Anime Heroine Who Travels Through the Blackened Way

"Huh, I think so. But if you want to build this country, I'm afraid you will need the help of this boy, right?"

Turning his gaze to Luffy, who was puffing his mouth, Ahe certainly knew the importance of rubber alloys. Taking the simplest one as an example, how high the horsepower of a steam engine can be depends largely on the pressure of its boiler. Particularly strong cylinder pressure-bearing alloys are not difficult to find in this world, but what is difficult to find is the rubber material that can be used on valves. If there can be a special alloy that has both rubber sealing properties and steel toughness to make valves, then The horsepower of the steam engine can undoubtedly be increased by a lot. For the world government that uses steam technology, whether it is warships, fortresses, trains and other important places, it is a decisive material that can determine the level of technology.

At present, it seems that there are only two people who can make this alloy, one is Nami, and the other is Luffy. Moreover, it is all related to the Devil Fruit abilities of these two people. If something happens to these two people, then the regenerated Devil Fruit will not know where in the world it will fall.

"Of course, Luffy will definitely be the number one noble in my country. Naturally, Lieutenant General Garp and other relatives of Luffy will also be members of this noble family. As long as my country still exists, this noble family will always exist. It will not be cancelled, that’s what it means to live with the country.”

Speaking of this, Nami also felt a little bit laughable: she did have the idea of ​​​​finding a decent island and then building a land base. However, considering that the size of the country in the pirate world is not rigorous, an island is called There are many examples of countries, so asking for a legal country name seems to be a good side game. After all, it's not easy for her to have some fun now.

"Ha~ interesting little girl. Okay, I will report your request to the headquarters in detail. If the government asks for my opinion, I will try my best to meet your request. But, correspondingly, you know what to do, right? ?”

The corner of his mouth raised slightly, Ahe didn't care about the names of these countries. Anyway, as long as Nami didn't rob the existing countries, there would be as many desert islands in this sea as she wanted. She wanted to find a piece of land for herself. Playing in one country is no big deal. What Ahe wants is her solid commitment.

"Of course, regardless of whether the founding of the country is successful or not, I can accept orders to supply rubber alloys to the Navy Headquarters, but of course~ you can only think about how to forge those alloys yourself."

Nami was not surprised at all by Ahe's agreement. After all, the other party was a woman known as the chief staff officer of the headquarters. If she couldn't see these things clearly, she would be blind.

"But on the other hand, I have another request."

However, Ahe's words were obviously not finished yet, and with a slight sideways glance, Nami waved her hand gracefully, indicating that the other party should continue.

"I hope you will give the position of prime minister of your country to this boy, or other family members of this boy."

These unexpected words silenced the surrounding air. Nami did not expect that this old lieutenant general would do this to her. What is certain is that if she agreed to Lieutenant General Ahe, no matter the road, Whether Fei becomes the prime minister or not means that Nami cannot establish another person as the prime minister, but can only choose someone from the Monchi family.

However, Luffy's IQ and personality are obviously not suitable. Dragon's words are now leading the revolutionary army up and down in the new world. Garp's words are also inconsistent with his personality. So this is actually...

"Is this good? By the way, are you planning to interfere with our country's political power in the name of the Monchi family?"

This trick naturally didn't faze Nami, but it made her feel the cunningness of the old lieutenant general in front of her. That's right, what Ah He wants is not the empty title of prime minister, but a reason to legally interfere with her country's political power. In other words, as long as this old woman says something like, 'This is a proposal made after consulting the prime minister, Mr. Monchi,' it means that she can legally interfere in the internal affairs of the Nami country.

And Garp must have no power to parry in front of Ah He. After all, these two people have been together since they were young. It is not surprising that they are a bit old and in love, so it is probably certain that Ah He On the surface, Crane's proposal was to ask Nami to make the Monkey family the prime minister of her new country. In fact, it was better to say that she, or the Navy Headquarters, had this power. In this way, whether she is monitoring Nami's behavior or deciding on the supply plan for the headquarters' supplies, she can intervene calmly. This mind and wisdom that seeks to take the initiative as much as possible for the Navy Headquarters is indeed worthy of being known as the Navy Headquarters' chief staff officer.

