Pirate stone stone fruit

Returning to Xiangong City, he sat alone on the throne of the palace. He also felt a little tired after running around for the past two days, not physically, but mentally.

At this time, the butler personally brought a cup of hot tea and drank it in one sip. A sweet feeling flowed through his throat, and Cassius regained his energy.

"Butler, I haven't been in Xiangong City recently. I have troubled you to handle all the big and small things. Thank you for your hard work."

"I am very honored to be able to share your worries with you. It is also my blessing to see you come to this point. The old king will definitely be very pleased that he is alive in heaven."

Looking at the butler who is over 70 years old, if he were younger, Cassius would definitely give him a powerful Devil Fruit.

There are many Devil Fruits in this world that can temporarily change the age. In the original novel, Ain, a subordinate of General Zefa, has the ability to regress the fruit. Using this ability once can restore a person's age to 12 years ago.

The age fruit of Joali Poni, one of the eleven supernovas of the Evil Era, can also turn people back into children or old people.

There is also a cadre under Doflamingo who has a childlike fruit, which can also turn people into puppet shapes to maintain their youth.

However, the person or object affected will return to its original state as the person with the ability loses consciousness.

The only thing that can truly achieve immortality is the fruit of the operation, but now that Luo has become his subordinate, performing this operation will probably cost his life, and in the end the gain will not be worth the loss.

If there is really no other way, I can only try to capture Ain or Qiao Aliboni later.

"Butler, don't work too hard and take care of yourself. Only with a good body can I let you do more things."

Cassius joked to the butler that he would only look so relaxed in front of the person who had been with him since childhood.

"You don't have to worry about my health. I've been pampered all these years. I only help with these things occasionally. It's not too hard. Besides, I also exercise regularly now and my appetite is very good every day."

The butler also smiled and replied.

"The fruit of retrogression, Ain,"

After the butler retired and Cassius was muttering alone, a soldier came to report,

"Your Majesty the King, Ren from the Mechanical Firearms Department would like to see you,"

"Let him in,"

When Ren came to the front of the palace, Cassius skipped the complicated etiquette and asked,

"Did you encounter any problems with research and development when you came here this time?"

Ren said excitedly,

"Your Majesty the King, we have made a major breakthrough in the task of improving firearms that you assigned us. The AK-47 rifle you named has been built, and the sniper rifle has been basically transformed."

Cassius was also overjoyed after hearing Ren's report.

"Have you brought the samples?"

"Bring it and leave it outside."

Because weapons were not allowed in the palace, Renn placed all the guns he brought outside.

After asking the soldiers to get their guns, Renne and Cassius came to the training ground behind the palace.

"Your Majesty, please take a look. This is a rifle with a length of 870 mm, a barrel of 415 mm, and a weight of 5 kg. It has an ammunition capacity of 28 rounds and an effective range of 250 meters."

After hearing this, Cassius frowned slightly at first, and then felt relieved.

Because in my impression, the ak47 in the previous life was 0.5 kilogram lighter than the one I hold now, and its effective range could reach 300 meters, and its ammunition capacity also reached 30 rounds.

But it’s relieved to think that this is a pirate world, and it’s only the first generation, and it can still be improved.

Ren was also a little worried when he saw Cassius's expression. He thought he was dissatisfied with the weapons in front of him, so he quickly continued:

"Not only that, Your Majesty, the butt of this gun is also made of high-quality wood. It is very stable and comfortable. It is not afraid of wind, sun, rain, and can face all kinds of harsh environments. "

Cassius looked at the polished butt of the gun again.

"I heard what you said makes perfect sense. I really want to give it a try."

As he spoke, Cassius loaded the magazine full of bullets. The bullets also used 7.62x39mm bullets. The overall structure of this gun was similar to that of the previous life.

Pulling the change lever, Cassius aimed the gun at a rock 200 meters away with a less than standard gun grip.

"chug chug..."

As the trigger was pulled, dense bullets shot forward at a speed of 600/s. However, because Cassius's shooting talent was so poor, even if he locked the target with domineering power, he only hit a few shots.

The stones hit by his bullets showed holes, and some even penetrated and broke the surface of the stone.

After trying the bullets in two magazines, Cassius pulled the change lever to change to single-shot shooting mode. This time, the accuracy was much higher.

Touching the slightly warm barrel, Cassius threw the gun to the soldiers aside to let the soldiers experience it for themselves, then turned to Ren and asked:

"How much does this gun cost?"

"Well, it's almost [-] Baileys, and the firearms made at this price are already high-quality."

One thousand Baileys in this world is equivalent to the purchasing power of 55 RMB in the previous life. This makes the gun cost about 4000 and more than [-] yuan.

Cassius continued,

“Can this type of firearm be manufactured in large quantities?”

"Yes, Your Majesty, as long as we can provide steel and various mineral resources, as well as craftsmen who make firearms, mass production is only a matter of time."

"Well, I will take this issue seriously. You only need to be responsible for manufacturing firearms. Don't forget to continue to develop and improve more advanced models."

"Yes, I will definitely not disappoint His Majesty the King."

Ren said with a military salute on the spot.

"By the way, didn't you say that the sniper rifle has been basically improved? Did you encounter any problems?"

"It's not that we encountered any problems. This sniper rifle is relatively simple to make. It's just that the range failed to meet His Majesty's requirements."

"Oh?"

As he spoke, Cassius took a four-kilogram sniper rifle from Ren's hand that was almost exactly the same as what he remembered. It was the Mauser 98k that was widely used during World War II in his previous life.

This time he quickly loaded the bullet, aimed in the distance and fired directly.

In Cassius's perception, the bullet was moving rapidly at a speed of more than 700 meters per second, and the bullet exhausted itself and fell to the ground at about 1800 meters.

There is indeed a slight gap in the range, but it is not big. I tried it again and found that the effective range is also about 800 meters.

Some of the world's top snipers can hit targets at invisible ranges. For example, Van Oka, who later joined the Blackbeard Pirates, showed his ability in this area.

But it cannot be said that it has no advantages. At least the 98k sniper rifle is more suitable for more people, and its range and firing rate are not bad, so it will be very popular.

"This gun must also be mass-produced and equipped with Achilles' army first. I will increase investment in resources."

Cassius thought about Achilles in the future. He would bring three guns with him when he went out, one AK, one 98K and one... Well, it makes me feel happy to think about it anyway.

"You did a great job this time. Go to the butler to receive your reward later."

Cassius patted Ren on the shoulder. It seemed that it was time to invite some people to the opening of Las Vegas.
