The Great Voyage: I Became Nami's Brother at the Start

After receiving the information, Norton checked the information at the SS-class shipyard.

After the SS-class shipyard completed its upgrade, the previous shipbuilding catalog disappeared entirely, replaced by four major options.

These are wooden ships, ironclad ships, special ships, and ship assemblies.

Norton casually opened the special ship's portal and, sure enough, saw three types of submarines.

The first type is the SS-class sightseeing submarine, which is simple to manufacture and has limited capabilities.

The second type is the SS-class reconnaissance submarine, which is simple to build, has a single function, and is fast.

The third type is the SS-class attack submarine, which requires more materials, has powerful performance, and strong attack capabilities.

If all three types of submarines were built to SS-class standards, they would not only possess superior defensive capabilities but also powerful energy systems and extended range.

The SS-class attack submarine can also launch powerful SS-class torpedoes.

This thing is so awesome, yet it's as easy to operate as an airplane.

Oh, right, the airplane!

I need to hurry up and teach them how to fly the plane these next few days.

One problem after another comes to mind; being a king is truly not an easy task.

After organizing the things he had gotten from the sign-in over the past few days, Norton went out to prepare breakfast.

Over the past few days, Norton's check-in items have been quite ordinary since Bonnie wasn't around.

There are three pairs of Grade A running shoes, which can automatically adjust the size to enhance running speed and jumping ability.

Six healing pills, plus the four I still have, for a total of ten.

Grade A bondage art, the Immortal Binding Lock—no explanation needed, just bind them!

The appearance of this thing once made Norton suspect that the system girl's hobbies were a bit off.

Chapter 192 gradually got on track.

A-grade Light Necklace, capable of illuminating darkness and bringing warmth in the cold.

Finally, there's Grade A teeth whitening toothpaste and Grade A toothbrush, which will whiten your teeth instantly without damaging your gums!

When Norton saw these rewards, he felt... it was just outrageous, okay?

Even without the lucky baby, with the mascot Bonnie by their side, they shouldn't have come up with something this outrageous!

Also... also... toothpaste and toothbrush come together?

Does it mean that when you're single, you don't deserve good things?

So the name of your system girl is actually "The system that rewards you when you have a lover by your side", right?

Norton also complained a lot about this.

After breakfast, Norton went to the airport to check on the situation.

He laughed as soon as he boarded the plane.

The system is incredibly user-friendly. The control panel on the console is essentially a keyboard with joystick buttons, making it very easy to use.

After briefly glancing at the pilot's manual in the plane and confirming that the operating mode was consistent with the settings of the games he had played, Norton began to try out the piloting method using a joystick and buttons.

Pushing the joystick down is diving, pushing it up is climbing, pulling it all the way to the left is turning left, and pulling it left twice is rolling to the left. The reverse is also true. The A button is for starting and accelerating, B is for decelerating and braking, and C is for stopping the engine.

For bombers and fighters, there's also an "E" button, which represents the machine gun and missile/bomb release button, respectively.

Having memorized the operating procedures, Norton pressed the A key, the plane started up, and slowly took off.

As long as he doesn't pull down the control stick, the aircraft will remain in the ground taxiing phase.

Slowly pulling out of the hangar, the black SS-class reconnaissance transport plane gently approached the runway.

Norton fastened his seatbelt, put on his goggles and earmuffs, took a deep breath, and pulled down the control stick, and the plane began to accelerate and taxi.

A dozen seconds later, the black reconnaissance transport plane took off smoothly, and the pulleys below automatically retracted.

Wow—the king is flying!

"The king can fly, okay?"

"Oh no, I meant to say, this huge thing can actually fly!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect that either! That's amazing!"

The airport security personnel on the ground were all shocked and cheered and discussed the scene.

"Wow—it's really different to fly a plane!" The reconnaissance transport plane quickly climbed to an altitude of several thousand meters. Norton looked at the instrument panel in front of him, adjusted the control stick to maintain level flight, and then pressed the L button on the upper left of the control stick.

The L key on the reconnaissance transport aircraft activates stealth mode, a feature unique to this aircraft.

The L button on the fighter jet is for automatic target lock. Press the launch button with your right hand, and the missile will fly over.

"The L key for reconnaissance transport planes is for stealth, and the R key seems to be for super acceleration! Let's give it a try!" Norton had an idea and pressed the R key with his right hand.

boom--

The intense push-back sensation was overwhelming, and the exhilarating feeling of instant acceleration almost made Norton feel breathless.

