"Of course~ It's better to say, I've wanted to come here for a long time..."

Looking at the unique mountain shape of the Drum Kingdom, which resembles a natural ventilation cooling tower, Nami also turned her gaze to Weiwei on one side, her tone also full of gentle smile.

"And, Your Highness Weiwei, please cheer up~ As I said before, there is currently a vacant throne here, waiting for a suitable person to sit on it."

(PS1: Ah~~so tired~~go to sleep~~bye everyone~)

(PS2: Come on~ let’s build a national alliance~)

Competitor (1)

The Drum Kingdom is an island country located in the Winter Island climate zone of the Grand Route. There is nothing particularly attractive about its products. Moreover, it snows all year round in the country, and the environment is not considered excellent. In addition, the waterway it is located on It's not on a major shipping route, so it's not a particularly prosperous country.

Such an area is naturally not necessary for Nami. But unlike itself, which seems to have no outstanding features, the Drum Kingdom is not far behind in international popularity. It can even be said that it is quite famous. And a major advantage brought by this fame is that its king can Among the kings of more than 170 countries that have joined the World Government, they have obtained the qualification to directly participate in the World Conference.

As a world summit that divides the entire world situation, the World Conference is held every four years, and only 50 of the 170 franchise kings are eligible to directly participate in the conference. Although due to national internal affairs or other reasons, the candidates who directly participate in the meeting will always change more or less every year, it is certain that Nami, as the Queen of Bellmere, already has this qualification.

The World Government is absolutely rational in its review of the qualifications of participants. A king with insufficient influence or utilization value will never be favored. As Nami, as an important chess piece in seizing the market in the new world with the Xialan series of weapons, her Of course, the status will be recognized. In a sense, this is indeed the power that can actually affect the world.

At this point, the reason why the Drum Kingdom is favored by Nami is quite clear. Yes, it is a seat that can directly attend the World Conference, which is one of the fifty powers that can affect the world. .

"I heard that this country used to be quite famous for its medical skills, and many excellent doctors came from here. But later, it seems that because of the misbehavior of the current king Valpo, the medical system that has been passed down for countless generations was interrupted. It is really disappointing. regret."

Looking out of the porthole at the snowy scene outside the window, Robin's knowledge reserve was never useless. That's right, the Drum Kingdom has no production and no geographical advantage, but there is only one reason why it still attracts the attention of the world government, and that is its developed medical system, and its technology can even be classified as a developed medical country in the entire world. But... alas, that's a thing of the past, and the problem lies with its king, Valpo.

As an outright tyrant, Valpo was an autocratic and cruel king. He was a typical tyrant who completely ignored the life and death of the people as long as he was happy. The medical skills of the Drum Kingdom declined in just a few years precisely because he developed a The inhumane treaty called "Hunting Doctors". Except for the 20 doctors with the best medical skills who were left as royal doctors, the other doctors in the Cigu Kingdom either died in the hunting or fled the Kingdom in panic. This directly caused the Ciggu Kingdom, which was an oasis of medical skills, to degenerate into a medical desert.

"Are you here specifically to seize this country?"

Kosha, who was brought over with Weiwei, gritted his teeth and asked. Although Nami has an obvious identity as the Queen of Bellmere, it is not difficult to see from her behavior that she is also the second-generation president of Baroque Works. She is absolutely I have no intention of being content just being the king of a country.

And since the other party's men have gathered so much fighting power, and now they specially come to the Drum Kingdom, Kosha doesn't think that she just wants to bring everyone to enjoy the snow.

"The Drum Kingdom is not a military country, and its defense capabilities cannot exceed our combat effectiveness."

Robin, with her arms folded, smiled and added her evaluation of the country's combat effectiveness. She didn't have any excessive opinions on whether to occupy this country. Anyway, Nami couldn't do such an evil act as inhumane massacre. So, then Under his hands, perhaps the country would be better off than under the original tyrant.

"If Zero-chan really wants this country, then of course you can do something big~!"

