Chapter 115: Deal Reached! Ancient Weapon Destruction Plan - Uranus

Some time before.

New World, Fortis Kingdom, Royal Palace, Study Room.

"What's wrong Hashirama?" Ars asked with interest while stopping the work he was doing then looking at Hashirama who had just entered his study.

"I just got information from my clone. He has found the whereabouts of the Ancient Weapon - Pluton" Hashirama said calmly.

"Already found? That's good news" Ars nodded, "Where is it located?"

"As you gave earlier" Hashirama said, "About 7 kilometers from Marijoa's right on the Red Line" Hashirama paused and continued, "That thing is really very big"

"Very large?" Ars asked in confusion.

Hashirama nodded, "Yes. At least the size of the object has a length of more than 1000 meters with a width of more than 300 meters and has a height of more than 100 meters.

"It is one of the ancient weapons that has the power of destroying an island. Of course the size must be big" Ars nodded and said, "What do you think? Can we destroy that weapon with the number of paper bombs we currently have?"

Hashirama frowned in thought for a moment then shook his head, "It's impossible to use the paper bombs we currently have. Although we will destroy that thing from within. However, it will not be completely destroyed with the number of paper bombs we have."

"There's an automatic security system, huh?" Ars muttered and continued, "How many paper bombs would it take to completely destroy that thing?"

Hashirama didn't answer immediately but thought for a moment then said, "... At least 15 thousand to 20 thousand paper bombs must be used to destroy that thing"

"15 thousand to 20 thousand…" Ars muttered, "That's a huge amount"

Hashirama nodded, "Yes. That is indeed a very large number, Ars. Especially the manufacturing process will also take quite a long time."

"How long did it take you to make that many paper bombs?" Asked Ars again.

"How long?" Hashirama frowned, "At least… Two days maybe for me to do it"

"Two days? Can the two working days be done simultaneously while you are carrying out your duties?" Ars asked, "Since tomorrow you have to accompany Jouichirou to go to Whitebeard to have a cooking competition there and it is not impossible that later there will be various kinds of additional tasks"

"I think I can do it" Hashirama said calmly, "I can leave a large number of my clones to carry out the task while I also do mine"

"I see" Ars nodded, "Did our friends know about this plan?"

"Yes" Hashirama nodded, "I already told them except for Robin and Shakky. Neither of them knew this. Shakky will likely find out from Rayleigh soon, while, Robin, I'm not sure he'll find out about this."

"Don't worry about it. It's better if Robin doesn't know this. Robin has a pretty dark past related to ancient weapons. Don't let him find out about this."

"What if he finds out?" Hashirama asked again.

"In that case, it's fine to let him know" Ars said, "I will prepare all the equipment you need for work. Are you going to do it now?"

Hashirama nodded, "It just so happens that I don't have anything to do at the moment. I will try to complete a large number of paper bombs today so that my clone can finish the rest quickly"

Ars immediately went into the system shop to buy a large quantity of paper to be used as a bomb, a small brush, and a large quantity of black ink and then handed it over to Hashirama.

"Previously you already had a stockpile of 3000 paper bombs which are currently in the process of being worked on, right? Here, I have added 17,000 papers that can be used for bombs, a large amount of black ink, as well as more than 50 small brushes that can be used by you to make ends meet."

"Good" Hahsirama immediately put all these items into the storage bracelet he was currently using, "This is really a very helpful tool"

Ares nodded, "Yes. I have a plan to increase the stock quantity for storage bracelets. At least each of us will eventually get one."

"One person one? Doesn't that burden you too much?" Hashirama asked with great interest.

"That's just a plan and it hasn't even been thought of to be realized" Ars said calmly, "My priority right now is to summon Ulqiorra to come to this world" Ars paused for a moment and continued, "Oh, yes. Hashirama. At the time you will do the installation of bombs and others. There is a possibility that you will be seen or known by Marijoa's side. When the task will be carried out by you, use your transformation ability and transform yourself into one of our royal officers serving in the battle division."

"Why is that?" Hashirama asked strangely.

"In order to trick the World Government that the task you are about to do is not you doing it but someone else. This can also increase the World Government's sense of trust in us that not only you are present in our kingdom but other people" Ars said calmly.

"I see" Hashirama nodded, "Who should I use his appearance for?" Hashirama asked with great interest.

