The first half of the Grand Route, the Kingdom of the Drum.
[Dong dong dong]
Gulewa heard a heavy knock on the door and moved her eyes away from the treatment report on the patient with platinum lead disease on the table.
"come in."
"Mother Gureva."
The person who came was none other than Zefa, a former navy admiral who had just arrived here a few days ago but had already started receiving treatment. The former looked at the clock hanging on the wall next to him and looked at him in confusion.
"It seems it's not time for daily check-ups yet? Or is your asthma attacking again?"
"No, since I took the medicine you gave me, my breathing has not been uncomfortable in the past few days." Zefa sat on the chair opposite the desk and shook his head with a smile.
"The reason why I came here is to tell you that when King Arnold goes to Mariegioa in a few days, I want to personally be responsible for escorting him. This trip will take more than half a month, so I came to tell you
Say."
Zefa's tone was full of respect for the doctor Gureva, partly because of her superb medical skills.
The doctor at his headquarters had previously said that his asthma could not be cured, but when he came here, he said that it could be cured, but that it would only take three months of treatment, and the effect in the past few days was indeed good.
Being asked not to drink or smoke is too difficult.
The second reason is that because the other party is one hundred and fifteen years old, he is an absolute elder. For this reason, he does not even use the term "old man" to call himself.
Doctor Gulewa asked in confusion: "Why do you need to personally escort me? Doctor, I remember the previous World Conference. The Navy Headquarters would send a warship and a general. To be honest, I don't really want you to have a long middle section."
It takes up to half a month of treatment, which will prolong your subsequent treatment time.”
"In order to thank you for your kindness in treating illnesses, I was thinking of doing something to repay you a little, and it happened that King Arnold was going to attend the World Conference, so I could do something for the Drum Kingdom." Zefa said with a smile.
It’s just that the doctor Gulewa didn’t appreciate it after hearing this, and said unceremoniously: “Thank you doctor, what does it have to do with that little guy Arnold? I’m not familiar with him!”
"And you have already paid the full amount of medical expenses. You don't owe me anything, and I don't need you to give me anything in return. But you are my patient now, so you must follow my arrangements!"
"So I don't agree with your report. The patient's first task is to obey the doctor and cure the disease!"
She didn't care about Zefa's identity at all, but simply regarded him as an ordinary patient from a doctor's perspective, which embarrassed the originally kind-hearted Zefa.
"Okay, since you are all here, let's start today's examination in advance so that we can go back to train your students as soon as possible." Doctor Gulewa stood up.
"Hahaha, there's no rush. Those boys are swimming around the island in the winter. They won't be able to finish swimming in a few hours!" Zefa smiled generously, not angry at all.
"The doctor's wife told you before that your asthma can only be relieved with medication. The medicine you are taking now targets the chronic inflammation of the airways and also plays a warming and nourishing role. You will need an operation later to cure it."
"Yes, yes, I leave my illness to you. Everything is at your discretion!"
...
Fishman Island, inside Dragon Palace City.
"Your Majesty, when are we leaving for Mariegioa?"
Princess Otohime, who has beautiful blond hair, is both nervous and looking forward to it. After all, she is going to give a speech in front of fifty kings, and it may be related to whether the issue can be passed.
The huge King Neptune, whose face was covered with orange-red hair, lowered his head and explained in a gentle tone: "We are the closest to the ground, so there is no need to go in advance. You just need to go there on the day of the World Conference. Your speech is prepared
how's it going?"
It is strange to say that as the husband of Princess Otohime and even the king of Fishman Island, he was refused by the latter to listen to the speech in advance.
Princess Otohime's reason is that she wants to pour all her enthusiasm into this speech so that the effect of the speech can be maximized, so she cannot 'rehearse' in advance.
Valley
"No problem, I will definitely do my best for the future of the fishmen!" Princess Otohime puffed out her chest and looked at King Neptune firmly.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then."
"yes!"
At the same time, many kings with seats in the world conference, such as the Kingdom of Goa in the East Sea, the Kingdom of Illusia in the West Sea, the Kingdom of Flowers, the Kingdom of Yanad in the South Sea, and the Kingdom of Germa in the North Sea, were sent by the Navy Headquarters.
After the warships arrived, they gathered in the direction of Dingfeng Mountain on their own royal ships with a small number of escorts.
The kings in the first half and second half of the Grand Line were a little more relaxed and did not need to set off so many days in advance, but they could already feel that this year's World Conference was unusual.
The movements of the world government this year are really too eye-catching.
It has long aroused many people's worries, vigilance and expectations. At this moment, all the undercurrents or bright waves are rushing towards Marie Joa, which is located on the top of the Red Earth Continent and is called the Holy Land by the world!
In the Pongol Castle, the originator of all this chaos was rare, not enjoying the game on the court, but sitting alone in the tree house between the moon, staring at the useless sky with a serious expression.
This is what it looks like from an outsider's perspective.
But as far as Im is concerned, in front of him are lines of explanatory text spread across a translucent background full of stars. This is the latest reminder he just woke up this morning.
Compared to the previous introduction, this explanation looks more like a complete version.
However, judging from the date displayed, it appeared on the second day after he activated the first star gate. However, the star chart did not have any prompt sound, which caused him to look at it a few days later.
This also reminds Im that it is best to look at the star chart every day in the future, otherwise it will be silent and it will be easy to ignore certain information.
"In addition to gaining the authority to open a small stargate to a random planet every year, every third year, in addition to the small stargates obtained as usual, one of the three small stargates can be upgraded to a medium stargate."
"In addition to getting a small stargate as usual in the tenth year, you can also upgrade one of the three medium-sized stargates to a large stargate."
"The medium-sized star gate is three hundred meters high and two hundred meters wide, and the large star gate is three thousand meters high and two thousand meters wide..."
Seeing this, Im could tell. Isn't this a naked attempt to lure him into launching a large-scale interstellar invasion?
He had previously felt that the small stargate, which was three meters high and two meters wide, was too small. It would take a long time for a large force to pass through it, and large vehicles, warships, etc. could not enter at all.
But this medium-sized star gate is completely different. Even giants and small Neptunes can easily enter.
In addition, here is a detailed explanation of his specific control over the Star Gate.
He can freely adjust the star gate switch, freely adjust the star gate position, and can freely observe the surroundings of the star gate. The observation range depends on the star gate level.
A small star gate has a radius of 100 meters, a medium star gate has a radius of 1,000 meters, and a large star gate has a radius of 10,000 meters.
Just use your thoughts to operate.
However, when adjusting the star gate, he could only adjust it from one side.
For example, he was on Starfish (pirate planet), and then opened the star gate on the court below, but in the opposite world, the star gate appeared on the sea.
If you want to move the stargate to the Navy Headquarters, you only need to have its concept, location and specific pictures in your mind, and then you can directly drop the stargate there.
However, the location of the world opposite the Star Gate is still on the sea. If he wants to move to a place outside the observation range, he needs to personally pass through the Star Gate to another world, and then adjust the position of the Star Gate in that world.
"And this core star gate!"
Im is most interested in this. Although this core star gate can only appear near where he is, he can freely enter and exit other star gates that have been opened through it. He does not need to wait for more star gates to become available like others.
Whichever world you want to go to, you must find the corresponding star gate.
"This is convenient, otherwise if there are too many people in the future, we will have to queue up..." As soon as he said this, he immediately amused himself.
