From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

Doflamingo also knew some obscure information. It seemed that the reason why Mihawk joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea was to cause trouble for the navy. It seemed that he had some unpleasant past with the navy admiral Rodriguez. Diarmait?

Doflamingo didn't dwell too much on the truth of this matter. After all, it had nothing to do with him.

What he cares about is that the plan of the Seven Warlords of the Sea has been slowly getting on track in the past few years since it was announced. There are seven positions in total, and three have been released now. Rounding it off, it can be said that half of the Seven Warlords of the Sea have been formed, which is not a big problem.

If Doflamingo doesn't work harder, he will really be left behind!

If he could establish a good relationship with Smoker, perhaps he could help out with the Shichibukai matter? After all, no matter how good Smoker was, he was still the most senior of the Shichibukai.

Now it seems that it is about to take off again, and what makes Doflamingo even more satisfied is that Smoker is very similar to himself. They are not bound by the identity of pirates and also like to do some business. This makes them get along very well.

So whether from the perspective of interests or from these aspects, Doflamingo is ready to establish a good relationship with Smoker.

"Yes, young master." Torrepol nodded quickly.

Doflamingo took another sip of red wine and stopped asking about Amway. Instead, he said, "I came to the North Sea this time for only one thing, to step up the purchase of platinum and lead. How much do you have and how much do you buy? What's the current market situation?" "The market is relatively stable, but the prices of platinum and lead continue to rise. In addition to us, there seems to be a stronger force competing for a share of platinum and lead..." Torrepol said.

"It's the World Government, no need to guess." Doflamingo said.

"World Government???" Trepol asked in surprise.

"That's right. I was able to get the information about platinum and lead from the World Government. You don't think that the people in the World Government are all fools and incompetent, right? If so, they would not be able to control such a large 'ship'." Doflamingo said.

In recent times, the prices of platinum and lead have begun to rise steadily. Hidden beneath this good news is the fact that a disease called "white disease" has begun to spread in the white town of Frevans.

Within the world government, this disease has been named 'Platinum-Lead Disease', and according to the results of research and treatment by many medical experts, this disease... is a terminal illness with no cure!

The world government, which has figured out the pathology, has already realized that the disease is hidden in the blood, and the entire Frevans is a potential patient.

Therefore, many high-level officials believe that Frevans will experience a large-scale outbreak of platinum-lead disease within a few years, and the currently spreading "white disease" is just a sign of its origin.

The World Government believed that the probability of this happening was very high, so it immediately launched a business plan to acquire platinum and lead mines on a large scale.

That's right, the moment the World Government discovered this problem, they didn't even consider saving Frevans, or rather, they had already determined that Frevans was beyond saving.

This country will either be destroyed by platinum-lead disease, or it will cause panic among neighboring countries due to platinum-lead disease, leading to war and national destruction. There is no other possibility.

After all, this is a terminal disease hidden in the blood of all Frevans people. How can it be cured?

More than two hundred years ago, after discovering problems with platinum and lead mining in Frevans, the world government did not stop this matter due to its own interests, thus sowing the seeds of destruction!

Compared with this, it is better to make a fortune quickly. Once a large-scale epidemic, war or the like occurs in Frevans, the output of platinum and lead will inevitably drop sharply. At the same time, due to the "platinum-lead disease", I am afraid that no one will dare to mine platinum and lead in the next ten years.

By then, with the endorsement of the world government, proving that platinum and lead themselves have no problems and will not cause illness, the price of platinum and lead will inevitably hit an extremely high level. The more you buy now, the more you will earn!

The ruthless world government wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity. This is a business worth tens of trillions of berries! Even hundreds of trillions is possible.

Doflamingo is just a small shrimp who eats some soup under the huge black hand of the World Government.

He knew very well that the World Government was never as incompetent as it appeared.

Right

Chapter 216: Captain of the Marine Headquarters - Boa Hancock!

South of the wind belt, tobacco island.

This name was naturally given by the G-7 Navy because the island has been developed into a huge tobacco planting and production base.

Over 30,000 pirate prisoners were stationed on the island, working in shifts day and night to produce large quantities of "Smoker" cigarettes. The spokesperson for this brand was Smoker, who was currently very popular within the pirate camp.

It's not because Smoker has a good reputation. In fact, he doesn't have a very good reputation in the pirate camp and is called the "running dog of the World Government." But this cigarette is really good. It is said to be a tobacco that has been out of print for more than two hundred years. At the same time, it is really strong when smoked!

Pirates naturally like these things!

This island basically has no rainfall all year round, is located in a doldrums, and has no sea breeze. However, the island's groundwater resources are particularly abundant, so the environment here is very good.

The sky is clear all year round, and the tobacco on the island grows luxuriantly.