Funkley circled around Nami with an eager attitude. Considering the combat effectiveness of the Drum Kingdom's army in the original work, his statement was not an exaggeration. Moreover, because of the distance between the Drum Kingdom and neighboring countries, as long as no one specifically asks for help, it is guaranteed that there will be no news that the Drum Kingdom has been captured.

"I am very satisfied with your enthusiasm, but unfortunately, your information is out of date. The current Drum Kingdom is already a forgotten country without a king."

Looking at the mountains in the distance that were shaped like ventilation towers, Nami could already see the vague outline of a huge palace on one of them. There was no doubt that that was the palace of the Drum Kingdom, but she knew more clearly. That is, the palace is empty at the moment, but this statement is a bit inappropriate, because there is indeed a person and a reindeer living there now.

"Huh? Such information...I have indeed never received such information..."

Robin couldn't help but be a little surprised. Logically speaking, as the second-in-command of Baroque Works, she would have no problem grasping the news, but there had never been any news in her channels about the King of the Drum Kingdom abandoning the country and absconding. This was not true. It's a small thing, if it happens, there's no reason why it wouldn't be noticed.

"It's very simple, because this matter is not a glorious thing, nor is it something worth remembering like a national war. It originated from about a year ago when a group of pirates called the Blackbeard Pirates invaded this country. , and then King Valpo abandoned his country to protect himself, and is probably still wandering at sea. Although, he seems to have gone directly to play the pirate game. The name of the pirate group... Well, if I remember correctly, It should be called the Brick Pirates."

The reason why Nami can remember these things is indeed a bit surprising, because in the original One Piece, although Valpo is indeed a tyrant who does all kinds of evil, he surprisingly has a series of his own unique short stories in the comics. It is his own follow-up after being defeated by Luffy. Valpo, who had been reduced to a vagabond, accidentally used his swallow fruit to create an unprecedented memory alloy, thereby making a fortune. He was once again recognized by the world's nobles, established a country and became a king.

In the original War on Top, the alloy steel plate used by the Warring States Period to surround the Whitebeard Pirates was Wapokin made by Valpo. Although it does not have the elasticity and rigidity of rubber alloy, its advantage is that it can It recovers on its own, so it can also be used to resist Whitebeard's Shock Fruit attack.

When she came to this world and prepared to develop rubber alloys to expand her influence, Nami naturally had to investigate the information about potential competitors. Until now, she finally decided to deal with this unexpected person who might cause her voice to be dispersed— —The former king of the Drum Kingdom, Valpo, the user with swallowing fruit ability, should do some security measures that will not threaten her interests.

(PS1: First update~~)

Competitor (2)

Robin frowned slightly in the cabin. This was the dissonance she felt from Nami again.

Regarding the source of the information, Nami really has no reason to deceive everyone, because it makes no sense. However, the strange thing is that her attitude in telling this information is as if she knew it from the beginning...

Robin didn't mean any harm, but as a historian, curiosity was almost natural for her, but Nami obviously didn't want to talk about the source of her intelligence, so Robin could only continue to suppress this curiosity. .

"Well...so, since the king has fled...the purpose of our coming here...I can't figure it out~"

Being stunned by Nami's series of information, Feng Klei was obviously not the material to think about political issues, and shook his head slightly. Nami was not surprised, but simply issued his order: "An Xin, I received information that the person The fugitive king is coming back soon, so the next task is to investigate and monitor the nearby sea to ensure that the king is found as soon as possible. Note that their ship is a large submarine, so the main area to monitor is Below the surface of the sea.”

The employees of Baroque Works naturally had no objection to Nami's order. Even if they still didn't understand what Nami meant, as agents, their only choice was to obey.

That's right, everything wouldn't have changed much, that's why everything has gone so smoothly so far. If I had to say it, the only deviation probably comes from the devil fruit I have eaten so far, which is no longer good or bad.

Looking back to her right hand, Nami frowned slightly. She does not think that the progress and flow of the world are static, because since she came to this world, the development trajectory of this world has been different from the original work, not to mention that she has more or less noticed the maliciousness of this world. .

