"Then...what the hell is that..." Chopper opened his mouth wide.He was originally a reindeer and never had much contact with humans.

Later, he joined the Straw Hat Pirates and was mostly active in the sea. The entire great route only came into contact with the Red Earth Continent at the beginning and end, so he has not seen much human "infrastructure".

"Hey, there's someone coming out!" Zoro pointed at the station, of course.

"Hi~ Oh, I said why did I hear voices, so someone came." A short and fat aunt and a quirky little girl came out.

"Hello, hello! My name is Timni! This is Kunbe, and Grandma Ke Keluo!" The little girl was very enthusiastic.But that's exactly what made the Straw Hat Pirates feel a little relieved.

"My name is Luffy! I'm the man who is going to be the One Piece!" Luffy puffed up his chest.

Granny Ke Keluo laughed loudly, and dropped the wine bottle in her hand to the ground. "Little devil, you guys are not joking!"

"Of course not!" Luffy frowned displeased.

"Hahahahaha!" Unexpectedly, when Luffy said this, Grandma Ke Keluo laughed even louder.

"Your name is Timney, right?" Nami has been very concerned about the thing she saw just now: "The one that just passed by is a new type of steamship?"

"That, hehe! You have never seen such a thing before, it is unique in the world!"

Timney looked rather proud: "It's called 'Smoky Tom' and it's a sea train!"

"It uses a steam engine to propel it along the track laid in the sea. The speed is very fast!"

Nami blinked again and again: "Timny knows a lot! But... what about that track?"

Timney ran to the shore: "Look... it's not too deep under the sea, and the sea train goes back and forth on it every day, and some passenger cars also transport goods..."

"Wow! There is really a track!" Luffy and the others also saw the track under the sea at this time.

"By the way! Do you know what happened to that frog?" Luffy suddenly remembered the bizarre things he saw before.

"Ah...you mean 'yokozuna'..." Timney said, "Actually, it can be said to be the troublemaker of our marine mobile station. It likes to compare strength with other people, and even wants to beat the sea train!"

"Huh? Does he do this often?" Even Luffy opened his mouth wide in surprise.

"Yeah!" Timney nodded, "The impact of the train just now can't kill it. It will always come."

At this time, Usopp and the others had already talked with Granny Kokoro for a while: "Luffy! Luffy! This mother-in-law knows where there is a top ship repair factory!!"

"Ah?! Really?!" Luffy cheered up.Their most urgent task is to repair the Golden Merry.However, they have not yet found the right place.Now there are finally some clues.

"Hmm..." Granny Ke Keluo nodded, "That's right, a city on the sea called the 'Capital of the Seven Waters'. The sea train you saw just now departed from the City of the Seven Waters. They came here. By the way, their city started from the shipbuilding industry. If you are looking for a place to repair ships, you can definitely go to the capital of seven waters!"

Luffy immediately beamed with joy: "Okay! Then it's decided, let's go there now! This time, I must find a shipbuilder to be our partner!"

"That's right, since you have decided to go to the capital of seven waters, then take this."

Granny Ke Keluo took out a letter. "This is a rough map of the capital of seven waters, um, and a letter of introduction from me. Give this to the largest shipyard there and find a guy named Bingshan. They will help you repair the ship properly!"

……

"This... is this the capital of the seven waters?!" Everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates was shocked when they saw this bustling city built on the sea.

Even though they have already been to such a big country as Alabasta, and even visited the empty island in the sky, for them, a magical city like the City of Seven Waters, which is almost integrated with the surrounding ocean, is It may also become an unforgettable memory.

The degree of close connection between the capital of seven waters and the surrounding ocean is beyond imagination, no wonder it is called "City of Water"!
Even among the island countries with countless great routes, this city is the most distinctive.

As Granny Ke Keluo said before, the capital of seven waters has always been famous for its superb shipbuilding industry and great shipping routes.

Even the World Government and the Navy Headquarters have signed many contracts with their city, requiring them to help repair and manufacture ships.

Of course, in this "Era of Great Pirates", the capital of seven waters will also earn money from those pirates without any psychological burden.

However, if the service object is a pirate, even if there is a job that needs to be handled by these large and small shipyards in the capital of seven waters, they will not go to the right door openly.

When Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates waved the pirate flag and wanted to pass through the main gate, they were stopped by the residents of the Water City:
"You pirates should keep a low profile, go to the back! Dock over there, and they can repair your boat. If you go through the main entrance, it will inevitably cause panic."

Luffy and the others are also considered to be good at what they do.

After all, with the current state of the Golden Merry, it needs to be repaired as soon as possible. If there is any accident or even a battle, it will be really bad.

The reason why they dared to take on the work of the pirates was that apart from the fact that the Water Capital was backed by an official force like the Navy Headquarters of the World Government, their own defenses were not covered!
In this age of pirates, if you don't have a little strength to protect yourself, no matter whether it's shipbuilding or ordinary peaceful life, it's just a dream.

Fortunately, Luffy and the others are not the kind of bastard pirates who steal and plunder. I'm afraid they won't have the chance to see those irascible craftsmen here in the water capital.

……

"Let's dock here first!" After mooring the Golden Merry on the shore, Luffy and the others decided to go to the special island first.

Anyway, not only does it take time to repair the ship, but it also takes seven days for the navigation pointer to record the coordinates of an island on this island.

The prices in the capital of seven waters are not low. Theoretically, the Straw Hat Pirates in normal times would never be able to support their consumption here.

But who made them gain a lot of wealth on Sky Island not long ago!
