Novel Star Chapter 400 Battle with Kaido
Chapter 400 Battle with Kaido
"Kaido, if you want pure gold, you can exchange it for gold. One thousand tons of gold can be exchanged for one gram of pure gold."
After careful consideration, Wang Hai contacted Kaido through the phone bug and said straight to the point.
In front of him, the phone bug simulated Kaido's ferocious face like a minotaur. Most people would be frightened to cry if they saw it.
Wang Hai looked at Kaido calmly. After hearing the conditions he proposed, Kaido's face became even more distorted.
The next second, the call was suddenly interrupted, and the phone bug in front of him couldn't help but tremble, as if it had received an electric shock.
Wang Hai smiled softly, and it was not difficult to guess what happened.
It seems that after hearing his conditions, Kaido got too excited, and the murderous aura he exuded directly knocked the phone bug unconscious.
In fact, Kaido's phone bug has probably exploded.
Although Kaido has a certain amount of authority, he is also prone to anger.
Wang Hai was not in a hurry, and continued to read the book in his hand while waiting for Kaido to call again.
One thousand tons of gold for one gram of pure gold.
There is no doubt that the lion opens its mouth.
Although the World Government's Baileys no longer work in the New World, the conversion between the currency of the Peace Island Kingdom and Baileys is almost one to one.
As for the current market price of a ton of gold, the price of gold has appreciated a lot due to the large purchases made by the Heping Island Kingdom over the years.
Nowadays, one ton has almost grown from nearly [-] million beli or peace coins to more than [-] million.
This one thousand tons of gold is equivalent to 3000 billion beli.
The strongest Whitebeard in the world today has a bounty of less than 100 billion.
More than 80.00% of the kingdoms in this sea cannot afford so much wealth.
However, it can only be exchanged for a mere gram of pure gold.
Even if pure gold can make people live forever, most people, probably except for the Celestial Dragons, will think that such a price is not outrageous.
Even Wang Hai himself knew it was outrageous.
However, he is not worried about Kaido giving up on the deal.
Pure gold can be called a priceless treasure. As long as there is a price, it can be discussed.
After all, money is not the first priority for pirate emperors like Kaido and Big Mom.
In comparison, strength and longevity are more important.
Moreover, 3000 billion sounds like a lot, but both of them are also rich people.
Once upon a time, the two of them each controlled a kingdom, namely Totland and Wano.
In addition, as the pirate emperor, they have strong dominance in the new world, and money is really nothing to them.
Let alone 3000 billion, even three trillion can be taken out with gritted teeth.
Although the two have now merged and completely occupied the country of Wano, their wealth has not declined because of the reduction in territory.
On the contrary, after completely occupying the country of Wano, the wealth further increased.
As one of the powerful and ancient kingdoms, Wano Country has the monopoly technology of processing seastones, and its accumulated wealth cannot be underestimated.
What's more, according to intelligence, the Jinjin Fruit, which Wang Hai was always very interested in, has fallen into Kaido's hands.
In the original plot, this fruit was first in Dover's hands, and was later obtained by Tezolo.
But now something unexpected happened.
After Wang Hai paid attention in advance, the Golden Fruit was still in Dover's hands.
However, before he could trade it from Dover, some problems arose. Later, it changed several owners.
Finally, after disappearing for several years, the fruit appeared in Kaido's hands.
Now, it was obtained by one of his henchmen.
As Kaido's trusted confidant, this person's development of the golden fruit is no worse than Tezoro in the original plot.
Now, the strength has also reached the general level.
However, he does not appear as a combat member, but hides in secret, specifically providing gold to Kaido.
Heping Island has been able to develop rapidly in recent years and has not been far behind the Heping Island Kingdom. It has a large source of gold, which is also an important reason.
And it just so happens that the Heping Island Kingdom has been purchasing gold. On the sea, gold is also considered one of the hard currencies.
Therefore, in addition to sea floor stones, gold trading also provided a lot of help to the development of Wano.
However, even if the gold-gold fruit ability is awakened, it cannot directly create gold or permanently convert other substances into gold.
The main thing is to be able to easily perceive, find and control gold.
Simply put, they are the most professional gold miners.
However, in the new world, Kaido and Big Mom's territories have shrunk severely, almost all in Wano.
