Chapter 101
The weapons of the pirate world can be said to be bizarre to the extreme; ordinary navy ships are merely sailing ships, equivalent to those of the 15th and 16th centuries.
The weapons used are merely ordinary cannons and firearms, but some black-tech gadgets cannot be produced even by modern standards, such as the Pacifista.
Moreover, there are various cyborgs, and the advanced weapons they equip; some have even evolved into laser weapons, which are more powerful than today's thermal weapons.
Damn it, if you can build such advanced machines as the Pacifista, why can't you build some decent warships?
The weapons produced by Kaido and Wano Country are equivalent to those of the 18th–19th centuries; if they were to see modern missiles and aircraft, it would be quite shocking, and the Marvel World also has various black technologies.
In short, the pirate world's various technologies are bizarre; some seem advanced, some seem backward, but overall, the weapons produced by Wano Country are indeed inferior to modern weapons.
"The most powerful weapon in that world is called a nuclear bomb, which can easily destroy a city in one strike; there is also a missile weapon whose power is not weak at all, and there is—"
Luode gave Kaido a detailed introduction to the various weapons and advanced technology of the Marvel World.
For example, Iron Man's Ark reactor, this is truly cold fusion technology, and also a certain Snake Shield Agency's flying airborne aircraft carrier.
There are really too many good things in the Marvel world, too many to count!
"Is it really that powerful? You're not lying to me, are you?" Kaido asked half-believing, half-doubting.
As for weapon production in Wano Country, he had originally planned to turn the entire Wano Country into a military factory, thereby expanding the scale of arms production.
But Luode told him, the weapons you're producing now are basically trash, completely useless.
Compared to the weapons produced by Stark Arms Company in another world, whether in scale or firepower, they are worlds apart.
Kaido was quite unhappy about this, but after hearing Luode's introduction, he gradually felt that the weapons he produced, compared to theirs, were really just trash.
"So we will give your weapons factory some upgrades. That world still has many good weapons designers; as long as we bring them to Wano Country, we can upgrade your weapons factory.
"It won't produce wastewater; instead, it will double your factory's weapon production quality and output." Luode said.
"I get it! I'm really looking forward to the world you mentioned more and more; that world seems more suited to me than Azeroth. Is there any special power I can learn there?" Kaido asked.
"How to put it? You'll know when you get there." Luode said.
Kaido's pirate crew really lacks some management talent; couldn't I kidnap a few talents from the Marvel world?
"Alright, kid, I'm heading back now. Moving Whole Cake Island to Wano Country involves a lot of trouble that I need to handle." After saying that, Kaido got up and left.
In the following days, Kaido was swamped, having to deal with various matters, first of all that Black Carbon Giant Snake.
As for Whole Cake Island, he actually had the idea to rule Whole Cake Island and bring it under his control.
According to him, Wano Country is his territory, even the sea is the same. These newly emerged islands.
The inhabitants there must bow and submit to him as the Wano Country shogun in order to live here.
After all, that's hundreds of thousands of residents and dozens of islands—who wouldn't be tempted?
"That Black Carbon Giant Snake is really an idiot, completely clueless about who helped him control Wano Country, yet he dares to threaten Kaido." Luode shook his head and said.
This guy won't live much longer; after Kaido finishes dealing with Whole Cake Island's affairs, before the Dark Gate opens, he should be taken care of.
The reason we haven't taken care of him yet is that we're waiting for Luode and Sylvanas's abilities to mature; these past two days, Jack has already captured three Devil Fruit ability users, preparing to let Luode and Sylvanas practice on them.
"Luode, the people of Wano Country actually live in great hardship; if possible, I want to change their situation." Yamato said.
Although he has accepted his fate and no longer calls himself Kozuki Oden, Yamato still wants to save Wano Country.
"Just strive to become the shogun of Wano Country; if you become the new shogun, you can change all of this! Moreover, after the weapons factory is upgraded in the future, environmental pollution will also be greatly reduced, and with the food produced in the Whole Cake Island region, the future situation will be much better." Luode said.
Yamato, you idiot, although you want to save Wano Country, you have many ways, but overthrowing your father is absolutely the stupidest.
"But the people of Wano Country despise our Beasts Pirates and that Black Carbon Giant Snake to the core; it's not that easy to change." Yamato said.
