[Pirate]Silver CloakNever Care

Tasia looked at the black-haired man opposite. He wore a black top hat, with sharp upward eyebrows. His eyes were as sharp as a falcon. He was tall and strong, and the bulging muscles between his arms were full of explosive beauty.

A white dove wearing a tie sat on his shoulder, its small red eyes widened, and the expression on its face was as serious as its owner.

Tasia's expression was also very serious. Although this was probably the first time she had seen this famous shipbuilder in the City of Seven Waters, she somehow felt that this person was full of a sense of disobedience.

This sense of inconsistency is not reflected in the talking pigeon on his shoulder (this is what Tasia thinks is most right about him), but in his clothes, movements, and even the fact that he is in a lively place. The shipyard itself.

He shouldn't be wearing such simple overalls, Tasia thought, and he shouldn't be standing upright in the sun so that everyone can see his face clearly.

He should wear black, black enough to blend in with the night.

He should be as cold as the cold wind, and people can only see his back and the wind.

He should

Tasia felt a headache. She was a person without a past, and all her memories in her life began on the Omeric Islands in the Western Sea four years ago. There, she was rescued by Erko, a scavenger girl. The two depended on each other and learned common sense about life from various novels they picked up.

Does this man named Rob Lucci have any connection with her past?

Rob Lucci's head doesn't hurt. Before he came, he had received notice from Kalifa - a woman almost identical to Nicole Olvia suddenly appeared on the island, and Bruno was worried that this would affect their plan.

What does it matter?

He looked at the scratching woman in front of him coldly.

There are only three lurking tasks for them. The first is to obtain the blueprint of the ancient Pluto. The second is to capture Nico Robin alive who can interpret ancient texts. The third is to escape without attracting attention. The third one is actually the icing on the cake. Even if they reveal their identity in front of these ordinary people after completing their mission, what if they have the courage to go to the World Government to complain?

Under such principles, the method of dealing with this woman is obvious - control her actions and completely erase her existence.

Tasia shivered suddenly.

It was a sunny afternoon, but a gust of dark wind seemed to blow by. Tasia sneezed, thinking that no matter what, her job would be decided today. As for the past, it was useless to think about it. She You must have a correct attitude towards your future colleagues and do not look at them through colored glasses.

In the stalemate where both sides were silent, Tasia took the lead in taking action.

She bowed respectfully to Lu Qi, took off her tight denim jacket, ran to the pile of wooden planks ahead, squatted down and easily lifted a stack of two-meter-high ship planks, and then put the A stack of ship planks was brought to Lu Qi.

Her actions caused quite a commotion in the dock. The shipwrights paused their work and gathered around the two people to watch the fun.

This is exactly what Tasia hopes. After a lot of experience in the army, she deeply understands the bad nature of some men - they always subconsciously label women who look weak and try to use their deep-rooted Stereotypes discourage women.

If she wants to get this job, she must take the lead in seizing the right to speak with a strength that can shock everyone, subvert their stereotypes, and gain the recognition of the pigeon farmer in front of her.

She squatted on the ground and picked up a piece of wood that had not been cut into standard sizes. Without any measuring tools, she quickly cut the board into four even parts. After cutting dozens of pieces of wood in this way, she He picked up an iron bucket at random, broke the bucket into a piece of iron sheet like tearing paper, and wrapped it snugly around a cut wooden board. He also took out a few thumbtacks and embedded them into the iron sheet with his bare hands.

There were bursts of exclamations from the crowd——

"Hey, it's true. With so many planks, a small warship can be built. That woman actually raised it with one hand!"

"Why are you still surprised by that? It's an iron plate! It's iron! How did he press the thumbtack in?"

"Oh my god, are there really no markings on these wooden boards? The size of each piece is exactly the same! And they are all standard sizes for warships!"

"What are you doing here?" A cold female voice interrupted their private discussion. The person who came was dressed like an elite female secretary, wearing a well-fitting yellow suit and uniform, and her long hair was meticulously styled. With her bun in a bun, she stood in the crowd. These rich and powerful men immediately dispersed, for fear that she would write down her fishing behavior in her work notes.

"It's really rude. You're not polite when you see Mr. Espagu." The dignified and serious female secretary reached out to adjust her glasses and complained softly to the man walking slowly behind her.

"Well, forget it, Kalifa, you should relax properly once in a while." The blue-haired man squatted in front of Tasia. She was still cutting the wood board, even faster than the machine.

"Well, your hands are very steady, little girl." He took out a small white squirrel from his pocket. As soon as the red-eyed squirrel landed on the ground, it spontaneously jumped to a wooden board and stretched out its tail. Laying it horizontally on the short side of the board, its tail has a circle of even rings. The length of this side is exactly the length from the fifth ring to the tip of the tail - this is the standard plank of most ships. size.

Espagu raised his eyebrows in surprise. This kind of accuracy is difficult for even most old shipwrights to achieve. He stood up and said seriously, "Little girl, are you here to apply for a job?"