In an open-air processing plant, more than 9 pirates were busy with their own affairs. They crushed the dried tobacco into powder, then rolled it with rolling paper, rubbed it on their thighs, and rolled it into the shape of cigarettes. They collected them into boxes. Later, there would be pirates responsible for another process to package them up and finally send them to the dock of the port. They would be transported and loaded by the navy and handed over to Spandine of CP-. Spandine would quickly transport these goods to the New World to be sold by Stussy and Smoker.

At this time, a naval vice admiral was inspecting this open-air processing plant. To be honest, this was just one of the many processing plants on the island and there was nothing special about it.

This Vice Admiral is none other than Vice Admiral Dauberman of G-7.

He held a cigar in his mouth and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, watching the pirates rolling cigarettes on their thighs. He suddenly felt that the cigar in his mouth was no longer fragrant...

Fortunately, these things are sold to pirates. People on the navy side don’t do this, especially the G-7 navy, who hate the cigarettes they produce themselves.

After all, if anyone knew that these cigarettes were rolled on the thighs of a group of pirate prisoners, they would have no appetite to taste them.

It’s better to sell it to pirates and let these damn pirates taste the senior’s "body fragrance".

Just as Dauberman was inspecting the area, a very beautiful female naval captain, who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, quickly approached and saluted. "Vice Admiral Dauberman, welcome." Dauberman nodded at her, a smile plastered across his ferocious face as he said, "Captain Hancock, how are things going here?" Indeed, the naval captain before him was none other than Boa Hancock, the Amazon Lily.

She has been in G-7 for more than three years and just became a colonel of G-7 this year. According to the hierarchy of G-7, her military rank is subordinate to the headquarters.

In other words, it took Hancock three years to become a captain at the headquarters level of the Navy.

This speed is already very fast. You know, Tina, the chief graduate of the military academy, was promoted to captain of the navy just this year. She had been holding the rank of lieutenant colonel before.

Hancock was much faster than Tina.

But this is also normal, because compared with Tina, Hancock's background is very special. She is the crown prince of Amazon Lily and has been selected as the next emperor.

In other words, she is the ruler of a country with a population of more than one million, and she has tens of thousands of female warriors with domineering power under her command. Her background is very powerful.

In addition, G-7 developed the Calm Belt and collaborated extensively with Amazon. For example, many Amazonians were present on Tobacco Island. Lily's soldiers were helping the navy guard pirate prisoners.

And Hancock's talent is indeed very strong. She has awakened the Conqueror's Haki and eaten the Sweet-Sweet Fruit given to her by Diarmait. Her strength changes every day. How can she be weak if she can win the title of Seven Warlords of the Sea when she goes to sea for the first time at the age of eighteen?

Therefore, (bccj) because of these direct and indirect reasons, Hancock was promoted very quickly in G-7. According to Gion's intention, after Hancock came of age, she would officially become a rear admiral of the Marine Headquarters, and then secretly carry out the plan to lurk among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea as a rear admiral of the Navy and captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates!

In fact, the meaning is the same as when Diarmait promoted Smoker from a little kid in school to a major general in one go.

Since you want people to risk their lives for you, how can you not give them benefits?

Back then, Hancock, who had just joined the navy, was very repulsive to G-7. After all, she was forced to join the navy, and her ancestors had all been pirates. It would be strange for her to have any good feelings towards him.

But now, things were completely different. Hancock could clearly sense how much her country had changed after the Navy showed goodwill to Amazon Lily and they cooperated with each other. Her living standards had increased dramatically.

Their range of activities in the doldrums is also rapidly expanding, and they can obtain a lot of naval resources from all aspects. In addition, the navy has completely lifted restrictions on Amazon Lily. Amazon Lily citizens can now participate in the navy's conscription on their own.

This year was the first year of opening, and as far as Hancock knew, quite a few Amazons had already joined. Lily citizens had applied to join the G-7. She could foresee that in the near future, Amazons and Lily would become even better. At the same time, with a large number of people joining the military, they would also transform from a pirate nation to a normal country, and by boarding this fast ship, they would maintain a relatively friendly relationship with the navy.

These are all very beneficial to Amazon and Lily.

Therefore, by now, Hancock has begun to be proud of her status as a naval captain. She even secretly decided that in the future, the emperor of Amazon Lily would follow the tradition of the Nine Snakes Pirates, and each generation would have to join the army from a young age and at least reach the rank of vice admiral before returning to take over the throne.

Hearing Doberman's question, Hancock smiled and said, "Everything is normal. Our production is increasing, and our shipments are growing. However, it seems that the demand there is even greater, and our production capacity is still somewhat insufficient. I have submitted an application to expand the labor force. I hope to apply for more pirate prisoners to develop the undeveloped wasteland on the island into plantations..."

"Really?" Doberman nodded, then said, "That's great, but with the Doldrums' resources now being exported, the production capacity on the various islands can't keep up with demand. We've already expanded the pirate prisoner workforce to 300,000, stationed on various islands, engaged in various development projects, but it's still a bit stretched. We've already captured most of the prisoners in Impelton... Perhaps your application will have to wait a while before it's implemented."