That is, for her, the Blood Fruit is already an 'excessive' power for a person who is more accustomed to doing things in human ways. Nami's original purpose was just to obtain a devil fruit with acceptable power at the beginning, and then use it to avenge the evil dragons. Her subsequent development and growth did not strictly require non-human power. It can also be done slowly.

But the power of the Blood Fruit obviously greatly improved her convenience and greatly accelerated the growth of her career, so much so that she early reached a height that was considered noble in the entire world.

If an ordinary person gets this fruit, what will happen? Since this fruit was originally among the items sold in Doflamingo's trading house, according to the original work, it should be possible for the buyer to obtain it. And why did such a power not cause any ripples in the original work? Or... the plot it triggers will happen to be within the parts that have not been mentioned in the original work?

Or... is some kind of accident unknown to her, which has officially begun in an area that she is not aware of yet?

Grand Line, Twin Capes.

"Ah~ Even now, I still can't believe that we have actually entered the Grand Line."

The one muttering to himself was Usopp, who was repairing the Meri. Because the Straw Hat Pirates have not yet been equipped with shipwrights, the only person with sufficient manual experience, that is, she could only make a temporary guest appearance, and put a few spare pieces with some difficulty. The wooden board was moved to the location that needed to be repaired. Long Nose couldn't help wiping the sweat from his forehead, and then glanced at the lighthouse on the island not far away. There was the lighthouse keeper who was currently hosting Luffy and his party, who called himself Kuro. The place where the old man who keeps the tower of Kas lives.

In front of the waterway of Twin Capes, a huge island whale was parked quietly on the sea. It was this island whale named Rab who almost became the culprit of the Meri's death at the bottom of the sea. Fortunately, the whale was not violent. , so the Meili that hit it head-on only needs to be repaired now, otherwise it would probably be the result of considering recycling the wooden boards.

"Hey, Usopp, come over and eat when you're done. If it's late, you know there's no way we can leave food for you with this idiot here."

One hand grabbed Luffy's mouth to prevent the drooling foodie from swallowing the table directly. Sanji was obviously still in the stage of using force to control Luffy's eating disorder, although the effect was minimal.

"Oh...here he comes~"

Putting down the tools in his hand in a hurry, Usopp also looked into the cabin and shouted: "Hey~ Kirby, we're out to eat, charts and other things, it's not too late to start drawing after eating."

"Hi~ah...come here!"

As a formal graduate of the Royal Academy of Navigation in Bellemere, Kerby obviously adheres to the drawing requirements of navigation technology, because a fixed requirement of learning is that once they arrive in an unfamiliar sea area, they must draw the sea inside the area. Figure is drawn. Although Her Majesty the Queen's power cannot yet extend to the entire world, students who are truly capable of graduating will abide by this requirement. After all, this is the right path to continuously hone and even improve navigation knowledge.

At this time, inside the lighthouse hut, a complicated-looking Nokki Gao and an odd-looking old man also walked out of it. This old man was the Kurokas mentioned. On the surface, the other person was just another person. An old and strange old man, but in fact, the current lighthouse keeper was the ship's doctor on the ship of Pirate King Gol D. Roger.

"Ah~ it's Miss Nokigao~ I've prepared a loving lunch for you~!"

A neat whirlwind running method came to Nokigao's side. Sanji also tried to offer his love diligently, but Nokigao just shook his head uneasily, and then said softly: "I'm sorry, but... Now let’s listen to Mr. Kurokas..."

Nokigao's performance made everyone's eyes involuntarily focus on it. Yes, although there was no plot about helping Rab, the straightforward attitude of the Straw Hats still impressed Kurokas, plus himself I have the integrity of a doctor, so I took on the responsibility of diagnosing Keya, and the results have obviously been obtained by now.

"Really? So, can you tell us the diagnosis results? Although...someone told us that the disease seems to be called blood thirst or something like that."

Although his tone was still relaxed, Luffy's attitude was obviously very serious. He raised his hand to push his eyes on his face, and Kurokas also responded.

"Yes, the person who came to you was not wrong. This disease is indeed blood thirst."
