Pirates: The first partner is Tom Cat

"I've never heard that the ship spirit can make the ship itself stronger." Franky disagreed with this statement, but he couldn't think of any other reason.

"It doesn't matter, we can just ask when we see the Ship Elf." Zhang Da didn't worry about this too much. He asked, "Anyway, you confirmed that the Amber only needs a simple repair, and there is no big problem, right?

?”

Franky said: "You can rest assured in this regard, but since this ship has such strength, I have some modification suggestions."

Zhang Da also asked: "How to change it?"

French said: "You can add a pair of auxiliary outer wheels and an emergency power device at the stern, which can accelerate the ship in one go. It is very useful for pursuit, escape, and even jumping over obstacles."

"It seems that adding an outer wheel will make it look ugly." The auxiliary outer wheel can indeed be a lot more convenient when the wind is not strong, but Zhang Da also doesn't trust Franky's aesthetics.

"Then make it something that can be freely adjusted and retracted, and can be folded up when not in use." Franky has an immature idea, which is the soldier dock system. Although his current focus is mainly on the robotic arm, this

The design has not yet been completed, but there will be no problem if we just make the outer wheel.

"This sounds very good." Shark Pepper said, "Does the power system refer to the steam engine of the Smokey Tom? That one is too noisy and inconvenient to use."

Franky smiled proudly: "The principle is somewhat similar, but instead of steam power, it is cola power!"

"Coke Power?" Zhang Da was also a little surprised. Franky didn't transform himself, so why did he still come up with Coke Power?

"That's right, my super~ robotic arm uses Coke power. It can't exert its maximum power by itself!" Frankie is very proud of his original Coke power.

"Then add one." Zhang Daye said. Emergency rush is usually handled by Wendy. Zhang Daye's magic has not yet learned the breathing part. Considering that Wendy may be inconvenient, add one.

One is also good for emergencies.

"By the way, how much does it cost?"

"The outer wheel part is easy, but the cost of the power unit is a bit higher. There are a lot of things that need to be prepared temporarily. The material cost will probably be this much." Franky opened his fingers and reported a number that made Zhang Daye feel heartbroken.

Money is a bastard, let’s earn it after we spend it. Zhang Da also gritted his teeth: “Okay!”

Frankie was a little embarrassed. He could not charge for labor, but he had no choice but to pay so much for materials. After all, he had a lot of younger brothers to support at home and couldn't pay for it out of his own pocket.

…

Franky took the material fee, and he needed some time to prepare materials and design drawings. Comprehensive modification and repair would take about two or three days - after all, he didn't need to work around the clock like he did when building the Sonny.

Zhang Daye called his companions for a simple meeting.

"Announcing an important thing, this is all the cash we have in hand, about 200,000 beli." Zhang Daye seriously put a pile on the table, including 10,000 beri's banknotes and 1,000 beri.

loose banknotes, and coins of fifty or one hundred beli.

"After paying the money needed to renovate the Amber, we are so poor that we only have a lot of gold and jewelry left. It's a big financial crisis, comrades!" Zhang Daye looked sad, and those who didn't know thought he couldn't afford to eat.

.

Weiwei immediately raised her hand: "I still have a lot of money in my hand, Karu!"

"Quack!" Karu quickly ran back to Weiwei's room and picked up a box.

It was prepared by Kobra for Weiwei. When she set out, she wanted to give it to Zhang Daye, but Zhang Daye said that he was not short of money and asked her to keep it for herself, but every time she went out to play, he would

They were given pocket money, so Weiwei never touched the money.

Now that Zhang Daye said he was short of money, Weiwei immediately contributed. Not counting that, she took out her small wallet and took out a few more banknotes: "I haven't spent the pocket money that Brother Daye gave me."

over."

Wendy and Xia Lulu each took out a thick wad of banknotes: "We have some here too."

Zhang Da also made a rough estimate and found that the total amount was almost two to three million. He was surprised: "Why so many?"

Xia Lulu said: "Because every time you go to an island, you will give out pocket money, and there is a lot of it, and we haven't spent it all."

Wendy said with some embarrassment: "And brother Tatsuya always gives me the most stuff."

It's natural to give more to Wendy. After all, she is the most well-behaved among the Loli team. Zhang Da is also worried that she doesn't have enough and is too embarrassed to ask for it.

Perona looked through her small purse and found to her embarrassment that she only had a little change.

It's not that Zhang Da also bullies her, but that she spends money almost beyond her imagination. Anyway, if she doesn't have enough, she can borrow it, or she can ask Zhang Da for it again.

Although Zhang Daye said he disliked it, he would still make up some for her in the end. But usually there would be no leftovers.

