian can already see the G-3 branch from a distance.

A huge fortress-like building stands on a high cliff, and the G-3 branch is built on a medium-sized island.

The branch bases established by the navy on the great route are more normal, more like military bases and fortresses, without too many supporting living facilities, and living towns composed of the families of the navy.

Because the branch on the great route is very dangerous, maybe it will be attacked by desperate pirates.

Therefore, the branches on the Great Route are directly under the jurisdiction of the Navy Headquarters, so most of the families of the soldiers of the branch also live in the safer town of Marin Vanduo.

As the "dog-head warship" slowly approached the pier, Villian saw the defensive measures of the G-3 branch. The ones on the shore defense facilities were rows of long and thick black pipes. The power is absolutely amazing.

There are seven or eight warships of different sizes docked at the port, including regular naval general standard warships, smaller auxiliary ships, and transport ships for transporting supplies.

On the pier, the navy came and went. Everyone was busy with the work at hand, patrolling, moving things. There are many people in the G-3 branch base, which is a very powerful naval base.

"Disembark."

Arriving at the branch base, Garp took Villian ashore.

"Lieutenant General Garp!"

Seeing Karp's return, the admirals and admirals of the G-3 branch were all very excited. During the three months that Karp was away, they were all earnestly performing the duties of the branch.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

Karp laughed and responded to the sailors. In the eyes of the sailors of the G-3 branch, Karp is a humorous, funny, straightforward, and very caring boss. Apart from his amazing words, Karp is definitely a people-friendly faction among admirals.

"Oh oh oh!!!"

The sailors cheered Garp, and this scene made Villian think that they would shout "serve the people" in the next second.

"Go to eat first, and then you can go to the combat department of the branch to mobilize the sailors. The sailors here are very reliable. You can ask them more about those pirates."

Garp took Villian into the solemn and heavily guarded G-3 branch. self-knowledge.

"clear."

Villian nodded. He was planning to do that. The sailors on the ship provided him with a lot of useful information. Of course he knew that these sailors were more reliable than Garp.

"Are you going with me?"

Villian asked, and the two had already walked to the restaurant of the G-3 branch. Everyone along the way would greet Garp, and then looked at Villian curiously.

After all, the last person who will be taken by Lieutenant General Garp to "teach his face" is Lieutenant General "Aokiji" Kuzan who has been promoted to Lieutenant General two years ago.

Although "Aokiji" Kuzan studied under Zefa like Villian, and is the only one among the future "Three Generals" who has a good relationship with Zefa, but it is Garp who helped him more. Bad old man.

"Aokiji" Kuzan also respects and admires Karp, and thinks that Karp's repeated refusal to be promoted to general is very handsome. He sometimes behaves like a "little fan".

That's why "Aokiji" Kuzan can become the "Three Generals" with "Red Dog" Sakaski and "Luffy's second uncle" who are much older than him, because of "Aokiji" Kuzan It's a ridiculous way to flatter Karp.

But the truth is, flattering Garp has nothing to do with being an admiral, and Garp can't cover the sky with one hand in the Navy.

Garp himself could refuse to be promoted to general, but appointing a general is a bit too much, but Garp's refusal to be promoted to general is indeed freeing up the position of general for "Aokiji" Kuzan.

Otherwise, after "Second Uncle Luffy" and "Red Dog" Sakaski, who are older than "Aokiji" Kuzan, become generals, how can he have a place?

"I won't follow, I have other tasks to perform."

Garp shook his head, he will not act with Villian, he has more important things to do, besides, with him following, Villian will not get exercise.

"clear."

Villian didn't think it was strange either. It was impossible for Garp to make a special trip back for the captain of the pirate group with a bounty of only 6000 million. It was normal for him to have other tasks.

Villian is now more and more sure that this "Hurricane Pirates" is definitely a "lucky one" randomly drawn by Garp from the pirates near the G-3 branch.

Garp and Villian quickly finished their meal in the restaurant, and then separated directly to go about their own affairs.

Villian took Garp's order letter and went straight to the combat department. The order letter allowed him to mobilize a navy general standard warship and bring a full crew of nearly a thousand sailors.

This is not the number of people that a "Lieutenant Commander" can command. Villian is in the 16th branch, and there are only more than 500 people under his command. These 1000 people must be commanded by a captain of the navy. Villian wants to transfer so many people. You must go with Lieutenant General Garp's appointment letter.

"Major Villian, right? The mobilization order has been issued, you wait a moment, the two majors who are in charge of assisting you will come over soon, and they have assembled their troops."

When he came to the combat department, Villian handed over the letter of appointment to a major general in the office. The position of this major general should be the staff officer of the G-3 branch. After all, Karp can't sit in the office He must be matched with a civil servant for the type of office.

