In the new world, there are many islands that are recognized as extremely dangerous, and Thunder God Island is one of them.
Due to the special climatic conditions, this island is in the midst of thunderstorms all year round. The sky is full of black dark clouds, which has been shrouded in the sky above the island. The violent purple lightning strikes the land of the island every moment. , The entire Thunder God Island is a cage of lightning, and it is impossible to find a landing point.
And perhaps because of the perennial lightning strikes, a stone that can store the power of lightning was produced on this island, which is the original mine of Thunder Stone.
But Thor Island is not suitable for human habitation, and it is naturally impossible to mine raw ore. Varudo discovered this gem island by accident, and after research, he discovered that this island used to be a part of Thor Island. Two or three hundred years ago, it was only split from Thunder God Island. Under the shallow veins of this island, there are naturally some thunder stone deposits.
When the world government and the navy closed the research institute and almost killed Varudo, this incident has always made him worry about it, so after occupying the island and starting to mine Thunder Stone, Varudo studied the purpose of Thunder Stone , I just want to use the thunder stone to make a powerful weapon, and then retaliate against the world government and navy.
As the saying goes, faces are born from the heart, and Varudo is actually very insidious. Although he has the idea of revenge in his heart, he is able to cooperate with the world government on the surface, and by providing them with some Thunder Stones in exchange for what he needs Research funds, after all, scientific research is quite expensive.
The world government and the navy, I'm afraid they would never have imagined in their dreams that the real purpose of Varudo's cooperation with them is actually to bite them back...
Since research requires a lot of money, it is naturally impossible for Varudo to have too much money to invest in the army. He can only squeeze the miners on the island to force them to provide him with a steady stream of raw materials. He didn't put it into consideration for the country and the people, so over time, the unbearable citizens began to rebel against him.
In this world, there are indeed very few pirates who can be good kings. After realizing that the momentum was wrong, Varudo's first thought was not to appease the people, but to suppress them.
He took out part of the money and hired more than 3,000 pirates, and he didn't care what they did. He only told them to suppress the wave of resistance, so the pirates who took chicken feathers as arrows adopted their own the best way.
This is the scene of the massacre that Ian and the others saw after they landed on the island.
But now, due to an inexplicable appearance of Qibuhai, all the pirates hired by Varudo have run away. Varudo does not have enough manpower available. When the next counterattack of the rebel army comes, he will probably Kicked off the king's throne, when the rebel army will occupy his palace, all research will be burned.
Varudo couldn't bear the thought of the possibility of recreating the scene where the institute was bombed back then. He didn't want to repeat the painful experience at the beginning.
"Habs! Habs!" Varudo shouted the names of his confidants.
Hubs appeared soon, ran to Varudo, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
"Contact that Shichibukai named Ian, and say that I hope he can protect me, the king!" Varudo said: "The price is whatever you want, but the premise is that he will deter the uprising of those damn miners! "
"Your Majesty!" Habs said with some embarrassment: "He has been staying on this island, and he probably came here for the Thunder Stone. Those miners have discovered the secret of the Thunder Stone, and he may have known it if it was leaked. Otherwise, there is nothing we want on this island, how could he, a Qibukai, stay here forever?"
"It's okay, you go and tell him! If you cooperate with me, I can provide him with a part of the Thunder Stone!" Varudo gritted his teeth.
"Is this really good?" Habs was still very worried, and said, "What if he wants to completely control the Thunder Stone in his hands?"
"Don't worry, as long as it takes a while, my Thunder Roar Cannon will be successfully developed, so what if it's Qiwuhai?" Varudo said a little proudly.
After receiving Varudo's order, Habs went down. He returned to the hotel in the city and found Ian.
"Oh? Is that what your king said?" Ian was a little surprised. He didn't expect that in the news from Habs, Varudo actually guessed his purpose and directly expressed that he could provide him with a part of the Thunder Stone. .
In fact, Ian has not been idle during this time. He has been studying the small piece of thunder stone crystal that Kona Nayi got. Because of the Misaka Mikoto card, Ian can also control the power of thunder and lightning. I once tried to see if I could absorb the electrical energy in the Thunder Stone, but found that it didn't work.
However, although it cannot be absorbed, Ian may take out the electric energy inside and use it. Originally, skills such as the iron sand sword and the super electromagnetic gun will consume a lot of his mental energy, but if he holds the thunder stone in his hand and uses it , Ian found that he didn't need to consume his own mind power!
In other words, if there are enough Thunder Stones for him to use, he can completely treat the Thunder Stones as a kind of external storage...
Although Ian has broken through the master-level Nian practice skill now, and can use the Thunderbolt Sword of the Paojie card and the last thunderbolt of the profound art, this amazingly powerful skill, even with the 25% reduction in the consumption of the master-level Nian practice, can still be used. It also consumes a lot of money for Ian, so it would be a good idea to get a large amount of Thunder Stone to use as a blue bottle.
However, although Varudo felt that he had made a huge concession, how did he know that what Ian wanted was not the Thunder Stone he supplied at all, but to completely control the production of the Thunder Stone in his own hands.
Because in addition to using it for himself, Ian also wants to use it to make deals with the world government and make a lot of money from them.
Ian was thinking quickly in his mind. He also knew that revealing his true purpose now would only make Varudo more vigilant. Now that he has agreed to cooperate with him, it is a good start, so don’t in a hurry.
Therefore, Yi Jianzuo was very satisfied and said: "Very good, then it's settled like this, 300 million Baileys, plus a part of Thunder Stones for me, I can provide shelter for your king!"
300 million Baileys, this money is really amazing as an employment fee, but Habs is very happy because Ian agreed.
The deterrent power of a Qiwuhai is higher than that of a dozen pirate groups. With Qiwuhai's promise, Varudo and the others will definitely feel at ease for a while.
Of course, Habs also knows that one cannot easily trust a pirate, even Shichibukai, but the most important thing for them is to buy time. As long as there is a certain time buffer, His Majesty Varudo's research is successful, he can defeat any enemy!
"So, can I meet your king?" Ian asked.
"Of course, His Majesty Varudo will welcome you very much!" Hubbs said.
… … … … … … …
Later that afternoon, Ian finally entered Varudo's palace.
As a small country, the royal palace is nothing unusual, it is very small and does not look very luxurious, but Ian still secretly keeps the environment along the way in mind.
In the palace, Ian finally saw this Varudo, who is also a scientist, a pirate, and a king. Varudo's face full of scars, coupled with his sinister eyes, made Ian When he saw him for the first time, he felt very uncomfortable. He knew very well that it was impossible for such a person to force him to tell his secrets through torture.
Although Varudo was smiling all the time when they met, he was also secretly looking at Ian. Although Ian looked young, Varudo did not dare to be careless, and carefully tested Ian's feelings with words. personality.
Ian knew the truth of talking too much, so he didn't say much. After Varudo invited him to have dinner, Ian proposed that he wanted to see the refinery of Leidongshi.
Ian originally thought that Varudo might refuse, but he didn't expect that he would agree directly.
There is nothing unusual about visiting the refinery, and Ian doesn’t really understand it. It’s nothing more than looking at piles of ore, which are sent into the furnace with the conveyor belt, and then after many processes, they become some Small pieces of thunderstone crystals were sent out.
After Ian looked at it for a while, he left, and Waludo personally sent him out.
As soon as he left the palace and joined Kona Nay and the others who were waiting outside, Ian's expression darkened immediately, and he said in a low voice: "There is a problem, the refining of the Thunder Stone is probably nothing special, but Varudo must have hidden it." some other stuff!"