Ye Yan, Uncle Long and Shark Chili also took out some. Uncle Long had not been here long, and Ye Yan and Shark Chili each had their own expenses, so they didn't have much savings.

Rui Mengmeng, on the other hand, found more Baileys than Wendy.

"Um...I usually spend less money, and every time I go out to buy something, the boss always says he keeps it for himself to buy something...but I don't have anything to buy?" Rui Mengmeng was a little worried, "I...

Isn’t that considered corruption?”

"...It doesn't count." Zhang Da also calmed down, "I originally wanted to take advantage of the few days of repairing the ship to go out and find pirates to make some extra money. After a long time of trouble, I was the only one who didn't have any money.

.”

Arturia said honestly: "Tatsuya, I don't have any money in my hand, not at all."

"I know this." Zhang Daye nodded. When Artoria went out, she usually took Zhang Daye with her, and then Zhang Daye also brought money.

The one who felt the most guilty was Tom. Whenever someone looked at him, he would put his hands behind his back, squint at 45 degrees and whistle softly.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhang Da didn’t even bother to expose Tom. He probably went back and dug into the little nest where Tom usually didn’t sleep, or pulled up the flowers in the flower pots with the soil.

, there will definitely be gains.

"Okay, okay, the economic crisis has been lifted for the time being. I'll take a little from each person, just enough to purchase before going overseas. If I don't buy expensive ingredients, a million will be enough." Zhang Daye said, "The rest is still there.

Keep it to yourself, and pay more attention to pirates and the like these days."

It is obviously not safe to store too many banknotes in Zhang Daye's hands.

"Then let's talk about the Ship Elf." Zhang Daye said, "The so-called Ship Elf is the incarnation of the Amber, and he should be regarded as our companion, but no one has seen him until now, so why don't we find a way to let him

Did he show up?"

Wendy said: "If possible, I would like to meet him."

Wendy heard Zhang Daye say that she was still able to ride the Amber without getting seasick because of the existence of the ship elves, and she wanted to thank him properly.

Ye Yan said: "I'm also a little curious. According to you, the ship elves should be considered a type of fairies. I've never felt the evil spirit before. Maybe I can get some inspiration after seeing them."

Zhang Da also asked: "Don't you want to beat him up and turn him into a flag demon?"

Ye Yan retorted: "How could I be so cruel?"

Zhang Da said disdainfully: "When you first came here, you wanted to kidnap Tom."

Shark Chili said: "If possible, of course I would like to meet him, but didn't we look for him last time? He didn't want to come out, and there was nothing we could do."

"Conventional methods will definitely not work." Zhang Da also hugged Tom and said with a smile, "We can use unconventional methods, such as asking Tom to pierce the deck, mast, etc. with his sword. If they are not kept intact, he will come out as soon as it hurts.

Already."

Rui Mengmeng objected: "Isn't this bad?"

Wendy couldn't bear to say: "If that's the case, why don't we wait until he is willing to meet us?"

Ye Yan seemed to be heartbroken and said: "Mr. Ye, the spirit that was promised will only appear if the crew takes good care of the ship. Wouldn't it hurt your conscience to make such a suggestion?"

Zhang Da also looked at Ye Yan: "It depends on what kind of character he is. If it's you, then there's no sense of guilt in pricking him."

"Unscrupulous capitalist, I doubt that the Ship Elf will be dragged into illegal work by you if he ever comes out."

"No, you are already working illegally."

There was a commotion in the cabin as they were talking, and an eavesdropping statue outside the cabin quietly returned to its place. People's hearts are sinister. If I were the ship spirit, I wouldn't come out.

No, you can't come out even if you're not a ship spirit. Hey, it's better to be an ordinary statue.

The modification work of the Amber went smoothly, and because Espagu came to help during the process, the progress was much faster.

Zhang Daye's various trainings were also progressing in an orderly manner. By the time he set sail, he had successfully hardened his arms and the weapons in his hands with armed colors, and had also mastered a few simple dragon-slaying magics.

There is nothing much to say goodbye to Franky and Espagu. I just wish them success in achieving their goals and ask them to say hello to Mr. Tom and Grandma Cocoro next time they see them.

Tom was a little disappointed not to see the fat fishman and the big frog called Yokozuna, and Zhang Da also didn't expect that the big frog could actually dive 10,000 meters to the fishman island.

…

"Switch the outer wheel!" Zhang Da also pulled the mechanism installed near the rudder.

There was a clicking sound, a cover plate on each side of the Amber was flipped up, and the two outer wheels poked out, half submerged in the water.