"Thanks."

Villian nodded, and sat down in the rest area of ​​the combat department. This conference room is very large. Apart from the major general who is in charge of handling practical affairs, there are also many admirals who are busy at the school level. There are reserve generals and brigadier generals, who are mainly responsible for the routine operation of the G-3 branch.

They looked at Villian with curiosity. After all, Villian is just a "Lieutenant Commander". It must be something special to be in charge of a sea mission with Garp's letter of appointment, because the Lieutenant Commander is in G- The 3 branches do not have the power to lead a team to fight alone.

This is very realistic. The "Lieutenant Commander" who was already the backbone of the branch in the 16th branch, came to the G-3 branch, but he didn't even have the right to lead the army to sea alone.

Although everyone was very curious, they were very disciplined, and no one took the initiative to "gossip", which allowed Villian to wait quietly for the two lieutenant commanders.

Villian didn't wait long, and the two lieutenant commanders didn't neglect either, they rushed over immediately.

Although both of them were very puzzled to obey the orders of another "Lieutenant Commander" from outside, but since it was an order, they had to carry it out.

"Let's go."

Looking at the two lieutenants in front of him who are about 1.9 meters tall and whose skin has been exposed to the sun for a long time, they look like naval veterans, and Villian didn't chat here too much.

"Yes!"

The two lieutenant commanders were very obedient to orders. Although their military ranks were the same, in this mission, Villian was the captain and the direct commander of the team.

Leaving the combat department with the two majors and walking towards the pier, Villian began to ask the two majors about the "Hurricane Pirates". According to his idea, the combat department of the G-3 branch arranged for the two majors to follow him Acting together, these two should know something.

"The Hurricane Pirates, the captain's name is Drummond, a superman with devil fruit ability, he should eat the fruit related to speed, but it is not too sure which one, they have rarely shot before, recently came to It was only after the waters under our jurisdiction that they began to conflict with us and were included in our watch list."

Major Thomas, who was following Villian's left rear, replied that this is a bit of key information. That Drummond ate a superhuman devil fruit related to "speed".

"Is it a slow fruit? But isn't the eater Foxy the Silver Fox?"

Speaking of fruits that are directly related to speed, Villian immediately thought of "Silver Fox" Foxy's "Superhuman-Slowness Fruit".

"Silver Fox" Foxy was born in South China Sea, and he is not young. He should have gone to sea in his 20s now. The bounty offered by Foxy for "Slow Fruit" is only 400 million, which is far less than Drummond's 6000 million bounty.

"There are not many people on his ship, about two to three hundred people, and there are only three or four well-known fighters, and the bounties are around two to thirty million. He has no special abilities, and only Drummond himself is really difficult. "

Villian was thinking about it, and Major Keo, who was following him on the right, then added, that is to say, as long as Drummond is defeated, the "Hurricane Pirates" will cease to exist, and everything else is just irrelevant. important small roles.

"Just leave that Drummond to me, and you will be responsible for the rest."

Villian opened his mouth to arrange a battle plan. It was very simple. The opponent will be the general, the king will be the king, and it depends on who can kill the first.

"Yes."

Major Thomas and Major Keo replied, the two of them looked at each other, and both of them saw the worry in each other's eyes, but they still obediently obeyed the order.

Arriving at the port, Willian boarded a warship that was ready to go to sea together with Major Thomas and Major Keo.

This is a general standard warship of the navy, fully loaded with sailors and ammunition, a general standard warship of the navy can basically handle most of the maritime affairs, and there are very few pirate groups that can fight against such a warship.

"They should be near the capital of the seven waters. Our intelligence personnel said yesterday that those who witnessed them in the capital of the seven waters should be able to stop them now."

Major Thomas has a lot of information about the "Hurricane Pirates". They used to be responsible for paying attention to the information of this pirate group. Generally, they will follow a colonel or brigadier general to capture these pirates.

"Then let's go, aiming at the capital of seven waters."

Villian is naturally a follower of good people, and he has no relevant information, so he naturally needs to listen to professional advice.

"Capital of Seven Waters" is a famous shipbuilding island. 800 years ago, a warship named "Pluto" was built by the shipbuilding technicians on the island, who mastered the most cutting-edge shipbuilding technology, but the situation here is not good. Well, because Akula Ragna, the "God of Water", wreaks havoc every year, seriously affecting people's lives and trade.

The trade on the great sea route was already sluggish, and there were few connections between islands. In order to compete for customers, the major shipbuilding companies continued to fire and merge. Coupled with the tsunami that came every year, the residents on the island were all killed. Shadows loom.

Now, the legendary shipbuilder Tom is concentrating on developing the "Sea Train", and there are still about nine years before the successful development. Franky has been with Tom for seven years, and he and Bingshan are learning shipbuilding skills from Tom.

