Chapter 298: Frankie's Promise
Since the last candid exchange, Smoker has found himself thoroughly accepted by Tom and his gang, and he now eats breakfast, lunch, and even dinner at Tom's house every day.
This was supposed to be a happy thing, but after eating it for three days, Smoker couldn't stand it anymore, and although Aunt Kekeluo's curry rice was delicious, she couldn't stand eating it every day.
Eat water meat curry in the morning, eat water apple curry at noon, and eat water meat curry for dinner, who can stand it, but Tom, Flam, and Iceberg said that it was completely OK.
In desperation, Smoker had no choice but to taste the food of the capital of seven waters, and when it was time to eat, he took the little lada to walk around the island.
Not to mention him, even Little Lada is about to be tormented by the curry flavor.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
Just as Smoker and Little Lada returned to Shipwreck Island from the island with a satisfied expression, they heard a roar from a distance, and without looking, they knew that it was Frankie who was testing his gunboat again.
By the way, although he knows that Frankie's real name is Frank, he will always habitually call the other party Frankie, and Frankie himself has no opinion.
And it is said that the one who originally called him Frankie was the future mayor of the Seven Waters City, Iceberg, as if he thought the name Frank was too strange, so he changed it to Frankie.
"Stupid!"
At this time, as they approached, the roar of the iceberg also came into their ears, "How many times have I followed you, don't make such dangerous things again!" Have you forgotten what almost killed us before!! ”
"Huh?"
Frankie looked at his latest work, Fighting Frankie No. 37, and replied nonchalantly: "Isn't there nothing wrong, and I've decided that as long as there is a new work, I will disassemble the previous one, and there will be no more accidents." ”
Because of Smoker's intervention, Frankie's mentality at this time was completely different from that in the original book in his previous life, but it was a lesson, at least he didn't dare to pile up gunboats anymore.
"How many times do you want me to say it!"
Bingshan's expression was extremely angry, and even his fists were clenched under excitement, "Again and again, again and again to build this kind of battleship, give me enough to stop!" ”
"Don't be nosy there!" Frankie did not show weakness, he was proud of his precious warship, "Do you know that these warships I built can defeat the 100-meter-long Sea Kings alone!" ”
"Because of that...."
Iceberg suppressed his anger slightly, forced himself to calm down, grabbed Frankie's shoulders, and said in a calm tone: "It is precisely because your ship can defeat the Sea Kings that it shows that they are terrible murder weapons to such a degree!" ”
"I'm not going to use it to attack people, I'm just going to use it to deal with the ferocious Sea Kings!"
Frankie doesn't understand why 'Stupid Mountain' always makes a fuss, isn't it a good thing that people who sail have the ability to defend themselves against sea kings and even pirates?
"Listen to me, Frankie! No matter what you think, you, as the maker of the murder weapon, are responsible for its own existence no matter what!! ”
In the end, Iceberg said earnestly, "Don't discredit our Tom's work club anymore......"
"I...."
Just as Frankie continued to argue, a voice full of admiration came from behind him, "Tut-tut, how can such a small gunboat defeat a sea king on its own?" It's amazing! ”
"Lieutenant General Smoker?"
"Navy ....."
Iceberg and Frankie turned their heads to look, but by this time Smoker had already arrived in front of the Battle Frankie 37, and looked at the sailboat, which might only be large enough for two or three people to stand, but with a large number of strangely shaped weapons.
"Frankie, if you were asked to rebuild a warship, how far would you go?"
"Huh?"
"Hah!"
But soon Frankie reacted, patted his chest proudly and said: "If you give me a warship, I can guarantee that it will be transformed into the most powerful warship in the world!" ”
Smoker smiled, he didn't deny this, maybe in terms of the level of shipbuilding, Frankie may not be as good as his master Tom, but if you compare the ability to transform artillery, Frankie may really be the best in the world.
"I heard the conversation between you just now."
At this time, Smoker suddenly changed the topic, "I personally think what Iceberg said makes sense, your talent and ability are extremely dangerous for Tom's Work Club, and even for the entire Seven Waters Capital. ”
Hearing this, Iceberg nodded in agreement, he felt that a normal person could finally understand what he meant, but Frankie was a little unhappy.
"What, are you going to stop me from making weapons too?"
Iceberg pouted, "That's still ......"
"It's not."
But Smoker shook his head and denied, "On the contrary, I hope you can continue to research and manufacture!" ”
"What!"
Bingshan's face instantly darkened, "Lieutenant General Smoker, what do you mean by this?" ”
"It's just not here, it's coming to our navy."
Smoker looked at the stunned French and smiled: "Weapons, like ships, are just things in the end, and they are not good or bad in themselves, but depend on how they are used by the person who controls them." ”
"I'm sure your talent and ability to make weapons will be put to the best in our navy, and you'll be able to study whatever you come up with as much inspiration as you like."
"And our navy uses the high-quality weapons you make to maintain world peace and order at sea, isn't this the best cooperation?"
To be honest, he personally felt that Frankie was more suitable to work for the Navy than Tom, after all, the Navy was, to put it bluntly, essentially an armed group that countered violence with violence.
Therefore, maintaining superiority in force is the greatest goal that the navy needs to pursue in the past, present, and future.
In this world, or in any other world, if a country does not have the armed forces of the army, there is no need to talk about anything else.
Tom's personality and shipbuilding style are indeed very different from their navy, but it's still very good to let him be in charge of building the warship itself.
What better match could there be for the world's number one shipwright to build the warship itself and then place a powerful weapon made by Frankie on it?
"Indeed."
Iceberg considered Smoker's words for a moment, and after a moment had to admit that it made sense, "Benki's ability to work for the Navy is the best." ”
"How's that, Frankie." Smoker stretched out his right hand and invited, "When Mr. Tom's injury is healed, do you want to go to Marlene Fando together?" ”
"This ....."
But Frankie was a little hesitant, he really hadn't thought about going to the Navy to build ships before, but the next second he was moved by Smoker's words.
"I can give you the freedom to view the warship, including the weapon system, and if you join the navy, then in the future, as long as you have a new weapon invention, I can call the shots and try it out on my fleet first!"
"Okay, I promise!"
No matter what he thought about it, Frankie didn't think it hurt to make weapons for the navy, except for the sadness of parting with 'Stupid Mountain' and Cocoro.
Of course, there is also a reason why Smoker made him change his opinion of the navy so much, otherwise he would not have agreed to join the navy so easily.
"Smack!"
Smoker clapped his palms in displeasure, "Great, it seems that from now on, our navy will no longer have to worry about weapons!" ”
"Of course, I'm super-French!! :
At this time, Frankie, who was only wearing blue swimming trunks, made a classic arm clamping motion, which made Smoker's laughter stop abruptly, and a black line appeared on his face.
He didn't expect that Frankie's action would be so embarrassing from a realistic point of view, it was really... I can't appreciate it.
"Forget it, there is one more important thing to do next, I hope everything goes well~"
Smoker looked at Frankie speechlessly, and sighed in his heart.
