How to Better Exploit the Teigu World!

These were the old Divine Dragon's sincere words.

Naturally, this was clearly heard by the World Government's high-ranking military and political officials, which caused thoughtful expressions to appear on their faces.

Negotiation?

What are we going to talk about? Should we get this nation from the Teigu World to join the World Government?

Thinking about it carefully, it seems like nothing is impossible.

The World Government has maintained a membership system for nearly a thousand years, so they are very familiar with this kind of thing.

This is truly the first time in history that a kingdom from Otherworld has been formally brought in.

Inside the Otherworld Strategy Committee.

Chairman Fernandez placed his fingers interlaced on the table and looked at Vice Chairman Bulwo - Gabriel beside him.

"Didn't that empire send a diplomatic team before? What were the arrangements?"

"Commissioner Saffrey and Secretary O'Connor led them to the World Government branch on Paradis Island."

Vice Chairman Bulwo Gabriel answered in a deep voice.

"The main purpose is to show them the military might of the Canberra Continent, the cruelty of an absolutely free society, and the suffering of forced labor that the Eldians are experiencing."

"As for formal negotiations, they won't act recklessly without explicit instructions from above."

Chairman Fernandez nodded in satisfaction.

"So, we'll start with a show of force from all sides? Good. Let's send a group of people back first and deliver this information to the imperial high command."

"OK."

Vice Chairman Bulwo Gabriel agreed, but did not immediately get up to do it, after all, this kind of thing was not urgent.

"Chairman, if the higher-ups really decide to hold negotiations, shouldn't we consider the procedures and content in advance?"

At this point, Kongming spoke up and offered his idea.

"Indeed, it's possible that the World Government's first Otherworld Affiliated Nation will appear in this Teigu World," Chairman Fernandez agreed.

The chairpersons and Vice Chairman at the conference table then began to discuss this topic.

"First of all, I think the premise of negotiation is that we must give the other side enough deterrence. Only in this way can we take the absolute initiative."

The ever-resourceful Vice Admiral Kongming immediately considered the negotiations from the military's perspective.

"And in my opinion, the World Government's current deterrence over all parties in the Teigu World is insufficient."

He was seen rapidly processing his thoughts, clearly articulating his ideas as he spoke.

"Although Vice Admiral Bullet's side achieved a series of great victories, even killing the enemy's Army General, and Admiral Aokiji's side captured the enemy's Navy Admiral alive, these only shocked the Empire, but did not instill much fear in them."

"Why?"

"Because they feel they still have Five-Path Rotary Furnace, as well as Supreme Teigu, Strategic Teigu, Stigmata Alchemist, and those super Danger Beasts. These things provide them with a great deal of security."

"Therefore, we must make them understand that these things may serve as bargaining chips, but they cannot be relied upon to confront the World Government."

Chairman Fernandez paused for a moment to process what he had just said, then asked, "So, what exactly do we need to do?"

"Since we're going to make them the first Otherworld Wano Country to officially join the World Government, I think they should be given ample pomp and circumstance."

Kongming Vice Admiral continued.

"For example, in addition to the Admiral who have already participated in the war, we would invite the Three Armies Fleet Admiral, the two honorary Admiral, and most of the Vice Admiral, Rear Admiral, and Commodore from the Army Headquarters to visit the Teigu World for the subsequent negotiations."

"They don't have to do anything, they can just sit there and watch!"

"Furthermore, we can have the various factions in the Imperial World organize what they consider to be their strongest fighting force for a 'friendly sparring' session before negotiations with us!"

His words drew nods of approval from the other Vice Chairman.

Vice Chairman Bulwo Gabriel, who was in charge of administration, laughed and said, "In this way, combined with what that diplomatic team saw, it should be enough to create a strong deterrent effect on the entire Teigu World!"

"The main reason is that the value of this Teigu World is exceptionally vast, and I personally believe it deserves the World Government's attention."

Kongming gently waved the white feather fan in his hand and smiled slightly.

"Value? Certainly."

Vice Chairman Hobson Samuel, who was in charge of the judicial aspect, nodded.

"The physical constitution of humans in the Teigu World is much better than that of the previous three Otherworld; the physical strength of the general population is only slightly weaker than that of the people of the Sea Star."

"Those trained soldiers generally reached the level of Sea Star males, and the so-called experts were comparable to our regular soldiers, even to captains."

"At least as a source of recruits, it's quite good."

However, Maren Wilfred, the Vice Chairman in charge of finances, said, "I am more concerned about the Danger Beasts in this world than people."

"They have very high military, economic, and experimental value, and it would be even better if they could be bred on a large scale."

"Don't forget, those so-called Teigu and Shingu are made from the biological materials of these Danger Beasts."

Chairman Fernandez couldn't resist getting involved as well.

"The alchemy of the Alchemi Kingdom is also of Little Cutie value. This Teigu World is indeed a rare treasure trove. From this perspective, they certainly deserve to be Affiliated Nation!"

But Vice Admiral Kongming said something else.

"But the Empire, Divine Harmony, and Alkemi are three countries; the World Government cannot grant them all membership."

"Moreover, given the size and value of the Teigu World, once it joins the World Government, it will most likely be given a seat at the Reverie, which means that a corresponding number of Sea Star Homeworld Affiliated Nation will inevitably have to withdraw."

"And it seems there are many other small countries and various ethnic groups in the Teigu World. How do you deal with them?"

Chairman Fernandez raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself that this was indeed a problem, neither too big nor too small.

Certainly.

Those small countries can be ignored for now, but the Empire, the Divine Harmony, and Alkemi are three countries that cannot be overlooked.

Their size, value, and strength seem sufficient to qualify them as representatives of the Teigu World to join the World Government.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been fighting each other for a thousand years, with neither able to gain the upper hand.

In an instant.

Everyone fell into deep thought because of this question.

Kongming was also slowly fanning himself with his feather fan, quietly pondering. They were the Otherworld Strategy Committee, and matters concerning the Otherworld were naturally their responsibility.

After a long pause, he slowly spoke, drawing the attention of the others.

Is it possible for them to form their own entity?

"What's the meaning?"

Vice Chairman Maren Wilfred asked, puzzled.

Meanwhile, Vice Chairman Bulwo Gabriel, who had always been involved in administration, seemed to have thought of something after silently reciting Kongming's words.

"You mean to have these nations of the Teigu World form a united organization, and then have them join our World Government as representatives?"

"Yes!"

Kongming's mind was filled with inspiration, and various ideas flowed out like a spring, his eyes shining brightly during the process.

"This way, the World Government won't need to send a large number of officials to manage the Teigu World; at most, they can provide some development policies that are beneficial to us."

"It also allows the organization to efficiently prepare all the necessary resources; we just need to send people to receive them."

Chairman Fernandez clapped his hands and burst into laughter.

"Great idea! And with such a broad framework, it will be easier for us to manipulate these three countries through political means!"

Kongming nodded and agreed.

"Yes, we can even send our officials to infiltrate this organization. Of course, covert surveillance by CIPHER POL is also necessary!"

In the following period, the high-ranking members of these Otherworld Strategy Committee began to fill in various details.

There was also discussion about what costs, obligations, and responsibilities the nations of the Teigu World would have to pay for joining the World Government.

To put it bluntly, it's about how to better exploit them.

Most of the discussions in this chapter came from the members of the "World Government Supreme Power Council" in the book club!

Actually, much of the content in this book came about in this way; it wasn't just my idea.
