In less than a year since joining the Xi'an line, Tokaf has taken on tens of billions of projects.
It has steadily outperformed other companies.
Then, Sean also stated his various requirements.
Although this project is not large, the restrictions on confidentiality can be said to be stricter than before.
But Sumaner still patted his chest and promised that it would be completed within a month.
After all, it is just a small training base, plus a few very large warehouses.
Compared with the original round-island fortress of the Sixteenth Branch, the construction difficulty is simply not difficult at all.
As for what Sean said about top-secret projects, that's not the case at all.
Isn't that what I did when I helped Sean build shipyards, factories, etc.?
I'm used to this routine.
So, just three days later, the personnel were in place and work started.
At the same time, relying on hundreds of Sandora people, the search for gold in the ruins was initially completed.
Although there will definitely be some that have not been discovered and missed, those are just a small number.
Moreover, the chief has stated that during the reconstruction process of Sandora, if any discoveries are made, they will be sent to Sean immediately.
As for Enel's half-built Ark of Proverbs, it has also been discovered at this moment.
However, there isn't much gold on it.
After all, the internal basic structure of the ship is still made of wood, and the construction progress of Ark Proverbs has not yet reached a stage where a large amount of gold is needed.
This is also the reason why there is so much gold in the ruins of Sandora.
After finishing everything.
Sean left Kaku here to temporarily manage the project and protect the gold until the person in charge was determined.
He took the two women with him, and then used Bruno's ability to return to the warship docked at Gaya Island.
Next, it's time to return to the sixteenth branch.
After all, Crocodile and Enel are still imprisoned on his warship.
That experiment...
Sean couldn't wait and wanted to start as soon as possible.
------
Navy Headquarters.
Malinvando.
Recently, Garp has been a little irritable.
Because a few days ago, Sean made a phone call to himself.
And the content is...
That kid Luffy was caught by Sean again!
Although Sean said that he would not do anything to Luffy and would send him to the Navy Headquarters as promised last time.
But this is the biggest headache for Cap.
Because he knew very well that as long as he returned Luffy to the East China Sea, within a few days, this kid would go to sea and become a pirate again.
Originally, with him here, as long as this kid didn't cause too much trouble, it wouldn't be a problem.
But the key now is, can he escape from the East China Sea?
I'm afraid that Sean will catch him again just a few days after setting sail.
And next time he is caught, will Sean let Luffy go?
Even I don't have the shame to ask Sean to open the back door again.
Do we really have to do what Sean said, imprison this brat in Impel Down and then release him after a few years?
Karp knew this was a good idea.
However, I can't bear to do this...
After all, Luffy is his own grandson, his only biological grandson...
Or else, force him to stay with you and then train him personally?
Karp thought for a moment and suddenly realized that this was a good idea.
Fortunately, Sean didn't know what Garp was thinking.
If I knew, I would definitely complain like crazy.
Are you still here?
Forget it...
I'm afraid your education method will be counterproductive...
------
At the same time, the Chambord Islands.
Taking advantage of the darkness, a figure quietly came ashore and came to a bar.
This bar has a very weird name, Xia Qi's rip-off bar.
This name is so awesome~~
At the same time, people passing by here will shake their heads and leave after seeing this name.
Although some people went in and asked for a glass of wine out of curiosity, the final result was not very good.
However, those who really know the business know that this bar...
It's a very cool place.
As long as you can afford it, you can buy almost any information.
"Hey, isn't this little Shanks?"
"Aunt Xia, long time no see!"
"It's been a long time indeed. It's been two years, right? What would you like to drink?"
"Well, I don't dare to drink your wine..."
He smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Is Xia Qi's wine so easy to drink?
Maybe after a few drinks, he would have to leave Griffin behind before he could leave.
"Okay, the person who wants to see you is over there!"
"Pointing to a corner in the bar, Xia Qi said."
Shanks nodded and walked over.
Yes, he didn't come to see Xia Qi, but Xia Qi contacted him and said someone wanted to see him, so he came here specially.
