Ultimate Blade Shadow in One Piece Navy

Chapter 476 What to do about drought?Solution with water

"Ah la la~ A lieutenant general's adjutant actually wants to command me?"

Putting down the phone, Aoki looked confused. He didn't expect Nurkic to contact him and assign him such a task.

For such a task assigned to him by the lieutenant general and his adjutant, Qingzhi thought about it and decided to carry it out. After all, who would let him take half of the blame for this situation?

However, asking himself to cooperate with Akainu's detachment to perform tasks was beyond Aokiji's expectations, and it was also the reason for his inner resistance at this time. After all, his relationship with Akainu was not really good.

Because in Akainu's eyes, Aokiji is an unsteady and wavering navy, which is a very insulting view for a naval admiral.

The two of them are opposites in terms of ability, character, and understanding of justice. Naturally, the relationship between the two is difficult to get better. Of course, for the sake of justice, the two still cooperate very well in official matters.

However, what the adjutant meant this time was to let him directly contact Akainu's detachment, and not to let Akainu know about it and interfere with it.

This is very difficult. Meddling in other people's detachments is something Qingzhi doesn't want to do. After all, no general can accept his own detachment being separated from his control.

Just like the Zhanye detachment last year, it is said that the Warring States Marshal himself paid tens of millions of Baileys and had to personally teach the members of the Zhanye detachment before Skyler agreed to lend the detachment.

If one knew that Sengoku, as a marshal, had this right, he would have to pay a lot of money to get Skyler to agree. If it were someone else, Skyler might not be able to accept it no matter how much he paid.

As for Akainu, he is sometimes even more disgustingly stubborn than the Monchi family who are best at making trouble. If he knew that Aokiji dared to get involved in his detachment, he would probably start a war with Aokiji.

This is exactly what Aokiji doesn't want to face, not because he is afraid of Akainu, but because he is too lazy to get into trouble, but... things have to be solved.

Aoki lay back on his chair, pulled down the blindfold on his forehead a little, and folded his hands on his chest, just like he used to do when taking a nap.

But as soon as he closed his eyes, he looked like the little girl more than ten years ago. This made Qingzhi feel sleepy. After trying hard for a while, Qingzhi, who was still not sleepy at all, finally got up.

He pushed the blindfold to his forehead, stretched, then hooked up his fingers and picked up the cloak of justice hanging on the chair, and walked towards the office of the Warring States Marshal.

"Do you want to take a vacation? You haven't had any work in the past year and a half, right?"

When Warring States heard the news that Aokiji wanted to take a vacation, he seemed a little unhappy because the excuse Aokiji used was actually the excuse of Fish-Man Island, which had already passed almost two years ago.

Qingzhi looked at Sengoku, who looked like he wanted to settle old scores, and said: "Marshal Sengoku, don't ask about this matter. Just agree to my leave application and settle the accounts with me when you come back."

"you..."

Sengoku took a deep breath and reminded himself that it was enough to have two generals, Garp and Skyler, who could make him angry to the point of cerebral hemorrhage at any time. He should not be angry for other people.

Seeing Qing Zhi's laziness, Warring States breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "I won't do this again!"

After saying that, he reached out and took out the seal and stamped it on Qingzhi's leave application.

"Do you have another mission to go on?"

Just when Aokiji picked up the application and was about to leave, he happened to meet Akainu at the door. Akainu looked at the document in Aokiji's hand and said with some envy.

Aokihiko subconsciously avoided Akainu's gaze, then shook his head and said, "No, it's just a vacation."

"Oh."

Hearing that Aoji was actually on vacation, Akainu withdrew his envious and jealous eyes, his eyes filled with hatred for the steel that was not made of steel. He then ignored Aoji and knocked directly on Sengoku's office door.

Warring States looked at the two generals whispering at the door of his office. He sighed again and said, "Come in? What do you want?"

Akainu walked in excitedly. After saluting, he put the report in his hand on Sengoku's desk and said, "Marshal Sengoku, Colonel Ace has destroyed several more pirate groups..."

Aoki didn't listen to what was said next. In the past six months, whenever Ace did something, Akainu would come to the Sengoku office or talk about it at the general meeting.

Isn't it just that I found a pretty good student? Is it worth showing off?Or do you really think that everyone has forgotten that you said so fiercely that you wanted to get rid of Luo's heirs?

Aokiji left, riding his [-]-bar bicycle. Three days later, he appeared on the outer waters of Alabasta.

With the slow speed at which he rode his bicycle, it was hard to believe that he was able to get here in such a short period of time. He must have concealed something ulterior in the process.

At this time, the Akainu detachment that Ace temporarily led also docked at the harbor of Rapeseed, a port city in Alabasta.

