Pirate: My partner is too crooked

Chapter 184 Mr. Tom
After Miao Miao's modification and enhancement, the current sailing speed of Infinite Dream is far faster than that of ordinary sailboats.

So early the next morning, a water city island surrounded by clear water and full of dreamy colors appeared in front of everyone.

Even in the Grand Line, it is an island with great characteristics. The Capital of Seven Waters has arrived!
On the deck of Infinite Dream, Lin Zhi stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the impressive island in the distance.

The duel between Luffy and Usopp, the highly visual effect of Marine Six, the touching past of underwear pervert Franky and Mr. Tom, Robin's self-sacrifice, and even the subsequent passionate Judiciary Island and farewell to the Merry Large-scale tear-jerking scenes are closely related to the City of Seven Waters.

Passionate and touching, funny and affectionate at the same time, this is his favorite chapter of the original novel, bar none!

Unfortunately, at this time, it seems that the sea train has not yet been completed.

Looking at the empty sea in the Capital of Seven Waters, Lin Zhi couldn't help but let out a sigh full of regret.

But in other words, the pirate ship that built Roger the Pirate King, Tom the Horned Fishman, the world's best shipbuilder, has not yet been sentenced to death by the world government.

This is good news.

"Wow! It looks like a great island. You can see clear water everywhere!"

Lin Zhi's thoughts were interrupted by exclamations of joy. Next to him, Aqua looked at the Seven Capitals of Water with excitement on her face.

To the idiot goddess, this prosperous city built on the water is almost the same as the love island in her dreams.

"Is this the place where the so-called ancient weapon Pluto was produced? It seems worth a visit, nya."

The meow lying on the bow of the ship's eyes flickered, becoming very interested in this famous weapon.

If you can get some of the technology, it will definitely be great to use on second-generation machines!
"Islands full of water are incredible."

Kangna, who was not tall enough, grabbed the railing with both hands, and her little fat legs wearing long white socks were swinging in the air, with only one head sticking out.

"Strange, is this the Capital of Seven Waters? Why is it completely different from what I remember in my mind? Even though I am just a deputy skeleton and have no brain, yo hoo hoo hoo~"

Brooke's bad jokes are still very stable.

Speaking of the Seven Waters Capital, he was very impressed.

After all, in a sense, this is the final island that the Lumba Pirates have ever visited.

It was from here that they set sail, passed through the Devil's Triangle, and were all killed after encountering a powerful enemy!
"...The Seven Waters Capital in your memory must have been more than 50 years ago." Lin Zhi complained silently.

Everyone in the restaurant on the sea was looking forward to the next visit to the Seven Waters Capital. Only King stayed alone in the corner and silently played with iron.

After unremitting efforts, he broke through his limit again and was able to swing the [-] kilogram dumbbell with great force!

After all, he came from the one-punch world where monsters roamed everywhere. This growth rate is quite astonishing.

Although in the world of pirates, a hand with a strength of [-] kilograms cannot even carry some heavy swords...

With different moods, the Infinite Dream sailed through the waves and slowly docked at Port No. [-] in the Capital of Seven Waters.

After submitting the corresponding management fees to the port administrator, Lin Zhi and his party set foot on this dreamy water city.

Although with the Infinite Dream around, it was only a matter of time before their identities were revealed, but in order to minimize trouble, the people who were being rewarded still wore masks that concealed their faces.

After all, the so-called "crime" they committed was to kill the Celestial Dragons and challenge the authority of the world government, which was more serious than burning, killing and looting pirates.

Once exposed on the island, what you need to face is not just bounty hunters and ordinary navy!
"Huh? Are you kidding me, Lin Zhi, I am the goddess of water, the goddess of water! How could I do such a sneaky and shameful thing!"

Miao Miao and King were fine, but they were arrogant, domineering, arrogant and narcissistic idiot goddesses, and they strongly protested against this.

"I'll give you one hundred thousand beli pocket money." Lin Zhi slowly raised a finger.

"This is not a matter of money. Wearing such a broken mask, where should I put my face as a goddess!"

Aqua was rarely interested in money.

"20." Another finger popped out of Lin Zhi's clenched fist.

"Haha, I think you must have misunderstood something. As you said, I am not the kind of vulgar goddess who only sees money!"

