Meeting

Sirius certainly couldn't possibly not recognize this man who had suddenly appeared.

A member of the main cast in the original work, and one of Master Tom's two disciples, originally named Katie Flam, now known as Franky.

But speaking of which, has this guy already returned to Water Seven?

If Sirius remembers correctly, Franky returned to Water Seven Mr. Iceburg four years after Thomas's father was executed.

He was hit and thrown into the air while trying to stop the Sea Train carrying Master Tom, suffering severe injuries. He then used scrap metal to transform himself into a cyborg before returning in a different form.

Franky Water Seven, and his Franky Family hadn't even been formed yet.

He had only overheard someone say that people in town were asking about Master Tom.

He naturally rushed over to investigate immediately.

Franky felt very guilty about what had happened to Master Tom.

Because all the weapons he built were used by those bastards in the government, Master Tom was falsely accused of attacking the ships on Enies Lobby.

This has always been a lingering shadow in his heart; he has always felt that it was because of him that his teacher died.

But now he discovers that there seems to be more to the story.

Franky clenched his fists, glaring fiercely at the two CP9 agents like a hyena.

The two agents looked somewhat bewildered. "Who are you? Do we know each other? What's with that expression?"

"What exactly is the reason?"

Franky didn't care about Sirius and his companion at all; so what if they were the legendary Black Wolf and White Wolf?

All he cares about now is how his teacher died!

"What exactly caused Mr. Tom's death?!"

"Etc--"

Jabra suddenly remembered something, and he looked Franky up and down carefully.

This guy cares so much about the Tom, so there must be a deep connection between them.

Although the blue hair and appearance have changed, some similarities can still be vaguely seen.

"You're... Tom's protégé, Katie Flam!!"

"Jabra exclaimed."

Tom had already been declared dead, was the second disciple of Mr. Iceburg.

This guy is still alive! He even made it back to Water Seven!

If Gabra had known this news before meeting Sirius and the other two, he would have been overjoyed.

But it's all meaningless now.

"Master Katie Flam Master Tom's disciple"

Yamato blinked. "Oden seemed to have mentioned him! Blue hair, a child who was adopted by Master Tom all alone!"

"Indeed."

Sirius nodded; Oden had indeed mentioned it.

However, Franky himself probably doesn't have much of an impression of Oden.

It was just a brief encounter, and unlike Oden, he didn't like to keep a diary.

"Answer me honestly!!"

Franky completely disregarded the fact that his identity had been exposed, and went straight up to grab Jabra by the collar, growling angrily.

Jabra was somewhat annoyed.

If it weren't for the fear of the Black Wolf and White Wolf, we would have arrested you long ago and claimed credit for it, okay?

He remained silent.

"Let me guess,"

At this moment, Sirius spoke up, "Legend has it that long, long ago, the shipwrights of the Water Seven built a legendary warship."

The two agents' expressions changed instantly.

Sirius continued, as if he hadn't seen it.

"That ship possesses unparalleled firepower; legend has it that it can destroy an island with just one shot."

People call it Pluton with awe.

Sirius smiled and said, "It is said that the blueprints for that ship are still in the hands of the shipwrights on this island."

"You... you..."

Jabra and the other man turned deathly pale.

How did he know?

How could this guy know such top-secret information, even within the government!

Yamato was also puzzled. Judging from the expressions of the two guys, she knew that Sirius was telling the truth, so she asked, "Sirius, how do you know about this?"

Sirius blinked. "Because it's written on the stone."

"Oh oh!"

Yamato nodded repeatedly, understanding.

The stone in Alabasta records the whereabouts of Pluton.

So it's understandable that the blueprints for Pluton are also recorded in Water Seven!

"Just because of this!!"

Franky punched Jabra hard in the face, sending the man flying back into the wall.

Master Tom died because he wanted to protect this secret!

Those bastards in the government.

"That's enough of the nonsense."

Sirius shook his head.

"I'll take care of them!"

Yamato and lightly stomped his foot on the ground.

An invisible surge of freezing air erupted instantly, and before Jabra and Bruno could say anything, they were both frozen into ice sculptures.

The government is their enemy, so there's no need to show any mercy to government agents.

Only after seeing that both agents had lost their lives did Franky slowly turn around and look at Sirius and the other man.

He took a deep breath and then shouted,

"Bring it on, I'm not afraid of you! The Pluton Blueprints are right here with me, come and get them if you dare!"

Sirius couldn't help but chuckle.

He knew, of course, that the blueprints for Pluton were still with Mr. Iceburg.

"I'm not interested in that thing," Sirius said.

Of course he wasn't interested; he even knew where Pluton was.

Do we still need design drawings?

"We just wanted to see Master Tom," Yamato said with a grin. "Didn't Roger, Rayleigh, and Oden come to see Master Tom back then? We just wanted to talk to him about what happened back then."

Franky was somewhat skeptical. "Roger? The Pirate King? Did they come here?"

Sirius remembered that back then, this guy seemed to be hiding away and withdrawing, and then he met Oden, but he never saw Roger and the others.

"Instead of worrying about us here, I think you'd better think about it carefully,"

Sirius chuckled and said, "Are these the only two agents the government has sent here?"

Franky's expression changed instantly.

Mr. Tom is dead, and I have been considered dead by the government for some time now.

So naturally, the government will only be keeping an eye on that guy!

That guy Mr. Iceburg!

"... Thanks."

Franky finally said thank you and hurriedly ran outside.

"Don't get caught, after all, nobody knows who the agent is."

Sirius smiled and reminded him.

Franky waved his hand and ran off in a flash—it wasn't fun.

What a pity.

The alleyway fell silent. Yamato shook his head regretfully. "I really want to meet Mr. Tom."

"Regret is useless,"

Sirius Yamato's hand. "Come on, Miss Yamato, I'll treat you to dinner. The Water Water Meat on this island is said to be delicious."

"Yes! I want ten servings!"

The alleyway was already packed with people, Kalifa struggled to squeeze in.

"This is--"

Her eyes widened.

Jabra and Bruno are dead, and they froze to death!

Few people on the high seas possess the ability to freeze things!

Etc!

What did those two people who were inquiring about the Tom look like?

After dinner, Sirius and his companion strolled around the city.

This city is very prosperous, so it's also very lively at night.

However, Sirius and his companion didn't stay out for long before an uninvited guest arrived.

Two cloaked men blocked their way.

Sirius raised an eyebrow. "So, Mr. Flam, is there something you need?"

One of the two men was Franky, and the other was a complete stranger, though Sirius could probably guess his identity.

"My name is Mr. Iceburg, may I have a word with you, Mr. Sirius?"
