Chapter 741: Going to the North Sea Island Turtle Trade
The Black Emperor Pirates' pirate ship is practical, not too luxurious, and is large enough to accommodate five or six hundred pirates.
After all, no matter how much Teach and Lubbock earn in the Sky Arena, their daily expenses are still not low.
Especially when it comes to food.
Besides, the cost of building ships on Put Island, especially top-level pirate ships, is not low.
Although there is still some money left, it is enough to cover expenses for a period of time.
"Lubbock, what are we going to do next?"
Leaving the port of Put Island, Teach looked at Lubbock and asked.
Before, I was concentrating on the Dark-Dark Fruit, so I didn't pay attention to these things.
But he believes Lubbock has it planned.
Even the pirate ship was handled by Lubbock according to his preferences and the requests of the crew.
It is obvious that Teach is very satisfied with the "Pieta".
This isn't a difficult thing, is it?
Over the years, more than ten thousand pirate ships have been built on Put Island.
At least hundreds of construction templates have been designed based on pirate ships of various sizes and the number of people in pirate groups.
You can select a template you like and modify it within a certain range according to your special requirements.
Of course, you can also design it completely according to your own preferences.
There are more than sixty members on board.
They all turned their eyes to Lubbock.
Lubbock looked calm. As the second captain, he knew his position on the ship.
As a combatant and chief of staff.
He was aware of his own combat capability. Maybe his strength was good, but in the future, there would definitely be many crew members who were stronger than him.
Even his younger brother, Harolant, has a higher combat power limit than him.
The Rebound Fruit is an extremely powerful parahuman devil fruit.
Lubbock looked at the navigator on the side.
The navigator nodded, took out a nautical chart and spread it on the ground.
"Teach, our first destination is the Four Seas. To find a suitable companion, there are two routes. One is to follow this route to Fishman Island, pass Fishman Island to the first half of the Grand Route, and then go to the Four Seas."
"As for the other route, we will head north, through the island turtle and the pirate ship that will take us through the doldrums and directly reach the North Sea."
Lubbock drew two lines on the chart.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the route through the calm zone is shorter.
Of course, it depends on the choice of Captain Teach.
"You should want to take the Calm Road, Lubbock."
Tikki asked with a smile, he had already made his choice.
"That's right." Lubbock nodded.
"It's faster to go through the Calm Belt, and we can avoid some unnecessary risks. When we plan to leave the Four Seas, we should be strong enough to not be afraid of the threat from the navy. By then, we can return to the New World through the original path and the Great Route."
"Then it's decided."
"Let's go, North Sea!"
After selecting the target, the Pietà sailed north amid the cheers of the crew.
The news that one can travel to the North Sea via the island turtle is actually no secret in the New World.
The main function of island turtles is to transport goods, and humans are also one of the goods.
In order to ease the pressure on various ports in the Kingdom of Chronos, an island in the north of the Kingdom of Chronos was specially transformed into a large port island for the purpose of transporting various materials.
Goods from all over the New World were brought to Island Turtle from here.
Load into container.
When the tank is full, the island turtle will set off, heading north, through the doldrums to the North Sea.
Head south to the West Sea.
Or go west, through the huge hole beneath the red earth continent to the first half of the great route.
Then head north or south to the East China Sea and the South China Sea respectively.
On an island like this, tens of thousands of people work in shifts day and night every day.
time is money.
Even with the use of container and crane technology, huge human resources are still required.
There’s more to it than just packing the goods into the container; there’s just so much stuff to pack.
The island turtles are too big.
The back of the island turtle alone is divided into hundreds of areas.
Each area has a variety of different goods.
Each force delivers the goods to the island and registers them in the database.
Plan each area well.
This is a huge project and no mistakes can be made.
After all, the Kingdom of Chronos makes money from transportation fees, and needs to ensure that the goods are not lost during this period.
There is also an island in each sea area.
That’s where Island Turtle ends.
There, various forces and merchants need to transport the island turtles to the port island and take the goods away.
It was later looted by pirates or lost, and has nothing to do with the Kingdom of Chronos.
These goods will be delivered to various places in various sea areas.
Of course, most people would choose the deep-sea shipping company of "Shipping King" Umit to transport goods.
In the industry, Umit is extremely trustworthy.
It has truly become the leading overlord in global shipping.
He is the only one who has this ability.
Therefore, the interests of Umit and the Kingdom of Chronos are the same.
In order to enhance the risk resistance of deep-sea shipping companies, in addition to the power that Umit itself possesses.
He is also one of the choices for many Royal Military Academy graduates. He does not need to join the army and can travel around the world.
Likewise, there is another port island in each sea area.
If the previous port island was the "terminal island" from the New World to the four seas.
Then the other island is the "starting island" from all over the world to the new world.
As the name suggests, it is to transport goods from this sea area to the New World.
Therefore, every sea area in the four seas has a "end island" and a "starting island".
After an island turtle has unloaded all the cargo and left the destination island, it will go to the starting island to continue working and return to the new world after loading the cargo.
Such a cycle takes four months.
Loading, unloading, loading, unloading.
An island tortoise works two cycles a year and then rests for four months.
In the same sea area, the three-headed island turtles took turns to attack, and the kingdom had already calculated the time.
This is equivalent to the new world and each sea area going through six cycles.
You can imagine how efficient trade would be.
And this is just one sea area, there are four more such sea areas.
In the New World, there are islands corresponding to the end and starting points of the four seas.
There are eight such port islands around the Kingdom of Chronos.
There are eight port islands corresponding to four sea areas.
Under the trade system of the Kingdom of Chronos, there is the New World and the Four Seas.
The first half of the great voyage seemed to have been abandoned.
However, the reality is not so. The cargo in the first half of the Grand Route, which connects the Four Seas and the New World, is actually not needed.
There are also many goods shipped from the East China Sea to the South China Sea.
If you also want to transport it via island turtle, that is also possible.
It is first sent from the East China Sea to the New World, and then transferred to the port island connecting to the South China Sea, which is equivalent to an extra stop.
Huge quantities of goods, though it takes longer.
However, the island turtles of the Kingdom of Chronos have an unparalleled advantage, which is safety.
