Chapter 202 The Mystery Revealed

Just as Ain was about to ask who was waiting for him, a voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Sorry, I was too fascinated by the research last night, and it was a little late in the morning."

late?Fang Xing didn't think so. Judging from the gloomy sky outside, it was only around six o'clock in the morning, which was too early anyway!One can tell at a glance that each of these people is more excited than the other, otherwise normal people would have to visit others after seven or eight o'clock.

Fang Xing felt that instead of crowding in this small room and having no peace, it would be better to set off directly, perhaps knowing that there would be leisure time on the boat, so he suggested: "Everyone is here, then let's set off."

Time passed by on the boat, and Fang Xing did not find peace as he had imagined. On the contrary, because there was no other person to interfere, he was entangled by Ain asking this and that, making him even more sleepy.

"It's finally here." Fang Xing sighed.

At this moment, everyone finally came to Newport Island after a long journey.

Even with a special chart and sailing with the current, it still took nearly a week.

Such is the inconvenience of navigation.

At least Fang Xing didn't feel that there was anything interesting, and the feeling of his feet touching the ground was more real.

"Let me tell you, your point of view is wrong. Of course, a ship must rely on itself to be called a ship. If it relies on external objects, it is no longer a ship." Theodore argued.

Regarding what he said, Tom laughed and said: "Aren't the sails, poles, oars, and wood all the same foreign objects? The combination of these things is a complete ship. As long as the ship can What’s wrong with getting better.”

Although what Tom said is indeed somewhat reasonable, after receiving traditional shipbuilding technical training, Theodore's understanding of shipbuilding is also relatively traditional. Tom's statement seems to him more like sophistry.

"Sails, poles and other things are originally the utensils that make up the ship. How can they be regarded as foreign objects? Instead, you want to add items to the complete hull, which is tantamount to destroying the overall structure of the ship."

The two people's problems about the boat started almost from the moment they first arrived on the boat, and it has not ended until now. Although Theodore admits that he is not enough for Tom in many aspects, he is not the slightest when it comes to maintaining the hull structure. Don't budge.

Tom, on the other hand, pursues magnanimity, builds a boat only with his heart, and also does not make concessions, so there is a dispute over this point of view.

Personally, Fang Xing agrees with Tom. The ship itself is built to serve people. If you ignore the basics, don’t think about innovation, and blindly pursue the original, what’s the point? But the current matter is not arguing about who is right and who is wrong , but investigate the state of the island.

Because Theodore talked about his friend's affairs, Fang Xing decided to investigate from Newport Island first.

"Theodore, where is your friend?"

"It's not far from the island, because it's more convenient to put the built ship into the sea anytime and anywhere."

After walking along the coast for about a few miles, the destination is a large dock.

Theodore pointed at him, "This is where my friend lives."

Fang Xing couldn't help but joked.

"It's also why the treatment of the boatmen is so different."

Not only Theodore's friends, Tom also owned a shipbuilding company in the water capital before helping One Piece Roger build the pirate ship, and Theodore became an ordinary house repairer.

"I'm called professionalism. How can a real shipbuilder be confused by foreign objects." Theodore said, but his face was a little unnatural. Most of these words were just a reason for forcing them out.

Walking into the dock, the boatmen are busy building the boat.

Although I don't know what kind of ship is being built, judging from the hull, it is an extremely large ship.Judging from the molds made, such a huge dock is actually only building a base for it, and the shape of the hull does not appear on the base, which shows that this is not even a complete base.

The arrival of Fang Xing and the others also attracted the attention of other people, and a scruffy man with thick limbs and unkempt appearance came out after a while.

"Theodore, how do you have time to come to me, you idiot?"

"Brad, do you think I'd love to come to you?"

"Come on, you're here if you don't like it, duplicity. Are you envious that I have the chance to touch the strongest tree in legend? Let me tell you that you made a wrong decision when you chose to be a shipwright in the Navy, you Look at what you are now, you can't change jobs, you can only die alone like this."

In this world, from the moment you become a navy shipwright, you are not allowed to change jobs.Because the navy does not allow a boatman to leave anyway, this may involve some secrets of the warship, this time Theodore was able to come out because of Fang Xing.Otherwise, although other situations will not interfere with the freedom of the island, they will be strictly scrutinized when going out and sending letters.

Theodore was speechless when he heard what Brad said.Originally becoming a naval shipbuilder, he also bragged to his friends for a while, because a naval shipbuilder almost means having access to the best materials, the best equipment, and the best technology.

But everything changed when Vegapunk added sea stones to the ship. Because there was no attack from the Neptune class, the navy was not as enthusiastic about improving warships as before. With the reduction of boatmen and reduction of funds, the navy shipbuilder suddenly became A position that no one yearns for.

Although the situation is indeed like this, Theodore's face can't be hindered, so he can only forcefully say: "I am willing, can you control it?"

Brad smiled suddenly, and carefully took out a small piece of wood from behind, not because he was worried that the wood would be damaged, but simply because of the precious things.It's like knowing that the golden bowl is durable, but no one is playing with it.Then, as if showing off, he said to Theodore: "This is the strongest tree, the precious tree Adam. How about it, envy, I can smell it for you, of course don't touch it with your dirty hands."

Just at that moment, a hand emerged from the side and took the piece of wood over.

"This is Adam!"

Brad wanted to get angry, but after seeing the person who took away the wood, his anger was suppressed.

"Are you... Tom? Tom of the world's number one shipbuilder?"

Although Tom is still a stranger to many people, Tom is a star in the shipbuilding world.

Tom admitted frankly: "Yes, I am Tom."

After Tom confessed, Brad became even more excited and couldn't help himself. He symbolically ignored Theodore, turned around and said respectfully to Tom, "I've heard of you for a long time. I have many questions to ask you."

The difference in attitude gave Theodore the urge to beat someone up.

Before Tom could answer, a voice from the side stepped in.

"What kind of ship are you building?"

Brad turned around and saw that it was a child. He wanted to answer and dismiss him casually, but when he saw those eyes and the aura coming from Fang Xing, he couldn't help feeling a palpitation.In his industry, shipbuilding is either for merchants or for pirates.When building a ship for a merchant, you need to be careful not to be encroached on by it; when building a ship for a pirate, you need to consider your own wealth and life.Over time, he has the ability to see people.

Although he didn't know why he felt palpitations, he still responded to the fear in his heart and answered truthfully.

"I don't know what kind of ship to build. I only know that it is a huge ship, an unprecedented huge ship."

"Oh? How big is it?"

"The size of a small city can be built on it."

".How did you know?"

"Although the several design drawings given to me are all here and there, but after so many years of shipbuilding, I still have a little discernment, so I can see it naturally."

When Brad answered the city size and contacted the local rich man that Theodore mentioned before, Fang Xing had the answer, but he still asked: "How did the other party pay for it?"

"Gold payment."

Sure enough, Fang Xing secretly thought.

If you guessed correctly, this person is "Golden Emperor" Gilder Tezolo.
