Chapter 89 Arrival Part 1
Marines are the army. Every soldier in the army can drink, including the Vice-Admirals themselves. So on weekdays, the soldiers on duty in this area are not strict and as long as they do not cause trouble, drinking one or two cups would be fine.
But Rowen is different. He doesn’t drink, and thinks that drinking must be a mistake!
For example, he thought about the night he was congratulated…
Therefore, this Battleship has an extra rule. Everyone can only drink the right amount of alcohol only one day a week, and they must divide the alcohol for all the members into several batches, which are fixed and rationed.
You drink today and the other would drink tomorrow. Everyone takes turns to drink the appropriate amount of alcohol. Rowen caught one soldier who did not follow his orders and the result was…
He really hanged him up with his hands!
Once seven or eight soldiers had stolen a bottle of wine, and after the cook had gone to tell, the group had been tied to the mast for a whole day and were as nearly dehydrated as salted fish when they were laid down.
Under this severe punishment, this order was thoroughly implemented. Although the soldiers with good physique would not be dehydrated if they were hung up for a day, they have seen and laughed at the people who were tied to a mast and they couldn’t afford to be that person!
Hearing the messenger complaining, Rowen smiled and tapped his finger on the hilt of Thunder Cloud and said: “Oh? Do you want to say something?”
Gulp…
“No! We will immediately implement the orders!”
The messenger was so frightened that he began to sweat, and ran to relay the order without saying a word.
By the way, one time when Rowen was experimenting with Thunder Cloud, he accidentally released the thunder and wrapped the entire War Behemoth.
All the Soldiers who were present on the Ship spent their day as charcoal-grilled salted fish. Since then, many people began to get cold sweats when they saw Rowen with his sword and they didn’t want to experience that terrifying again!
After solving the problem of the soldiers’ appetite, Rowen turned around and asked, “Dante, will you guard the Ship or go out to play?”
Dante: “… Rear Admiral Rowen, we are not here to play, but to perform a Mission!”
“Hai, hai! The train to Gourmet City goes back and forth every ten days, and the last one left seven days ago. What would you do in these three days?”
Dante: “…”
…
Half an hour later, the immensely large War Behemoth docked in the middle of Water Seven Galley-Lashipbuilding company’s largest dock Number One.
The mayor of Water Seven Iceberg, who got the news brought all his confidants to greet them. The pirates who came here to repair their ship or buy new ships were hidden in the dark and they cast their eyes on the huge steel Monster and a horrified look appeared on his face.
“What is that? Is that really a Ship?”
“Ok… so big! Say, the dock has enough space for it to dock, right?”
“Is this the Battleship of Marine Headquarters? This is horrifying!!”
It is worth mentioning that Water Seven belongs to the same gray area as Gourmet City.
They not only do ordinary business, but they also help Pirates in repairing their ships.
The shipbuilding craft of Water Seven is well-known on the Grand Line. The Pirate King’s Ship Oro Jackson was built by the legendary Shipbuilder Tom using Treasure Tree Adam.
What a great celebrity effect this is!
The ship of the Pirate King was built here. How can ordinary people bear to not come here?!
Where there is demand, there is interest, and where there is interest, there is business.
Water Seven’s pirate business started just like that.
But even the Oro Jackson was not as big as the War Behemoth.
This is a One Ship Army!!!
This is not a fucking joke.
Looking at the steel mountain-like ship on the harbor, and then looking at their own small ships that are less than above waterline for others. For a while, countless pirates were discouraged and have serious doubts about whether they want to remain as pirates.
This is the awe-inspiring power of the Marine Headquarters!
As a behemoth that suppresses anything on the Sea, even if they say nothing and do nothing, they can bring unspeakable panic among their enemies as long as they appear in front of them!
“Welcome to Water Seven, this is Mayor of Water Seven, Iceberg.”
A team of soldiers holding their guns to their chest stepped forward to disperse the crowd, leaving a passage between them. Two young men in Justice cloaks got off the Ship and walked along the passage towards Iceberg.
A hint of surprise flashed in Iceberg’s eyes, especially when he saw the golden stars on Rowen’s epaulettes, which made Iceberg even more curious.
Such a young Rear Admiral, he seems to have heard of…
Iceberg is characterized by an ever so neatly trimmed purple short hair plus a seemingly never-ending clean-shaven beard scruff. Rowen walked up to him with Thunder Cloud pinned on his belt.
His height had risen again after the continued development of his potential and it was close to two and a half meters, allowing him to look down on most of the people present, including Iceberg.
“You are the mayor, Iceberg?”
For some reason, the plain tone fell in Iceberg’s ears, but he felt an invisible pressure on his body.
“Yes… it’s me! Do you need something, Lord Rear Admiral?”
Iceberg asked as cold sweat appeared on his body.
Rowen didn’t answer in a hurry, moving his eyes slowly over to two CP9 Spys in the crowd behind Iceberg, and then stopping at the outlines of the Ships in Dock One that were covered by tarps and appeared to be about to be overhauled.
Then Rowen smiled a sunny smile.
My Red Coral is saved!
“I’ve heard for a long time that Master Tom’s disciple is a master of shipbuilding, but today I see that you truly do deserve your reputation.”
“Haha, it was because my Master taught me everything. Sir Rear Admiral, I have prepared a dinner at the mansion, and I hope you would grace us with your presence.”
Iceberg smiled when he heard Rowen’s words and could only accompany him, but when he saw the cold light flashing in Rowen’s eyes, his heart tightened and he knew he was about to bleed.
Water Seven is an Allied Kingdom Member, and the Ship Building Industry accounts for more than 80% of the island’s economy, so the Marines have always kept a blind eye on them when they blatantly repaired the Pirate Ships.
But every time someone comes and if they happen to run into the Pirate Ship under renovation then it became necessary for him to spend money to eliminate future disasters.
Iceberg had thought that the young Rowen would not be as shameless as those Marine veterans, and maybe he did not even see the Pirate Ships, but Iceberg clearly underestimated Rowen’s vision, and he also overestimated Rowen’s lower limit.
In terms of shamelessness, if Rowen said that he is number two in the entire World Government then no one would dare to call themselves number one and even the CP0 would testify this!
“It would be good to eat something!”
