Chapter 796: The Eternal Kingdom of Stan Island and the Beast Pirates
The long-distance collision between the two superpowers, although not a big friction, is still a rather interesting thing.
After all, there are huge benefits involved.
The focus of the Kingdom of Landis is on the Demon King Pirates, and it can give up some of the interests of Wano Country.
The focus of the Great Xia Kingdom is on the Tyrant Dragon Pirate Group.
What’s important is that they have begun to take action and are no longer watching in the dark as they did in the past.
In this day and age, sometimes you just need to be more proactive.
After all, the kingdom needs to develop, rather than waiting for the destruction of the world government before starting to show its fangs and divide up the benefits.
Even though the Kingdom of Landis started planning early, controls the world's public opinion, and has huge profits brought by the World Economic News Agency and the World Den Den Mushi Group, it still needs to further expand the market.
The Great Xia Kingdom is also unwilling to remain peaceful and needs to continue to develop its economy and protect its powerful ally, the Tyrant Pirates.
So what if the World Government finds out?
The world government can't do anything to them.
When facing such a powerful enemy, it is even more impossible to easily provoke a superpower with terrifyingly powerful comprehensive strength.
Just sending a top-level fighter can cause great trouble to the World Government and even break the overall balance of combat power between the pirates and the World Government.
Besides, neither the Demon King Pirates nor the Tyrant Pirates have shown much ambition to become enemies of the World Government.
Moreover, the two superpowers did not take direct action to explicitly oppose the World Government.
In this case, there is no way the world government would provoke them.
Hades once joined the Rocks Pirates, openly opposed the World Government, and established the Pluto Pirates.
All reconciled with the World Government.
Of course, we have remained very restrained in some specific actions.
The strength of the Pluto Pirates, the establishment of the Sky Arena, the holding of a kendo tournament, and the kingdom's navy's massive expansion in the northern waters.
Now it has demonstrated its terrifying military power again.
In what way is it more ostentatious than the Big Xia Kingdom and the Landis Kingdom?
It is precisely because they understand the nature of the World Government that they decided to take action.
Besides, for the benefit of the kingdom, what would it matter even if we took action?
It does not harm the interests of the world government.
Instead, it fueled infighting among pirates and might even have helped the World Government weaken the power of pirates.
As various life-machine technologies become popular on the sea, the Eternal Kingdom is trying to further connect with the sea and earn more profits.
When selling robotic organs including robotic arms, robotic hands, and even eyes.
Many new products have been launched over the years.
If mechanical organs are used to make up for physical defects, then mechanical modification of the human body is a brand new market.
Flesh and flesh are bitter and weak, and machines soar.
For those who do not have enough potential and strength, transforming their own bodies is a relatively efficient way to improve their strength.
Although it cannot be compared with the Devil Fruit, the cost is lower.
Although the Eternal Kingdom is not the only one involved in this area on the sea.
But this is the first time that it has been truly commercialized facing the sea.
This can also be regarded as the Eternal Kingdom's entry into the arms market.
After all, high-tech weapons can also be considered as munitions, they just have higher technological content and can enhance the combat effectiveness of the transformed person.
Although the Eternal Kingdom has the Ouroboros Group, a hidden terrorist force.
However, in terms of making money, it still cannot compare with the Kingdom of Chronos and the Kingdom of Landis. It does not have the Golden Kingdom with its own gold mines and huge gold reserves.
The annual revenue is at most only about 100 billion Baileys.
However, the development of the Eternal Kingdom and its various high-tech products rely on large amounts of precious metals and ores.
This situation constrains the production of the eternal kingdom.
Therefore, it is necessary to further expand business channels.
It has to be admitted that the Eternal Kingdom is a technological power, but the development of science and technology requires huge financial support.
In the past, the Ouroboros Group was able to maintain its business by purchasing minerals and materials from all over the world.
And now that a start has been made, we naturally need to seek greater benefits.
To this end, the Eternal Kingdom built a human mechanical transformation base on an island in the sea area secretly controlled by the Eternal Kingdom in the southern part of the front part of the New World.
At the same time, it is also the base camp for all of Eternal Kingdom’s overseas commercial products.
This island named Stan has attracted the attention of many pirates.