Without the ability to easily set foot in the territory and influence of the Peace Island Kingdom, there are not many places in the new world where gold-gold fruit users can collect gold.
More, they can only go to the land of the four seas to collect gold for Kaido.
For gold, there is a lot of demand due to the industrial development of Heping Island, so Wang Hai has always paid attention to collecting relevant intelligence.
It turned out that it was difficult to find natural gold veins in this sea.
As for the reason, it is actually not difficult to know.
The ability of the golden fruit has been used by an unknown number of users over the past hundreds or thousands of years.
Therefore, all the gold in the sea has already been searched for.
It is precisely because of this that there are various treasure legends on the sea.
Wang Hai suspected that the former golden land of Shantora was created because of the power of the golden fruit.
In short, no matter what, Wang Hai knew that Kaido would not be short of gold.
Although it may not have more than [-] tons like the Heping Island Kingdom, it may be tens of thousands of tons.
Moreover, as long as those with the Gold Fruit ability are still there, they can continuously bring more gold to Kaido.
Wang Hai is not sure how much gold there is in this sea.
However, based on some treasure legends and some gold-related information, we can make a rough estimate.
Hundreds of millions of tons!
This is a very staggering number.
If they rush directly to the market, they can set off a financial storm.
However, a lot of this gold is in the hands of the world government, and some is scattered in the hands of the world's nobles and wealthy people.
The pirates also have some of it in their hands.
Even so, the gold is probably only about tens of millions of tons.
More of them have become various lost treasures, scattered around the world.
What's more important is that all this gold has been mined before.
In fact, there is still more gold deep under the planet.
Not to mention hundreds of millions of tons, even trillions of tons are more than that.
However, mining is very difficult.
Even those with the Gold and Gold Fruit ability have a certain distance and restriction on how to control the gold in the ground.
According to some information, when the golden fruit's ability is developed and awakened, it can only control gold at a depth of about five kilometers to the surface.
As for the deeper parts, the perception becomes blurred due to many obstacles.
Even if you can barely sense it, it will take a lot of energy to control it and take it out.
This gold is not gathered together, but is scattered in the earth's crust. Even if the golden fruit is used, the mining efficiency is not high.
Wang Hai estimated that only when the Golden Gold Fruit is developed to be powerful enough and the awakening progress is more than half, or even close to 100%, will there be a chance to extract most of the gold from this planet.
However, no one has done it since ancient times.
Having said that, Wang Hai believes that not only Kaido, but also the World Government and many forces and individuals who hold a lot of gold in their hands are willing to exchange gold for pure gold.
Don't say one thousand tons per gram.
Even if it's [-] tons per gram, I'm afraid the world government won't even blink an eye.
The reason why he contacted Kaido and exchanged gold for pure gold was that Wang Hai certainly didn't really want to exchange pure gold for gold.
Otherwise, he can obtain at least tens of millions of tons of gold from the World Government.
The reason for the deal with Kaido was just to temporarily stabilize Wano Country.
As for gold, there will be plenty of time and opportunities in the future, so collect it slowly.
In the past few years, the Heping Island Kingdom has only purchased about [-] tons of gold. In fact, it has not fully purchased it.
Otherwise, the gold that can be obtained will only be more.
After all, gold is not of much value to the world government that controls massive amounts of gold.
Once the world government uses gold to exchange a large amount of various materials from the Peace Island Kingdom, sometimes it will have an impact on the economy of the Peace Island Kingdom.
Therefore, at the beginning, the Peace Island Kingdom had already imposed restrictions.
For the acquisition of gold, most of them are acquired from allies.
Until now, Wang Hai has planned to relax certain restrictions so that the world government can use gold to impact the economy of the Heping Island Kingdom.
Thus hindering the development of the Peace Island Kingdom.
In this way, we can find something to do for the World Government, and at the same time take out a batch of gold from the World Government.
As for whether it would be cost-effective to do so, Wang Hai also seriously considered it.
With rapid development in the past few years, many materials in the Heping Island Kingdom have overcapacity and need to be restricted.
Or develop new markets externally.
Although the relationship between the World Government and the Peace Island Kingdom is already antagonistic, it does not mean that trade cannot be carried out.
Even if trade cannot be carried out directly in many aspects, trade can also be carried out indirectly.
Neither Dover nor some other middlemen would mind making this money.