Fortunately, Norton let go quickly; otherwise, he probably wouldn't have even had a chance to fly back, and would have crashed halfway through the flight.

This feeling is like...

Ok……

Just like a video Norton saw in his past life.

An adult took a child to a M&M store to fill up a bag of M&Ms. The adult wasn't watching for a second, and the child filled up a whole bag. Luckily, it gave the adult a heart attack.

The reconnaissance transport plane flew all the way to above the Red Line, a section of the Red Line that Norton had never seen before.

Because apart from the Holy Land of Mary Geoise and its surroundings, which he had focused on observing during the World Conference, he hadn't really observed other areas much.

This time, after flying a reconnaissance plane northward along the Red Line for a distance, it was discovered that there are still quite a few countries on the Red Line below.

These countries were basically all countries that Norton had never heard of or seen before.

Some still show signs of human habitation, while others are long since deserted.

This demonstrates just how terrifying the world government's desire to control its own autocratic dictatorships truly is.

They truly took the phrase "those who obey me prosper, those who oppose me perish" to its extreme.

Ohara was wiped out by the World Government without any justification simply because it had seen a little bit of blank history, and Robin, who survived, was also branded as the child of a devil.

Norton wouldn't bother to feign flattery such a dictator who takes whatever he wants.

Think about our ancestors in our world. What hardships didn't they endure? They still faced all kinds of pressure and started from scratch step by step, developing quietly and becoming stronger in the process.

After flying for a while longer, Norton returned to base.

The flight experience was pretty good, but he really experienced the physical demands it placed on him.

I've heard many people who wanted to join the Air Force and later succeeded mention that the Air Force's physical examination is very strict. In addition to having excellent physical fitness, you can't have any scars on your body.

At first, he didn't quite understand, after all, the different types of soldiers were different!

Now I finally understand...

The pressure changes at high altitudes are something that ordinary people cannot withstand.

The speed boost from the SS-class reconnaissance transport aircraft, especially when activated by pressing the R key, is even more exaggerated.

"Alright, inform your captain that flight lessons will begin this afternoon. Three planes, each with two pilots (first and second) and one reserve pilot, for a total of nine people." After parking the planes in the hangar, Norton jumped down and gave instructions to the guards.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The guards immediately stood at attention and saluted.

Norton waved his hand and then boarded the fighter jet and bomber for a test flight.

He was relatively quiet when flying fighter jets, but when Norton flew bombers, he got a little restless and dropped a few shells, experiencing the thrill of bombing.

I'll circle this here; I'll mention it later.

After lunch, Norton went to the airport to start his classes in the afternoon.

Initially, Norton did not have everyone board the plane for hands-on practice immediately. Instead, he started with basic driving theory, making sure they remembered what each button did.

Such basic courses cannot be completed in a day or two. These people's physical condition can be improved drastically by drinking Grade A water and Grade A liquor, but that does not mean that their comprehension ability can also be improved quickly.

The world's established way of thinking is only familiar with ships.

This was the first time they had ever seen such an advanced, flyable aircraft. Even airships from the past didn't look like this!

Not to mention that with just a few button presses, this huge thing can fly into the sky, which is simply outrageous.

From cognition to understanding, and then to acceptance, Norton has managed to get these people to accept it completely, both physically and mentally.

By this time, five days had passed.

Over the past five days, the Free Alliance, with the Kingdom of Oicot at its core, has gradually gotten back on track.

Chapter 193: Exploiting Bugs!

Norton also received 100 bags of S-grade Fertilizer...

That's right, one hundred bags!

It can almost cover the entire Hongdao Island, thus firmly establishing Hongdao Island's status as an agricultural island.

In the future, agricultural and sideline products produced in Hongdao will become a major pillar of the Free Alliance.

There was also good news: Thor had returned.

Thor has completely graduated from its parents' training, mastering all kinds of dragon-inherited combat and survival skills, and has successfully reached S-rank in terms of physique rating.

Once Norton's physical fitness rating reaches S+ or breaks through to SS level, its physical fitness rating will also be upgraded to SS level.

What's the situation in the East China Sea lately?

Norton returned to the palace and questioned Mickey and Colt.

Colt spoke first: "The remaining islands have basically all reached a consensus and have all agreed to break away from the World Government and join the peripheral forces of the Freedom Alliance."

These were all things he arranged in the past few days. Regardless of the distance, he sent people with key propaganda personnel to the other side's island to explain the situation and receive accurate answers.