"No, this kid is very important, right? In fact, I have always wanted to suggest Garp to take him to my side and discipline him personally. Now, it seems like it's not too late, right?"

Raising her hand to hold Luffy's head, Ahe's lips also showed a smile of success: indeed, Nami can use the combined importance of her and Luffy to force Ahe and the World Government, but in turn, Ahe Crane can also use Luffy to counter Nami's current 'raw material' identity. After all, Luffy is Garp's grandson, and this blood relationship makes it natural to discipline him.

"Ha~! You cunning old woman~!"

Involuntarily, she felt a sense of excitement. Nami had to admit that the old woman in front of her was indeed her strong opponent in intelligence. Although there was a gap in professional knowledge between the other party and her, she still had two lifetimes. Taken together, they didn't live half as long as the other person. The gap in experience and knowledge made the two of them reach a subtle tie at this moment.

"Haha, each other, cunning little girls."

Looking into Nami's eyes as well, Ahe undoubtedly felt the same feeling. Meeting an opponent in terms of force is certainly worthy of joy and pleasure, but the same is true when a general meets a talented person in a battle of wits. In the years since she was known as the Navy's chief staff officer, few people have been able to reach such a level with her simply in a battle of wits.

However, at this moment, a particularly discordant voice suddenly emerged.

"No~! I don't want to be the prime minister of the country, I want to be the Pirate King~!"

The sullen Luffy was undoubtedly tired of this conversation that he couldn't understand, and he had already eaten all the boiled fish in the basin. It was just because of the pressure of Ahe and Nami that he couldn't He had to sit here, and now he heard that the two people had decided to make him the prime minister of some country. Naturally, he couldn't help but protest loudly.

"..."

"..."

Looking at Luffy in tacit understanding, Nami and Ahe also looked away again. Obviously, smart people should not listen to fools when making decisions.

"Well, since you can seize this opportunity, as a reward for rare smart people, this condition should be met. I agree. In the future, within my country, the position and selection of the prime minister will always be from Monchi. The selection is within the family, whether I’m here or not.”

Leaning her body on the back of the chair, Nami didn't think much of it. Anyway, in her eyes, the country was just a whim opportunity for fun. After all, if she wants to get better material conditions, she still has to go as far as possible on this road of capital development, and the name of a country is undoubtedly worth more than a simple department. Louder.

"Well, then it's settled."

Nodding, Ahe also nodded simply, then stood up and left her seat. Obviously, her goal had been achieved, so there was no need to continue to drag things out here.

Watching Ahe and his party leave, Nami also shrugged slightly. No wonder the female lieutenant general came in person. If it were the other inexperienced naval generals, they probably wouldn't be able to handle such a thing at all. At most, they would have to. Report the information, and then it has to be handled by Ahe or Sengoku. Among a group of warriors who only have muscles in their minds, it is indeed quite troublesome to have such a female lieutenant general who is responsible for strategy and politics.

"Nami~! I told you, I want to be the Pirate King! I don't want to be the Prime Minister of the country!"

And Luffy, who was sitting cross-legged on the chair opposite Nami angrily, with his arms folded, repeated his words with an extremely serious expression, which made Nami who turned around couldn't help but shake her head: "Luffy, If I were you, I wouldn’t just keep talking, so let’s make a bet now.”

"Yeah! Say it!"

Two streams of white mist were sprayed out of his nose. Luffy was obviously trying hard, and when he raised his right index finger, Nami put it in front of Luffy, her tone of voice was very clear.

"One year, one year from now will be the time for you to go to sea, right? If you can still find all your companions by then, I will let you go out to the East China Sea to be your pirate king. If you can't go out to the East China Sea by then, You can't find the partner you want, you..."

"Just stay in the position I assigned you and accept your new destiny honestly as an imperial prime minister."

(PS1: Ah~~The third update is completed~~So, we still owe 29 updates~~)

(PS2: Alas~ In every world, the most valuable person is always the protagonist~~ Let’s not talk about bloodline, the one who can provide the most resources~)

Wulaoxing's answer

But people who can build certain things usually have a bad habit. Because they are architects themselves, they hope to artificially select or shape the materials they like. It's just that compared to architects who build houses, the materials used by architects in these construction projects are not earth, stone and mud, but talents who can determine the intensity of the business.

