The Grand Line: I Represent My Nation in a Political Marriage with the Land of Sand

Geology expert Duke transmigrates to the world of One Piece and signs an agreement with the desert kingdom of Alabasta on behalf of his country to cooperate in the energy sector.

However, the agreement has an additional clause... marriage alliance!

The energy resources the West uses to keep us in a chokehold, such as coal, oil, and natural gas,

are considered weak in the world of One Piece because its technological development took a different path.

Duke also brought along a Resource Tycoon System.

With the System's help, all the resources Duke extracts are converted into reserves for his homeland at a certain ratio.

Then...

After extracting 10 billion barrels of crude oil, 20 billion barrels have been added to the nation's reserves.

After extracting 5 billion tons of high-quality coal, it has been converted...

Oh? There's a huge amount of natural gas beneath the sea?

Drill!

Huh? The Red Line is so red because it has an extremely high iron content?

Dig!

What? The Celestial Dragons up there won't allow it?

No problem. I've always believed in winning people over with virtue. Anything can be discussed!

You're Imu, right? Come on, help me check whether the character for virtue on this blade looks standard enough!
