World Government Supreme Administrative Conference III

"When I first found out, I was just as shocked as you are all. However, as high-ranking government officials, I believe you are capable of accepting this."

Alexander Watson, the chief of staff directly under the Supreme Governing Committee, continued to preside over the meeting with ease and composure.

"I know you all have many questions, but the documents you have vary depending on your department and position. Please leave these questions for a separate internal meeting in your respective departments for detailed discussion."

"Now we will proceed to the second item on the agenda, which is also the main topic of this meeting. I will read out the <Plan for Implementing the Strategic Planning for Developing Another World>."

"First"

Everyone listened attentively to each point of the plan, but it was all just official rhetoric, mainly discussing the impact of the other world on the World Government and the World Government's basic attitude towards the other world.

Therefore, the senior officials present did not pay much attention to it; everyone knew that only the last part of the plan was what truly needed their concern and attention.

Really.

The key point was quickly uttered by Chief of Staff Alexander Watson, instantly invigorating everyone present.

"Sixth, establish the Otherworld Strategy Committee, with Chief of Staff Fernandez concurrently serving as its chairman, responsible for leading the Otherworld Strategy Committee!"

"Bulwo - Gabriel, Deputy Minister of the State Council Administrative Department, will concurrently serve as Vice Chairman of the Otherworld Strategy Committee!"

"Maren Wilfred, Deputy Minister of the Finance Department of the State Council, will concurrently serve Vice Chairman of the Otherworld Strategy Committee!"

"Hobson Samuel, Deputy Attorney Ministry of Justice of the Judiciary, will concurrently serve Vice Chairman of the Otherworld Strategy Committee!"

"Kongming, Deputy Chief of the General Staff Supreme Command of the Armed Forces, will concurrently serve Vice Chairman of the Otherworld Strategy Committee!"

After discussing the candidates for the most important Vice Chairman responsible for political affairs, finance, legal affairs, and military affairs, Chief of Staff Alexander Watson began to talk about the candidates for the next level of committee members.

"Next up are the transferred personnel. You have three days to hand over your work in your original departments. After the handover is complete, please immediately report to your new post at the Otherworld Strategy Committee."

"Ali Philip, Deputy Director of the Industrial Division Administrative Department of the State Council, has been transferred to the Otherworld Strategy Committee; Bart Charles, Deputy Director of the Construction Division of the State Council, has been transferred to the Otherworld Strategy Committee."

Upon hearing this, the many senior officials below couldn't help but whisper among themselves, because they realized that, apart from Chief of Staff Fernandez, who was genuinely holding a concurrent post at the same level, everyone else had been promoted or transferred.

Since the chairman of this Otherworld Strategy Committee is clearly at the dean level, the Vice Chairman below him are naturally at the minister level, so the vice ministers of each department have been promoted to the minister level.

The same goes for the Deputy Director of various departments we're hearing about now; after being transferred to become committee members, they became directors.

To be honest, it is indeed very attractive, but the key is that no one knows what the environment of those Otherworld is like. If the danger level is very high and you have to risk your life, whether it is good or bad depends on your personal opinion.

"The main tasks of the Otherworld Strategy Committee are the exploration, development, and recycling of all Otherworld resources, as well as leading the indigenous forces of the Otherworld!"

"They have the authority to mobilize personnel below the Rear Admiral in the military and below the rank of CIPHER POL, in order to safeguard all the interests of the World Government in its Otherworld homeland!"

"The Otherworld Strategy Committee has several offices, with staff transferred from various institutes, departments, and divisions as needed, all under the unified guidance of the Otherworld Strategy Committee!"

"It is required that all transferred personnel, under the guidance of the Otherworld Strategy Committee, scientifically and systematically develop the local resources of the Otherworld in accordance with their respective responsibilities!"

"The Construction Division is responsible for the World Government's large-scale civil engineering projects in Otherworld worlds; the Agriculture Division is responsible for the investigation, cultivation, and harvesting of crops in Otherworld worlds; the Commerce Division is responsible for the evaluation, testing, and procurement of goods in Otherworld; and the Mineral Resources Department is responsible for..."

"The Kabane resource recycling and processing plant will be constructed jointly by the Academy of Sciences and the Construction Division, with CIPHER POL receiving assistance from technical personnel from the Industrial Division for its management and protection."

"At the same time, all transferred personnel will receive double the salary and benefits. Those who perform exceptionally well in their work in the Otherworld world will be given priority for evaluation and promotion by the Grand Committee. However, those who are passive or obstruct the World Government's development work will be dealt with seriously!"

Such a long and densely packed speech, with its sheer volume of information, forced everyone to concentrate. The military Admiral and Vice Admiral sitting in the back row, apart from those with political acumen like Sora, Sengoku, and Tsuru, were mostly bewildered, their eyes flashing with a mixture of confusion and awe.

