The first half of the Grand Line, Paradise.

On the route closest to the edge of the windless zone and adjacent to the East China Sea.

A warship has just arrived here through the calm zone.

"Li Yan, this speed is much faster than my warship!"

"That's for sure. After all, when your warship uses the windless propulsion system, it can only reach a speed of about 5 knots, while my ship uses steam as power and can reach a propulsion speed of 12-13 knots!"

"No, you have to help me refit my warship when I get back!"

"I don't care about this. Just ask Barry directly. He is the head of Carrera's Donghai Branch and the vice president of Carrera Company!"

"You mean that kid?"

Looking at the direction of Li Yan's finger, Taotu was a little confused.

No matter how you look at it, he is just a cute kid of eleven or twelve years old, the vice president of Carrera, the most awesome shipbuilding company in the world?

Are you kidding me?

Knowing that Taotu would have such a reaction, Li Yan directly whispered in his ear without knowing what he was talking about, but the next moment, Taotu was laughing so hard that he couldn't bend his head.

"Hahahahaha, this is too funny. Although I have heard of Ain and know his ability, but..."

"Besides, a shameless and indecent woman?"

Peach Rabbit is really happy, that Barry is really a talent.

And Ain's method of punishment is also very interesting.

"Major General Li Yan, please don't tell anyone about everything!"

"Also, Lieutenant General Motutu, please pay attention to your image. The candidate for general is the face of the navy!"

Looking at Li Yan and Tao Tu from the side, Ain was very unhappy. He didn't care that the two men had higher military ranks than him and directly scolded them.

"Also, Lieutenant General Taotu, I'm afraid it won't be easy for you to talk to Barry about refitting warships!"

As he said that, Ain's eyes looked pointedly at Peach Rabbit's lower body.

Good guy, when Li Yan followed Ain's eyes, he realized that the two women were wearing exactly the same short pants. Even Li Yan doubted whether the ones you two were wearing were the same style.

The most important thing is that both of them have obvious marks on the left and right thighs.

One is a huge cross scar, and the other is a spider tattoo, both in similar locations.

If Peach Rabbit seeks out Barry, I'm afraid...

"You, you, you, Lieutenant General, how can you be so shameless? You are just as dishonest as Ain!"

Bang...

However, just when Li Yan thought of this and was about to stop Taotu, it was already too late.

Fortunately, almost the entire warship is made of Adam's wood. The quality is really good. Barry, who was blown away by Peach Rabbit's punch and hit the deck, did not leave a single crack on the floor of the deck.

.

Just when Li Yan secretly sighed that the quality of Adam's wood was so good, Taotu was also surprised.

"You don't know how to use Adam's wood on this deck, right?"

"Didn't I just say that my boat is made of Adam's wood!"

"I thought it was just the keel and other important parts. Who knew your entire ship was made of Adam's wood? How much did it cost?"

"I haven't thought about it, but it seems that all the extra money from last time has been used up!"

hiss...

Although Li Yan was just talking nonsense, Taotu was also shocked when he heard it. That means at least one billion beli, or even hundreds of millions?

Is this the same Li Yan who called himself a rich woman more than a month ago and asked if he was missing pendants on his thighs?

No, I have to work hard to catch the pirates, and then I have to build a warship that is completely Adamantine!

"Colonel, pirate ships have been spotted ahead, and there are a lot of them!"

"Oh, we have been discovered now. Our alertness is much higher than that of Demon Valley Town!"

Just when Taotu was planning how to build a warship like this, a sailor on the warship's observation deck held a telescope, pointed forward and shouted loudly.

"Absolutely. Mogu Town is just a small town on Gaya Island. How many pirates can there be?"

"But Horqin Island is different. It can almost be called a pirate city. The entire island is full of pirates. There are usually no less than 20 pirate groups gathered here at the same time!"

"How about it, do you want my help? Just give me a free modification of the warship!"

Peach Rabbit said with a smile.

This kind of pirate force is almost the same as the pirate alliance when the G8 branch was attacked last time. The last time, after taking advantage of the terrain to trick the pirates in, they used the fortress artillery to concentrate fire and bombarded them, killing most of them first.

Coupled with the fact that he took action, he left them all behind.

But this time, there is no terrain advantage. If he doesn't take action, it will be difficult even for Li Yan, right?

Taotu, who was thinking this way, immediately decided to take advantage of Li Yan.

Although it is unrealistic to ask Li Yan to provide Adam Baomu, but under the bargaining price, it should be possible to just modify the steam power, right?

However...

"No, we are here to test a new type of warship this time. Gion, you can just watch from the sidelines!"

"Usopp, direct the naval gun attack!"

Li Yan flicked his cloak coolly and shouted to Usopp.

Since Larnas wanted to stay in the branch to assist Thor in training new recruits, he did not come with him this time, and all the firing command of the naval gun was handed over to Usopp.

"Yes, Colonel!"

"Strike across the warship, the front and rear main guns and the port side secondary guns began to load ammunition. All heavy machine gun operators were immediately in place. The rest used the ship's side as cover and loaded their bullets!"

Standing on the deck, Usopp was high-spirited and waving his hands to command, looking like a vice admiral or even a general.

even...

Even the nose seems to have grown a full centimeter longer.

Seeing this scene, Luffy and Bucky were filled with envy.

Let this guy pretend again!

Damn it, I hate naval battles!

For Luffy, who likes to get physical, naval battles are the most boring!

As for Nokigao, she stood there with an indifferent expression. After all, if she wanted to, there was no need for a warship to fire. She could just rely on the Thunder Fruit to fly over, and then use a big move, and it was basically over.

However, he knew that this was a test of a new warship and it was not appropriate to do it himself.

For a time, all the sailors on the battleship became busy.

In less than a minute, all attack positions are ready!

At this moment, the sailors on the observation deck finally confirmed all the incoming pirates.

“18 kilometers away!”

"There are 25 pirate ships in total, and the leader is..."

"The captain of the Blood Wolf Pirates has a bounty of 256 million Baileys!"

hiss...

Hearing the lookout's shout, many people took a deep breath.

Good guys, there are more than 20 pirate groups, including the Blood Wolf Pirates...

Speaking of which, after excluding Talos, who was previously destroyed by Li Yan, this year's rising pirate stars only have 8 people left, and the only one among them with a bounty of more than 200 million Baileys is the blood wolf Garfield.

.

This is not the most critical thing. The key thing is that four of the remaining eight supernovae are in the Blood Wolf Pirates.

In addition to Garfield himself, there are three pirates with a bounty of over 100 million, which is simply worse than the Straw Hat Pirates a year and a half later in the original work.

After all, in the first half of the protagonist group, there were only two people who had exceeded 100 million.

"Usopp, at a distance of ten kilometers, what's your hit rate?"

"Report to Colonel, the hit rate should be only 3% at most for ten kilometers!"

"3%? It's already pretty good. Then instead of testing ten kilometers away, let's bring them as close as five kilometers before firing. Finally, after the pirates escape, let them run for a while, and then wait until they escape ten kilometers away. We'll

Let’s conduct a test of long-distance artillery fire!”

"Yes, Colonel!"

hiss...

Listening to the conversation between the two, Taotu was also secretly surprised.

It seemed that he didn't pay much attention to the more than 20 pirate groups in front of him, plus the four supernovas of this year.

They actually started discussing...