"You can use Uchiha Madara's appearance or else you can use one of your subordinate's appearances"

"The appearance of my subordinates… Hmmm…"

"You can think about that later" Ars suddenly continued, "There is still plenty of time for you to decide, whose appearance you want to use in this task this time"

"I see." Hashirama nodded and said, "Oh, yes. Ars. When my clone was on top of Marijoa, I found there were a lot of slaves that Marijoa's side had gathered. Do they really have access to slaves so easily?"

"That is a natural thing for their side" Ars replied, "The World Government itself even though we have previously eliminated the slaves that were there. They have a large stock of slaves."

"Slave stock?" Hashirama frowned.

"The stock of slaves they have is in the East Blue region to be precise in a place called Tequila Wolf. It was a place where the Tenryuubito slaves lived. They were there because they wanted to make a stupid project that the Tenryuubito wanted to make."

"Stupid project?" Hashirama asked again.

"The project itself is called the Tequila Wolf project, the project has the goal of forming a bridge that can connect every island in the world or more specifically the islands in the East Blue region"

"That…" Hashirama was taken aback by this.

"Stupid project, isn't it?" Ars asked calmly, "The East Blue region itself is a very large area and it is also impossible to connect each island using media access as a bridge due to various obstacles such as storms, sea monster attacks and various other threats. However, that in itself was not noticed by the Tenryuubito or more specifically the World Government. They want the project to be completed soon." Ars paused and continued, "Calculating the construction time of the project, at least 700 years have passed and until now the project has not been completed even to reach half progress, it can't be said until now. there despite having used so many slaves to do the job."

"...."

Hashirama fell silent hearing this.

"Currently there has been a taking of slaves from there. There is a possibility that the performance going on there is also currently declining." Ars said calmly, "However, I believe the World Government has also anticipated this by employing pirate captives from Impel Down there and capturing other humans in various places. places especially places that have nothing to do with them to be slaves to work there"

"This is really a very disgusting act" Hashirama said coldly.

"Don't you know that too? It's a normal thing for the World Government to do" Ars said with a sigh, "They will do whatever it takes to make their wishes come true"

Hashirama nodded and looked at Ars, "Ars, if I go take the subordinates from there. Is it okay?"

"From there? You want to do recruitment there?"

"Sure" Hashirama nodded, "However, for first-time recruits. I will target Water Seven Island. I will do the recruitment there after my department is ready to operate"

"Well, if that's what you want. I don't mind it. There were quite a number of talented people there as well. It will be lucky for us if we get children with talent like you. The power of our kingdom will definitely increase and by saving them, they will fully devote themselves to our kingdom."

"That's what I thought" Hashirama said with a smile, "Well, you continue your work. I will go finish my work too"

Ars nodded as he watched Hashirama leave the room. Ars then immediately resumed his work.

Grand Line, Island of Saboundy Archepelago, Area 13.

"This is the 2 billion you want, Hancock" Tsuru said seriously as she handed Hancock a large number of suitcases totaling 2 billion berries, "This 2 billion is according to your previous wish."

"Hmph!" Hancock sniffed then said, "Sonia, Mari. You two take this suitcase and go and store it on our ship."

"Okay, Big Sister"

Sandersonia and Marigold happily carried the suitcases filled with cash with great joy. They didn't expect to gain this big of an advantage just by establishing a cooperative relationship with the Fortis Kingdom.

The current Amazon Lily empire had many sources of income that they previously had none at all. The first source of income was the business of selling products owned by those whose products were obtained from the Fortis Kingdom. The second source of income is taxes from residents who build houses or businesses in their area. The last source of income is from the Navy.

"You guys can build a blockade. However, don't disturb the people who want to come to visit here or who live here." Hancock said coldly, "If that happens, our agreement will be cancelled. You have to get out of here."

"I will remember" Tsuru said then immediately turned to leave Hancock there.

Hancock also without wasting much time went straight back to the ship to continue the work she currently has.

The residents who witnessed this incident became very excited, especially for residents who had built houses and businesses in area 13. Because by joining the Navy, they built a blockade around the area. Their security will be doubled compared to before.

The news about the construction of the blockade was immediately known by all parties on Saboundy Island and also several surrounding areas. Currently, many people have plans to build houses and businesses in area 13, especially for people who have very large assets. Even though they have to pay high taxes, they will still pay them to get a guarantee of safety.

Meanwhile, the Navy is also moving very quickly. They immediately built a blockade surrounding area 13 by opening the blockade at the entrance while all other areas were closed. The person in charge of the blockade was Admiral Kizaru.

This made the news about the construction of the blockade from the Navy even more surprising with the involvement of an Admiral.