The Akainu detachment had completed its mission and was on its way back. Although the people on the detachment didn't quite understand why Ace, the adjutant, insisted on replenishing supplies here, they still followed the order.

There was no precedent for the navy to supply supplies in Alabasta before. After all, Alabasta was not wealthy, and the port city of Rapeseed did not have much supply supplies.

The reason why Ace insisted on stopping here was because three days ago, he received a call from Nurkic, asking him to stop here and wait for General Aokiji.

Although Ace is now Akainu's subordinate and a member of Akainu's detachment, Ace directly and unconditionally agreed to Nurkic's "request".

"Colonel Ace, the lookout found General Aoki Pheasant five miles away. Do you need to greet him?"

A marine from the Akainu detachment reported to Ace. Ace shook his head, looked at the reluctant marine on his face, and said, "No need, Lieutenant Colonel Tapo, if it is military affairs, I believe the headquarters will notify you.

I think General Qing Pheasant just passed by by chance, or was performing some confidential mission, so we don't have to go there and disturb him. Can you take someone to replenish supplies?Others can take a break, too. "

"Yes! Colonel Ace!"

Hearing Ace say that there is no need to greet Aokiji, Lieutenant Colonel Tapo immediately beamed. The temperament of a detachment will largely depend on the personality of the commander.

The Akainu detachment is no exception. Most of the members actually display personalities that are more or less similar to Akainu, that is, they will not hide their moods, likes and dislikes at any time.

As for the attitude towards General Aokiji, the detachment's view is very similar to that of their commander, that is... they don't like it, but if it is official business, they will still try their best to cooperate.

Tapo, the quartermaster, happily brought supplies to the logistics team, and the other detachment members also visited the city of Rapeseed.

The navy found it incredible to see that a small bottle of turbid fresh water could be sold for three hundred beli in the street market.

The navy knew that Alabasta was a desert city, but they were still surprised to see the price of fresh water resources.

You know, at the headquarters of Marineland, a bottle of Coke of the same size only costs [-] Baileys, and it is the kind that is chilled for customers.

Tapo took the team members to stroll around the street market. There were no fruits and vegetables for sale here. There was a lot of meat, but it was all dried meat and not much fresh meat.

Most of the people I met in the market were sitting quietly in the shade. Even if Tapo led people past the stalls, almost no stall owners made any noise to solicit customers, which seemed a bit lifeless.

"Ace, why do we come to a place like this?"

Ace was also in the street market on the other side at this time. Yamato asked feebly. Yamato hated this hot weather, just like Aoki would rather wear more clothes to make the office cold. They all liked it. Low temperature.

After hearing Yamato's question, Ace looked around and determined that there were no other marines except for Yamato who was weak, Pony who was silent, and Deus who was starting to stagger when walking and was obviously suffering from heat stroke, and then said:

"Uncle Nurkic asked me to come here. He said that he wanted me to wait for General Aokiji. He said that General Aokiji would teach us how to solve the drought problem here."

"Solve the drought here? Do you want to use the legendary..."

Deus suddenly came back to his senses. As a good young man who had devoted himself to becoming a romantic adventure storyteller since childhood, Deus had read almost all the logbooks or reference books published by legendary figures on the market, including the works of the great raconteur Rolando.

He had also seen a lot of this kind of "calling for wind and rain" in books. However, the methods recorded in the book, such as opening fresh water canals and digging wells to extract groundwater, obviously did not apply here.

But before he finished speaking, Ace shook his head and said, "No, but I don't know exactly what it is, but... look at the Santo River over there."

"Santo River? Where is the river? Isn't that a canyon?"

Following the direction of Ace's finger, Yamato was a little confused. Deus also looked at the situation of the Sento River carefully, frowned and said, "That shouldn't be the case. According to rumors, the Sento River is the widest and largest river in the world. ah."

Ace nodded and said: "That's true, but in Alabasta, except for the precipitation in the capital Albana, other places have been dry for a whole year.

If this continues, a large number of people may die of thirst or starvation.

So I think Uncle Nurkic may want us to solve the situation where the Santo River has dried up. "

"How to deal with it?"

Pony, who had been frowning and silent, finally spoke up. The current situation in Alabasta and the despair on the faces of the people in the market reminded her of the people she met in the kingdom when she was a child.

This made her feel very bad, so bad that she was not even interested in participating in the conversation. Now that she heard it, she finally had some interest. If the fresh water problem can be solved, maybe the people of Alabasta will become happy. ?

“Wouldn’t it be solved if there is water at the source?”

Just after Boni finished speaking, a lazy voice came. The four of them looked where the voice came from, and saw a green pheasant riding a large pole with a relaxed look on its face.

