A certain scientific pirate

"The location of Durham Island is the most suitable, both in terms of area, population and location...it is just in the direction of the South China Sea, hidden in the windless zone."

This time Roland hung up a precise map, and then pointed out the location of the so-called "Dulun Island".

Mo Fei stood up. He walked to the map and took a closer look. Then he nodded involuntarily... This island looked quite satisfactory, especially because the location was more suitable. At least Mo Fei didn't have to travel from other seas. Carrying an island to the South China Sea.

"Okay." So he nodded.

Roland continued, "The direction of the channel is determined, and it is nothing more than connecting the South China Sea and the Grand Route. So what about a more specific location? I think this is more suitable."

As he spoke, Roland drew a line on the map.

"This place is relatively close to the middle of the first half of the Grand Route, and can achieve the largest radiation range in the direction of the South China Sea. More importantly, if you enter the Grand Route from this location... it can just connect to an emerging business center and convenient transportation. system.

Communicating what is and is not, and bringing together all directions, this is the meaning of the existence of 'route', isn't it? "

Mo Fei was stunned for a moment, then spit out a place name: "The Capital of Seven Waters..."

If the new route is set to the position drawn by Roland, after a ship enters the Great Route from the South China Sea, it will enter the waters of the City of Seven Waters, and the City of Seven Waters is a city with very prosperous free commerce, plus With its unique sea train technological advantages, it has always been the center of the regional economy.

The role of the new route was immediately apparent.

Mo Fei pinched her chin and looked at the map for a long time, and then she said, "I moved the capital of Seven Waters to that location, and I was so forward-looking. It can be said to be tall and strong..."

Roland: "..."

In the past, Roland felt that Mo Fei had this kind of "overall consideration". That is to say, Mo Fei had already thought of the "new route plan" when he planned to relocate the Seven Rivers Capital, so he drew the route in From this position, there was a clear understanding, but now he was doubting his judgment... because some people's reactions were really inconsistent.

But Roland is an excellent employee after all. He doesn’t do work carelessly, and he also knows how to take care of the leader’s face. “If we are close to the Capital of Seven Waters, we can more conveniently take advantage of its technical advantages. In addition to shipping routes, we can even surround the island chain. Establish a sea train system..."

"If time goes by, it will not be a new route connecting the Seven Waters Capital, but the Seven Waters Capital will be included in our system."

"It's an interesting idea. If that's the case... without further ado, let's start taking action. The goal is... um, what island is this?"

"Island of Durham."

…………

One day later, the North Sea Queen left G1 and started sailing in the direction of the Seven Waters Capital. Then they replenished some supplies in the Seven Waters Capital, and then the North Sea Queen cruised in the waters south of the Seven Waters Capital near the windless zone. got up.

Mo Fei did not let the North Sea Queen directly enter the windless zone, because even the steel battleship could not withstand the impact of the super-large Sea King class on the order of brigade... He decided to send a small team to infiltrate Duren Island first.

Roland, Reiju, Zepesh Nir, Alda Wind, Geraint Gawain, Heru Grim, probably these few guys who seem to be useful will carry out preliminary activities. , of course, Mo Fei will also participate, while Avril will stay in the Grand Line to command and control the Queen of the North Sea.

For most people, blindly entering the windless zone is extremely dangerous, but this certainly does not include Mo Fei, who is particularly good at flying in the sky.

After making corresponding arrangements, a group of people boarded a lifeboat and prepared to "break into" the windless zone... in a way that did not involve any risk.

After the lifeboat broke away from the North Sea Queen, it just flew southward. After Mo Fei flew for a while and felt that there was no more wind around him and the clouds in the sky did not move at all, he knew that he had entered the windless zone.

Then he began to lower the height of the boat, and then closed his eyes and listened carefully. Then he felt something dense hidden under the water, so he shuddered involuntarily... How to describe him now? It feels like when he was in the fourth grade of elementary school in his previous life, because he had seen too much about the animal world, one day he suddenly searched the word "snake group" on a search engine, and then a bunch of pictures popped up.

Of course, Neptunes are not scary. What is scary is a large group of Neptunes that can cover the seabed.

So Mo Fei couldn't help but lower her voice when talking to Roland. It didn't sound like she was being cautious, but rather she felt like she was being a thief.

"Roland, how should we find that island? We don't have a pointer or anything like that, and the pointer of the Grand Route may not necessarily work in the windless zone."

Roland didn't have any good ideas, or a stupid approach might be more effective in a place like this. "Keep the speed just now, walk forward for another hour, and then move east and west along the center line of the windless zone, and search slowly."

Mo Fei nodded. Although this method was inefficient, it was the most feasible.

According to this method of searching, it was not until the sun completely set that they discovered a shadow on the sea. After comparing the shapes a little, they determined that this island was the Dulan Island, so they continued... Mo Fei began to airdrop the children.

…………

Early the next morning, a strange young man wearing a sleeveless linen pullover, light gray trousers, and a rag rope tied around his waist appeared on the streets of this hidden city.

Well, this person is Mo Fei.

Although he was dressed more plainly at this time and seemed to have the intention of blending in with the surrounding group, his dress was not professional at all. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that he was not a poor person... The shoes on his feet were too good, how can a poor person be like that? Money wears these shoes.

Poor people usually go barefoot or wear straw sandals. For them, Straw Hat Luffy's "supreme flip-flops" are considered a luxury item.

Furthermore, no poor man would stick two long swords behind his waist.

In short, regardless of whether Mo Fei's attire was professional or not, the reason why he had the intention of carrying out such a disguise was because he had a brief understanding of the island's situation last night:

The total population is between 300,000 and 400,000, and it is a kingdom.

Low productivity, lack of products, class differentiation, and severe isolation. With such a general description, normal people can guess the living conditions of ordinary people on this island...

Absolute poverty.

Therefore, it is impossible to say that "Utopia" exists at all.

Do you know Malthus and population pressure?

Well, Mo Fei doesn't know much about it either, but he believes more firmly in another theory called...

Human nature is inherently evil.