Tasia kept talking for a long time, but the gloomy pigeon-raising man didn't say anything, which made her half-way through pretending to be pretentious. Now someone who seemed to have some status finally spoke, and she quickly dropped the board and jumped up to reply.

"Yes! My name is Cocuani Tasia. I came here today to apply for a job as a ship engineer at Carrera Company!"

"Little girl, ship engineer is not a position that you can apply for." As he said, he pointed to the pigeon farmer standing aside with a straight face, "Lucci and the others also trained for two years before they could be called ship engineers. "

"Then I want to work at the head office of No. 1 Dockyard!" Tasia has been immersed in bloody novels for many years, and she is full of painful stories. "For generations, our family has been doing cleaning work for a large ship group. The ship group The young captain fell in love with me, but my wife said that I was just a handyman and not worthy of the young captain! So I escaped, and I vowed to prove myself by building the largest and best-performing ship in the world with my own hands!"

According to the plot in the novel, she should impress the other person with her weak yet stubborn, sad but hopeful eyes at this time. However, this was too difficult for Tasia to learn. She could only hold her breath and amplify her voice, trying to make her choke.

"Ah, that's right. No wonder you grasp the size of the ship's hull so accurately. Kalifa——"

"Yes, Mr. Espagu." The elite-dressed female secretary's glasses were gleaming, as if she was moved by the story just now. She stepped forward, took out her notebook and introduced skillfully, "Miss Quani, will you start tomorrow?" You can officially come to work at No. 15 Dockyard from the beginning. According to the company's regulations, the company canteen provides three meals a day, and a sumptuous supper will be provided when overtime is needed. Accommodation is provided for migrant workers. Your monthly salary is Bei Here, there is also a subsidy for overtime work.”

"What? Are you asking if you can work part-time? What kind of part-time job is it?"

"Well, there is no problem in theory by helping those in need and receiving a certain level of remuneration, as long as you do not do anything that violates the city's regulations. In addition, in order to quickly integrate you into the island's environment, There will be a banquet held at Dock No. 1 tonight, please be sure to attend.”

Listen to this treatment! In order to maintain her character, Tasia held in her breath until her face turned red, but she was happy in her heart. This job includes room and board, overtime pay, and it doesn’t interfere with your main job as a mercenary. It’s perfect!

So, she signed a contract with Khalifa without any hesitation, and was led by the other party to the staff dormitory to place her luggage - this was strongly requested by Khalifa. This seemingly prim and serious woman was actually overly enthusiastic.

Espagu looked at the two people leaving, touched the little head of the squirrel, and asked doubtfully, "Does our company have a tradition of holding a welcome banquet for new employees?"

"Cuckoo--" The dove on Lu Qi fluttered its wings, and a high-pitched sound like a bird's song came from the man's abdomen, "It must be that Kalifa thinks this girl is too pitiful."

"Well - that's how it should be, hahaha. Kalifa is also a soft-hearted girl."

------

The fate of human beings is so capricious. On opposite ends of the same island, when Tasia was arrogant about her future full of "money opportunities", the long-nosed Usopp was howling at his own incompetence. When night fell, the Straw Hat boy had no choice but to part ways with his former love boat and partners, but Tasia got drunk in the bonfire and singing.

"Come on, come on, sister Tasia! What you showed today is so amazing!"

"Isn't it? We were all stunned. We went back and tried it ourselves secretly, but we were not as accurate as you."

Tasia felt that she was so drunk that she could hardly find her tongue in her upper and lower teeth. She grinned a silly smile and said, "Oh, it's nothing. If you stare at the broken ship for a few months, you can do it too!" "

But everyone here was eating and drinking on the boat, so her words aroused a bit of hatred, and everyone pulled her to start a new round of persuading her to drink.

"You are sexually harassing-" Kalifa pushed her eyes and stood next to Tasia, sweeping away a group of shipwrights who were bragging to Tasia.

"Take a sip to sober up." She leaned down and handed the tea-scented cup to Tasia, who poured it into her stomach without thinking.

"Hiccup - thank you, sister. Eh? This wine, good, so bitter." After saying that, the world in front of him was spinning, and people's cheers seemed to have gone to another world. Instead, the shadows of some monsters and monsters occupied reality. Tasia's arms were messy. After a few waves, he fell into Kalifa's arms.

"Ara, it seems that Miss Tasia is drunk. I'm going to send her back to the dormitory." The female secretary, who kept her hair neatly tied even during off-duty hours, held Tasia's body firmly. She supported Tasia's body. His shoulder tried to wake her up, but his fingers quietly covered her pulse.

Once, twice, three times, it only took a minute for his pulse to go from strong to weak to silent.

So the helpless female secretary showed a secret smile of satisfaction. She effortlessly supported the entire weight of an adult woman with her body, and made a less obvious gesture to the only two sober people in the crowd. , leaving the crowd who got carried away at the banquet.
