The Worst Fruit Among Pirates

Dressrosa,

The dock being rebuilt has become a huge construction site, or open-air ship repair yard.

Pirate ships that were intact or covered with traces of fireworks were moored in the port. A large amount of scaffolding was built around them to secure them in the dock. Countless craftsmen were busy repairing and transforming these ships.

Then it turned into Dressler's 'maritime military power'.

After the ships are in place, the days of dragging out Dressrosa's soldiers to fight for a few times and trying to show off their power with just a few pirate ships will be gone forever.

In Rossi's previous life, this practice might have turned into 'making wedding dresses for others', but in this world where human force accounts for most of the country's power, the Don Quixote family is not afraid of soldiers rebelling at all.

What's more:

As time goes by, the citizens of Dressrosa will only become more and more supportive of the Don Quixote family.

"Oh my God, this boat is so tall and big!"

"I heard it's more than 4 meters long. My father works on the ship——"

A group of children were lying on the pile of wood on the dock, looking at the giant ship in front of them with bright eyes. They could not see the edge at all. It was simply a city on the sea.

"No, it should be 4 kilometers!"

"How is that possible? I think it's 4 meters long..."

Just when a group of children who had no concept of measurement units started to 'compare lengths', a patrol officer's loud reminder came from nearby.

"You guys, don't lie down on the wood pile!"

"Wow, it's Lord Cyrus~~"

"Run!"

The children were sliding down the pile of lumber and running away. If they were sent home, they would be spanked!

The outstretched arm of Cyrus, who looked serious, stopped in mid-air, causing Scarlett next to him to cover his mouth and chuckle.

"Cyrus beats people, you are too serious."

"Sorry, Your Highness."

Facing the army commander who apologized seriously to him, the girl next to him shook her head.

"You don't need to apologize to me, and I'm not a princess now."

After speaking, the girl raised the folder and pen in her hand,

"I am now a reporter for 'World Economic News Service' and the editor-in-chief of 'Dressrosa Newspaper'."

Well, this power was given by Rossi.

With a kind-hearted person like Scarlet, as a reporter, at least she won't have to make up bad things just for the sake of 'topic'.By the way, I also let the 'former princess' who doesn't like the fireworks of the world take a good look at the lives of ordinary people.

"temple--"

"Please call me Miss Scarlet,"

"It's Miss Scarlet."

"What do you think of these...the changes in Dressrosa?"

Cyrus looked up at the busy dock. Although the work was hard, the craftsmen all had smiles on their faces.

On the one hand, it is naturally because the Don Quixote family will pay their wages; on the other hand, these damaged pirate ships are irrefutable evidence of the fact that a large number of pirates in this area of ​​​​the sea were cleared by the Don Quixote family.

"Praise to the royal family of Don Quixote!"

Such words gradually began to become popular among people, which made Cyrus feel a little confused.

King Liku is his benefactor, and he will go through fire and water for King Liku.

But...if the people of Dressrosa have 'forgotten' King Riku, will he continue to resist?Who should I swing my sword at?

"I'm confused too,"

Scarlett, the girl next to her, combed her wind-tossed hair back with her little fingers.

"Obviously the Don Quixote family used force to force my father to abdicate, but the people of Dressrosa, under the rule of the Don Quixote family, seem to-"

Live and work more peacefully?

"Actually, I don't hate the Don Quixote family that much. If they can make more people smile, then they must be qualified as kings, but..."

I wonder what my father is thinking?

"Cyrus, let us witness the reign of Don Quixote."

"Yes, Miss... Scarlet."

At this time, Riku, whom both of them thought of at the same time, was reporting to the ruler of the kingdom.

----

Royal Palace of Dressrosa,

"This month, the Kingdom's economy has increased by 21 percentage points compared with last month, which is a good growth."

Putting down the report in his hand, Rossi nodded with satisfaction.Minister Riku next to him hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but say:

"This is because when a large number of pirate groups were wiped out, many new jobs were also created."

"Repair of damaged ships, dismantling and reuse of scraps, etc.,"

"Does not represent Dressrosa's actual economic growth..."

Glancing at Uncle Riku who had something to say, Rossi smiled and shook his head.

"Don't worry, I've said it before, the Don Quixote family doesn't care about Dressrosa's wealth, let alone raise taxes in a hurry."

"Whether it's the family's industry in the North Sea or the three islands in the first half of the New World, they far exceed Dressrosa's economic income."

"Hehehe, that's good, that's good."

After Rossi saw through his 'little thoughts', Minister Riku smiled awkwardly and put away the report.

In any case, since the 'Black King' of the Don Quixote family has personally said that there will be no increase in taxes, the residents of Dressrosa should be able to have a prosperous year.

Riku was afraid of the Don Quixote family's excessive expropriation, and he had no way to stop it...or power.

"A wise man once said,"

Rossi stood up and walked to the window of the office hall, looking down at the lively streets and bustling crowds.

"Human needs are divided into five levels."

