As a pirate, he wants to be the king but relies on his son to conquer the world.

In the year 1511 of the Haiyuan calendar, three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Sparrow and Einstein. Take everyone to exercise together and become familiar with fruit skills.

Sparrow finally gave Bellemere the natural rain fruit and Alice the superhuman cooking fruit. As for Maginot who hasn't arrived at Sky Island yet, Sparrow also left one for her.

Some time ago, Sparrow laughed out loud when he saw the tragic scene of Sissi and the others eating Devil Fruit. But now he couldn't laugh anymore. It is rare to eat a Devil Fruit once in your life, but in order to "create a human being", Sparrow has to eat it thousands of times.

This reminded Sparrow of the joke in his previous life, where he said that Daddy Ma would give him 100,000 for eating a piece of shit. Sparrow felt that after eating the entire Devil Fruit, he could make Daddy Ma go bankrupt! !

Even if the effect of using Life Return to mask the taste is still very poor, Sparrow now just wants to use Life Return to open his mouth wide and swallow it in one gulp like Bucky the Clown.

Not only that, during this time, Sparrow was also thinking about promoting the Industrial Revolution.

The technology in the pirate world is very complex, including not only electricity technology, laser technology, various biological and chemical technologies, and mechanized artificial intelligence, but steam-driven technology should also exist, because the driving of the sea train and Wanli more than ten years later The driving power of the boat in the Sunshine is most likely derived from steam.

But why isn't steam drive popular on sailing ships? Is it because the World Government deliberately controls it, or because Vegapunk doesn't bother to put this technology into civilian use?

Vegapunk's technology is 500 years ahead of today's technology. Even laser technology can be used. There is no reason why steam technology cannot be mastered. Speaking of which, there is another question. If the train is driven by steam, then this technology will not work. The principle does not apply to naval warships. So far, naval warships have relied on wheel power, so the driving method on sea trains is worth thinking about.

But no matter what, if you fully master the steam drive technology, it will be of great help to future development.

And if steam technology can be popularized, then the world of pirates in the future is likely to undergo earth-shaking changes. However, it is extremely difficult to develop and popularize steam-driven technology, although Sparrow has never thought about it. This technology is widespread.

But Sparrow has Einstein and Asuna, so it would be easier to create another metal fruit user.

First, check whether there is a steam engine in the world. And why couldn’t the steam engine develop? Could it be that the world has gone astray and is not on the road to industrialization?

As a result, he sent his men to investigate, and Sparrow was confused.

Shit! There are very few coal mines in this shitty world. Come to think of it, Sparrow has not seen large-scale coal use in recent years. There are many islands in this world, but most of them are very small. Strong people often destroy mountains and explode islands when they fight. What's more, there are guys like Golden Lion who are throwing islands everywhere.

Although I don’t know why there are so many small islands, coal is an extremely thick layer of black humus accumulated on the ground from the branches, leaves and roots of plants over millions of years. It is continuously buried underground due to changes in the earth’s crust. , isolated from the air for a long time, and formed after a series of complex physical and chemical changes under high temperature and high pressure. The formation of black combustible sedimentary rock is how coal is formed. The thickness of a coal seam in a coal mine is related to the rate of crustal decline in the area and the amount of plant remains accumulated. If the earth's crust declines quickly and the plant remains accumulate thickly, the coal seam of this coal mine will be thick. On the contrary, if the earth's crust declines slowly and the plant remains accumulate thin, the coal seam of this coal mine will be thin.

Even if there are coal mines here, most of them are in the sea.

What should be used as power for the new steam engine? Could it be that it would be a trap to directly develop internal combustion engines?

Although I don’t know what the disadvantages of this technology upgrade are, it is not in line with the development path of technology in previous generations.

It would be better to call him over to Tesla and Ray and start the electrical revolution directly.

etc! Since there are very few coal mines, what about oil? I don't think I've ever heard that there is oil in the sea.

Sparrow quickly checked again.

Oh, mygod! There really is no oil.

So what do I use for fuel? Do you use Coke as fuel like Frankie? I really don’t know how the cola in this world is made, which can be drunk and used as fuel. Because of this, Sparrow hasn't had a Coke for a long time.

How could there be an industrial revolution without coal? Do you use charcoal to make steel like France did in your previous life? What is used to make steel in this world? What's the power?

Sparrow patted his head, wondering what he was thinking about here, so he called outside: "Here, call Einstein over. By the way, there is Xiaolan."

"Yes." A servant responded and hurried out to call someone.

Einstein and Xiaolan arrived soon.

Sparrow directly asked Xiaolan to pull out what he had just thought of and show it to Einstein.

Einstein closed his eyes and thought for a while, then opened his eyes and said: "That's it. At present, there are very few countries on the sea that have completed industrialization. It can be said that they are insignificant, and most of the industrialization is concentrated in light industries such as the textile industry.

Most of heavy industry can still only be done in laboratories, with little scale.

Countries that use coal and oil are not without them, but their output is very small. Most countries use Devil Fruit as driving energy, which is why the sea technology appears so strange.

According to my father's idea, the industrial revolution needs a stable, producible, non-devil fruit mineral as energy to start the industrial revolution.

The only option is to find new coal mines and oil. What is certain now is that there are coal mines and oil in this world, but most of them should be in the sea.

My suggestion is that father can use Devil Fruit to cultivate his own fish-men or mermaids to exploit the energy in the sea.

On the other hand, I can also try to find new energy sources, but without the guidance of my father's memory, the pace of industrialization may slow down.

Thirdly, you can also look for similar devil fruits that can be used as energy sources. After all, we already have the Thunder Fruit, the Electricity Fruit, and the Magnetic Fruit, and we can carry out an electrical revolution in the future. First use Devil Fruit as energy to develop industry and carry out the first industrial revolution. Then jump right to the electrical revolution for the second industrial revolution. It would be more convenient if you find coal fruit or oil fruit. ”

Sparrow heard Einstein's suggestion and suddenly became enlightened.

"As expected of my Sparrow son." Sparrow patted Einstein on the shoulder, and the depression in his heart was swept away.

So he ordered his subordinates to buy fish-man slaves and prepare to make his own fish-men. At the same time, let Einstein pay more attention to new mineral energy sources. Look through the devil fruit illustrated book to see if there are any similar energy fruits.

Sparrow doesn't believe it after a three-pronged approach. Are there any hurdles that superpowers can't overcome?
