Chapter 427 Spy Shadow [13.9k]

In the first half of the Great Channel, Akainu stood in front of the warship of the Zanya Detachment, with his arms folded, enjoying the sea breeze. Although the sea breeze made his eyes barely open, he still enjoyed it very much.

"I'm going to have a warship like this soon."

He secretly sighed, thinking that after he owns such a warship, the efficiency of catching pirates will definitely be much higher, completely forgetting that he is almost not allowed to leave Marin Fando now.

And the task of catching pirates, or ordinary cruising tasks, is almost not his turn to perform. Giving him a warship is just to give the navy headquarters a boost, and at the same time make Akainu happy.

Skyler, who has long been accustomed to the speed of warships, is sitting at the front of the deck at this time, a little behind where Akainu is. Unlike the front, the sinking design of the steps here is not so big. The sea breeze blows.

In fact, the warships of the Zhanye Detachment seldom move forward with the full power output of today, after all, it is very energy-inefficient, especially now on the warships, there is only Enilo, a natural fruit ability user who is completely uncooperative.

For the same distance, a warship advancing at full speed consumes more than 20% more energy than the normal cruising speed, but today was specially ordered by Tsuru, in order to draw a cake for Akainu.

While eating snacks, Skyler felt something was wrong as he saw the energy storage dwindling. If things continued like this, when the warship arrived at the capital of seven waters, the energy storage would almost be exhausted.

If there are some emergencies at that time, it will be really difficult to solve.

After thinking for a while, Skyler set her sights on Akainu who was blowing the wind, her smile gradually emerged, she stood up, and walked towards Akainu.

"Admiral Akainu, what do you think of the speed of the warship?"

Even with sunglasses on, the strong sea breeze made Skyler squint his eyes. Akainu heard the words, nodded with a smile, and said, "This is completely crushing for pirates!"

"There is another module on the warship that you will definitely be very interested in."

Hearing this, Akainu asked suspiciously: "Is it a gravity engine?"

Skyler shook his head and said, "That's just an additional function. There is a module, especially suitable for people with natural fruit abilities like you."

"oh?"

Akainu showed a curious expression, Skyler turned around, gestured to the direction of the cabin, and said, "General Akainu, please come with me, you will understand."

Seeing Skyler's rare trickery, Akainu became more interested, followed Skyler into the cabin, and kept going down to the bottom where the engine was located.

Schuyler pushed the door and opened a cabin whose inner walls were all covered with sea floor stone coating, and introduced: "Admiral Akainu, this is an energy conversion module that was born out of Vega Punk's design and transformed by Major General Deborah.

It can absorb the natural energy produced by people with natural fruit abilities when using fruit abilities, and convert this energy into the energy storage of warships.

If you are such a strong natural fruit ability user, even with this kind of full power speed output and continuous combat, you can maintain it for a long time. "

Hearing this, Akainu subconsciously walked towards the strange device in the middle of the cabin. It was a platform, and there were two sleeves hanging from the ceiling above.

There is also a screen between the two sleeves, showing the current energy storage status of the warship. Seeing that only about half of the energy storage is left, Akainu thought for a while and asked:

"Is the energy conversion fast?"

Skyler really doesn't know this question, because when Ace was there before, the output speed of his burning fruit hadn't reached the upper limit of the device's absorption and transformation.

In other words, there is still a greater potential of this device that has not been tapped. Skyler shook his head and said truthfully: "When Ace was here before, I couldn't test the upper limit."

Hearing this, Akainu said, "Ace is still just a child, and his use of fruits is superficial. Lieutenant General Skyler, if possible, I would like to give it a try."

Seeing Akainu taking the initiative to get into the trap, Skyler couldn't hide his joy, and said, "It's just right, you can also help me test the upper limit of this machine. I believe Major General Deborah needs these materials very much."

"Um."

Akainu stepped onto the platform and looked at the two sleeves. Although there was no one to guide him, he still put his hands in them.

"Ka~ka~"

The outside of the sleeve is composed of rings. At this time, the rings are constantly rotating, and the ratchet sound appears. Akainu feels that the sleeve is shrinking, wrapping his arms little by little.

After Akainu felt a slight squeeze from his arms and hands, the sleeve stopped shrinking. He looked at Skyler and asked, "Can I start now?"

Skyler nodded, and Akainu also focused on the screen in the middle of the sleeve, seeing that it showed "57%" remaining energy, he decided to try it with about half of the power first.

"Buzz buzz buzz~~~"

When he started to activate the magma ability, the two sleeves and the hanging mechanical arm suddenly vibrated, and the cabin became extremely hot in an instant.

Skyler raised his eyebrows. When Ace used this device, there was no such change. The energy emitted by his burning fruit was perfectly extracted by that device.