At this time, Yamato also regained some of his energy, not because of seeing Aokiji, but because of the comfortable cold air around Aokiji.

"General Green Pheasant!"

Ace quickly saluted, while Yamato, Pony and Deus thought of saluting belatedly, but Aokiji waved his hand and said, "Let's get this done quickly, I don't want to have anything to do with Akainu's people. ."

Hearing Ao Pheasant go straight to the topic as soon as he arrived, Ace nodded and asked: "General Ao Pheasant, you just said that as long as there is water at the source, it can be solved, but... where should the water at the source come from? "

"The sea...it's all water."

After Qingzhi finished speaking, he turned the handle of the [-]-bar and kicked towards the seaside. Ace and the others were a little confused, but they quickly followed.

Soon, a few people arrived at the beach. Qingzhi also got off the Erba Dagang and squatted at the dock. When he saw the four people approaching, he said: "I will only demonstrate once, and you will do it by yourselves from now on."

Although he was a little confused, Ace still nodded. Everyone else also opened their eyes wide. Qingzhi looked at the four of them and didn't understand why Deus followed. What could he do?

But Aokiji still didn't bother to ask. After all, it seemed that the son of the Pirate King had a good relationship with the ordinary, even thin young man.

Standing up, Qing Zhi walked towards the sea step by step. When he reached the end of the pier, he did not stop. Instead, he took one step forward and was about to step on the air and fall into the sea. Ace instantly turned into a ball of fire and instinctively approached Qing Zhi. Pheasant.

But the next moment, an icicle rose from the sea and stopped at the feet of Qing Pheasant. Its height was almost the same as the pier. Qing Pheasant didn't even need to adjust its pace.

After walking for several steps, Aokiji finally stopped, looked at Ace who was still on fire, and said, "You should save some energy first, I will need you later."

"oh oh..."

Ace nodded and quickly put away the flames. At this time, the icicles under Aoki's feet slowly sank, and only stopped when they were only a little higher than the sea surface.

"I really don't like this move."

Talking to himself, Qingzhi put one hand in his bag, touched the sea with the other, and bent down.

When his right hand was covered by sea water, Qingzhi blinked. Even now, he still found it difficult to adapt to this feeling of weakness that kept coming up.

"Ice Age."

He murmured softly, and in the next moment, his body began to emit a cold air that would freeze an ordinary person to death, especially his hands submerged in the sea, which were unimaginably cold.

The seawater covering his hands was quickly frozen into ice and continued to grow outward.

Starting from the pier and stretching out for several miles, the sea water turns into ice.

"click~"

Pulling his hand out of the ice, Qingzhi stood up, pointed to the huge ice at his feet, and said, "There is water."

"But this isn't fresh water! This is sea water!"

Yamato was a little puzzled. After hearing this, Aokiji rubbed his eyelids. The remaining ice on his hands made his eyes very comfortable. After rubbing for a while, he put down his hands and said:

"As long as the temperature and speed are controlled properly, salt will be precipitated when seawater freezes."

As he spoke, Qing Pheasant lightly kicked the ice, and a small piece of ice was kicked up and fell into Qing Pheasant's hands. Qing Pheasant said, "When it melts, this will be a cup of pure water. Do you understand?"

Yamato nodded, but her eyes were still full of doubts. She still couldn't figure out why seawater turned into pure water after it was frozen.

However, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it, as long as it’s true, isn’t it okay?

"The next step is to transport the ice to the source of the river. Of course, you can also use another method, such as turning the ice into rain."

Ao Pheasant returned to the pier from the ice. After hearing this, Ace looked at the huge piece of ice and asked: "General Ao Pheasant, how are you going to transport this piece of ice to the source of the river? This is not possible. Is it too big?"

"Big? Ah la la~ Today's young people are too weak, right?"

Hearing that Aokiji dared to mock Ace, Yamato was a little unconvinced and said, "Ace is not weak at all! Moreover, this piece of ice has probably melted away before it was moved to the source of the river, right?"

Aoki looked at Yamato and said, "I heard that your fruit power is also related to ice?"

Yamato nodded, but still stared at Aokiji. She had no sense of awe. Although she knew she might not be able to defeat him, what happened if she couldn't defeat him?Do you have to lower your eyebrows and bow your head if you can't beat him? !

"It seems like you haven't developed your own fruit at all."

Qing Zhi shook his head and said: "As long as the temperature is low enough, it is very simple to keep the ice cubes from melting for several days. For example, this piece... will take seven days. It will melt after seven days. Or do you think you can't melt this piece of ice in seven days?" Transport the ice cubes to the destination?”

Hearing what Aokiji said, Yamato frowned, it seemed... it made sense, just like ice drinks, some ice drinks melted half before you started drinking.

