Go back to a year ago.
It has now been three months since the first batch of training camp members left. The strength of the second batch of members is so different from the first batch of members that Kona has no idea of going to them for training.
If you are too weak, you will not achieve anything if you bully them.
And this is not the point. The point is that the overall quality of the second batch of members is more than one level worse than the first batch.
However, this is not incomprehensible. The first batch of members are almost all the core members that Locke values. Many of them are either the best in the branch base or the captains of the pirate group sailing on the Grand Route. Regardless of their strength and vision, They are still the group with the best potential, and they are also the group that has grown the fastest after receiving the devil's experience on Balakan Island.
Of course, the training on Balakan Island is not entirely necessary to enhance the combat effectiveness of these people. Although growth is a big part, it is more about teaching them the way forward as a leader, honing their combat skills, improving their horizons, etc. At the same time, it also has the meaning of making everyone look familiar.
After all, we are all pirates, and we might meet each other on the sea one day. If we don’t know that the other party is one of our own, and they fight fiercely and let the navy pick peaches, then don’t we deserve to be beggars who throw away bowls and pick up steamed buns? .
So it's no wonder that people are so streamlined this time.
After all, only people you can trust can come.
Of course, according to the original plan, it was impossible to only have nine months. Locke felt that nine months would not be able to achieve great results. However, it happened that Kona came with a few leaders to add fuel to the fire. , the training effect far exceeded the initial expectations, and the news about the Sky Island Base was equivalent to giving the 'Lan' organization a new and very safe escape route, so Barragan's training plan was also launched, but The first batch of trainers' list was taken to Sky Island by Locke and became a top secret information.
Yes, roughly 60% of the construction of the sky island has been completed. Although it cannot be said to be completely completed, the main functions are ready for use. You can also take your time with the rest.
It is worth mentioning that the construction of Sky Island is divided into three parts.
The three parts are the Island of God, the original Angel Island, the camp of the Sandians, and the camp of the Bika refugees. and a library in the sky. God Island and Angel Island are connected together, and the two camps are also connected together during subsequent construction. Therefore, these two are one part respectively, and the construction of the sky library is Yuyouzi's latest proposal, and it is also a new construction project after the current project begins to be gradually completed.
The difference from before is that almost all Sky Islanders and Sandians, including Bika refugees, were sent to God Island and Angel Island to live, leaving some people to teach.
The first part is naturally the core island of God. This island, which was originally the main body of Gaya Island in Qinghai, has become the most prosperous living area for Kongdao people. Benefiting from the extremely excellent plasticity of Kongdao Island Cloud, the construction speed of Kongdao is very fast. Quickly, as soon as the island cloud comes out, compress it and shape it, and you will have the prototype of a house. It is extremely efficient. Therefore, in less than a year, the originally dilapidated Divine Island became the prosperous island that is now divided into several large regions. Even half of the time was spent cleaning up the ruins, and not much time was spent on actual construction.
Nowadays, God Island has been divided into two parts: the temple area and the ordinary residential area. After all, the residential area is located outside, and the bridge connecting it to Angel Island is very close, which also facilitates travel between the two sides.
The temple retains the original temple angels, that is, the temple guards, but there is an additional temple meeting hall. This was done after Kona let a few people who liked it after Yuyuko, the shopkeeper, ran away. A place to discuss policy.
There are not many people, including Ganfuer, the old chief of Sandia, Locke, and Jiriya and Aniya. Jiriya and Aniya are both from Bika, and it was Kena who asked questions when she went to Bika. Siblings, they liked it and the two of them had really worked hard this year, so they made arrangements. Overall, the rights of Sky Island have been roughly balanced. Chiefs Ganfor and Sandia represent the original residents of Angel Island. Rocker is only here to safeguard the basic rights of the 'Lan' organization here. However, the Bika people are small and weak, so there are two seats.
The second part is the original Sandia camp and Bika's refugee camp.
These two camps took over and developed an island base named Zeus after Locker arrived. There are not many manpower now, but this is temporary. After the base personnel originally located in the Grand Line are gradually relocated, this will be the real headquarters. The original base was renamed Hersius and became the pseudo-headquarters of the 'Lan' organization.
The third part of the Sky Library is a completely new content. According to Yuyuko's idea, it seems that he wants to rebuild a library on the scale of the Omniscient Tree. Because Yuyuko basically provided the money, Kona couldn't say anything, so she could only follow Yuyuko's wishes, and it was Keya who took over this part.
"Sister Ke Na, why are you free to come to us today?"
Locke said hello, smiling and shuddering.
I don’t know why, but Sister Kona’s temper has not been very good recently. When I asked Tasia, she just gave her a few eye rolls and said nothing.
Kena nodded, but her eyes were still a little cold, which was actually a little different from her during this period. After Yuyuko's psychological counseling and the subtle influence of the Devil Fruit, she rarely puts on facial expressions like this anymore.
