Arriving in the Drum Kingdom was a pre-planned event, but storming into the palace under cover of night, taking down all the guards, and kidnapping the doctor and the King were all impromptu decisions.

There are two main reasons. After hearing about the reputation of Drum Island, Law became very interested in the medical skills there. And as everyone knows, Sirius dotes on his crew the most, so he naturally granted Law's small request.

Then, the second point is that Black kept complaining that the Sirius's metal was not strong enough to support his further ship modifications.

And His Majesty the King of this country, Mr. Wapol, possesses the Munch-Munch Fruit, which can perfectly compensate for the problem of metal strength.

The power of the Munch-Munch Fruit is extremely strong, so strong that Sirius even suspects that Teach's special trip to the Drum Kingdom in the original work was to obtain this power.

Wapol can eat anything and merge with it, or combine objects together. He can even gain additional abilities by eating other Devil Fruit User.

Using this capability to manufacture alloys would be a waste of its potential.

Wapol, of course, dared not refuse either of Sirius's two requests.

Anyway, it's not an unacceptable condition; as long as it saves my life, that's enough.

So, Doctor 20 brought all the medical records they had kept to Luo.

The sheer number is simply overwhelming; it truly befits a major medical power.

Luo simply couldn't keep up with all the information, so Black had to scan and save all the data before teaching Luo.

Yes, teach ship's medical skills.

Black's more important work lay in the manufacture of alloys.

He spent several days designing an alloy formula, which he claimed was so strong that even a martial arts master like Jack couldn't deform it by bombarding it with Armament Haki.

However, it's just too difficult to manufacture.

Of course, things are different now that we have Wapol.

The Drum Kingdom began a massive acquisition of various metals from the surrounding islands.

Although they didn't know why, people on the island and overseas didn't pay much attention because they knew about the King's bad habits.

It wouldn't be surprising if Wapol did something like that.

Sirius and his group stayed in the royal palace of the Drum Kingdom for a month.

Twenty days were spent acquiring the metal, and then Wapol worked day and night to manufacture the alloy. By the time Black announced that there was enough alloy, the guy had already collapsed from exhaustion.

Then, in the last ten days, Black sailed the Sirius outside the palace and began a complete overhaul, inside and out.

When the brand-new Sirius appeared before Sirius, he was filled with awe.

It was really not easy.

"But it doesn't look any different from before?"

Yamato some curiosity, "It's just a bit bigger."

The Sirius had grown much larger, exceeding 100 meters from bow to stern, making it a truly massive ship.

"The changes are more internal."

Black explained, "I've added more weapon systems, and the Transformation Module has undergone a qualitative leap. In terms of energy, I've installed a solar energy conversion device and several huge batteries, which can store a large amount of energy normally, so we won't have any problems even if we have to travel to and from the moon again."

Sirius nodded in satisfaction.

"Is this metal really as strong as you say, Black?" Jack asked.

"You can give it a try," Black said.

Let's give it a try.

Jack has always had a bad temper.

He twisted his neck and swung his arms before stepping forward.

Gathering strength.

Then he punched the Sirius ship.

The massive steel ship was visibly shaking, and was directly displaced by a single punch.

But where Jack's fist struck, there was only a shallow mark.

"Amazing!"

After witnessing this scene, Jack was filled with nothing but amazement.

His full-force punch could shatter even a small mountain, yet it only managed to leave a tiny mark on the Sirius at that moment.

That's truly remarkable technology.

In that case, he would probably have to use all his Haki to have any chance of breaking through the metal defense.

"Good!"

Sirius was very satisfied.

The month-long wait was worth it.

"Then, Captain,"

Luo laughed and asked, "What should we do with this guy?"

He pointed to Wapol, who was standing to one side, trembling.

"Since we've already used it all up, let's kill him to keep it a secret," Jack said casually.

Wapol was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a thud.

Hmm, that's not bad.

This guy was never a good person to begin with, so killing him wouldn't matter.

More importantly, Black felt it would be a huge loss if he leaked the alloy formula he had painstakingly developed to the government.

"Keep him."

But at this moment, Black suddenly spoke up, "His ability is very useful; I feel it will be useful in the future."

Now that you mention it, it does seem to make sense.

The Munch-Munch Fruit is indeed very useful.

"It's very simple."

Luo smiled gently; he would solve Sirius's troubles.

He walked up to Wapol, chuckled, and with a wave of his hand, a ROOM space formed. Then, he placed his hand on the fat King's chest from a distance.

"Scalpel."

Smack

With a soft click, something sprang out from behind Wapol.

Luo stretched out his hand again, and the thing was already in his hand.

It was something like jelly, shaped like a cube.

Inside the gel-like substance, a fiery heart is beating.

"Eh!!!"

Yamato was dumbfounded.

She looked at the heart in Luo's hand, then at Wapol's chest, where a square hole had appeared.

"Dig, we found it!"

"What an unreasonable ability," Maria exclaimed.

Wapol frantically searched his chest, but no matter how he looked, all he found was a hole.

"Please experience this feeling first, Your King."

Luo smiled and gently pinched it.

"Waaaaaah!"

Then Wapol was already rolling on the ground in agony.

"From today onward, let's pretend we were never here," Luo said, "and then be a kind and forgiving King, or else—"

He didn't need to say anything; Wapol nodded repeatedly, tears streaming down his face.

"Okay, okay, I understand!"

What kind of demons are these people!

Then it was time to leave.

Amidst the swirling snowflakes, the Sirius soared into the sky and vanished into the snowy landscape.

The tail flames from the large ship taking off illuminated the dim sky.

Somewhere in this country.

"Doctor Dorie! Look! It's a shooting star! I must make a wish right now, I wish I could become a panacea!"

"Idiot, wishes that are spoken aloud won't come true."

"Huh?"

On this day, many people on Drum Island made wishes, hoping that their homeland could return to the peace and tranquility it once was.

Perhaps the gods heard their wishes, for from this day forward, the once unruly King Wapol began to restrain himself. He lived a secluded life, and although he still made no brilliant decisions, at least he stopped causing trouble.

This country seems to be improving somewhat.

On the Sirius

"Sirius! Where do we go next?"

"Go to Alabasta! Experience the profound heritage of this ancient civilization!"

Thank you so much to 'HateUtopia' for the 100-point reward, and thank you to 'Famous Prince Fusu 2' for the 2000-point reward!