In some ice drinks, the ice cubes inside can remain firm until the drink is finished, and there will still be a lot of ice cubes left.

"I'll try it."

At this time, Pony stood up and ended the embarrassing situation. She took off her cloak of justice, and Deus took it wisely.

Bonny rolled up his sleeves, then jumped directly from the sea at the edge of the ice and swam towards the bottom of the sea.

As soon as he entered the sea, Poni felt that his body was stiff, and the biting cold was constantly coming from the giant ice.

Poni in the sea clenched her fists, and her internal organs began to pump faster. The feeling of being almost frozen in her body was soon relieved. She did not dare to delay any longer and swam quickly towards the bottom of the sea.

Aoki Pheasant not only froze the sea surface, but the huge ice at this time was like a mountain sunk into the sea.

"Bang~ swoosh~"

When Bonny came to the center of the iceberg and pushed the iceberg, the iceberg lifted up a little. The moment the sea surface was broken, there was a loud noise from the edge, and a lot of seawater flowed down from the edge of the iceberg.

As the iceberg rose, Bonny felt more and more strenuous, which forced her to speed up the pumping of her internal organs again, and her body almost reached beyond the controllable limit.

But the huge iceberg was still lifted by her.

Seeing Poni step ashore from the sea, even Aoki gulped and said, "What an incredible physical talent. No wonder Lieutenant General Garp and Teacher Zefa take such fancy."

Although the ground near the port was full of rocks instead of soft sand like the beach, Poni's feet still sank into the ground.

At this time, many members of the Akainu detachment who noticed the strange phenomenon rushed here. Seeing this scene, many people were speechless and even forgot to salute Aokiji.

But Poni obviously couldn't move anymore. On the one hand, the iceberg was too heavy. On the other hand, she was almost frozen. When she came out of the sea, her clothes were originally wet, but those water droplets had turned into ice.

And the little bit that Bonny accidentally tasted... she felt that it was much saltier and bitter than any seawater she had ever remembered before, as if it was the concentration of seawater, which made her face distorted and painful.

Aoki nodded appreciatively, why did this plan require Ace, Yamato and Pony to participate together?The reason is that this cannot be done directly by any one person. For example, now, Ace and Yamato cannot do what Pony does.

Perhaps because he was entrusted to Skyler too early, Pony was not a fruit-powered person in the original work. In fact, Skyler was quite surprised at first.

However, I feel relieved when I think that in the original work, Ace only found the Shashao Fruit after he officially went to sea.

Poni, who did not take the fruit, embarked on a completely different path from the original work. Her talent in physical skills was also completely discovered, and she became a physical monster that was as good as any strong person.

What supports her physical talent is her incredibly powerful physical talent. Today, Pawnee seems to have perfected the Liuku Immortal Thief that Skyler made up about back then.

Of course, the current iceberg is still too strenuous for her.

Aoki looked at Ace and said, "Can you master the little sun trick you used at the training ground last year?"

Ace nodded, as if he knew what Aokiji wanted to do. He cast it instantly and appeared in an open space hundreds of meters away. At the same time, circles of fire shadows appeared under his feet.

"Great Flame Ring!"

Compared to this time last year, it was much easier. Of course, it was not as scary as that time. Ace sacrificed part of his destructive power to enhance his control of the flames.

Aoki looked at Ace holding the little sun, then looked at Pony and said, "Throw it as high as you can."

"eat!"

Bonny's answer was incomprehensible. She felt that her teeth and tongue were frozen, and her speech was not as natural as usual.

The next second, the frozen seawater drops on Poni's body melted instantly, and his internal organs, blood, muscles, and ligaments instantly entered the most extreme state.

"drink!"

She held up the iceberg and threw it towards the sky. The huge iceberg flew into the air instantly. The entire Rapeseed people saw something shiny in the sky.

"Emperor Yan!"

Without Aokiji's orders, Ace also pushed out the little sun in his hand when the iceberg was about to reach its highest altitude. When the iceberg reached its highest altitude and was about to begin to fall, the little sun that caught up with him directly hit it.

"Bang! Boom boom boom~"

In an instant, the huge iceberg disintegrated and countless ice cubes splashed. However, the moment it passed through the huge fireball, it was dissolved into pure water.

"pia~"

Because it was not high enough, the water fell to the ground in clumps.

"Clap la la la~"

Not long after, a real downpour began over the rapeseed flowers, with warm or cold water masses falling continuously.

Qing Zhi pointed his finger to the sky, and an icicle stretched out from his finger. It extended to the top of his head and then blossomed into an ice umbrella. He looked at the rapeseed flowers that showed signs of flooding in an instant and said:

"Well...although it's a little imperfect, it's...solved."
