As time passed, the seemingly peaceful island of Sasaria was solemn. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Every soldier in the NEO Navy understands the hard battle they will have to face next.

During this time, the NEO Navy did not have the idea of going to sea to exterminate the pirates, but was wholeheartedly preparing for a decisive battle with the Whitebeard Pirates.

According to the intelligence, the fleet of the Whitebeard Pirates is already approaching the island of Sasaria, so Shunan has also been busy around the island.

Because the island of Sasaria is suitable for landing, there are three other places besides the harbor.

Shunan didn't know if the Whitebeard Pirates would attack from the port location in one fell swoop, or if they would scatter and land around the island.

However, this did not prevent Shunan from making some preparations in advance at the other three landing sites.

And those scientists are not idle, they have already cooperated with Shunan to build the giant cannon he envisioned.

However, Xiunan didn't dare to put this giant cannon on the battlefield without testing, because Xiunan didn't want this giant cannon to explode when it was fired.

So today, Xiunan took people to the beach to prepare for a test launch.

The NEO Navy is in a weak position compared to the Whitebeard Pirates, and even with the addition of pacifists, it cannot be said that the Whitebeard Pirates can win safely.

So this test is important for the NEO Navy.

"What a beautiful child~~" Holder said as he looked at the rifling inside the barrel.

The cannons in the One Piece world are actually not bad, and the Navy also has experience in developing large-caliber naval guns.

But the direction of their research is simply to increase the caliber and study more destructive explosives.

So much so that although the destructive power of those naval guns is powerful, the speed and accuracy cannot be improved.

The idea offered by Shunan gave Holder another direction of development.

Through the large number of arcs in the barrel, the characteristic shells continue to rotate and maintain stability when fired.

And the slender barrel also gives the shell a higher range.

But now these are still theoretical things, and today is its first test launch.

Even Holder didn't care if the test was successful, because in his calculations such a solution was completely feasible.

Even if it fails, something else is wrong.

After watching the two NEO Navy soldiers struggle to stuff a one-man thick cannonball into the barrel, load the propellant and close the lock, Xiunan hurriedly kept everyone away from the giant cannon.

For technical reasons, they could only build simple buffers, so they had to rely on the strength of the cannon itself to withstand most of the terrifying recoil.

When everyone had evacuated, the artillery was fired.

Rumble!!!!

Even though everyone was prepared, they were taken aback by the deafening sound.

If they hadn't been far enough away, they would have been deaf in both ears from the loud noise.

When the smoke cleared, Shunan was pleasantly surprised to find that the giant cannon was still intact.

After hurriedly taking Holder up, Shunan began to observe every corner of the cannon, wanting to know if there was any damage.

There is good news and bad news, these are the words given by Holder.

The good news is that the gun has the desired effect, although it is a little off the target of the shot, but it is good to be able to achieve such an effect at such a distance.

The bad news is that the cannon is no longer able to turn, and most of the parts on the turret have been shattered.

There was no problem with the barrel of the gun, thanks to the steel, which was several times thicker than the caliber, it withstood it.

The launch can still be launched, but it can only be fired in one direction, and it is estimated that it will fall apart after a few more rounds.

After hearing Holder's summary, Shunan had a headache, such words could not meet the needs of actual combat at all.

After using his ability to repair the parts, Shunan was ready to bring the cannon to its place.

Even if you can only fire a few shells, it's not bad, but it might be able to cause unexpected results.

Holder is also gone, and he needs to go back and redesign the buffer.

However, before leaving, he gave Shunan a good idea, anyway, you can't turn around if you shoot a cannon, you might as well completely integrate the barrel and the gun mount, so that you can still fire shells all the time.

Just wait until he's got the buffer problem solved.

This was a bad idea, because if it did, the cannon would not be able to aim at the enemy unless Shunan was present.

If Shunan is present, he can use his ability to target the enemy, and once Shunan leaves, then the cannon will be useless.

But Holder's words were not said casually, and after thinking about it for a while, he understood what Holder wanted to express.

Wouldn't it be enough for Shunan to control this huge cannon before the enemy landed? After the enemy landed, the cannon would not play much role.

However, this will not be possible to arrange a few more such giant cannons according to Xiunan's idea, and can only install another barrel on this cannon body.

......

"Lord Shunan is distressed~"

After reading Shunan's memory, Loria lay on Shunan's body and didn't get up, and gently stroked Shunan's brow with her fingers and spoke.

"If it's because I'm worried about the enemy, I'm sure Shunan-sama will win. Loria comforted Shunan while taking the opportunity to get his hands on it.

"I wonder if Dr. Holder can solve that problem before the enemy arrives. Shunan didn't notice Loria's movements, and said distressedly.

"It turns out that this is what Lord Shunan cares about!I know~" After getting Shunan's answer, Loria clapped her palms and replied happily.

"I've seen such a steel monster in my memory! It's the first time I've seen a ship made of steel that can float on the water. ”

But the first thing Xiunan cared about was: "How long ago can you see the memories?" ”

Even he couldn't remember when he had visited the battleship, but Loria did.

"Don't worry about that!" Loria coquettishly changed the subject, and continued, "I don't know how those things work, but I do know how. ”

"Do you mean you want to go to the research base?" asked Shunan suspiciously, it was the first time he had seen Loria have the idea of going out.

"I also want to have a place where I can help Shunan-sama. Loria hugged Shunan tightly, and then continued, "In this way, Lord Shunan will be able to spend more time with me. ”

After hearing Loria's words, Shunan was moved to tears, but he didn't see the fox-like sly smile that Loria showed when she buried her face in his chest.

That's it, only Loria and I are the most important person in Xiunan!
