Chapter 229: Poisonous Fruits

The real core technology of the sea train is not the steam engine, but its track. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although the level of science and technology in the East China Sea is generally still relatively backward, William can know from some limited news that in many places in other seas, even electricity has begun to be popularized, and the scientific and technological level of the navy and the world government will only be higher than the average level of the East China Sea, and it is impossible to be more backward, and judging from the news from Ah Jin, who is in the great voyage, the steam engine is not a great technology for the navy and the world government.

The real amazing technology of the sea train is that it can make a special sound during the journey, so that the track laid on the sea will not be harassed by the sea kings, so that it is safe and worry-free.

In fact, the long track laid on the sea by the sea train should be more vulnerable to the attack of the sea kings because of the span, and once the attack causes damage, the possibility of car destruction and death may be greater than that of ordinary ships.

But in the years that the sea train has been in pass, there has been no incident of a sea king attacking the track, which shows how practical the technology invented by Tom the fish-man in the first place.

This sonic technology, which relies on the collision of trains and tracks to expel marine life, is no less effective than a steam engine in this marine world full of dangerous creatures.

And unlike the steam engine, which is a unique technology for sea trains, there are no similar applications elsewhere.

William, who noticed this at the beginning, sometimes even suspected that it was this technology that led to the invention of sea trains for so many years, and it was still those lines, and the world government had no intention of promoting it.

The world government itself has the technology to cross the windless zone and travel freely in various seas, and according to Ah Jin, the navy has a special kind of warship, which can be protected from the attack of sea kings after being inlaid with sea towers in the bottom of the ship, so as to drive safely in the windless zone.

But Hailou Stone is an extremely precious and rare mineral, and few forces can learn from them to do so, extravagantly wasting Hailou Stone.

Monopolizing this passage technology makes the connection between the four seas and the great shipping route easier to control, and the pirates of the four seas can basically only take the upside-down mountain to the great shipping route, so as not to make the great shipping route, which is already chaotic and difficult to control, become more tricky because of the chaotic influx of pirates from the four seas.

William will definitely go to the Great Voyage, because this is the center of the world, the focus of the world's attention, there are the most Devil Fruits, the most outstanding talents, and it is the highest stage of the world in the era of pirates, how could William miss it.

However, the windless zone is a barrier between the East China Sea and the Great Shipping Route, and although it is possible to pass through the Upside-Down Mountain from the East China Sea to the Great Shipping Route, it becomes inconvenient to return after entering the East China Sea, and it becomes difficult to communicate with each other.

William has worked hard in the East China Sea for many years, and it is impossible for him to leave the foundation here and go to the great voyage alone, in that case, what is the point of what he did in the East China Sea?

Therefore, he has been planning for a long time, how to maintain control of the East China Sea while entering the great shipping route, not allowing the windless zone to become an obstacle to the passage and connection, and turning the East China Sea into his own back garden.

William couldn't learn from the World Government and the Navy to get so many sea building stones for his own ships, so in the end, he included in the plan to abandon the wind, use steam as the driving force, and use sound waves to arm and expel ships like Sea Kings.

As a result, the sea train became a means of transportation that William never forgot because it contained the key technologies he needed.

At the beginning, Bucky took a fancy to it at a glance and was amazed by the design drawing, which was actually this special kind of boat, and Bucky quickly saw that this kind of boat could only solve the two major problems of passing through the windless zone, and how practical it was.

And Esbagu quickly understood.

Before this, it may be because of the blind spot of thinking, the masters and apprentices of Tom's studio have been thinking about how to build sea trains, including steam engines and train track technology, all of which were invented and constructed for the smooth running of sea trains. Neither Fram nor Esbagu would have thought that the technology of expelling the Sea Kings from the sound waves generated by the collision of train tracks would be applied to other ships.

Esbagu did not expect that thousands of miles away in the East China Sea, there would be people who could make ideas that even the designers could not think of without seeing the sea train with their own eyes.

However, this idea is not without the possibility of operation, and Esbagu is actually a little eager to try, and as a good shipbuilder, he also wants to build a ship that can conquer the windless zone that makes people smell and change.

……

When the group arrived at Tom's studio, Chloe and Esbagu discussed a bunch of miscellaneous things such as where everyone lived and lived, but Edmund and Arkin quietly stayed away from the crowd.

After arriving at the corner where there were no outsiders, Edmund took out a few notebooks and a fruit from his bulging arms and gave them to Ah Jin: "William asked me to give it to you, the notes are his personal experience of the Six Styles and the return of life, as well as the cultivation method of Fishman Karate that he recently obtained, as for this fruit......." ”

"Devil Fruit!?" Ah Jin said in surprise.

William's money for this Devil Fruit is almost equal to the bounty he paid for the steam engine.

But even with William's power and financial resources in the East China Sea, he has not been able to scavenge more Devil Fruits in the East China Sea, and so far, except for the still growing furry fruit in the Destiny Square, William has only this one in his hands, which he entrusted to the trusted Edmond and gave it to Ah Jin to eat.

When William and Edmund talked about the formation of the expedition before, they mentioned sending something to Akin, which mainly referred to the Devil Fruit.

"William thinks that you may need this to enhance your strength in the Navy Headquarters," Edmund said, "but he doesn't know what kind of fruit this is, if you have concerns, if you are worried that your ability is not good, it will affect your strength, you can choose not to eat it, William said, if you don't eat it, let me eat it, but ......." ”

“…… I think the fruit is so weird, like it's poisonous," said Edmond jokingly, "and you'd better eat it." ”

When Ah Jin heard this, he didn't shirk it, and directly took the Devil Fruit and bit it down.

The bitter taste and strange taste made Ah Jin grin, and he said vaguely: "If I become weaker after eating the Devil Fruit that is supposed to enhance the ability of the eater, it means that I can't adapt to this era, and I should be abandoned by this era, because there are no useless abilities, only useless users." ”
