Chapter 111 The magical ore that converts solar energy and the solar technology of the giants!
Cloud path, mist boat...—
Bazel frowned and looked down, feeling as if he had grasped something particularly important.
correct!
Sunstone!!!
"You ask me what sunstone is?"
Aruru was clearly surprised that Bazel's thoughts could jump so far. After a few moments of stunned silence, he slowly spoke.
"A very special mineral that can convert sunlight into a special kind of energy, which can then be used in different places."
"The rainbow bridge you see is just one of the uses of the sunstone, but this thing also has a drawback."
"It cannot be used in weather without sunshine."
"In other words, if you want to use the rainbow bridge carved with sunstone as a bridge between the sky island and the land in the future, it may fail on rainy or snowy days."
"This is it!"
Bazel looked excited, but behind that excitement lay a deep thought that others couldn't understand.
Sun Technology!!
He finally realized what he had been ignoring!
Sunstone, a special mineral that can convert sunlight into "energy"!
Elbaf is known as the birthplace of war and the world's strongest nation, and this is not solely due to the terrifying power of the giants that inhabit it.
Suppose,
The energy extracted from sunstone can be used for more than just creating the Rainbow Bridge; are there other applications?
Upon arriving in the mortal realm, Bazel saw many enormous cannons hidden within the canopy of the World Tree.
And there's also the massive Seastone chains that bound Loki in the original story.
It's important to know that Loki was only captured by Shanks and the giants in 1516 of the Sea Calendar. At that time, Wano Country had been controlled by the Beasts Pirates for twenty years.
It's simply impossible for them to send craftsmen to help the giants forge the Seastone chains.
Moreover, the chains that bound Loki were not of a scale used by normal humans.
In other words, there are artisans among the giants who possess forging skills!
They may have used the special energy of the sunstone to create those giant cannons and seastone chains!
However, for some reason, those special giant cannons could not be used on ships at sea—
A sudden realization flashed in Bazel's eyes.
Unable to leave Elbaf?
Unable to leave the World Tree!
Could the Sunstone be a special entity attached to this enormous World Tree?
Once this special ore leaves a certain range of the World Tree, its unique energy will slowly dissipate.
Once the energy dissipates, the sunstone will turn into an ordinary stone.
At most, it's a harder ore.
And those giant cannons built with special energy, perhaps their starting energy source is the sun!
It's not surprising that Elbaf, as one of the few places that worships the sun god Nika, possesses unique "solar technology."
Sunstone can be used as a means of transportation in peacetime, and also as a special energy source during wartime.
At this moment, Bazel felt that many of his thoughts had become clear.
Why would the World Government want the power of the giants? Why did Jabba choose to live in seclusion in Elbaf after the Roger Pirates arrived at Laugh Tale?
It's all because of the World Tree itself!
No wonder Harald readily offered to fund a batch of sunstones for him; this is the reason.
It seems that at the top of this World Tree, in that special place called the Celestial Realm, there are secrets that I cannot understand.
Perhaps the source of the sunstone is that place closest to the sun.
After figuring these things out, Bazel quietly suppressed his thoughts.
Don't be fooled by Harald's current amiable demeanor and the apparent control over the conversation.
But Barzel knew.
The Celestial Realm is an absolute taboo for the Giants.
If Harald dares to mention anything about the Celestial Realm or legendary Devil Fruits, he will definitely turn on you.
He is no longer the simple giant king he once was, but a competent politician.
He knew what face to wear to deal with himself.
But if the taboo is broken, the Giant King will definitely revert to the domineering giant who roamed the seas decades ago.
Then let yourself see what true giant power is.
"What did you remember?" Aruru asked at the right moment.
"No, they are just some ideas. I was previously concerned about new energy issues."
Speak with 9% truth and 1% falsehood; this is how you gain the trust and favor of the person you are talking to.
Barzel knew this well, so he didn't lie about it completely.
"Elder Yaru, you just said that sunstones can convert sunlight into special energy and then create rainbows, right?"
"If, and I mean if, it could be converted into the energy needed for other things?"