Looking at Akainu's state of being so relaxed that he didn't even move his expression, Skyler knew that Akainu must have not used all his strength, or even barely exerted any effort. This energy-absorbing device already showed signs of collapsing.

Seeing this, Akainu did not dare to continue to increase the force, but stabilized first. The mechanical arm was still vibrating, but fortunately nothing more wrong happened.

On the screen, the icon representing the remaining energy is also constantly jumping at a frequency of more than ten seconds.

"This speed is good. If it can be a little stronger, it should be faster?"

Akainu murmured, at this time there were footsteps outside the door.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk ~"

After knocking on the door briefly and quickly, Skyler said, "Come in."

The cabin door was pushed open, and Nurkic, who was holding a monitoring tablet, walked up, his face was a little anxious, but after seeing Akainu standing on the platform, he instantly understood.

"Sorry, General Akainu, sir. Someone reported that the energy storage data was abnormal just now. I thought the machine was broken, so I came here to check the situation."

Hearing this, Akainu nodded, then looked at Schuyler, and said, "Lieutenant General Schuyler, this device is a good thing, and get one for me when the time comes."

Skyler looked at Nurkic and said, "General Akainu, telling Nurkic about this is more useful than telling me."

Akainu was a little confused, and Skyler continued: "Major Admiral Deborah is Nurkic's wife, and because of Nurkic, Deborah left Punk Hazard and officially joined the Navy."

"Thank you for your service to the Navy!"

After hearing Skyler's explanation, Akainu looked at Nurkic, showed admiration, and said very seriously.

Nurkic became very embarrassed, hesitated, and said, "Deborah and I are... true love."

Although Deborah was not present, he still had to say such a thing, not only because it was true, but also because Skyler hardly cared about the occasion when he spoke. Maybe one day, the conversation here today would get out.

If he doesn't say such things now, it will be difficult in the future.

It's just that Akainu didn't care at all. He felt the sleeves of his hands slowly loosen. He looked at the screen, but saw that the remaining energy on the screen was only 90%. He asked with some doubts:

"Why can't we continue?"

Nurkic glanced at the tablet in his hand and said: "Sorry, General Akainu, it seems that the charging speed is too fast, in order to protect the energy storage module, the energy conversion has been actively cut off.

At the time of design, I was afraid that too much energy would influx and damage the energy storage module, but...it has never happened before. The remaining energy needs to be replenished in a more gentle way. "

The so-called gentle way is probably the full output of Ace before going to the headquarters, after all, he has never encountered such a problem.

Let's put it this way, Ace is a 5V1A, full power is not enough to reach the boundary of battery self-protection, and Akainu, even if it is only a half-power output, is also a 100W fast charge. Although the agreement can support it, it still has power-off protection. .

Looking at the energy storage that has never been fully charged, Akainu became less interested, but said to Nurkic: "After the completion of my new warship, I need Major General Deborah to come over and renovate it."

Nurkic thought about it, and it would take at least three or four months to order such a ship, and it would probably take longer to get the engine from Dr. Bergapunk.

If his wife's body has not fully recovered by that time, and it takes a little longer, Akainu will probably not refuse, after all, Deborah is not a member of the Akainu detachment.

But Nurkic thought for a while, and said: "My wife is pregnant, and I can't participate in work in the short term. Please forgive me, General Akainu."

Before Nurkic finished speaking, Akainu said: "It's okay, let your wife rest assured to have a baby first, I have been waiting for this warship for more than ten years, not less than a year and a half!"

Although there is no way to fully charge the warship, Akainu's mood is not so beautiful, but. Compared with the previous bitterness and hatred, Akainu's current mood can be regarded as excellent.

Seeing that he didn't need to show up at all, Skyler smiled even more, and silently gave himself a full score for this wave of operations, which not only recharged the warship, but also made Akainu owe Zanya Detachment another favor.

Although Deborah is not affiliated with the Zanya detachment, but without the Zanya detachment and Nurkic, Akainu would not even be able to get on line with Deborah.

After all, the troops that Deborah is affiliated with are also one of the secret troops belonging to the Navy. These secret troops are only directly under the detachment commander and Marshal Warring States, but even the general cannot be transferred at will.

Just like the Yehuang detachment, if it wasn't for Skyler and Warring States' orders, other people would not be able to dispatch this detachment. Of course, Rossindi and others dispatched it because he was in charge of Skyler's duties.

Therefore, if Skyler or Nurkic did not come forward, Akainu would not even have the opportunity to contact Deborah, so he naturally owed Zanya Detachment a favor.

Although things like debt of favor may not be able to tie a rigid person like Akainu, but Akainu is never static.

