From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

To put it simply, for the past few years, the Navy Headquarters has been reaping the huge profits from the Amway Group while simultaneously begging the Five Elders for money and military spending. …

The resources within the Calm Belt, the shipbuilding industry and military processes built by Smoker in the New World have been able to reduce the navy's military expenditure to a great extent. Now there is no need to buy them, we can build them ourselves.

From exporting raw materials to processing them into finished products, whether it is arms or warships, we can make them all. After making them, we can pretend to sell them to the navy and make them look good for Mary Joa.

How much money can this save?

It’s a huge sea.

The navy's development arrangement of "increasing revenue and reducing expenditure" was of course planned by Diarmait. Now, according to this trend, even without taking Mary Geoise's military funds, the navy can maintain normal expenses of about 70%.

But it is not enough, it is definitely not enough, not to mention that it is only 70%, the key is that this is under the 'normal state'. Once the war starts, it will be a complete waste of money.

That is why Marshal Zhan Guo repeatedly warned Diarmait not to be impulsive.

He was just worried that Diarmait would become arrogant, think he could act alone, and start causing trouble.

In Marshal Zhan Guo's opinion, it would take him at least five years to truly manage the navy independently.

Besides, I can continue to cheat money from Mary Geoise for the past five years. It would be a waste if I didn't cheat...

In addition, he also received the "Golden City Plan" from Smoker. According to Marshal Zhan Guo's steady character, he felt that it would be safest to build the Golden City first and then reveal his plan.

Diarmait had no objection to this, and he really had no intention of becoming arrogant.

It is reasonable for Dorag to suspect that Diarmuid is secretly helping the navy to take bribes.

But there was no need for Diarmait to tell him that I had already prepared everything and your contribution wouldn't be a problem.

After thinking about it, Diarmait sighed and said, "Yes, making money is a troublesome thing."

"Well, so I have a big project." Dorag said with some confidence in his tone.

"How big?" Diarmait pondered for a moment.

Judging from Dorag's status as the leader, the big project he mentioned must be worth at least 10 trillion berries, right?

Just as Diarmait was thinking about this, Dorag said confidently, "It must be at least three or two trillion, right?"

Diarmait???

That's it?

Of course, the total value of the entire Goa Kingdom cannot be just three or two trillion berries, but the vast majority of them are fixed assets. Even if Dorag went crazy, he would not be able to get rid of all of them. He did not contact Diarmait these days because he was investigating the trade level of the Goa Kingdom.

The final conclusion is that there should be a market worth three to five trillion Baileys. As long as it can be won, there will be a steady stream of Baileys income.

Diarmuid, the wealthy man, naturally didn't care about a mere three or five trillion berries. Smoker, as a public relations guy, could give Mary Geoise 700 billion berries and persuade her to let the navy support him in his cause.

Not to mention the channels and Bailey that Diarmuid controls.

But Dorag is just a peasant now, and three or five trillion is already a huge number.

After hearing Diarmait's silence for a long time, Dorag said in a deep voice, "Don't think this is a small thing. Perhaps you are in charge of military expenditures now, and you are dazzled by the navy's astronomical floating military expenditures..."

"No, I'm just a little surprised that you can find such a 'big' business." Diarmuid was silent for a moment, then said with a smile.

Dorag thought Diarmuid was tempted, so he immediately said, "How is it? It's big enough, right? It's not inferior to the one you took me on in Mary Geoise. That time it was just a grab, but this time it's really stable. As long as the two of us join forces, I'll take 70% and you'll take 30%. It won't take long to swallow it all. What do you think? Are you interested?"

"No, thank you." Diarmuid replied and then hung up the Den Den Mushi.

I earn hundreds of thousands of berries per second, so why should I do these dangerous things with you, Dorag, for the sake of three or two trillion berries? The Mary Geoise arson case 2.9 was purely an accident, okay?

"Are you so ruthless?" Gion said with a smile as he sat opposite Diarmait.

Tina and Smoker both laughed. As insiders, they naturally knew that Diarmait was very confident and really looked down on Drago's business.

But before Diarmait could say anything, the Den Den Mushi rang again.

"What are you doing? I told you I'm not interested. I'm busy fighting!" Diarmait said as he lit a cigar.

"Stop hanging up on me, Den Den Mushi! I'm a worthy boss, alright?" Dorag complained. Without waiting for Diarmait to speak, as if afraid he'd hang up, he quickly said, "There's something bigger. This is just the beginning."

"What's bigger?" Diarmait frowned slightly.

He thought Dorag was planning to drag him into a robbery or something, but it seems... not?

Or is he planning to commit crimes again?

"Are you eyeing the gold in the sky?" Diarmait asked after a moment's hesitation.

"Hmm?" Dorag was also stunned for a moment, then fell silent.

Yes, why can’t I grab the gold from the sky?

Alas, no, no, it’s not appropriate at this stage, at least not at this stage.

Dorag first calmed his thoughts, then said: "No, I'm doing serious business." "What kind of business?" Diarmuid asked again.

Dorag pondered for a moment, then said, "The country..."

Chapter 299 Diarmuid: He was the one who came to ask me to cheat him!

Dorag also knew that if the matter was not explained clearly, Diarmuid would not help without reason, and if there was not enough benefit, he would not be able to convince him either.

Therefore, for the next ten minutes or so, Dorag kept telling about his thoughts and plans during this period, intending to get Diarmuid involved and do something together with him.