Tom, standing to the side, widened his eyes to their maximum and looked at Yaru with rapid breathing.
Yup!
If we could convert the sun's rays into energy, then Water Seven would be saved!!!
As long as Water Seven is transformed into a giant, unsinkable ship!
With the special energy conversion device of the Sunstone, Water Seven will be able to ride the waves no matter how many times they encounter the water gods!
"Aruru looked troubled, and the frequency of his hand stroking his beard increased considerably."
"Forgive my frankness, but I'm afraid it's difficult because the structure of sunstone is very special, and I cannot guarantee that."
"If you're still not convinced, you can have your scientists try to study it."
"There might be a surprise."
"Bazaar!"
Tom pressed down on Bazel's shoulder, his eyes filled with hope:
"We must get Asiya to develop this special conversion device. With it, I can transform Water Seven into a giant ship!"
"With the addition of new energy sources, that island can definitely stand forever on the sea!"
"Moreover, the energy problem of marine vehicles can also be solved with this, simply by adding an energy storage device."
"By automatically storing energy on sunny days, and as long as the device doesn't break down, the maritime car could theoretically achieve endless sailing!"
How can we ensure the device doesn't break down?
Bazel looked strange; ensuring quality and quantity was not what he was looking for.
If a car can be used for ten or twenty years, how will it make money?
Regular annual inspections and replacement of equipment are required; otherwise, BaiShou Energy Company will not be responsible for any problems that arise.
Furthermore, a service life must be stipulated, for example, after 8 or 9 years of use, the marine vehicle must be scrapped.
If you wish to continue using it, please purchase the new Beastkini.
Don't ask why.
The answer is that the parts are worn out, and they keep driving because they want to be reincarnated sooner.
Wow, I'm really a money-making genius!
Looking at Bazel, who was grinning foolishly, Tom released his grip and looked at his own palm suspiciously.
Did I shake the other person so hard they went crazy?
"cough."
"Sorry, my thoughts were a bit scattered just now. Having too many thoughts can be a problem, please understand."
After smashing the pot onto the head of the Yamata no Orochi fruit, Bazel picked up his wine bowl and clinked glasses with Harald repeatedly.
"Come on, let's drink! We won't leave until we're drunk!"
The next morning, the drunkard in the study of Auersto Castle was still not sober.
On the contrary, the Beast Pirates outside West Village were very lively.
Hanafza somehow found a teacher's suit, held a wooden stick, and had a large blackboard behind him.
"You little brats, listen up!"
"Yes, Teacher Hanafza!"
Seven or eight giant brats sat up straight, each holding a notebook about the size of a human.
"True adventure is when a man sets sail with the unwavering conviction that he will die!"
"Teacher~"
A giant girl raised her hand: "Can girls go on adventures too?"
"That's a very good question!"
The giant girl, pleased with the praise, sat down again with a grin.
Hanafza first gave the "little" girl a thumbs-up as encouragement.
"Girls can go to sea as long as they have the same belief, but I'm warning you little devils."
"Setting sail is not a child's game!"
"Once you choose to take this step, it means you have to say goodbye to your parents and family, and you may not see them again for many years!"
"Don't come crying and begging to come home when the time comes, I can't afford to lose face like that!"
"..."
Not far away, Tengetsu watched Hanafza teaching the giant children and covered his face in anguish.
"That idiot~"
"He himself can barely read, so where does he get the courage to teach the giants' children!"
"Bazaar will be so shocked when he finds out that his jaw will drop to the floor."
"Don't worry about it, Nishimura hasn't been this lively in a long time, hahaha~"
Sitting next to Olga, Gertz carefully poked Olga's chubby cheek with his finger.
Olga stared with dead fish eyes:
"I am not a toy, please have basic respect for human children—"
Jin (in a serious tone) muttered, "What's with this two-hundred-year-old woman pretending to be young?"
Olga clenched her fists, her hair rose without wind, and it was as if a demon had appeared behind her.
"You damned King, don't you dare run away! This time I'm going to bite your ass off!!!"
