I, the naval alchemist, started to refine the physical strength elixir.

Shane was very happy, he saw the hope of getting funding.

Originally he thought he might get 10 million Baileys in funding, but now he may be able to raise his expectations a little higher.

There was no rush to prepare for the high-level discussion on [Physical Strength Pill]. When Warring States and others calmed down a little, Xia En showed a helpless look and said:

"well! The only drawback is the high cost. The cost of making a [Stamina Pill] is 1 million Baileys.

As soon as he finished speaking, Karp retorted:"Why is it so expensive?""

"What is 1 million Baileys if it can change the direction of a war? Qingzhi nodded slightly:"You're right, the value of [Stamina Pill] is far greater than the value of 1 million Baileys.""

The other generals also nodded in approval.

For an artifact like [Physical Strength Pill], 1 million is a bargain!

Xia En was overjoyed, and he immediately struck while the iron was hot:"Uncle, I think it's best to make more of the first batch, such as Here comes 1000 pills"

"In this way, each of the powerful generals of the Navy can get a few of them, which is the most perfect."

As soon as these words came out, the corner of Warring States' mouth twitched. The generals present were also secretly surprised, and at the same time there was a touch of joy on their faces. He asked for

1,000 pills, and he had to be his nephew!

Although they wanted to say this, they couldn't Dare to suggest anything casually, after all, one pill is one million, and 1,000 pills is one billion Baileys... enough to build a large battleship!

Garp got excited,"Shane is right, there are a few [ With [Stamina Pill] in hand, you don’t have to worry about fighting"

"The opponent was bombarded at the beginning, and the opponent was absolutely confused."

Xia En silently praised Garp in his heart. The best assistant is decided to be you.

With Garp's assist, Warring States pondered for a few seconds, and then said:"Okay! 1,000 is 1,000"

"Marshal wise!!"

The generals immediately applauded.

Upon seeing this, Warring States knew that these generals were eager for [Physical Strength Pill], and recognized Xia En.

Immediately, Warring States struck while the iron was hot:"Based on Xia En's contribution! I officially announce that Shane has been appointed to the position of rear admiral!"

"Set up a separate science department for Xia En. The first fund is 1 billion beli, and he will have full control over it. But for 1,000 [Physical Strength Pills], Xia En, you have to give it out on time and in quantity. Is that okay?"

Warring States looked at Xia En with a smile.

Since his family is so capable, how could he let go of such a good opportunity for reasonable promotion?

Xia En raised his eyebrows, very surprised.

He was not even a third-class soldier, and now he suddenly became one Are you a major general?

You have been promoted to more than ten levels in a row, right?

However, the arrangement of the Warring States Period did not cause Garp, Qingzhi and other generals present to raise objections and doubts. On the contrary, everyone was quite supportive.

"For his contribution to the development of [Physical Strength Pill], it is reasonable to become a major general."

"Even if I am a lieutenant general, I think it is completely worth it!"

"Haha, Major General Xia En, please give me more advice in the future!"

"……"

Everyone followed suit and began to say good things to Xia En and make friends.

Does Xia En know what these people are thinking?

But he enjoyed it.

With the blessing of 1 billion Baileys.

The tasks issued by the system can be completed. When you burn through 1 billion Baileys and make 1,000 [Physical Strength Pills], you can unlock the second pill!!

Xia En was very much looking forward to what the second pill would be, but what he was even more looking forward to was the lottery.

1,000 [Stamina Pills] means that you have an advance payment of 1,000 [Technology Points]. As long as it arrives, you can draw 10 bronze-level draws, or 1 silver-level draw.……

"This time, not to mention how strong I can become, at least I can have some strength to protect myself."

……

Soon, the Warring States Period approved the note, and the 1 billion funds arrived as scheduled.

Xia En was also officially promoted to major general of the headquarters and served as the director of the technical department, responsible for the construction and completion of the laboratory, as well as making the material purchase list, etc.

Leave everything else to the lieutenant generals and major generals.

……

Time flies, and half a month has passed.

On this day, Akainu, who had been out on missions for many days, finally returned to Marineland, and many soldiers went to greet him.

The warship stopped, and Akainu and his adjutant stepped off the ship one after the other.

"Alas, this mission is really tiring. These pirates are so good at running away. They have been chasing for almost a month.……"

The adjutant who was complaining realized that after a while, Akainu had disappeared.

He quickly looked around and saw Akainu had gone far away.

Looking at the direction Akainu was walking, the adjutant immediately knew that Akainu planned to return to his office.

The adjutant moved his lips, then quickly followed, and said to Akainu:"Sir Sakaski, you have been working hard for nearly a month, why don't you go back and rest for a while?"

"It's working time now, how can we take a break?"Akainu refused.

The adjutant was helpless. He knew that Akainu was tired, and he knew even more that nothing could persuade Akainu. He was too dedicated to his work.

When Akainu and the adjutant were walking towards the office, the soldiers beside them started talking. The sound attracted the attention of the two people.

Only one of them said:"It's been half a month, so the new major general hasn't moved yet?"

"Not yet, I guess it won’t be that fast. After all, it’s scientific research, and the marshal also allocated 1 billion beli. I don’t think it’s strange that there has been no movement for half a year."

"1 billion Baileys. I estimate that my whole life as a soldier will never be as much as my nephew from the Warring States Period."

"……"

From the conversation between the two, he learned that the Warring States Period allocated 1 billion beli to his nephew, and Akainu couldn't help but show displeasure.

What is the purpose of allocating so much money? Using the public for personal gain?

Akainu's"absolute justice" does not allow such a thing to happen in the army, so he immediately stopped, turned to the soldiers and asked:

"What happened when the marshal allocated 1 billion beli to his nephew? Tell me everything you know."

A few soldiers were startled. They didn't expect that small talk could attract the general.

The soldiers didn't dare to neglect, and quickly told Akainu everything about Xia En.

"General Akainu, this is what happened.……"

Several soldiers tremblingly told everything they knew.

"【Physical strength pill】？"

"No matter how tired you are, can you regain your strength instantly?"

"There are no side effects, it can adapt to most harsh scenarios, and it can even satisfy hunger?"

"Just to make these 1,000 [Physical Strength Pills], the Warring States Marshal approved 1 billion in funds for his nephew?!"

After hearing this, Akainu was stunned, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

After the adjutant listened to the introduction of [Physical Strength Pill], he was secretly speechless,"Restore physical strength immediately? Are you kidding me?"

If there really is such a thing, wouldn't it mean that no matter how long you perform missions in the future, you won't feel tired and you can use your devil fruit powers as you want?"

"What?! I've only heard of it, but never seen it?!"

And when Akainu heard several soldiers saying that they had never seen the [Strength Pill], they just heard about it, Akainu couldn't help but get angry. It's just a rumor that he has never seen it?

It feels like this kind of thing involves Sengoku's nephew, and there must be something fishy in it....

After thinking about it, Akainu took another step, but this time he did not intend to go back to his office, but to the Marshal's Mansion.

Akainu planned to ask Sengoku face to face what was going on. He was deeply concerned about the [Stamina Pill] Suspect……