Little did he know that Diarmait was completely confused by his talk.

Haven't you been taking the civilian route, the grassroots route, and rebelling from the bottom up from the beginning to the end?

How did it become like this for no apparent reason?

As for Otluk Sabo, Diarmuid was even more surprised.

In the original story, Sabo was shot by a Celestial Dragon and lost his memory. By chance, he joined Dragon's army.

But now, Diarmait has already fooled Ace and Luffy, and he keeps shouting that he wants to be the admiral of the navy or the king of the navy.

There is no need to worry about Saab.

Diarmuid didn't really care too much about Sabo. After all, he had a special status and it was not convenient for him to do anything he wanted.

But in the end, he still followed Dorag.

And this time he was more ferocious, directly killing a Tianlong as a token of his allegiance...

As expected, these guys who will become great in the future have been extraordinary since childhood.

But this is nothing, at most we are barely back on track.

And Dorag's subsequent actions shocked Diarmuid.

He actually planned to support the Outluk family to become the royal family of the Goa Kingdom, and through the death of Sabo and the Celestial Dragons, secretly control the Outluk family and turn the Goa Kingdom into a secret base for their group in the East China Sea?

At the same time, taking advantage of the legitimate membership status of the Kingdom of Goa, they began to go public through shell companies and do some businesses that they were originally unable to do but still had some ways to do, using this method to provide blood transfusions to the organization.

It must be said that Diarmuid was impressed by Dorag's flexible thinking.

He seized the opportunity presented by Saab, broadened his horizons, and began pursuing a two-pronged approach. …

Obviously, this was all the result of the subtle influence of Diarmuid, the butterfly, over the years, and it was just at this moment that the storm broke out.

If Dragon really gets a taste of success in the Goa Kingdom and finds a mature operating model, maybe this guy will really soar to the sky! ?

Diarmait was secretly shocked. Sure enough, this bastard was not so easy to deal with.

But then I thought, is it necessary to deal with it? Is it necessary to disrupt Dorag's plan?

It seems not. During the period when the Navy could not do without Mary Geoise, they were naturally a dual-in-one and it was impossible for them to allow Dragon to turn over.

Because Mary Geoise collapsed, the navy would also be greatly affected. Even after Dragon took over Mary Geoise's legacy, he might "acquire" the penniless navy in one go and become the new boss of the navy.

This was of course unacceptable to Diarmait, so before this, Diarmait and the navy only cooperated with Dragon in secret, but they would never help Dragon on key matters.

But now?

Now it seems that the serfs who don't need to worry about whether Dorag can turn things around no longer need to sing.

Because no matter how fast he is, he can't turn things around within five years. After five years, whether people like Mary Geoise and the Five Elders are dead or alive, it will have nothing to do with their navy.

Because the navy no longer needs to rely on them.

No matter how capable Dorag is, all he can do is form a new international alliance. What else can he do?

The power of the navy, the largest military organization in the entire world, is still the Navy Headquarters, and the Navy Headquarters is self-managed and does not need external investment. This will be the real highest power at that time!

From this perspective, there is no longer any fundamental opposition between Drago and the Naval Headquarters, and they can now cooperate more deeply.

Suddenly, Diarmait thought of Marshal Cyborg and Marshal Sengoku. The cooperation between the Navy and Dragon had always been arranged by these two people. Diarmait didn't know much about it, and he had no interest in asking more.

Most of his cooperation with Dorag was this kind of private "sharing of spoils".

For example, this time, the reason why Dorag contacted him was nothing more than wanting to use his identity as a navy admiral to cover up the actions of the Kingdom of Goa. Secondly, he wanted to use Diarmait's connections to smooth things over with Queen Stusi and see if he could directly connect the Kingdom of Goa to the sales channels of the Amway Group through the Queen. Once this was done, Dorag only needed to arrange for someone to fully produce goods in the Kingdom of Goa and then sell them to the Amway Group, making money without doing anything.

So, what I just thought of now, is it that Marshal Steel Bone and Marshal Warring States have already thought of it and arranged it in secret?

Probably.

In Diarmait's own words, at that point in time, when the navy really had the confidence to say no and turn the table, he would not care about face or not, and would definitely turn hostile directly.

But Marshal Zhan Guo and Commander Gang Gu tend to be more cautious and mature. ...or rather, cunning.

It is very likely that Dorag is the knife they are about to hold in their hands.

What was it for? To help the Navy stab Mary Geoise!

After all, the Navy Headquarters and Mary Geoise have had an integrated relationship for more than 800 years. Once they gained power, they kicked out their old employer. If this got out, it would indeed have some impact on the reputation of the Navy.

But what if the old boss was stabbed to death by Dorag?

Wouldn’t that complete the Navy’s reputation?

"Damn, it's so dirty!" Diarmait exclaimed.

Compared with them, I am still too pure!

"What's dirty?" Dorag was stunned for a moment.

"I'm not talking about you. I just thought about some things and figured it out. I'm not the only smart person in this world." Diarmait said softly, with some emotion in his tone.

"Are you calling me smart?" Dorag laughed.

"You are indeed smart." Diarmait said seriously.

This is not a mockery. Diarmait has always believed that Dorag is very capable, and he also thinks he is not bad, but now think about it, in some things, he really can't compare with guys like Sengoku and Cyborg, who are smart and experienced.
