Pirates: New Creator
Chapter 71 Tom Shipbuilding Company
The news from Liehu made Kevin no longer interested in playing. He asked someone to find out the location of "Tom Shipbuilding Company", and Kevin hurried there.
When Kevin arrived at the "Tom Shipbuilding Company" outside the city, the shipbuilder Tom was not there. The person who received Kevin was a young man in his twenties. The young man said politely: "Hello, Mr. , do you want to build a ship?"
Kevin recognized the young man in front of him at a glance as Iceberg, Tom's eldest disciple who would be renamed Iceberg in the future. Seeing Iceberg asking about his purpose, Kevin certainly could not directly tell him that the CP5 officer under the World Government would be coming. If you say this to cause trouble for your teacher Tom, Espagu will probably be kicked out as a lunatic. So Kevin followed Espagu's words and said: "Yes, I heard that the Seven Waters is the ship manufacturing capital of the world, and the legendary shipbuilder Tom is the world's number one shipbuilder, so I'm not far away I have come thousands of miles away, hoping that Mr. Tom can help me build a boat.”
When Espagu heard that there was a business coming to him, he originally wanted to agree, but he remembered that the construction of teacher Tom's sea train was at an important stage, so he said apologetically: "I'm sorry, sir, I'm afraid the teacher can't build a ship for you for the time being."
Of course Kevin knew that Tom was currently busy building the sea train, but he still pretended to be confused and asked: "Does Mr. Tom have anything else important? I can double the cost."
"Sir, it's like this. In the early years, my teacher was recognized by the World Government as an accomplice of 'One Piece' because he built his pirate ship 'Auro Jackson' for 'Pirate King' Gol D. Roger." , was originally going to be punished with death, but fortunately, the teacher proposed the idea of building a sea train, and the World Government ordered that if the teacher could really build a sea train, his sins could be pardoned. The time limit given at that time was ten years, but now the time limit is almost It's almost time to arrive, and the construction of the sea train has entered a critical stage, so the teacher is busy building the sea train during this time and has no time to build a ship for you." Asbagu explained.
"Sea train, what is that? Is it a train that can run on the sea?" Kevin asked in surprise. Kevin knew what the sea train was. After all, he had watched "One Piece", but now There is no concept of sea train in the pirate world. Even eight years later, the sea train is not known to anyone outside the Grand Line.
Espagu asked: "Sir, what do you think of the current Seven Waters Capital?"
Kevin thought for a moment and said, "This is my first time here, but I feel this is a very beautiful and romantic city on the water."
Espagu said: "Yes, this is the feeling of many people who come here for the first time. However, in fact, this city has slowly declined. You have also heard that this is the shipbuilding capital of the world. However, due to transportation, it is very inconvenient to purchase shipbuilding materials. Coupled with transportation and other reasons, the cost of shipbuilding is getting higher and higher, so now fewer and fewer people come here to build ships. In order to change this situation, the teacher The concept of building a sea train was put forward, which simply means using special tracks to connect islands and using specially manufactured trains to run on such tracks."
"Is that so? This is really a great idea. If it succeeds, I think it won't be long before the Seven Rivers City can become the center of the world's shipbuilding industry again. I will definitely give it a try by then. Try the feeling of riding a sea train." Kevin said with sincere admiration.
"Brother, I believe this day is not far away!" A rich voice came from behind Kevin.
"Teacher." Espagu greeted the visitor quickly.
Kevin turned around and finally saw the legendary shipbuilder Tom. Kevin has always complained about the body shape of the characters in the world of pirates. The body shape settings of many characters are quite unscientific. For example, the one in front of me now has a huge body but a pair of small thin legs. I really don’t know. What was Oda thinking when designing it? Complaints are complaints, but Kevin still politely said to Tom: "You must be Mr. Tom, right?"
"I am Tom. I wonder why you are here, little brother?" Tom asked in his rich and bold voice.
"Teacher, this gentleman wants you to help build the ship." Before Kevin could speak, Espagu answered first.
Tom smiled and said: "Haha, it turns out that I want to build a ship, of course. I wonder what kind of ship you want to build, little brother?"
Kevin thought for a while and said: "It should be bigger, the attack power should be stronger, and the defense should not be too bad. It would be best if the overall power can reach the level of 'Pluto'."
"I think you're looking in the wrong place, little brother. I can't build a ship as great as 'Pluto'. You'd better hire someone else!" When he heard the word "Pluto", Tom's smile disappeared instantly, and his tone was not Okay then, just issue an eviction order to Kevin directly.
After listening to Tom's words, Espagu also began to look at Kevin warily.
Kevin smiled and said: "Mr. Tom, I don't mean any harm. Let me introduce myself first. I am now called Tang Kevin. I am a descendant of the Tang Quixote family of the Tianlong clan. I am also a disciple of Vice Admiral Garp of the Navy. I am still a There are no graduating Navy recruits." Kevin did not hide his identity, but told Tom truthfully.
Tom frowned, the Celestial Dragons, as a fishman, Tom can be said to have no favorable impression of the Celestial Dragons, because if the Celestial Dragons had not intervened behind the scenes, there would not have been so many fishmen being sold as slaves. But when I heard Kevin say that he was a disciple of Garp, he asked: "As far as I know, the Celestial Dragons usually enter the top ranks of the world government and hold idle positions. How do you want to be a navy and why do you become Lieutenant General Garp?" Disciple?"
Kevin knew that revealing his identity as a Draco would definitely have a certain impact on recruiting Tom and Espagu, but for his next plan, Kevin had no choice but to reveal his identity in advance.
"Mr. Tom, although I am a member of the Heavenly Dragon clan, I still disagree with some of the practices of the Heavenly Dragons. For example, regarding the treatment of Fish-Man Island, I feel that the Fish-men and Mermaids on Fish-Man Island are actually no different from humans. The difference is just race,” Kevin said.
Tom's face became slightly better after hearing Kevin's words. You must know that the reason why fish people are captured in large numbers and sold as slaves is inseparable from the encouragement of the Celestial Dragons. But Tom still asked: "What do you think of the slave problem?"
Kevin said seriously: "I don't think slaves should exist in this world, not just slaves, but even nobles should not exist."
