Pirates: The first companion is Tom Cat

In April 1513 of the Haiyuan calendar, more than a month had passed since the establishment of the new World United Government.

As one of the initiators, King Cobra of Alabasta has been very busy during this period.

On this day, the sky in Alabasta was gloomy. Cobra took a break from his busy schedule and took his daughter out of the palace to play in the good weather.

——Yes, cloudy days are considered good weather in Alabasta.

It has been a while since the father and daughter have been so comfortable traveling together.

"Vivi, you seem to be smiling all the time." Cobra was secretly happy. It seems that his choice to accompany Vivi to play was right.

"Yeah, I can already imagine Ikalem's furious look after he found out you were missing."

Vivi couldn't control the smile on her face. It would be interesting to go back. "Is it really okay for you to just leave so many official duties?"

"Ah..." Cobra's face fell, and his little cotton jacket was a little leaky. "The king also needs a vacation..."

"Never mind, let's go to the Santo River first." Cobra said, "Mr. Binz is in charge of the Santo No. 7 Oasis, which is almost completed. It's a good time to go and take a look."

"Let's see who gets there first!" Vivi signaled Kalu to run faster.

"Okay, I won't lose to you!" Cobra also smiled and urged him to keep up with the running duck he was riding.

At first, Binz didn't like the task of planting trees in Alabasta. In comparison, he preferred to fight and catch pirates like his comrades.

But recently he seems to like planting trees more and more.

In the desolate desert, sowing seeds and planting saplings with your own hands, and then using your ability to promote their rapid growth, creating a whole oasis bit by bit...

The joy of harvest is simply the highest level of enjoyment in the world.

Coupled with the happy smiles of the people who assisted him, Binz felt that his current job might be more meaningful than catching pirates.

"Mr. Binz, is this oasis really going to be allocated to us to live in?"

Binz replied: "Of course, His Majesty the King said it himself, it can't be wrong."

The person asking the question was a fishman, who was one of the fishmen who took the initiative to move here after Princess Otohime visited Alabasta last time.

After arriving in Alabasta, this group of fishmen have been helping to dig canals and build oases. Considering that fishmen would be more comfortable living near the water, Cobra decided to allocate the newly built oasis on the banks of the Santo River to them to build a town.

Of course, the fishmen who moved to Alabasta are only a small part, and the official relocation plan of Fishman Island began after the World United Government was put into operation.

The destination is a small island in the Calm Belt, not far from the Daughter Island.

After the Empress decided to lead the Nine Snakes to join the coalition government, Fishman Island also cooperated with the Nine Snakes under the bridge of Jinbei's front line.

It is said that they plan to set up a shipping company to give full play to the advantages of being able to easily pass through the Calm Belt and the powerful military forces of both sides.

Neptune and Otohime did not restrict the freedom of residents to choose where to move. Although most of them chose to continue to follow the king and the princess, some chose to go to Alabasta, and a smaller number stayed in Fishman Island.

Cobra expressed great welcome to this. The mermaids are all good at infrastructure and fishing. The bars and cafes opened by the mermaids are also very popular. As a king, he is naturally very happy.

Cobra chose this place on purpose today. On the one hand, he came here to play with Vivi, and on the other hand, he could also inspect the progress of the project and see how the mermaids get along with the civilians.

But when the father and daughter just arrived at the edge of the oasis, they saw not the mermaids, but a familiar cat-head flag on the Santo River.

Cobra looked at the boat approaching the shore: "That's..."

Weiwei cheered: "Everyone!"

"Quack~" Kalu happily carried her to the river bank.

The little girls who saw Weiwei had already flown off the boat and hugged each other. Kalu, who was surrounded, stretched his neck and looked at his good friend Teacher Tom.

Others got off the boat and greeted Cobra. Zhang Da also said: "You came so quickly. The port should have just reported it not long ago?"

"Ah, this..." Cobra was a little embarrassed. It didn't seem to be a glorious thing for a king to sneak out. "We came out early."

Weiwei mercilessly exposed her father's stage: "Yes, before the port report!"

Everyone laughed.

Cobra changed the subject: "In that case, why don't we go to the newly built oasis together? When we return, the palace will be almost ready for the banquet."

"Such a large oasis, the construction progress is very gratifying."

"Thanks to Mr. Binz and the help of many fish friends."

