Chapter 679: Brain Not Enough!
This 'Affiliation Talks' held in the Imperial Arms World.
Undoubtedly received high attention from Royalty, Nobility, and Political Leaders from all walks of life.
In comparison, the citizens' interest wasn't very high; those who liked watching the excitement followed along, while those who didn't went about their own business.
Especially the Royalty and Nobles from the Affiliated Countries on the Sea Star Mainland that held World Conference Seats.
Their mood was quite anxious now, with every face showing deep worry and nervousness.
Because no one knew which country the World Government would decide to remove from its World Conference Seat.
And even if it wasn't their turn this time, what about the next time an Affiliated Country from an Otherworld gained a seat?
Clearly, as long as the World Government's conquest Footwork of the Otherworlds didn't stop, this kind of thing would definitely happen again and again.
So what to do?
This was a question facing all Affiliated Countries with seats on the Sea Star Mainland!
However, there were also some Kingdoms that didn't need to worry about losing their seats for the time being, such as Alabasta.
After all, they were a Great Nation, and their Ancestors were one of the twenty Kings who founded the World Government. As long as there were no Major Conflicts, the World Government would certainly still give them some face.
Then there were the Drum Kingdom, Dressrosa Kingdom, and Fish-Man Island.
One was a 'Medical Development Cooperation Nation' of the World Government, and another was a 'Plant Cultivation Technology Research Nation' of the World Government.
The last one, needless to say, was not only a Troop Source Kingdom for the Navy Fishman Unit but also had Queen Otohime, who was comparable to a Strategic Weapon on a Mental Level.
Furthermore, in the Future, there would be Princess Shirahoshi, the Poseidon, who was suspected to be favored by the Mother of Nature, the Great Sea.
Her Value was so immense that she could sit firmly on her World Conference Seat.
Besides these.
There were two other Kingdoms that didn't need to worry about losing their seats: the Totto Land Kingdom and the Whitebeard Kingdom, which had just Obtained seats.
The nature of these two Kingdoms was similar.
Their Value lay mainly in the Kings themselves, and secondly, in providing a large number of Mid-to-High Tier Combat Talent to the World Government.
Basically, as long as 'Big Mom' Charlotte Linlin and 'Whitebeard' Edward Newgate were still alive and continued to serve the World Government, their World Conference Seats could be said to be as stable as Mount Tai.
Of course.
If something unexpected happened to them in Future battles, that wouldn't necessarily be the case, so compared to the previous four Kingdoms, there was still a certain Risk.
For the current World Government.
The main factor in considering whether a country could have a seat was the magnitude of its Value to the World Government.
So, how the Affiliated Countries on the Sea Star Mainland could keep their seats, and how those without seats could strive for them, was self-evident.
Increase Self-Worth!
Cultivating Experts, Officials, Scientists, and other important Talent, or discovering Specialty Resources or Unique Technology, could all be considered good methods.
However, the Affiliated Countries on the Sea Star Mainland currently hadn't realized these Key Points.
The Affiliation Talks were still ongoing.
After the representatives of The Empire, Shen He, and Alchemy submitted the Joint Organization Agreement Contract, Vice Chairman Gabriel, Foreign Minister Molotov, and Justice Minister Rutledge conducted a verification.
Once confirmed, the Agreement Contract would be archived in the World Government's Archive and take effect immediately.
Next, the representatives of these three Great Nations, namely the Emperor, Shinwa Emperor, and the 47th Alkemi King, would be given Time to express their respective views in turn.
After they finished speaking, the World Government would issue its Requirements and Conditions, followed by various Meetings and negotiations, and finally enter the stage of signing the Membership Contract.
The entire process was actually very dry and boring.
Even Im found it uninteresting. Just then, Esdeath sent a Video Call request, so he simply turned off the Virtual Screen.
Anyway, the final Result would either appear in a written Document or the Five Elders would come to Report in person.
"How is it?"
Im asked softly, looking at the screen showing the heroic and incomparably beautiful Esdeath.
"Lord Imu, I regret to report that I did not sense the Natural Energy Hong Lian spoke of in the Polar Region of this Giant World."
On the Screen Feed, Esdeath stroked the Thousand Year Dragon with green Influence while reporting her Situation to Im.
"So, the next step is to go to the Polar Region of my World to try. We have now arrived above the Canberra Continent (Australia)."
"Good. I hope you have a harvest in the Imperial Arms World and simultaneously draw back the Prelude for Natural Energy Cultivation for the World Government."
Im casually blessed her.
"By the way, when you return, The Empire should have already affiliated with the World Government. At that Time, make a trip to the Imperial Capital and bring Akame and Kurome, as well as the Clansmen you selected, back with you."
He had previously promised to make these people her Royal Guard.
"Understood!"
Esdeath nodded lightly.
Only the Smile that curved at the Corner of her Mouth was so enchanting and ethereal, like a Snow Lotus blooming alone on the Snowy Mountain Peak.
After finishing their conversation, Im proactively ended the call.
After all, neither of them had the Personality that enjoyed talking about love. They were both very clear about the nature of their relationship.
Rather than saying they were lovers or a couple, it was more like the state of an Emperor and his Consort.
Each took what they needed.
For the following Time, Im instructed Stussy to read the File Reports sent by the Five Elders to him. Compared to reading them one by one himself, this method was more comfortable.
As for the possibility of being misled by Stussy, this didn't exist for Im, who could hear her Inner Voice at any Time.
"This is a Report from the Political Affairs Department. Under the leadership of Dr. Boyle on Fish-Man Island, a Large Gas Storage has been successfully constructed in Water Seven, providing the entire Island with a Double-Layer Giant Bubble strong enough to withstand the Impact of Aqua Laguna."
"The Report states that the Original Copy problem of the Yarukiman Mangrove's growth requiring three years was solved with the help of Vice Admiral Aramaki from the Army Headquarters and his Mori Mori no Mi Ability."
"This allowed them to proceed directly with the Air Reservoir Construction Project, completing it smoothly in less than two years."
Stussy, dressed in a professional Suit dress with Black Threads suspender stockings, softly narrated the Content of the Document.
"Green Bull, huh..."
Im thought to himself upon hearing this.
Regarding Aramaki's Mori Mori no Mi Ability, he had previously felt that instead of putting it to use in Military Combat, it would be better to send him to the Kabaneri World to be responsible for Agriculture and Forestry.
Occasionally, he could be called back to improve the Environment of certain islands with harsh conditions on the Sea Star Mainland, such as Desert Nations like Alabasta.
However, Aramaki clearly wanted to serve in the Military.
But he could be made the Military representative to guard the Kabaneri World, and while there, he could help improve the Speed of Agriculture and Forestry Development. If there was a battle, he could just be transferred over...
Thinking this, Im immediately instructed Stussy with his Decision.
The latter quickly took out a Small Notebook and wrote it down, then stated the Content of the second Report.
"This is a Report from the Proclamation Government Institute. Dean Vegapunk of the Academy of Science has applied to Obtain the Paramecia Brain-Brain Fruit from the Holy Land Treasury, citing that his Knowledge Accumulation Speed is too fast, and his current Brain is no longer enough..."
