At the end of December 1518 in the Haiyuan calendar, the 5th World Conference of the Great Pirate Age was officially held.
The first time was in 1502. At that time, the "Pirate King" Gol D. Roger had just died, the "Golden Lion" Shisky escaped from prison and disappeared, and the "Red Earl" Barory Clydefield was arrested and imprisoned. The only remaining achievements in the New World The only remaining great pirate is Edward "Whitebeard" Newgate.
Because of what he said before his execution, the era of great pirates opened by Roger became more and more intense in the past two years.
In order to curb the increasingly rampant pirate activities, the government gathered the participating countries to pass a series of targeted measures in an attempt to suppress the waves.
Well, then the Great Pirate Age reached its peak.
The second time was in 1506, the third time in 1510, the fourth time in 1514, and now the fifth time in 1518.
Over the past 16 years, Charlotte Lingling, Kaido, and Shanks gradually established their own power, defeated challengers one after another, and competed with Whitebeard in the new world. They were called the Four Emperors by the world and ruled the sea!
One thing that can never be escaped in this era is the problem of pirates.
The leaders of the participating countries with different ideas and ulterior motives gathered together under the banner of the World Government, and around the main theme of creating a better world, they began to discuss how to control the pirate chaos again and again without any results.
Many of the franchised countries also started out in the pirate business, and even the leaders of some of the franchised countries were pirates themselves. It’s strange that it would be useful to let this group of people discuss how to deal with pirates!
Ridiculous in the extreme, but extremely realistic.
It was not until the fifth meeting that a small incident that had never been noticed by the participating countries finally broke this inherent routine.
The rebellion of Dorag, which was regarded by the alliance countries as an internal dispute in the navy, finally brought the flames of war to them.
Revolutionary Army, Monkey D Dorag!
What the revolutionary army wants to overthrow is the world government. To overthrow the world government is to deprive the franchised countries of their privileges!
As the saying goes, killing parents who block people's way of making money, how could they, who were used to relying on the government's banner to lord it over them, endure the actions of the revolutionary army? Immediately began to noisily formulate a plan against the revolutionary army.
Just like the plans they made against pirates several times before.
The effect...
Even if you don't look at the "future" in the original work, you can understand it just by looking at the existing "past".
Ron heard all these things through the news and internal channels of the Navy. The six-month ban would not end until February 1519!
Even though Ron really wanted to go to Marigioa to see the excitement, and even Orrick himself thought so, but under the order of the Five Old Stars, Ron couldn't go anywhere until he stayed there for half a year.
The year 1518 of the Haiyuan Calendar passed just like this amidst the noise of the World Conference, without any wind or waves, without any disturbance.
…
A few months later, G10 branch, the large square in front of the fortress.
A thin researcher in a white coat lay on a streamlined silver-white instrument. Caesar Courant circled around with a wrench and screwdriver in his hand, nodded affirmatively, and shouted to Ron.
"Lieutenant General Canglong, the inspection is over, please take action!"
"oh… "
Ron, who had been working at the base for half a year, waved his hand feebly when he heard this. Behind the instrument a few hundred meters away, a bolt of lightning was generated out of thin air and struck the power storage sphere heavily.
Boom! !
Thunder rolls and lightning flashes.
Caesar was immediately shaken to the point of being dizzy, but looking at the rising values on the instrument panel, his eyes were filled with light.
Apart from Ron, there is no other such perfect energy source in the world!
When the value reached a red line, Caesar decisively pressed the switch and started the instrument.
Buzz... Phew! !
The high-frequency vibration was completed thousands of times in just an instant. If Ron hadn't told the soldiers to roll away, the sound waves and air vibrations generated by the vibration alone could have easily killed people.
Then something seemed to fly past everyone's eyes. After waiting in place for a second, a strong explosion suddenly exploded.
Boom!
Boom! !
White mist-like rings of gas and dust bloomed around an air channel that stretched to the end of the line of sight, causing a loud noise that could be clearly heard even from the other side of the island.
Regardless of the cannonballs disappearing on the sea level, Caesar quickly took out a snail with a display screen on the side and scanned it twice, and then he was ecstatic.
"Success!!"
"Perfect rate of fire, perfect range, perfect accuracy, perfect destructive power!!"
"The first version of px electromagnetic gun, completed!"
Zizzi!
"So, the Pacifist PX-5 will be equipped with this weapon as the main means of combat in the future?"
Ron came up curiously, glanced at the screen, and was immediately dizzy by the data that looked like a book from that day. He put his hand on his forehead.
"Of course not. The power consumption of the electromagnetic gun is too terrible. Even pacifists cannot support using it multiple times..."
Caesar was busy recording the data while explaining to Ron politely: "Of course it's not that the electromagnetic gun is not good, it's just because it's too good that it can't be used as a main battle method."
Caesar was kicked out of Marlin Ford to conduct experiments on Ron's G10 for no other reason than because the electromagnetic gun required too much power for each test firing. The generators of the science unit often overheated and were damaged, and the expenses skyrocketed for a while!
As a user with the thunder fruit ability, Ron was forced to take on this glorious "battery" task.
"The existing laser cannons are enough to deal with most pirates, and the electromagnetic gun is the ultimate trump card to determine the outcome!"
Caesar smiled coquettishly, noticing that Ron's expression had improved, and quickly put forward his little idea: "With this success, of course, if Lieutenant General Canglong, you are willing to support me with more funds, the kind of electromagnetic electromagnetic field that can be used by ordinary soldiers." The rifle will definitely be developed soon!”
"Soon...how long?"
"Two years... no, just one year!"
"One year, almost..."
Ron thought for a while, took out a gold bank card issued by the Golden Emperor from his pocket, and threw it to Caesar: "There is one billion Baileys in it. I want to see the goods in a year. Do you understand?"
"Yes!! Guaranteed to complete the mission!!"
Caesar took the gold card excitedly, smiling so hard that he couldn't see his eyes.
Soryu, who is worthy of being the richest man in the navy, has spent billions in money. He is extremely rich!
"Well, come on! If you can make an electromagnetic rifle that can arm ordinary soldiers on a large scale, Vegapunk's pacifist who costs more than a warship will be nothing, right? By then, I'm afraid all fools will understand, who is the real one? He is the world’s number one scientist!”
Ron's voice sounded in Caesar's ears like a devil's whisper. Upon hearing the words, Caesar's eyes radiated hot fire.
yes!
This is the battle of science!
Caesar's blood suddenly boiled when he thought of the scene where Vegapunk bowed his head in front of him.
"clear!!"
Technology is the primary productive force!
History has proven this over time.
There are so many aspects that can be improved in the One Piece world, from communications to ships, from management systems to weapon assembly, and so on.
And if we want to change all this, there is no doubt about the importance of scientists.
Ron has not been idle during the six months of confinement. He does not want to be a firefighter going around putting out fires in the future, suppressing everything with pure force, which will be tiring.
If you want to change the world, then change it thoroughly.
Caesar is a man who loves money and face very much, and Ron is a man who is rich and has face. The two hit it off immediately and worked together.
These cross-era weapons will bring great surprises to the world in the future!
Watching the enthusiastic Caesar return to his research work, Ron smiled with satisfaction, and the next second he flashed and appeared in the office on the top floor of the fortress.
Here, a girl with sky-blue curly hair walked in holding a pile of documents. It was not strange to find a figure suddenly on the empty seat, so she directly picked up the documents and said.
"Your confinement time has ended, and the Marshal just has a task for you."
"No way? How come he does so many things in a day?"
Ron almost choked on his cigar. Hearing this, his face looked constipated and the corners of his mouth twitched.
