Pirate's Divergence

Chapter 69 Upside Down Mountain Fortress
Establishing a stronghold on the inverted mountain, a strategic location leading to the great sea route from the four seas, has always been the object of wrangling between the navy and the world government.

The terrain of Upside Down Mountain is so steep that it can almost be said that it is difficult to establish a stronghold on it.

The materials needed for the construction of the stronghold, the food needed for stationing the navy, and the weapons and ammunition in the stronghold.

Regardless of the supply, even the initial stage of construction is a big problem. It can be said that it is precisely because of this that the World Government has not made up its mind to build a fortress on the Upside Down Mountain for a long time.

Not only does it require a lot of manpower, but it also costs a lot of money.

Inside the navy, it was unanimously agreed that a stronghold could be established on it, and that's why Warring States ran back and forth at Wulaoxing for this matter, applying for approval of this proposal.

Of course, Wulaoxing also agrees with this proposal in principle, but it is quite complicated because of the huge cost and various related things.

Therefore, the proposal was always blocked on the grounds of taking a long-term view.

It wasn't until the crew of One Piece Roger, one of the Four Emperors' red-haired friends at the same time, and the overlord of the East China Sea "Pirate Admiral" Baki led a huge fleet into the great route, that this matter was brought up again by the Warring States Period.

Bucky, who has multiple special background identities, immediately became the target of the navy's attention. Another Roger's crew led a group into the great route, which would only make the entire great route even more chaotic.

Although the strength of Baki, who offered a reward of 5000 million Berry, seems to be the same, the second and third members of the pirate group have considerable potential and are loyal to Baki.

In addition to Bucky's relationship with Roger and Red Hair, he already has an innate influence. If Bucky is given a little time to develop, then there may be another monster on the great route.

The navy hates pirates deeply. As the rookies from the four seas entered the great route through the Upside Down Mountain, they gradually became veterans and great pirates, bringing chaos to the entire great route.

Under the joint name of the three generals and the senior navy generals, Sengoku brought the proposal to the world government again, and applied to the Five Old Stars to establish a stronghold in Reversing Mountain.

At the same time, Warring States also adopted Staff Officer Crane's advice and suggested: "If you are worried about manpower, there is no need for it. All the personnel will be sent by our navy."

Therefore, Wu Laoxing also reluctantly agreed, the world government allocated special funds, and the navy sent manpower to reverse the mountain at the entrance of the great route to establish a naval stronghold to completely curb the pirates of the great route to get fresh blood.

And a naval stronghold called "Inverted Mountain Fortress" officially broke ground.

The navy attaches great importance to this fortress that has just begun to lay its foundations, and even transferred Lieutenant Admiral Gumir of the G2 branch to Upside Down Mountain to be responsible for the construction of the Upside Down Mountain Fortress and manage the entire Upside Down Mountain Fortress.

It can be said that the establishment of the Inverted Mountain Fortress, which has just broken ground, was mainly motivated by the fact that Bucky, who became the overlord of the East China Sea, entered the Great Route from the East China Sea.

On the Upside Down Mountain, the further up you go, the thinner the fog becomes.

The top of the mountain has broken through the sky, and the vision has become clearer.

At this time, Julian and Usopp were lying behind the red rock, holding up the binoculars, watching the rushing water rushing up to the top.

The navy is using various tools to control the Mei Li to slowly drive to the simple dock near the fortress on the top of the mountain.

On the edge of the waterway, a team of marines carried the four people who had passed out and walked towards the top of the mountain.

It's not that Julian didn't want to rescue the four people at this time, but that in this naval squad, the leader turned out to be a major general, accompanied by a colonel and three lieutenant colonels.

This is an officer at the rank of admiral of the navy. Such a powerful opponent is not something that Julian and Usopp can easily deal with.

Usopp patted Julian, held up the binoculars, pointed at the top of the mountain and exclaimed in a low voice: "Julian, look at the top of the mountain!"

Julian looked around, and saw a huge construction site on the top of the mountain. The marines were smiling, sweating profusely, taking turns with hammers and chisels, chiseling the ground one by one, giving stones one by one. Chisel down, dig out the foundation.

The chiseled stone was directly transported to the craftsman's house next to it, and after some carving and grinding, it became a stone worthy of construction.

Due to the limitation of construction difficulty, the construction of the reverse mountain fortress, the source of materials is to use local materials besides the stones transported from the cargo ships of the waterways of the four seas.

And next to this construction site, there is a huge naval barracks.

Julian was stunned: "What are these guys from the navy doing in Reversing Mountain? Digging the foundation, are they building a castle?"

However, seeing the navy's sudden attention to Reversing Mountain, Julian couldn't help but think of a terrible possibility, and his eyes widened: "The navy is probably going to build a mountaintop fortress on Reversing Mountain?"

Julian's eyes continued to return to Sauron and the others. At this moment, the escorting marines all stood up and saluted the person in front of them.

Julian saw the man clearly through the binoculars and exclaimed, "Vice Admiral!!!"

The shape of this vice admiral is quite special, very recognizable.

Julian searched in his mind, and soon found the information of the vice admiral.

Lieutenant Admiral Gumir of the G2 branch of the Navy, in the original book, is always in the military law conference, drinking a cup of coffee.

But I think the coffee in the Navy G2 branch is very bitter. Later, Ace gave him a letter written by the daughter of the Navy chef couple, Moda, who suggested that they drink milk instead. After that, the G2 Navy Fortress coffee became good. Drinking coffee with milk.

Julian looked at the construction site on the top of the mountain again, and murmured: "I didn't expect this guy to be transferred from G2 to Reversing Mountain. It seems that the navy has made up its mind to take root in Reversing Mountain."

It didn't take long for the four of Sauron to be brought back to the prison in the temporary camp by the navy. The men and women were separated and locked up. Usopp panicked at this moment: "Yu... Julian, what should we do now, everyone? They were all caught."

With a dejected look on his face, Usopp started his own journey full of ambition. Who would have thought that he would encounter huge troubles at the very beginning.

Julian also rubbed his forehead, suffering from a headache.

The combat power of the Reverse Mountain Navy is simply not something Julian can handle now. Just one lieutenant colonel can make Julian eat a pot, not to mention the colonel and major general.

Julian glanced at Usopp and arranged: "It seems that we can only sneak into the interior of the navy and rescue the four of them and the Meili secretly."

Usopp swallowed, as if I couldn't do it, I was going to die: "Dive...into...the interior of the navy?"