In the corner, there was a man wearing a green robe, his whole body wrapped tightly.
However, Shanks already knew who it was.
To be precise, he knew it when he was at the door of the bar just now.
This is a person whose strength is no less than his own, and he is also a very famous person.
He does not belong to the navy or pirates, but to the revolutionary army, and he is the leader of the revolutionary army...
The world's most vicious criminal, Monkey D. Dorag.
Shanks and Drago have no direct relationship, but...
But there are complex indirect relationships.
Luffy!
To Drago, Luffy is his biological son.
For Shanks, Luffy is an indispensable part of the plan.
It's not that Shanks thinks Luffy is special or important.
The real key has never been Luffy himself, but the fruit he swallowed.
"Mr. Dorag, do you have any business with me this time?"
After sitting down, Shanks was not as funny as usual, and showed a seriousness that was almost impossible to see in ordinary times.
With his "identity", it is actually not a good thing to come into contact with Dorag.
but...
"I want to talk to you about Luffy."
"Luffy? Didn't I hear before that you hijacked Sean's warship and rescued the people?"
"Yes, but about a week ago, he was captured by Sean again."
...
...
Is it so unreliable?
At this moment, Shanks felt a little regretful. Did he choose the wrong person when he decided to let Luffy carry out his plan?
"So, you want me to save people?"
"Yes, it's not convenient for me to do it again!"
"What do you mean, it's not convenient for you to do it, so you have to let me do it?"
Shanks' eyes narrowed slightly.
The domineering energy in his body began to dissipate, and the light in the entire bar seemed to be darker.
Then...
Click!!!
Because it couldn't bear it, a crack suddenly appeared on the table.
But just then.
"Damage a table, 3 million beli!"
"Sigh...Aunt Xia, this table is only worth two or three thousand Baileys at most, right?"
Upon hearing Xia Qi's words, Shanks' momentum suddenly dropped.
Then he returned to his usual funny face, but Xia Qi didn't follow his example, but slowly took a puff of cigarette, and then...
"Five million Baileys!"
"Okay, please don't add any more, I accept the 5 million Baileys!"
The four dignified emperors suddenly fell into a coward in front of a female bar owner. If this spread, I am afraid that countless people's jaws would be shocked.
After hearing Shanks' words, Xia Qi nodded with satisfaction and then stopped talking.
Shanks' expression became serious again and he looked at Dorag in front of him.
"Mr. Dorag, please forgive me for rejecting your request!"
"Nika..."
In response to Shanks' rejection, Dorag said two words.
Just these two words made him shrink his eyes suddenly and stare at Dolag in disbelief.
Even those five old guys didn't know about this matter. How did he know about it?
"Don't worry, no one knows except me!"
"I won't let you do this favor in vain. In the future, the revolutionary army can provide necessary help for your plan, how about it?"
"Okay, I will find a way to deal with Luffy."
After pondering for a long time, Shanks raised his head.
After hearing Shanks's promise, Drago didn't stay any longer. He stood up, put on his hood, and left.
"Aunt Xia, five million Baileys, I will have it delivered within three days."
"Little Shanks, did you really find that Devil Fruit?"
Maybe others don’t know what the two words Dolag represent.
But Xia Qi knew it.
Hearing this, Shanks nodded slightly.
Xia Qi sighed and wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't.
She could already guess what Shanks wanted to do.
I don’t know what will happen to the world after doing this...
Is it good or bad?
If you are not careful, you might even destroy the world...
"Aunt Xia, I know what you are going to say, but that is what the captain has not completed, and I will inherit his will and complete it."
"Okay, you've grown up, I don't want to advise you, just go away..."
"Then I'm leaving. Aunt Xia, help me say hello to the vice-captain."
"Um!"
------
After Shanks left.
Xia Qi sighed again.
"Two of the three fruits have appeared. No, if the original guess was correct, then all three have appeared."
"so..."
"Will the tragedy of eight hundred years ago happen again?"
"But what's the point? It's just one dragon falling and another rising."