In addition, Wang Hai is not worried that these products will enhance the strength of the world government.
Because the products sold do not include weapons and equipment.
Boo boo boo!
Without letting Wang Hai wait too long, Kaido took the initiative to use the phone bug to contact him again.
"One thousand tons and one gram is impossible..."
The phone was answered, and Kaido's voice roared.
However, before he could finish speaking, Wang Hai interrupted directly and said: "It is indeed impossible, because it has now become 1000, [-] tons per gram."
"Are you joking?"
"If you are willing to continue bargaining, I don't mind continuing to increase the price. As for making it cheaper? This kind of thing is simply impossible."
It can be felt that Kaido must be very angry now, but Wang Hai still speaks calmly, looking like he doesn't want to buy anything.
Kaido's eyes widened, staring at him, and finally stopped talking.
"You'd better keep your eyes calm. Of course, if you want to have a fight, I don't mind accompanying you."
Wang Hai looked at it lightly, without flinching.
Kaido smiled ferociously: "Very good, no one has been willing to fight with me for a long time. Choose a place."
"Hundred Beasts Kaido, I also want to see if you can block my sword. I just have time, so there is no need to choose another one. I will take people to Wano Country."
"Wait for you!"
Without any nonsense, the two ended the call directly.
Later, Wang Hai used the phone to contact Ananda and prepared to set off.
Of course he didn't make a date with Kaido because of a quarrel.
In fact, he did this on purpose.
Because he knows that it is still difficult to deal with Kaido and really stabilize Kaido and Big Mom in Wano Country.
The two people may not really keep their promises.
After all, the credibility of the two of them is really not that good.
He didn't even doubt whether Kaido would trade with him. After obtaining the pure gold, he would turn around and cooperate with the World Government to participate in the robbery of pure gold.
Therefore, he needs Kaido and Big Mom to be more honest.
To achieve this, it is not enough to rely solely on interests, but also to rely on force to deter.
In addition, after five years of not showing strength to the outside world, it is time to let the world know.
In a battle with Kaido, not to mention defeating Kaido, at least he can win or lose with Kaido.
For this, Wang Hai is confident enough.
Kaido's current strength is astonishingly high.
His strength has also reached the ceiling level.
In terms of combat experience, in the past few years, he has fought against three strong men above the extraordinary level: White Beard, Golden Lion, and Ananda.
Therefore, he is not worried that he will lose.
It just so happens that this battle can not only scare Kaido and Big Mom, but also scare those people on the sea who have ideas about pure gold and try to snatch it.
The Kingdom of Peace Island is not far or close to Wano, but for Ananda's Thunder God, it only takes ten minutes.
Nowadays, the Thor has been continuously upgraded and modified as Ananda's strength has improved. In terms of speed, it is definitely the fastest spaceship in the Peace Island Kingdom.
Before leaving, he said hello to Adele and others. With the Golden Lion, a strong man above the extraordinary level, sitting here, as well as many extraordinary levels and generals, Wang Hai was not worried about the safety of the Heping Island Kingdom.
What's more, Ananda himself, or with the speed of the Thor, can rush back at any time to support, or support Whitebeard.
However, Whitebeard's side most likely does not need support. Wang Hai has enough confidence in Whitebeard.
"Hundred Beasts Kaido, here I come, come out and fight!"
Ten minutes later, with a roar piercing the sky, a bolt of lightning appeared over Wano Country.
Immediately afterwards, people saw a spaceship with flashing lights hovering in the sky.
A young man's voice came from the spaceship and resounded throughout Wano.
Seeing the appearance of this spaceship, many people thought of Ananda, the god of thunder many years ago.
Although the spaceship has undergone some changes and looks more gorgeous and dreamy, it can still be vaguely recognized that the God of Thunder, Ananda, arrived in such a spaceship.
However, the voice that came seemed not to be Ananda, the God of Thunder.
"It's him, Wang Hai, the king of Heping Island Kingdom!"
The hovering height of the spacecraft was only a few hundred meters, and many people with good eyesight could clearly see the young man standing on the bow deck of the spacecraft.
Someone recognized Wang Hai.
Although Wang Hai is not the strongest person in the Heping Island Kingdom, as a famous handsome man in the Heping Island Kingdom and even on the sea, Wang Hai's image has long been widely known.