A barrel of Coke shook violently in the cabin, and after a series of complex changes, the two outer wheels began to rotate rapidly.

"This is very convenient. You can drive so fast without wind. This speed is almost catching up with modern ships. It feels so unscientific." Shark Chili said, "It's just a bit expensive."

"Using Coke as energy source is ridiculous enough, and achieving such a speed is also very reasonable." Zhang Da has also given up on being serious.

In order to cope with emergencies, Frankie also designed a pedal for the outer wheel. If the Coke is not enough, it can also be driven by human power.

In addition, the emergency power device at the stern is similar. It can consume three large barrels of Coke at one time, allowing the Amber to fly out. At the same time, according to Zhang Daye's requirements, the air nozzle is also designed to disconnect the Coke power and let people blow it.

style.

But now, only Wendy can use this.

Everyone was somewhat curious about the newly added equipment. They all tried stepping on the outer wheel pedal and had a great time.

After two days of sailing, the surrounding fog suddenly became thicker.

Weiwei exclaimed: "I can't see anything!"

"It's almost time to get here." Shark Pepper said, "Slow down, it's better to walk slowly in the Devil's Triangle."

"I'm back here again." Rui Mengmeng said, "It's a pity that Brooke is no longer here."

"Don't make it sound like he is dead." Zhang Da also paused and added, "Although he is indeed dead."

"Huh?" Weiwei suddenly felt that the topic everyone was talking about was so scary, and quickly pulled Wendy to ask who Brooke was.

Perona bit the straw instead of drinking the juice, but blew bubbles in the cup.

Artoria asked: "Want to go back and take a look?"

"There's nothing to see anymore." Perona shook her head slightly.

Zhang Da also said: "You can go if you want. I also said that we will renovate it and treat it as our own territory in the future, but it is not easy to find."

"Hey...that's long! If you don't want to go, you just don't want to go!" After blowing bubbles for a while, she dropped the straw, "I'll go help explore the way!"

With that said, Perona ran to the bow of the ship and released dozens of little ghosts into the thick fog.

The Devil's Triangle is so large that it is not easy to find an island ship. However, for Perona, both exploring the path and finding the ship are much easier than ordinary people.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Dozens of little ghosts are all her eyes, and no matter how far you fly, you don’t have to worry about getting lost. She is the best guide here.

"There is a rock five hundred meters ahead, be careful of hitting it."

"There's a broken ship floating over there!"

"There is a whirlpool at ten o'clock."

Perona warned of various dangers in advance one by one, helping Shark Chili adjust its course.

At a certain moment, a complicated expression appeared on her face. She hesitated before releasing a little ghost: "I want to confirm that direction with my own eyes. Let's see its gestures first!"

The little ghost floated up and down in front of Shark Chili in a cute manner. Shark Chili nodded and said, "Okay, be careful."

"I'll be back soon!" Perona's soul drifted out, even forgetting to let her body sit down first.

Rui Mengmeng quickly caught Perona's body and carried her back to the room.

Shark Chili thought for a while and asked, "Do you want to continue walking?"

Zhang Da also said: "Let's drop the anchor and wait for her. It won't be too late."

…

The terrifying three-masted sailing ship was still drifting slowly on the sea, but as Perona said when she was stubborn, there was nothing to see anymore.

Because of the commotion of the Oz zombies, the main mast has collapsed, the castle is in ruins, and Perona's own room is buried in some rubble.

The bodies of Moria, Absalom and Hogbark had also been collected by people sent by the World Government.

Those zombies that lost their shadows were buried by no one.

Now the entire terrifying three-masted ship is lifeless, and almost no animals can be seen - after all, even the rats were captured by Hogback and transformed into zombies.

Perona floated above the ruins of the castle for a while, then fell down and touched the gravel on the ground, although she couldn't touch anything in her spirit state.

"Go back?" Perona looked around with her hands on her hips, her mouth flattened, and there seemed to be several figures spinning in front of her eyes.

She thought it was Moria or Absalom, but upon closer inspection she saw that it was Tom holding hot cocoa, Wendy looking at her with a smile behind her hands, Xia Lulu who had transformed at her request, and the person on the Amber Ship.

Everyone... and the most annoying black-hearted boss who forced her to memorize the elementary school student code.

"Hmph, it's not particularly annoying." Perona floated up, "I'm going back!"

…

"I'm back!" The figure with long pink ponytails slowly landed on the boat and said disgustedly, "What, it's been so long, why are you still stopping here? Are you lost?"

Zhang Da also exaggeratedly read: "Yes, yes, without Lady Perona's guidance, we have completely lost our way."

Perona stamped her feet. This person was really annoying.
