Chapter 077: Liftoff
Chapter 077 lifts off
Ace was the central figure in this liftoff.
It is precisely because of his existence that Leo and they did not arrange any fuel - otherwise with the current fuel technology, finding reliable fuel first is a big problem.
Modern hot air balloons use methane or liquefied gas, and before then kerosene.
Now Leo and they can find kerosene, it's good, but in Leo's judgment, the kerosene in the One Piece world should not be able to bring up the hot air balloon - the energy consumption ratio is too low, the load of the hot air balloon is already limited, and it is more difficult to carry more people if you have to bring a large amount of kerosene up.
And now Ace is only one hundred and twenty pounds, and he can reach zero weight when he is elementalized, so that he can not only provide sufficient firepower, but even make another person in the basket.
All three experimental balloons have now been set up in the open space.
The three baskets, all made of rattan, were so large that a man of five meters tall like William could sit two, while others of average size could sit six or seven.
The four corners of the basket were tied with thick cables, which were originally used to tie the boats, which were thick and long, and were used to fight against the wind and waves, but now they had to fight against the currents?
In fact, most of the wind and waves are caused by air currents except for ocean currents, and hot air balloons can only rely on air currents to move forward, so a navigator is crucial.
In fact, the Golden Lion Shiji, who has the ability to flutter fruits, can make the island fly freely in the sky, and the person who faces the huge weather problem will also change color.
It's actually a common-sense question: the more groundless something is in the sky, the more likely it is to be destroyed by bad weather, but it's also a matter of intelligence: why would you risk being destroyed rather than lowering an island to shelter from a storm?
Even sailboats know how to put their sails in the midst of storms, but the golden lion floating in the sky doesn't know how to hide from the rain.
Maybe it really had something to do with the rudder stuck in his head.
Ace moved his hands and feet, and surrounded the cadres.
It can be said that Leo's miraculous performance has allowed him to push this thing almost unconditionally.
But on the other hand, if he fails this time, his prestige will be greatly diminished in front of the new captives and the future revolutionary army.
"Watch your fire, be focused, be strong, but don't ignite anything next to it, you know?"
Leo said to Ace.
Most of the natural Devil Fruit abilities are not able to control the elementalization freely from the beginning.
For example, after Sabo's domineering spirit has been practiced to the mastery level, he has not achieved free elementalization in one bite, but just played Ace's symbolic move: Fire Fist.
It can be said that even if it is a natural Devil Fruit, if you want to be free and easy to elementalize, you must go through a long period of training.
Now Ace has been able to freely control the release of flames after five days of training - his brother Luffy has had this kind of situation before that he can't control his ability, which is manifested in his skin or arms unconsciously stretched or tightened.
But after more than ten years of training, Luffy has grown enough in this area, his strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, and after the accumulation of the power of the eraser, it is not a joke to kill a manatee with one punch.
Ace had this situation before, and his body would often be on fire, and due to the problem of judgment, he would even burn his clothes.
Ace had spent most of the previous four days training on his own, and ordinary people approached him either dead or injured.
From this point of view, the burning fruit is worthy of the powerful destructive power of the natural system.
Yes, it's you who scold, the smoke fruit, the swamp fruit, and the snow and snow fruit!
Now, he could finally stand on his feet in the rattan basket with his feet in peace, and next to Sandasnia, Marigorud and William lifted the ball up, which was a no-brainer for them, despite the steel bones inside.
At this time, the hot air balloon was still pulling, mainly because Ace began to ignite after they held it up.
His hands were combined, like a turtle sect qigong, and he began to breathe fire at the hole that could fit into three of his (it is normal to be able to seat seven or eight people, and three of his big holes). )
At first, the flames were relatively small, but then his hands turned into raging fires, like inflatable balloons, and the deflated hot air balloon began to slowly expand.
"Oh~!!" The onlookers screamed in surprise, they knew that there was such a thing as a balloon, but after blowing into the balloon, the balloon could not fly.
Ordinary balloons are inflated, and if you want to fly after sealing the mouth, it must be hydrogen, and special hydrogen balloons can even fly to the troposphere.
But the reason why a hot air balloon needs the fuel below to constantly heat the air is that it is indeed a simple principle of using [updraft].
And as long as there is air, as long as there is heat, it can take off.
The hot air balloon immediately stood in the eyes of the people of the town like a big-headed doll.
The merchants looked at the thing eagerly, and were clearly already thinking about how much danger they could avoid by doing business with it.
And the eyes of other ordinary people are also full of longing, and they also want to go up to the sky to see how the scenery of this world will be different.
As the hot air balloon slowly floated up, everyone's "oh" continued to get louder.
Most of the people in this world are dirt buns.
Even the empress covered her mouth in surprise, looking at the rising hot air balloon, she was completely shocked.
Don't you want to go to heaven when you are the girls of Nine Snake Island?
As long as you live, there is no one who doesn't want to fly.
Do you think you know the joy of the sky? You can't imagine the joy that the sky can bring you.
Seeing that the rattan frame was almost off the ground, Ace tried harder, and his hands even turned into flame-like shapes, smelling like a gas stove.
A large amount of blue spray flames were poured into the hot air balloon almost regardless of firepower, heating the air inside so hot that it was almost boiling, the hot air balloon was getting higher and higher, and slowly it had already engaged William and them, and gradually left the ground six or seven meters away, if it wasn't for the thick cable firmly fixed to the ground, I am afraid that the hot air balloon would take off directly in the next second!
Wow! The entire town of Magic Valley burst into cheers.
PS: Deeply mourn the martyrs and the people who died in this epidemic.
PS1: Again, we weren't born in a peaceful era, we were just born in a powerful country. The son is not ugly, the dog is not poor, let's build it together!
