Chapter 35: Seychelles Islands Construction Plan

It takes about a month to travel from Slave Bay to the Seychelles, and two to three months if fully loaded, depending on the wind direction and cargo capacity.

"Your Majesty, the Seychelles Central Island is ahead. We will first pass some small islands with an area of ​​only a few hundred square meters.

These islands are densely packed, but they are useless, but we can set up some sentry posts for surveillance."

Jack nodded. He had seen all of this before. After all, the nautical chart was drawn by him and Poseidon.

"Huh?" Jack suddenly made a puzzled sound.

Newgate turned his head and looked in the direction Jack was looking. He saw a strange giant beast about four meters long resting on the coast of a small island. It was Poseidon.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Although this sea lizard is ridiculously large, it has a docile personality and will not attack humans.

It even saved some Unsullied who couldn't swim. It's like the guardian of the sea."

Newgate hurriedly introduced it and said that this sea lizard had saved the Unsullied, and he was worried that Jack would order the hunting of this giant sea lizard.

Newgate believed that this giant sea lizard was the incarnation of Poseidon, a patron saint specially sent by Poseidon to protect Atlantis.

Jack nodded expressionlessly, thinking, do I need you to introduce this thing?

It's just that just now, he was a little surprised to see Poseidon sunbathing on the beach.

After all, Poseidon never basked in the sun before, but preferred to wander in the deep sea.

Seeing that Jack seemed to have no interest in Poseidon, Newgate continued, "Your Majesty, does it look very similar to the flag of Atlantis? I think this is a good thing, which means that the God of the Ocean is watching us in Atlantis. Your title of Sea King is well-deserved!

We can publicize this matter and add myths and legends to your reputation, which will also facilitate your rule."

Jack smiled in his heart, of course, how could it not look like it? I drew it based on how it looked when it was a child.

However, Jack did not point out the true identity of Poseidon. In the future, Godzilla's size will reach 200 meters, which is different from the 200 meters of the giant dragon.

Dragons have wings, necks, and tails, but Godzilla is simply two hundred meters tall. The visual impact is different, so Jack plans to make Godzilla the incarnation of the god of the ocean.

Thirty million years ago, Godzilla, the god of the ocean, fought against Ghidorah, the god of darkness, to save the world. Then, with the addition of some weird earth gods, he was able to completely edit a cultural system on his own.

Thinking of this, Jack couldn't help laughing out loud, and then threw away the messy images in his mind.

Soon, the huge fleet arrived at the dock of the central island of Seychelles.

"The dock is still under construction, but we don't have that many professional craftsmen, so we can only build a prototype for temporary use." Newgate explained.

"It's okay, it doesn't matter. I will take some time to go to Meereen and bring back some technical slaves." Jack signaled Newgate not to worry.

"I can take care of such small matters. You don't have to do everything yourself." Newgate said quickly.

In his opinion, Jack didn't need to do some small things himself, otherwise it would make him look embarrassed and like a waste of time.

Jack patted Newgate on the shoulder and said, "I can't stay in the Seychelles forever, nor can I stay on the Poseidon forever. You will have many tasks to do next, so I will do what I can."

In fact, there is something Jack didn't say, which is that Newgate's ability has gradually failed to keep up with the development pace of Atlantis.

After all, Newgate was a slave before, which is an unchangeable fact, and his knowledge and experience are limited.

The reason they were able to help Jack before was because there were not many people, and Newgate, who was old and experienced, could still handle it.

But with the increase in population and the construction of the central island, Newgate will definitely become increasingly weak.

So next Jack plans to split the position of the King's Hand into two, the King's Left Hand and the King's Right Hand.

This would not only share the power of the Prime Minister, but most importantly, it would give Newgate something to do without making him too tired or ashamed.

After all, Newgate was one of the first old men to follow him, and he had helped him a lot. Kicking him would make his subordinates feel disheartened.

As for the future political system of Atlantis, Jack plans to follow the model of the Seven Kingdoms. In the future, the territories of the nobles will be islands and overseas bases. As for what Atlantis will eventually develop into, that is not something Jack needs to consider now.

However, Jack was not going to delegate all military and political power to the nobles under his command. Instead, he was going to give them only political power but not military power. If he gave them military power, some unexpected problems would inevitably arise.

After getting on the dock, Jack first visited the camp built by Newgate and touched his head. Isn't this just a temporary camp?

Jack thought there was already a rudiment of a village here, but he didn't expect it to be just a temporary camp.

He sighed secretly, his request was a bit too high. After all, it had only been a few months, and it would be really difficult for this group of people to engage in infrastructure construction.

"Newgate, first have some warehouses built to store our harvested wealth, then cut down the trees as much as possible so that everyone can live in their own stone and wood houses."

Newgate stroked his beard and said, "I have arranged for people to cut down trees and collect wood."

Jack shook his head and emphasized, "I mean everyone. No one will attack here anyway. Let everyone go collect stones and wood, and then send people to the Free Trade City to purchase food and various slave craftsmen."

As for Jack himself, he planned to go to Meereen himself, where there were a considerable number of skilled slaves, including carpenters, stonemasons, blacksmiths, etc.

Although there may not be many people with truly superb skills, there are many of them. As the saying goes, three cobblers can make a single Zhuge Liang smell bad.

Hiss—

a dull dragon roar was heard, and Korakxiu was seen flying over, dragging a black primate creature that was a little over one meter long.

Seeing this, Newgate said to Jack, "This is the black leaf monkey we encountered. It is completely black, has a violent temper, and is quite large."

Korakxiu landed slowly, then dragged the black leaf monkey to Jack's feet with excitement, motioning Jack to try it quickly because it was delicious.

Jack narrowed his eyes slightly. He was not very interested in primates, but he still had the monkey dragged away and processed and had a simple taste.

"Do you think this is delicious?" Jack looked at Korakxiu.

Korakxiu tilted his head and said nothing, but his meaning was self-evident, he thought it was really delicious.

If it could talk, it would definitely tell Jack that the meat of the black leaf monkey is delicious and must be tasted!

Patting Korakshu's head, Jack said, "Then I will give you all the black leaf monkeys on the island, eat as much as you want."

Hiss—Korakshuu neighed softly, then took off and flew towards the forest in the distance.

The Seychelles Islands are flat and densely jungled, with a freshwater river running through the entire central island. Next, Jack plans to build a city along the river, called Neptune City.
