When the mention of shipbuilding came up, the old man in sunglasses and mustache who always couldn't wake up immediately cheered up. He couldn't contain the excitement in his voice and said gushingly: "Guest, about a month after you left, a group of fishmen sent a lot of money.
The wood of "Yangshu Eve" is of the highest quality from Ten Thousand Meters Deep. To be honest, I haven't seen such good materials for decades..."
Luo Jie didn't want to waste time in the technical house's flight, so he interrupted "Bipley Lulu"'s chatter with a slight cough, and asked: "Has the transformation plan been finalized?"
The foreman with sunglasses and a mustache was already prepared and directly pulled out a drawing and spread it on the workbench.
"According to your request, we have reduced the length of the ship from the original 70 meters to 50 meters, reduced the number of crew living rooms, increased warehouses and various functional areas, and added a fully automatic sail control system, which requires only five people at least.
You can start the boat..."
Luo Jie nodded while listening. These transformation requirements were all mentioned by name, not only for this "One Piece" world, but also to prepare plans in advance for similar nautical worlds in the future.
"I won't go into detailed data. Let's just talk about the advantages and disadvantages of this ship."
"The advantages and disadvantages of this boat are obvious - the advantage is that because it uses "Yangshu·Eve" as the main material, the living comfort will be very high, and "Yangshu·Eve" has the characteristics of exuding resin when it encounters water, which will
It reduces the seawater resistance, greatly increases the speed, and also makes the ship's sealing performance very good."
"The disadvantage is that the wood of "Yang Tree Eve" is lighter, and its strength is only equivalent to ordinary top-grade wood, far less than "Treasure Tree Adam". It cannot withstand high-intensity shelling or impacts of the same intensity. Once it is collected
A fire siege would be very dangerous."
Luo Jie gently rubbed his chin.
Although the world of "One Piece" is mostly dominated by boarding battles, the threat of bombardment cannot be ignored, especially the naval force, which basically uses large-caliber artillery to hit the face, and the game is just a fire suppression, which is slightly worse than the pirates
The ship didn't even have a chance to engage in a broadside battle.
"Can you add a layer of external armor?"
The foreman with sunglasses and a mustache frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head and said: "To achieve the effect of defending against shelling, with the current smelting technology, the external armor must be made very thick. For a ship hundreds of meters long, it is not a problem. After all, it is large
Ships do not pursue speed, but for small and medium-sized ships like yours, sacrificing speed to increase defense would be a bit of a sacrifice."
"Isn't it possible to use "Wapol alloy"? Money is not an issue."
"Wapol alloy" is a special memory alloy in the world of "One Piece". Apart from being expensive, it has almost no shortcomings. The battle robot "General Franky" of the "Straw Hat Pirates" is made of this alloy.
Luo Jie still has a large amount of treasure brought back from the "Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss", and it is estimated that there will be no problem in selling it for 100 to 200 million beli.
"'Wapol alloy'? What is that? Is there such a metal?" The foreman in sunglasses and mustache looked confused.
"Hmm... maybe I remembered it wrong."
Luo Jie then remembered that the timeline was wrong.
"Wapol Alloy" is a formula accidentally discovered by "Wapol", the king of the Iron Bucket Kingdom on Drum Island, and the fruit-swallowing ability user "Wapol" while eating garbage while wandering after being defeated by "Luffy". From then on, he became rich overnight.
, marry Bai Fumei and return to the peak of life.
In other words, if you want to obtain "Wapol Alloy", you will have to wait at least ten years.
…
Perhaps the quality of the materials provided was too high, or perhaps the foreman in sunglasses and mustache pursued the spirit of craftsmanship too much. Although Luo Jie later added nearly 50 million additional overtime expenses on top of the 100 million beli, for [Flying]
The renovation progress of Mikawa Maru is still very slow.
In order to pass the time and make some extra money, Luo Jie simply played a guest role as a bounty hunter, and would stay in the nearby waters from time to time to ambush small pirate groups who came to the Water City to repair their ships.
Although they are all popular characters who can move in seconds, the biggest feature of the pirate world is that until you count the loot, you never know what these little minions dressed like beggars may be hiding.
Something even the captain doesn't know about.
For example - "Devil Fruit".
Yes, Luo Jie actually found a "Devil Fruit" on a pirate gangster who was fighting against the Five Scums. God knows why this guy kept carrying this thing but didn't eat it himself.
But soon he knew the reason.
【Devil Fruit·Everyone Fruit】
That's right, it's the one that's known as one of the most ridiculous fruits. The straw hat pirates' ship's doctor, the blue-nosed reindeer "Chopper" eats it, and the effect is that he can turn into a human.
As we all know, there are no duplicate Devil Fruits, so this one is not the one of "Chopper", but another system original fruit that has never appeared in the original "One Piece".
[Devil Fruit·Everyone Fruit·Female Form]
The only effect of eating this devil fruit is to turn into a woman, and it will also lose the most important life-saving ability of a pirate - swimming. It is reasonable that this fruit is not welcomed by pirates.
.
Of course, the location of this fruit is awkward in the world of "One Piece", but it is still of some use to players.
Such as those unlucky ones who lost their human form due to some curse or bloodline.
Although you will lose your ability to swim permanently, it is better than becoming a monster.
There are also some guys with a curious mind who will feed this animal-type fruit to their own weapons.
Luo Jie first knew about this [Everyone Fruit·Female Form] in his previous life because he once saw a certain black uncle covered in oil wielding a fruit girl in a fight. The scene was simply eye-catching.
In short, this fruit is definitely useless to Luo Jie. After sighing for a while about this weird luck, he threw this nonsense [Devil Fruit·Human Fruit·Female Form] into the storage space
.
…
For the eleventh month of his stay in the Water Capital, Luo Jie finally received news from the foreman with a mustache and sunglasses - the ship had been built.
It's nonsense to say he was excited. He just let out a sigh of relief and then took "Red Silk" to the dock to receive the new ship.
As soon as I entered the shipyard gate, I saw a large three-masted sailing ship with a pure white background and gold decoration on the sides and masts quietly moored in the No. 1 dock.
The mustachioed foreman "Bipley Lulu" came up quickly and handed a document to Luo Jie's hand. He rarely showed his usual lethargy, and his face was filled with pride.
"Mr. Nightmare, as usual, you need to rename this ship - please believe me, I guarantee with my career as a shipwright that this is definitely a good ship comparable to the "Auro Jackson".
