Chapter 210: The Shipbuilder of the Water City
...
"Heiheihei, Captain, where are we going next?"
Moriah walked over with his hands in his pockets and asked.
"Let's go to the Seven Water Capital to change boats first. By the way, everyone!"
Hearing the captain's call, everyone looked over.
Gel stopped clapping and said:
"We need to repair this pirate ship. The main body has been broken. Captain, I am not short of money, so it is time to get a new ship. The next stop is the Seven Waters City, which has the world's top shipbuilders. So if you have any requirements for the new ship, you can tell us and we will arrange it when the designer draws the blueprints."
"Great. Then I want a spacious and bright infirmary. All my medical equipment is still in your sleeves and I have nowhere to put it. It would be best if it could be connected to a smaller room to store and prepare various medicines."
Kurokas said, stroking his beard.
"Dark, I hope the bathroom can be bigger, and all the doors on the ship can be bigger! My room can be darker."
Moria suggested, rubbing his chin.
"No problem. How about this, Funi, please help collect everyone's opinions."
"Okay Captain."
Funi held the book, tucked a strand of her stray bangs behind her ear, and stood up to answer.
...
A week later
City of Seven Waters
The sea area near the wreckage island is filled with shipwrecks.
A small boat was speeding across the sea, occasionally briefly jumping out of the water like a stone skipping stone.
A string of English words and a big Arabic numeral "8" were written in red paint on the sail.
"Crash!"
A small centipede-shaped sea monster rushed out of the water, blocking the sun and pounced on the boat.
“Ahhhh! It’s over, I’m going to be eaten!”
On the boat, a boy of about twelve or thirteen years old, wearing briefs, a floral shirt and sky-blue hair, was shouting in panic.
But his hands were not flustered. He steadily controlled the steering wheel with his right hand and his left hand was on the joystick that controlled several small cannons at the stern.
"Monster! Watch your moves!"
While the monster was looking up, the boy quickly pulled down the joystick.
"Boom boom boom!"
Unexpectedly, the row of things that looked like exhaust pipes at the stern turned out to be cannons. A round of artillery fire was so powerful that several shells accurately hit the huge body of the centipede monster.
Unfortunately, before the young man could be happy, the centipede monster rushed out of the smoke unharmed and bit towards him even more angrily.
"It's over!"
Boom!
The small boat accelerated and narrowly avoided the attack. The centipede monster dived into the water, and the huge waves splashed up and directly knocked the small boat away.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
"Hey, get out of the way! Iceberg!"
On the shore, a handsome young man with dark blue hair and a white headscarf, who was a few years older, turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw a pile of broken wood and a figure passing over his head. Before he could figure out the situation, the ferocious centipede-shaped sea king had already pounced on him with its bloody mouth wide open. The young man did not hesitate, and ran away, leaving behind the few usable wooden boards he had collected with great difficulty.
"Boom!"
The centipede monster hit its head on the ground with a loud noise. After it stood up, it shook its dizzy head. Seeing that its target had escaped to the land, it could only retreat angrily.
I thought to myself that I would make this damn kid pay the price next time I met him!
"Ahhh! What the hell are you doing again, Franky!"
Almost being killed by the sea king, the iceberg crawled up from the ground and punched Franky on the head, cursing angrily.
"Asshole! It would be fine if you didn't help, but you're always messing around with these dangerous things!"
Franky rubbed his head and shouted unconvincedly:
"Stop making so much noise. What's your business, you idiot? It's not dangerous. This is the [Franky Battleship No. 8] that I developed!"
"Baga, I don't want to know their names. You'd better destroy all these dangerous toys before they hurt anyone else!"
"Stupid Shan, I won't listen to you. This is an unattended wreck island. It's my freedom to assemble anything I want! Just wait and see. Next time I will definitely build a battleship that can defeat the Sea Kings! Then the cargo ships of Water City won't have to worry about being attacked by the Sea Kings!"
"Stop daydreaming, you're such an idiot, I think you'd better get eaten by a sea king as soon as possible! So as to avoid making trouble for me!"
"Iceberg bastard, I'm sure I can do it!!"
Neither of them could convince the other, and they started arguing fiercely as usual.
...
"A man should give his all even when he is working!"
Just as the two of them were arguing fiercely, they suddenly heard a rough and heroic voice humming a strange song of its own composition.
The two stopped arguing, turned around and looked, but were almost shocked.
I saw a tall man with an upper body like a balloon and two chopstick legs in the lower body. He was holding a large ship with one hand, and his other hand was holding three masts. Then, the man shouted and threw the entire ship into the sky, and then threw the three masts in his hand out at the same time like throwing javelins.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The three masts hit the three holes reserved for them on the ship with incredible accuracy! The ship also landed steadily on the sea after flipping several times.
Franky and Iceberg were both stunned by the man's actions. They secretly sighed in their hearts that he was worthy of being called Mr. Tom. They were still far from his level of skills.
"Uh, hahahaha! The new ship launching ceremony is complete! Another great ship is finished! That's awesome! Right Yokozuna?"
The man was about 3 meters tall, with yellow skin, straight eyebrows, two small pointed horns on his forehead above the ends of his eyebrows, and a thick gray-white beard on his overbite chin.
The person who came was Tom, the fishman who was known as the world's number one shipbuilder!
Tom clapped his hands and laughed heartily, then lowered his head and asked a big frog beside him that looked somewhat like him.
"Yo yo!"
The giant frog called Yokozuna croaked in response.
"Let's do the rest of the finishing work tomorrow. It's time to go back and eat. I'm a little hungry, and I don't know what delicious food there is today."
"Yo yo!"
After the man said this, he turned around and walked back after asking and answering questions with the frog.
"Ah, wait for us, Mr. Tom!!"
Franky and Iceberg, who were in a daze, finally came to their senses and hurriedly chased after him.