Everyone walked and looked along the way. When they met Binz, they naturally exchanged greetings. The fish people also looked at the Amber Tour Group with respect and gratitude.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Da also asked: "You must be very busy recently? I heard that the New World Government is developing very well."

"Yes, now more and more countries have joined the United Government, and the number of member countries has far exceeded the previous World Government." Cobra said, "But it is precisely because of this that our kings are getting busier and busier."

Zhang Da also said: "In this case, how about letting us help you share some of the work?"

"Really? That's great!" Cobra was overjoyed. This is a trustworthy strong supporter. "What kind of work do you plan to participate in? Fight crime? Help poor countries? Or help with liaison and negotiation?"

"Uh... none of them." Zhang Daye said shamelessly, "I mean to help you take care of Weiwei for a period of time."

"..." Cobra's face darkened in an instant. If the person who said this was not Zhang Daye, his fist might have been covered. Is this human talk? !

Weiwei was very happy. It seemed that she could go out to sea with everyone again?

"It's like this..." Zhang Daye hurriedly explained the reason, and by the way emphasized the high-sounding reason that digging tunnels would help strengthen exchanges around the world.

After thinking carefully, Cobra found that it seemed to make sense?

No, this person said nice things, but in fact he wanted to catch Weiwei to do hard labor!

Looking at his precious daughter who couldn't wait to leave now, Cobra patted his forehead and said, no need to think about it.

The Amber Tour Group did not stay in Alabasta for too long, because they received a call saying that Mori had already set off and would reach Red Harbor in seven days at most.

Zhang Daye and his friends had a few meals and immediately set off with Vivi.

However, the next destination was not Red Harbor, but the Sabaody Archipelago.

Zhang Daye wanted to see Uncle Goodman and his family, and also to hire some construction workers - for a large project like a tunnel, he was worried that it would collapse without the guidance of professionals.

The Goodman family welcomed the arrival of the Amber Tour Group.

Goodman patted Zhang Daye on the shoulder and praised him loudly for his beautiful work. He also wanted to brag about how he was when he was young, but he would occasionally get stuck in embarrassment.

In fact, what the group of people in front of him actually did was beyond his imagination when he was bragging, so it was not easy to organize his words.

Fortunately, Shark Chili brought up the topic of ship repair, and Uncle Long also mentioned the issue of educating children.

Speaking of his profession and his responsibilities as a father, Goodman was not sleepy anymore. He poured wine for the guests and himself and talked endlessly.

Mrs. Molly was chatting with the girls enthusiastically, and she would quietly ask Zhang Daye whether he liked Altria or Rui Mengmeng, and what the two girls thought.

Little Bayer has grown a lot in the past two years, and his personality is as lively as before, and he likes to play with Tom as before.

In addition, with Tom's permission, he was qualified to ride Kalu out to play together, and the legitimate owner Weiwei was usually forgotten by Kalu.

No matter which time he came, Zhang Daye always felt very cordial.

Maybe it was because this was the first place he settled after coming to this world, or maybe it was because no matter how well he did outside, the attitude of this family did not change at all.

They can probably be regarded as his family in this world.

...

"Expert in construction? This is easy." Goodman agreed to Zhang Daye's request, "Leave the workers to me, in fact, just find the workers in our dock directly."

Shipworkers are the strongest workers in the world. As long as it has something to do with shipbuilding, they can do almost anything, including construction.

With the help of Goodman, Zhang Daye quickly recruited enough workers - one of the important factors was that the salary was high enough and the employer was Amber Travel Group.

In fact, Zhang Daye is now quite prestigious, otherwise these workers would not want to participate in such a ridiculous project.

It takes at most half an hour to get from Shampoo Land to Red Harbor, and if you take the Anthem, the speed can be even faster.

If necessary, the workers can even go home for lunch and rest at noon, and then come back.

Everyone was shocked when they arrived at Red Harbor, because the giant Mori was already waiting in Red Harbor.

The shocking point is not that the other party is a giant, but that he is a "new human", commonly known as a transvestite.

Can you imagine a 10-meter-tall, bearded man, shyly pinching the hem of his skirt, and reminding you in a rough and gentle voice "Don't peek under someone's skirt"?

Zhang Da also pinched his brows. He should have brought Brook with him earlier to give the old pervert a little spiritual shock, even though he has no heart. Yo ho ho~

Zhang Da also patted his cheeks. Oh no, he was so shocked just now that he told himself a skeleton joke.