Their feelings at this moment were probably the same: so this is what the World Government is like, and this is what the World Government is like when it gets serious!

"The third item on the agenda is to recognize and commend officials who have performed outstandingly in the Otherworld world!"

At this point, Chief of Staff Alexander Watson's face lit up with an even brighter smile, and his tone became even more enthusiastic, raising the atmosphere in the room.

"Now, I would like to invite the Chief of Staff of the Supreme Governing Committee, Chairman of the Grand Committee, Gillo Lopez, to commend the three individuals who have performed exceptionally well!"

"Addison, Senior Director of State Council Administrative Department, and Lanord, Senior Director of State Council Administrative Department, will be awarded the Vist Third-Class Medal!"

"Dr. Fritz, the director of the Biochemical Research Institute, will be awarded the Sothis Second-Class Medal!"

Meanwhile, the three men, already dressed in formal attire and ready offstage, walked onto the stage amidst rousing music, their faces showing obvious tension and excitement.

However, compared to the other two, Dean Fritz, who is a scientist and the oldest, seemed much calmer.

The officials below were completely speechless; the government's sixth-class medal was practically a legendary item to them.

Basically, only one or two people like that appear every hundred years. The most recent one was Monkey D. Garp, the naval hero who defeated the vicious Rocks D. Xebec in the Battle of God Valley fourteen years ago.

This caused many high-ranking officials, and even the Vice Admiral around him, to subconsciously look at the newly promoted Iron Fist Admiral, especially at the crimson and black striped epaulets on his Coat of Justice that distinguished him from other Admiral.

Actually, he should have been wearing an Ist First-Class Medal on his chest, but Garp didn't want to wear it.

On stage.

Chairman Gillo Lopez had already pinned medals on the excited Addison and Ranode, and with a look of great appreciation, patted them on the shoulder and said a few words of encouragement and praise.

This was actually a recognition from the World Government, recognizing the two as key figures in the Kabane World strategy, and intended to inspire future officials.

But to say they actually did anything worthy of an award, that's really not the case!

When it was Dean Fritz's turn, even Chairman Gillo Lopez's attitude became much more respectful.

The three then bowed to the Five Elders and the Supreme Council members behind them to express their gratitude before slowly stepping down from the stage and leaving the venue. Chairman Gillo Lopez also returned to his seat.

"Now we will proceed to the fourth item on the agenda, a speech by His Excellency Topman Saint Topman Warcury, the Supreme Member of the Supreme Governing Committee!"

After speaking, Chief of Staff Alexander Watson bowed respectfully to the back and stood to the side of the podium.

Under the intense gaze of all the academy-level, ministerial-level, division-level, and all the Admiral and Vice Admiral of the entire army, Topman Saint Topman Warcury stood up unhurriedly and swept his imposing gaze across the entire room.

He then made a strange gesture, bowing towards Mary Geoise, which drew puzzled looks from everyone.

But Topman Saint Topman Warcury offered no explanation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the World Government is now facing a momentous change, a change of the millennium. Any of our past experiences are hardly applicable. We have no reference points, and no way out."

"I know that the road to conquest ahead will be incredibly difficult, filled with countless sacrifices and challenges, but I want you all to know that once we embark on this path, it will either be glorious or it will be annihilation."

"You are all part of the World Government. Without your joint efforts, all the Otherworld strategic plans would be difficult to carry out. Therefore, I hope that you can put in two hundred percent, no, three hundred percent, or even five hundred percent of your effort."

"I know this is asking too much of you, but you should all know that as the number of Otherworld conquered increases, the World Government, this Sea Star, and everyone here will gain more—in things like wealth, health, power, and lifespan."

"Everyone must understand that whatever we desire, no matter how incredible, we can surely find it somewhere in the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, because it represents miracles and hope."

"Alright, this concludes the World Government Supreme Administrative Conference. I believe you will all need to attend more internal meetings in the future, so I will not waste your time or the World Government's time any longer."

"I hereby declare the meeting adjourned!"

It is hereby solemnly stated that the main content of the World Government Supreme Administrative Conference was completed under the guidance and suggestions of the book friend, "National Studies Master".

Moreover, the World Government's extensive bureaucracy depicted in this book was entirely his creation; I merely made minor adjustments.

Because he is an outstanding civil servant in real life, I am very grateful for the great help from the book friend "National Studies Master"!

By the way, the chief of staff of the Supreme Governing Committee and chairman of the Grand Committee, Gillo Lopez, in the book is based on his nickname among readers.

This "National Studies Master" and I aim to create a truly flesh-and-blood World Government in this book, and we hope everyone can join us in this endeavor!

I bet this is the first time many of you have seen such detailed descriptions of the World Government in One Piece One Piece, right? To be honest, I was excited when I wrote it myself!
