Chapter 230 Big Frog, Sea Train
Chapter 230 Big Frog, Sea Train
On the vast ocean, the Golden Merry breaks through the waves, pulled by a panting, hard-working manatee.
"Why! Why just when we are about to leave!"
"Targeting! They are all targeting me!" The person who spoke was Qi Kang.
It turned out that just when they were about to leave Long Chain Island, the king of the island's offshore appeared!
Qi Kang estimated that this king of the coastal sea had a physique of at least 20 "strong contracts", which was why he was rushing to the ground with his head at this moment.
Even when he was escaping, he was still using the dragon-slaying tail-wagging posture!
and so……
Qi Kang cut off a tail with tears in his eyes.
"Huh! Moo... Moo..." (How long will this last... I still have Nami's letter here...) Moo let out a tired gasp.
Just at this moment, Nami and Chopper came out of the cabin, and Nami said with some distress:
"We're already far away from Long Chain Island, out in the ocean. That guy shouldn't be able to catch up with us, right?!"
"What nonsense are you talking about! Our opponent is a marine admiral! Go at full speed! Moo, keep accelerating!" Usopp immediately retorted. As timid as he was, he didn't dare to slack off at all.
Doctor Chopper: "Captain Usopp! All the wounded have been treated! The doctor's advice is: rest for a few more days."
Usopp looked very proud, it was finally his turn to be the captain.
"Well done! Corporal Chopper! This is your badge of honor!"
"Roar!" Chopper roared excitedly.
Two happy fools.
This is what is called - no monkeys on the boat, long noses are king.
"Go! The ultimate fast fishing rod!" Qi Kang, who became more and more courageous, threw out the fishing rod.
Soon, all the patients in the cabin came out, which also meant the end of Usopp's career as captain.
"Sanji, I'm hungry, I want to eat meat!"
"Meat? That depends on what ingredients the fisherman has."
"Nami, buy some wine!"
"Your sincere favor is 5 million Baileys."
"The doctor's advice is to rest! Go back quickly! Go back quickly!" Usopp still wanted to save his position as captain.
"Idiot! Why are you all coming out!!" Dr. Chopper was angry.
Of course, Chopper and Usopp are of no deterrent power to these inhuman guys.
"Haha!" Looking at the warm scene in front of him, Robin chuckled while standing at the door of the cabin on the second floor.
Chopper saw Robin coming out, "Robin, you need to rest too! Go back now!!"
Robin smiled gently in response, "Thank you, Dr. Chopper, for your amazing healing skills. I feel like I'm fine now."
"Doctor? Hate it! I won't be happy even if you say that."
Although Chopper said this, he was ecstatic in his heart, spinning like a happy top.
He brought over a beach chair and motioned for Robin to lie down next to him and have a good rest (and enjoy the praise).
The Straw Hat Pirates, who had just escaped from the crisis, were once again at peace...
Days like this are great!
Sanji dragged the monster's tail and appeared beside Robin in an instant, "Sister Robin! What do you want to eat? I can make you something to warm your body."
"Hmm? Then give me a cup of coffee first." Robin thought about it and did not refuse Sanji's kindness.
Sanji danced happily, "I'd love to."
At this time, Luffy shouted again: "Sanji! Remember! I want to eat a lot of meat! Honey-grilled meat! Fried skewers..."
Sanji turned his head, his expression becoming dull: "Oh."
----
On the deck, everyone sat together and enjoyed the food.
Luffy chewed it with big mouthfuls and exclaimed: "What kind of meat is this? It's so delicious!"
Usopp opened his mouth and said, "This is the meat of a monster. It is a hundred meters long. I killed it just when we were leaving the island."
puff!
When Qi Kang heard this, he fell to the ground, filled with sorrow.
Chopper's eyes widened in surprise: "One hundred meters? That's amazing! Usopp!"
Usopp was very proud: "Of course! Chopper, this is just a piece of cake for me, you know who I am!"
Chopper said seriously: "Of course... Captain Usopp!"
"That's right!! It's Captain Usopp!" Usopp just said this - "bang", after a puff of smoke, Merry's speed dropped sharply.
Luffy was confused: "Hey! Moo is gone!"
Zoro complained: "Can't it stand Usopp's lies?"
Only Qi Kang knew the whole story - after running for half a day, Moo Moo was so tired that he forced himself to cancel the "spiritual magic"...
Really, it’s just the cow that died of exhaustion!
Moo: I'm never fucking coming again!
"It happened!"
At this moment, Nami slapped her head, suddenly remembered something, and quickly took out the pointer.
She was so busy running that she forgot to adjust her course! !
Direction - deviated.
----
Five days later.
The sea breeze is blowing on your face, the sun is shining, and you can go fishing when you have nothing to do. This is truly a life like in heaven.
Qi Kang in the fishing nest enjoys this kind of life very much, but the beautiful time is always short.
For example, the big frog with a strength of "5" that Qi Kang caught now is reminding him that the Seven Water Capital is approaching.
"Ah!! Qi Kang! Why did you throw away this frog that can swim freely!!!"
Seeing Luffy's dissatisfaction, Qi Kang made up a random excuse: "Frogs are beneficial creatures..."
???
Willful Luffy: "Turn the rudder! I want to catch that frog and roast it!"
Qi Kang complained: "Haha! It's still unclear who will eat whom."
As Mary accelerated, a lighthouse appeared on the sea.
"Hmm? There's a lighthouse ahead!" Nami raised the telescope and was full of confusion, "How could there be a lighthouse in a place like that? Is there anyone there?"
"The frog is also heading towards the lighthouse," Robin reminded.
Saikan suddenly retracted his fishing rod and shouted, "Luffy, we better slow down!"
"Huh? Why? I still have to chase that frog!"
"That's easy, because the Sea Train is coming!"
???
Wuwuwu——
Just as the Merry was slowly slowing down, a long train came speeding across the sea, leaving the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates stunned.
"The frog was... knocked away!!"
As the name suggests, the Sea Train is a train that travels on the sea. It is a train that travels along the sea rails laid between the Seven Water Capital and other surrounding islands.
"The ship is smoking?!" everyone was puzzled.
"It's not scientific at all for such a long ship to be sailing on the sea!" said Nami.
Qi Kang: ...You're talking about science in the pirate world? And this isn't a ship, okay?
Qi Kang didn't know how to explain this thing in front of him to these country bumpkins.
This is a rare and relatively normal technological product in this era of navigation.
This is the first industrial product - the steam locomotive!
But the sea...
Normal! It's already normal!
"This is a large-scale transportation vehicle that uses a steam engine as a power source. It is called a sea train."
Qi Kang finished speaking...
As expected! Almost all of them looked confused.
As Saikan explained the principles of the steam engine, Luffy clapped his hands.
"I see!" His second gear seemed to be similar to this.
"Qi Kang is amazing, you know so much!"
Facing Chopper's praise, Qi Kang touched his head, full of shyness and embarrassment: "No! Intelligence is the basic skill of a ninja."
When Crayon Xiaokang was enjoying the flattery, an innocent child's voice rang out: "Grandma, there are pirates here!"
Qi Kang was delighted, this triggered the plot!