Especially those who already enjoy the convenience of mechanical organs.
In order to become more powerful, they don't mind further transforming their bodies.
It's like the design template for various ships on Put Island, the shipbuilding capital.
Stan Island also prepared a number of human body modification plans in advance.
For example, a mechanical eye can restore vision.
It actually existed a long time ago.
If you want, you can replace one eye, keep one eye, and replace the other eye with a mechanical eye.
The mechanical eye has multiple capabilities such as infrared rays and thermal imaging.
It can even display the distance between an enemy and oneself. If someone is hiding, he can be easily found within the visual range of the mechanical eye.
When used in war, it is a complete weapon of mass destruction.
The limbs can also be modified to conceal small arms weapons and even rockets.
Of course, what is even more amazing is the addition of mechanical weapons to the original human body.
It's like a mechanical tentacle, directly connected to the human spinal nerves and installed on the back.
Having it is like becoming "Doctor Octopus". Not only do you have more "arms" in battle, but you can also control them at will.
Each mechanical tentacle possesses terrifying power.
The claws on the mechanical tentacles can easily break rocks into pieces, and can even hide some secret weapons on them.
Although Stan Island was established not long ago, many people have already carried out mechanical transformation.
Judging from the results, it is very obvious that not only has the combat effectiveness been greatly improved, but some strange weapons are completely hard to defend against, giving people an advantage.
Who would have thought that someone had built a mechanical eye on the back of his head that could see what was happening behind him.
Who would have thought that when someone was fighting, a sharp blade would suddenly extend from his elbow.
Who would have thought that the opponent's fingers suddenly turned into the muzzle of a gun.
Those that have undergone a more thorough transformation, like the future "Plague" Quinn, can open their mouths and turn them directly into cannon muzzles, able to shoot out lasers of terrifying power.
It is also because of this that the Eternal Kingdom came into contact with the Beasts Pirates who ruled the Kingdom of Barbarossa.
The activity in the Eternal Kingdom naturally attracted the attention of the Beasts Pirates.
Kaido, the "Hundred Beasts", has taken a fancy to the technology of the Eternal Kingdom and wants to use it for himself.
According to the intelligence from the Chronos Kingdom, Kaido, the "Hundred Beasts", arrogantly broke into the base camp of the Eternal Kingdom, inside the storm surrounding the giant island.
I don’t know what the final result will be, but it is likely that “Hundred Beasts” Kaido suffered a great loss and was injured for several days after flying back to the Kingdom of Barbarossa.
Obviously, Kaido became obedient after being beaten.
Know the horror of the eternal kingdom.
You know, when facing a superpower, you have to be prepared to face three top combat forces at the same time.
Even during the weakest period of the Chronos Kingdom, Hades' father Jaeger and another follower with top combat power died in battle.
Hades himself has not yet grown up.
The Kingdom of Chronos can still field three top fighters.
The then great general Zoffy, the previous commander-in-chief of Hell "Jiu", and a top fighter in the royal family.
This is just the apparent combat power.
There is no telling how many are hidden in secret.
Like now, with "Xiao" becoming the new commander-in-chief of Hell, the previous commander-in-chief of Hell "Jiu" has become the new foundation of the kingdom.
The same applies to Zoro taking the throne and Zoffy abdicating.
Even if the Eternal Kingdom is worse, it’s not much worse.
With two or three top fighters joining forces, no matter how strong Kaido is, he can't withstand such a powerful siege.
Besides, the homeland of the Eternal Kingdom is very mysterious, and no one knows how many secret weapons are hidden there.
Even the Kingdom of Chronos is not sure.
Only a special island was found near the coast of the Eternal Kingdom, which had been destroyed by terrifying energy weapons.
According to the predictions of the kingdom's scientists and the speculation of the staff, it is very likely a secret weapon hidden by the Eternal Kingdom.
As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting, the two forces began to cooperate.
The Beasts Pirates need the high-tech support of the Eternal Kingdom.
The Eternal Kingdom also needs the Beasts Pirates as its overt protection. As the Beasts Pirates begin to expand, their sphere of influence will sooner or later reach the waters where the Eternal Kingdom is located.
Early contact can also save some trouble.
