World Military Draft is in full swing, and media all over the world have joined in reporting on this grand recruitment. Especially World Economy News Paper, which is in charge of Morgans, has joined forces with the Marine Headquarters Information Office to publish this unprecedented grand recruitment of the Navy to the world through newspapers.
While the whole world is paying attention to this major naval recruitment event, Marine Headquarters officers at all levels in charge of this recruitment are so busy that they are dizzy, especially Marine Headquarters's financial department, which spends money like water every day.
Because now the number of recruits counted by the headquarters and major branches has exceeded one million.
For such a large team, apart from anything else, the food and accommodation for each soldier is a very huge expense. The most important thing is that Akira Navy Marshal has been pursuing a salary first policy since he came to power.
Furthermore, once the training of new recruits is completed, the one million additional soldiers will be sent out for internship one after another. The training ship and the warships required by each branch are far from enough.
Finally, the navy's major branch bases must also be expanded, especially the two top priorities: soldier dormitories and training venues.
All of the above require huge financial support. Although Akira obtained an astronomical amount of funds through the bloodbath of Holy Land Shepard and Markas families, it will not take long for them to come up with nothing.
Fleet Admiral's Office.
Several officers headed by Hina formed a temporary Marshal assistant team and worked day and night to handle the mountain of documents for Akira.
Akira Although I feel a lot more relaxed, I almost treat the office as my home.
"Lord Marshal, the number of registered recruits sent from each branch has exceeded 1.2 million!"
At this moment, Hina came to the desk with a brand-new information, and then said, "Although it is almost over now, new soldier information is still coming from each branch. If this continues, this recruitment will not expand to 1.5 million, but will add 1.5 million. The funds required for such a large recruit team far exceed the budget!"
"Don't worry,"
Akira waved his hand and said with a smile, "Aren't there still funds for the tributes from New World's so-called Underworld emperors? Don't worry, even if there are two million more soldiers, plus the property of Holy Land's two Celestial Dragons families, the funds will be completely sufficient!"
Hina frowned slightly and said, "The funds are sufficient now, but in the long run, the navy will fall into a funding crisis before long."
"This is indeed a problem!"
Akira nodded, "Although Rosward Family's industry has now been taken over by the navy, and Grand Line's transportation has been fully managed by Strawberry. As long as the transportation company's ships are moving, they can start generating income, but we do need a longer-term plan!"
"Lord Marshal, isn't there Affiliated Nation's Heavenly Gold?"
At this moment, Noah, who was also a member of the assistant team, suddenly stood up and said with a serious expression, "Celestial Dragons used to go to Affiliated Nation to collect the Heavenly Gold, but this year because Reverie is going to be held, the major Affiliated Nation kings should bring their Heavenly Gold to Holy Land!"
Hearing this, Akira was surprisingly not excited by the words Heavenly Gold, but fell silent.
It is true that Affiliated Nation must hand over a certain share of Heavenly Gold to Holy Land every year, but before that, many countries impose various taxes on their own people in order to hand over Heavenly Gold, and some even collect taxes decades later.
It is precisely because of this that even though he initially proposed to collect half of Heavenly Gold as naval funding every year, he did not always think about Heavenly Gold.
For the Affiliated Nation royal family and nobles, these Heavenly Gold are a stepping stone to please World Nobles Celestial Dragons and the basis for maintaining their rule, but for every Affiliated Nation citizen, they are a knife that kills people without blood.
At this moment, Gion walked in.
Seeing this, Akira was no longer silent, and simply said, "Gion, you came just in time, I give you a task!"
"Okay!"
Gion quickly came to the desk and stood side by side with Hina.
"Immediately go to Sabaody Archipelago to arrange a hotel, then contact Doflamingo and ask him to invite all the Celestial Dragons who participated in the Pangu Square protest to Sabaody, saying that I will entertain them."
"In addition, notify Fujitora and Ryokugyu that they do not need to participate in officer training and ask them to report to Fleet Admiral's Office immediately!"
"Okay." Gion wrote them down one by one, then turned around and left.
Seeing this scene in his eyes, Hina blinked blankly and said cautiously, "Lord Marshal, we are talking about funding issues now. Why did you suddenly change the topic? Hina doesn't understand!"
"Don't understand?"
Akira organized the documents that Hina put on the desk and put them next to him, and then said, "In the next period of time, you will be my accompanying secretary. By then, you will no longer be confused or curious!"
"Now I give you the first task!"
Akira took out a new document from the drawer and handed it to Hina, "You should immediately contact Galley-La Company from Water Seven and order a batch of warships from them. The quantity and requirements of large warships, medium warships and small warships are all in this document. I have only one request. Funds are not a problem, but they must increase the speed while ensuring quality!"
"Yes!"
When it comes to work, Hina immediately gets into the mood, takes the information and starts working.
At the same time, Fujitora Issho and Ryokugyu Aramaki, who received the notice from Gion, also walked into the office.
"Lord Marshal!"
The two people who came to the desk raised their hands and saluted almost at the same time, then straightened their bodies and waited for Akira's instructions.
Akira didn't waste any time and went straight to the point. "Fujitora, you don't need to participate in officer training anymore. I need you to do one thing, and that is to immediately use you Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral As someone who is leading a warship to sea, be sure to understand the tax situation in all Affiliated Nation countries before the Reverie is held! As long as it is a country that will receive taxes for more than one year in the future, you should write them all down in a small notebook."
Fujitora was completely stunned and said a little feebly, "Visit and investigate all Affiliated Nation before Reverie? Akira Marshal, this is an impossible task. Reverie is about to be held. Visit all Affiliated Nation in such a short period of time..."
"Don't worry," Akira stopped Fujitora from continuing, and simply said, "I will give you the Marshal order, and all branches and bases from Four Blues to Grand Line will assist you. Remember, this It is a big deal. In the past, World Government only cared about collecting Heavenly Gold and did not care about the life and death of all Affiliated Nation people, which made it more difficult for the Navy to maintain order and peace at sea. Next, the Navy will no longer sit back and watch this happen."
"World Government can't take care of things or doesn't want to take care of them, I will take care of them!"

In the next period of time, two updates will be uploaded at the same time, so I can't make ends meet, so I need to save some energy to start a new book.
I want to write an original novel about men wearing women's clothes, and I want to adapt a short play! I want to...
Okay, actually I just want to ask for some power generation with love.
