Sea Star's Era of Great Development!
Empress.
The 'Steel Bone' of the High Command received a small white box personally delivered by Stussy.
When he gently opened the box, he found a Diamond ring inside.
The Diamond appears to be ten carats, or one gram in size.
At this moment, Kong was incredibly excited.
Even her eyes were a little red.
Because he knew that although it looked like Diamond, it actually contained a small piece of Pure Gold.
Although it is not very large, it is enough to ensure that its body will no longer age over time.
As for the issue of stagnant strength, why should we care compared to life?
Kong had long since given up on thinking about taking it any further.
Because he is too old, he simply doesn't have any extra potential.
Kong hadn't expected that he would be given Pure Gold from above.
But now that it was on his finger, he was completely devoted to the World Government.
What reward could be more precious than 'eternal life'?
However, the people above explained it to him clearly.
I can't stay in the position of Minister of the High Command Staff forever.
The future will definitely have to be handed over to those below.
He will then move behind the scenes.
This means entering the Supreme Governing Committee and becoming one of the foundations of the World Government.
As for the Pure Gold ring, he can keep it as long as he doesn't leave the World Government.
Of course, the World Government reserves the right to revoke it at any time!
Sea Star days passed by one by Tenten.
The Five Elders and 'Steel Bone' Kong have devoted even more enthusiasm to their respective work.
If in the past we were just passively dealing with things and waiting with a calm attitude, now we are proactively increasing our supervision of the progress of various projects.
While this caused hardship for officials of all ranks and departments, it did indeed improve the efficiency of the World Government by one or two percent.
The 200,000 construction workers brought in from the Demon Slayer World have been assigned to the construction sites of various projects.
The first is the railway construction project that encircles the Red Line.
Then there's the Spring Region (RL0005), the Summer Region (RL0006), the Autumn Region (RL0007), and the Winter Region (RL0008).
These four connected areas were designated as the 'Academy City District'.
There's also the area around RL15558, which will be the campsite for Star Gate No. 0003. In addition, there's the sea bridge project connecting all the medium and large islands in the East Blue.
After all, relying on hundreds of thousands of prisoners to build Impel Down, nobody knows how many years it would take.
In the Five Elders' minds, at least one million laborers should be stationed on this bridge.
Next, the construction of the Air Force Headquarters on the Sky Island also required more workers, as well as the construction of power plants in various places, especially the power plant on Lightning Island, which was a key project.
The World Government's future goal is to provide electricity to every island with a town.
Therefore, the Academy of Sciences is conducting technical experiments and making reserves for tidal power generation, geothermal power generation, wind power generation, and even solar power generation.
And the venue for the 'Myriad Worlds Top 100 Tournament' which will be used next year.
Not only that.
The enormous 'Island-Swallowing Lanternfish' was neither killed nor released due to Imu's covert intervention. Instead, Hozumi sent a 'dango' to the Navy to control it.
Then, have the Medical Academy's Crocus, in conjunction with the Academy of Sciences and the Construction Division, transform the Lantern Fish's body and the three islands into a military-use Marine Base!
It's important to know that these 'Lantern Fish' are not only amazing on land, but they can also swim freely in the deep sea, thousands of meters below the surface.
What's this?
The best biological submarine!
It even has built-in lighting, so this project requires a large number of workers.
After much deliberation, the Administrative Department suddenly realized that 200,000 Demon Slayer laborers were not enough, so they had no choice but to request instructions from higher levels.
Ultimately Topman Saint Topman Warcury ordered the import of another 500,000 laborers and all the famous architects from the Demon Slayer World!
At the same time.
Thanks to Stella's live interviews with Mitsuri Kanroji Sabaody Archipelago and the Ubuyashiki family from Wano Island, people all over the world of Sea Star have gained a better understanding of the 'Demon Slayer Corps'.
Naturally, the Demon Slayer World no longer feels so unfamiliar.
Gradually, when people discussed another world, it was as if they were discussing a kingdom in another sea; their thoughts and attitudes began to change.
Unfortunately, it wasn't so easy to interview the people in the Kabane World.
Biba Amatori is in the General Staff, Souei. Sho Wei is in the Biochemical Research Institute, Ikoma is in the Weapons Research Institute of the Academy of Sciences, Horobi is in CIPHER POL, Hozumi is on Zou's back, which is now Air Force base.
It can be said that although each person's position is not very high, they are all in a highly confidential department.
At this time, Tesoro, who was already the Vice Warden of the Media Bureau of the Publicity Department, suddenly had a brilliant idea and suggested to the minister that the stories of "Demon Slayer Corps" and "Kabane World" be compiled into manga and sold.
This will not only increase income, but also allow the people of the Sea Star to accept and become familiar with the existence of the Otherworld more quickly!
Tesoro's idea has attracted some attention.
After several meetings within the Publicity Department, it was decided to give it a try and establish a 'Manga Office' under the Media Bureau to produce two manga, tentatively titled 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba' and 'Kabaneri of the Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress'.
To this end.
The Media Bureau began sending staff to various Affiliated Nation to inquire about people skilled in drawing or who had drawn comic strips.
However, these matters are considered secondary tasks for the World Government.
In comparison.
The transportation problem at Reverse Mountain clearly needs to be resolved as soon as possible.
The Five Elders are incredibly intelligent; they can certainly realize that in the future, all kinds of exchanges between the Grand Line and the Four Seas will definitely become more frequent.
Relying solely on the single entrance/exit at Reverse Mountain is definitely not enough!
Therefore, relevant departments began to gather professionals and officials at all levels to study the transportation problem of the Sea Star and found that there were only two solutions.
The best solution is to open up the Calm Belt on both sides, but how to deal with the Sea King is a big problem.
Someone mentioned that Water Seven is developing a 'Sea Train,' which is said to be able to repel Sea King. We could definitely give it a try.
But nobody knows when the 'Sea Train' will be built; it's not something that can be accelerated by simply piling on manpower and resources.
Then there's only one other way: take the empty road!
It is possible to travel by air, but the biggest problem is the Grand Line's extremely chaotic magnetic field and unusually extreme weather, unless one travels from above 7,000 meters.
What can fly at an altitude of 7,000 meters, carry a large number of people and cargo, and sustain long-duration flights?
Airship!
Ultimately, it was discovered that all they needed to do was have the Academy of Sciences modify the 'Hans Tiger Airship' from the Demon Slayer World, and then prepare some fixed take-off and landing sites.
This would completely transform the sky above 7,000 meters into a 'High-Speed Air Route' for Sea Star, allowing everyone to freely travel between various sea areas!
No doubt about it, now that we have a solution, we need to get to work.
The Construction Division searched for locations with relatively stable climates to serve as airship bases for various segments of the Grand Line, while the Academy of Sciences began researching airships.
The Industrial Division sent people to the Hans Tiger Country in the Demon Slayer World to collect their existing airships and all related manufacturing data.
In short, the entire Sea Star area has entered a period of vigorous development.
Under the command of the Otherworld Strategy Committee, various human and natural resources from the Demon Slayer World and Kabane World were being transported day and night through the Star Gate to the Sea Star Homeworld.
