[Stay with Esdeath for a month and gain 1 bond point]
After nearly a month of busy work on the mission of exterminating the pirate group, the four Erics returned to the future country of Winter Island near the end of the month.
"It's really unbearable to go from the warm climate of the summer island to the freezing temperatures of the winter island." Eric still misses those cool-dressed young ladies with devilish figures and angelic faces on the beach.
"Ara, I think you are reluctant to let go of those young ladies in swimsuits." Kuang San, who has a superior IQ, could tell at a glance that Eric's words were not sincere.
"No, I can't even see how you look in your swimsuits. How could you possibly see other people?" Eric, who had realized what he was doing, quickly denied it, saying that he would be a fool to admit it.
Chitong, who is usually very silent, came out to reveal his shortcomings at this time: "He spends about half of the time looking at our swimsuits, and the other half of the time peeking at other women's swimsuits. When watching us, most of his eyes are focused on Esdeath." My breasts, my thighs, and Kurumi’s legs and feet...well."
"Wait a minute!" If Chi Tong continued to speak, Eric would be stripped naked. In order to stop Chi Tong from speaking, Eric covered Chi Tong's mouth.
"Ara, it looks like I've won." Kuang San, who was being watched in two different positions, had a winner's smile on his face.
"Hmph, that's impossible, don't you think so, Eric?" Esdeath clamped Eric's head with his hands and showed his ice smile again.
"I like all the parts of your body the most! Stop comparing and hitting!"
"Hateful~ You guys are finally back." Miss Porchi, who lost to Eric in the David battle, came up to greet him.
"Huh~" Uncle Li Zitou, who smokes five packs a day, exhaled a puff of smoke, "Miss Bolqi is very worried about you, Captain."
"Disgusting~uncle!"
"Hahaha, we brought you gifts. Are Da Vinci and Chiron still busy?"
"Come on, captain brother-in-law. I didn't expect you to be quite punctual."
"Captain, judging from the domineering feeling, you have been a little slack in your recent training."
"Well..." Eric was speechless. Although it was his mission to destroy the pirates, most of the work was done by Kurumi Tokisaki and Esdeath, leaving Eric no chance to take action. Not to mention that on Summer Island, with the temptation of beautiful scenery, Eric's hidden salty fish attribute took effect and he was lazy for several days.
"Well, it's really outrageous. I will train him well in the future. You are the man who wants to climb to the top of the world with me, how can you be so outrageous." Esdeath's words made Eric sweat and panic. be opposed to.
"No... no need. I think Teacher Chiron's teachings are good and suitable for me."
"I think it's better to have a strong person to look after the captain all the time. This position belongs to Esdeath." Unexpectedly, even the kind-hearted Chiron betrayed the captain. 'I trust you so much in vain! I didn’t expect you, Chiron, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to be like this! '
"Ara, I will also do my part to help Eric become stronger. Just leave the training of seeing and hearing Haki to me."
In an instant, Eric's surrounding net formed.
…
"Now, this is your gift." The dejected Eric distributed the gifts he bought to everyone. Everyone stayed on the ice and snowy winter island, and they had enough hard work.
"Oh! This is a unique creature in this world, a telephone bug! Or an image bug, a fax bug... Thank you very much, Captain."
"Please don't dissect them. After all, there was a guy (a doctoral student) who killed a few snails by spreading salt and was arrested and fined. I'm afraid some animal protection organizations will come after you."
"Huh?" Da Vinci looked confused.
"Hate~ Such beautiful clothes and accessories, thank you Captain."
"Well, thank you Sister Chitong. She remembered your preferences and various body data so that she could buy it for you... Don't be shy, I'm only responsible for paying and don't know your measurements! You do this to me I’m so embarrassed to get up!”
“Boy, what is this electronic cigarette?”
"Ah, this cigarette is less harmful than ordinary cigarettes, but it is still harmful. There is also an annual physical examination card. I hope that uncle can get physical examinations frequently."
"..." Kulikai had a "#" on his forehead and said nothing. Oh, I'm so heartwarming.
"Captain, are you giving me the "Make Hair More Beautiful" conditioner cream and the book "100 Ways to Care for Your Horse's Coat"?
"Hmm, I see that Chiron-sensei's hair and ponytail are relatively long, so I chose these two gifts, and I can't give Chiron-sensei what he really wants (immortality). I hope the teacher likes it. "
"..." Chiron looked at the gift silently and thanked him: "Thank you, Captain. If you want to send gifts in the future, let me know in advance and I will tell you what I need."
Others on the periphery were discussing in low voices:
"As expected of a captain, Chiron, who has such a gentle personality, was left speechless."
"But it can also be seen that the captain really wants to prepare gifts for the crew, but there are a few gifts that are not in line with their wishes."
"Eric who is a little confused is so cute~ah! I really want to hold Eric to sleep."
"Ara, you'd better hold the tortured cold corpse to sleep forever."
…
After giving "friendly" gifts, Leonardo da Vinci gathered everyone together and explained:
"After a month of experiments, I used my ability to swallow fruits to combine almost all the metals I could get once, or in twos, or in threes, etc., and came up with more than 3,000 alloys, including An alloy with various advantages such as super hardness, strong toughness, strong corrosion resistance, lightness and strength.”
"There is even a special alloy called shape memory alloy! I named it 'Da Vinci Memory Alloy'!"
When Eric heard this, he thought to himself: 'Is this the new alloy made by Wapol? '
"Thanks to these alloys and the Vegapunk design here, Chiron and I also drew the best-performing ship we can design so far! Not only does it have solid defense performance and reconnaissance capabilities, It also has a super long range and super firepower output, as well as a speed and control that the sail battleship cannot match!"
"The only drawback is..."
"It requires a lot of funds, right? How much is needed?"
Eric understood that such an excellent ship must have cost enough to build, and you get what you pay for. Except for the deception of some sellers, the price generally also represents the quality of the item.
"Ten...billion Baileys?" Leonardo da Vinci said softly and in an uncertain voice.
"..." Everyone was silent for a while. One billion is already an astronomical figure. Most ships are around tens of millions. The range and firepower of the artillery on the navy's warships are far greater than those on the pirate ships. The size of the warships is also It is larger than most pirate ships and cost only 100 million beli.
"If you want to build this ship, it is best to build it according to the best standards, so that it can be completed in one step. Leonardo da Vinci and I calculated the material cost and found that it would cost almost one billion Baileys."
"...This doesn't include labor costs. How big is the ship you designed?" Captain Eric, whose IQ is occasionally online, asked.
"The ship is 210 meters long and 37 meters wide at its widest point..."
"Okay, I understand." Eric didn't wait for Da Vinci to finish speaking and understood that the size of this battleship could not be built by just a few people in a short time.
"Let's go to the capital of seven waters..." In order to build the ship of dreams.