"You're wrong, Yamato; ordinary commoners are actually the easiest to change—just feed them, keep them warm, and they'll be your most loyal followers.
Time will wash everything away; slowly they will forget everything.
"Now, they miss the Kozuki family only because the Kozuki family's rule was slightly better than that of the Black Carbon Giant Snake." Luode said. The Kozuki family's rule was merely a feudal era rule; how good could the lives of ordinary lower-class commoners possibly be?
Now everyone misses the Kozuki family because back then life was barely bearable, unlike now when it's so difficult.
As long as we make some slight changes, once the ordinary commoner class receives tangible benefits, they are very forgetful.
Moreover, Luode knows the future plot; when those Kozuki family members time-travel over, we just need to take care of them in advance, especially that little brat named Momonosuke, who must die.
"Remember, Yamato, after you ascend to the shogunate of Wano Country, you will publicly put the Black Carbon Giant Snake on trial, as well as all his followers, and they will all be tried.
"You can push all the problems, all the wrongdoings, onto him and his group
"Ordinary commoners just need a scapegoat; it's that simple, and I'll help you then." Luode said.
"That's great, Luode; with your help I will surely succeed. When can we take out the Black Carbon Giant Snake?" Yamato said.
"Soon!" Luode said.
In the following days, Luode and Sylvanas began experiments to extract genuine Devil Fruit abilities.
First extracted was a Paramecia Devil Fruit user, also the most numerous Devil Fruit user on this sea.
After killing the target, Luode and Sylvanas simultaneously used their absorption ability to draw out the Devil Fruit energy, then injected it into the fruit in their hands.
Soon the fruit's appearance changed, revealing mysterious patterns, becoming a brand-new Devil Fruit.
The Paramecia Hammer-Hammer Fruit, when eaten, allows one to turn parts of the body into hammers to attack enemies.
The second ability user is a Zoan Devil Fruit user who can transform into a giant wild boar; his Devil Fruit ability is Zoan, the Pig-Pig Fruit, wild boar form.
The third ability user is also a Zoan Devil Fruit user; his Devil Fruit ability is scorpion, the Insect-Insect Fruit, yellow scorpion form.
After successfully extracting the three Devil Fruits, Luode and Sylvanas exchanged smiles; their plan had finally succeeded.
"Luode, hurry up and extract that Devil Fruit; I can't wait any longer." Sylvanas said.
"Huh! Don't we need to rest a bit? We've just extracted three Devil Fruits in a row." Luode asked.
"No need! This doesn't consume any stamina; let's get to work quickly—lest we have second thoughts, that fruit's importance to me goes without saying." Sylvanas said.
Their stamina and mana consumption are both not large.
Luode nodded, and soon the two went to the quarry prison, then brought over a certain big fatty, Moria.
"Damn it, you two bastards, what do you want to do to me?" Moria shouted.
"Please go die, then hand over your Devil Fruit ability." Luode said.
「Your ability is very important to me, so please go die! 」
Sylvanas picked up her bow, aimed at Moonlight Moria, the entire arrow turned pitch black, covered with Armament Haki, and also her own necromantic power.
After staying in the pirate world for over twenty days, Sylvanas successfully learned Armament Haki, Observation Haki, and could use them proficiently.
As for Conqueror's Haki, it still needs some practice; after all, the time is too short, and the queen has too much to learn, after all she still needs to develop her Devil Fruit ability!
As the black arrow was fired, Sylvanas's necromantic arrow instantly pierced Moonlight Moria's head.
Moonlight Moria's head was pierced on the spot, then her whole body went limp and collapsed, her eyes filled with unwillingness and hatred.
A former Warlord of the Sea, a man who could once go toe-to-toe with Kaido, ended up meeting such a tragic, brutal fate.
Luode and Sylvanas immediately got to work, beginning to extract his Devil Fruit ability; soon a pitch-black fruit covered in strange patterns, resembling a pineapple, was extracted.
「Success! 」
「Yeah! We, the Forgotten, finally have a way to increase our numbers. 」
On the other side of the seas outside Wano Country, a pirate ship was struggling to crawl along; the arrival was none other than one of the New World's Supernovas, the fallen Navy Rear Admiral X Drake.
