On the way to the factory area, Judge tried enthusiastically to communicate with these little robots.

He then concluded that these little robots did indeed possess a certain degree of intelligence.

It is roughly equivalent to the level of a seven or eight-year-old child, with a strong ability to understand human speech.

They simply can't speak; they can only respond with various gestures.

Perhaps it's because their role is that of the lowest-ranking soldiers, left here to guard this abandoned city, that they don't need the ability to speak.

That's amazing enough!

It's not just a pre-programmed sequence; it's something that can actually think!

Furthermore, they possessed learning abilities commensurate with their level of intelligence; Judge taught them some vocabulary from the Blue Sea region.

They were able to understand quickly and respond accordingly.

That's absolutely amazing!

Despite having a cold, metallic body, what lies hidden within is a heart truly similar to that of a human!

"The Birka people, they've practically created a new race out of thin air!"

Judge kept exclaiming in amazement throughout the journey, and finally, with a look of astonishment, he came to the final conclusion.

Although its intelligence level is still far behind that of mature humans, it has already taken the first step from zero to one!

If we continue our research based on this foundation, creating robots that are truly indistinguishable from humans will not be difficult at all!

In fact, these robots were just basic models; long before the Birka people left the moon, they must have already created much more advanced robots!

This is truly the creation of new life!

Joy Boy's last words only mentioned the existence of a technologically advanced country in the past, but he didn't say it was that advanced!

After Judge's explanation, the other cadres couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Just hearing about it sounds incredible, right?

Only Roa remained calm throughout.

After all, they already knew.

He even knew that in the future, although he didn't know where the technology came from, Dr. Tsukimi of the Clockwork Island had indeed created an even more advanced robot.

Although those creatures and these robots have the same appearance, their level of intelligence is far, far more advanced.

They can cry and laugh, communicate normally with humans, and even understand revenge.

Aside from their appearance, they are not much different from normal humans.

As I said before, don't worry too much about the cutting-edge technology in this world.

Soon enough, the little robots led everyone to the factory area of this abandoned city.

It's a fairly large area.

When the group entered, they discovered that many of the factories had been emptied.

Of course, some remained, and quite a few at that.

And these machines that haven't been taken away are still functioning normally!

"Both the materials and the craftsmanship are amazing,"

No one understands the true value of these machines better than Judge, a scientist. "The gap between materials science and processing technology is enormous."

Did it help?

Roa asked directly.

After all, the purpose of coming here is to make up for deficiencies in skills.

Even though he knows exactly what to do, he just can't meet the technical requirements to produce a qualified finished product. This is the problem that has been troubling Judge lately.

Moreover, this is just a matter of the most basic processing capabilities; there's no way to circumvent it through shortcuts.

"Have!"

Judge said decisively, "Most of the machines left behind are basic processing equipment. Although they are not cutting-edge and cannot be used directly, they are absolutely what we need!"

"By conducting research based on these models, we should be able to manufacture the processing equipment we need."

"Very good."

Roa nodded in satisfaction.

That's right. What "Great Hammer Clan"? It's just a small workshop. When it comes to manufacturing, you have to look at large-scale processing plants.

"In addition,"

Judge looked at the little robots leading the way, "Their existence should also greatly help in the research of the Pluton control system!"

Pluton is roughly composed of three parts: a firepower system, an energy system, and a control system.

Although it comes from the past, Pluton, which should actually be called the ship of the future, certainly cannot be controlled by sailors like an ordinary warship.

It also possesses an extraordinary control system.

"It seems this trip was really worthwhile."

Roa chuckled softly.

"As expected of the Boss!"

Judge exclaimed in amazement, "I knew from the beginning that we would find something here! Truly remarkable!"

"Hahaha!"

Although he was already used to his subordinates' flattery, Roa would still laugh at it, saying, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's take everything useful!"

Then the Calamity City began to descend, Clone soldiers began to appear, dismantling all usable machinery from the ruins.

Then send them back to the Calamity City.