The battleship galloped all the way and came to the vicinity of the "Capital of Seven Waters", and the beautiful shipbuilding capital could be seen from a distance.

This city is based on the "Water City" Venice as the prototype. The "Capital of Seven Waters" is not an island, but a "small archipelago". "The waterway extending down from the high place is a very beautiful "water city".

Of course, it is very chaotic here now, and it has not yet become a famous commercial center because of the passage of the "sea train".

"The capital of seven waters, the Tom who built the ship for One Piece is here."

Now, "Capital of Seven Waters" is most famous for Tom, the "world's number one shipbuilder" who built a ship for "One Piece" Gore D. Roger. Gore D. Roger asked him to build a ship. The pirate ship is the "Oro Jackson" built of wood from the treasure tree "Adam".

This is indeed a big event, but what really made him famous was when "One Piece" Gore D. Roger was executed, and he was brought into justice for building a ship for "One Piece" Gore D. Roger He was tried on the island, and by explaining the design and concept of the "Sea Train" to the presiding judge, the judge changed the trial and released him.

This was more than five years ago, but it was big news that shocked the whole world. This guy is the spokesperson of "Craftsmanship Changes Destiny".

If everything develops normally, he can even use the credit for building the "Sea Train" to offset the crime of building a ship for "One Piece", thus becoming the No.1 who has a close relationship with "One Piece", but was declared innocent.

Unfortunately, as the best shipbuilder in the "Capital of Seven Waters", he has inherited the design of the ancient weapon "Pluto", but the "World Government" has been coveting the "Design of Hades".

"Every man is innocent, but he is guilty."

Villian sighed with emotion, the battleship "Pluto" can destroy an island with one shot, it is indeed very terrifying.

But it also depends on whether it can be mass-produced, whether the rate of fire is fast, and the source and manufacture of ammunition. If mass production is not possible, the rate of fire is very slow, and it is difficult to manufacture special ammunition, then this "Pluto" is not so terrifying. After all, some devil fruits are no less powerful than this "Pluto", and it may not be possible to research more terrifying weapons than this.

Compared with the "Sea King" who can "command all Neptunes", "Pluto" is almost meaningless. After all, each of the "Sea Kings" living in the deep sea is a terrifying existence.

In the world of "One Piece", the strength of "animals" varies greatly. There are ordinary edible ones, and there are also successful Luffy who have to open four gears to solve them. There are also deep-sea sea kings with a body size of several kilometers Those who are intelligent are even more terrifying ancient creatures like the Lord.

"The tsunami that has been affecting the capital of the seven waters is said to have been unintentionally caused by a certain giant Neptune."

Villian is quite curious about this statement. If it is true, then as long as the "Sea King" is solved, the "Seven Water Capital" will get rid of the influence of the tsunami.

But obviously, if the "Sea King" was really that easy to solve, Karp would have gone to solve it long ago.

If it really exists, it must be in the deep sea, and its size is exaggerated. If it doesn't come up to the surface, even Garp, who is "Invincible with an Iron Fist", can't do anything about it.

"Major Villian, the intelligence personnel of the CP agency lurking on the island replied that the Cyclonus Pirates just left the capital of seven waters! According to their route, the next target is the Chambord Islands! We should be able to catch up soon! "

Villian's battleship did not approach the "Capital of Seven Waters", but Colonel Keao contacted the intelligence personnel of "Capital of Seven Waters", which was relatively timely.

"Chase."

Villian moved his body. As we all know, the "Great Route" is a very special sea area. The geomagnetism, celestial phenomena, ocean currents, and air currents are all chaotic. The previous navigation skills and experience are unreliable. Only the record pointer and the permanent pointer are worthwhile. trusted.

In the first half, starting from the starting point "Inverted Mountain", there are seven magnetic forces extending out. Only at the beginning, you can choose any one. Once you choose, you can't change it. You can only go down the channel one by one. , these seven lines will converge to the Chambord Islands.

And the next location of the "Capital of Seven Waters" route is the Chambord Islands. Although Moonlight Moriah has been defeated by Kaido at this time, his "Terror Barque" has not yet reached the fog here. In the sea area.

And as long as you know the sailing route of the "Hurricane Pirates", it is not difficult to catch up, because the "Hurricane Pirates" don't know that there are pursuers behind them.

"Sailing at full speed! Ready to fight!"

Major Thomas yelled, and the sailors immediately responded loudly. Since the Cyclonus Pirates have just left, they should catch up soon, and the battle will start soon, so it is necessary to prepare for the battle in advance. .

This is indeed the case, the battleship galloped all the way, and soon caught up with the "Hurricane Pirates" who were sailing leisurely.
