Cardan Island is located on the border of the Land of Water, almost 100 kilometers from the main island in the center.
From the main island, the boat takes less than eight hours in most cases.
It seems that it is due to the rain that just happened recently, the wind and the waves in the sea are smaller than normal, and the ship has been sailing for almost ten hours before Akira and the others arrived at Cardan Island. .
At this time, it was almost dusk, the sun was setting in the west, and the entire island was bathed
by the sunset. Only the few fishermen were packing up their tools and preparing to finish their day's work.
"Is this Cardan Island?"
The samurai, including Kitano, took the lead in the landing and lined up in two orderly lines. Vergo loaded the bamboo and the black Kushi sword and got off the boat with Akira.
The latter looked at the deserted port, took a deep breath of the fresh air, and an intriguing smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
As the new ruler of the Yagu family who was entrusted with Cardan Island, they should have received the news in advance.
However, the Hoshino family, the former ruling family of Cardan Island, did not seem to have understood the situation.
"Is it downstairs? It's a childish method..."
Akira smiled and shook her head, not surprised.
As a country with several in the sea, although most of the areas are useless sea areas, the Country of Water can even be said to be the country with the largest territory among the Five Elemental Countries.
But it is precisely because of this that the inconvenience of shipping has resulted in little communication between the islands of the Land of Water, and even the control of the Daimyo over the rulers of various places.
If it weren't for the existence of the Mist Ninja Village, which would have an absolute deterrent effect on the rulers of the major territories, I'm afraid the Water Country would already be in chaos.
It is precisely because of this that since the establishment of the Country of Water, it has been in the midst of large and small civil conflicts almost all year round.
It can be seen from the fact that the Hoshino family dared to offer a bounty to the heads of the Daimyo family members.
"His Royal Highness, the carriage is ready, we must leave for Haijia City."
At that moment, Kitano stepped forward and said respectfully.
Haijia City is the largest city on the island, the seat of the Hoshino family, and the center of power on Cardan Island.
At the same time, it is also the place where Akira took over the government of Kadan Island.
Akira looked at Kitano, who was tilting her head and was about to say something.
Sudden.
[ "Ding! The diameter of the current island is detected to exceed ten kilometers, which meets the construction requirements of the Marine Base, and the side mission is complete!" ]
[ "Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining [Navy Standard Base Building x1] [Navy Standard Light Warship x1] [Navy Standard Naval Battle Unit x1]!" ]
[ "Ding! The Marine Mall mechanism has been opened and the Host will be able to purchase weapon resources by consuming silver taels!" ]
[ "Ding! The Marine reputation mechanism has been activated. The Host will be able to gain reputation by increasing the influence of the Marines, and reputation can be exchanged for the World Order of Recruitment!" ]
[ "Ding! The special Navy building mechanism has been activated and the Host will be able to build various special Navy buildings!" ]
["Ding! Activate the side quest: End the civil unrest on Cardan Island, reward [Paramecia Devil Fruit-Cut the fruit quickly]!" ]
A series of system beeps sounded in Akira's head.
Akira's mouth twisted and he turned to look at the sea in the distance.
The beautiful sunset was shining on the sea, and on the horizon in the distance, a black spot was gradually getting bigger.
"Hey?" Vergo, who had been silent for a while, raised his head.
Kitano and the other samurai followed Akira's gaze, but he didn't care.
After all, for a Water Country surrounded by seas, it is quite normal for ships to appear in the sea.
"His Royal Highness, if he does not go to Haijia City, it will be dark." Kitano hesitated for a moment and remembered quietly.
Akira waved his hand without looking back and kept looking at the sea in the distance.
Kitano and the other samurai could only follow in silence and watch the sea.
Soon, as time passed, the appearance of the distant ship finally appeared in the eyes of Akira and others.
The full-length blue hull, a strong bunker with a black metallic sheen at the bow, and the dense gun muzzles on either side of the hull are even more intimidating. .
Indistinctly, a large number of silhouettes can be seen walking on the deck.
"This... is this?"
Kitano and the other samurai were shocked and looked at the majestic warship in surprise.
And as the warship got closer and closer, the fishermen who had not left in the alley were also attracted by their attention, and they couldn't help but speak a little surprised.
Soon, in everyone's eyes, the warship with a height of tens of meters and a length of nearly 200 meters slowly approached the small harbor.
The anchor was dropped and a ladder was lowered from the ship.
A sailor who was wearing a Navy uniform and holding a musket and a long knife walked neatly and finally stopped.
Finally, a Captain dressed as a marine approached Akira, wearing a 'justice' cloak, a hat with red tassels, and a longsword at his waist.
"Naval Headquarters Colonel, T Bone has seen his Highness!"
T Bone knelt on one knee, holding the longsword in his right hand on the ground, and said loudly.
Wow!
Over time, the system panel that only Akira could see appeared before his eyes.