A small incident occurred during this time: the little robots were initially unwilling to leave the ruins, as they wanted to follow the last instructions left by the Birka people had left the place and continue to guard the ruins.

But Roa paused for a moment, then sent Abel to communicate with the little robots.

So the little robots immediately became obedient.

The orders given by the masters of the past will naturally be superseded by the orders given by the masters of the present.

A new group of adorable little robots has appeared in the Calamity City.

While the clone soldiers were busy moving the machinery from the ruins, Roa also led the large group to wander around the ruins.

Thanks to its deep burial and construction techniques, this site remains remarkably well-preserved even after countless years.

Overall, the architectural style is somewhat similar to that of Birka on the Sky Island, since they are of the same lineage.

However, it has a much stronger sense of technology, with traces of various technologies everywhere, such as the brilliant streetlights, the air conditioning system that has also started operating, Nie Li's huge glass sphere used for energy storage, and so on.

It was just empty.

It's clear that the relocation was well-prepared; in all the houses, only some daily necessities covered in thick dust remained.

Of course, there may be others, but they have probably been erased over the long course of time.

In the center of the ruins, inside a pyramid-like structure, Roa saw the murals that Enel had seen in the original work.

It details the rise of the Birka people and their migration to the Blue Star after the depletion of their resources.

"What a pity."

After viewing these murals, Judge couldn't help but sigh sincerely, "The Birka people certainly never imagined that the future they desired after going to the Blue Star wouldn't come true."

"If Joy Boy had won back then, the world would definitely not be the way it is now. Technology would truly have changed the entire world."

"A loser is a loser!"

Teach scoffed. "What's there to say?"

"If we're really talking about changing the world,"

Dylan smiled and said, "Of course it has to be the Boss!"

Roa smiled, then suddenly said, "How about building a base on the moon?"

"Base?"

Dylan, somewhat puzzled, "Boss, what are you thinking? The moon is too far away from our planet, and transportation is extremely inconvenient; even communication via Den Den Mushi is difficult."

"The World Government keeps its sights on us."

Roa said, "And our production scale will continue to expand. Artificial Devil Fruit, Clone soldiers, Lineage Factor androids, and Pluton —it won't be long before the Calamity City is not enough. We need a truly safe production base."

"I see,"

Judge nodded in deep agreement, "As expected of Boss, you are indeed far-sighted! It is very feasible. With the weather technology of Visalia, it is not difficult to build a self-sufficient base on the moon by artificially controlling the climate."

"The only problem is that resources on the moon are depleted, and all the resources needed for production have to be transported from the Blue Star," so Judge,"

Roa looked at Judge with anticipation, "This requires you to develop a more efficient aircraft."

"Yes, Boss!"

Judge, as always, did not disappoint Roa, readily declaring, "I'll start researching right away!"

After that, there was nothing more to note about the ruins.

After loading everything worth taking onto the ship, the Calamity City set sail again, its goal to return to the Blue Star.

As the Calamity City slowly departed from the moon, Abel and Enel both looked on with a sense of wonder.

But it was only a slight sigh.

The story of the Birka people is not over yet, but the sequel will definitely not be on this desolate planet.

They turned and looked at the blue planet suspended in the dark universe, far, far away in the starry sky.

This is the real battlefield!

The journey here took the same amount of time as the journey back.

It was quite some time later when the Calamity City finally entered the atmosphere of the Blue Star.

Standing on the terrace atop the tower, Roa took a deep breath of the air from his hometown, a look of blissful contentment spreading across his face.

"Even though I was only gone for a few days, I still miss you so much, Blue Star, I'm back!"

Behind him, Dylan stood silently. "Boss, according to the chart, we are currently above the Calm Belt on the side of the Paradise."

Paradise?

Roa nodded slightly.

The Calamity Company hasn't yet developed to the point of deploying satellites around the Blue Star for positioning, so of course they can only confirm their location by comparing it with nautical charts after entering the atmosphere.