"Hello, you are Mori...right?" Zhang Da didn't know whether to call him Mr. or Miss for a moment, so he could only vaguely say, "I'll leave it to you this time."

"Ah~ You actually called me by my name~" Mori looked embarrassed, "I'm Mori, Mr. Long asked me to help."

"Well..." Zhang Da also tried to control his emotions, "Thank you for your hard work, now let's go choose a site."

...

The tunnel was chosen to be about 20 minutes away from Honggang. If it was too close, it would encounter the roots of Eve, the giant tree on the top of the Red Earth Continent.

In fact, even at such a long distance, there are still roots distributed. If Weiwei was directly asked to dig, Zhang Da was also worried that the roots would be damaged and the ecological environment near Fishman Island would be affected.

This requires Mori's ability. He can push the soil and Eve's roots to the side, leaving a passage in the middle.

The ability of the Push-Push Fruit allows you to choose to close the soil after pushing it away, or just push it away.

Weiwei and the workers will follow when Mori pushes the passage open, continue to widen the passage and transport the sand crushed by Weiwei's ability out of the cave.

With the help of two powerful ability users, the tunnel excavation progress is very fast, and the workers are also working hard to do some necessary reinforcement work.

It's a pity that there has been no news about Wapol, otherwise even the step of transporting sand out of the cave can save a lot of effort.

The other members of the Amber Tour Group are not idle either, and they work hard and use flag monsters.

The most powerful ones are Zhang Daye and Wendy, who can provide everyone with strength and speed buffs, greatly speeding up the construction progress.

Tom is even more powerful than them. If he is given a cart, he can push away the sand piled up to dozens of meters high in one breath, and the towering sand is piled into a very steep cone, which shakes when moved.

In the blink of an eye, two months have passed, and a super-large tunnel with a width and height of 400 meters across the red soil continent has smashed the stone walls reserved at both ends of the cave entrance.

The seawater rumbled in, and the front and back ends of the Grand Line were officially connected.

It is said that such a channel will cause certain changes in the ocean currents between Paradise and the New World, which may in turn affect the weather, but it is not clear what will happen.

Zhang Da also knew that he had promised to find a way to help Lab and Brook return to the West Sea together, and now it has finally been achieved. Although the gold reserves have been reduced by a large amount, it is worth it.

Everyone happily drank a celebratory wine on the Anthem, and the News Bird also spread this big news to all parts of the world.

Countless people want to contact the Amber Travel Group through connections to know whether this channel is open to everyone.

Especially the Empress and Jinbei who recently opened a shipping company.

Zhang Da has also thought about this. If the tunnel is left alone, it will definitely cause chaos. He simply entrusted it to the Revolutionary Army for management. After all, Mori has contributed a lot, and Weiwei certainly has a share.

At that time, even if everyone's toll is charged a newspaper price, it will be a considerable amount.

If the World United Government is willing to devote energy to subsequent maintenance, it can also participate.

Let them discuss the specific cooperation by themselves. As for whether to build a few more channels in other places in the future, Zhang Da will not care.

I believe that after operating for a period of time, they will naturally understand the truth that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.

After completing the big project and pushing all the troubles to others, Zhang Da and his companions also embarked on the journey back to the Seven Water City - the construction of Amber Island is almost over.

But as soon as he returned to the Seven Water City, Zhang Da heard a piece of news that made him unhappy.

"To be honest, I actually want to leave the Amber Tour Group."

Perona was surprised and said: "Uncle Yixiao, what are you talking about?"

Wendy's eyes turned into tears: "So suddenly, why..."

Yixiao wants to join the army.

The new navy, that is, the maritime security maintenance force, is different from the previous navy.

They are no longer constrained by the world government, and they really intend to eradicate all pirates. But they are suffering from insufficient manpower and slow progress.

Because of this, many member countries are still not protected. So after seeking the opinions of the coalition government, a conscription notice was issued.

In fact, the Uranus I set is the Sun Tree Eve, and its function of transmitting sunlight to Fishman Island is actually just a side effect.

The real Eve is actually a star that relies on sunlight to accumulate energy, and when it reaches a limit, it can destroy the island in one shot.

However, relying solely on solar energy to accumulate energy is too slow, so it takes a long time to use it once, so the world government needs the energy that Vegapunk is researching, which is the mother flame.

Then Uranus is a plant, Aquaman is an animal, and Pluto is a machine, which is pretty good

-Because it is a bit outrageous, I am worried about being slapped in the face, so I simply didn't write it.