When the day comes when Akainu becomes like most navies, it will become quite valuable to have Akainu's debt of favor. After all, this is a general's debt of favor.

What's more, letting others owe a debt of favor is better than offending others, right?

Of course, if the other party is CP, or other organizations of the world government, then that's another matter. After all, Skyler is willing to have both sides in the navy, because she cares about this place.

Akainu followed Skyler and Nurkic reluctantly, and left the small black room. Afterwards, when Nurkic took Akainu to introduce other equipment in the warship, Akainu was not interested.

Even when introducing weapons, he wasn't very happy either.

After all, the weapons on the warships of the Zanya Detachment all miss the abilities of Kizaru, and as a fellow of Kizaru and half a friend, Akainu will not be surprised by these things.

Of course, if these weapons can become his abilities, he will definitely be very happy. Think about how cool it is to shoot a ghost dog and a meteor volcano after the cannon is set up?

After a brief tour of the warship, Akainu had just returned to the deck, planning to experience the high-speed sea breeze again, but found that the speed of the warship seemed to have dropped at this time.

Looking again, an island has appeared in the distance, it is the capital of seven waters, which is the destination of their trip, which makes Akainu feel a little unfinished.

'When you return to Marin Fando, you must stand here and blow the whole wind! '

Thinking about things in my heart, the warship is getting closer and closer to the port of the capital of seven waters. At this time, there is finally something that can distract Akainu.

Looking at the pirates on the port, Akainu's face gradually became cold, even harsh, and a trace of heat radiated from him.

"General Red Dog."

Skyler walked up to Akainu and spoke, Akainu nodded and said, "I understand, I won't be impulsive."

"no."

Skyler shook his head and said, "Give me a hand?"

He was puzzled for a second, but Akainu quickly understood what Skyler meant. Where Skyler wanted to stop him, he clearly wanted to join the team.

Akainu smiled, but it was very ferocious, nodded, and said, "Minimize the damage!"

I don't know whether this sentence was said to Skyler or to himself, but the warship approached the port of the capital of seven waters, and many pirates recognized the ship.

If it is other generals, they may be able to accept coexistence with the pirates for a short time. After all, the capital of the seven waters is a relatively "neutral" city, whether it is the navy or the pirates, it needs such a place as the capital of the seven waters.

Moreover, when the navy comes to the capital of seven waters, it usually comes with missions, some to order warships, and some to supervise the construction of sea trains like before, and generally they will not attack pirates.

But Skyler left. When she was on duty in the twenty-sixth team, she dared to kill pirates in the capital of seven waters, let alone Skyler now.

Now Skyler, there is only one place she will not enter, and that is the sea of ​​​​Whitebeard.

Not only that, Whitebeard Sea Territory is not because she is afraid of Whitebeard, but because the Navy cannot be the one who violated the contract before Whitebeard's side first tore up the treaty.

The Navy needs credibility, so it would rather take more time and effort to go through the windless zone than break the contract and go to the Whitebeard Sea.

And besides the Whitebeard Sea Territory? Where is Skyler afraid to make a move? Seven capitals of water "neutral"? That's for most people, and Skyler is definitely not one of them.

Therefore, the pirates have already started to flee at this time, and some pirates who reacted slower, when they reacted, were too scared to run away.

Because on the warship, not only Skyler is an outlier, but also Akainu, a general who is famous for his brutality!

"clank~"

A pirate who was picking out a sword at a stall in the port dropped the long knife that had just been paid for in his hand. Seeing the two figures at the fence, his legs began to swing, and he murmured:

"It's over."

On the warship, Akainu reached out and pressed the brim of his navy cap, and said, "Three minutes. Lieutenant General Skyler, let's use the time of the last round of the ring as the bottom line for this time."

Akainu also knows that he came to the capital of seven waters to cooperate, so even he must restrain his disgust and anger towards pirates and not act recklessly.

Hearing that Akainu was so understanding and reasonable, Skyler was a little surprised, but he also nodded and said, "Let's just take three minutes, it's not easy to deal with too much nonsense."

"Well, start!"

As the red dog said, the two figures disappeared from the warship in an instant, and in the next instant, two figures appeared on the pier of the capital of seven waters, one holding two black knives, and the other turning into billowing magma.

"Sasa Sasa~"

"Boom boom boom~"

In the next moment, the two of them shuttled among the fleeing pirates, and one brought countless sword shadows. Wherever she passed, not only the fleeing pirates fell down.

On the other side, the pirates quickly turned into scorched earth, and the magma left on their bodies was still eroding the stony ground, which was extremely terrifying.

In less than three minutes, even less than two minutes, there was no longer a living pirate within the port area.

Akainu looked in the direction of the commercial street not far away, his nose constantly twitched, and the magma in his hand kept churning, as if a giant magma fist might be blasted away at any time.

