Chapter 215： Neferutari Vivi

Go all out?

It is absolutely false to say that I can only build one ship at a time with Akainu. In terms of the ability of the shipbuilding island, although a battleship like the Goa Kingdom really has only one dock that can be built, those of the navy There are several docks for battleships, and the construction period for each ship is only less than ten days.

Originally, I didn't intend to deliver it to the headquarters so quickly, but now it seems that if I drag it on myself, the price will be paid by countless sailors with their lives.

"I can discuss with the Carrera company to concentrate all the forces to complete the Navy's order first. In this way, most of the orders should be completed in two months."

After pondering for a while, Li Yan made a decision and immediately said to the Warring States.

"That's good. In addition, the five active warships of your East China Sea Fleet should be handed over to the headquarters first. I will pay for the new ships!"

"this..."

"Have trouble?"

"No, Marshal, it's not that I'm in trouble, but that two of them have been bought by General Sakaski!"

"what?"

"According to General Sakaski, he bought it with his personal savings!"

Hearing this, Sengoku's expression softened a little. At least Sakaski didn't move public funds privately. As for the fact that he used his personal money to purchase warships, Sengoku didn't have any objection. On the contrary, it saved the headquarters a sum of money.

"I know about this. Is it okay to give the other three ships to the headquarters first?"

"No problem, the marshal can arrange for someone to come to the 18th branch to receive the warship in ten days. After all, I'm still at sea!"

"Okay, then it's settled!"

For the plan of this big sweep, the Warring States period can be said to be bleeding.

First of all, in order to let Carrera Company suspend other orders, so as to concentrate on completing the naval order first, and promised to give Carrera Company a compensation of one billion Bailey.

Secondly, it spent 6 billion Bailey to buy three spot warships from Li Yan.

Finally, in order to allow more sailors to change to the Corona Type 18 before the sweep, Li Yan placed an order for 3,000 Corona Type 18 and 3 million rounds of new bullets. This is another 5 billion.

In the end, when it all adds up, Li Yan sees...

Good guy, 7.5 billion!

To this, add Akainu's 3 billion, which is 10.5 billion in the account.

Counting the money that the Eighteen Branch itself has and the big order of 19 billion last time, the Eighteen Branch now has more than 30 billion Bailey on its books.

This level of wealth, even those nobles of the East China Sea have to cry poor when they see it.

And with this huge wealth, Li Yan also wants to spend it, it is meaningless to save money.

When even decided to put 20 billion of them into the steel industry.

In the future, the demand for steel will increase. Whether it is infrastructure construction, weapon manufacturing, shipbuilding, or the sea train project, etc., it will all require huge steel production capacity to support.

If Li Yan had to use the Merit Points to exchange all of these, even if he threw out all the tens of millions of Merit Points on his body, it would be a drop in the bucket.

Therefore, this problem still needs to be solved from the source.

------

Ten days later, Li Yan finally returned to Corona Island.

However, as soon as he got off the boat, he heard a message from Sol.

A girl who claimed to be the princess of Alabasta arrived at the 18th branch two days ago and asked to meet Li Yan.

After hearing the news, Li Yan's expression was a little strange.

The princess of Alabasta, is it Vivi?

According to the original plot, she shouldn't have come to find herself, seeing that because of her intervention, many things have changed.

Fortunately, Li Yan had already had the idea of ​​intervening after he intercepted Doflamingo's ship transporting arms to the Alabasta rebels on Horqin Island. Weiwei's visit also provided herself with a great deal. Nice excuse.

After instructing Ain to invite Princess Weiwei to his office, Li Yan walked to the branch office building.

And more than ten minutes later, Weiwei also came to the office under the leadership of Ain.

"Lieutenant General Li Yan, I am Neferutari Weiwei!"

After a very standard royal etiquette, Wei Wei said.

"Princess Weiwei, I don't know what's wrong with you coming to the East China Sea to find me?"

"Actually, I'm here to seek help from Lieutenant General!"

"Ask for help, what do you say?"

"It's like this..."

Although Wei Wei at this moment is already suspicious of Crocodile, after all, she has not investigated more information like a year later in the original book.

Therefore, most of his words are just speculation, and no actual evidence is provided.

However, as Li Yan, who has read the original book, how could he not know the specifics of this matter?

"It turns out that, Shichibukai Crocodile, do you suspect that he is the president of the Baroque studio, and is related to a series of strange situations in Alabasta in recent years, as well as the rebels?"

"Yes, although I haven't found definite evidence yet, I think Crocodile was indirectly involved, if not directly involved!"

"Princess Weiwei, you should know that the navy is not allowed to intervene in the internal issues of the alliance country unless the application is made by the king of the alliance country, so..."

After pondering for a moment, Li Yan said.

Of course, this is just a rhetoric, even if Weiwei didn't come to find her, she would think of other ways to intervene.

After all, once the rebels in Alabasta and the kingdom's army officially started a war, in just one year, more than 100,000 innocent people will die tragically, which is unacceptable to Li Yan.

You must know that the protagonist in the original book who was supposed to rescue Alabasta has already been cut off by himself.

"Lieutenant General, I am the heir to the throne of Alabasta. It should be in line with the rules for me to apply?"

"No, even if you come to apply, you need to submit it to the headquarters through a joint official channel!"

"this..."

Weiwei was a little embarrassed, she was investigating the Baroque studio without her father, and she came here, and she was also hiding it.

The most important thing is that if you want to apply through official channels, you have no evidence in your hands.

Without any evidence, it would be impossible for the Navy Headquarters to order the arrest of Qiwuhai.

"Actually, it's not impossible..."

Just when Weiwei was distressed, Li Yan suddenly spoke up, like a big bad wolf tempting a little white rabbit.

"If Princess Weiwei joins the navy, and I will directly grant you the rank of colonel with the greatest authority in my hands!"

"Finally, I will appoint the princess as the temporary commander of the fleet, so that the princess can lead the fleet to sea on her own!"

"Well, even if it's to stay in Alabasta for a while, that's fine."

"As the saying goes Homecoming isn't it?"

Hearing this, Weiwei's eyes suddenly lit up.

This is really a good idea. The Navy did not want to intervene in the internal problems of Alabasta. It was just that Princess Weiwei returned to Alabasta to visit her father after she became a navy.

Well, by the way, with a few warships as escorts.

after all...

This is the princess of a large alliance, isn't it?

Not too much.

Yes, exactly!

"As long as Alabasta can be saved, everything will be at the command of the Lord General!"

After thinking for a while, Weiwei also made up her mind.

When the navy is the navy, as long as it can save the kingdom...

It doesn't matter!