This time, Aqua's blue eyes blinked, and she obviously hesitated for two and a half seconds.

"50."

Lin Zhi simply spread out his entire palm and said coldly, "If this still doesn't work, then just stay on the boat and wait until we find a suitable shipwright."

"Hehe, you can see that God is quite accurate."

Aqua, who wanted to make more money, took the mask with a smile and put it on her face in seconds.

You're a demo, I won't take advantage of you casually!
The corners of Lin Zhi's mouth rose, revealing a smile that showed success.

Knowing Aqua's ability to cause trouble, he wouldn't dare to leave this guy alone to guard the ship. God knows what trouble Aqua will cause during his absence.

It would be safer to keep it within sight.

Rented from the port administrator, the vehicle "Blue" used for water transportation, the group of people, guided by the manatee fish, officially entered the bustling capital of the Seven Waters.

After a brief tour, Lin Zhi obtained the location of Shipyard No. [-] where Tom, the shipbuilder, was located from local residents.

This is a large shipyard built on flat land. As you look around, you can see a variety of professional shipbuilding machinery, as well as shipwright foremen who are constantly busy on it.

Parking Bulu beside the city canal, Lin Zhi led his friends to the entrance of this prestigious shipyard.

Before they could walk in, an elderly woman wearing a unique high hat and long light green fluffy hair came over.

Lin Zhi instantly recognized the person's identity from that distinctive "flowery face and moonlike appearance".

The stationmaster of the future sea train station, the white fish mermaid tribe, Granny Cocoluo.

Although she turned out to be a super beautiful mermaid, Granny Cocoluo at this time is not much different from her ten years later. She wears pink love lipstick, carries a red wine bottle in her hand, has a bloated body, and has a wrinkled face.

As for her granddaughter Qimone, who is always with her, and her pet rabbit Kunbei, they are probably not born yet.

"Strange travelers from the open sea, what business do you have at Tom's shipyard?"

Granny Cocoluo grinned and filled a sip of red wine, looked at the clothes of the masked Lin Zhi and others, and asked in a vague tone.

Just when Lin Zhigang wanted to ask Mr. Tom, Brooke took a step ahead and walked towards Granny Cocoluo with firm steps.

"Hey, are you okay?" The expressionless king's pupils shrank.

Even though he had probably guessed the outcome, it was still incredibly intense. "It's impossible, someone of that level is too..." Even the unscrupulous Aqua was in a daze.

However, what was supposed to happen eventually happened.

I saw Brooke stopping in front of Grandma Cocoluo, doing a very gentlemanly courtesy, then raising his head, staring at her with empty eyes, "This beautiful lady, let me see your fat..."

"Look at you! No matter how perverted you are, you have to have a limit, nya!"

Meow Meow, who really couldn't see, appeared behind Brooke, with a mouth full of serrated teeth, and directly pressed a paw on Brooke's head.

A big red bump immediately grew out of the skull's head.

"Ahaha, strange little guy, did you just want to see my fatness? It seems that the skull mask gave you quite a lot of courage."

Grandma Cocoluo didn't pay attention at all after drinking the red wine. Instead, she burst into hearty laughter.

"No, even though I look like a skeleton, I'm actually a skeleton."

Brooke pressed down the red envelope on her head and retorted seriously, "Also, don't look at me like this. In fact, I am already over 80 years old, yo hoo hoo~"

It seemed that she was a little drunk. Granny Cocoluo ignored Brooke's words and sighed with nostalgia on her face.

"What you said really reminds me of a pretty good time. Don't look at me like this. When I was young, I was a very popular beauty. At that time, my suitors were almost queuing up in Fishman Street."

"But they are not as bold as you, like the first suitor."

Not eldest sister, you are probably going a bit far...

Lin Zhi was speechless and held his head. He really didn't expect that things would unfold like this when he first came to the shipyard.

Kang Na, who was following him, glanced at him, blinked her delicate pupils, put her little hand on her forehead, and imitated his movements.

Seeing that Granny Cocoluo had already mentioned her third suitor, Lin Zhi hurriedly interrupted: "She is such an old lady. We want to ask Mr. Tom to help us renovate the ship. Do you know where he is now?"