"First, physiological needs."

The so-called 'physiological needs' are the most basic requirements of clothing, food, shelter and transportation.It is also the most basic condition required for a person to survive.

"Second, there are security requirements."

This is the need of human beings to ensure their own safety, get rid of the threat of losing property, avoid the invasion of occupational diseases, and not be subject to harsh supervision.

"Third, emotional needs."

The so-called feelings, on the one hand, are the bonds of partners, the harmonious friendship of colleagues, and the love between men and women; on the other hand, they are the belonging to the collective and the country.

"Fourth, the need for respect."

Respect is also divided into two aspects: one is independence and self-confidence; the other is the hope to be respected, trusted and evaluated by others.

"Fifth, the need for self-actualization."

This item is the 'dream' that most powerful people in the world talk about, to maximize their personal abilities and achieve their own ambitions.

"According to the sage, these five levels, from low to high, take on the shape of a pyramid."

"For ordinary people in this world, first and second are the things they value most. After all, if you can't survive, talking about relationships, self-esteem, and dreams is like a penthouse in the sky."

After speaking, Rossi pointed to the bustling crowd outside the window,

"Neither Dover nor I have any 'political skills', but we still have no problem meeting the five major needs of ordinary people."

"Clear the sea area so that they will not die from swords and guns; develop planting, industry, and shipping so that they have more Baileys at their disposal and can find suitable jobs and loved ones in this country."

"If anyone is dissatisfied, they are enemies of the family."

It must be eliminated physically and mentally!

"No, your Excellency is wrong."

In response to Rossi's words, Riku behind him put down his work and then:

Bow and salute.

"Being able to ensure the safety of ordinary people, allowing them to have stable jobs, and then be able to laugh with their families and work hard to do what they want to do... This is the upright 'way of the king'!"

"In this world, there are too many pirates who live by burning, killing, and plundering while shouting "dream" to go to sea, massacring cities and destroying countries at the slightest disagreement."

"If the Don Quixote family can respect the 'five needs' of ordinary people, they will surely become famous kings throughout the ages!"

"Fufufu, the eternal wise king?"

In this world, Dover walked in.

"I don't care, - be glad you met Rosie."

Without Rossi, with Dover's character, he would naturally maintain his rule with absolute high pressure.

"Rossi, Torebol is calling."

After saying that, Dover raised the phone bug in his hand.

"The 'Sea Train' experimental machine has been built."

? !

"So fast···"

Dover came here just to tell Rossi the news, and was not interested in the 'way of the king'.After all, whether this world can sit firmly on the throne depends on neither the people's support nor its reputation.

But strength!

In the face of absolute strength, everything is false and powerless wailing.

"Very good, there won't be any unsighted guys who dare to cause trouble in this sea area in a short time."

"Let's go back to the Seven Waters Capital and use the 'Sea Train' to connect the forces under our command. In this case-"

After connecting Dou Beast Island, Food Island, and Carnival Island, the three islands are almost equal to a medium-sized country.At the same time, convenient transportation will bring rapid development, and a large amount of money will flow into the pockets of the Don Quixote family.

"That plan can start in advance."

Artificial devil fruit plan!

The Dontata tribe in Dressrosa, Dr. Ironsdeno, who once worked with Vegapunk, is now ready.As long as a large amount of artificial Devil Fruit can be produced, it can provide the Don Quixote family with a large amount of middle-level power.

Don't underestimate the artificial Devil Fruit. Although its appearance is a bit deceiving, the powerful physique it brings is real.

In the country of Wano in the future, if there were no "Jade Emperor" whose ability to make the artificial ability users turn against each other collectively, even five hundred elite "Givers" with rough skin and thick flesh and mastered the armed domineering power would be able to defeat the Straw Hats. Tired to death!

"Let's go back to the Capital of Seven Waters."

"Fufufu, I knew you would want to see the finished product immediately..."

When entering the new world, Rossi and others took the road to Fish-Man Island.But if you go back to the first half of the New World, you can directly take the convenient "Red Earth Continent".

Otherwise, why would Rosie get the name "Shichibukai"!

It is just to make it easier to travel between the two sections of the sea. After all, in a place like the [-]-meter-deep sea, a capable person can only walk once.Wandering in the sea every day, I either feel that my life is long or I feel that my destiny is destined.

"By the way, let Dr. Tiesdeno take a look at that Metal Devil Rex. If it can be repaired, it will be a good combat power."

As the trump card of the 3-million-strong pirate, the several hundred meters long Metal Devil Rex is naturally quite destructive.

It's a pity that guy was unlucky. He met Dover, who can create powerful thunder and lightning, and Rossi, a great swordsman who can kill with one strike. In addition, Tani and Jinbe blocked the sky and sea, and couldn't even escape. He died. It can be said to be extremely frustrating.

"Leave this to Vergo and Diamanti."

"When we take over the family members from the Capital of Seven Waters, we will be considered the real Don Quixote family."