Dylan's lips suddenly curled into a strange smile. "Coincidentally, Boss, this place isn't far from Amazon Lily."

Amazon Lily?

Roa raised an eyebrow.

"Boss, shall we go take a look?"

Dylan News.

Boss has become very interested in beautiful women in the past year or two.

As everyone knows, Amazon Lily is a true Daughter Country, and great beauties like Gloriosa and Shakky came from there.

"Forget it."

Roa shook his head. "It's not the right time yet."

Aunt Gloriosa was probably still grieving Roger's death somewhere in the world, while Shakky had long since run off with Rayleigh.

Where on Amazon Lily now is it worth making a special trip?

Although Hancock has already been born, she's only two years old. Let's wait a few more years until she's a bit older before she goes. Even though she already has many little devils under her command, two or three years old is still too young.

Roa likes beautiful women, but he doesn't like taking care of children.

"Also, hey, we need to get back quickly, I can't wait for the new game to start!"

"Yes."

Therefore, the Calamity City did not land, but instead headed directly back towards the New World.

At this point, Roa was completely unaware of what he had missed.

He Ochoku, "Uncle Ochoku, isn't it about time to begin?"

Amazon Lily.

Nestled within a basin surrounded by towering, ring-shaped mountains, lies the home of Amazon Lily, the Daughter Country.

What makes this country so unique is that many of its buildings are constructed on mountainside walls, supported by wooden piles, creating an effect similar to a suspended city.

Meanwhile, atop a building on the mountainside.

Olvia looked up at the sky.

Did she see wrong?

How come it looks like I'm seeing a small wisp of white cloud in Calm Belt where there's practically no wind or clouds?

"Ms. Olvia! Ms. Olvia! What are you looking at?"

A child's innocent voice came from behind.

When Olvia turned around, a gentle smile was on her face.

Before her stood a group of girls of all ages, the oldest being ten. Hancock, holding Robin's little hand, stood before her, tilting her head back and asking questions. She was just over two years old, like Robin.

"Nothing,"

The woman smiled and knelt down to pat the girl's head. "Little Hancock, did you have fun playing with Robin?"

"Um!"

The little girl nodded vigorously, so much so that her petite body swayed slightly.

"Mother-- "

Seeing his Mother pat his best friend's head, little Robin quickly leaned his head in as well.

"Oh dear, Robin really loves to act cute."

Olvia then smiled and gently patted her daughter's head.

Then even more little heads crowded around.

"Ms. Olvia, I want one too!"

"I'm also Ms. Olvia! I want Ms. Olvia to pat my head too!"

Olvia's heart melted as she looked at the adorable children. "Alright, alright, one at a time."

To give her something to do, the king of the country, Miss Toritoma, asked her to be the teacher of the country's children.

In hindsight, accepting her invitation was a very wise decision.

Spending every day with these lovely children, Olvia felt that her heart, which had been riddled with wounds because of Roger's death, was being healed.

After patting all the children, Olvia smiled and said, "Well then, let's begin the lesson!"

"Yes, it is."

All the children drawled out their responses in unison.

Looking at the children's tense little faces, Olvia couldn't suppress her smile.

She almost burst out laughing when she saw Robin and Hancock, who couldn't even speak very clearly, trying their best to make serious expressions, only to end up making strange faces instead.

But after the laughter, she couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Robin is still just over two years old. At first, he cried and shouted for his father, but now, he hasn't mentioned the word "father" in a long time.

Robin was happy every day because of her many friends on Amazon Lily, especially Hancock, with whom she was almost inseparable.

Robin, on Amazon Lily, where no one has a father, you should be able to have a very happy childhood.

But Robin, sooner or later you'll have to make a choice.

Is it to inherit your father's will? Just don't.

If you're willing, then Rayleigh promises he'll come and teach you.

If you refuse, then living out your life in anonymity is not bad either.

No matter what you choose, Mother will support you. Mother only hopes that you can live your life freely according to your own will.