"Dah~"

Skyler dodged and came to her side, and the two black knives were sheathed at the same time. Skyler looked at Akainu and said, "It seems that I shouldn't make a move."

It's not a very clear dissuasion, but it can be regarded as a reminder to Akainu. Akainu nodded, took a long breath, and said, "Let's go here, it's just some pirates running errands."

As he spoke, the magma that was constantly surging on his hands began to disappear, turning into hands again, and there was not even a trace of burns on his sleeves.

This reminded Skyler of Ace, who just got the burnt fruit, but did he just burn the clothes? Sure enough, Akainu's ability to develop and control the fruit is far beyond what Ace can match.

In the original book, even after joining the Whitebeard Pirates, Ace's development and control of the fruit is not so profound. When weaving a hat for Little Oz, he burned it several times.

When the warship drifted into storage, after Nurkic and a few people got off the warship, a group of people also came towards the port on the street in the distance.

It is the representatives of various shipbuilding companies, or the current presidents.

One of the reasons why this place is called the capital of seven waters is that this island has seven large docks, which are managed by seven companies.

And Tom, who has been executed, his Tom Shipbuilding Company is one of the seven major companies, but now Tom's student, the current president of Tom Bingshan, initiated the merger initiative.

The other six shipbuilding companies are also jointly promoting, and other large and small shipbuilding companies in the capital of seven waters have been involved in this merger proposal.

However, the merger is still in the negotiation period. After all, each company has its own unique skills and expertise in different technologies, and its inherent user groups and annual income are also different.

Therefore, if you want to merge, you have to merge the functions, technologies, and customer groups of each company, and it must not affect their original earnings too much.

After all, the premise of agreeing to the merger is that everyone can make money together, everyone can still make money together, and everyone can make more money together. If it is just a continuous loss, then it is better not to merge.

And the merger has many advantages. For example, in the past, if a pirate group ordered a ship from a certain shipbuilding company, but there was no final payment, they left directly.

Then when the pirate group still needs to build a new pirate ship, they can go to another shipbuilding company. Some crazy and lucky pirates can even get more than seven pirate ships for nothing.

And when the shipbuilding companies are merged, the customer base is shared, and any news is also shared, if pirates dare to do this, they must be prepared that there will be no good pirate ships to use in the future.

After all, as far as the current situation is concerned, looking at the whole world, there is no place where the shipbuilding industry is as developed as the capital of the seven waters, and there is no place that can build better ships than the capital of the seven waters.

The presidents of the seven major companies, as well as the leaders of some small and medium-sized shipbuilding companies, are gathering for a meeting today. Halfway through the meeting, they heard a report from their subordinates that Vice Admiral Schuyler and Admiral Akainu of the Navy arrived. The capital of seven waters.

Everyone quickly stopped the meeting and hurried over.

Akainu and Schuyler looked at each other, looked at the people coming from a distance, vaguely centered on Bingshan, the current president of Tom Shipbuilding Company, and knew that the navy's previous judgment was not wrong.

Sure enough, Bingshan was the one most likely to be the first president after the company merged.

Everyone came to the front of Skyler and Akainu, and the leading Bingshan greeted them: "Admiral Akainu, Lieutenant General Schuyler, I am Bingshan, the president of Tom Shipbuilding Company, welcome to the capital of seven waters, is there a ship?" Is there a need to order?"

Akainu and Skyler nodded, and seeing that the presidents of other shipbuilding companies did not speak, they knew that even if the merger negotiations had not ended, a preliminary consensus had been reached.

Thinking about this a few times in his mind, Skyler smiled and said, "Iceberg, right? Our navy is going to order a warship this time."

"One."

Bingshan was a little puzzled, because when the navy and other organizations of the world government ordered ships, they ordered them batch by batch. There had never been a requirement to order only one ship like today.

Skyler didn't speak either, but gestured to Nurkic behind him, and Nurkic commanded the people on standby on the warship to come down.

In the next moment, the engine of the warship roared, and the sound of the engine like a beast shocked the presidents of these shipbuilding companies. As people who have been immersed in the shipbuilding industry for many years, they can judge that the power of this warship is surging. .

But it didn't stop, Nurkic continued to command, and soon, the warship slowly floated up until it broke away from the water and was suspended in the air.

"This this."

Bingshan's expression at this time was as if the iceberg was melting, and the sweat continued to flow. He looked up at the warship floating in the air and was very shocked.

"Our navy wants to order a hull that can perfectly carry such an engine, can you do it?"

Schuyler also glanced at the shocked presidents, but when he glanced away, he noticed a few people dressed in simple clothes in the distance.

'Are you here so early? Sneaky, should I say that it is what you do? '