Now Magellan is the director of the Imperial Prison, and McCas has retired to enjoy his life, making a lot of money and feeling very happy.

Magellan also inherited McCarthy's political legacy and started closer cooperation with the G-7. The situation in the past where Impelton had to secretly kill many prisoners every year to make room due to overcrowding has long since disappeared.

Now Magellan hopes that the navies of various places can become more powerful and send pirate prisoners from all over the world to Impelton in a steady stream.

This is not a prisoner at all, this is simply the golden Bailey!

Nowadays, except for those pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million and difficult to control, most of the ordinary prisoners in Impelton have been taken to the Calm Belt to do hard labor. The first, second, and third floors of Impelton are basically empty...

As the resources of the Calm Belt were exported, more and more labor was needed. Magellan almost wished that he, the director of the prison, could go out and catch pirates himself!

"Ah? Is there no way?" Hancock asked in surprise.

Dauberman nodded and said, "Lord Gion is currently considering countermeasures. Headquarters has also made some suggestions. The current world situation is still unstable. Many pirates are wreaking havoc everywhere, and the revolutionary army is frequently revolting, resulting in a large number of refugees. Headquarters intends to recruit these refugees and send them to the Calm Belt to serve as labor, providing them with a certain amount of compensation and allowing them to settle directly in the Calm Belt. After all, with this development, in ten or twenty years, many mature industrial chains will inevitably form here, and the formation of industrial chains will inevitably attract a large number of permanent residents... We can't rely entirely on pirates to accomplish this."

"Isn't this great?" Hancock said with a bright look in his eyes.

"But it's a little troublesome to implement. After all, the doldrums need to remain hidden for the time being and should not be detected by the outside world. If our navy organizes the immigration, it will be too conspicuous..." Doberman shook his head.

Hancock thought about it for a while after hearing this, but she didn't have any good solution. It was better to leave this problem to the bosses of the headquarters to find a solution.

Deciding to stop discussing the issue, Hancock smiled and said, "Lieutenant General Dauberman, did you hear you'll be the base commander for G-7?"

"Hahaha, you little girl are quite well-informed." Dauberman suddenly laughed.

"Of course, I keep in touch with Lord Gion frequently." Hancock said with a smile.

"That's right. At the headquarters, the general is planning to transfer Lord Gion to the headquarters. I heard that he will be given the title of candidate for general. After Lord Gion goes to the headquarters, G-7 will be handed over to me for management, and I will naturally become the base commander of G-7." Doberman said with a smile.

"Congratulations," Hancock said with emotion.

Dauberman smiled and then said, "It's all thanks to the general's care."

There is nothing to say about the fact that Doberman sits in the position of vice admiral. There are many vice admirals in the navy.

But how many lieutenant generals can become the actual base commander?

Especially a very important base like G-7?

This is undoubtedly a kind of training for Dauberman. If he works hard here for a few years, his qualifications will be gilded.

After returning to the headquarters, he can stand out among the lieutenant generals and become an elite lieutenant general with real power!

At this moment, a lieutenant commander ran over from a distance, saluted Doberman and said, "Vice Admiral Doberman, the Seven Warlords of the Sea. White Hunter. Lord Smoker has arrived at the port."

"Oh? Really? I see." Doberman nodded, then looked at Hancock and said, "Let's go and meet your future companions."

Hancock was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, Lieutenant General Dauberman."

As Diarmait's direct descendant, Doberman naturally knew Smoker's identity, and Hancock, as another member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea plan, certainly had the right to know.

Soon, both of them arrived at the port, and Smoker just got off the boat and was observing the situation on the island with curious eyes.

"Smoker!" Doberman waved at Smoker.

Smoker then withdrew his gaze, walked a few steps to Dauberman, and said with a smile: "Senior Dauberman."

"Haha, thank you for your hard work." Doberman patted Smoker on the shoulder. Smoker shook his head with a hint of emotion and said, "It's all for justice." Then, he looked at Hancock with some curiosity and asked, "Who is this?" He already had some answer in his mind.

Dauberman smiled and said, "Let me introduce you. This is the new talent that the Admiral has chosen. She will be your colleague in the future. Her name is Boa Hancock. She is a captain of the Marine Headquarters and an Amazon. She is the crown prince of Lily and will inherit the Nine Snakes Pirates in the future..."

Smoker's eyes lit up, and then he said, "Nice to meet you, Colonel Hancock, welcome to Hell." Hancock? ? ?

Chapter 217 Diarmuid: Find a way to kill Crocodile!

Smoker has a very good impression of Hancock, his future "colleague".

Of course it’s not because Hancock is beautiful, but because as long as Hancock joins the plan to lurk among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Smoker will no longer be alone.

General Diarmait would be embarrassed if he was the only one to be pitted in the future, right?

Finally, there is someone who can share this pain of hell with him.
