From Pirates to Sweeping the Worlds

It is not difficult to understand why the Navy made such a choice.

The artillery used by the navy is originally more advanced than that used by pirates, so their demand for artillery is not high for the time being.

During naval battles, the accuracy of artillery is a major flaw.

Generally speaking, after a few rounds of aerial exchanges between the navy and pirates, if the pirate ship is not successfully sunk, it will develop into a boarding battle.

At this time, artillery is of little use.

On the contrary, the role of assault rifles, machine guns and grenades becomes more prominent.

All in all, He is worthy of being a naval adviser and the decision he made was very wise.

Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Xia Jieren was excited about the navy's new big order: "This is all money!"

After arranging the birth, Xia Jieren no longer paid attention to it.

The arms business is on the right track and there is no need for him to keep an eye on it all the time.

Xia Jieren was free again.

So he picked up a popular newspaper in the Netherlands, intending to kill some free time.

"It's so relaxing!" Xia Jieren took a sip of tea and looked at the newspaper. "Let me see if there's any news worth reading today."

[Shock! An unknown group of sea monsters appeared near the coast]

Seeing this title, Xia Jieren was stunned, and then asked in confusion: "Huh~, how could a group of sea monsters appear near the coast?"

The next second, he chuckled and said, "Ha~, grandstanding for the sake of attention!"

"It seems that the publication of newspapers will have to be properly regulated in the future." Xia Jieren thought.

However, out of curiosity, he continued reading.

[Yesterday, a fisherman was sailing out to sea, but was accidentally blown away from the coast by the sea wind. When he tried his best to return to the coast, he accidentally fell into the sea. He opened his eyes with difficulty in the sea, but unexpectedly found dozens of monsters slowly moving towards the Netherlands Island. Due to the poor visibility in the sea, the fisherman could only see that the monsters were spherical and estimated to be larger than the fishing boat. Afterwards, he returned to the village in panic and took the village cadres and militia out to sea, but this time he did not find any traces of the sea monsters...]

"Spherical and larger than a fishing boat." Xia Jieren thought.

After a moment, the corner of his mouth twitched and he said, "Uh~, no way?"

At this time, Xia Jieren probably already knew the true appearance of the sea monster.

"Kerrigan, it can't be what I think." he asked uncertainly.

"My Lord, just as you thought, the sea monster the fisherman mentioned should be a single-celled algae that has gathered into a ball."

"Yesterday was the day when the single-cell algae near the Netherlands Island were harvested," Kerrigan explained.

"Uh~, okay." Xia Jieren said helplessly.

Generally speaking, single-cell algae gather in deeper areas of the sea and are not easily discovered.

However, the depth of the island is relatively shallow near the coast, so it is normal for it to be discovered.

"In the future, be careful and try not to let others find out." Xia Jieren reminded.

"Yes!" Kerrigan responded.

This kind of thing can only be avoided as much as possible, it cannot be prevented.

It is impossible to prevent it even if you want to. Don't forget that there are underwater races such as murlocs and mermen in this world.

Although most of them are active in the Grand Line, no one knows whether they will come to the West Sea.

......

After reading today's hot news, Xia Jieren read a few novels published in the newspaper.

"Why are they all short stories?" Xia Jieren said disappointedly, "And the themes are all the same."

"Princess, pirate, navy..."

"It seems that there is still a long way to go in the development of One Piece world entertainment." Xia Jieren said with emotion.

As Xia Jieren expected, "Breaking the Sky" was very popular.

People are amazed at the author's imagination.

Once the author's million-dollar royalties were disclosed, it caused an uproar.

People flocked to it and racked their brains, hoping to write similar stories.

Seeing this, Xia Jieren was very happy. "That's right. After meeting basic material needs, people need a rich spiritual life."

After finishing his leisurely reading time, Xia Jieren looked at the time, "Well, it's only twelve o'clock. I'll rest for another hour and then go exercise."

He randomly found a rocking chair and lay down on it.

Xia Jieren closed his eyes slightly and entered the heart net.

Thinking of what Kerrigan said just now that the single-cell algae had been harvested yesterday, he opened his data panel after a long absence.

[Master: Xia Jieqing]

[Energy: 1.82 billion]

[Ability: Breathing Technique]

[Army type template: Suicide bug (200), Cannon bug (360), Sea king bug (10w)......]

[Units: Explosive Bug x196, Cannon Bug x900, Sea King Bug x10......]

[Building template: Fungal blanket (100), evolution chamber (100), nutrient embryo (100)......]

[Buildings: Fungal blanket, nutrient embryo x1, evolution chamber x1......]

"Hiss~, 1.8 million points of energy." Xia Jieren couldn't help but take a breath.

Then he laughed out loud: "It's only been a short time! I went from having nothing to being rich enough to rival a country. Haha~"

Then, he thought about the days when he first came to this world and ate grass to save energy, "Woo woo~, I really tried too hard."

Xia Jieren's emotions come and go quickly.

After a moment, he looked at the map of the West Sea and the area covered by the fungal blanket, frowned and said, "The expansion speed of the fungal blanket is still a bit slow. So far, it has only covered nearly two-fifths of the area of ​​the West Sea. It seems that we need to speed it up."

He caught a glimpse of his existing energy points out of the corner of his eye, and his confidence suddenly increased.

"Kerrigan! Leave 10 million energy for emergencies, and use the rest to expand the fungal blanket." Xia Jieren added.

Suddenly, he thought of something and added, "Oh, by the way, give priority to covering the entire West Sea, and stop at the Red Earth Continent for now."

Thinking of the Red Earth Continent, Xia Jieren also felt a little worried.

The expansion of the fungal blanket on the red soil continent is too slow.

Over the past few months, it has expanded by less than ten kilometers.

The rock layers beneath the red earth continent are too thick.

The energy required to expand the fungal blanket by one kilometer is several times more than other places.

Moreover, the Red Earth Continent is too wide. Its narrowest part is fifty or sixty kilometers, and its widest part is over one hundred kilometers.

That is why the holy land of Marijoa is located on it.

Today, Xia Jieren's influence is mostly in the West Sea, and a few tentacles have extended into the Grand Route and the other three seas.

Xia Jieren is not in a hurry for the time being.

Afterwards, Xia Jieren looked at the forces under his command.

"Hehe~, I didn't expect that I have such strong capital now." As he said this, Xia Jieren let out a silly laugh.

after an hour.

"Master Overlord, it's time to go to training." Kerrigan suddenly appeared and reminded.

"Oh! Okay." Xia Jieren's little face suddenly fell and he agreed very reluctantly.

"I don't know who said it, but it takes a hundred days to develop a good habit."

"But why do I still not like exercising?"

"Sure enough, what experts say can be listened to but not believed." Xia Jieren thought to himself.

The next moment, Xia Jieren stood up honestly and threw himself into the boring training again.