The same thing as an architect who builds a house is that some 'building materials' always need to be hammered extra and unnecessary corners or redundant parts are trimmed off before they can become the most ideal building materials. Sleek materials and talents are not suitable as a foundation, but materials and talents that are too square and heavy are not suitable for decoration and embellishment. The firm and hard material is suitable for the pillars of the courtyard, and the soft and gorgeous material is suitable for the carpet to pave the ground.

Although Nami maintains a basic respect for other people, this does not mean that she can get rid of the habit of selecting and shaping materials by herself. After all, this is also an advantage in a sense, because only carefully selected materials can be made. Able to build the most solid and unstoppable things.

Therefore, for her now, Luffy is undoubtedly the 'protagonist' level material. His rubber ability is already the only ultra-precious material in the world, and his character is firm and responsible. Quite suitable as beams and columns. It's just... such a good pillar, but there is a wheel of 'wanting to be the Pirate King' under the feet, which makes Nami have to think about how to knock this wheel off the opponent.

The reason that made her think this way was that she discovered another common characteristic of Devil Fruit users.

To put it simply, she probably drew Luffy's blood twice in total, the first time when the two met for the first time a few months ago, and the second time not long ago. The rubber alloys forged from the blood of these two bloods at different times also have different toughness. Nami could confirm that there was no difference in the steel ingot materials and processing procedures used between the two, but the rubber alloy made from the blood taken the second time was significantly stronger in toughness. Obviously, this can only be said to be that Luffy's own abilities have been improved during training, and the blood flowing with the rubber fruit's abilities in his body has also improved the purity of his abilities accordingly.

Therefore, the rubber alloys that have been endowed with characteristics will have an increase in toughness. This is explained by the fact that under the same blood quenching process, they have obtained Devil Fruit abilities with higher purity than before, which obviously makes sense. .

After all, the ability of the Devil Fruit is not static. According to the conscious training of the user, its ability will continue to improve, and even reach the point of awakening that affects the things around it. In order to go to sea, Luffy has never stopped training over the years. Although he still does not have a mentor like Rayleigh to effectively guide him, it is inevitable that his own strength will increase with continuous training.

In short, if Nami wants to get the best rubber alloy, it must be the blood of Luffy when he is at his strongest. But if you want to achieve this, you must be able to find the other party at any time.

"Well... I really don't want to miss the material that grows automatically."

In the bedroom of the Enterprise, Nami also carefully observed a map of the East China Sea in her hand. This was an abbreviation of the entire East China Sea that she had drawn based on all the regional charts she had collected during this period. A nautical chart, and it is undoubtedly much more precise than those in the store that only have a rough outline. Obviously, although she is used to being willful in her usual personal behavior, she is still not naive enough to get angry.

Therefore, wanting Luffy to move forward according to his own plan is not only a matter of curiosity about changing the original work, but also for her industry and career.

Although she had read the original work, she had no intention of letting it reappear in her body. After all, for her, careful planning and steps were the themes of her previous life. Living like a pirate was something she couldn't even consider or speculate about.

Perhaps, there is also a bit of ambition to change the original plot of this world.

Seymour Shiki Village, the location of the demon sword Kasashi and the swordsman Zoro, Windmill Village, the location of Rubber Fruit Blood and the protagonist Luffy, and... Cocoa West Village where Nami is no longer. Nami's fingers slid one by one on the chart. If we say who are the three most important characters on a ship, then the one with the highest authority is undoubtedly the captain. However, the remaining two, namely the deputy captain and the navigator, are not strictly ranked.

After all, humans have to establish prestige based on personal importance. As an important being who can correctly guide the ship to a safe area, the navigator's power on the ship is also second only to the captain. If the orders of the captain and first officer are disobeyed, only one or two or some people may die. But if the navigator's order is disobeyed, a whole ship of people may die.

It is precisely because of the extremely high prestige and power of navigators that in some real-life pirate ships, the captain himself often also takes on the duties of a navigator. It can be said that the three major professions on a ship are the captain, deputy captain and navigator.
