Chapter 123 Heading to Shampoo
"By the way, Mr. Tom, I have another question that I would like to ask you." Adrian suddenly asked, "Will Alqiman mangrove be a good shipbuilding material?"
As mentioned before, one of Adrian's purposes in coming to the Seven Waters City was to order a good ship at Tom's Studio.
Adrian's original plan was to use Treasure Tree Adam as shipbuilding materials, but the current environment in the Capital of Seven Waters is not easy. Even the top Tom Studio cannot provide enough Treasure Tree Adam to be used as shipbuilders. Material.
If Baoshu Adam must be used as the shipbuilder's material, it is not impossible, but it is estimated that it will have to wait for a long time, at least until the rampant pirate situation around the Seven Waters Capital calms down.
It was not that Adrian couldn't afford to wait, but the newly abducted ship spirit gave him another thought.
Is there any ship spirit in the world that cannot be launched into the water?
But through the confirmation on the panel, Rumi now does have the [Curse of the Sea] specialty.
There is a possibility that something might go wrong with the ship spirit, so we can only find a solution from the shipbuilding materials.
Treasure Tree Adam is one of the most famous ancient trees in the world, also known as the "Strongest Tree". It is almost recognized as the best shipbuilding material on the sea.
But the famous ancient trees are not limited to the Adam tree.
The Argentine mangroves that make up the Shampoo Islands are also one of the world-famous magical ancient trees!
Although I have never heard of anyone using Arqiman mangrove as a shipbuilding material...
But what Adrian values is still the bubbles formed by the expansion of resin secreted by the Yarkman mangrove tree.
The main reason is that this bubble can completely isolate the water source. After some treatment, it can even withstand the extremely high pressure of 10,000 meters of sea water. It is ferocious enough to be called one of pirates' black technologies!
If mangroves are used as shipbuilding materials, wouldn't the new ship become a small "Shampoo Island" floating on the sea?
Bubble car, bubble Ferris wheel, bubble house, bubble teapot...
If you produce for your own use, don’t you get as much as you want?
After hearing Adrian's question, Mr. Tom couldn't help but be stunned.
The old fishman has worked as a shipwright in the Capital of Seven Waters for most of his life. He has seen and heard more new things than he did in half a day today.
"White Ghost, you really asked me a good question! Tahahahaha!" Mr. Tom laughed heartily. "This is the first time in my life that I have encountered such an interesting question! Alchiman How could a mangrove..."
Mr. Tom originally wanted to refute it directly. After all, in the long history of the Seven Waters City, there was no ship made of Alqiman mangrove as the main material.
But when he was about to tell the reason for his rejection, he couldn't help but froze.
Because Mr. Tom couldn't find any convincing reason.
Why can't Alqiman mangrove be used as a shipbuilding material?
In terms of history, the mangrove tree of Archimandria is no less important than the Adam tree, and it is also a magical ancient tree that everyone knows;
In terms of tenacity, the Archipelago mangrove is just a tree root exposed above the sea, supporting the huge Shampoo Islands;
The performance of the wheel, the resin bubbles secreted by the Argine mangrove, has a wide range of uses, completely crushing the ordinary and nothing treasure tree Adam!
It was precisely because of this that Mr. Tom's words stopped abruptly.
Adrian asked: "Mr. Tom, do you have any more questions?"
"No..."
Mr. Tom racked his brains and finally came up with an extremely reluctant reason.
"After all, the treasure tree Adam is still circulating in the market. Even if it is expensive, you can still buy it. But the Alkiman mangroves that support the Chambord Islands have been cut down and destroyed only a handful of times! They are needed for shipbuilding. The amount of wood is huge, and it’s not so easy to get!”
"But, I'm a pirate now, aren't I?" Adrian shrugged indifferently, "For pirates, destroying the Chambord Islands and cutting down the Alqiman mangroves doesn't seem to be a big deal. A crime?”
After hearing this, even Bingshan and Frame, who had remained silent, couldn't help but cast strange glances.
Yes, this matter is really not a big problem for ordinary pirates!
However, you also have to look at the location of the Shampoo Islands!
As we all know, the Chambord Islands are close to the Navy Headquarters!
If someone dares to cause trouble in the Chambord Islands, in less than half an hour, senior generals dispatched by the Navy Headquarters will arrive immediately and lead a large number of Navy elites to suppress the commotion directly on the spot!
But when I think of the seemingly harmless gentleman in front of me, the reward amount has reached [380 million beli]...
Bingshan and Frame couldn't say anything wrong.
The previous chat was too bland, but they subconsciously ignored one thing.
The great pirate White Ghost in front of me is close to 400 million beli. The most famous incident is that he killed eight naval warships at once...
Cutting down some small trees to build a boat doesn't seem like a big deal... right?
Mr. Tom finally had nothing to say.
As a shipbuilder, he would naturally not refuse customers who come to visit custom-made ships, even if they are pirates!
Otherwise, Mr. Tom would not have personally built the One Piece ship Oro Jackson for Gol D. Roger!
Mr. Tom began to carefully consider the idea of building a boat using Alchmangrove as the main material. He walked aside silently, took out a stack of draft paper from the bookshelf, threw it behind his desk and began to write and draw. He will also mutter a word or two under his breath.
Seeing this, Kokoro couldn't help but smile apologetically at Adrian: "Sorry, Mr. Tom has always been like this. Once it comes to ship design issues, he will subconsciously ignore the existence of other people."
Adrian smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I still have plenty of time."
After a long time, Mr. Tom finally looked up from a stack of design sketches and said, "White Ghost, you said that you would use Alqiman mangrove as the material to build the ship. You are not trying to fool me, right?"
Adrian said seriously: "It's absolutely true!"
"That's good!" Mr. Tom nodded, "This is my first time using Alqiman mangrove to repair a ship. There will inevitably be some waste during the shipbuilding process. The Alqiman mangrove material is absolutely indispensable!"< br>
"Although my boat doesn't need to be too big," Adrian stood up and shook Mr. Tom's hand, "but I can guarantee that I will definitely retrieve enough mangrove wood!"
< br>
After preliminary discussions with Mr. Tom about the design of the new ship, Adrian replenished some navigation supplies in the Capital of Seven Waters and set sail again.
