Tom, who was sitting behind the desk, raised his head in a daze when he heard Roger's words, he didn't seem to hear what Roger said just now, he plucked his ears in disbelief, and asked Roger:

"You say. What happened to you?! ”

Seeing Tom's look of disbelief, Roger grinned without hesitation:

"I'm terminally ill and I'm going to die."

"I can feel my vitality declining rapidly, I'm afraid, I only have more than a year to live."

Roger said, took another bottle of red wine from the coffee table, opened the cork by himself, and poured two sips of "coo-du-du-du", and the red wine flowed from the corner of Roger's mouth.

After Roger took a few puffs, he put down the bottle, wiped the corners of his mouth, stood up, walked in front of Tom, sat down on the table, looked at Tom's shocked look in disbelief, and comforted Tom in turn:

"Hey! Tom, old friends, don't show such an expression! ”

"Be happy! This is the last time we'll be together! ”

"Don't make a sad face."

Roger was in a good state of mind, patting Tom on the shoulder as he spoke, and then his eyes subconsciously fell on the drawing in front of Tom's desk.

Seeing that there was a seagull logo on the hull on the drawing, he sighed lightly, as if he had found some toy, and immediately became interested and asked curiously:

"Huh?!"

"Is this ship you designed a warship?!"

"Warships of the Navy?!"

"The Navy will actually come to you to design a warship?!"

Tom heard Roger's question, walked out of his shock, did not answer Roger's question, but ejected from the chair with a "poof", grabbed Roger's arms with both hands, and roared:

"Hey! You guy, is this the time to care about this kind of thing?! ”

"What's wrong with you?! Have you seen any other doctors? ”

"I know a very good doctor, just in the capital of seven waters, go, I'll take you to the doctor!"

With that, Tom grabbed Roger's wrist and was about to go out. But Tom had not taken two steps before Roger pulled him back to his desk.

"Don't waste your efforts, Tom."

"Of course I've seen other doctors, but the level of those people is far inferior to Kulokas."

"Do you remember Kulokas? The ship's doctor on my ship, thanks to whom I have been able to survive all these years. ”

"Hahaha!"

"Now, Tom, I've come to terms with that, and you don't have to bother."

"While I still have some time to live, let's catch up on the old days."

"Oh, by the way, tell me what this warship you're working on right now?"

"I'm still curious, will the Navy also ask you to design warships?!"

Roger grabbed Tom with his backhand, pressed Tom back to his seat, and then patted the drawings on the table and asked Tom.

“.”

"You guy, your heart is really big!"

"Why wouldn't a bastard like you live long?"

Tom sat in his chair and stared into Roger's eyes for a long time before he finally reluctantly accepted the reality, raised his head and sighed.

Then he sat up a little straighter and explained to Roger: "Some time ago, a team of navies came to the capital of seven waters, and asked me to design the drawings. ”

"The leader is Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, the hero Karp."

"You know him well, right?!"

Roger heard Karp, nodded, and then laughed, "It's that bastard!" Doesn't that guy have a boat? His warships are also high-level works in the navy, so I shouldn't ask you to design a warship, right?! ”

"Tom, it's not that I look down on your skills! It's just that the technology of the Navy is not weak, it should."

Before Roger could finish speaking, Tom waved his hand and interrupted, "It's not Vice Admiral Karp who wants a warship, he brings a young lieutenant general from the headquarters." ”

"It's the lieutenant general's car."

"It seems to be called Jiguo Yuanyi"

"Listening to their chat, this lieutenant general named Ji Guoyuanyi should have just been promoted not long ago."

"The Navy doesn't seem to have a warship for him."

"And I think it's very strange about this matter, Roger, it just so happens that you are also here, give me a staff officer, do you say that the two lieutenant generals Ji Guoyuan and Karp asked me to design a warship?"

"I have a feeling that their purpose might be that"

Tom didn't get it through, but Roger understood what Tom meant.

"Hades" Roger knew that Hades' drawings were in Tom's hands, and at this time, listening to Tom's analysis, he touched his chin and said in a deep voice. Hearing Roger's words, Tom also nodded solemnly.

Then he glanced down at the drawings on the table, and said with some annoyance: "I don't know what the Navy is looking for me for." ”

"I haven't had a good rest all this time!"

"The blueprint of this warship has only one skeleton. I see that the drawings are about to be handed in. ”

"I'm worried about this! It's not that I don't know how to design warships, I just think that giving the Navy is like building a grave for myself. Roger, do you understand what I'm talking about?! ”

Tom scratched his scalp, a little sad.

"Hehehehehe!"

"Don't worry, Tom, if it were those two of them, the target wouldn't be Hades."

Roger looked at Tom with a sad look on his face and suddenly laughed. Tom looked at Roger inexplicably, puzzled.

"Well, anyway, you don't have to worry about this, they won't be the kind of people who would be interested in Hades."

"Don't worry, this time I was looking for you, I should simply be looking for you to design a warship."

"The Navy promoted Ji Guoyuan to vice admiral, but is it not equipped with warships? Hahahaha, those guys in the navy don't seem to want Jiguo Yuanyi to sail freely on the sea! ”

"World Government. I'm not going to let you get away with it!"

Roger said, a slight light bursting from his pupils. Although Tom didn't know why Roger was so sure that the other party's purpose was not Hades, Tom trusted Roger very much, and when he heard Roger say this, his mood suddenly relaxed a lot.

"Hey, Tom, have you procured all the materials to build that warship?!"

Tom didn't know why Roger suddenly asked this, and he didn't know why the other party was interested in the warship, so he shook his head blankly.

"Take the keel of my Oro Jackson, dismantle it, and use it to build a warship that will succeed the country!"

Seeing Tom shake his head, Roger slammed the table, grinned at the corners of his mouth, and said immediately.

Hearing this, Tom looked at Roger with a puzzled expression, opened his mouth, and was speechless for a while. Tom didn't understand why Roger suddenly made such a decision, even if he felt that he couldn't survive, there was no need to ruin his ship!?

Besides, there are so many members of the Roger Pirates, why don't they entrust the ship to their companions, but dismantle the Oro Jackson and give the precious keel to a navy?!

You know, the keel used by the Auro Jackson is the precious Adam's Treasure Tree!

A pirate, why do this to a navy?!

"Tom, my pirate group has been disbanded, and if the Oro Jackson reappears on the seas, it will be the target of the Navy's pursuit."

"I sailed this time, and I also drove this ship after painting, but I have already been targeted."

"A treasure like the Adam Treasure Tree shouldn't follow me and die with the Roger Pirates!"

"Dismantle my ship, if it is useful, I will use it for the warship that succeeds the country!"

"That young navy has a lot of appetite for me!"

"He's going to be. The back wave that changed the world! ”

"I'm going to bet on the Adam Tree in the New World!"