It's not that she has a bad interest, it's just that she was bored and remembered something that made her very uncomfortable.
Ke Na understood that maybe she should solve her inner demon nightmare.
"Lockel, how is the establishment of the 'Lan' organization's intelligence liaison in the New World?"
"From the New World?" Locke paused, and then thought for a moment, "As for the New World, we were originally involved, but Sister Kona, you also know that Sister Yuyuko asked us to completely shrink our low-key lives a year ago, so Things in the new world will remain as they are for now."
"Is this so..." Ke Na frowned and started to think.
For a moment, Kona nodded, "I understand. Things in the new world can now be carried out properly. I received news from Yuyuko and Nanami that the world government and navy have fully reduced their management of the new world. As long as they don't go too far. The high profile should not be noticed by the World Government and the Navy. As for the other guys...just pay attention to those guys from the dark forces."
After saying that, Kona turned around and left. When Locke reacted, Kona had already stepped on the air and climbed into the sky. The burst of air flow caused by the burst of air left Locke speechless for a while.
"Fortunately, I have no hair, otherwise I would have to fix my hair again..." Locke murmured, but with tears in his eyes, he took out a handkerchief and wiped it on his smooth head.
"How can we repair it? It's so shamefully smooth!"
…
Having walked some distance, Kona shook her head in the air. At first, she did not like Rocker, a guy with a pirate background, but after getting along with her during this period, Kona gradually understood Yuyuko's book. "Quotations of Leaders"
…
Oh, I forgot, that book was not compiled by Yuyuko.
But it’s not a big problem. Just as Youyouzi said when he first went to sea, you can only know more about everything when you face it. If he hadn't met Yuyuko, he might still be prejudiced against pirates as a group.
This is not to say that this prejudice is wrong. Facts have proved that at least 95% of the pirates are not good people, and the people that the Arashi organization can gather actually have one thing in common. They all have their own bitterness or just pursue the life they want.
There is nothing wrong with this, but without the emergence of the Arashi organization, they might end up living like the 95% of pirates.
Thinking of this, Ke Na stopped. Looking at the white-capped sea, I felt a little dazed for a while.
Yes, it's as if these people have not encountered Locke and the 'Lan' organization. Of course, what would have happened if I hadn't met Yuyouzi?
A chill ran down the spine, making people take a breath.
After a long time, Kena let out a long sigh.
I sighed and felt lucky that I met Yuyouzi, otherwise I would either spend my life wandering on the sea, or sleep forever in the shadow of revenge. What happened in his hometown had long been his nightmare. As soon as he fell asleep, those eyes that were staring at him would follow the rising flames of his hometown and shroud him.
Fear and anger, fear and howling, tears and regret, joy and torture.
If it weren't for the kind and pure eyes of the two of them, he might have died forever one night, or he might have been unable to suppress his inner conflicts and chose to end his life. Only by being wrapped in this kindness can I survive until now, let time wash away hatred, figure everything out, and give myself a new direction.
"It's not relying on...but the hand that pulled me back at the entrance of the abyss..."
Shaking her head, Kona continued to run at high speed in the air. The island of God was not far away, and it wouldn't take long at her speed.
The main hall of the temple is reserved for Youyouzi. Although that guy has run away, everyone knows that even if he doesn't run away, he can't help much.
Just like Mina's treatment in Santa Bobola, Yuyuko is more of a mascot symbol. Kona understands that their respect for Yuyuko may come more from themselves.
Perhaps this is the reason why Youyouzi dared to throw away the blame and run away.
However, there are actually not many things going on in Kongdao, especially after the temple meeting hall was established, unless there are particularly important matters that do not require her to come forward at all.
This is something I learned from Yuyuko.
After all, they are already mature leaders. Shouldn’t management be an innate skill?
For some reason, when she thought of this, Kona's ears heard Yuyouzi's voice that wanted to be beaten, "Sister Kona, you are already a mature vice-captain. You must learn to handle the captain's affairs by yourself." '.
Then why do you need a captain?
'Eh! ! Isn’t being a captain just about paddling? ! '
Kona slapped her forehead and burst out laughing, "What an idiot. He would say anything just to be lazy. This thing about power..."
As soon as they landed at the door of the temple, the two guards guarding them quickly saluted, "God!"
"I'm not a god, forget it, as long as you like it." Ke Na wanted to refute, but after thinking about it, she decided to forget it.
"I just came here this time to let you convey something to a few members of the chamber."
The two guards immediately looked serious upon hearing this.
"Sir, please speak!"
Kona nodded slightly, "I'm going to be away for a while. Don't come to me unless there's something big."
"But... you usually need to make decisions on many things!" a guard said weakly.
Kona glared, "If they say that, tell them."
"You are already mature parliamentarians and should learn to make decisions on your own."
The two guards looked at each other and nodded quickly, "Yes."
