Ancient Arsenal

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

The rumbling sound echoed in the underground city that had been restored to light after passing the energy of Enel. In the city that had been uninhabited for hundreds of years, large swaths of smoke were rising, and the movement could be said to be very loud.

The small body was as fast as a phantom, rushing directly towards the unoccupied houses on one side.

"boom!!!"

The walls of the house built with solid stone shattered instantly, and the gravel flew. Under the strong impact, the originally solid stone now looked like it was made of foam.

The small figure carried an astonishing power that was completely inconsistent with its size. It easily demolished a house to pieces, leaving no trace of the previous scene.

Around here, there are many short figures destroying everywhere, showing no pity for this city that has hundreds of years of history and can be called a cultural relic site.

"Uhahahahaha!"

Vlad smiled, looking very excited, "This kind of power is quite useful!"

These little figures who are destroying anything. Of course, they can only be the robot legions that the Fire Dragon Pirates have conquered before. These robots resurrected by Enel's power have naturally taken by Enel away. As the person with the highest authority, it was natural that these robots, which were not very intelligent, would be treated as the private property of the Fire Dragon Pirates by Vlad.

Under the current circumstances, the addition of these robots is undoubtedly a help in times of need. Although the Fire Dragon Pirates are now the Shichibukai Pirates, they only have five people in total, even if they include the Moria Pirates. The two affiliated pirate groups like the Hacksaw Pirates in the New World are really small in number. Compared with those large pirate groups that often have thousands of people, they are really a bit cold.

So, Vlad is very happy now. It turns out that these robots can be used as combat forces, or in other words, they are much easier to use than the vanguard pirates of ordinary pirate groups!

"This power is very good!"

Vlad looked at the gradually collapsing houses nearby, and felt very satisfied. The destructive power of these robots was still considerable, and their power was far more powerful than that of the elite soldiers of the Navy. If calculated using the force value of the Navy, The power value of a robot can reach about 100. This is already the combat power of a million-level pirate, and it is a power that ordinary people cannot resist.

Although fighting against strong men has no effect at all, Vlad did not expect to let these guys compete with real masters. After all, the number of these robots here is enough to consume each other with the enemy's miscellaneous soldiers. Vlad is already very satisfied. The strength of these robots has far exceeded their positioning! Even the strongest members of the Whitebeard Pirates are definitely not at this level.

Moreover, the advantage of these robots is that they are lifeless, which means that there is no consumption problem. After all, their energy source is Enel's lightning. 

"It's easy to use!"

Vlad watched those robots turn the surrounding houses into ruins under Enel's triumphant command. He rubbed his chin and said with some displeasure, "But it seems to be a one-time product! It's gone after you use it!"

Yes, these robots were made by people from this underground civilization that existed under the moon hundreds of years ago. Vlad did not have the technology to replenish the robots after they were damaged, which was very annoying. It is rare to find such high-quality soldiers.

"clatter!"

"Captain, I'm back!"

There was a soft sound of landing. The chef who had been sent out by Vlad to explore the city landed gently in front of Vlad. The man with a smile on his face said so.

"How about it?"

Vlad asked with great interest, "Anything gained?"

"It is conceivable that this ancient civilization did not decline!"

The chef said, "There are basically no traces of corpses in the city. I did find a cemetery, but it looks like it has a lot of history! It can be seen that the ancient people who lived here did not end here!"

"They have all gone to other places!"

The chef said, "The evidence is that there is basically nothing left in the city except for some daily necessities. There is nothing valuable can be found at all!"

"Is that so?"

Vlad said unhappily, "Isn't this very troublesome?"

"But it wouldn't be right to say that nothing was found!"

The chef laughed.

"Huh?"

Vlad raised his eyebrows and said, "Chef, when did you learn to show off your skills? This is not a good habit!"

"Haha! This is all learned from the captain!"

The chef smiled like this. Vlad always liked to keep things secret. He always didn't like to say anything directly and always liked to wait until the end to speak. As a senior crew member on the ship, the chef felt that it was important to learn from the captain.

"Okay, then, chef,"

Vlad pinched the bridge of his nose and said helplessly, "What did you find?"

"It doesn't seem that the time for people in this city to leave this city is very urgent. All the aftermath work has been done in an orderly manner. Basically, there is nothing particularly valuable left!"

The chef said, "But the only exception is,"

"It seems that while these robots served as guards in ancient times, they were also used as labor force by the people in this ancient city!"

"oh?"

Vlad gestured to the chef to continue, "What then?"

"And for these ancient people, it seemed silly to leave convenient robots and not use them, but to do the work themselves!"

"This also leads to,"

The chef finally said, "Until I finally left this city, the city's arsenal, or robot manufacturing factory, was still not destroyed, and it was still producing robot soldiers!"

"Yeah?"

Vlad's eyes gradually brightened, "Does the arsenal still exist?"

"That's what it looks like!"

The chef said so.

"Uhahahaha! This is great!"

Vlad smiled, "Then what are you waiting for? Take me to see it! This arsenal is very important to our Fire Dragon Pirates!"

"Then please come this way! Mr. Captain!"

The chef chuckled and led the way.

"Hey, God, do you want to come together?"

Vlad said to Enel, who was having fun ordering robots to destroy the city, "Go and see the factory where the robots are made!"

"Yeahaha!"

Enel had a great time, waved his hand towards Vlad, indicating that he did not want to go.

Vlad shook his head and followed the chef without paying attention.

He didn't walk for long, and soon a building that was obviously different from the surrounding residential buildings stood in front of Vlad. It occupied a very wide area, and the top was directly connected to the dome. Several thick stone pillars stood at the huge door. Just looking at it gives me a quaint feeling.

"Is this right here?"

"interesting!"

Vlad didn't stop and walked into the factory without stopping. It was very empty. There was nothing superfluous in the factory.

The moment he walked into this arsenal, Vlad suddenly felt out of touch with the times. It was obvious that most of the customs still remained in the ancient world, but now he saw an extremely modern scene.

There was almost no barrier at all. As soon as Vlad came in, he saw what he wanted to see most, the humming machinery in operation.

That's a production line!

In a production line that covers a large area, parts are manufactured one by one on different machines, and then they are gathered together under the conveyor belt and transported towards another machine.

There, these parts come together, and the robots are created one by one!

But that's it. There is nothing extra left. There is not even any production materials left. The entire production line will stop running soon.

But that's enough!
