Pirates: The Greatest Scoundrel in Navy History

The fighting power of the emperor general level is the top fighting power in this sea. Only by truly stepping into this level can one enter the ranks of "gold medal players".

This is the threshold between the truly strong and the weak. Some people cannot cross it even if they work hard for a lifetime, but there are also some monsters with talents like demons who can easily enter this magnificent palace.

The flying squirrel's own potential is already good enough, and with the thunder fruit given by Darren now, it is not impossible for him to step into this level.

Hearing Darren's words, the flying squirrel rolled his eyes.

This guy said it easily, but in fact, no one except himself knows how much time and energy the flying squirrel has spent in the past six months to develop the power of the thunder fruit.

What the flying squirrel did not tell others was that when he watched Darren's strength become stronger day by day, an indescribable sense of anxiety and urgency was constantly growing in the former's heart.

It was not because of jealousy.

But he was always afraid that he could not keep up with Darren's pace.

What if... Although this seems unlikely to happen... But what if... One day, Darren, who is as strong as a monster, encounters an invincible enemy, or falls into a life-or-death dilemma...

What if at that time, he needs the help of his deputy, but he is too weak to support him?

The flying squirrel didn't dare to imagine that scene at all.

As if he saw something, Darren patted the flying squirrel on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"Don't put so much pressure on yourself, many things will be fine if you let them take their course."

"How has the fleet developed recently?"

Speaking of business, the flying squirrel immediately entered the working state, and his expression quickly became serious:

"It's not bad. With the foundation you have laid, the situation in the North Sea is quite stable."

"As for the Don Quixote family, since he gave Doflamingo a reminder last time, he has been much more obedient, and the fleet's tax revenue has shown a steady upward trend overall."

Darren nodded.

He knew the "warning" that Flying Squirrel gave to Doflamingo, which was why he gave the Thunder Fruit to Flying Squirrel.

"That kid Doflamingo has this kind of personality, arrogant and defiant, and sometimes I really don't know how to discipline him. Without a good solution, only a practical lesson can make him behave a little better."

Darren said with emotion.

Flying Squirrel: "..."

You really put yourself in the role of "father".

"... You caused such a big incident in the New World this time, and it is estimated that the Don Quixote family will behave a lot for a long time."

"Tsk tsk tsk, the fleet of Golden Lion Shiki was annihilated by you... You are really cruel, I heard that Golden Lion is a guy who will take revenge for any slight?"

When he said the last sentence, there was a hint of worry and vigilance in the tone of Flying Squirrel.

Darren smiled disapprovingly and said:

"I don't think I will leave the headquarters in the short term, what can he do?"

"If he really dares to come to Marinford, then I am really looking forward to it."

A fierce killing intent flashed in Darren's eyes. He raised his hand and gently stroked the knife wound on his chest that was still aching, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"I remember the knife he cut me with clearly."

The flying squirrel was speechless, and then smiled with relief.

Is the Golden Lion Shiki vindictive?

Maybe.

But the flying squirrel knew very well that the guy in front of him was not a good person.

Darren was a madman who dared to kill the Celestial Dragons just because he was in a bad mood!

A year has passed since the shocking "Dragon Incident". During this time, Flying Squirrel has been thinking about why Darren took such a huge risk to kill Sildes Saint.

Was it because he felt pity for the civilian father and daughter?

Maybe.

But with Darren's calm personality, he would never do such an impulsive thing because of momentary pity;

Was it because of his pride and responsibility as the "King of the North Sea", and because of the rule he set that "you must do things if you receive money"?

Maybe.

But Flying Squirrel knows that responsibility, obligations, rules, and other things are actually insignificant to Darren.

...These are not the reasons why Darren took action.

The real reason why Darren took action to kill Sildes Saint, the arrogant Dragon, was actually hidden in the last sentence Darren said to himself that day.

——"That guy's face is so disgusting that I have the urge to kill him... or the kind that I can't control no matter what."

I saw himI don't like him. He makes me feel bad, so I want to kill him... Even if he is a Celestial Dragon, it doesn't matter.

This is the "justice" practiced by Darren.

——"Justice as you wish".

Golden Lion Shiki may have set his sights on Darren, but hasn't Darren already set his sights on Golden Lion?

Flying Squirrel has never seen Darren suffer at the hands of anyone.

"By the way, how is the development of the fleet's laser weapons going?"

Darren remembered what Borsalino said.

A smile appeared on the flying squirrel's face, and he said:

"It went smoothly."

"Vinsmoke Judge is indeed one of the top scientists in this sea. He has successfully deconstructed the energy core of the laser weapon and transformed it."

"According to my current development progress of the Thunder Fruit, each charge of the laser weapon takes 3 minutes. After one charge, it can release at least 50 laser cannons."

"In the past six months, the size of the fleet has expanded from the original 10 ships to 20 warships, and it is still expanding steadily at a rate of two ships per month."

"As of now, our North Sea Fleet now has a total of 20 main battleships, each of which is equipped with at least 5 laser cannons and 5 conventional heavy artillery, and there are also 8 supply warships."

"According to your previous idea, it is estimated that in the second half of the year, the size of the North Sea Fleet will expand to about 25 ships, and all the weapons carried will be updated and replaced, officially forming a large-scale maritime combat fleet."

Darren nodded with satisfaction.

He recognized the working ability of the flying squirrel, especially in handling military affairs. He was more patient and even better than himself.

Although he had gradually withdrawn from the daily affairs of the North Sea Fleet, Darren also gave a blueprint for the development of the fleet with the vision and knowledge of modern people.

A modern maritime fleet far beyond this era!

Replace the traditional wooden structure with high-quality alloys, replace natural wind power with efficient energy as power, and replace backward gunpowder shells with advanced laser weapons...

After the transformation of Germa 66, the warships of the North Sea Fleet have gradually taken on some shadows of modern battleships.

The cost of manufacturing, transformation, weapons and other aspects of the warships is more than five times that of the warships of the same level in the Navy Headquarters!

If Darren had not plundered the wealth of the Sky Island Golden Town, he would not have been able to build such a terrifying fleet even if he emptied the entire North Sea.

And this North Sea Fleet, armed to the teeth, will also become his most powerful force and confidence in the future!
