The Black Duke of the Pirate

For the family members of Reinhardt Co., Ltd., the Six Styles can greatly improve the fighting strength of the family members, especially Brat, who has already eaten the Devil Fruit from an ancient species of the animal system. If he practices the Six Styles

Putting it on the agenda will be very beneficial to improving overall strength in the future.

This is also the reason why Reinhard has always coveted the Sixth Form, but has never had a good chance to get it. This kind of navy's highest physical skill is simply impossible to get from all over the world. For him, from all over the world, it is impossible to get it.

Starting at the Naval Academy is the best opportunity.

The next day, Reinhard met with Ulma, who was busy being promoted to brigadier general. Ulma naturally knew his intention and did not refuse his earlier offer to borrow a navy warship.

On the one hand, Reinhardt's brewery brought huge financial benefits to him and the Gardan Naval Branch every year. On the other hand, the opportunity to be promoted to brigadier general this time was entirely because of Reinhardt's secret assistance.

It's just a naval warship. This request is not outrageous. Besides, there is no need for Ulma to make Reinhard unhappy because of this kind of thing. After all, he hopes that the cooperation can continue smoothly.

"I have requisitioned all the sea tower stones from the Jiadan branch, and found some for you from other branches, and then filled the bottom of the warship." There are many ways to reach the East China Sea from the North Sea, but for now, the Rhine

The easiest thing for Hart to achieve is to use the sea tower stones loaded on the bottom of the navy warship to enter the Great Route from the North Sea, then cross the windless zone from the Great Route and directly enter the East China Sea.

Returning is even simpler. From the East China Sea, we can directly enter the Upside Down Mountain and enter the reverse current leading to the North Sea. Because naval warships are driven by wheels, as long as the power is sufficient, they can completely cross the distance impacted by the reverse current.

Before Reinhard could speak, Ulma continued: "However, the warship can be used by you, but the navy cannot be lent to you. As you know, the navy of the Katan branch itself is not much. In addition, the navy has been with the navy in the past year.

The thieves are fighting, and there are not many manpower left."

"That's no problem. I'll solve the manpower problem myself." Reinhardt had no objection to this. "But I want to slightly modify the warship. Is that okay?"

"I will give you the warship. When you come back, I will purchase a few sailboats from your shipyard. You have to give me a discount." Ulma squinted and smiled, and a huge sailboat was changed into

Warship, Ulma can get half of the oil and water from the middle.

Reinhardt nodded. The shipyard was completely completed last month. It also successfully built large sailing ships and received many orders in the North Sea.

It was already noon when he came back from the Jiadan branch. He first went to the brewing factory to prepare the brewing formula for the next six months. Then he visited the workshop, experimental base, farm and other places, and explained everything one by one.

Afterwards, he returned to the King's Hall.

There were already many people standing in the King's Hall. After seeing Reinhardt coming in, the ministers hurriedly walked over to pay their respects.

"Duke Reinhardt and I will leave the North Sea for a while. From now on, all affairs in the kingdom will be handed over to Minister of War Bratt." On the Iron Throne, Fiona glanced at the ministers with a stern face, and then spoke.

All the ministers were startled, and then they all cast their eyes on Reinhardt next to the Iron Throne. Seeing that he had been silent, they all replied: "Yes, His Majesty the King."

"Colin, please report on the current financial situation of the kingdom." Fiona's delicate face was painted with light makeup and she looked stunning. Especially with the queen's noble temperament, she looked even more beautiful.

Colin, an old fox, glanced at Reinhard on the side and was a little surprised. Why did the queen on the stage suddenly ask about the kingdom's financial situation? She had never asked about these things in the past. More than this, he was puzzled.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to go back to the study to get the account book." Colin bowed his old body and then said.

At this time, Reinhardt's eyes that had been closed finally opened, and all the ministers were shocked. Today's Reinhardt... seemed to be very different from usual. There was an occasional light blue light in his dark eyes.

In a flash, everyone who knows him well knows that whenever this happens, it proves that Reinhard is going to kill someone.

"Get the account book!" Reinhardt said softly, and then two guards came from outside the hall. Next to the guards was a man in a suit and leather shoes. He had a broken beard and short hair, and his face was calm and confident.

"See His Majesty the King, Your Majesty the Duke." The man, led by the guards, bowed towards the stage.

Fiona didn't say anything, and Reinhardt next to her spoke: "Sake, please announce the financial situation in the ledger."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Duke." Igarashi Sake nodded, and then took out countless ledgers from the box brought by the guard. After flipping through them one by one, he began to publish the data.

"The kingdom's finances tax revenue in the past year..."

As Sake reported the figures one by one, Colin felt more and more panicked. As the current minister of finance of the kingdom, he also knew these figures very well, and he felt very normal. Although there was a huge deficit, it was all because of Rhine

Hart's policy reforms and the shortcomings caused by massive construction.

The reason why he was panicking was that Reinhardt would not let Igarashi Sake announce this matter for no reason today. He knew clearly that Igarashi Sake was the chief financial officer of Reinhardt Brewing Factory. He heard that he had

He has also served as the financial officer of a kingdom in the West Sea, so the purpose of letting him come is self-evident.

If he were to be replaced, then with Reinhardt's character, there would be no chance of his own survival. But in the current situation, what could he do?

A group of nobles from the kingdom have been purged, is he still worried? Is he planning to clear out his group of unstable nobles before leaving Beihai?

"Mr. Duke..." Before Qingjiu could finish announcing all the numbers, Colin couldn't help but kneel to the ground, his voice trembling extremely.

"Lord Colin, what do you want to say?" Reinhardt asked softly. After hearing these words, Colin felt deflated and decadent, as if he had been sentenced to death.

.

"Please, Lord Duke, spare my life." After struggling for a long time, Colin finally said these words.

"Spare your life?" Reinhard couldn't help but sneered, "What crime have you committed?"

Colin was slightly stunned, but another minister walked out next to him. It was Denis, the minister of palace affairs promoted by Reinhardt.

He walked forward and bowed to Reinhard: "Your Majesty, Duke, according to the laws of the kingdom, Lord Colin has committed no less than eight crimes."

"Corruption, indiscriminate killing of civilians, collusion with party members, collusion with enemy countries, human trafficking, liaison with pirates, arms smuggling, and theft of military supplies."

Just one of these crimes can make Colin guilty. However, some of the crimes are unfounded, and some crimes are real, so Colin is not unjust. In other words, if all the nobles in the pirate world are included,

If they gather together and randomly shoot dozens of arrows at him, then probably not one of these dozens of arrows will lead to an unjust death.