After hearing Mr. Tom, Granny Cocoluo finally came back to her senses from the good memories.

"Mr. Tom, I'm sorry, I'm just a bad old woman with nothing to do. I don't know where he will be."

Because of his reputation as the world's best shipbuilder, people from overseas come to Mr. Tom for shipbuilding and repair almost every day.

But Mr. Tom is currently busy with the construction of the sea train, how can he be disturbed by these insignificant things?

Helping Mr. Tom refuse all kinds of trivial matters, this is the purpose of Granny Cocoluo hanging around the door of the shipyard when she has nothing to do.

'Come on, as someone who once served as Tom's studio secretary, don't you know where Tom is? '

Lin Zhi, who knew Granny Cocoluo's background, thought to himself, while on the surface he held out two fingers calmly: "Our budget is [-] million."

"How much?" Granny Cocoluo silently put away the red wine bottle.

"Two hundred million Baileys."

"Here please, Mr. Tom has been waiting for you in the studio inside for a long time."

Grandma Cocoluo's face changed instantly and she enthusiastically walked ahead to lead the way.

Building a sea train is a very long and expensive task. It is just a waste of time to do it in a small way, but if the number is [-] million, that is a different matter!
"She is really a snobbish woman who values ​​money, Meow." Meow who followed behind muttered in a low voice.

Shhhhhhh.

As soon as the words were spoken, Aqua, who was obviously self-aware, turned her head, pouted, and whistled pretending not to hear.

After more than ten seconds, feeling that she had nothing to do, she looked away again, pointed to Grandma Cocoluo in front of her, and seriously corrected her: "Meow meow, this guy is not a human being."

"Meow?" Meow looked at Granny Kokoluo for a long time and let out a confused sound.

Two hands, two feet and one head, what is this not a human being?
"Although I don't know the specific reason, she is definitely not human." Aqua said firmly.

Hearing this, even King and Brooke looked at Granny Cocoluo's back curiously.

Then, the back figure with a considerable horizontal area slowly stopped.

"Huh? Did I forget to say that just now? The little girl is right, I am indeed not a human being, but a white fish mermaid." Granny Cocoluo turned around and explained on her own initiative.

Although she was answering Miaomiao's doubts, her uninspired eyes were looking at Aqua.

It was obvious that the other party was wearing a mask at this time, and it was obviously the first time they met, but for some reason, she clearly felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy with this blue-haired girl.

There is always a feeling of comfort and ease as when the tail fin was not separated into legs, and it was free to swim on the bottom of the sea.

This cordial feeling from the heart is one of the reasons why Grandma Cocoluo decided to lead the way.

Money is important, but she can't just let a stranger meet Mr. Tom!
Just like the mermaid who was sold as a slave in the Shampoo Islands before, Granny Cocoluo probably would never have imagined that standing behind her at this moment was the serious goddess of water and symbol of the sea!
Whether a mermaid or a fishman, the closeness to Aqua is almost an innate instinct!
"Huh?!!"

Brooke and Miaomiao were stunned by Granny Kokoro's unconventional words.

Meowth and King, who had already seen the mermaid in Shampoo Land, were fine. Brooke, who had not yet arrived at Fish-Man Island, felt that the beautiful image of mermaids in his heart was completely shattered.

"Hey Xiaolin, do mermaids all look like this?"

Even Kangna couldn't help but ask.

From this we can see how lethal the fact that Granny Cocoluo is a mermaid is.

"No, look at her. She has already grown two legs. She has been excluded from the realm of mermaids long ago." Lin Zhi touched Kang Na's little head.

"Hey! You are such a presumptuous young man, and I'm still here listening!" Granny Cocoluo's face was full of black lines.

How can anyone teach a child like this? What if the child is taught a bad lesson?
I wonder what kind of wonderful expression she would have if she knew that the child in her eyes was actually over 4000 years old.

Although there were a few twists and turns in the middle, the conversation between everyone and Grandma Cocoluo was completely open.

During this period, they also met Barry, the shipbuilder foreman who used rope as a weapon.

This guy was chased to the shipyard by his creditor because he was gambling and counting money.

Talking and laughing all the way, Lin Zhi soon met the world's number one shipbuilder in today's era in a studio filled with drafts of design documents.

Horn fish man, Mr. Tom!
