Looking at Taotu who was smiling in front of him, Li Yan was thinking about the alarm in his mind.

This woman...

He must be planning something bad again!

However, Taotu was indeed right about one thing. If she hadn't given up the command to him, his military merit would definitely not be enough to be promoted to major general, nor would it be enough for the Eighteenth Branch to meet the requirements for a second-class branch.

Forget it, I owe you a favor after all. As long as it's not too deceptive, I'll admit it...

"Tell me, what do you want?"

"Help me install a gravity training room on my warship!"

"impossible!"

Without even thinking about it, Li Yan refused sternly.

Just kidding, some things can be exposed, but some things can't.

The gravity training room, something that is beyond the normal scope of technology in the pirate world, if it is exposed to outsiders, you will definitely be in trouble later.

However, when Li Yan refused, Taotu didn't have much reaction, as if he had expected such a result.

"Then give me the priority to use the new weapons of your 18th branch in the future!"

Priority for new weapons?

This is not impossible, after all, things like guns and cannons are intended to be public.

And speaking of new weapons, the next ones should be the machine guns, assault rifles and sniper rifles that Levine is researching, and then there are the rifled guns.

It's not a big problem to equip Taotu with these things first. Besides, after nine months, she will be all her own. This is just a matter of arming her subordinates in advance.

"Okay, I agree to this!"

------

Three days later.

If it weren't for Taotu's staring, Li Yan would have gotten out of bed and moved around a long time ago. Lying in bed these days has really suffocated him to death.

After all, since I arrived at the 18th branch, I have not stopped exercising for a day. To suddenly lie down for three days is really uncomfortable.

There are still seven days until the conferment ceremony of the headquarters. During these seven days, Li Yan is going to do something.

The first thing to do is to go to the Capital of Seven Rivers, recruit some boatmen and bring them back to the Eighteenth Branch.

"What, you are going to the Capital of Seven Waters now? Are you feeling well?"

"Lieutenant General Gion, I'm not going to fight, I'm just going to find boatmen for the Eighteenth Branch. Besides, I'm about 70% better now, so even if it's a battle, it won't be a big problem."

Seeing Taotu's exaggerated appearance of preparing to step forward to check his body, Li Yan sighed helplessly and then said.

I don’t know what’s going on with this woman recently, so she’s keeping such a close eye on her.

Could it be that after calling herself sister a few times, she really regards herself as a younger brother?

"Well, it just so happens that I haven't been to the Capital of Seven Waters for a long time, so I'll just treat it as a vacation with you!"

Staring at Li Yan and pondering for a moment, Taotu said.

Okay, just take it as a vacation. Anyway, you only need to go to the Capital of Seven Waters...

It takes one day to set off from the G8 branch to the Seven Waters Capital, and then three days to set off from the Seven Waters Capital to Marineland.

In other words, I have almost three days to find a boatman, which is more than enough time.

After seeing Taotu agree, Li Yan also started to make plans.

"However, if you want to find excellent boatmen there, it won't be easy!"

"Huh? How do you say it?"

Hearing this, Li Yan became interested. After all, it was still more than a year before the plot started, and some information was not available in the original work.

"There used to be seven shipyards in the Seven Waters Capital, and all the skilled shipwrights were divided up by these seven shipyards. But more than a year ago, the current mayor of the Seven Waters Capital, Esbagu, annexed

He destroyed all the shipyards and established the Carrera Company!"

"Aisbagu has a very high prestige in the Capital of Seven Waters, and he is also known as a genius shipbuilder. Almost all shipwrights regard him as their idol!"

"Then, all the excellent shipwrights are already concentrated in Carrera Company. Coupled with the idol effect, it will be very difficult for you to poach people!"

That's it?

After hearing what Taotu said, Li Yan was a little disappointed. He thought he could have some information that was not in the original work.

As for these things, he, who is familiar with the plot of One Piece, naturally knows.

However, what Taotu said the next moment surprised Li Yan.

"Another thing to say, you just need to know it yourself after hearing it, and you can't reveal it to anyone else!"

"According to the information from Sister He, several people from the CP organization lurked into the Capital of Seven Waters about three years ago, and they are still lurking today."

"Although I don't know what their purpose is, it seems that they are all targeting Espagu."

"So don't cause any trouble when the time comes. Although the Navy is not afraid of the CP organization, after all, they are directly affiliated with Marigio, so it will be more troublesome!"

Peach Rabbit said seriously.

After all, they have been lurking for so many years, so it is definitely not a small task. If something happens to Li Yan and disrupts their operations, things will be more troublesome.

"Don't worry, I'm measured!"

Isn't it CP9? Who are they, what positions are they lurking in, and what tasks are they performing...

Is there anyone who knows better than me?

However, Li Yan was quite surprised that the navy discovered it so early. The naval intelligence department managed by Lieutenant General He was indeed very good.

And Taotu can tell him this, and he trusts himself very much!

As for what he would do then, Li Yan already had a plan in mind. He could just use his familiarity with the plot of the Pirate World to negotiate a deal with Espagu.

believe...

He won't refuse this deal!

------

The next afternoon.

Peach Rabbit's super warship has docked at the port of the Seven Rivers Capital.

Even though I had seen the appearance of the Seven Waters City in my previous life, it was a cartoon after all, and it was far less shocking than the real environment I saw now. In my previous life, it could definitely be called the City of Miracles.

The entire city is like a super giant and complex fountain, and this fountain is formed naturally. It is just the Seven Waters City that was artificially built, and the falling water is continuously directed to the city through various mechanisms and channels.

outside the city.

If you don't really stand in front of this city, you will never be able to experience this shock.

"Let's go, I'll rent a bleu first!"

After stepping off the warship, Taotu took the initiative to transform into a tour guide. Judging from the expression on her face, she seemed to be in a particularly good mood.

A few minutes later, the two arrived at the Blu rental point not far from the Seven Waters.

After all, this is not a rare item in the Capital of Seven Waters, and the rental fee is very cheap. A blue can carry a two-person boat, and the rental fee is only 1,000 beli, and there is no time limit...

Simply!

"Let's go take a walk and relax first?"

When Blue took the two of them off, Taotu, who was sitting in the back row, asked. For some reason, Li Yan even felt a hint of expectation in her voice?

Okay, maybe it's my own misunderstanding.

"No, go directly to the No. 1 Dockyard to find Espagu to do business!"

He shook his head, shook the illusion out of his mind, and then said.

However, when Li Yan said this, it seemed that the surrounding temperature dropped several degrees instantly, and even all the hairs on his back stood up instantly, as if...

Behind him was a terrifying giant beast, staring directly at him.
Chapter completed!
