Chapter 491: Live
The City of Seven Waters, Tom's Office. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
There was a snort, and Tom was still asleep with a robe draped over his body.
Luo Chen sat on the chair next to him, waiting quietly, he had picked up the notes that Tom had sat down and was looking through them at the moment. The notebook is thick, the pages are scribbled, and there are all sorts of line illustrations and formulas in between.
Luo Chen couldn't read the things in the notebook, but that didn't prevent him from understanding Tom's efforts.
This notebook is about five centimeters thick, and each page is very crowded, so it can be seen that the owner of the notebook is a very thrifty person. And there were more than twenty such books on Tom's desk, piled up in two high hills.
It's unimaginable that Tom made it all by himself. But the same handwriting proves this conclusion.
"What a respectable man. ”
Luo Chen sighed silently.
Everyone who is successful or famous, has put in unimaginable efforts from others. This sentence is absolutely reasonable. You can see it from these Tom's notebooks.
He also heard the fight between Jason and the others, but he didn't care. On this island, he was not worried that the navy would start a war indiscriminately. Compared with the pirates, the navy is still a positive person in the end, and it is the side that protects the people. As long as it's here, there's no such big action.
Gradually, time was waiting for night.
At that moment, Tom shuddered slightly and raised his head.
"Uh~~"
Raising his hands, Tom stretched his waist, his face looked much better after a good night's sleep, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
"Mr. Tom. ”
Luo Chen smiled lightly.
"Luo Chen. ”
Seeing Luo Chen again, Tom was pleasantly surprised, and his stretched hand was immediately retracted.
"Why are you here?"
"Surprise visit, I hope Mr. Tom doesn't mind my interruption. ”
Luo Chen said with a smile.
The two have long been good friends, and they are not so strange to each other, and they are in a good mood when they meet again.
"Of course not, I'm really surprised to see you again before I die. ”
Tom said with a smile.
"Dead?"
Luo Chen wondered, Tom's body didn't look like he was about to die.
"The sea train has been built, the general framework is no problem, as long as some minor problems are solved, it can be operated. ”
Tom said.
Luo Chen was shocked, he didn't expect the other party to build a train to the sea so quickly, according to the original book, it would take at least ten years or so.
"Because of your ship, I was inspired during the construction process, and I tried it, but I didn't expect the idea to be basically correct, so I built it all the way. ”
Tom explained.
"So, I hurt Mr. Tom. ”
Luo Chen said apologetically.
"Hehe, Luo Chen, this is my dream. Isn't it a kind of romance for a man to die for his dreams?"
"An old man like me should have such a romance, shouldn't he?"
Tom burst out laughing.
"You have a point. ”
Luo Chen agreed, when he came to this world, he didn't understand the so-called dreams, nor did he understand how far a person can achieve his dreams. But when he is in this world, in this era, he knows what dreams mean to men and warriors.
It's something that can be pursued for a lifetime! It's nothing, it's ethereal, but it's real!
Compared with the previous life, people who have been corrupted by capital and money, people in this world may live more fully. The only difference is that one gets physical pleasure and the other gets spiritual satisfaction.
Of course, none of this is in conflict, it can only be said that everyone has their own pursuits.
Tom admired his dedication to his dreams, but he didn't come to support the other party's death.
Therefore, he put away his smile and his expression became serious.
"But Mr. Tom, don't you think that it is irresponsible for you to die after you have fulfilled your dream?"
"Or do you really think it's a crime to build a boat for my brother?"
Two sentences made Tom's face change immediately, and he asked in a deep voice.
"Luo Chen, what do you want to do this time?"
Luo Chen smiled: "My ship is in Aku Ragana, and it has suffered some turbulence and needs to be repaired. “
"And this kind of repair, I believe only you can complete. ”
"The Logan is broken?"
Tom changed color, and he knew very well how strong the boat he had built himself was. It can be said that the Logan, as a ship that can compete with Hades, has reached the extreme in all aspects of its performance, and it is impossible to be damaged at all.
But then, he reacted.
"What? You said in Aku Araghana was the previous time?!"
Tom asked, with a look of shock on his face.
"Yes, it was this tsunami that damaged the Logan. ”
Luo Chen said painfully.
"You've survived Aku Ragana, oh my God!"
Tom said loudly.
In his opinion, Aku Aragna is a disaster of nature, and it is not at all something that humans can compete with. Especially the recent one, even if Yu Wei hit the capital of seven waters, it also caused the city to suffer a huge impact. Its attack power is comparable to the most powerful in so many years.
"Only you can repair the Logan, so this time I'm here for a purpose other than asking you to help fix it. ”
Luo Chen said in a deep voice.
I spared a lot of circles, and finally got back to the point.
"What?"
Tom wondered.
"Before I do that, I want to ask you a question, please be sure to tell me the correct answer. ”
Luo Chen looked Tom in the eye and said.
Tom nodded and motioned for Luo Chen to ask.
"Do you really want to die? ”
"Do you want to live?"
With serious words, looking at Luo Chen's oppressive eyes, Tom was actually a little nervous at this moment.
To die or to live? It's nonsense for anyone, but it's a hard choice for him.
"Die with a crime, or go to be a pirate with a fulfilled dream!"
"Go and be a crew member of One Piece!"
Luo Chen's words were sonorous and powerful.
Tom's whole body was shaken, and a thousand thoughts welled up in his heart.
If there is power, no one wants to live cowardly. No one wants to die if they can live. Even the carp has the instinct to jump over the dragon gate!
And the human instinct is to live!
"Mr. Tom, the sea train is complete, but the Logan, you are still needed!"
Another sentence struck Tom's heart hard, making him hesitate.
After a long time, Tom sighed.
"Luo Chen, I'm already old, I will only be a drag on you. ”
This is his true words, he is old, he can't withstand the wind and waves of the sea, and he doesn't want to be a burden to others.
