One Piece: Under the Throne

"We have money again?"

Will looked at the boxes of Baileys excitedly. Fatty was still worried that the government would not agree, which would force the plan to strengthen the Poseidon to be stopped.

"Hayaku, I want air-to-ground weapons, I want small aircraft, Leo, I can't wait."

Gloria also walked over with her arms around her chest and a smile on her face: "And my combat uniform. Every time I see you guys charging in the front, I also want to fight alongside you all."

Leo was shocked when he heard this: "As a mage, don't be so reckless. Just use your skills from a distance. Gloria, let me tell you that many great mages in history were killed instantly because of positioning errors."

Let Will and Gloria go to the dock to wait first, Leo took part of the funds to find Caesar. He checked the progress of the devil fruit research, but Caesar was beaten again, and there was no progress at all.

Grabbing Caesar's horns and lifting him up, Leo threatened: "Hey, hey, hey, are you ignoring my words?"

"Buy that match, don't fight anymore, there will be progress soon."

"Well, next time I come to check, if you still can't produce a sample, I'll throw you into a gas tank and burn you."

"Don't say I don't take care of you. I've given you the newly approved research funds. Caesar, please don't let me down."

Under the carrot and stick attack, Caesar could only nod his head, but only he knew what he was thinking in his heart.

After scolding Caesar, Leo came to the dock refreshed. As soon as he arrived there, he saw Will cleaning the boat. He drooled as he cleaned the boat, and the saliva dripped onto the deck, which he then wiped clean again and again.

Leo called Will with a frown on his face: "What's wrong with you, little fatty? Why do you look so weird when you're just cleaning a boat?"

Will wiped his saliva and grinned foolishly: "Hey, hey, I can't help but feel happy when I think that the Poseidon Soldier has become stronger."

Leo said with disgust: "You don't think of it as your son."

Will looked like he didn’t understand anything: “Tsk, tsk, tsk, how could it be my son? It’s obviously my wife!”

Leo: ...

At this moment, Leo just wanted to stay away from this perverted guy. Now he missed the simple and innocent little fat fish.

"Then you continue to play with your wife here, I will go and think of the renovation plan for the back."

"Ah! Goddess, did you hear that? Leo is coming to strengthen you soon. Do you like it thick and long or big and hard..."

Leo: &*……&*%……%

Leo tapped the table with his finger. The transformation of the spacecraft has been completed and the defense problem has been solved. The only thing left is the attack capability. He must design powerful weapons for the Poseidon, otherwise the air advantage will be wasted.

So Leo pulled out a blueprint from the shelf, which recorded the air-to-ground weapon plan of the Poseidon.

"Yeah, the bombing function can be retained. Huh? I designed this main gun? How could I design such an ugly thing? If Will's wife is equipped with such a thick and big thing, Little Fatty will definitely be sad. This plan is rejected."

Leo entered the working state and muttered to himself in the laboratory. After 3 hours, the revised plan was finally finalized.

"Come on Will, come and see, this is another great invention by genius Leo."

Leo's design is very simple. Originally, there were no gun muzzles on the sides of the Poseidon, but since weapons were to be added, this part could not be wasted.

There are three holes on each side of the ship. The third row of holes is larger. Two wing-like parts can be extended from the inside, and missile launchers are hung under the wings. This design alone can suppress most navy and pirates.

The first two rows of holes are used to launch floating cannons. Leo is very superstitious about intensive firepower, and with the addition of floating cannons, the Poseidon instantly turns into an aircraft carrier.

After Leo confidently introduced the design to everyone, he waited for everyone's praise with anticipation.

But Will and Gloria's reactions were completely beyond his expectations.

"Leo, why do the things coming out of my goddess's front two rows of holes look so much like a fish giving birth?"

"That's it? Where's the big, thick railgun Leo promised me?"

"Ah, this... I thought you would like it." Leo felt a little autistic, but then he became excited again. Scientists must have their own persistence.

"Gloria, you are a girl and you always want something thick and big. I will make you a weapon later."

"What's wrong with fish giving birth? I'm just trying to meet your request. Will, you treat Poseidon as your wife. You've been together for so long, you should have your own children."

Will, Gloria: ...Why do my fists suddenly feel hard?

In the end, the majority gave in to Leo and the minority gave in.

The transformation went very smoothly and was completed in just seven days, but Leo always felt that Will was a little unhappy during this period. He cleaned the boat more diligently every day, and while cleaning he kept muttering to himself: "Goddess, you are not clean anymore."

At this point, the transformation of the Poseidon was complete, and Leo felt that there was no need to stay in Punk Hazard anymore. But before he could apply to the Five Elders for permission to go out to sea, he was attracted by Will's sneaky behavior.

"What happened to that little fat girl Gloria recently?"

Gloria rolled her eyes in annoyance: "Maybe someone was too strong and did something to him."

Leo was embarrassed: "Don't say such weird things, let's talk about business."

"I don't know. He has been like this since the boat was remodeled. He doesn't clean the boat every day and always takes his meals back to his room to eat."

"Ah? No way, if Will is really unhappy, can't I change it?"

"Then I want a big electromagnetic cannon..."

"Get out of here."

Leo and Gloria sneaked up to Will's room and put their ears to the door.

"Little guy, try this. You don't like it. How about this sausage? You still don't like it. You are such a picky eater. Even though your mom doesn't support you, your dad won't let you go hungry. Tell me what you like."

"Ow..."

Leo, Gloria: ...

What's going on? Or whose? No, who the hell is it? Will, Will thought that only Charles, that stuffy bastard, could do this, but I didn't expect you, the one with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to come out on top.

Leo and Gloria looked at each other and understood each other's meaning from each other's eyes. Is this little guy considered a second-generation seaman?

Just as Leo was imagining an unhealthy scene, Gloria gently pulled his sleeve and said, "Should we go in?"

"This is not good."

"We can't let Will hide the child forever. Do you think he can take care of the child?"

"Well, okay! It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Let's go in."

Bang! Leo kicked the hatch open. "Little Fatty, you've made it. Who dared to abandon you? What the hell is that?"

A puppy came into view, and when it saw Leo coming in, the little guy hid behind Will. They thought that their brother was abandoned by a bad girl, but they never expected that this relationship was cross-species.

After a moment of silence, Leo stammered, pointed at the puppy and asked, "Will, you...you are awesome."

"Ah? Leo, Gloria, why are you here?" As he said this, he pushed the puppy behind him with his hand. His reaction was exactly like a child who had done something bad and was caught by his parents.

"What? Tell me the truth, who is this child's mother?"

"It has no mother, I...I..."

"…What do you mean? Explain yourself quickly."

Will calmed down now: "Boss, I don't know how it came out. I was cleaning the boat that day and it popped out."

Leo, Gloria: "..."

"How do you wipe it? Teach me how to do it."

"Goddess, you are not clean anymore. It's all because of something Leo invented. Woohoo. Just like that, it came out while I was wiping."

Leo: "Are you saying bad things about me behind my back? Okay, I think I know what it is. I think this puppy is probably the spirit of the ship. Those spirits can only be born from ships that are truly cared for. Will, you are really amazing and you actually let you raise a puppy."

Gloria, Will: "..."
