Pirates: The first companion is Tom Cat

Weiwei's speech was considered a great success, at least for a child under ten years old, she was outstanding enough.

Kobra, who was always ready to help save the situation, finally only said a few words and concluding remarks before calling it a night.

Weiwei, who came back from her speech, was unanimously praised by everyone and received admiring looks from the little sisters.

Binz, who serves as the Navy's 'goodwill ambassador', said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty the King, it looks like she will be a very amazing princess."

"I hope so. This is also thanks to the Navy's care of Weiwei during that time." Cobra said, "By the way, are we going to test those experimental forests today?"

Binz nodded and said, "Yes, I'm ready. Do you want to go with me?"

"Of course, this is a very important matter." Kobra attaches great importance to the survival of the plants that Binz used his abilities to generate, which is related to the subsequent series of construction plans.

If successful, Alabasta's development could be accelerated by years.

Binzi may not know the significance of this matter yet, but if it is really done, Kobra will have the intention to build a statue for him in the Royal Capital Square, and is even willing to wait until Binzi dies to invite his ashes to the funeral hall. It has been worshiped by the royal family for generations.

Everyone made some preparations and set off for the experimental forest in the north of the royal capital.

In addition to Cobra, he was accompanied by Zhang Tatsuya, Tom and Artoria, as well as a team of guards led by Jaka.

Icarim will stay at the palace to handle affairs, while Bell will go to patrol various ports.

Everyone else also had their own things they wanted to do, especially Weiwei who took her friends and ran away right after her speech, without even having time to change out of her dress.

Judging from their looks, I guess they won't be able to look at those beautiful dresses when they come back.

…

The experimental forest is far from the capital, and it doesn't take much time on the road, so I just travel by camel.

As the camel team stopped, Zhang Da also looked around: "This place looks familiar."

Tom spread his hands. Isn't it the same everywhere in the desert?

Artoria said: "This is where we fought against Crocodile before."

"Yes, it's right here." Kobra confirmed, "I was kidnapped by Crocodile at that time. Thanks to you for rescuing me, Mr. Ye Yan is really resourceful."

"Thank you for your compliment." Zhang Da also complained. You left the battlefield too early and didn't see his embarrassed appearance hiding under the Chaos Beast.

However, Zhang Da also discovered that Kobra might be a bit vindictive. Although this was not the place where Crocodile died, it was also the place where he suffered a big loss.

Setting up an experimental forest here... wouldn't that mean Binz would dance on Crocodile's grave?

Not to mention, the way Binz activates his abilities is really like a disco!

You ruthless man, I am not as good as you.

Kobra noticed the change in Zhang Daye's eyes and felt a little baffled.

At this time, Binz pointed to the green spaces in front and said: "That's right ahead. According to the original plan, the first one is all vines and grasslands grown from grass seeds, the second one is all flowers, vines and shrubs, and the third one is all made of vines and grasslands grown from grass seeds. Arbors were added to the film..."

"Considering the special environment of the desert, I specially strengthened the roots of each plant to allow them to take root deeper and stronger."

Since Binz accepted this task, he naturally did his homework carefully instead of relying solely on his ability. Every piece of woodland here was planned according to the plan he discussed with the botanists in Alabasta.

In order to do things well, Binz also deliberately studied the characteristics of various plants such as cactus, tamarisk, poplar euphratica, etc. Although this was not what he wanted to do at the beginning, his attitude was definitely considered conscientious.

Everyone walked closer to the forest to check, and Zhang Da also found that there were many plants here that looked familiar, but seemed different. Some simply had the characteristics of several plants at the same time, as if they were grafted.

Facing his question, Binz explained: "Because they are all specially adjusted. Botanists say that it would be more beneficial to have more types of plants, but not every kind is suitable for growing here, so I Adjustments were made according to their suggestions.”

Good guy, he is a great druid. Zhang Da also asked: "If the plants you have adjusted produce seeds, will they still retain these traits?"

Binz glanced at him in surprise: "Mr. Tatsuya seemed to have said a very professional word, and the question he asked was the same as those botanists are concerned about. Do you also have a lot of research on plants?"

"...You said the word 'trait'?" Zhang Da was also stunned for a moment. This is basic high school biology knowledge, Mendel's pea experiment...

However, he could only explain: "I happened to read in a book that some plant traits are heritable, but some are not."

Binz nodded: "Unfortunately, none of the characteristics that appear after being adjusted by my ability can be inherited. For example, the thick vine will still be ordinary grass after its seeds grow out."

Jaka interjected: "In this case, except for the trees with relatively long lifespan, do other plants have to rely on you to sow seeds once a year?"

"Of course not. As long as you can successfully create a forest and let it last for a few years, it will naturally gradually become a place that is also suitable for the growth of other plants." Binz said, "Don't underestimate the power of nature."

Zhang Da didn't express his position either. He didn't understand the power of nature in this world very well.

Logically speaking, the oasis should be eroded by the desert, right?

But since Binz said so, he must have done some research.

Walking through the woods, Kobra put his hand on the trunk of a large tree more than five meters high: "What an incredible ability."

Normally, a tree this tall and thick takes several years or more than ten years to grow, but here in Binz, it only takes a dance.

Binz poured a basin of cold water on it: "Actually, I can't produce too many trees of this size every day. It would be better if they were small shrubs."

Kobra was not disappointed at all: "This is already amazing. Planting trees in the desert has never been an easy task."

Zhang Da also thought about it and decided to give the young man a bowl of chicken soup: "Binzi, don't forget Mr. Zefa's teachings. If you think you can't give birth to too many children now, it must be because you don't exercise enough. Think about it carefully. , the three generals of our headquarters can change the landscape in an instant."

"How can I compare with the general..."

"Why not? There is no distinction between strong and weak abilities. The person who limits the ability is always the person with the ability." Zhang Da also stood and spoke without pain in his back, and questioned, "Tell me the truth, after graduating from the recruit camp Did you feel that you could do it alone after that, so you slacked off?"

"I..." Binzi felt a little ashamed. After graduation, he was indeed not as diligent as before.

This is natural. Without the supervision of Zefa on the one hand, and the classmates who are working hard together on the other hand, it is human nature to relax.

Smoker is the best example. If he hadn't been severely beaten by Zhang Daye during his internship, was headbutted by Vergo after graduation, and then beaten severely by Zhang Daye, he would definitely not be as diligent as he is now.

Zhang Daye said earnestly: "Don't live up to Mr. Zefa's expectations of you. From today on, continue to work hard to train your physical fitness and abilities. Let me set a small goal for you. Within two months, you can transform the plants you can control." times."

"Okay!" Binzi, who had just graduated and still had some fighting spirit left, was encouraged by Zhang Daye.

This time it was Cobra who felt a little guilty.

How about another salary increase?
