From Pirates to Sweeping the Worlds

【Bharati】Restaurant.

Usopp, Johnny and Joseph were busy treating the wounds of brother Zoro.

Johnny and Joseph's eyes were filled with tears, and if you didn't know better you would have thought they were seriously injured.

Sanji was deeply moved when he saw Zoro, who was not afraid of death for his dream.

Zeff crossed his arms over his chest, glancing at the hesitant Sanji from time to time.

"Come in! The party is ready!" Paddy greeted everyone with a smile.

"Banquet...I love it the most!" Luffy was the first to rush into the restaurant.

Usopp called out, "Let's go too! If we're any later, Luffy will eat up all the delicious food!"

"But...Brother Zoro..." Johnny looked at Zoro lying on the ground, a little hesitant.

Zoro's eyelids twitched, and just as he was about to ask Johnny and Joseph to leave him alone, he heard Usopp say, "How about Joseph and I go get some food to eat."

"Good idea!" Johnny and Joseph's eyes lit up.

Zoro was so angry: "Usopp, you are a devil!"

"You can imagine eating and drinking in front of seriously injured patients."

A joyful banquet began.

During this time, everyone except Zoro, who was seriously injured, had a great time.

At the end of the banquet, everyone at Bharati began to perform their poor acting skills.

Sanji was soon angry and left, and Luffy, Usopp and others also knew the purpose of their actions.

When Luffy and his crew left, Sanji finally made up his mind to go out to sea with Luffy.

Before leaving, Sanji thanked Zeff, his adoptive parent, with tears in his eyes.

【Bharati】Everyone burst into tears on the spot.

However, it is not a good sight to see a group of fierce-looking men crying together.

Anyway, Xia Jieren felt a little awkward.

At this time, Zoro finally recovered some strength.

He asked Johnny and Joseph weakly, "Are you really not going with us?"

Johnny and Joseph nodded in unison.

Johnny smiled and said, "Thanks to Brother Zoro, we got a great bargain."

"Brother Zoro, do you really not want the bounty of Iron Wall Palu?" Joseph said a little embarrassedly.

Zoro waved his hand and said, "No! I'll give it to you!"

"I'm a pirate now, and it feels weird to exchange pirates' heads for bounties!"

"Thank you so much! Brother Zoro, Brother Usopp, Brother Luffy, and Brother Sanji took care of you." Johnny and Joseph expressed their gratitude.

"Goodbye!" Luffy stood at the bow of the Merry and waved goodbye.

"Goodbye! Everyone! We will miss you!" Johnny and Joseph waved excitedly.

Under the gaze of everyone, the Merry slowly sailed towards the sea.

Johnny and Joseph said with some regret: "It's a pity that Brother Zoro doesn't become a bounty hunter."

......

"Master, we can start the Leviathan Project now!"

One day, Kerrigan suddenly reported this surprising news to Xia Jieren.

Xia Jieren's lips curled up: "Finally came to this point, it's not easy!"

"Just do it!" Xia Jieren waved his hand and invested a huge amount of resources into the research.

After thirteen days and an investment of nearly thirty billion energy points, the Zerg units gained the ability to fly.

However, small Zerg units such as [Zenglings] and [Hydralisks] are unable to fly for too long due to their own size, so it would be more appropriate to describe them as floating.

Even so, Xia Jieren was already very satisfied.

If nothing else, the combat effectiveness of Zerg units has been greatly increased.

This is just the beginning.

According to the plan, Kerrigan will gradually add special abilities such as fire-breathing, water-spitting, and electric discharge to Zerg units such as [Zenglings] and [Hydralisks].

Until then... hehe...

Thinking of this, Xia Jieren couldn't help but feel excited.

At this time, Xia Jieren had no time to take care of other things. He spent the whole day in the [Mind Network], checking the research progress of [Leviathan].

According to his vision, Leviathan will become the Zerg's interstellar transport ship, so it must not only be large in size, but also have strong attack power and strong defensive capabilities.

Xia Jieren didn't have to wait long. Four days later, Kerrigan showed him the design drawings of Leviathan.

The first time he saw it, Xia Jieren was shocked by this three-kilometer-long giant.

[Leviathan] is about 3629 meters long, 768 meters wide, and 489 meters high. It can accommodate up to 13 crew members of various types and carry millions of Zerg units of various types. It is huge and floats in the air like a mobile fortress.

Leviathan is covered with a thick carapace that can withstand attacks from most conventional weapons. Its head is equipped with a complex sensory organ that can detect electromagnetic fluctuations and biological energy in the surrounding area in real time. Its back is equipped with a huge biological turret that can fire high-energy biological shells to cause devastating blows to enemy positions.

Additionally, their bodies are covered in glands that spray bio-acids, which are highly corrosive and can quickly melt enemy armor and structures.

After the excitement, Xia Jieren frowned and said, "Kerrigan, Leviathan's defense is still a little weak. Although it has a strong biological repair ability, once the attack strength exceeds the threshold, Leviathan will be in danger."

"You know, there are many people in this ocean who can threaten Leviathan."

Kerrigan nodded and said, "I know! Originally, I wanted to research an energy shield system to defend against the enemy's high-energy attacks. However, the difficulty of this system is far beyond imagination, so I have to put it on hold for the time being."

Xia Jieren pondered for a moment and said, "Well... you should first study a large-scale electromagnetic shield system. We already have this technology, and it's relatively simple."

"No problem!" Kerrigan agreed immediately.

Xia Jieren continued to stare at the Leviathan on the screen with an infatuated look.

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and slid the information of [Leviathan] to the bottom.

"Hiss——, 1.2 million energy points!"

Although he had expected this, Xia Jieren's heart still couldn't help but tremble when he saw the cost.

This is not over yet!

What’s even more outrageous is yet to come.

"What! The daily maintenance cost is as high as two million energy points!" Xia Jieren almost dropped his jaw at this number.

This is just the cost of daily maintenance, not including the damage caused by combat.

"When not in use, it consumes nearly 200,000 energy points every day to maintain the life of Leviathan."

Seeing this, Xia Jieren was speechless.

This is not a weapon for Xia Jieren to expand his territory, it's simply a living ancestor.

Such a huge expense!

Xia Jieren was hesitant.

But thinking of how Kerrigan had never let him down, Xia Jieren gritted his teeth and said, "It's just energy points. If they're gone, I can just earn more."

"What great things can be accomplished by being so fussy!"
