Chapter 102: Cargo Ships

"Boat?"

When Xia Qiu heard this request, she was slightly stunned and looked at Robin, not knowing why she did this.

"To be exact, I need some items, and you can only operate in the ocean, so I need you to bring a cargo ship."

Robin explains: "The planks can be used to build, and there are a lot of supplies in the ship, usually there are beds, bedding, clothes, drinks, food, chopsticks, pots and basins, condiments, and some tools. ”

"I need these things to survive. As far as clothes are concerned, you can't let me wear only this one. In addition, if you drink water and only drink fresh water, you may get sick, so it is better to drink it after heating and disinfection. Robin said with a smile.

"I see."

Xia Qiu nodded, she really lacked a lot of things to survive and ensure basic living needs.

Robin asked, "So can you promise me?" ”

"Yes, yes."

Xia Qiu nodded, in exchange, this condition is not too much.

"That's good." Robin smiled with satisfaction, and then said, "You can sink the ship, so naturally you don't have to worry about me leaving through the ship." ”

Speaking of this, Robin paused and said, "If you want a ship, you can go to Alabastan, where the port city has many cargo ships, and you can bring one." ”

"Okay."

Xia Qiu nodded and agreed.

But he did not leave immediately, but waited until night, after nightfall, and then set out for Alabastan.

Just in time to eat the crocodile and bring back a boat.

Thinking like this, Xia Qiu went to Alabastan, spent more than an hour, reached the island of Shengting, went directly into the river, and hunted the crocodiles.

Although Xia Qiu came two or three times, some F crocodiles knew about Xia Qiu's existence, but there were many F crocodiles in the river, five or six hundred, and he only attacked the outermost F crocodile, and most of the F crocodiles did not know about his existence.

Secondly, don't worry even if you know it.

They spend most of their time in the water every day, and there are very few lakes in Alabastan, especially in recent years, where there is very little water except for rainy areas.

Their habitat is in this river, and they spend most of their time in it.

And the summer and autumn only come once in two days, once only a few minutes, eat the crocodile and run, most of the rest of the time is safe.

They don't know when summer and autumn will come, and naturally they don't know when to go to the shore to take shelter.

The way Xia and Autumn attacked determined that all crocodiles other than the target would not be attacked, so they would not be forced to change their living environment.

So Xia Qiu is not worried that they will leave the river.

Xia Qiu entered the river, bit a crocodile, slowly left, and after eating it, began to look for ships in the harbor.

His location is the coastal port of the rape flower market, on the right side of the river, and the largest port in Alabastan.

Most of the ships dock here.

Alabastan, on the other hand, has a large desert and is short of supplies, many of which need to be transported from other places, and there are many ships that travel here every day.

Now in the harbor, there are dozens of ships docked here.

"It can't be too big."

Xia Qiu looked at these ships, his strength was huge, but if he wanted to sail such a long distance at sea, he needed to think about it.

Forty meters under, not too big.

Xia Qiu removed several large ships and searched for a ship about thirty meters away.

It must be a cargo ship, preferably with some cargo still in stock.

Xia Qiu looked for cargo ships, originally distinguished by whether there were guns or not, but found that all ships had cannon muzzles, Xia Qiu thought that this was a great route, and the sea was very dangerous, so forget it.

So Xia Qiu took the initiative to look for a fishing crossbow, a giant sea fish on the great route, which was much more threatening than pirates.

The second is the waterline, a ship of the same size, with a large waterline, must be loaded with more cargo.

That's it.

Xia Qiu found a cargo ship more than thirty meters long with a deep waterline.

"Since there are still goods on board, there must be people inside, and I can't bring people back."

Xia Qiu frowned, suddenly rushed over, came to the bottom of the boat, put his head against the bottom of the boat, and then slowly pushed over.

"The ship is tilting, what's going on?"

There was a noise on the ship, and figures appeared on the side of the ship.

Boom, boom.

The hull of the ship shook violently, and it shook constantly.

"Get off the boat first."

The people on the boat immediately began to disembark, and there were five or six of them, and when they came to the shore, they looked at the water in bewilderment.

And after Xia Qiu waited for them to come down, he was going to push the boat out, but he saw the anchor.

The huge anchor sank to the bottom of the harbor, and a corner smashed into the earth.

The function of the anchor is to stabilize the hull of the ship and prevent it from being swept away by the waves.

The anchor is at the bow of the ship, and dragging it with the anchor is easier than holding it, and you can better grasp the bearing.

So Xia Qiu swam over, dragged the anchor out, and bit it in his mouth.

The anchor is a naval anchor, in the shape of a double hook, and it is also the most commonly used type of anchor, and after being bitten, Xia Qiu used the teeth of the front row to jam the anchor.

Then he rushed into the distance.

Bang la blah.

The chain was straightened, but when it was straightened, it snapped to a halt, and the ship trembled, but it did not move.

"Got a cable?"

Xia Qiu guessed that the boat was tied to the shore by a cable, so he went backwards and rushed out again, using eight points of strength.

Rumble.

The anchor was straightened, and with a bang, the hull shook violently, and the cable broke little by little, but not completely broken.

"What the hell is going on?"

On the shore, the crew saw this scene in bewilderment.

And underwater, Xia Qiu fell back again and continued to rush forward, this time using all his strength.

Rumble.

This time, the cable broke directly, and the bow of the ship was pulled, and under Xia Qiu's movements, it slowly drove into the distance.

"Our ship." The crew shouted loudly.

"There's something underwater, let's go into the water and see." A crew member jumped overboard and tried to get closer.

But the ship got faster and faster, and slowly left the place.

The weight of the hull is enormous, but on the water, only a relatively low force is required to pull.

For example, a huge cargo ship enters and exits the dock, fearing that the power of the propeller will disturb the surrounding waters and make the current unstable, so it is pulled by a tugboat.

And the power of Xia and Autumn is huge, and a boat of forty or fifty meters can move forward slightly with its sails pulled up.

Not to mention just pulling forward.

Xia Qiu dragged the boat in the direction of the island, he was exposed to the water, pulling forward, and the speed remained at a speed of seven or eight knots per hour.

When summer and autumn came, it was about twenty knots per hour, and it took an hour and a half to reach Alabastan.

In the case of tugboats, it takes at least four hours.

On top of that, it takes more time to avoid the wind and waves and eat in the sea.

So it wasn't until the next morning that Xia Qiu returned to the island.

Rumble.

The hull of the ship hit the shore with a loud bang.

"Well, what's wrong?"

Robin woke up in the room, sat up and stretched, slowly straightened up, got up from the boredom, pushed open the door and walked out of the room barefoot.

She walked on two long legs towards the shore, and as soon as she stepped out of the woods, her figure froze.

A huge ship was docked on the shore, and not far away, the blackfish poked its head out of the water, smiling at him.

"It's been delivered so quickly, and it's still such a big cargo ship."

Robin was a little surprised and walked over quickly.
